The proclamation was received with great rejoicing by the Japanese. The senate bill cuts the MoKinley bill down 30 per cent. Down with the traitors in the senate and keep the ball rolling for tariff reform. A Washington correspondent to Globe Democrat says Mr. Carlisle has resigned, and that the president das offered the portfolio to Mr. Wil- son. J.B. McCullough, editor of the Globe-Democrat, is not a democrat. In a card in the Sunday Mirror, he states over his signature that he has been a republican from boyhood. Tennessee gives an increased dem- ocratic majority over 1892, and the populists are crying fraud. We guess if the state was to give a Tex- as majority, the same old cry of fraud would bob up just the same. —<—_—<—_——__—_— The senate bill cuts the McKinley bill down 30 per cent.

But it is so far superior to the laws now on our national statute booke, placed there by a Republican con gress, that a comparison makes the present measure appear all that the most ardent tariff reformer could ask at one time This measure will save millions of dollars to the people, and is but a step in the direction which the democratic party will go if retained in power. The democrats of their respective states will surely cail to account those senators who have betrayed their party pledges, have defeated the will of the people who elected them, and have sold their honor and manhood to corporate greed. They should be relegated to private life and their names dishonored by their infamous acts. On the other hand those devoted patriots, and unselfish statesmen, who labored so long and earnestly to accomplish all that was possible for their people and disputed every point to gain concessions from those who should have stood shoulder to shoulder and demanded all we say that to these men and senators all honor should be given instead of reproaches for not accomplishing more. The democratic house showed by its voice and vote that it was anxious to redeem every pledge made the people, even to the smallest detail, will do and further shows what the party when it has weeded out the traitors and gained full control. NO OAUSE FOR DEBATE. A. B. Francisco, populist nominee for Congress, is just spoiling for an opportunity to meet Judge DeAr mond on the stump. If Mr. Francisco is honest iu his political professions we fail to see wherein would come grounds for debate. Does he pretend to say that he in the hollow of his hand, and the} could better voice the sentiment of sequence we look for corn to sell at a fancy price. Already feeders are flocking to this country to make arrangements for their herds and to engage corn. Nearly every mail bring inquiries of this nature and some become uneasy and telegraph to know at what price} corn can be secured. This is a very | hard question to auswer, and as the) farmers want the highest price they | can get for their corn, they will probably be shy of optioning it un- states. | We look for a large immigration | | SS |pared toembrace their opportuni-}ou the 3100 ties and reap rich harvest. | May eyery good citizen of Graud old Bates prosper and grow fat is our ardent wish The new paper at Rich Hil], we} are informed, was started by the| populist candidates and is to be) nourished by the miner’s union. The new paper has no office of its own, and | is printed by the Tribune. Under | these circumstances it is of course merely a campaign dodger and will | be snuffed out with the party in November. Aside from this it is a) black eye to editor Atkeson, and| is a virtual notification by the can- didates that they have no confidence in his leadership or ability as a) man and that some-| thing had to be done that the popu- list party might have newpaper rep- resentation in the county during the eampxizn. Poor Atkeson, he has stood by all the new parties from tad-poleism to the Omaha platform. He has been a candidate at every election aud on every ticket.
