Counterfeit dollars are in extensive circulation in the central part of the state. The protective tariff has caused three thousand farms to b 9 deserted in Vermont. ■ ■ ■ ■■■■* Is there a farmer m Jasper county or the state of Indiana who thinks he needs protection against the sixteen bushels of rye imported for seed last year? At last! The Republican reads late attorny general Baldwin and penator John Overmyer out of the republican party becanse of their opposition to the robber tariff! S. B. Thompson over the signature of “Republican,” in this week’s Republican gives republican bolters his opinion of them, backing it up with the declarations of St. Paul to the Thessalonians.

The attorney-general of the state has given the opinion that when a candidate h res a carriage w< gon or conveyance, or uses one, or knows that one is in use to pick up voters, is “inducing” voters and is punishable under the act of March 9,1 889, by a fine in the sum of S3OO.

Our neighbor seems to be greats ly alarmed over the immense cost of tickets undei the new election law. We venture the statement that he wiil have little to say in the event he secures a good job by virtue of the operation of this same law. He will retire to his closet, and in private thank his stars that the law was enacted.

Roger Q. Mills struck a square shoulder blow in his speech in the House the other day against the McKinley tariff bill whon he said: <l We have had thirty years of the policy of restricting importations and exportations. We see the result in castles everywhere except where the common people live. We see the most remarkable con» cen'ration of wealth the world has ever known, and in nine oases out of ten the wealth is concentrated in the hands of those who have been protected into opulence.” Mr. Thompson is in the field again for the republican nomination for state senator. He this week replies to “A North-End Democrat,” and thus notifies Mr Dunn of his intent. It is evident from what he claims to have done in the senate during the session of ’B9 (he makes no allusion to that of ’B7) he has been overworked, has done enough to inspire the people of this district with the desire to relegate him to Iprivate life, and in theii own interests exalt to the position a true and tried democrat. A man named Porter who wrote the purport id interview with ex-President Cleveland, wa given the alternativ&'to resign his posi. tion or get bouuced. Of course he chose the former, and, according to the Republican, sqow gives vent to his wrath in a statement that he had not told half. A great many people will believe that what he did was in the interest of the New York Sun, and that he imposed upon his employers of the World. The Reoublican, however, takes considerable stock in him, and Dana, of the Sun, can afford to give him a better posi-, tion than that he held on the World.

The United States exported 90,000,000 bushels of wheat a year, and last year imported 1,946. This amoun t of a new and superi* or grade was imported for seed. Last year the United States exported 69,000,000 bushels of corn and imported 2,388; and the am’t of rye imported was 16 bushels. The same adventurous farmer had imported this corn and rye to imn prove his crop.

Summary—We exported 90,000,000 bushels of wheat, and import-* ed 1,946; we exported of corn 69,000,000 bushels, and imported 2,388. In the light of this can our farmers fail to understand that the tax on cereals is only intended by the republican leaders to mislead them?

William Bssen, of Jordan township, has for some time been in open rebellion with his party on the question of “protection.” His opposition to that policy having assumed a serious form, a circular has been issued which urgently presses him as a candidate for Commissioner for Third district. Whether Mr. Essen will accept the “sop,” or whether the rcpublilican county convention which is to meet next Thursday will act favorably upon it remains to faseen.

It is said by some republicans that Vickery, of Remington, for Auditor, Thompson, of Renssel** aer, for Clerk, and Biggs, of Kankakee, for Treasurer, will join forces in order to successfully puU th ough.

How We! Are Taxed.

Adolph Oehme, an intelligent farmer at Brainard, Neb., has figured up how much tariff taxes Lave cost nim in a year. He has done more or less trading at the village stores, and, of course has p id protection prices for everything he had to buy. The following is his account for the twelve monthsAm’t tariff. 780 pounds sugar 6 18,72 10 gallons molasses ,40 22 oounds woolen goods .. 9,90 Dry goo- s (cost SB9) 36,72 10 pounds chocolate, etc., .. ,20 5 pounds mustard ,50 42 pounds rice ,95 8,000 feet lumber 16,00 Machinery (cost $57) 22,80 Salt, 460 pounds ,55 .1 barrel lime ,31 2 boxes soap I*2o Medicine (cost $10) 2,50 Binding twine (cost $8).... 3,20 Saddleries, etc., fcost S6B) 20,52 Boots & shoes (cost $28,50) 8,55 Total tariff on purchases,. .$142,02 In this way Mr. Oehme figures out that the tariff compels him to pay each year $142,02 more for goods which he requires than they would cost were the tariff removed. This he calls his ‘'indirect” tax, aud by comparing it with the direct tax which he pays his county, city and state he findstnistobe the result:

Tariff tax, indirect $142,02 <jity, county and state tax, direct ....... 76,82 Difference $ 65,20 And thus Mr. Oehme figures that he is paying indirectly a tax which is almost twice as large as his direct tax, and this tax is filch* ed from him little bv little in the shape of living expenses that make it hard to make both ends meet. The worst feature in the above amount of indirect tax is that nearly all, if not all, went into the coffers of monopolists instead of the U. 8. treasury. Were all the farmers as smart as Mr. Oehme there would be a speedy end of the protection system.

We are all law -abiding, peaceful citizens of commonwealth; we will not carry away riches, but we have to invest; the building alrea dy done is quite a sacrifice. We are staunch believers in the truth of our religion, ready to bring any sacrifice for its cause; at the same time we .shall work pe .cefully within our sphere, toleiant towards all that disagree with us, and we hope that everybody will meet us upon the same basis of Christian principles. Any support given u< will be appreciated and the city of Rens* selaer will but profit by helping us along as far as it is right and reasonable . It would be not too much to ask for an improvement of the muddy road from the city to the college. We wdl do our share. — Do not think to risk by doi g so. We are risking. We shall say here; we shall have students; we are in need of necessaries of life, and the pupils will be in need, too, and we shall patronize you at least for the greater part. Any assist. anee given will increase our mutual friendly relations. Tours, respectfully', Rev. Anthony Dick, Rev. B. Florian Hahn, Members of the .Precious Blood Society. Rensselaer, May 12, 1890.

Many Lives, Histories, or Biographies of the late Jefferson Davis, purporting to be written by Mrs. J-fft-rson Davis, are being advertised throughout the country.— The only genuine work of the kind written by Mrs. Jefferson Davis is that‘to be published by Belford Company, 18-22 East 18th Street, New York, entitled “Jefferson Davis, Ex-President of the Confederate -fates: A Memoir, by His Wife.” All other works claiming the a ithorship of Mrs Jefferson Davis must necessarily be injurious to her personally and pecuniarily. The book is sold by subscription, and terri ory is being rapidly assigned. The work promises to be one of the most popular ever published, and those desiring *0 canvass for it should apply at once to tne publishers, who will furnish circulars and information
