The down east newspapers are

and we stake our reputation on

"We recognize in the action of the

publican members ot congress
Huch a wise, conservative, and
patriotic policy as will insure pros
perity to our country and promote
the interests of all our people." No
state is better qualified to speak of
prosperity than Kansas, which now
has farm products of the value of
about $100,000,000 in excess of its
home demand. Reciprocity is en
larging the foreign markets for
these, and protection is both in
creasing the home market for what
the Kansas farmers have to sell and
preventing Canada and ..Manitoba
from competing with them for pos
session of it.

THE KANSAS REPUBLICANS.
The Kansas convention of repub
lican state leagues was well at
tended, and was wise in its adop
tion of resolutions. It refrained
from the premature labor of nomi
nating a president for 18!)'J, and,
dealing with the past and present
approved what it justly termed "the
strong, able and successful admini
stration of President Harrison."
And, passing to the republican
coadjutors of the president, added:
to impair the credit and to prevent
the growth of Kansas by circulating
false reports as to the poverty of
the people, and by seeking to in
duce them to repudiate their debts.
Kansas is a prosperous state in
habited by honest poop!, whose in
debtedness is, in much the greater
part, for money borrowed with
which to purchase or to improve
their farms, and to the payment of
which the profits of their farms are
fully adequate. Half a dozen
Petfers and Sockless Simpsons can
(Jo more to damage Kansas in one
yt;ir than the labors of its people
have none toward improving it in
six ye.-irs. Kansas is what it is be
cause republicans have made it
what it is; and it is a state to be
proud of, not a region to be tra
duced and slandered. Inter Ocean.

"The VlitTerence in v'llu' between

li oiter yesterday. "A few days ago
I saw a piece of desirable property
for a summer residen 'c on the bank
of the river near Marine City, and
hunted up the owr.er, but was para
lyzed to learn he wanted Ifl'xX) an
acre for it. While marveling at
this extraordinary price for unim
proved land I happened to look
across the river and saw a desirable

THE Tennessee general assembly
convened at noon to-day in special
session to settle the questions that
have grown out of the recent
trouble between miners and con
victs at Hriceville, referring to the
abolition of the lease system and to
the rebuilding and enlarging of the
state prison. The lease system as
now operated yields the state
$1(10,1X10 per annum, and if it is abol
ished the tax rate of the state must
be increased. There is a strong
sentiment among the members of
the assembly against a change.
Tbe military lawsare to be changed
so as to give the executive more
power in emergencies like that at
Hriceville.
The body will be in session
twenty days, but it is not thought
the work before it can be attended
to in that time. If not, an extraor
dinary session will be called. A
committee representing the miners
of the state will be in constant at
tendance during the session, their
object being the abrogation of the
lease system or the passage of such
laws as will keep convicts from
being sub-leased to any mining
company, that will pay for their
services.
THE TARIFF ON FARM PRODUCTS.
Kvery free trade writer and ora
tor hastens to assure the farmer that
no possible benefit can result to
him from a protective tariff. In
furtherance of this free trade
ddgma, every vote dominated by
the party committed to taritf reduc
tion was in the last congress invari
ably recorded in opposition to
every proposed increase of duty on
farm products. They were as in
variably recorded in favor of reduc
tion of such duties whenever oc
casion was offered.
Hut Protection does bemefit
farmers equally with any other
class of citizens, and fortunately
the majority of them realize the
fact and turn a deaf ear to the speci
ous pleas of those who are labor
ing for a change in the national
policy. Kven if it should be
admitted that prices of agricultural
products are not permanently en
hanced as a result of ranlf Protec
tion, it would by no means follow
that such Protection is not bene
ficial in some instances absolute
ly necessary to the success of
t'uose who cultivate the soil tor a
living. -The farmer needs a steady
and accessible u'.arket as well as
fair prices for his products. And
while these would not be "insured
without the system ft Protection
extended to those manufactures by
which consumers are attracted and
enabled to become liberal pur
chasers, neither would it be pos
sible without an adequate barrier
against cereals and other export
able products in the hands of
foreign farmers.

Canadian farmers will be in posi
tion to concede more in price than
can be afforded by those who grow
such crops this side the line. Then
it is of prime importance to the
citizen farmer to know that the com
petitor who would thus cut him out
from a market must hrst equalize
their respective conditions by some
contribution to our national ex
chequer. Though this may not in
crease the market price at which a
sale can be affected, it very certain
ly prevents a reduction in prices
and gives the privilege of making
the sale to the citizen farmer whom
it was intended to benefit.
The full effect of thus giving citi-

much more vividiy t'jfei iated by
the farmers of Can. . than their
allies this side the line. Here the
average "reformer" will dismiss the
suggestion with a wave of the hand
and repititiou of some free trade
platitude that never was known to
apply in a business transaction,
while a little further north those
subjects of the queen whose lessons
have been learned in the school of
experience stand ready to attest
that the agricultural schedule of
the McKinley tariff has materially
changed the outlook for sales of
their products to our people.

THE trouble between thetwoholy
coats, the one at Treves and the
other at Argentuel, has been satis
factorily settled by the church
authorities. They have decided
that the holy coat at Treves was
worn by the Savior at the crucifixion
and theother was 1 1 is garment when
He was a boy at Galilee. The prin
cipal difficulty, however, is the fact
that the Treves coat is said to be of
silk and it is rather difficult to re
concile the material with the habits
of Him who denounced the wearers
ofmirole and fine linen. - Lincoln
THE Charleston, C. S., News and

I. closing his speech at Rutland,
Vt:, on Saturday, before a gathering

most affectionable these comrades
of war who are before me to-day.
Let them abide in honor in all
your communities. Let them not
be forgotten. Let them be the il
luminated and inspiring pages of
your state history, and then, what
ever shock may come to us in the
future, whenever the hand ol
anarchy or disorder shall be raised,
whenever foreign powers shall seek
to invade the rights or liberties of
this great people, there will be
found again an impenetrable bul
wark in the brave hearts of sturdy
and patriotic people."
THE TIN-PLATE SITU At ION.
The American Manufacturer, in
an editorial, says:
"It is folly for any one to assert
that we are not now making tin
plate, or.thatin all probability we
will not make in the very near fu
ture much more than the minimum
amount mentioned in the tin plate
clause of the McKinley act." It
then give the capacity of mills
now at work as tUTiO tons, while
works actually in progress will
bring the yearly make up to 33,."()0
tons. So far most of the mills have
decided to build on the modern
Welsh plans and improve them
afterward, as our rolling nulls are
as :m" 1 if not betterthan the Welsh.
These parties will strive to make
improvements in the tin house.
Others are trying to start de novo,
and by the application of new
principles substitute machinery for
hand labor.
Our London contemporary, Iron,
after mentioning the feeling in
usually well-informed circles that
if the McKinley TaritT is allowed to
remain in lorce, uie loss ui un-
American market for British-made
tin-plates is only a question of time,
and counting up the capacity ot
the works now in operation, adds:
"Hut the Yankees are not only
going to make their own tin plates,
they are going to show us how tin
plates should be made. Messrs.
Norton Bros of Chicago, alluding
to their preparations, write as fol
low: 'Yon would see,' at their es
tablishment, 'a small plant of the
apparatus used for tinning by the
Lnglish metiiod. We took pain to
get the best machinery used there.
Fair work can be done by it; but we !
are not very proud of it, except as
an example to shun. When you
see it in operation you will not
think it strange that weare very con
fident of our ability to devise ma
chinery that will do the work bet
ter, and we are already construct
ing machines to work in a more
American fashion.' In these re
upi'cts our American cousins may
be riding the high horse somewhat
but is there no direction in which
our tin plate makers could improve?
AVe think this question may be
worth their consideration."
Abstaining entirely from any
predictions as to the future of tin
plate, either in this country or in
others, we wish to ask such of our
readers as are prejudiced against
the tin-plate clause in the McKinley
bill if they do not think, with the
manufactures of two countries try
ing to devise improved machinery
and processes, we are not likely to
obtain better and cheaper tin plate
than if the manufacturers of only
one country continued to hold the
entire trader
