Great preparations are being made

the disappointment and backsets
so frequent to the party in the past will

A serious stabbing affray oceured in

Free Trade vs. Protection.
Editor Herald: TVe hear a great
deal about free trade and protection in
this election campaign, but the average
voter knows but very little about the
practical working of the free trade doc
trine. Perhaps a slight allusion to the
practical working of free trade right here
at home may set some men and women
to thinking. And first of all we will
give C. Whopper a nut to crack, who
fills what little space there is for reading
matter in his paper principally with free
trade slush and flings at protection. But
he is not consistent in his teachings he
frequently has an article in his paper de
nouncing persons who go to Omaha, Chi
cago and other places to buy their goods.
This he should stop or stop preaching
free trade. It is all right for men who
believe in, and vote for free trade to go
to Omaha to buy goods and pay the tariff
or tax in the shape of R. R. fare (pro
vided the R. R does not violate the In
terstate Commerce Law by giving them a
pass). But what is the effect of this pol
icy ? Just what protectionists are
