Jekyl-Hyde-Medill.

Tlio following extiaet from an address delivered by Hon. Joseph Medill, editor of the Chicago Tribune, before the American Agricultural Association of the West, appeared in yesterday’s Republic, but it is worth reproducing: “I understate the truth when I 6ay that the farmers of the West and the planters of the South are charged s>oo,000,000 a year on their goods, for the profit of protected Eastern manufacturers, moie than is fair and necessary on the p.inciple of live and let live.” This is Mr. Medili's real opinion, to •which he gives utterance during three years and nine months out of every four y ars. During the remaining three months,, just preceding a Presidential election, he advises the farmers of the West and the planters of the South to vote, for a party that imposed and keecs up these unfair and unnecessary tuxes.—St. Louis Republic.
