The wisdom of j the measure has been vindicated in a direct and palp-ible way. Trade has been made freer, and at the same time protection has been made more elfective. The importa-. tion of foreign products of a non- cempetitive nature is facilitated rather than hindered, while the home market is carefully reserved for the home producer whenever he can supply what is wanted. That is what was promised by the udvo cates of the McKinley bill. They felt confident that it would prove to be a blessing to the country, and nine lias snown mat tney wert right. The evidence is positive and conclusive in support of the propo sition that the new law has not harmed the country in any partic ular, but has benefited it in several ways. Our foreign trade for the last li. sea l year was trie largest in all the history of the country. That does not look as if we were being shut out of desirable markets by our tariff policy. It indicates that we are extending our commerce without sacrificing the advantage of our protective system, and that the duties have been decreased in such a form as lo give the people the whole gain in the inalter, Globe-Democrat. FAinBANK&CO. CHICAGO. i The eight-hour la w passed by the legislature last winter has con tributed more to unsettle business. and occasioned more comment on the part of our people than any law enacted tor some tune. It appears to us that the measure was tin tiinelv and. for several reasons, ob jectionable. We believe that it is an jnjustice to the industrial interests of our state to force upon our industries a law of this kind, when states all around u adhere to the old prac tice. It cannot do otherwise, in view of this, than discurajfe manu facturing industries and disparage business enterprises -etierall v. This is plainly demonstrated in the case ol tne smelting works at Omaha. That enterprise, if it were not already established, would, in view ol the present law, never be established iu Omaha. Then again, our state is too young ana not sufficiently ad vanced to hazard its interests on a law of this kind. If such a radical eleparture from custom is to be in dulged in, we advise that the ex periment be inaugurated by states 2; Stanton 3 I better nrenared to sacrifice their in- 2Thayer ft , t . '. . ' ; i i nomas i.iunm. !.. We believe that the law was never passed by the alliance legislature for the benefit of the laboring class, but as a bid for their votes for the alliance ticket. This is conclusively proven when they insert exception al clauses, in which farmers are allowed a chance to hold the hired help employed by them. to mate defe as wbife as Ite sun ' ukh your vflrlc as sootf as tegun.. . claus soap is tiolwq fiat Will ao it. my once oeugnt a you never win rue ir..

The only true test of any law lies in its practical enforcement, and tins is particularly applicable to tariff legislation. It is impossible to tell in advance how a given act is going to work, so much depends upon circumstances. The only safe course is to wait and see what the ettects are helore pronouncing judgment. That is what the peo ple should have done in the case of the McKinley bill. They were asked to give it a fair trial and to render a verdict upon it accord- in": to rts results, lhe tact is now plain that they actea too hastily in condemning it. We are informed by- the official returns that the mis chief which was predicted has not come to pass. The democratic talk about the destruction of ourforeijni trade lias turned out to be stuff and nonsense. We are both buying and selling more than we were be fore this law was passed. During the last seven months our imports have increased $22.fl00,000 and our exports $28,000,000 over the corres ponding period of the previous year. The amount of duties col lected has decreased, by reason of the enlargement of the free list; but that means a saving to the people. while the revenue still remains large enough to meet all the ordi nary demands of the government. This is a kind of testimony that can not be impeached. It repre sents the actual operations of a law which has been more lied about, perhaps, than any other piece of legislation that was ever enacted. The people of other nations have not quit purchasing our products in auy degree because of this law; ou the contrary, their purchases have increased. We are taking, We clip the following from the New York Tribune which will ap ply pretty well to things as they now are in Omaha: "There is nothing in the coustitu tion or laws of the United States, or of any state or territory thereof, that says one man mav get rich and another shall not. But how about the edict of a gang of irresponsible. conspirators airainst the laws and peace of the commonwealth that issues, aye, and enforce, an im perial ukase like this: A. B. shall not work in New York till C. D. does what E. F. orders in Maine? If this be liberty, kindly define slavery." The present talk about the al leged impossibility of establishing the tin plate industry in this coun try is the same kind that was heard when we proposed to manufacture our own steel rails; out tne steei rail mills were built, and are now supplying the demand at greatly reduced prices. Judge Tekkell, of Texas, is cor rect in saying that the alien land law of that state is in harmony with the national democratic platforms of 1884 and 1888. Every law of a foolish or mischievous description is in harmony with one or more democratic platforms. Take your prescriptions to Brown & Barrett's.they dispense pure med icines. . tt Postponed.
