The price ranged from .27% to 28 cents, against 18 cents A j>rear •go. rV' IQTThe Tammany (New Yoffc) litfws- paf>ers have waked up and are beginning to quote the President's speeches as re­ ported by more enterprising organs. They do it, however, to find fault. The junior organ in New York says: "As a „ public Kf-rvant Mr. Harrison will never do a ny tiling that will reduce the burdens of the people now imposed for the enrich­ ment Of the beneficiaries of the tariff. His own and his party's political exit-t «nce depends upon the campaign funds contributed by the trusts and monopo­ lists that are sustained and fostered by the McKinlev act and its kind. Mr. Har- $ rieon will talk about free trade, but he <will do all he can to tax and restrict it." In the meantime the great Nation of •65,000,000 goes right along more pros­ perous and vigorous than ever before. f&~ According to accounts, the mem­ bers of the Mafia who murder and rob in the I 'nited States and escape to Italy are -perfectly safe, the Italian government taking the ground that the constitution of Italy does not allow the surrender of Italian, citizens for trial in a foreign country. By this decision, repudiating •^treaty arrangements, the Italian govern­ ment makes it an object for Italian crim­ inals in the United States to remain aliens. The criminals executed by the populace of New Orleans would have been quite safe in Italy, and failing to reach the country of their birth the Italian government demands indemnity and severe penalties upon their execu­ tioners. The more the the Italian inci­ dent is examined, the clearer it appears , that while Italy drives her criminals to America, she never ceases to protect them as Italian citizens. COTTNTT CONVENTION. The Republican County Convention, for the purpose of selecting nine delegates to represent the county in the Judicial Con­ vention, was held at Woodstock on Mon­ day last, and every town in the county was represented with the exception of Burton. The ring, who think they own McHenry county, politically, undertook to run the Convention to suit themselves, bat were sat down upon in the most em­ phatic manner, the Convention sending delegates to Aurora instructed to use all honorable means to secure the nomina­ tion of Hon. Ira R. Curtis, of Marengo, as one of the candidates for Circuit Judge. It was a black eye for the gang, and they Will do well to heed the lesson. Judicial Convention. The Republican convention forthel2th judicial circuit was held at Aurora Tues­ day. Hon. H. S. Hudson, o! Kendall county, was chairman, and T. A. DeWeese, of Aurora, anc^J. Van Slyke, of McHenry, secretaries. The delegations were there in full strength, and the proceedings were quite harmonious. Charles Kellum, of DeKalb county, and H. B. Willis, of Elgin, were nominated by acclamation. Clark W. Upton, of Lake, was nominated by ballot, against Curtis, of McHenry; E. H. Gary, of DuPage; and C. E. Fuller, of Boone. The vote stood: Upton, 39; Curtis, 10; Uary, 6 and Fuller, 6. The judicial committee appointed con­ sists of A. W. Wright, of Boone, E. J. Carnes, of DeKalb, C. F. Irwin, of Kane, H. S. Hudson, of Kendall, R. Whitney, of Lake, R. H. Goodrich, of DuPage, and A. B. Coon, of McHenry. We Hake Citizebasitoo Fast. Protests are being nirode in all parts of the country agonist the two easy and rapid acquirement of citizenship by immi­ grants. The New Orleans affair has brought the subject to the foreground, and made 'lonspieious the evils of loose­ ness in the administration of naturaliz­ ation laws. That outlawed criminals and cut-throats from foreign lands should be able to come to the United States, and at once spring into political power, take part in the making and administration of law, and have voice in shaping the domestic and foreign policy of the nation is a state of affairs that has features both grotesque and alarming. To place the ballot in the hands of such creatures is to confer upon thorn the highest privilege which belongs to the most loyal, intelli­ gent and virtuous titizen. It is an in­ justice to the later, whether native or foreign born. The adopted citizen, in­ deed, who has become Americanized in his allegiance, sympathy, current of thought and language, has the liveliest interest in guarding against corruption and violence the institutions under which he lives and the principles represented by the flag which* floats over his head. Having become a part of the body politic his own welfare can best be Ferved by keeping vigilaut guard over the integrity of the American plan of self government. The lack of uniformity in the natural­ ization laws of the several States has led to much confusion and to the indiscrimi­ nate manufacture of citizens out of unfit' material. This evil has grown to pro­ portions that are alarming, and will te appalling if not soon checked. Away of meeting the difficulty was suggested in the recent Commercial Congress at Kan­ sas City, Mo., by delegate Wickliffe, of Louisiana, who said: I am as some of you know, a State's rights Democrat, but I believe the power to make American citizens ought to be taken from the State courts and given to the Federal government. Perhaps you do not realize the need of all this, but in looking up the nationality of those Jcrim- inals whdin the citizens of New Orleans executed not long since we found that in the naturalization paper of one of these his certificate of good uioral character was certified to by two of his iellow criminals. It is certain that local regulation- has been inadequate, It has permitted hasty naturalization for partisan purposes, and has resulted in loading down the poll lists with names that have no right­ ful place there. The Philadelphia Press, discussing this phase of the subject, says: In some of the newer Western States citizenship is granted after six mouths, residence, and the strange sight is seen at the polis of men voting who cannot read or speak a word of English. The climax in this respect was reached in Montana, in the election of 1889, when recently-arrived immigrants appeared at the polls, carrying printed cards read­ ing: "I cannot speak English. I want to vote the Democratic ticket." And th®y were allowed to vote for state officers, and for members of the Legisla­ ture, whose duty it was to elect two- United States senators. This is making a farce of one of the highest privileges with which a man can be vested. Nothing is more certain than that- this matter must come into prominence^as a problem demanding wise treatment and prompt solution. Theje is no partisan ship in it, and no politics except in that high sense of the term which implies the science of government. All men of all parties agree that too mufeh carelessness --or something worse--has prevailed, and that the United States cannot too soon grapple with an evil that threatens the direst consequences if unchecked. • Wat Standing Up Like a Kan. Dr. Gatling, the gun inventor, was in Washington when Morse's wire stretched a few miles out into the country and back again. The inventor of the tele­ graph had not then reached the discovery of the ground connection. He thought he must have a return wire to make a circuit. Morse had spent his own money his wife's money, and all he could get from relatives. He needed more and he applied to Congress. An appropriation of $30,000 hung in the balance. It was in the hands of a committee of five. Two were favorable; two were opposed. The fifth was Congressman Wallace, of In diana, a relative of General Lew Wallace The Hoosier statesman was absent when the deadlock occurred, but he returned and voted for the appropriation. Morse got the money and made telegraphing successful. But Wallace, by the act, dug his political grave. He went back to his district--the Richmond district, one of strongest Whig constituencies--and stood for re-election. The Democrats put uj Bill Brown. Wallace and Brown stumped the'district together, and wherever they spoke Brown would say. What do you think, fellow-citizens, Mr Wallace did in Congress? He voted $30,000--yes, $80,000 of the people' money--for a thing called the electro magnetic telegraph. What is that Why, it is a wire strung on poles stuck in the ground, and they propose to send news over it. Here is Mr. Wallace. If you don't believe he did that very thing, ask him for yourselves. And Wallace stood up like a man, said he voted for the money, and tried to ex plain why. Then the old Whigs shook their heads and said: "Wallace, ne can vote for you if you are guilty of such piece of folly as that. You ought to be pot in a straight jacket." The strong Whig district gave Bill Brown 1,500 ma­ jority because Wallace voted the money which gave the world telegraphy.-- fef"A so-called Republican paper in an adjoining county held up "20 poands of sugar for a dollar" last week as a trium­ phant argument in favor of free trade, and ended up by asking whether such t change had ever been wrought by the iin position of a high tariff. We do not ex­ pect the editor to be convinced of his error, but Huggest that he re-publish his editorial with the following little item attached, which we take from the New York Press: In 1875 we began to manufacture wire nails. At that time they cost 10 cents a pound, and the duty was 1 cent a pound The duty was insufficient. In 1884 the wicked Tariff Commission put it up to 4 cents per pound. From that day we be­ gan to make wire nails in dead earnest The price stiffened a little, but soon dropped to a lower rate than they had ever been sold for before. From 50,000 kegs of 100 pounds in 1882, the output went up to 3,500,000 in 1890. And a« the product increased the price decreased from 8.32 cents in 1882 to 2.10 cents per pound at the present time. The duty has been reduced to two cents per pound. If the iiowery parrot's theory of "the tariff is a tax" be true the present duty if removed would leave the price of wire nails at exactly 10 cents per keg of 100 pounds. Organs of free trade, how do you like this nail story? Letter from Idaho. BLACK FOOT, Idaho, April 9,1891. EDITOR PLAINDKALKK :-- \gain we me­ ander through the tortuous Snake River country. At Eagle Rock, it flows swiftly among the lava beds, with a channel at times not more than fifty feet wide, and three times as deep. Along its course where you see black sand, there is more or less gold dust. The West had no January, and now has that month's cold and snow in April, though not half, nor one-fourth the fatal Grippe as in the Kast. Why, instead of going to Hong Koug, I turned my face eastward, was that my friend Mandarin Sing Fat, of 'Frisco, in­ formed me that all my relatives in that city were extiuct and their estates con­ fiscated. My second best scheme i«j to spend the summer with my wife's rela­ tions in McHenry. Of course, this new departure is subject to moditt ation. For iustance, should they think proper to offer a good bonus, I might lie induced to remain in Denver or K. C. Mine is not the firfct financial brain that has been turned aside from great purpose by the interposition of a big, large, fat, juicy bonus. We passed Beaver Canon without step­ ping over to the Yellowstone Park, sim­ ply because we were led to believe that there is from three to twelve feet of sleighing still in the Park; and we are, none of us, snow-shoe experts. Besides, yellow is not a favorite color with me. I always had a penchant for painting the stones red. Why this should be called Yellowstone Park, when there are red paint pots, saloons, and the Devil's Half Acre hard by, is to me an unsolved mys­ tery. Another good reason for not hon­ oring the Park with my inspective pres­ ence, is, dynamite bombs and other fire­ arms for self-protection are prohibited on these grounds. Hence, a saucy cinna­ mon can cuff you up to a peak, a grin­ ning cougar spit on your shirt bosom, or sage hen roost upon your bald, defense­ less plug hat with impunity. Old Faith­ ful and his co-squirters, are still putting in their full time spitting hot water at the cold moon. MONTPELIEB, Idaho, April 10. At Blackfoot, we saw many noble red men. The Bannocks and Shoshones are very tail, painted, warlike looking war­ riors. We paid a squawja dime for a peep at her two weeks old pappoose, strapped to an ironing board. The young kuss whooped at sight of us, and looked as if he would like our scalp. Well, exciting incidents occur all along this notorious Oregon Short Line. Just this side of Pocatello, two trains met and wrestled with each other last night. Re­ sults, one dead man, three badly injured, two engines reduced to pulp, and a dozen freight cars obliterated. The night be­ fore a man was killed in a fracas here, by a Missouri doctor, because, forsooth, he dared presume to defend the honor of his 16 years old daughter against the licen­ tious advances of this James Gang Liber­ tine. These little are so common that they hardly cause a ripple upon the so­ cial atmosphere. At Soda Springs, Bingham Co., we stopped over to sing and smile. This, of course, is a summer town of about 500, and is the base of supplies for the Cara boo country, where placer and quartz mining thrive. The Soda Springs water is liquid in its nature, and healthful in its effects. It will translate vinegar pickles into taffy, aluinn to rock candy, sour mash to Tom and Jerry, and completely counteract the acid in the temper of a sour woman. I talk of leaving my wife there a-month to sweeten up. This town has about 1,000 inhabit­ ants, is the end of a railroad division, and is about auf and auf Gentile and Mormon. Thirty or forty miles east of here is the Wyoming State line, where commences Woman's Paradise. At this point, I am told, straight jackets are provided for female passengers, by the U. P. R. W. Co., to prevent them from escaping at the stations; so alluring is the temptation to enjoy their first fran­ chise. Later, I have heard that the straight jackets have been dispensed with, and ballot boxes provided for the ladies' car, on all trains while passing through Wyoming. Well, it now appears, that we yelled for Washburne, and busted a bottle of Best's Milwaukee, prematurely; as later news show that Chicago must endure another term of misrule, but we will whistle for Denver, who has downed the gang in great shape. R. D. SCOTT LOOK OUT, BOYS. Or the Fish Warden Will be After You- About the Law, Fish Warden Buck has received from Gov. Fifer instructions to enforce in this part of the State the section of the law relating to birds. It will be well for boyn and others to look out, as Warden Buck has good eyes and is not afraid to prose cute offenders. It may be remarked here that the bill regarding sparrows has aot yet become a law: No person shall at any time, within this State, kill or attempt to trap, net, snare or destroy, or kill any robin, blue bird, swallow, marten, mosquito hawk, whip-poor-will, cuckoo, woodpecker, cat­ bird, brown thrasher, red bird, hanging bird, buzzard, sparrow, wren, humming­ bird, dove,gold-finch, mocking bird, blue jay, finch, thrush, lark, cherry bird, yel­ low bird, oriole or bobolink, nor rob or destroy the nests of such birds, or either or any of them. And any person so of­ fending, shall, on conviction, be fined the sum of five dollars for each and every nest robbed or destroyed; provided that nothing in this section shall be construed to prevent thej owner or occup«mt of lands from destroying any of the bird* herein named on the same, when deemed necessary by him for the protection of iruiia or property.

If Bill Jones' cow gets into John Brown's po tato patch and only partly does what the bugs will eventually do. Jones will forthwith run to the editor and ask that no mention be made of the fact for feat of injuring the cow's reputation. Joqgs is a subscriber. Ha! Look out for the "old subscriber!" He owns the paper You are allowed to run it through a spirit of toleration on his part. Don' write anything that will conflict with bis opinion; if you do, he'll take his name off the list. He'll get his auction bills printed at the other office, or tell his rem iniscences to the other man, and then your paper with the largest sworn circu lation in the country will be deprived of a lot of superannuated, fossilized, moss backed facts--interesting to old subscrib ers alone. Very well, Jones gains bis point. No mention is made of the incur­ sion of his cow into Brown's lot. In comes the city papers the same evening with a full account of the dire trespass The "special correspondent" draws chiefly from his imagination, and glow ingly depicts a bloodthirsty conflict bt tween Brown and Jones. Both are car­ ried off the field, doctors summoned and everything that medical aid coald accom plish was done to alleviate the cow's suf­ ferings. But Old Sub. is satisfied.
