FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 14, 1894

MAINE went for McKinleyism, "McKinley he" helped to do it.

and

IT isn't often that a bitter pill^s made of sugar, but the Democracy have something' of that kind in their mouths just now.

THE Democratic party has lessened the burdens of the poor man by putting salt on the free list and taxing sugar 40 per cent.

MB. CLEVELAND is opposed to tlie income tax, but he is not opposed to taxing the poor man's little income with a forty per cent tariff on his sugar.

THE Republican majority in Maine still continues to grow. It is now 3S,000. and when all the returns are in the indications are that it will be 40,000.

MCKINLEYISM does not seem to be dead in Maine. It's life blood seems to flow with a stronger current than ever, and its voice is louder than the thunder.

YES, and while light is dawning on the people of Louisiana it is dawning on the masses of other States.—Aryus Navs.

Vermont and Maine for instance.

THE last report of the Agricultural department at \Yasliington shows the potato crop to be the worst of any since the department was established. Potatoes will be high.

THIS present campaign forces an issue between the present law and the McKinley law.—Indianapolis Scntimel.

And Vermont and Maine have just rendered their verdicts on the issue.

As a matter of fact the Republican party is hopelessly committed to Mc.Kinleyism.—Indianapolis Sentinel.

It seems to be just that way up in the States of Vermont and Maine.

THE Louisiana sugar planters have learned that it is right to protect sugar. But they must" learn that protection to home industries is a principle that must pervade the whole country.

MB. CLEVELAND insists that sugar is the very thing to put a high tariff on because everybody uses it and the tariff will bring a great deal of money into the treasury. But everybody uses salt as well as sugar.

MU. BBOOKSIIIRE has become quite corpulent since he sat in Speaker Crisp's chair a few nights and heard the members from the backwoods districts of Arkansas read the essays they had prepared for home use.

MAINE did not go ''hell bent Governor Kent" yesterday, but It went mighty high

For Senator Frye, And Democracy will heed Its indorsement of Heed.

AFTEJI thirty years of desperate struggle the Democratic party has succeeded in getting salt on the free list. No poor man need now be without salt. If we could only sweeten our coffee with salt, how happy we would be.

THE Democratic press is boasting over what it supposes to be the death of McKinleyism. But Vermont answers their boast with a 30,000 majority for Protection to Home Industries, the largest ever given in the State. McKinleyism is not even asleep, much less dead.

TOM JOHNSON in his speech on the 14th of August protesting against the House surrendering to the Senate said: '"As 1 said, voting for the Wilson bill I can eat crow, but this crow is now too big and black for me to swallow." Th bigger and blacker the crow the more palatable it is to some Democrats hereabouts.

CUCKOO organs are still howling "The trusts must go." By a full Demo cratic vote in Congress and the silent consent of the President one great trust has been given SI 0,000,000 another §10,000,000. None can cessfully controvert such facts, pretended opposition to trusts •shame and a blind.

THE Social Economist, in its Septein ler number, introduces in an attrac Jtive manner the personal and biograph ical method in its economic teachin by a lively and racy sketch of the re cent leaders in the protectionist school Henry C.Carey and Horace Greeley The writer evidently writes from the standpoint of one who was specially intimate with the thought processes and life work of both men.

THE SUGAR BOUNTY.

The Indianapolis News of Tuesday in discussing the sugar bounty, says: "We believe that the people are getting tired of being taxed for the benefit of every man who finds it impossible to run his own business at a profit." The News would have it inferred from this that the people have been taxed "for the benefit of every man who found it impossible to run his own business at a profit." It very well knows, as does every one in the country, that no such thing has ever been done. The object in paying a bounty to sugar producers, is not to benefit the sugar makers but the ultimate purpose is to benefit the country at large. If no other good is to result from the sugar bounty than the profit it yields to the sugar makers, then all will agree that the payment of the bounty would be an outrage. But suppose that the sugar bounty should result, in a few years, in the establishment of a great industry here, which would give employment to hundreds of thousands of workmen, put in successful operation a new and profitable branch of agriculture, make sugar much cheaper than it is now, and render us independent of other sugar producing countries, what would the News say as to tlie wisdom of the bounty? Since Napoleon, through the bounty system, established the beet sugar business in France, sugar has been much cheapened all over the world. Other nations have followed the example of France, in paying bounties for the production of beet sugar, and now more than one-half of all the sugar consumed in the world is produced from the beet. If no nation had -ever undertaken to develop the beet sugar business, sugar would today be double the price it is. Is it not plain from these considerations that the bounty means something more than a mere favor to beet sugar makers?

ELI T. JORDAN, the Democratic can didate for State Geologist, and at present the State Gas Inspector, is evidently in bad odor with the Indianapolis Sentinel. The Sentinel says:

Apropos of the alleged failure of natural gas and the utter ruin of gas companies we find this item in the Rushville Republican: "The late sale of Doxey's interest in the Connersville natural gas company for §500,000 brings out the statement that it has paid dividends of 25 per cent, for four years past. It is also said that Doxey cleared §75,000 on his contract in building the line. These are pretty fancy figures and the consumers pay the bills."

Commenting on the above the Sentinel with a wink of one eyes says: This is a common characteristic of natural gas companies. They are in very bad condition before the tax boards, but they all sell at "fancy figures." And we are asked to believe that men of known intelligence are investing at such prices in ventures that are on the verge of failure.

The Sentinel evidently has not forgotten the lobbying by Mr. Jordan in favor of the natural gas combine in last winter's Legislature. Mr. Jordan's report on the "alleged" failure of gas when taken in connection with his work as a lobbyist shows that he is a willing tool of monopolists.

THERE are more kinds of Democracy these days than there are breeds of dogs. There is Hill Democracy, winch represents the free trade, or plain tar-iff-for-revenue-only principle. its creed is the Chicago platform, just as it was made. Then there is the lior-man-Brice Democracy which favors free trade in everything except what is produced by the industries in which it is pecuniarily interested. Again, there is a Democracy which thinks that sugar ought to be taxed, and a Democracy which thinks it should be free. Mr. Cleveland is a sugar taxer, and Mr. Wilson is for free sweetness. The whole has been appropriately named tlie crazy quilt party, and surely it does present the aspect of one of those queer bed covers.

THE very reason that sugar is so universally used makes it an ideal article for legitimate taxation. There is no other common necessary that can furnish larger revenue and the tax on which is so lightly felt by the people, as sugar. Hence a small tax on it.— Arjus-Ncics.

Until now the A ryus-Ncws has been expending its lurid rhetoric and tumultuous eloquence in favor of the House popgun bill which placed sugar on the free list, and has been swearing by the beard of the prophet that the war would go on until this was accomplished. Has it had a revelation'.1 Whence coines the revelation? It must be from the sugar trust.

DEMOCRATIC editors and orators have not yet determined whether a tariff on wool makes it cheaper or dearer. The last proposition that has been advanced is that it increases the price to the fanner when he sells it and at the same time gives our manufacturer benefit of cheaper raw material.

tlie

HAVE you heard from MAINE? Have you heard PROM Maine? Have you HEARD from Maine? Have YOU heard from Maine? HAVE you heard from Maine? Have tlie DEMOCRATS heard from Maine?

How many suspender buttons did Brookshire break off in his desperate ellorts to get a free coinage bill passed?

THE effects of the repeal of the McKinley law concerning reciprocity have already begun to be felt. Spain has already published a decree canceling the reciprocity treaty between the United States and Cuba, the abrogation to take erfect the moment the United States applies the new customs tariff. The order puts the old prohibition tariff upon our flour, machinery and meats. During the last three years our exports to Cuba have amounted to more than §20,000,000 annually, and for the thirteen years before the passage of the McKinley act had only averaged 810,000,000. The increase of 100 per cent, was effected by the operations of the policy of reciprocity. Other countries of South America and Europe will doubtless follow Spain, and in a tort time all the benefits gained by the Harrison administration will be lost.

THOSE Republicans who are wont to criticize the Democratic Senate for its alliance with the sugar trust, ought to keep in mind that the "small coterie of Democrats" could not have won without the aid of Republican votes.—Review.

But the "small coterie of Democrats" did win without the aid of Republican votes and won by the aid of Democratic votes exclusively in the Senate with two exceptions, these two being Allen and Kyle, Populists. But one Democrat in the Senate voted against tlie sugar trust bill, and that was Hill, of New York. oTliey won in the House by a vote of 1S2 "ayes," all Democrats and Populists with not a single Republican vote, to 100 "nays," all Republicans except 11 Democrats. Among the latter were such Democrats as Bourke Cocliran and Tom Johnson. So when the Jicvieic asserts that the sugar trust bill could not have won without the aid of Republican votes it flies in the face of history too recently made.

TnE following comment on the Maine election coming as it does from the Washington Post,, a Democratic paper, is significant:

What Maine did yesterday we expect the other States in the North, East and West at least to do when their opportunity presents itself. We expect, in a word, that the whole country will rise in protest against the foolish, mischievous and untoward policy which the cuckoos, the mugwumps and the demagogues have indicated. The country is always intelligent and patriotic, and it can be relied upon, we think, to accept the Republican party as the safest, wisest and most wholesome custodian of the national welfare under the circumstances that now prevail in the Democracy.

It will now be in order for the ArrjusNews to read the Post out of the Democratic party.

WHILE the value of stock in the Whisky Trust, the Sugar Trust, the Lead Trust, the Tobacco Trust, and various other trusts has advanced millions of dollars as the result of the tariff law, wages are being cut in almost every branch of business, "to meet the new requirements," we are told. The Wall street speculators who have made money by the deal may be expected to vote the Democratic ticket at the next election. Where will the laboring man whose wages have been cut down be found?

ABRAHAM LINCOLN SAID THAT HE' THOUGHT THAT 1IE KNEW ENOUGH TO KNOW THAT "WHEN AN AMERICAN PAID TWENTY DOLLARS

FOIi

STEEL TO AN

ENGLISH MANUFACTURER AMERICA HAD THE STEEL AND ENGLAND HAD THE TWENTY DOLLARS. BUT WHEN HE PAID TWENTY DOLLARS FOR STEEL TO AN AMERICAN MANUFACTURER AMERICA HAD HOTII THE STEEL AND THE TWENTY DOLLARS."

THE necessity for three Democratic papers in this town is now made apparent—one to excuse the Senate, one to excuse the House and one to excuse tlie President. A conference committee should be appointed and divide the work. The Aryus-Xeivs has undertaken the triangular job, but the work of posing on three sides of a question at the same time is much more than our chipper little neighbor is able to bear.

IF that's the kind of Democrats they are [the Louisiana kickers]—the Uor-man-Brice kind—tlie sooner they are out of the Democratic party the better for the party and the country.—Aryus jVctes.

The An/us Neics is kept busy these days in reading Democrats out of the party. Having disposed of some of the leading newspapers and statesmen it isnow turning its attention to the sugar planters. The wool growers and coal miners and iron workers will come next.

UMIKU uie .Senate bill tlie [sugar] tax is about 33 per cent less than under the McKinley bill.—An.)lis News.

How does it come then that the buyer of sugar receives only 17 pounds now for SI and under tlie McKinley law he received 20 and 22 pounds?

Six months in the State, sixty days in the township and thirty days in the ward or precinct make }ou a voter, other things being all right. Bear this in mind.

THE people of Vermont and Maine do not seem to appreciate the elt'orts the Democratic party has made to lift from their shoulders the burdens of tariff taxation.

THE JOURNAL has received an anonymous communication signed "Ex-Sold-ier," written in a disguised hand, asking ys to give the n^me of each soldier in this county whose pension has been reduced and the amount of the reduction in each case. If "ExSoldier" will step into THE JOURNAL sanctum he will be shown the report of the Secretary of the Interior showing the names and addresses of over 15,000 soldiers whose pensions have been reduced, the amount of the reduction and those who have been suspended and those who have been dropped between March 4, 1893, and May 10, 1894. Montgomery county has her full share. Had he not been too cowardly to give his name "Ex-Sold-ier's" request would have been complied with. The writer was probably an ex-soldier who fought at the battle of Pogue's Run.

THE Secretary of the Treasury drew the sugar schedule practically as it was enacted into a law by Democratic votes and the Presidential permission. And all the cuckoo newspapers including the Arijus News vehemently assert that "sugar is a legitimate article for tariff taxation.

GI:AVKI,LY KI:N.

Wheat sowing and corn cutting are the order of the day. Mesdames Mahlon Butler, Sarah Peebles and John Goble have been on the sick list the past week.

School begins next Monday at this place with Miss Ella Cline as teacher. Miss Cline gave universal satisfaction last year and it is to be hoped a successful term may again be again realized.

A party of gypsies have been camped along the creek on the Hawkins Seller farm the past week. The usual number of "dark skinned beauties," numerous children and poor horses are seen with the troupe.

The fair was fairly represented on Thursday and Friday of last week, yet a goodly number remained at home who usuallj' attend. We would not attribute tlieir non-attendance to any particular cause* let alone hint that the admittance fee, with a ride on tlie merry-go-round, red lemonade, etc., might prey too heavy on their pocket books.

We are sorry we disappointed the Swamp College scribe by not being present at the reunion. it was rather of a disappointment to ourself also, nevertheless we intend to plod along the same as before, and like the parable of olden times, should we get in at the eleventh hour we shall look for our full wages and the smile of approval from the editorial stall'. Before we close, also, we would just remark that we hope THE .TOI P.NAI. is too old to let Hattery and too much praising turn its head. Better go slow ye correspondents, it might be the ''best wine was "•iven first.'' See!

Sunday Excursion to Iiatiapolls. On Sunday, Sept. 10, the i'.ig Four will run a big excursion train to Indianapolis for the sum of 75 cents for the round trip. Tickets good only on the train which passes here at 0:10 a, m. and returning at 7:30 p. m. the same day. This is a good opportunity to spend a day at Indiana's capital.

ROBBED A BANK.

Daring Job Performed by a Thiel at Roesville, 111.

THE CITIZENS' BANK IS PLUNDERED.

While the Proprietor Goes to Dinner th« Robber Effects an Entrance, Steals 810,000 and Makes

Hii Escape.

LOOTED AT NOOK.

HOOPESTON, 111., Sept. 13. Tho Citizens' bank at Rossville was robbed of 810,000 at noon Wednesday as systematically as the Dalton gang could have done It and much less tragically. Rossville is an important grain-buying point on the Chicago & Eastern Illinois railroad and large amounts of money are sometimes in the bank for the elevators to check on. The rainy weather of the last week has made grain-buying slow and the money accumulated in the country banks.

At noon Wednesday Banker Campbell locked up the place and went to dinner. In the safe was about $10,000 in ourrency including 8150 in $1 and 82 bills, which he had picked up from the desk and placed in the safe. The safe door was closed but the combination was not thrown.

When Banker Campbell returned after an absence of thirty minutes he found the safe door open and the ourrency gone. An investigation showed that the burglar entered the baok window of the grocery store in the rear of the bank and with a pair of nippers turned the key in the back door of the bank. Then opening the safe he took the money and left the way he came. Tracks from the window led to the railroad traicks, then into a cornfield. The engineer of the elevator sayS he saw a man with a light check suit run down the alley with a bundle in his hand. The iceman says he saw a man of the same description in the alley in the rear of the bank in the forenoon, and others saw the same man sitting in front of a grocery store just before 12 o'clock. He wq& an entire stranger, but evidently knew of the habits of the banker and something of his busi« nesa.

WOULDN'T ANSWER.

Witness Ho gun Refuaeg to Testify in the Debs Trial. CHICAGO, Sept. 13. In the Debs trial several messenger boys testified to having delivered telegraphic messages addressed to E. V. Debs to various persons, but only a very few to Debs personally. They had b6en instructed to delivor all messages marked "personal" to no one but Mr. Debs. Among others to whom telegrams had been delivered were Messrs. Hogan.Howard, Keliher and Rogers. In receipting for them the gentlemen named would sometimes sign their own names and sometimes that of Mr. Debs.

L. P. Benedict, who was Debs' secretary during the strike, was then called to the stand. Every question put him by Mr. Milchrist was objeoted to. He refused to answer except by advice of counsel for fear of self-in-crimination. Judge Woods said that was all right, so nothing at all was elicited from Mr. Benedict.

Mr. Walker then called James Hogan, one of the directors of the Ameri can Railway union and a defendant in the suit. After answering Mr. Walker's questions to the effect that he was a defendant and that he had filed an answer he refused to make any further statements on the ground of self-incrimination. A hot conflict was engaged in between Mr. Walker and Mr. Gregory over the question whether the court should compel Mr. Hogan to answer or not. Both parties agreed to take the noon recess to look up decisions. When the court was called at 2 o'clock, however, Mr. Walker said he would not discuss the question at that time, and the matter dropped.

Mr. Walker then called David S. Geerm, a shorthand reporter who had taken Mr. Debs' evidence before the federal strike commission. After much objection he read a part of it to be put in evidence. When he had finished Mr. Ervvin demanded that the whole testimony be introduced, and the court held that the government must introduce a complete transcript of everything that pertained to the matter already in evidence.

Mr. Walker then read portions of two copies of the American Railway union constitution and submitted thein, after much objection, as evidence. After parts of the constitution had been introduced Mr.Erwin insisted that it all go in and it was admitted. Mr. Walker then read certain portions of several numbers of the Railway Times and introduced them as evidence.
