WHO IS RESPONSIBLE.
That the farmers or the United
States as a class' have a grievance
no candid man will deny. That the
miiimnc nf tnilino- neople of this
lnuiivn o i i
country, as well as the farmers, have
a grievance no candid man will
deny.
And -that the farmers, and the
toiling millions who earn their living
by other occupations than that of
farming have a right to seekand de
mand a redress of their grievances
no candid man will deny, either.
If the govermental policies oper
ate to the detriment ot the farm
ers, and in the interest of other
classes, it is not only the right, but
the duty of the farmers to demand
that such policy shall cease and a
policy of honesty and fair play be
adopted in its stead. That man or
class who is used for the benefit of
other men or class, who labors and
sees the proceeds of his labor taken
without an equivalent to enrich
some one else is simply a slave by I
whatever name he may be called.
And this is what the toiling masses
of this country, farmers and oth
ers, (for the farmers alone have
not been the sufferers) have seen.
They are now seeking relief, and in
some sections have effected organi
zations for that purpose.
It seems to us that the first inquiry
when seeking relief would be to as
certain if possible the cause of dis
tress, and this being ascertained,
then try for the removal of the cause.
The physician seeks the cause of an
ailment, and removes the cause if he
can to cure his patient.
So the farmer or other toiler who
suffers from oppressive burdens im
posed and struggles to lighten or
throw them off is not moving in the
right way when he attacks the Dem
ocratic party, which had no more to
do with the cause of his complaint
than it had to do with last spring's
overflow of the Mississippi river,
and the destruction that it caused.
It does not require any special in
vestigation to establish who is re
sponsible, for that is known of all
men.
There is not a single complaint of
all those made by the farmers and
others in this country who earn
their bread in the sweat of their
faces for which the Republican
party is not solely responsible, and
it is also a fact that the farmers and
other toilers, especially in the North state will be irreparable. A Demo
and West, are very largely respon- cratic ticket which goes into the con-
sible for bringing about the condi
tions from which they have suffered
and still suffer, by giving their en
couragement and support to the
very policy which has brought
so many of them to ruin. If it
hadn't been for their encouragement
and support, this baleful policy
which has brought disaster to them
would neve have been established,
and if it had been, could not have
lasted through one administration
without their endorsement.
But it has lasted for thirty years,
and has grown in the magnitude of
its iniquity until it has become a
colossus of imposition and oppres
sion compared with what it was
twenty-five years ago, and all this
time thousands upon thousands of
good, honest toilers on farm and in
shop, impelled by some bund, in-
mm - ; r
tatuauon, nave ucc
. i i . u., nir it- thpir
aid, comtort ana support, cutimji
bearing in the briars that scourged
their own backs.
Hpfv th most keen-eved to
int tr, nn sinffle legislative enact-
I
ment of the past thirty years, of
Wh the nftonlehave cause to com-
olain for which the Republican f
nnrtv i; not directlv
and solely

We defy the most keen-eyed to
point out one single legislative en
actment, of which the people com
plain, for which th,e Democratic
party is responsible
We defy the most keen-eyed to
pqint out one single instance in
which the Republican party has giv
en relief, or has tried to give relief,
to the people from the heavy bur
dens which oppressed them. And
we defy the most keen-eyed to point
to one single instance where the De-
1 1 A.
mnrr.itic Dartv has enaeavoieu to

give renei wnen u was,
and thwarted by the so-called Ke-
publican statesmen.
Speaker Reed, in his campaign
cnPrhes in Maine, and in speeches
"l '
dn flinnnntlv boasted that the Re-
oi.i., 'rt j
nnhliran nartv was a party whose
t r j . i
Representatives in Congress "did
hUlllCLUlllg. i J, I
u: ve t ir iliri ' hat
is the kind of representatives they
TViPcuflWino- millions, who for
thirty years have been paying trib
ute in the sweat of their fore-
a ,
heads, to the favored few and the
farmer, whose substance has been
paten ud. and whose broad acres
have been shingled over with mort
gages to enable him to live, can bear
testimony to the fact that the Re-
rmhlirnn nartv is a Dartv which
i ' - i j
"does something."
While the masses of the honest
toilers of the land have grown poorer,
the gigantic fortunes which have
been accumulated by the few favored
ones bears further testimony to that
fart. There is amnle evidence of
this on all sides, so much that there
is no one who is disposed to dispute
Mr. Reed's assertion. Yes, that
party has done something, has done
a great deal and verv much that the
farmers of this country, now that
their eyes have begun to open and j
thev see with improved vision, wish
that thev had left undone. While
this party remains in power the peo
ple who complain, farmers and others,
need not expect the relief they seek.
They may elect some members to
Congress but they alone can never
effect it. The shortest and only
effective way to secure that relief is
by co-operating with the Democratic
party which has honestly and faith-
fullv ODDOsed all the legislation of
which the people complain, which
has faithfully labored for their relief,
and which is earnestly laboring for it
to-day. The man who seeks relief
and turns his face away from this
party shows poor judgment.
MINOR MENTION.
The Charleston News Courier,
a bitter ODDonent of Tillman and
the Tillman movement until the
September convention spoke and
made Tillman the nominee of the
Democratic party, protests against
the movement to put a straight-o:it
ticket in the field now, "as mere fol
ly and madness." "Success," it truly
says, "can only be accomplished by
disrupting, nay destroying the Dem
ocratic party. The party that de
feats the regular Democratic ticket
at this election must do so by the aid
of the Republicans, and this, in
the lieht ot past experience, is
enough of itself to condemn
the whole movement." This is the
view that every Democrat in South
Carolina who is governed by reason
and not passion and prejudice will
take of it, for whatever may have
been the merits of the contention up
to the time when the Democratic
convention met and spoke for the
Democracy of the State, it is too l ite
now to revive the controversy, am!
whatever the result may be, with two
tickets in the field, both claiming to
be Democratic, the injury to the
test depending for its main support
and basing its hopes for success on
negro votes, can't be much of a
Democratic ticket, to say the least of
it. If the "Tillman ticket nominated
by the September convention does
not represent better Democracy and
better patriotism than that Democ
racy and patriotism must be at a
pretty low ebb in the Palmetto State.
The farmers in northern New
York and that section of country are
not in a delightful frame of mind
over the passage of the McKinley
bill. The potato crop throughout
that section has been very much in
jured where not totally ruined by ex
cessive wet weather, making the peo
ple dependant for their potato sup
plies for consumption and for seed
I upon importations from Canada. Be-
- ,.e
Canadian potatoes could be bought
for htty cents a ousnei, wmu. uw
cost from seventy-hve cents
to a dollar, wniie no uuu
... l 1
is protected. Potatoes can't be ship-
ped from the west Decause rauroau
freightage is too high, so the West,
ern potato grower aenves no ueucux ,
trom tne so-caneu uiuictnuu,
the Eastern farmer, who has no po
tatoes to sell but must buy, not only
derives no benefit but has the in
creased cost to pay in supplying his
needs. The same is true of
seea peas, Deans,, ocu., io.
seedsmen ot tnat section uepeuu al
most exclusively upon Canada, the
...
seed grown there being better ana
preferred to the home grown seed.
It is said that all this is having its
, , r I
effect upon tne Kepuoncan iarniciS
of Northern New York and that sec-
tion of country, and that the result
'
lprtion will surprise I

Dr. R. N. Norment, of Robeson
county, is one of those patriotic gen-
men who, "at the solicitation of
many friends," is willing to sacrifice
himself and take his chances of be
ing run over and mashed in the race
for Congress in this district. He has
therefore at the "solicitation of the
numerous friends," aforesaid, an
nouncecr'himself as an independent
candidate for Congress. The Dr. is
a man of considerable nerve to thus
rush to the front, and is said to be
somewhat of a hustler when he gets
among his folks. Hen; il.vi s
been somewhat willing to serve his
country on a sugnt persuasion, Dut
some how or other the public has
never hankered enough for his dis

way to hunt him up. He generally
hunts himself up as he has done in
this instance.

"The Question has two phases,
nnntinnA Mr Chamberlain. "In the
rst place it is claimed by the United
States that seal fishing by British or
foreign vessels in Behring Sea is
ruining the industry and that if it
continues the seals will become ex
tinct. It is not only to the interest
of the United States, but of Great
Britain and all the civilized countries
to prevent such a contingency, and
accordingly Ubrd Salisbury has pro
posed a temporary agreement to last
for two vears by which the fishing
shall be prohibited within ten miles
Qf tne sh0re or seven miles beyond
the three-mile international limit
"I believe that no official answer
has ever been made to this offer. At
all events no such answer appears in
the published correspondence, al
though it may be inferred from a
passage in one of the letters of the
Secretary of State that the offer has
been refused by the United States.
No reason appeared for such refusal
and no discussion as to the ade-
nuacv of the proposal has ever taken
. .. 1 u
place, in tne correspondence li..
question assumed a new phase wnen
a claim was maue on ucuau ui
United States for territorial jurisdic-
tion over the wh0le or the greater
part of the immense ocean known as
Behring Sea.
"To this claim, which, to say tne
least, appears an unusual one in in
ternational proceedings, Lord Salis
bury replied by an offer to refer the
whole matter to the arbitration of a
friendly power. No reply has been
made to the proposition, although
the offer was made last August. It
would have been impossible for a
friendly nation to go further in the
endeavor to settle a difficult ques
tion. We h ive met the United States
on the question of mutual interest,
also on the larger question of terri
torial jurisdiction. I cannot believe
that public opinion in this country
could expect or desire more.
DECAY OF THELAB0R KNIGHTS.
The Members In Troy Beduced Prom 30
OOO to 5.O0O.
Troy Dispatch to N. Y. Sun.
Three years ago D. A. No. 08,
Knights of Labor, had a member
ship of over 30,000. They purchased
the old State armory property tor a
general headquarters and money
flowed into the coffers of the order.
To-day the membership is less than
5,000. There are no headquarters
and little or no funds in the treasury.
Patrick Mahar, at one time master
workman of the Teamster s Assem
blv. said to-night when the question
was asked where the K. ot L. leaders
in this, section made their headquar
ters
"Thev have no headquarters, and
what few remain in the order here
abouts generally congregate in Fee-
han's barber shop. Three years ago
the orde1- was very strong, but it has
dwindled down to next to nothing
Gn, the other ay t was reading in
i the DaDers a
list of the assemblies
said to be represented at the con
ference of the farmers and Knights
at the American House last Friday.
In that list were assemblies that
have been defunct for at least two
years. The teamsters belong to the
order no longer, but have joined the
Federation of Trades, and the iron
workers have formed an assembly of
their ownj"
A printer employed on a Republi
can weekly, who was standing by,
remarked: "Our assembly has dis
banded. We only organized to pre
vent the rats in the Times office from
organizing an assembly, and they
sent in a petition for a charter three
hours after the filing ot our appuca
tion. A rat Drinter in Glen's Falls
is the M. W. in this district
Railroad men at the depot were
seen and thev said: "The boys are
abandoning the order. For months
everydepartment in the service have
been honeycombed with men who
have learned the names of every
Knight. These are in the possession
of the officials of the road, ana tney
will leave the order sooner tnan give
uo their iobs. There are very few
Knights on the Hudson River divi
sion. The bulk of them are on the
Central, and they will quit very
quickly. The or"4er has been of no
use to the men. A little clique made
considerable money, and we have
heard that Detroit stove men kept
up the boycott on the Fuller & War
ren Company s stoves by remuner
ating certain Knights."

EXTRAVAGANT BOUCICAULT.
The Playwright's TJtter Ignorance of the
Value of Money.
New York World.
Those who were personally, inti
mate with the late Dion Boucicault
and knew something about his per
sonal expenditures assert that he
was perhaps one of the most extrav-
agant men who ever lived. He had
no regard whatever tor money anu
alwavs lived up to his income, even
when his income had reached the
marvelous figure of $5,000 a week.
A story is told of his going into a
champagne house and asking for a
certain brand of champagne. He
was told that the brand in question
was not imported for the American
market'and that if he wanted any it
would have to be brought over es-
pecially for him, and that they could
not bring over less than 100 cases.
The 100 cases of wine would cost
something like $3,000. But this
calculation did npt deter Mr. Bouci
calt in the least. He ordered the
wine, and four or five weeks subse
quently the 100 cases aggregating
1,200 bottles were delivered at his
apartments, which were then in Fif
teenth street, near Fifth avenue.
No one ever knew him to haggle
over a price or even to ask what the
price of an article would be when he
left the order for it with the store
keeper. When he was liwing in
New York it was his habit to go to a
manufacturer of fine furniture and
order the most expensive articles
and never know what they would
cost him until the bill came in. This
sort of reckless expenditure began
with his success as a playwright with
'London Assurance, and continued
until four or five years ago, when
his receipts fell off so considerably
as to make the continuance of it im-
ccihlp Ac i vonno- man in Ton-
possible. As a young man in l.on
don he is said to have been one of

Radam's Microbe Killer
Exterminates the Microbes and onves them out of tin

ache or pain. No matter what the disease, whether n
simple case of Malaria Fever or a combination .f dis
eases, we cure them all at the same time, as vie treat ni
