Thlnken. Contrasted Conditions. I have not been able to get more than nine weeks’ work this year, and have a family of seven to support. This is also the condition of thousands of other la borers. Heretofore there has been a large demand for labor in this state, men being brought here during the lat ter part of the summer from other states in order to supply the demand. Farm laborers used to receive from 31.60 to $2 per day; mechanics, $3 to 84.50 per day; miners, from $3 to 34 per day; sheep herders, from 340 to 345 per month, including board, which is also included in wages given for farm la borers. This was our condition be fore the Democrats came into power. Since then all Industries have been paralyzed and wages are from 50 to 60 per cent less, and very little work is to be had even at this price. There were thousands of men who were do ing well two years ago, but were sot satisfied with the wages above men tioned. They wanted “tariff reform,” voted the democratic ticket, and wore the democratic badge, the rooster, pinned upon their hats. Today they wear the democratic badge in the seat of their pants, and they are going around looking for a Job. The present administration has been a disgrace to this nation and a laughing stock to the civilized world. It has driven honest men to theft and caused many Innocent children to lie in their beds at night without even a crust of bread to satisfy their hunger. I nan assure you this is no exaggeration. James H. Evans. Malad City, Idaho. Pew Jobs, Knr Appllnnti, An examination of the advertising columns of a recent Sunday issue of one of the New York dailies gave a fair idea of the condition of male and female labor in this city. There were twelve columns of advertisements that had been Inserted by females who wanted work, but only three columns of advertisements inserted by people who wanted female help. There was an average of thirty-five advertise ments to each column, making 420 fe male applicants for work with only 105 opportunities for them to secure it In other words, there were four females to every vacant position. In the case of males there was the same space, three columns, devoted to advertisers who wanted help, but it took eight columns to specify the wants of those who were out of work. There were 280 male applicants for 105 jobs. Combining the advertisements of the male and female applicants, there were 700 who sought work, but they found only 210 opportunities tor them to se cure positions, or three and one-half people waiting for every job. It must be remembered, too, that there are not so many idle people now as there were six months ago, also that there are ■hundreds of applicants for work who ,cannot afford to pay for the cost of ad vertising even in those free-trade or gans that helped to bring about the oeople’8 ruin. Lauona In Prices. The total export of breadstuffa from the United States during the lgst ten months has been less by $53,700,000 than during the previous ten corre sponding months. The decrease In ex ports of provisions during the same period Is $5,700,000. Compared with the famous years of the McKinley tar iff, 1801-2-3, the volume of our exports of farm produce shows a lamentable shrinkage, says Chicago Inter Ocean. All this is in straight refutation of the promise of the free traders, who as sured us an Increased exportation of farm stuffs In exchange for our in creased importations of manufactures. Congressman Bynum, It may be re marked. promised the farmers “dollar wheat” aa a result ot "tariff reform." We are in the fool’s paradise, to whtoh a majority of the voters drove us, lured by the false promises of the free trad* erd. By all laws of nature wheat should be dearer In 1895 than In 1892, when the crop reached the unprecedent ed magnitude of 611,780,000 bushels, but by reason of the operation 'of the unnatural law that has removed a large measure ot protection from home man ufactures the price Is lower for a small output of grain than for a large one. The purchasing power of the home market is curtailed, and, therefore, the price has fallen. The farmers of America, who were deluded in ‘90 and ’92 by the free trader's cry, “Liverpool Uses the price of wheat,” now have painful leisure In which to discern that Liverpool fixes the price In accord with the American demand. When our fac tories are running full time, and when wages are high, the price of wheat Is high in Chicago, and consequently In Liverpool. When our factories are not busy, and when wages are low, the price of wheat Is low in Chicago, and consequently In Liverpool. "The buy er fixes the price,” Is the rule of trade. NO one can sell at a higher price than another Is able to give. Chicago Is the greatest wheat buyer. It buys for 65, 000,000 American people. Liverpool is a lesser buyer; it buys for 35,000,000 of Englishmen. Therefore Liverpool does not fix the price. The price Is determined In the greater market. Pro tection makes 'the greater market brisk; low tariff makes It dull. von Quixote Dickinson. The only Don Dickinson has come to the front again. It seems that his recent tail-twisting speech at Detroit was delivered immediately after an other of his confidential talks with President Cleveland. Is it possible that the phlegmatic patriotism of the chief executive of the United States haa been aroused to a vigorous assertion of American rights as against British encroachments? Certain it is that the Don of Michigan shows much the same zeal for compelling the British lion to stop the roaring and lashing of his tall on the Venezuelan border that the Don of la Mancha did 'in redressing the wrongs that appealed to his chlvalrlc sympathy. What coming event casts its shadow before in that fierce on slaught? Some surmise that it por tends a change in the Secretaryship of State, but this seems hardly probable;: tor it will be remembered that not long ago, while the president was gun ning for ducks in the Carollnas, Sec retary Oresham gave that same tall a most vigorous twist, followed, almost as soon as our Nimrod returned, by a reversal of policy. Secretary Gresham has the spirit of that old campaign cry “54.40 or fight,” which, by the way, culminated in 49 and no fight. But let ns hope that the United States will, if necessary, insist that the question of boundary between Venezuela and Brit ish Guiana will be submitted to the umpirage of fair and impartial arbi tration. If there is one thing in the record of the Democratic party of which it may be proud it is the stal wart Americanism of Andrew Jacksji and later of William L. Marcy.—Inter Ocean. The Greet Conspiracy. It Is about as necessary for Assistant Secretary Curtis and Logan Carlisle to go to London to deliver United States bonds taken by the foreign syndicate as it is for a Chicago millionaire to go to Washington to pay his income tax. The bond syndicate had its agents so near to the President and Secretary of the Treasury that they were suspected of mare influence than the cabinet. The same agents who held Uncle Sam up by the throat until he issued the bonds can certainly be intrusted to take chre of these and lock them up in their Eng lish vaults. The contemplated trip of Messrs. Curtis and Carlisle is simply a junket at the expense of the govern ment. But It is rather rough on the people to be compelled to stand and deliver and then pay for a picnic party for the formal surrender of the plun J der.—Inter Ocean. . i _: . - Cartier Hu Had Enough. Eugene D. Carter, of North Carolina, is another prominent Southern Demo crat who has grown tired of the old slave method of using the bogy man to keep white men in the Democratic party. "We have at last reached that point in the south,” says he, “where honest, thinking men can no longer be dragooned into silly inconsistencies in national politics by any fear of that worn-out bugbear of negro domina tion.” Mr. Carter is not an exception In the South. He is representative of many thousands of Intelligent white men who have become disgusted with the use of this once great bogy of the South to prevent them from breaking away from the Democratic machines that enable little rings of corrupt pol iticians to rule several Southern states, —Ex.

TR WA'WI Leap* of a Mountain Sheep, No; the mountain sheep does not leap from great heights, and land either upon his horns or his feet. He knows the strength of his materials too well to try it. His horns and skull might successfully withstand the shock, but the weight of his body would break his spinnl column in two or three places, to say the least of it. It is true that when liurd pressed a herd of them will some times plunge down a terribly steep in cline, sliding and bounding from point to point, until they plow into the “slide rock” below; but as to leaping over a sheer precipice, I never saw any one who even claimed to have witnessed such a thing.
