What Mary Meant When Slio Said
"Kami '
KANSAS, NOVIUIltU 4, lH'JO,
(The women did it John bhcrman.)
From Kansaa City Star.
I was oue of them "fool farmors;" yes, I'll
own it like a man;
There was plouty of ua fashioned on the
sumo peculiar plan;
Aud I've lived nut here in Kansas more (ban
five and twenty years,
A growin' poor and poorer as It certainly
appears,
I seldom read the newspapers; I worked
too hard for that.
And never kuew why 1 got Kan while other
men got fat;
I didn't fool with politics; I had too much
to do.
But I always voted as I shot and as they
told me to.
The day More election, jest Imagine my
distiess
When I kutched my wife a-reidin' now
whatever would you guoas?
A free-trade publication, aud, to make it
worse, rbe said
She'd read it regular each night before
she went to bed.
And, do you know, that wife of mine jest
faced me up and down
That (armors slave to make a few monopo
lists iu tuwul1
I always try to get around these wimu do
mestic spats,
But wheu I praised protection and she
laughed sad. answered "rata."
I bristled np; it kindled all the sentiments
of strife
To thiuk this free trade stuff should be cor
rupter of my wife;
I quit her then snd there before her argu
ment was thtougb,
As every good protection iat makes it a
rule to du,
That night we had a ramp fire aud our con
gressman was there.
We gave him "John Brown's Body" whuu
be went to take the chair;
I wore my old blue uniform to spite the
Democrats,
But all the time I wondered what my Mary
meant by "ltats."
Our Congressman was eloquent, he made
a stirrin' speech;
I could almost see the battle's smoke and
hear the bullets scrvooh.
And when he bade its vote as we bad shot
at Malvern Hill,
We rose with one accord aud cried with ono
acclaim, "we will."
We sang the good old war songs and we ate
a mess o'besns,
Aud we passed the evuuiu'.pleasautly, recall-
In lilooily scenes;
Aud we took the straightout tickets aud we
pinned 'em on our hats,
But all the time I wondered what my Mary
meuut by "Huts."
When I reached home I noticed that my
Maiy wore a stuilo,
Wbioh soemed to me as indicating storms
ahead or bilo;
To head her off I said: 'You'll call me
early, mother dear,
"For to-morrer'l be the liveliest day free
trade will have this year."
Next mornin' jest at Bun-up, as I woke and
rubbed niv eyes.
A-wonderin' what she meant by "Ruts" I
saw to my surprise
My clothes and boots and bats all ranged
in order on the floor.
And boariug each a card I'd swear I never
saw before,
My flannel shirt displayed this sign: "Taxed
vt per cent,;
My trousers "Taxed 100" so this was what
"KhIb" meant;
My vest said "Taxed 100" aud my shoes
"taxed an;"
My coat aud hat "200" with "Protuotion
makes us thrive."
I went to fill the basin aud I noticed
as 1 came
Taxed 45 per oont." Oreat Scott; the
towel said the samel
Tbe soap was marked at "20:" as I dropped
it on tbe floor,
I ebanoed to see a scuttle full of ooals chalked
"24."
I paused into tbe kitchen and it gives me
pain to state
That my wife bad on woollen drese
stamped "only 58;"
And in shooing out a guinea she made a lit
tie dive
Which showed a pair of stockings with a
card marked "35."
Tbe baby in bis little bed was lyia' fast
asleep;
I always held the little obap aa most un
common cheap;
But when I saw them cards on blanket, pil
low, crib and sheet,
I felt a lump rise in my throat; I knew
that I was beat,
No matter where I went I struck them pes
kv little liuns.
The itove, the piatoi, the knives, the forks,
the window sasn and blinds,
The scissors, needles, thread, all bore that
terrible per oont.;
Bigosb, I didu t care to see what card was
on tbe rent.
That was tbe soberest meal I ever ate in all
my life;
And as I left the table, in remarking to my
wife
That I was goin' to the polls, she helped me
wlln my coat,
And said, "I reckon, John, I needn't tell
yon bow to vote."
I walked down to my votin' place; It looked
like every yard
Was full of farmin' implements which bore
. a little card.
And seemed to say from plough to spade
from tlirestier down to axe,
Good morning, John, and don't forget tbe
tariff is a tax.
I voted straight O, yes, no doubt of that;
I voted strtlgut,
But not exaotly in the way expected of my
state;
And I showed the boys the little cards pro
vided by my wife;
That night our Congressman took leave
of public lite.
I was one of tb.m "fool farmers" durin' five
and twenty years;
But I've learned a little common senso, aa
doubtless now appears.
Yon can run and tell McKinley, and say
don't lorget to state.
That we've voted out in Kansas, aud we've
voted darned near straight.

Two Wicked Women.
Albany Ilorald.
A pair of modestly attired women with an
unlimited ainouut of "convoisational pow
ers," have been stopping In this city for a
few days, plying thoir vocation as timber
locators. They solicited business from
women chiefly, snd promised to locate their
victims on flue timber claims for modest
fee of f5, holding out brilliant in
duoements to make them rich in a short
period of time, in a manner thafwould have
excited the jealousy of Captain Btone or any
other of the timber laud swindler who bave
worked this racket threadbare.
The two women seem, however, possessed
of a faculty of gleaning successfully in the
field gone over, and by reducing the price
from 150 to $75 they bave found a few
victims in Albany, who will probably a little
later discover that thoy have paid a couple
of female "locators" a fat fee for the privi
lege of buying as timber land some burned
mountain quarter section of land upon which
after having seen it they would be unwilling
to pay taxes.
The most dishonest part of the work of
these timber swindlers is tbat they usually
show tbe investor some desirable piece of
timlier land, but when they make the loca
tion the unsophisticated buyer finds tbat th
laud they hare secured is perhsps in another
section and contains no timber save buge
lot ol bnrnod logs and a few dead snags.
There is pleuty of good timber land in
Oregon, but it is not often obtained by pay
ing fees to timber locators, whether they be
nn n or women. Iu fact those functionaries,
who have swindled unwary people out of
thousands of dollars in this state during tbe
past year or two, are to be shunned as up
right people would shun the devil.
What a Fall Is There!
John I. Iugslls, U. 8. Senator from Kan
sas aud Vice President of the body of which
he is s member, bas long been one of the
most conspicuous figure in Washington,
lie has thro times been seut to tbe senate
but always with a suspicion that be got there
by mouey paid by corporations that had nse
for his tougue, aud a very foul tongue It was.
On the eve ol tbe Chicago convention he
telegraphed a trusted delegate to "put np a
Western Grand Army man and a New York
money bag and they would bv elected do
matter who they were." It proved that
there was more truth than poetry In his
message. In an address to Irish delegate
not long ago be denounced the Irish govern
ment aa ouly Iugalls can denounce anything,
aud he said tbe people of the United State
"had lived to regret Waterloo." Since then
be has published a magazine article in
which be says that: "Pure politic is an
irridosceut dream. Government is fore.
Politio is a battle for supremacy. Tartie
are tbe armies. Tbe Decalogue and the
Golden Ku!e bave no place in a political
campaign, The object is success. To expel
the party in power the aim. In war it I
lawful to deceive the enemy, to hire Hes
sians, to purchase moroenaiios, to mutilate,
to kill, to destroy. The commander who
lost a battle through the activity of bis moral
nature would be the derision and the jest ot
history. The modern cant about the oorrup.
tion in politics is fatiguing In the extreme.
It proceeds from tbs tea-custard and syllabub
dilletanteism, tbe frivolous and desultory
sentimentalism ot Epioenes." When that
was written a few months ago Kansas was
the Republican Banner State, but it bas now
vomited Ingalls ont of it mouth and there is
not much syllabub dilletanteism (whatever
that may be supposed to be) nor many friv
olous Epicene there either. 8. F. Newt-Letter.
Sunday Welcome: Wa. Guthrie, a spor-tively-incliued
barber wbo works on this side
of the Willamette river, and heretofore slept
in East Portland when business engage
ments at the card table didn't keep him over
night in Portland on Thanksgiving Day left
his faithful wife and five children, and cau
tioned the storekeepers not to trust her in
future on his accouut. When Guthrie mar
ried bis wife she bad about a thousand dol
lars. It is unnecessary to say tbat she has
not got it now, or ber husbands desertion
would bave been deferred. From all ac
counts ibe mother and children are to be
congratulated on the scparture of Mr. Wm.
Guthrie, and although perhaps not believed
by them in their loneliness, there was never
the lea more cause for them to offer thank
oo the 27th of last month when be (ought
new bed and board, than fell to tbe lot ol
any other family in Eait Portland-at least
so say ber relatives.
The Yaqulna Republican say that the
Oregon Pacifio company is taking out the
machinery of the old tug Favorite, which will
be overhauled and converted into a com
pounded engine, and then placed In tbe new
schooner to be built by tbe company. It bat
not yet been decided where the schooner wll
be built, but it is probable it will be don at
mill 4 or some other point on tbe bay. The
dimensions are, ICO feet keel, U feet beam,
14 feet depth of hold, with a capacity of
seven or eight hundred tons harden.
Albany Democrat: Mr. J. P. Bobertaon,
of 8alem, informs ns that steps are being
taken taken to organize a State Farmer Al
liance in this state. There is great restless
ness among farmers of tbe northwest at the
vicioui policy ot high taxation to persUU
eutly promoted by the Republican party.
This policy seems destined to prove to be
the rock upon which the party will yet
founder.
It is claimed tbat Russell Jr. Co., manu
facturers in Masillon, Ohio, have reduced
the wsgea of twenty-three democratio em
ploye because they voted for Warwick in
stead of McKinley. This caused deinocratto
farmers to institute a boycott agalust Russell
engines and thresher. Messrs. RusseU i
Co. must begin to realize tbat there are two
parties in tht United States.
