been in control in that commonwealth
f:r many years past, their margin, in

A company of foreign capitalists will

W.st Virginia, a tract of 400,000 acres
of iron and timber lands having been
bought for this purpose. So long
as things are moving in this way it is
folly to let down the protective bars for
the products of the whole world. The
United States seems to" be making sub
stantial progress toward making a home
market for every pound of agricultural
produce that can be turned off her broad
and rich agricultural lands. The Ne
braska farmer who cannet see that it
will be better for him to ship corn and
wheat and pork to these people in West
Virginia than across the Atlantic to their
old home in Scotland and at the same
time have their millions here for im
provements and for taxation must in

the south ar3 filled by democrats!
Yet, we have dough faces in the north
who protest against any Federal legisla
tion for the prevention of these mon
strous offences committed continually in
that section in the interest of a political
party. Men in the north who admit that
the social condition of the south, wrought
up by the race question, will never pre
vent these outrages aoaitst our civiliza
tion stand up and not only consent to be
cheated and robbed in the electoral col
lege and national legislation but insist
upon the right of that section to continue
the infamous practice and gain political
supremacy vin this country by such
bloody revolutionary practice.
The workingmen of Belgium have
petitioned the King for universal suf
frage, and resolved "if we are not voters,
we will not be soldiers." They ask just
what the colored men in tthis country
ask the right to go to the polls and
exercise their right to citizenship.
WORLO-HERALD-RATS !
The World-Herald precipitates a
whole page of stuff on the public, for
Sunday reading.which is evidently manu
factured by the democratic campaign com
mittee for the "poor farmer" and thereby
it hopes to make him believe thst a busi
qess man in this country will sell his
wares cheaper to a foreigner than to a
purchaser at home. That proposition
has already been exploded in the United
States senate, yet the democratic party
uses it without blush as that party did
the Morey letter during the Garfield cam
paign. A statement of the proposition is all
that is necessary to refute it. When
American manufacturers become so ena
mored of the foreigner that they will
sell goods to him for half (?) what they
sell to the purchaser at home, who
purchases on the same terms so far as
cash is concerned, our country should
provide a home for the feeble minded
manufacturer. In answer to senatorial
enquiry when this campaign lie was pro
mulgated in the senate our manu
facturing institutions replied as
follows. We quote from the congress
ional record:
Ann Arbor, Mich., Aug. 22, '90
Hon. F. B. Stockbridge, Washing
ton: Prices to wholesale dealers in this
country are the same as to foreign whole
sale dealers, with boxing and New York
delivery added.
Ann Arbor Agricultural MVg. Co.
Tn tho same enouirv - the Studebaker
Manufacturing Co. replied:
South Band, Indiana, Aug . 21, '90.
ttw Tt v. Stockbhidge. Washing
ton: We have never made a distinction
in price in favor at a foreign market; all
reports to the contrary are absolutely
false.
Studebaker MVg. Co.
To the same enquiry the Oliyer Chilled
Plow Works replied:
South Bend, Indiana, Aug. 21, '90.
Hon. F. B. Stockbridge, Washing
ton: We do not make lower prices to
foreign than to American wholesale
dealers. Are prepared to prove all such
reports as false.
Oliver Chilled Plow Works.
The publication in the World-Herald
is from an engineering journal published
in New York City and is simply a trade
circular, good we suppose, for an adver
tising dodge to the foreign buyer. We
venture there is not a dealer in agricul
tural implements in Nebraska, who. if he
will tell the truth, cannot disprove the
World-Herald figures without tjoing to
the manufacturer. And that there is not
a hardware dealer in this city who can
not satisfy any man the figures of the
circular in question are untrue in point
of fact. The wonderful knock out ..or

the Uinana journalist win iciaicu
the common experience of every dealer
and purchaser in Nebraska, as well as by
theplain facts when they are gathered.
A POINTER FROM MAINE.
If our democratic friends and neigh
bors will let go of the robber tariff just
long enough to glance at the congress
ional election held yesterday in Maine,
they can gain a political idea worth
nursing. Tom Reed and his republican
colleagues in that state haye heard from
the farmer and find him right up in the
traces, even with the progressive
murch of the old party the tariff reform,
the silver legislation and the Lodge elect
ion bill that the democratic ruffians in
the House predicted would relegate Mr.
Reed and his stalwart colleagues to
private life, have all been endorsed with
a hurrah iu Maine.and so it will be in the
country at largo when local differences
do not divide the party. -
Florida, through one of its represent
atives in the Senate, demands that pine
apples, bananas and cocoanuts be taken
from the free list and be made dutiable.
These articles come in competition with
some of Florida's products, and hence,
even though the rest of the country be
benefitted by their free entrance, Florida
clamors for the erection of barriers
against them. Florida, however, would
strike every vestige of duty from iron
and coal, and from linen, cotton and
woolen fabrics, which affect interests
hundreds of times more important and
valuable than its whole fruit crop. That
is to say, from the Florida point of view
the Hancock dictum is correct.' The
tariff is a local issue. Globe Democrat.
There is no use being a blackguard
B'O. Sherman if you are a free trader.
Calling people who believe in a protect
ive tariff liars as an argument does not
impress any one as either brilliant or
smart. Tho people who believe in a tar
iff for protection, and the woods are full
of them, think that a man who continu
ally asserts the untruth that a tariff for
protection is always a tax on the consum
er doesn't know what he is tajking about,
hence they charitably excuse him. The
charge that the American consumer pays
the added duty is a British argument
for American suckers; .Johnny Bull
would not worry himself over our pro
tection laws one moment if we paid the
expenses, any one with a thimble full of
brains knows that. It is because he has
to pay this tax that he employs the
democratic press of this country to fight
our protective tariff. If the foreign
consumer paid the duty laid upon Amer
ican exports, this country would not be
worried over the question of reciprocity,
it is because we pay such duty that we
seek reciprocity when it is our interest to
do so.
Secretaky Blaine last Friday eve
ning made a great speecn at Waterville,
Maine, in which he set forth the advan
tages of reciprocity of trade with other
American nations in a masterly manner
as the following summary facts presented
concerning the balance of trade with
other countries fully shows.
American exports to Europe Asia,
Africa Australia, Canada and Hrwaii,
(1889) $038,000,000.
American imports from same, $537,
000. Balance in our favor, $129,000,000.
Balance against us in trade with the
world, $13,000,000,
Amount lost elsewhare than in first
named continents and countries, $142,
000,000. American exports Jto Sou'h American
counties. $75,000,000.
American imports from ame, $216,
000,000. Balance against us in South American
trade, $142,000,000.
This speech has already 'borne its fruit
in proposed amendments to the McKin-
ley tariff bill by which the principle of
reciprocity is to be incorporated in con
gressional action. Thus sugar goes on
the free list conditioned upon a like con
cession to the agricultural products of
this country. French wines will be ad
mitted to our markets on the same terms
accorded by that government to Ameri
can meats, and Canada merchandise in a
like manner. Countries that place ex
port duties upon goods as we remove the
import duties from them are to be dis
criminated against.andthe broad principle
is laid down that favors extended should
be fully met by fayors received. This is
right and just, and as a principle in the
doctrine of peotection it is unasailable,
and will no doubt meet with the most
cordial endorsement of the country.

HOW HE WAS CUBED.
WHY A VIVISECTIONIST MADE
HIS MIND TO REFORM.
UP
H Passed s Night of Horrible Suffering.
Sandbagrgera Practice on Illin an He Had
Experimented Many .Times on Dumb
Animals A Mighty Good Lie.
"I was once a vivisectionist, but I re
formed, or, if you medical gentlemen
who believe in it prefer the term, I gave
it np several years ago and have no de
Eire to resume my investigations," re
marked Dr. S. K. Wilson, of Kentucky,
to several fellow practitioners at the
Richelieu.
"While practicing I lived in a New
England town. 1 was young and zeal
ous in the cause, and it was not long be
fore every one within the limits of the
county knew of me as a man who tor
tured live animals to death, and what
little practice I had I lost in consequence.
But I had some means, and remained at
the village until the occurrence of the
episode which 1 am about to relate.
"I had been in receipt of many threat
ening letters informing me that unless 1
ceased my cruel pleasure 1 would be
driven away. But at the letters 1
laughed, and to the remonstrances of
the prominent citizens of the village 1
turned a deaf ear.
"One pitch dark night, having occa
sion to visit the drug store, I was met
on my return by five 6talwart individu
als, whose faces, owing to the darkness, 1
could not see. I was asked if my name
was Dr. Wilson, and upon replying in
the affirmative I was seized, bound and
flung into a wagon.
TORTURED.
"After a half hour's rido we halted
by a big barn, inside of which I was
carried. A couple of lanterns were lit,
under one of which I was stood, while
under the others my eaptora, now mask
ed, grouped themselves. After a mo
ment's silence one of them, in a dis
guised voice, said:
'Dr. Wilson, we have long heard of
you as a vivisectionist. You pursue
your investigations in order, you say, to
discover, by observing the sufferings of
one order of animals (sufferings caused
by you), the means for relieving another
order. We think your reasoning sound.
" 'We are a gang of sandbaggers who
make our living on the highway. We
do not wish to kill, but we desire to so
silence our prey as to enable us to escape
ere he Bhall be able to give the alarm.
To always do this necessitates a knowl
edge of just how hard a blow is required
to relieve one of his senses.
'Of course we might learn in due
time from experience in our profession,
of which 1 might say we are new mem
bers, but that would be unwise for two
reasons: We might at first hit so hard as
to kill, or we might not hit hard enough
to knock our man sensaless, and a light
blow would only cause him to yell an
alarm.
" 'Neither risk do we care to take.
So we have concluded to become, like
you, disciples of vivisection in order that
we may be able to save the lives of others
and preserve ourselves from capture at
the same time. We believe that you
will appreciate our worthy purpose,
and in behalf of humanity make no re
sistance, though, were you to do so, no
good would result, for we are far from
any house.
" 'What we intend to do is to pound
you on the head with a sandbag gently
at first, but gradually increasing the
strength of the blows until you have
been knocked insensible.'
PROLONG AGONY.
1 gazed at the group with feelings of
terror,' Dr. Wilson continued. "I did
not believe them to be in earnest. But
when each man drew from his pocket a
sandbag, and took a position within arm's
reach of where I stood trembling, I real
ized my danger and remonstrate!, plead
ed, begged, but to no purpose.
" 'What we do is for the benefit of hu
manity, the spokesman replied with a
horrible grin. As he did so he struck
me on the head with his sandbag just
hard enough to break my hat. The man
next him struck me hard enough to
make me wince, the next a little harder,
the next 6till harder, while the fifth
struck me so hard my teeth rattled.'
"1 screamed for help, and in return re
ceived a thump from the spokesman and
a heavier one from the second, and so
on. I stood it until three rounds had
been made, and then fell on my knees,
and immediately after received a blow
that knocked me senseless.
"Whether I was hit again I do not
know. I was revived by a bucket of
water being flung in my face. And then,
heavens! Will 1 ever forget it? I was
made to stand up while the five repeated
the experiment, in order, the spokesman
said, that the lesson might be more
firmly impressed upon me.
"In vain 1 begged. I swore to re
nounce my practice of vivisection, to
leave town, but they laughed at me and
began to rain blows upon my head, in
creasing their strength more slowly than
before, thus prolonging my terrible
agony.
"Unable to stand the pain, I fell on
the ground and feigned insensibility, but
one of them, thrusting a lighted match
before my eyes, caused me to open them,
whereupon down came the blows again
until once more I was unconscious.
"This time when I came to I was alone.
Day was breaking. Pinned to my coat
was a paper on which was printed in
pencil: 'You have sworn to renounce
your devilish work and to leave town.
Do so.' And," the doctor concluded, "I
did so without a day's delay or a feeling
of regret." Chicago Post.
The Hairpin Stood On Ita Head.
A young woman dropped a steel hair
pin from her head as she was about to
leave an electric car.. It lay flat on the
floor until she had alighted and the
driver had turned the current on. Then
the hairpin rose and stood on its head.
When the current was turned off the
hairpin lay down; when it was put on
again the hairpin would stand up. The
