The democrat figure out a majority for themfeelves in the next congress equal to or a little more than tla ir majority in this bout. They claim with confidence that they will gain one member in Missouri, two in Kentucky, two in Virginia, one in North Carolina, two irhars three in Illinois, one in Indian, and one in California. They expect to ho-e one member in Tennessee, one in Minnesota, one in Ohio, two in Massachusetts, and possibly two in Connecticut This would give them a gain of three In New Yoik they exjtect to hold their present strength or to make a gain of one. The Indiana democrats are rery much encouraged at reports received from that state. A hitter was shown at the cnpitol to-day from an ex-union sol dier of Indiana, in which the writer said that though bis forefathers were wLigt and he had always been a republican, he had determined to support the democratic ticket the tariff issue, lie denounced tho Chicago platform bitterly.

Tho recipient of the letter said that every mail brings him similar communications from Indiana. Chicago Xrici. ing is how a republican paper, the Chicago A'r, handles the trusts fostered by the republican par ty. Bead it and then ask yourself if you are going to vote the republican ticket DEALING WITH. TRC8TS.

There is a great difficulty in dealing with trusts which is puzzling our legislators. Notwithstanding Mr. Blaine's declaration in Portland the other day that trusts were largely pii vale 'affairs and nolxxly'a business, tho pcoplo who are robbed by them begin to think that it Is somebody's business to look after them. There is a difficulty in knowing what is best to do with them, nnd whllo everyone knows what trusts are, it fa not easy to define them legally. Senator Rea gan has introduced a bill into the sen ate to settle both of these iH'rplexities.

The bill defines a trust as "a combination of capital or skill by two or more persons in order to create or carry out restrictions In trade to limit or reduce the production or to increase the prices of merchandise or commodities, to prevent comiietition in the manu facture, making, salo or purchase of merchandise or commodities, or to create a monopoly," The definition is broad enough to cover any one of the thirty or more trusts that have raised the prices on many of the articles entering Into universal consumption among the people. The bill makes any person becoming a incmlier of a trust as above defined, or becoming engaged in the business of any such trust in anv trado or business carried on Itctwecn the states and territories or between the United Stiles and any foreign country, guilty or a high misdemeanor, punishable by a fine of not less than 11,000 and not more than 10,000 and by imprisonment for not less than one or more than five years. The measure has been referred to the finance committee, and it is probable that it will bang there until the close of this session of congress. The pres ident of the sugar trust in bis exam ination lately threw out a hint that might be made useful in squelching these robbers. He said that without the duty on sugar the trust could not exist If tho president or secretary of the treasury were empowered to suspend tariff regulations in regard to articles which were being manipulated by syndicates, it might have a salutary and immediate effect in checking the rascalities these trusts are guilty of.

England has laws against monopolies that are offective, and ther might lie adopted here. We cannot long continue in our present prosperous condition with the leading commodities of the country in the bands of a set of robbers who use the necessities of the people for their own gain.

tii exorbitant (targe tot tviae is a heavy bcrke oa tbe turner. I toe tk tLU as ooe of the rainy tteeessa-ry art k-s a I by farsers on wLkl lie bve a strong fTip, the result of roLib. itrjcy tariff system. A iysta that is building up aa arist'jrracy ia tlU country, and at the same time creating tt-rfs. A systria ia war times, and used by its teDeficiaiiet as as instrument of oppression and corruption ia time of peace.

A system lint has b'giildted onr ocean er-rj ing trade into the bands of foreign-en, and allowed them to fix the prioe of freights on the grain we ship to foreign markets, while at the same time it is pretended tLat lid sytlem bfUt-GU us by shutting out foreign coinpetjtioa. A ytero from which we may pt et no relief so long as a majority of the United States senate continues to le composed of millionaires or the agents of millionaires, elected by biitcd legislatures, and who sole obj-ct is to legislate for their own interests or the interests of the corporations they represeut, and block all U'gihlatkm which might ben efit the people. The wealth of this country is large ly produced by the farming communi ty. Manufacturers depend on the farmers to a great extent for a market for their good. The farm laws cn able manufacturers to maintain prices to suit themselves by shutting out foreign comjietition, while competition at home is destroyed by combinations of ooqioraiions called trusts.

Our ports are closed against the markets of the world. We are forced to buy in a market where the laws shut out all competition, while we are obliged to sell our grain In competition with India and Busgio. The farmer is a producer of hides. lie finds that hides are on the free liht, but there a prohibitory tariff on the boots and shoes and other kinds of manufactured leather which he uses. There is no duty on cotton seed oil.

The beel and pork monopoly mix 40 per cent cotton-seed oil with Inrd, thus one half the demand for lard is shut out by mixing an adulterant which comes in duty free. The farmer pays fancy prices for lumlier because there is a tariff duty shutting out Canadian lumber. The farmers of tho west are robbed of millions of dollars each year on the item of lumlier alone. With a high price for poor lumlier and high rail road freights added, the farmers of Minnesota, Iowa, Dakota and Kansas find themselves unable to build even comfortable dwelling houses, Jet none shelter for stock. Still they ill vote to give a few lumlier barons a monop oly on lumlier, while the burden falls on themselves, I mention these articles samples of hundreds of others.

It is lime the farmers begin to open their eyes and do a liMe reasoning for themselves. The tariff system is a plain, palpable fraud on the people. The republican parly advocates mak ing this system permanent The old republican parly died long ago, when Lincoln, Sumner, Chase, nnd others of ita great lenders died, nnd a greedy and unpatriotic combination of corporations and trust protectors, with the Imlllcd arch-enemy of the people for a mouthpiece, have come to the front and under the name of the republican party hope to control the affairs of this nation. JJi)jer tho guise of patriotism, referring continually to the acts and deeds of the patriotic leaders of the old party of twenty years ago, and using the name of that party as a shield, this unprincipled is in the field asking the people to vole for their tools, while the farmer continues to lie the legitimato prey of the Goulds and Vnnderbilts, of the Ar mours and Swifts, of the tariffcreated barons and tho tax gatherer alike.

Clu'cago Herald. A Dodge qity Enterprise. The following is another Dodge City enterprise. While other towns are howling about what they are going to do (but never do it), Dodge City goes right ahead about her business and builds railroads, court houses, colleges, and a hundred other valuable improvements that will make that progressive city one of the leading cities in western Kansas. We clip tho following for our readers to peruse, which shows that there is pluck and enterprise in Dodge City merchants Dodor Citt, Aug.

It looks as if Blaine was in the fend.

is not feeling well since Blaine's return with his thirty-two trunks of English manufactured goods. Blaine did not think much of the American laborer when ho was purchasing those goods in England. CHANUKS OF FRONf. Ciilcaro Tm. When Benjamin Harrison yoj a Bcnator of the United States, he scouted as absurd, the hint that taxes would ever be taken from whisky and tobacco.

When James G. Blaiue was speaker of the house of representatives, be was in favor of free salt, free coal and free lumber. When Morrill of Vermont, reported the high tariff act of 1861, he did it apologetically, promising that with the return of peace the reasonable tariff of '57, the work of the republi can party in congress, or a reduced tariff wqjild be restored. The tariff of '57, made by do republican partr, was a low tariff Its average was half the average which would be made by the Mills bill Time was when both Senators Hale and rose In their places to ylead for free lumber, free coal, free jjalt and free raw materials. Successive republican secretaries of the treasury have recommended a revision and reduction of the The republican platform of 1884 pledged the party to correct the inequalities of the the tariff and reduce the treas ury surplus.

And whn a bill making additions to the free list and a reduction on the schedules averaging 5 or per cent, the republican press and the republi can leaders cry out in protest against youree which they themselves, pr lMne Tomatoes, best quality, per can, Can Corn, two cans, Granulated Sugar, eleven pounds All Other Goods in Like Proportion.

BLAINE'S FLOOD OF CHEAP FABRIC. It is announced by the New York Trilune that Mr. Blaine returned from his European Journey with thir ty-two trunks and twenty parcels aJ bags. This is a large amount of baggage, truly. It chow that while Mr.

Blaine is anxious to tax the American who cannot get away, he did Dot neglect lis opiortupity fur purchasing free of duty a year's supply of wearing ap parel which is the product of the pun per lalKir of Eurojic If Mr. Blaine were as honestly eon eeroed for the working men as he pre lends he is, he would not have returned bringing with him "thirty-two trunks and twenty parcels and bags" Oiled with foreign goods. Twenty parcels and bags are pecu liarly English, you know. Mr. Blaine made his speech stand ing on these thirty-two trunks and twenty parcels and bags, aaying "The wages of the American lalnirer can not le reduced except with the consent and votes of the American laborers." Surrounded by the spoils pf his European Journey, contained in thirty- two trunks and twpply parcel and bags, Mr.

Blaine asked the American workiiigmen: 'Are you going to do the bidding of an American congress and an American president, who are governed by that clement which sought to destroy this nation Bcmcmhcring all the glories of Paris and the cheap goods of England, congratulating himself on the bargains contained in the thirty-tiro trunks and twenty parcels and bags, Mr. Bl.iino said in rq ly to the speeches of w.fJeonjQ, "I whh pvcry voter In the United States could see' and hear what I have seen and heard during tho past year." What he saw was clothing at about half the price to pay in America, and what be heard was "no taxes to pay at tho custom house for you." Hence his thirty-two trunks and twenty parcels and bags. "It is the opportunity," ho said, "of England the occasion upon which tho chcaper liilx)r and cheaper fabrics of tho Old World expect to invade the New, and lower the wages of the American workingman to the Euro pean standard." And then he went back to make another inspection of his thirty-two trunks and twenty parcels and bags. JJr. blaine always baa an eye to the main chance, and is never a deadhead in any euterprisc GROUND DOWN BY THE TARIFF.

Practical Question In Economies from a Farmer's Standpoint, Editor of the Herald Will you please inform me through your columns hat the tariff duty is on binding twine for harvesters. The price of binding twine is 14J and 15J cents per pound in Minnesota and J3J to 15 cents in Milwaukee every year, If there is not a monopoly on twine it appears to me that the price ought to be lowered some time, but it is the same every season, thus showing that there is no competition. The farmer sells hu grain at Liverpool prices, but must pay tribute to the twine monopoly before the grain is harvested. The tariff does not benefit him in selling his grain, therefore he certainly ought not to be obliged to pay taxiff crcated prices for binding twine, a juost noc-essary article used by hira in preparing the grain for market The jaw ought not to hamper him as soon as he commences the labor of harvesting his crops, after he has taken all the chances in producing that crop The twine manufacturers are safe, because when fanner does not raise a crop on account of a poor season the twine that is ready for market can be kept over until another season.
