Ofloe In Democrat Building, east side of Second Street—ground floor. ' m— —— ■ ".'j wfe Washington Letter. [From our regular correspondent.] Washington, D. C., March 24,1892. The confirmation ot Judge Wood* by the Senate I* official notice to the Democrat* by Republican* that they cannot carry Indiana by fair mean* under the Australia? ballot system. It is notice to the Democratic party that they intend to resor, to any and every measure of fraud that the Dudley* of thiirjmrty may devise to corrupt the ballot. It is fair notice that the Republicana who engage in these fraud* stall go unpunished; that all Democrat* *hal be surely punished; and that Republican judge* who are willing to do these thing* only free themselves in the. line of sure promotion. , Shall »uch thing. continue, will it be one of the intense beating issues of the cam paign now approaching.. Democratswill call on every fair-minded Republican to wash their hands of this foul partlonismt and rebuke at the polls this effort to stiffle consc'ence and falsify an l.onest txpresViori\j>f the people at the polls, z' The nomination of Judge Woods under all the circumstances,w as an impeachment of the personal honor and integrity of Benjamin Harrison. For no man should be nominated for any‘judicial position, with the least taint of suspicion of partisan unfairness clinging to the skirt of his garment*. And Benjamin Harrison is the L first president that has violated the un ■ written law of the land in this respect. A law, too, as sacred as any written in the books, whether secular or divine. And when taken In connection with Judge Wood'* oWn statements of hi* explana tjon, of the record of the blocks of five business, aside from the partisan conduction of Democrats would certainly disqualify him from acting as a juror, | tnuch les* a* a judge in any cause involving any political consideration. Every Republican in the UniJed States, and especially in Indiana, will have the alternative presented to him this fall of resenting these things at the ballot-box, or support in humiliation and shame to the disgrace of every element of his manhood, the dictation of his party. Every day or two Mr. Blaine’s annex ' to the McKinley bill gets an airing, now In the House, again in the Senate. These talk* may be regarded a* the search light* thrown upon the reciprocity screen in the campaign of education now in progress. Reciprocity was Mr. Blaine’s attempt to whitewash and sugar-coat the McKinley bill. He well knew the old whitewash had outlived its'usefulness; hence reciprocity, hoping to win a campaign along its line*,.but which is, when analysed, simply confession and avoidance. ' The McKinley bill is simply no tradereciprocity, or it explained mean* no trade —free trade. To illustrate: Let the United State* be represented a* a cask and the McKinley bill the bung, which applied seals it. Then the juggler introduce* his fr,ee trade spigot, reciprocity—which he tiirn* at his pleasure through which free trade trickles. It is now proposed to examime the quality of this free trade. When Mr. Blaine indignantly declared the McKinley bill would not open the market* of the wotld for a single pound of pur agricultural products, he confessed but half a truth. He might have added that no purely protective tariff ever did; that every protective tariff has limited the markets of the world as to our agricultural productive measues of his party, for the fe • fast twenty five years have shut the best market* of the world as against some of our products by adverse legislation, in which the unwholesomeness of these ' products was the ostensible cause, but our insane protective system, the real cause for such legislation, and the reciprocity scheme, wa* a proposition to open up the poorest markets in the world in the way of compensating relief to the farmer. He might have confessed that the best customer* for our agricultural products, thusqut off from trading with u* upon fair terms, for the last twenty-five or thirty years were compelled by the force of cer cumstance* to stimulate the production of agricultural products in every country in the world, including the islands of the ocean, by loaning money, building rail roads And by every development possible necessary to accomplish thb end in view, and thu* as far as possible to secure agri • cultural product* from every country in the world, before purchasing our own. • That the Immense sum yearly purchased in our own markets, practically represents what the rest of the world cannot furnish B . „ them. That.the.*gffregate prpductionjof the agricultural products of the world is from year to year rapidly increasing until it i* becoming a serious measure to th? farmer* of the United Stater, and,ha* already made a once prosperous and certain business to a certain extent uncefffin and unprofitable one, indicated by fherap-

Turning the ►ca , ch-Hght upon Mr. Blaine’s reciprocity apLht it records: t. That hi* principle efforts have been directed to open up reciprocity with Sou’h America. 2 That in c nsequence of steel ship* costing twice as much in this country a* in foreign counties they would not compete with foreign sh'ps. In order that the great Iron trusts oi this country might not have to abate any of thvir exorbitant profits, and in order that American ship* mUht be able to compete with foreign ships he proposed to add additional burdens to the already burdended farmer, by granting to persons and corporations sailing these ships enor nnous subsidies to carry out his reciprocity idea. 4. That these protected ships might carry protected agricultural machinery to South America to be sold to their farmers at fifty per cent less than sold at home, in order the people of South America might with cheaper lands, cheaper labor and cheaper agricultural machinery, raise augmented competing agticullural product, cheaper than can be done at home, to swell the markets of the-world and further depress the the profits of the farmers ot this country. 6. In prbof of this the statistics of Mr Brookshire, of Indiana, are quoted, which shows that in the year 1891, our protected manufacturers sold in South America $12,062,000 worth of agricultural machinery, which was consjderably more than one-third of the trade with the South American stales. * 7. There is another feature of Mr. Blaine’s reciprocity. It permits the president to tax the people of this country by adding a tax to the products of these countries who refuse to trade with us upon Mr. Blaine’s terms, or abate them at his pleas ure. Under this law several countries in Central America have come under the ban of the president’s proclamation, among them one of the states from where we purchased 50,000,000 pounds of coffee last year, much superior to the ordinary Rio coffee, much preferred to it, and which was rapidly becoming a favorite] That proclamation added three cents a pound to the cost ot every pound coming into this country as er this proclamation went into effect, which is another burden of the long list of what our Republican friends termed “unfelt burdens" growing out of our system of-Indirect taxation, in the unjust exercise of which the people of this country have so long suffered. 8. Reciprocity puts arbitrary and monarchical power in the hands of the president that no soverign in Europe would be permitted to exercise, in which by a sin gte proclamation he may add to or abate millions ot dollars ot taxation. ——•- 111 .fr- » —.

Editor Democrat—As Lincoln county here is represented by a number from Adams county, Indiana, the thought forcibly penetrated my mind that a brief description of the country, etc. would be interesting to many ol your readers. The Sdrlace of the country here is very different from that of Adams county; which I presume is due tp an early glacial action. The soil is of a sandy loom and the production of wheat is the chief cereal, of course such a soil as I have mentioned furnishes superior roads to that of Adams county. The climate is grand in every sense of the word. To attempt a minute description would require more space than it would be expedient lo consume. The gentle chinook winds wafted from the Japan current with their mild and softening influence makes an evenness of temperature to be found in no other locality on the face of the globe. The atmosphere is dry and ctisp, moisiered by gentle tains in spring and fall. No severe storm* ever reach us. the blizzard and cyclone find no companionship here with the gentle Chinook winds. The snow falls as lightly as a maiden's kiss, and covers the ground like a bed of down. The wintersgenerally last fiom four to six weeks, spring opqn* about the first vs March and comes in so mild and gentle that one unconsciously exclaims “What a d< lightful country.” No place in the United States can furnish more‘*poft for the sportsman. The mountains are literally alive with deer, mountain goat and black bear, while more adventurous hunters can find the mountain lion and cinnamon and grizzly bear in the mountains fortresses, quantities of grouse and chickens are found upon the hills and afford splendid sport'ng in'season, while ducks and geese are upon the stream* nearly the whole year. The stream* are teaming with fish, mostly trout, and the mountain streams are alive with brook trout? __ 1 Manufacturing is’not so extensive as it might be. Cheap access to the raw material is an impoitant consideration. We have a great variety of raw material, »uch *1 timber, iron, matb’e, granite, potter’* clay and precious metals of all descriptions. The fru tof thia cduntiy far rival* that | of Adams, both in quantity and quality.

can be grown here. It is fine flavored and grow* to perfection. The soft atmosphere keeps the fruit seft and plump until it is matured. Fiult I* planted here quite extensively, while many thousand acre* of this fine fruit land Is still open to settlement, awaiting only the coming of the fruit grower tu make it a* the rose and yield up it* luscious burden. Great results are anticipv ed from the fruit industry. The tong of the mtr.y bi d Is l.eatd far and near among lhe b'oomingoi the wild flrwerr, while the hill* are covered with a coat of green, upon which thousand* of caitle and hones gre feeding. The farmer is planting hts gra’n with the aqiranceof reaping a bountiful harvest. Your* respectfully, Alpha Graham. Streogth and Health. If you are not feeling strong and healthy try E'ectric Bitters. If “LaGrippe" ha* left you weak and weary, use Electric Bitter*. This remedy acts directly on liver, ■tomach and kidnejs, gently aiding those organs to pet form their function*.
