fittocrat TIIK FARMKKTINTKKKSTS. The f.ithjr Sipi, a newspaper devoted to the interests of organised labor.and pub lished at the home of Harrison has this lo ay about how farmers arc affected by the tariff : "Suppose he builds a house. He must pay a tariff of jo per cent on the bricks for foundation and chimneys ; $2 per 1,000 feet on every board and stick of timber that goes Into it ; 35 cents per 1,000 on the shingles to cover It ; 1 cents per pound on the nails ; 6S cents per box of fifty feet on common window glass ; jO per cent on his putty ; 45 percent on his locka.scrcens and hinges ; J5 cents per gallon on his lin seed oil .and 3 cents per pound on his white lead ; on lime lOper cent,and on aash cord 35 per cent. If there is any material that enters into the composition of that bouse which has escaped taxation it was certainly an unintentional omission, unless it may be the and used in making the mortar, and doubtless the Senate will remedy this in its proposed substitute for the Mills bill. "Having his house built, the next thing Is to furnish it. This he does by laying down carpet -hemp at 8 cents per square yard, three-ply at 35 percenter Axmlnster at 5O per cent ; his stoves come burdened with a tax of t j cents, and the pots and skillets 3 cents per pound ; his tables,stands chair bedsteads, bureaus, lounges, etc. come in at a uniform tax of 35 per cent, lie gets his dishes. Including china and porce lain ware, at .sOper cent ; his glassware at 4O per cent ; his spoons, knives and forks, clock, shears, scissors, Urittannla ware, broom, shotgun, steel, gun wads, all go in at a uniform tax of 3$ per cent ; his earthen and stone ware cost him 25 per cent ; sauce pans 3 cents per pound, and shot i cents per pound. For his shovel and tong.meal selves, lamp, lampchimheys and shades mouse traps and lanterns, he pays 45 per cent. Ilisblankets,ticking and tablecloths are assessed at 4O per cent ; but he must pay 5O per cent on his razor and queens ware. Baskets, blacking and brushes he can get at a uniform tax of 30 per cent blueing at 2(1 per cent : common soap at 20 pe' cent, and toilet soap at 15 cents per pound ; looking glasses "from 4 cents to 35 cents per square foot. 'If there Ls anything omitted in the furn Pure of a house in the above list it is the fault of the writer and not of the law. Suppose the farmer has built his house and furnished it, and undertakes to supply his farm with the implements, tools and ap pliances necessary to operate it economi cully. He can buy at a uniform tax of 45 per cent all his pade,hovels,square,steel yards, planes, scythes, augers, axes, awls, brace, rules, bells, corn-knives, hammers hatchets, hay-knives,hoes, pitchfork. plow s and drawing knives. His iron wedges and carriage bolts pay a tariff of 2 ' 2 ccn0 per pound, his horseshoes 2 cents per pound.his rope 36 cents, and his wrought and horse shoe nails 4 cents per pound. On his cross cut saws he pays tO cjnts per foot, and his hand and buck suwi and grain bags 4O per cent ; the bits for his brace pay a tariff of 50 percent; his salt 12 cents per iOO pounds ; his hames, trace, dog and halter chains,and saddles and harness 35 per cent And so on, ad infinitum, from the smallest item to the largest machinery tax,taxfax Nothing that a farmer raise,or possibly can raise, escapes. "Having built his house and furnished it and supplied his farm with tools and appli ances, he undertakes to clothe himself and family. At this point we are so lost amid the intricacies of this studied effort to tax at from one-fourth to one-half its value everything indispensable to a house or farm, that we find ourselves unable to rise to its suoiime , neiznts or descend tons never ending depths. Suffice it to say that there t nothing worn f rom the top of the head to the sole of the foot of man, woman or child that has not been forced to contribute to the payment of pensions and the nation al debt, and add its per cent to the enrich ment of the railroad, trust and syndicate magnates of the country. Not only does this devil-fish inclose in its grasp everything that man, woman or child can wear for comfort or convenience.but it also includes in its folds all material out of which the simplest or more costly and complicated article of use or ornament can be made." Harrison ha written hi little letter. We are sorry t be compelled to say that it is very commonplace in every feature. The tariff question has been more ably handled by many obscure country newspapers of his own party than he himself handles it. He makes a feeble attempt to dodge the "free whisky" plank of his party's platform by saving that "we are not likely to be call ed upon, I think, to make a present choice between the surrender of the protective system and the entire repeal of the internal revenue," thus trying to cover up the fact that the party is pledged to an entire repeal of the revenue before they would surrend er any part of the protective system. Dem ocrats may well feel proud of the superior abi ity and statesmanship of Mr. Cleveland over Mr. Harrison. From the returns as far as heard from the republicans appear to have carried Maine by a somewhat lesa majority than they had in September, 1884. The esti mates made by republicans shows that they have gained on their total vote of 1884 1553 votes, while the democrats have gain ed on their total vote of 1884 I9ot votes, a net gain for the democrats in the state of 348. The republicans lost the presidency in 1884 when th.-v had 348 larger majority than they have this year. It the election indicates anything it shows that party grows weaker as it nears the presidential election. V e furnish in to day's weekly a nipple ment containing President Cleveland's let ter of acceptance. "We trust every reader of the Dsmocrat will read it carefully read it twice, then ask your republican neighbor to read it. It is plain, manly, candid.and above all it is the production of a statesman, written in the interest of th people. The man who, after reading it would call it "free trade" is an idiot. Mr. Harrison is talking buttered water melon. He said the other day that the Republican party had created the home in America. Why should he be a flapdoodle like that? Americans had homes, loved them,fiought for them.died for them, before the Republican party was ever heard of. On Saturday night Allen G.

What Is this "nervous trouble" with which so many seem now to be afflicted? If you will remember a few years age the word malaria was comparatively unknown to-day it Is as common as any word in the English language, yet this word covers only the meaning of another word ucd by our forefathers in times past. Ho it is with nervous diseases, as they and malaria are intended to cover vshat our grandfathers c tiled biliousness, and all are caused by troubles that arise from a diseased condi tion of the liver, which in performing its functions finding it cannot dispose of the bile through the ordinary channel Is com pelled to pass it off through the svtem. causing nervous troubles, malaria, bilious fever, c'c.
