The Herald is in receipt of a highly
illustrated article showing the many
good points of a $20,000 sanitarium just
opened at Red Oak. If location and its
surroundings are as nice as they are de
scribed, it would indeed be a pleasant
place for recretion.
Congressman Dorse? was renomr
inated yesterday at Columbus for a
fourth term and it goes without saying
that he will be elected by the largest
congressional majority that will be
given in any district in the state. The
dude lieutenant-governor that felt bo
confident, did not know he was in the
race, only receiving 20 votes to Dorsey's
230.
It is too sad for thoughtful contem
plation, to think of a party whose watch
word is reform" and whose every claim
for public confidence is to be based on
its personal purity, should sell out every
thing in sight up in Maine. But the
frr.i-i TTorftld and other democratic 4're-
forum" newspapers Bay they did, and of
course that settles it.
The tariff is a tax, you know? The

and the price ranges in mcago "om
$29 to $33 per ton. Now if congress
was to r.iise that duty to $500 per ton,
eteel rails would raise in price precisely
the amount of the duty imposed, plus
the market value of the rails. That
would make the rails cost us (editors)
$533 per ton. Pretty tough, isn't ir.

The prospectors at work on the iron
ore beds of the Black Hills are nncover-
ing extremely valuable deposits. They
promise to bring to light enough of this
mineral to supply the mines of the mils,
the hill cities and the great industries
that are bound to spring up there in the
near future. When iakota can furnien
iron plates as well as the tin to coat
them, she will have the power to build
up one of the greatest industries oi the
plobe. When these tin mines are in
operation, Nebraska will have on Her
... i
borders a great community wiat
consume immense quantities of her sur
plus corn, wheat and cattle. If the far
mers knew the full possibilities of the
tin and iron deposits of the Black Hills,
they would be enthusiastically in favor
of an adequate measure of protection
for the tin industry that would build up
this gigantic home market at our doors.
We could feed and tax our own people
in Dakota rather than to compete with
India and Australia in our efforts to fur
nish food products to the tin mines of
Cornwall in England. We would have
no pauper planters of Europe to compete
with us in feeding the Dakota miner, it,
in the nature of things would be impos

Fhom a statistical account we notice
that there arc 700,000 pensioners enrolled
on the pension rolls of the United States,
who are paid 129 different rates, ranging
from $12to$2,500 per annum. There
are about 2,400 persons in foreign coun
tries who receive pensions. Of these
5G9 are in Germany, and 475 in Great
Britian.
Maybe the democratic press will come
around in fayor of the Lodge election
bill yet. To hear the whimpering of the
World-Herald over the splendid major
ity of Speaker Reed and its gloomy
predictions of the downfall of repub
lican institutions on account of cor
ruption which permeates American elec
tions (in the republican states in the
north). Something like the Lodge bill
would be a good thing, wouldn't it ?
The total vote in Arkansas in the re
cent Gubernatorial elections is stated at
191.,000, while that for president in 1SSS
was only 155,000. As F:zer, the repub
lican alliance candidate for governor,
however, ob'ained 27,000 more votes
than Harrison, the bourbons were re
duced to the necessity of either counting
20,000 or 30,000 extra ballots for their
side or lose the state. And you can de
pend upon it the party of obstruction
will not allow a matter of a few thous
and votes to block their way to success.
How is the democratic party to elect a
president of these United States when
Mr. Harrison's time is up, is becoming
quite a question, if the democratic news
papers of the country are to be credited
with telling the truth. It appears from
those mediums of intelligence that the
rank and file of their party has become
wofully corrupt, and that they have sold
out body and breeches in Maine and
Wyoming. That party must be awful
hard up for boodle if its voters sell out,
as the democratic press claim they did in

LOOK AT THE MARKE 1 S NOT THE
THEORY.
In 1870 under the free trade theory
that we must save the consumer the tax
(?) on coffee, congress reduced the duty
from five to three cents per pound, and
it was heralded over the country, that
the reduction so made was an admission
that the tariff duty was a tax on the
consumer which he was to be relieved
from, and that the poor democratic edi
tor would henceforth seat himself at his
breakfast table, surrounded by his doz
en or more children, and sip his coffee
without the taste oftax about it, but
h and behold, when he went to buy it
he found he had to pay just as much as
he did wjien the infernal robber tax was
upon it; and the importer who had been
paying the millions, in this duty into the
national treasury was found to be the
fellow who had tlie duty (tax) in his
pocket Our minister al Brazil, when 1 e
was informed that the duty was reduced
informed our government that the price
of coffee for exportation to the United
States h-ul risen just in proportion to
duty taken off. Ag'iin in a short time,
the free trader in all his anxiety for the
poor consumer, again argued that the
remaining duty of three cents per pound
on coffee was the real cause of the price
remaining up and that it was a tax that
must be removed. Congress again lis
tened to this beautiful theory and re
moved the other two cents, that the poor
editor might sip his coffee in peace,
without the shadow of a tax gatherer
falling athwart his plate; and again the
poor man went to his favorite grocer, to
find the price still. remained up; again
our minister reminded the department at
Washington that the exporters at Rio
Janiero had advanced the price exactly
equal to the amount of duty removed,
and that the American consumer would
have to pay the same old price.
Thus we foolishly turned the duty of
millions upon millions of poemds of this
product fiom the national treasury to the
pockets of the foreign coffee broker
And, still the freetrader will claim that
the consumer pay3 the duty. It has al
ways been the query of common people
why, if the American consumer pays this
duty the foreign exporter is so anxious
to haye the duty removed? Perhaps the
poor foreigner thinks he pays it and
does not know any better.
AN OBJECT LESSON.
Sac Sun.
A Cedar township farmer last Monday
brought to town two loads of oats 100
bushels. For these he received $27.00.
The tariff on oats is 10c per bushel, so
he received (according to the free trade
theory) $10.00 more for his oats than he
would Lave done if there had been no
tariff. He bought $27.00 worth of
goods, on which the cost and tariff were
as follows:
Cost.
$5.00
2.50
15.00
4.50
27.00
Tariff
2.?5
.75
2.35
.65
6.00
50 yards cf.lieo
50 pounds nails
1 suit clothes
Tinware
So it appears that while (according to
the free trade theory) he paid " $6 more
than he should have done for his goods
more than he would if there had been
no tariff on them yet by the same
theory he received $10 more for his oats
because of the tarifi. Therefore he was
just $4.00 ahead because there is a tariff
on oats and on the goods he bought.
This is not a fancy sketch, but an
actual transaction which is being more
or less closely imitated m our own town
everyday. We ask some of our free
trade friends to give us an actual tran
saction in which the farmer ia robbed by
the tariff. We don't want a theory a
supposed case we want an actual tran
saction, right here in Sac City.
