Tin: Mcliinloy prices are making Republican votes.
WHERE are those high prices predicted as the result of the McKinley law? Will anv Democrat answer?
Tin: removal of the embargo by Germany on American pork will open up markets for 810,000,000 or £12,000,000 for our farmers.
BLACK frost killed a little corn in Iowa last week but otherwise the Democrats have received no encouragement in their campaign.
AxTEii, tho stallion of Terr© Haute, which promised to be an issue in the next campaign, has been assessed at §15,000, and he will now probably drop "out of sight."
Now is tho timo of the county fair, with its cattle 6hows, trotting matches, agricultural and mechanical exhibitions, and crowds of farmers, happy that this is the farmer's year of years—in America.
lineEII Q. MILLS, the free trade phonograph of tho lono star State, is in Ohio scattering "Texas northers" broadcast among the Democratic prospects. The Republican majority is increased 500 votes every time words llow from his funnel.
DOKINO the past month the American farmers realized an average of S3,000,000 a day for wheat shipped to Europe. It doesn't look very much like the farmers are going to the demnition ibow-wows as our Alliance friends would have us believe.
WITH their 1,200,000 bushels of wheat and their 2,500,000 bushels of corn the farmers of Montgomery county have reason to rejoice and bo glad. They will come to the fair this year thankful that .they live in this goodly land, a land tlii't indeed {lows witlj milk and honey.
.'MANX' of tho Democrats of the east do Hoi favor the 75 cenf, dollar. They will have to stand by it though as the next Democratic convention will adopt it for a platform. There is not as much room on it. hov ever, as there is upon the 100 cent Republican dollar, and the Democratic vote will drop off about a "quarter.
THE contract having been made to construct tho pipe line for conveying natural gas to this city it is reasonably safe to say that the people will be in full enjoyment of the convenient fuel within sixty days, or by the first of December at farthest. It is the intention of the contractors to begin work at once and push it with vigor until it is completed.
THE New York Eveniny Post, which seldom says a good word about anything Republican, declares that President Harrison's Albany speech promising a veto for any free coinage bill that would come to him, has turned the bus iness tido in this country and is bring mg on financial prosperity. This is the way all honest and competent authorities look at tho matter.
THE Indiauapolis
Xeic.s is the most
violent free-trade paper in Indiana, yet it says: "The outlook for a great fall trade was never brighter in any year than it is now, nor in any country, perhaps than it is with us. Unless all signs fail it will be the largest in volume and most remunerative in return of any in many years."
This does not indicate that the in famousMcKinley bill has yet produced the dreadful calamities the News predicted it would. T,
THE volume of money in circulation now is §1,500,007,555, or S2!3,15 per capita. During the war, or in 1802, it was but SI 0.23 per capita. The circulation was increased last year $70,000,000. This was done under our present.silver law which en-
ables the government to issue notes upon four and a half million ounces por month. This is a healthy increase of the currency and keeps every dollar issued on an equality with every other dol ar of whatever kind.
THE EMBARGO REMOVED. Ulie removal of the embargo against American meat products by tho German government is another feather in the cap of the administration of President Harrison. Eleven years ago Germany placed an embargo on American pork for tho alleged reason that it was diseased. All efforts to have the embargo removed proved unavailing until the last Congress passed a bill which was enacted into law providing for a most rigid inspection of all the American hog intended foi export. Through the unceasing efforts of President Harrison and Hon. William Walter Phelps, theAmerican minister at Berlin, an arrangement has been concluded whereby Germany agrees to remove the embargo, and thus open up an enlarged market which will greatly benefit our farmers. Had it not been for the reciprocity feature of tho McKinley law, even with our inspection provisions, the United States would have boen powerless to have had the embargo removed. The reciprocity provisions of the new tariff law, however, placed the United States in a porition where it would command respect and fair treatment. There is every rea.-on to believe that France will follow the example of Germany before the end of the present year, and the markets for American pork will be correspondingly enlarged. The achievements of tho present administration in behalf of our farmers have no parallel in tho history of the Government, and all the sand throwing of
Democratic newspapers to blind the people will avail but little.
"GOOD OLD TIMES."
THE Toledo Blade makes a comparison of the prices in tho "good old days" and the prices of to-day on calico and sugar, two articles that tho farmers buy, and butter and beef, two articles that the farmers sell: "Our fathers of a hundred years ago paid 58 cents for a yard of calico in 1830 it was worth 29 cents in 1800, 11 cents in 1891, 5 cents. Let us make the same comparison regarding tho prices of sugar. In 1790, it cost 18.V cents a pound for a cheap brown grade, such as nobody uses now in 18130,'it cost 15 cents a pound in 18(50, 11 cents in 189], 5A- cents for the best granulated sugar. Take now something that the farmers sell in place of what they buy: In 1870, butter sold in Massachusetts at 11 cents a pound in 1830, at 18 cents a pound in 18(50, at 26 cents a pound: in 1891, 30 to 35 cents a pound. Take another instance, that of dressed beef: In Massachusetts, in the year 1790, it sold at 3A cents a pound in 1830, at 7A- cents in 1860, at 12 cents in 1891, 12 to 18 cents. Consider these facts when the free traders talk about the "good old days," when we had no manufactories, when our entire country was devoted to agriculture, and the number of those engaged in other occupations formed but a small percentage of the population."
THE TARIFF IS A TAX-ON THE CANADIAN. Tho Rockville Republican relates the following which shows that the "tariff is a tax"—on the Canadian:
A while back the Hon. James T. Johnston was in Canada and while on the train fell in with a Canadian farmer, who was cursing loud and long the McKinley tariff. "Why," said Johnston, "what are you kicking about? The Democrats in our country say tho consumer pays tho tariff and that it makes no difference to you fellows who sell to us." "Tho it don't!" said the Canuck "When I take my barley across the line to sell it I pay 20 cents a bushel tariff on it. While the American farmer gets 80 cents a bushel I get 60 cents. I think I know who pays it. Blank blank the blanketv blank McKinley law." "Well, don't get excited my friend.
Our Democratic brothers know that the consumer pays it. They all say so and they try to make us Republicans think so, too." •!*", "They are all liars then, for I know who pays it. I pay it." juiet chuckle and
Uncle Jim gave a turned the subject.
THE Governor of Tennessee called a special session of the Legislation for the express purpose of abolishing the convict lease system, a system that was responsible for the recent disturbance about Briceville. The proposition, however, was voted down, which moans a continuance of the cause of all the trouble. The practice of herding convicts of various degrees of guilt together in common chain gangs and working them like cattle uiMer the lash not only makes bad men worsa but it debauches and brutalizes public sentiment in the
State that sanctions it. The action of tho Legislature will be the signal lor a renewal of hostilities by those who represent free labor.
THE amount of individual deposits subject to check in our three banks is at least a million dollars, probably more. And this does not represent all the money belonging to the people as the banks at Darlington, Ladoga and Waveland each has its share. This fact alone is sufficient evidence that all a man needs is to have something to sell to get plenty of money. It is not inflation of the currency that is required so much as the inflation of wheat bins, corn cribs, hog pens and cattle stalls.
CONGRESSMAN TAKSNEY, of Kansas City, and a good Democrat, is in favor of cutting down the pension roll fully fifty per cent. He speaks of "an army of bummers and paupers" that is enjoying that bounty. "On this question," he declares, "the Northern Democrats in Congress, as a rule, are a pack of contemptible cowarda." Mr. Tarsney seems to have his war paint on, witn tho intention of taking the scalps of tho old arniv veterans.

A Oity of Tents Crowded With Novelties and Wonders. Few of those who visit the Barnum Bailey circus have a definite idea of tho magnitude of the enterprise controlled by the two leading showmen of tho world. It is a town of itself, larger than many that have established municipal governments. Messrs. Barnum & Bailey have 1,200 persons on their pay rolls, and their arrangements are so perfect that in twenty-four houis they can travel 150 miles, put up and take down tho immense canvas tents and give two performances and a parade, besides allowing ample room for rest and food. The performances are as elaborate as they can be made, and the spectacle, "Nero, or the Destruction of Rome," is far beyond tho reach of anything before attempted under canvas and is actually of such mammoth proportions that no building in America is large enough to contain the half of it.
"bHOlM OK
THE CIRCUS IS COMING.
Messrs. Barnum & Bailey have planned an exhibition which is not only without an equal in its line, but which will, by its very magnitude, prevent rivalry and imitation. It is the modern circus, as unlike the. old sawdust show as the electric light is unlike the tallow dip. It will all be here in its undivided greatness on Monday, September 21, with monster street parade on the day of the arrival of the show.

Are the main-stay of our public. In them are being cultivated the minds which are to be our future law-makers and leaders in every walk in life. How essential it is that these minds should be united to strong, healthy bodies. So many children suffer from impurities and poisons in the blood that it is a wonder that they ever grow up to bo men and women. Many parents cannot find words strong enough to express their gratitude to Hood's Sarsaparilla for its good effect upon th"ir children. Scrofula, salt rheum and other diseases of the blood are effectually and permanently cured by this excellent medicine, and tho whole being is given strength to resist attacks of disease.
