IW David Bennett Bill has spoken hie pieoe against the income tax and has shown in doing so that he is one Demo- oat at Washington who possesses the courage of his convictions. David may not be able to say "I am a Democrat" with as much unction as formerly but he Si certainly say he is not a cuckoo. .; & r I®* "Those good times promised by Democratic stamp speakers are still coming, but they are as far off as ever apparently," says the Philadelphia Press in apparent forgetfnlnees of the fact that every rising and setting of the sun brings vs one day nearer the good times that >n to follow the coming Republican BAtional victory. as-:; •? i 1-, : 18" The duties on raw sugar will not take effect until January, 1895. In the meantime the trust will buy the raw •agar of the reciprocity countries, manu­ facture it and sell at prices increased by tike new duties.

But the death of an old black woman, Lois Trit- toa, in New Haven, recalls the fact that New England, too, had her slave marts and sold negroes' at auction a century ago. Lois Tritton was born a slave and had been sold on the New Haven green. She was 95 years old and was said to be the last slave in New Haven to be sold op the green. 5 ? i. 1 *' • Wt It would be mighty ii*#e#ttng if the senate committee could find out how far the sugar trust was responsible for President Cleveland's crooked and out- rageous policy toward the Hawaiian islands. While before the Senate com­ mittee H. O. Havemeyer was unwilling to state the amount of the trust's con­ tribution to the campaign funds of the different states, and the committee ex- cased him, after assurance was given that no money was employed in the election of senators. fc We learD from the later Ocean, of Monday, that W. W. Tracy, of Spring. Held, has announced himself a candidate Ipr the office of State Treasurer. In speaking of hiscandidacy the later Ocean Mys: J The entrance of Mr, Tracy in the field /-• of candidate* will add greatly to the life •ad activity of the campaign from this HflM forth. He enters the race lat<\ but fee lcyoungand active and has host* of friend* scattered over the State who will, 90 -doobt, rally around his standard.

Mr. "JVaty, on the other hand, will be a for iHh, the Eight* fleaatofW Dtetrtet. wfll be held at Woodstock, on Monday next, July 2. The call is to nominate three candidates, and the delegates from McHenry and Lake counties are instructed to vote for and use all honorable means to secure that end. McHenry county, through the manipulation of the bosses, at thecounty convention, endorsed Hon. R. J. Beck, of Dunham, while Lake sends her delega­ tion instf-ucted for Hon. Geo. R. Lyon, of Waukegan. At the time of writing we have not heard what action Boone county will take, but it is presumed she will either endorse Hon. Ueo. Reed, or Keeler, of the Northwestern, while there are rumors afloat that that staunch Re­ publican, Major C. B. Loop, may be in the field. There are two questions that will prob­ ably come before the convention on which there may be a difference of opin­ ion. First, as regards the propriety of running three candidates. Boone county, we are informed, is opposed to the third man being pot into the field, claiming that should one be beaten their man would be the victim. While McHenry county, although her delegates are in­ structed for three candidates, the ring and "boss" influence are opposed, know­ ing that if but two are nominated their pet" will have nothing to do but sit down and await results, instead of tak­ ing off his coat and working for the good of the whole ticket until election day. Lake county is uncompromisingly in favor of three candidates, believing that all three can be elected, and at all events will do their beet to that end and are willing to take their chances in the gen­ eral shuffle. The Plaindealer, now as ever, is in favor of three Republican candidates, be­ cause we believe with proper manage­ ment they can all be elected. And even if they should not nothing will be lost by trying. If there are any candidates in the field who are afraid to take their chances with three men let them step aside and give place to some one who is more interested in the success of his party than self. The motto of "Donnelly Bret and the Republican party aftei- wards," is not a popular one with the people. Therefore we say if the Conven­ tion on Monday next refuses to nomi­ nate three men they will be branded as cowards and unfit to represent the Re­ publican party of the Eighth District. The second question which will proba­ bly come before the convention will be where these different candidates shall be located. From remarks which we have beard thrown out this question may cut considerable figure in the convention, and while we have fixed views in the mat­ ter we have neither the time nor space to discuss them it this time. If the dele­ gates who assemble in Woodstock on Monday do their duty fearlessly, with­ out dictation from "bosses," and for the best interests of the Republican party, it will be all that can reasonably be asked. But "boBs" dictation and ring rule will not be tolerated. Better defeat than disgrace. 9* We see by the Chicago papers that Frank L. Shepard is a prominent candi­ date for Member of the Legislature from the Second Senatorial District of Cook county. This district is Republican, electing two Republicans and one minor­ ity Representative, and Mr. Shepard is endorsed by most of the leading Republi­ cans of the district. He is a young man of more than ordinary ability, and is numbered among the first of the rising young attorneys of Chicago. Being a McHenry county boy we naturally feel proud of his position, and should he re­ ceive the nomination there will be no brighter or more useful member in the Legislature the coming winter Frank L. Shepard, of Chicago. fca*"From a letter dated at Russell, Neb., June 9,1894, we glean the follow­ ing: "We have had no rain since last April; small grain is all gone, there will be no hay, and the pastures are about all dried up. Our corn is in bad shape, the early planting most all gone, and the late planting is laying in the ground just as it was planted: don't know what we will do if it don't rain soon. It is dry all around us, east and west." The people of Illinois should not complain when they read about some of the western states. Old Illinois was never known to fail on all kinds of crops. Let us be thankful that we are as well off as we are. >r». The siMtt.fr? l)|i^Eiiatic papers all over the country are reproduoiag ing a "clincher," a number of from a speech made in the Small Mills, of Texas. Here are some para­ graphs of this alleged argument for free trade: In one ton of steel rails the labor eoet is f 4; the tariff is f 13.44. In$i 00 worth of-cutlery the labor cost is $44.24; the tariff isjs80.ll. In f 100 wot th of woolen or worsted cloths the labor cost is $20.85; the tariff is 1100.02. In $100 worth of cotton good* the la­ bor cost is $24.24; the tariff $57.08. There are quite a number of similar statements, but the above will show the fallacious Arguments as well as a hun­ dred instances. Take the first. Three dollars may cover the cost of labor which takes the blooms out of the furnace and runs them through the rolls; certainly not more than that. But that is but a small part of the labor required to make steel rails. The iron ore must be mined, transported, smelted, and so on, the coal for fuel must be dug, and this increases the labor cost very greatly. In point of fact it costs, labor and all, from $18 to $20 to make a ton of steel rails. The isame is true of any and all items in this so-called "clincher." In woolen and cotton goods Mr. Mills has not taken into account the labor of raising the cotton and wool, of carding, spin­ ning, dying, etc. He starts with the weaving. Mills it a mere theorist, who knows nothing whatever about the practical side of manufacturing. His ideas were learned from free trade works by English authors, and he has never made an argument on the tariff that could not be easily overthrown by any one familiar with the actual industries. The tariff bill now before the Senate, and for which Mills has publicly declared he will vote, is open to the very same ob­ jections he adduces against tte present law. If the labor required to make a ton of steel rails were only $3, how is he to justify himself in voting for a bill which imposes a duty of $7.50 per ton? And a similar state of things is true of nearly all the articles he enumerated in bis clincher." It don't "clinch." however. -Toledo Blade. --i-- - ifinii Worth Knowing. The first railroad in this country was made in 1826 and was four miles in length, running from the granite quarries in Ouincy, Mass., to tidewater. The next was a coal road at Maunch Chunk, Pa., built in 1827. Both these toads were laid on stone cross ties, with wooden stringers, and on top of stringers strap- iron three inches wide, a quarter ol an inch thick, and nailed to the wooden stringers. The first railway charter in this country was issued in the State of New York for a road running from Albany to Schenec­ tady, now a part of the New York Cen­ tral system. It was proposed to hire a civil engineer at $3.00 per day to oversee the construction, and the possible em­ ployment of a chain man and assistant at acost of $1.50 per day was fainted at. In 1850 there was not a hundred miles of railway in the State of Illinois, and the difference between the road beds and equipment of the. rude experimental period of railway construction and oper­ ation, and the present splendid systems so generally used, only illustrates the evolution in this direction. Eight, ten, and possibly twelve miles per hour, were startling records of speed. The English engineer who hinted at the possibility of twenty miles per hour was regarded as crazy. Now a speed of 100 miles per hour has been attained, and . the end is uot yet. 1 " ' l l |n% KIM' .•rirgiwA.-.! C?T i ELGIN, •^"Senator Hill demands that the "Democratic party redeem its pledgee." It is pretty late to "lock the stable door after the horse has beep stolen." It has wrecked the Nation 's ^om merce and brought poverty and distress to millions of homes--and any amount of jumping on to the loose gang planks of the Chi­ cago platform won't abolish "receivers," start the wheels of machinery, start up the furnace fires, or bring plenty to im­ poverished homes. The order has al­ ready gone out that "the flag-pulling," "free-soup" party has got to go. Demand of Journalism, The mossback and halcyon days of editing a paper are dead and interred in the same moss-covered grave with the pig-headed old fogy of ancient times. To serve the alert and wide-awake public a man has to be constructed on a high plane and catchy basis. It takes a sort of luminous and electrical journalist to write in this advanced age of civilization. He has to be able to write bright things and keep it up or he is soon relegated to the rear as a typical has been. The peo­ ple of the world are enveloped in an in­ tellectual storm and their brain throbs incessantly, for brainy flash shots, and the newspaper man who isn't erected on this hypothetical hypothesis is an obliv­ ious nobody. Lubricity of thought and the ambidextrous handling of the pencil m what counts in running a newspaper, The above clipping from a trade journal just fits the condition of the "throb," the "lubricity of thought," and everybody will wonder why it was not "thank up" Jpftg ago.--MareDgo Re- 19" Saturday last was Derby day at Washington Park, Chicago. The glory was somewhat marred by the heavy rain shower which came about 2 o'clock and which threatened to destroy the day's sport. tVhile the clouds had been lower­ ing for some time rain was not expectgi. When big drops began to fall thenfwas a great rush for shelter. The crowd packed itself into the betting rinsr, the refresh­ ment room the grandstand and any other place that would afford a refuge from the rain. There were more people than there was room, however, and many a new suit was soaked. The num­ ber of people who witnessed the Ameri­ can Derby of 1894 exceeds the nuurt>6r who witnessed any previous race.<^The track was muddy and in poor condition and the Derby was won by two open lengths by Rey El Santa Anita, Lucky Baldwin's horse, a^O to 1 shot, picked for a winner by no one. Senator Grady was second. Prohibition County Convention* The Prohibition voters of McHenry County are requested to meet in Maes Convention on Friday the 29th day of June 1894, at ten o'clock A.
