V Some time ago C. J. Munro one
of the third party oracles of Jones
county pitched into the Anson
Western like a bantam rooster
would fly at a Tom cat. He pub-
lished his attack1 in the Sentinel
and in all probability thought it
would be one of the best cam-
paign documents of the day. The
editor of the Western in reply to
his document gives him a drub-
bing this week that would cause
any other inan than "judge" Munro
to take his bed for a month.

the sugar crop of Louisana for
last year at C033553 087 pounds
on which the McKinley bill gives
a bounty of $11634 461. It is no
wonder that Louisiana should join
issue with New England on the
tariff question. And yet the other
portions of country wonder why
wheat and corn cotton and pota-
toes are not as much entitled to a
bounty as sugar.
The Pollard-Brecken ridge case
is nearing an end in the court.
The evidence is all in and the law-

Train robbers attempted to

Anew military company was

The latest tariff bluff is an an-
nouncement from an alleged Penn-
sylvania syndicate of an intention
to erectHhe largest tin-plate mill
in the country. It is useless how-
ever as it is already as nearly
settled as anything not absolute-
ly consummated can be that tha
tariff on tin will be materially
changed.

Brides nowadays are sweet
things and "sweets to the sweet"
is all right so far as it goes but
the girl ought to shut off her
yearning for candy after the hon-
eymoon at least. No man wants
a wife who makes a mere candy-
hopper of herself. She is bound
to sour on the situation some
time particularly if the flow of
taffy happens to run short. The
wife with a sugar tooth is a per-
petual menace in a household. So
is the wife with a chewing-gum
jaw.
The New York Sun says that
men without beards will soon be-
come fashionable the hair being
removed by electricity at a cost
of $3 per hair. It may be that
some men will go through this ex-
pensive operation for fashion's
sake ; but is it not reasonable to
suppose thai nature gave a man a
beard as a protection to the face
especially to the nostrils while
breathing? This protection is
uniform and the filtering of cold I
air which is thus secured saves the
lungs from injury from sudden and
extreme changes of the weather.
Mrs. Lease says that Gov. Lew-
elling of Kansas ought to be put
in prison for life for calling out
the state militia tast year during
the legislature. She says that
Gov. Waite of Colorado too
made a mistake in calling out the
militia last week. These are two
populist governors. If populist
rule bring such dire trouble as it
has in these two instances the
less we have to do with it- the
better. Stephenville Empire.
According to reliable reports a
number of Gen. CoxJs men have
been interviewed "as to what they
intend to do" in case provisions
are not furnished en route .and
each and every one of them said
they would make a. raid upon the
farm houses." Whea they begin
to plunder the farmers something
is going to drop wit a dull thud.
Farmers are not lacjting in chari-
ty as a rule but they believe in a
kind of a faithful work that many
of the Coxey soldier are unwill
ing to nerform and ihev are not
the men to stand quietly by and
see the results of their industry

Frye's men Driven Out.
St. Louis April 6. The chief
of police of East St. Louis this
morning ordered; Gen. Frye to
move his army outside the citjr
limits. Accordingly Frye and
his followers after a hasty break-
fast moved to a point on the
Connellsville turnpike just out-
side the city limits. The police
of East St. Louis were reinforced
and orders have been issued to
prevent the return of any of the
men to the city.
The men are pratically without
food and the citizens are unwill-
ing to help them as the offer of
the East St. Louis water board
for 200 men for one year at $1.50
a day has been refused. The
railroads refuse to transport the
men and it is feared that they
will give themselves up as va-
grants and compel the city to
care for them.

We don't believe it best as a
general thing for a newspaper to
give its readers nothing but po-
litical news but this year the
Monitor will Have to tell its read-
ers something 'like the little boy
told the Lord while saying his
prayers. The little fellow had
pulled off his shoes preparatory
to retiring when he kneeled down
and commenced his usual prayer.
The bottoms of his feet sat toes
downward in such a manner that
his little sister could not resist
the temptation to tickle themjwith
j a straw whereupon the boy said:
"Good Lord excuse me just a
minute until I knock the stuffin'
outen sister." Dear readers?
please excuse us this summer for
giving so much politics until we
knock the stuffin' outen this third
party. Belden Monitor.
Peffer the third party senator
from Kansas made a speech in
the senate Tuesday in opposition
to the tariff bill.
A severe snowstorm visited the
northeastern states this week ex-
tending as far southward as Ken-
tucky. Great .distress is prevalent
among the laboring classes in
Spain. Many hundreds of unem-
ployed menare walking the streets
of Madrid Cadiz and other cities
in the vain search for work. One
day recently 4000 men went in a
body to the government offices in
Madrid asking for relief in the
shape of work for themselves and
families. The government was
able to do but little for them.
Brigandage has greatly increased
and its spread is attributed to the
distress among the rural popula-
tion. Mr. Harrison and Gov. McKin-
ley probably smiled quite broadly
when ax-Czar Beed was humbled
by Speaker Crisp.

The whole democratic party is in-

plain question.
President Cleveland has the
same right to veto a bill when it
does not meet with his approval
that every democrat in congress
has to vote for or against a bill
and his financial opinions were as
well known when he was last nom-
inated and elected as they are
to-day. These are facts that
sliould not be overlooked by those
who pretend to see nothing but a
disruption in the democratic party
ahead. Brethren the democratic
party will be living and winning
