It U a (act that tlilt counlrv hat not produced enough sugar to supply one third of the demand, and, white the repub Hcan party does not believe in taxing r.ecessarv articles, It advocates ttie foster- Ing bi all home productions, 11 v aid from the government beet sugar could be pro duce.1, ana this Doumy ts to encourage the growth and manufacture of this necessary of life. Mountaineer. . The "Republican party does not believe in taxing necessary articles," indeed! There is scarcely an article of necessity In the whole category of human needs that it has not taxed. It taxes iron, coal, lead, salt, lumber, binding twine, jute sacks, wool, woolen goods, cutlery, etc. And be it burned Into the very minds of the masses as contradlsllngnlshed from the classes that the leading purpose of this tax is not to raise money to run the gov ernment, but to benefit the few at the expense of the many, by giving the few the monopoly of the trade in the articles thus taxed. But If the Mountaineer and its party de sired to encourage the manufacture of beet sugar, why did they not do so by the use of the same means that they encour age the wool-grower, the woolen manu facture, the lumber king, the coal baron, the iron monopolists and other pets of the party, that It by the use of the protective tariff, A heavy duty was placed on tin to encourage the manufacture of tin. Why not place a heavy duty on sugar to en courage Its manufacture? When a duty Is placed on sugar the people pay an In creased price, but this tax. for such it is, goes Into the coffers of the government and thus becomes the property of the whole people. But when a bount; Is paid, this bounty comes out of the treasury of the United States and goes into the hands of the few producer and thus 65 millions of people are taxed to pay a bounty of 2 cents a pound on the sugar they produce. Ihe Mountaineer thinks there Is no reason to sustain the proposition made by the Democrat that "there Is just as much reason for giving a bounty to the wheat grower as to the sugar producer." Let us see. They are each American citizens, entitled to the same privileges. They are entitled to equal protection. If the sugar producer is to have a bounty be cause he can not profitably sell his sugar in competition with foreign producers, then why should not the firmer have a bounty on his wheat raising if he can not sell it profitably in competition with foreign raised wheat? The fact that foreign sugar ts brought into the home market and sold in competition with our home product while our wheat must be cent abroad, cuts no figure. If the farmer who raises wheat to soil In the Liverpool market finds It as difficult to make it profitable as the American sugar producer does who produces sugar for the home market, then the farmer has just as much right to ask for a bounty as the sugar pro ducer. Why not? Is not the farmer an equal cf the sugar man? By what parity of reasoning can it be shown that the government should throw Its fostering care around the producer who sells his product in this country, and withholds it from him who sells It in a foreign coun try? This the Monntainter can not deny. We trust the Mountaineer will not for a moment believe that the Democrat favors giving a bounty to wheat producers. We are opposed to the whole bounty system as being the most dangerous policv our goyernment could adopt, besides it is without warrant In the constitution. It is neither more nor less objectionable than the protective tnrllt system by which the many are burdened for t'.ie benefit of the few. Venezuela has declined to com into the Blaise happy family of makers of ' reciprocity treaties, Other Sou'.h American countries are likely to follow this example, and the suar coating of reciprocity with which Blaine pro posed to cover the McKiulcs pill wit! lie more than ever insufficient 10 disgutje the dose. It wili put the administration In rather an em barrassing predicament to hive to apply the retaliatory principle to the South American countries which may prove obdurate. Tin people of the United States are in no teuipci to tolerate the reimposition uf a tariff on coffee, hides and sugar, even (hough limited in its operation to impoits from a few South American states. The open advent ol Foraker as a senatorial candidate in Ohio shows that the vaunted re publican harmony in that state i3 a sham. With McKinlcy looming up as a possible rival of Blaine and Harrison for the presi dential nomination, and the hero of th; for gery conspiracy openiy reaching out for John Sherman's seat, the republican party in Ohio is likely to suffer much more than the demo cratic from internal jealousies and dissensions. If, in a'year from now, the issues and fea tures of the campaign point to Gov, Hill as our most available leader, then we are for him. If the nature of the situation calls tor the Icadershipof Mr Cleveland or Gov. Campbell or Senator Palmer or some other able and faithful democrat, tli:n he will be our choice. We are not for any one man against the whole democratic field; we are for the success of the democratic fieldjunder the trustworthy leader who is best able to win the fight! In Spain, France, Ireland and some parts of England, a tinker is held in such abhorrence by the common people as to make It almost impossible for him to get a meal or find lodg ings for the night. The reason alleged is that when the blacksmith was ordered to make nails for Christ's crucifixion he refused, but the tinker made them aid Christ condemned him and all of his ra:e to be wanderers, and and nsver have a toof of their own to cover their heads until the world's end. They are experimenting in Sco'Und in the process of mtlki-.ig cows by steam, anl IV Somerville, professor of agriculture in thelhtr ham College olScien:e, siys he has seen up on a farm the f'.rrrcrs' wife anj daughter milking a certain number of the cows carefully by hand, while a little steam engine was milking the others, with a view to tA the results. Since they found out that TeOerson was an advocate of lotteries, democrats in a certain section of the country have a higher opinion of him than the) formerly entertained.-GW's uemocrai. Washington's note books show that he made a regular practice of nuying lottery tickets. Hamilton played cards for money with all the enthusiasm of a Tranby Croft parly. It is a poor plan to try to score a point by his'orical citations without pursuing the subject to its legitimate end.
