FOR THE LAKOICKK AXl KAtiMKi:.
iSSS.
Hakhimii k;, Sept. J.'iul,
Editors Democrat :
I have recently read an article in the
Herald-Disseminator, in which I find the
following statement :
"We have labored and expect to contl.iue
to labor, consistently conscientiously, and
faithfully in the interests of the laboring
and farming community of the country.for
our interests are identical with theirs. Hut
we are publishing a political newspaper and
in that capacity it is our imperitive duty as
well as privilege to discuss political issues."
This statsment appears to have been
made bv the Disseminator as a reply to some
criticisms of its course on the tariff ques
tion made by the Pacific Farmer. It does
not appear in the article from which the
above extract was taken just what the con
tention between the two papers was, nor is
that fact of anv consequence with reference
to what I want to sav in this article. I do
not object to the Disseminator being a po
litical newspaper, nor do I deny the right
or duty of its editor to discuss political
issues. In fact there has been a very gen
cral complaint among its readers that it has
not discussed the real vital issues during
this campaign. But what I want to more
particularly say is this : For some years
past the Disseminator and its friends have
caused the impression to prevail through
out this county that that paper was the or"
gan of organized farming interests.and that
it would devote its best energies to the pro
motion of these interests in such a non
partisan manner a6 to meet the hearty ap"
proval of all farmers without regard to par
ty. Under these circumstances, what has
been its course .' So far as it has expressed
an opinion during this campaign in regard
to the issues of the tariff, that opinion has
been every time adverse to the interests of
the farmers. Every time it lias spoken.lts
words have tended to strengthen the tm
nopolicsof the country that do now hold
and have for years held, the interests of
the farmers and laboring men in th
grasp. I have been a laborer and farmer
all my life, and know something of the
burdens which protected monopolies and
"trusts" impose upon the laboring and farm
ing classes. And while farmers are only
common people, the Disseminator need not
presume upon their entire ignorance of the
various questions involved in the discussion
of the tariff issue. Every intelligent farm
er knows that it is a serious detriment to
his interests to collect large sums of money
amounting to eight or nine millions dollars
everv month more than is needed to meet
the expenses of the government, and then
lock this money up in the treasury where
no man can use it This makes mone
scarce, an unwarranted contraction of th
money of the people. Every sane farmer
knows, that, as a class, seven out of every
ten farmers are al ways in debt. Now.when
the government contracts its circulatin
medium an injury is done to the debtor
class, for this contraction, while, limiting
the number of dollars in circulation, increas
es the purchasing power of the dollar, thus
making it more difficult to get possession
of. Now, how does the Disseminator pro
pose to remedy the evil of hoarding the
people's money up. Every man in his righ
mind, and unlnfiucnced by his party preju
dice, will say, "reduce the taxation under
which this surplus increases." But the Dis
seminator has two ways which it recoin
mends to reduce the surplus, neither of
which is in the interest of the farmer. One
is to continue to collect the high war cus
1 toms taxes and spend the money in large,
and, what it calls, liberal appropriations for
various public improvements. The other
Is to buy outstanding bonds r.ot now due, at
a big premium for the bondholder.and con
tltuie to collect the high taxes on the labor
ing people and farming classes of the coun
try. Under no circumstances does that
paper propose to reduce the duties on the
necessaries of life in the way of food and
clothing. It says it will labor consistently
and conscientiously In the interests of the
farming and laboring interests, but when it
is proposed to reduce the tax on lumber, nn
article essential to the farmer, it objects,
objects to putting salt on the free list.
opposes, just like the party it belongs to, all
reduction of the protection system. In no
way would It be possible to labor more
"conscientiously" for the interest of the
farmer and laboring man than to secure
the putting of jute sacks, salt and lumber
on the free list, and yet the Disseminator
opposes all this and stands by its platform
that declares it favors the repeal of the en
tire internal revenue system rather than
surrender any jutrt of the protective sys
tem. To "repeal the entire internal reve
nue system" means to make whisky, to.
bacco and oleomargarine free, and that Is
what the Disseminator would do rather than
surrender any part of the protective system.
Does that paper call this laboring in the
in'xrest of the farmer ? Does it think they
are all Idiots to be wheedled and deceived
as it chooses ? No longer need it attempt
to make people believe that It is the organ
of organized farming interests in this coun
try. I have no hesitation in saying that to
oppose the attempc now being made to 6C-
ure a reduction of the war taxes is to de-
lare one's self as an open enemy to the
farmers best interests. It is not enough
for a newspaper tu merely announce ihal
it is in favor of the best interests of the
farmer. It acts will show whether that is
true. Farmer.
The New York Herald says: "It is a
fact that many Democrats are very anx
ious that this Mayorality muddle shall be
settled at once, so that they may know
where they stand. There are certain in-
ividuals who talk of 'trading' for Republi
can votes, but it is well settled that there
will be less of that this year than at any
preceding election. The national and State
Democratic tickets were never so strong,
d 90,000 majority in New York City
alone for the Cleveland-Thurman electors
is regarded as a shamefully meager figure."
The Gazette announces that it will here
after support the Democratic doctrines
and candidates. It has always been a
stanch Republican paper. Its reasons are
that the Republican party ahvays.untilthis
year, favored a judicious reduction of the
tariff, but now it is in the hands of unscrup
ulous monopolists. It also thinks President
Cleveland's Administration has been for
the best interests of the country.
While weeping crocodile tears over
Cleveland's contribution to the campaign
fund Republicans managers are inquiring
under their breath whether Candidate and
Millionaire Morton has come down as
handsomely as was promised.
The Chinese government has lejectcd
the treaty. Now what has become of ihe
hole in which the president had been
placed by the senate. Pluck is good. Luck
is good. Both overcometh all.
