PROTECTION
Tb Plaindeaier in last week s issuo
oienly advocates Blaine's policy of a
high protective taviii.
On this question of high tax, waste
mid extravagance there is no longer any
-1Milit Tlio "Pr.c?!tmtiul rnr.litlfttPH
declare for a high protective tarifl.
Their party organs advocate it, not foi
- the purpose of raising revenue but for
the purpose of favoring private enter
prises and creating privileged classes at
. . . - - - . -
the expense of the whole people. Up
iutal in fliia rlv-1i-Jrtfi is tli Demo
cratic party with a long line of 'tradi
tions ; with tbo ruemoiuUe eouijntign
of 1844, when the farmers of America
under the leadership f Jamas K.
Polk defeated the pernicious doctrine
of class protection and laid the gifted
and talented Henry Clay on the shelf
as a Pres;dential candidate.
The Democratic platform declares in
emphatic terms that no more' money
shall be taken from the pockets of the
Dconle and withdrawn from circulation
than is necessary for the support jf the
Government economically ad ruin is
i
tered. j
Farmers, von. who feel the j hard
times and want of monev in this year
of good crops be not deceived as to the
cause of our financial troubles. Po
litical economy teaches and experience
demonstiates the danger of the protec
tive theory.
Blaine has declared this to be the
issue, ind like Clay let Ins ambition
perish by the dangerousveapon against
equal rights which he has taken in his
own Lands.
Blaine a Monopolist. r
When the Thurman Bill was pend
ing before tho United States Senate to
compel the Union and Central Rail
roads to pay the government the
interest due on their bonds, up
lumped James G. Blaine from behind
the breast-works of the lobby of Gould,
Huntington, Dillon, &c. armed with an
amendment in order to kill the bill.
Gould, Dorsey and Stanley Mathews
used all their power to - forco it
through the Senato. j
Of the amendment Senator Thur
man sayr : "It was plain to me that
Blaine desired to kill the bill. It is
not for roe to say what his motive was,
or if any improper influences control
led him. But it is for the; people to
judge." !
Dorsev has wealth. j
Stanley Ma'thews holds a seat on the
Supreme Court bench by the grace and
greenbacks of Gould and Huntington
Blaine is the Republican Presiden
tial candichte, and Jay Gould gives
liim $100,0CO to aid him in purchasing
Ohio.
But the - corruptions which have
stained the past sink into insignifi
cance when com'pared with the dangers
K hich threaten the tu tare.
"I do fear," says Sir. Thurman
"that if the Republican part? retains
power the Pacific railroad companies
will evade payment ef their indebted
ness to the government, and, under
' legislative protection, build up the
worst railroad monopoly everr known
in this country."
The Blaine cry of 'Tariff I" as the
New York Herald savp, seeks only to
avoid the real issue of the canvass,
wkich is whether a party which has
shamefully and wilfully overtaxed the
people in order te furnish the lobby
with plunder, and which has failed to
punish star route, navy and other
jobbers, ougnt to be. continued In power
When the voters see a man with Mr.
Blaine'a antecedents, a man" who pub
licly received a testimonial from the
"king of the lobby" while he wa,s
Speaker, now supported by every star
route, navy and other jobber in the
country, they have this real question
plainly presented to them. Whoever
wants honest and economical govern
ment, no surplus taxes and no plunder
ing lobby, must vote against the
Blaino ticket and for Governor Cleve
land, whose admin'stration of the
State Las proved that he is the cour
ageous enemy of public plunders of all
kinds.
A Republican journal has a great
deal to say about "true blue Republi
cans." Tho time to see true blue Re
publicans will be after tbo election.
TILDEH'S LETfEK.
New
Yoke, October 7. The follow-
ing is Mr. Tildcn's reply to the resolu
tions of support and confidence adopted
by the iNatiocal Democratic Conven
tion and presented to him by a com
mittee from that body :
Gratstoxe, October 6, 1884.
The Special committee of the. Demo
cratic National Convention : I thank
you for the kind terms in which you
have communicated resolutions con
cerning me, adopted ! by the Demociatb
National Convention. I share your
convictions, that reform in. the tfdmiriis"
tratiorj of the Federal Government,
whichjis our great national want, and
is indeed essential to the restoration
and preservation of the Government
itself, can only be achieved through the
agency of the Democratic party, and
bv installing its representatives in the
chief magistracy of the United States,
The noble historical traditions of the
Democratic party ; th ; principles in
whichlit was educated and to which it
has ever been, in the main, faithful j
its freedom from the corrupt influences
which grow up in the prolongued pos
session of power, and the nature of the
elements which constitute it, all con
tribute to qualify it for that mission
The opposite characteristics and con
dition which attach to the Republican
party; make it hopeless to expect that
that party will be able in give a better
Government than
THE DEBASING SYSTEM OF ABUSES,
Which, during its ascendency, has in
fected political life in this country.
The Democratic party had its origin in
the efforts of the more advanced patri
ots of the Revolution to resist the per
version cf our Government from the
ideal contemplated by the people
Among its conspicuous founders are
Benjnnian Franklin and Taomas Jef
ferson ; Samuel Adams and John Han
cock; of Massachusetts; George Clin
ton aod Robert R. Livingston f New
York, and, Gecrge W the and
James Madison of Virginia; and from
the ejection of Mr. Jefferson as Presi
dent in 1800, for sixty years the Demo
cratic party mainly directed our nation
al policy. It extended the boundaries
of our republic and laid the foundation
of alt our national greatness, while it
preserved tho limitations imposed by
tho j constitution and maintained
simjile and pure system of domestic ad
ministration. On the other hand; the
i
Republican party has always been
dominated by principles which favor
legislation for tne beneut of particular
classes, at the expense of the body of
the; people. It has become deeply
tainted with the abuses which natural
ly grow d tiring a long possession of un
checked power, especially in a period of
civil war. The patriotic and virtuous
elements in it are now unable to eman
cipate it from
THE SWAY OF SELFISH INTKREST3,
Which subordinate public duty to per
sonal greed. The most hopeful of the
best ciiizens it contains despair of its
amendment except through its tempo
rary expulsion from power. It has
been boastingly asserted by a modern
Massachusetts statesman, stru"r:rlin: to
reconcile himself and his followers to
their Presidential candidate, that the
Republican party contains a dispro
portionate share of the wealth, the cul
ture and the intelligence of the country.
The unprincipled Grafton, when taunt
ed by James II with his personal want
of i conscience, answered : "That is
true ; but 1 belong to a party that has
a great deal ot conscience." Such
reasoners forget that the same claim
has been made in" all ages and coun
tries bv the defenders of old wrongs
agains new reforms. It was alleged y
the Tories of the American Revolution,
against the patriots of that day ; it
way repeated against Jefferson and af
terward against Jackson, and it is so
alleged by the conservatives against
those who in England are now endeav
oring to enlarge the popular suffrage.
All history shows that reforms in Gov-
errimens must not be expected from
those who sit serenly on
j THE SOCIAL MOCXTAIN TOP,
f
Enjoying the benefits of the existing
order of things. Even the Divine an
tler of our religion, found his follow
ers not among the self-complacent
Pharisees, but among the lowly-mind-
fishermen. The Repuolican "party is
largely made up of those who live by
their wits and who aspire, in politics,
to advantages of the rest of mankind'
similar to those which their daily
lives are devoted to securing in privace
business. The Democratic party con
sists largely of thos who live by the
work of their hands and whose politi
cal action is governed by their senti
ments or imagination. It results then
that the Democratic, more readily than
the Republican party, can be moujded
toj the support of reform measures,
which involve a sacrifice of sefish inter-
i mi 1- ' '
est. lne lnuispensaoiB necessity 01
ou'r times is a change of administration
in! the great executive offices of the
country. This, in my judgement, can
only be accomplished by the election
of tl e Democratic candidates for .Presi
dent and Vice-President.

' DBM0UEATI0 PLATFORM.
Th Dmnnrat party ot tho Union, through its
representatives in National Conventijtr assembled,
recognizes tliatasthe nation grow jolder new isauei are
born of time and progress, and old Msue pensh, but
the fundamental principles of Democracy, approved
by the united voice of the people, remain, and w ill
ever remain, us the bent and only security for the
con inuance offiee government. The preservation of
personal rights, trie equality ot all citizens before the
law, the resrvea rijriits oi tne states, ana tne supre
niacy of the Federal Government within the limits of
the Constitution, will ever furni the true ba-ris of our
liberties, andean never be surrendered without ile
stroin that balance of rights and powers which en
ables a continent to De developed in peace a:i social
order to be maintained by means of lo&x sel:-govsrn-
ment.
But it is indispensable, for the practical applica
tion ana euiorcenient ot tneso luniaiuental pnn
ciples, that thu Government should not always be
controlled by one political party. A frequent change
of auniinistration is as necessary as tne constant re
currence to the ponulir will; otherwise, ibuses crow.
and the Government, instead of being carried on for
the general well.ira, becomes an instrumentality forim
posing heavy burdens on the many, who re governed
for the benetit of the few who govern. Public ser
vants thus become arbitrary rulers.

control its ma-
chinery. The frauds and jobbery which liave been
brought to liht in every department of the Govern
ment arc suthjient to have called for reform within
the Uepubliean pArty; yet those in authority, made
re'-'kleas by the long possession of power, have suc
cumbed to its con uptinar influence, and have placed
in nomination a ticket against which the independent
portion of the party are m open revolt. Tnerefore a
clv-inge is demanded. Such a chw;e was alike neces
sity 111 187(i, but the will of the people w then de
feated by a fraud, whii-h can never be forgotten nor
condoned. gam m ISjO tho change demanded by
the people was defeated by the lavish use of money,
contributed by unscrupulous contractors and shame
less Jobbers, who had harjiuined for unlawful profits,
or for Im-h olrice.
The Kermblican party, during its leapal, its
stolen, and its bought tenures of power, ha
steadily decayed in moral, character snd political
capacity, its platform promises are now a list of its
past failures. It demands the restoration of our
navy; it has squandered hundreds of millions to cre
ate a navy that does not exist It calls upon Oonirress
to remove the burdeusunder which Vmeriean shipping
has been depressed; it imposed and has continued
those bnrdens.
It professes tho policy of reserving the publio lands
for small holding by actual settlers. It has given
away tho peoples' heritage ti'l now a few railroads,
and lion-resident aliens, individual and corporate, pos
sess a larger arei than tint of all our farms between
the seas. It professei a preference for free institu
ttons; it organize 1 and triad to legalize a control of
State elections by feaerAl troops. It professes a de
sire to elevate lahor; it has sunjected American work
ingmen to tho competition of convict and imported
contract labor. It professes gratitude to all who
were disabled or died in the war, leaving widows and
orphans; it left to a Democrat ic House of Kepresen
Utives the flrst effort to equalize both bounties a-d
pension!". It proffers a pledge to correct the irregu
larities of our tariff; it created and has continued
thsin. Its own tariff commission e-nfessed the need
of more than 20 'per cent, reduction; its Congress gave
a reduction of less than 4' per cent. It professes the
protection of American manufacturers ; it has sub
jected them to- an increasing flood of manufactured
good3, and a hopeless coinpet tion with manufactur
ing nations, not one of which taxes raw material. It
professes to protect all American industries; it has
impoverished many to subsidizs a few. It professes
the protection of American labor; it has depleted the
returns of American agriculture, an industry followed
by half our people. It professes the equality of all
men before the law. Attempting to fix the s Jitus of
colored citizens, the acts of its Congress were overset
by the decisions of its courts. It "accapts anew the
duty of leading in the work of progress and reform;"
its caught criminals are permitted to escape through
contrived delaj s or actual connivance in the prose
cution. Honeycombed with corruption, outbreaking
exposures no longer tnocK its moral sense, its tion
est members, its indepedent journals, no longer main
tain a successful contest for authority in its counsels
or a veto upon bad nominatons. That change is ncc
essarily proved by an existing surplus of more than
5100,000,000, which has yearly been collected from a
buffeting people. Unnecessary taxation is unjust
taxation.
We denonncc the Republican party for havingfailed
to relieve the people from crushing war taxes which
have paralyzed bu9ineys. crippled industry and de
prived Ubor of employment and of just reward. The
liemocracy pledges itself to purify the admin
istration from corruption, to restore econ
omy, to revive respect lor law ana to re
duce taxation to the lowest limit consistent with a due
-regard to the preservation of the faith of the nation,
to its. creditors and pensioners; Knowing lull well,
however, that legislation affecting the occupations
of the people should be cautious and conser
vative in method, not in advance of public
opinion, but responsive vo ita demands, the demo
cratic party is pledged to revise the tariff in a spirit of
fairness to all interests; but m mating a reduction in
taxes, it is not proposed to injure any domestic indus
tries but rather to promote their healthy growth. From
the foundation of this Government the taxes collected
at the Custom-house have been the chief source of
Federal revenue. Such they must continue to b
Moreover, many industries have come to rely upon
legislation for a successfnl continuance, so that any
change of law must be at every stop regardful of labor
and capital thus involved. The process or reform
must be subject in its execution to this plain dictate
of justice All taxation shall be limited to the re
quirements of an economical Government. The
necessary reduction in taxation can and must be af
fected without depriving American labor of the abil
ty to compete successfully with foreign labor, and
without imposing lower rates or duty tnan will be
ample to cover any increased cstof production which
may exift in consequence of the higher rate of wages

all the expenses oi tne t eaerai uovernment econom
ically administered, including pensions, interest and
principal of tha public debt, can be got under our
present system of taxation irom uustom-nouse taxes
on fewer initorted articles, bearing the heaviest on
articles of luxury and bearing lightest on articles of
necessity. Ve therotore denounce the abuses of the
existing tariff and subject to preceedinglimitation, we
demand that Federal taxation shall be exclusively for
public purposes, and sh;-ll not exceed the needs of the
government economically administered. The system of
direct taxation known as tne "internal revenue, is
a wartax.and so long as "the law-continues the money
received therefrom should be sacredly devoted to the
relief of tho people from regaining burdens of the
war, and be made a fund to defray the exjiense of the
card and comfort of worthy soldiers, disabled in the
line of duty in the wars of the Republic, and for the
payment of such pensions as ConcTess may from time
to time grant to such soldiers a like f uni.f or the
sailors having been already provided and any sur
plus should be paid into the treasury.
We favor an American continental policy, based
upon more intimate commercial and political relations
with the fifteen sister Republics of Narth, Central and
South America, but entangling alliances with none.
We believe in honest money the gild and silver
coinage of the constititu tion and a circulating medium
convertible into such money without loss.
Asserting the equality of all men betore tne law
we hold that it is the duty of the Government, in
dealings with the people, to mete out equal and exact
justice to all citizens, of whatever nativity, race, col
or or persuasion, religious or inimical.
We believe in a free ballot and a lair count, and
we recall to the memory of the people the noble
struggle ef the Democrats in the Forty-fifth and For-
tv-sixth congresses, by wnicn a reluctant tienuoacan
opposition was compelled to assent to legislation
making everywhere illegal the presence of troops at
the polls the conclusive proof that a Democratic
administration will preserve liberty with order. The
selection of Federal officers for the Territories should
be restricted to citizens previously resident thereof.
We onnose sumptuary laws, which vex the citizens
and intefere with individual liberty.
We favor an honest cu u service reform in compen
sation of all United States offices by fixed salaries, the
separation of Church and State, and the diffusion of
free education by oommja schools, so that Trr child

restraining the free action of labor, and the enact

We believe that .the public lands ought, as iar as
possible, to be kept as homesteads for actual settlers;
that all unearned lands heretofore iiuprovtdently
1 txt m-lrosid cnr.xrations by the Uepubliean
party should be restored to the public domain, and no
more grants shall be made to corporations, or be al
lowed to fall Into the ownership tf alien absentee.
We are oopoted to all propositions wnicn, upon any
pretext, would convert the general uovernmen uuo
a machine for the collection of taxes to be distributed
among the States or citizens therecf.
In reaffirming the: declaration cf the uenucrauc
platform of 1858 thaf'lhe liberal principles embodied
W .TAf?rsin in th? Declaration of Independence, and
n.-finriAil in i Vi Constitution, which makes ours the
land of liberty and the asylum cf the oppressed of
every nation, have eer been caramel imutijura ju
the Democratic faith,', we nevertheless do not junc
tion the importation of foreign lubor, or the admission
of servile races unfitod bv habits, trainine, religion or
kindred for absorption into the great body of our peo
ple, or to the citizenship whi. h our laws confer.
American civilization demands that against the immi
gration or importation ot Jloiigoliano to these shores
our gates should te closed'. . .
The Democratic party Insists mat it is tee
duty of the Government to protest with equal
fidelity and vigilance we ngnis oi its ciuzcus,
native or naturalized, at home and abroad;
and to the end that this protection may be assured,
United States papers of naturalization issued by
Courts of competent Jarlsdiction, must be respected
by the executive and legislative depaituicnts of our
own Government, and by s'l foreign powers. It is
an imperative duty of this G .vernment to etliciently
protect all the rights of persons and the proierty of
every American citizen in foreign lands, and demand
and enforce full reparation for any invasion thereof.
u American citizen is only responsible to his own
Government for any actdone hi his country, or under
her flag and law, enlj to be tried therefor on her
soil, and according' to her laws. No power exists in
this government to expatriate an American citizen, to
be tried in any foreign land for any such act.
. Thiscountry hasnever had any well-defined andexe
cuted foreign policy save under a Democratic adminis
tration that policy has ever been, in regard to for
eign nations, so long as they do no act detrimental to
the interests of the country or hurtful to our citizens,
to ' let them ; alone. .That as the result of
this' policy wo recall the acquisition "of Louisiana,.-
Florida California ami. of the adjacent
Mexican territory by purchase alone, and con
trait these grand acquisitions of Democratic statesman
ship with the purchase of Alaska the sole fruit of
Republican administration of nearly a quarter of a
century.
The General Government should care for
and improve the Mtssisgppi river and other great water
ways of the ltupublic, so as to secure for ti.e nterior
utates easy and cheap transportation to tide-water.
Under a long period of Democratic rule and policy
our merchant marine was fast overtaking, and on the
point of outstripping, that of Great Britain. Undergo
years of Uepubliean rule and policy our commerce has
been left to British bottoms and almost has the Ameri
can flag been swept off the high seas. Instead of
the Republican party's British policy, we demand
for the people of the United Stales an American policy.
Under Democratic rule and policy our merchants and
sailors flying the stars and stripes in every port, suc
cessfully searched out a market for the varied pro
ducts of American industry, '
Under a quarter of a century of Republican rule
and policy, despite our manifest advantages over
all other nations in high-paid labor, favorable
climates and teeming, soils despits the freedom of
trade among all these United States, despite their
population by tho foremost races of men and an an
nual immigration of the young, thrifty and adventur
ous of all nations: despite our ireedom here from in
herited burdens of life and industries in the oH
world monarchies, theiroootlywaruavies, their vast tax
consuming non-producing standing armies, despite 20
years of jcace, that Republican rule and policy have
managed to surrender to Great Britain, along with
our commerce, the control of the markets of the
V40"ld. Instead of the Uepubliean party's British policy,
we demand, in behalf of the American Democracy, an
American policy; intcail of .the Republican party's
discredited scheme ami false pretense of friendship to
American laber, expressed by imposing taxes, we de
maud in behalf of the Democracy, freedom for Amer
ican labor, by reducing taxes to the end that these
United States may compete with unliindcred powers
for primacy among nations in all the arts of peace
and fruits ot liberty. . -. ..
With protomid l egret we have been apprised by the
venerable statesman, through whose person wa.s struck
that blow at the vital principle of the republic ac
quiescence in the will of tha majority that ha can
net permit us again to place in his hands the leader
ship of the Democratic host, for the reason that the
achievements of reforni ia the administration of the
Federal Government is an undertaking now too heavy
for his age and failing strength. Kejoicing that his
life has been prolonged until the general judgment of
our fellow conntrunen is united in the wish that tho
wrong were lighted in his person for the Democracy
of the United States, we offer to him in his withdraw

and esteem, but also that best homngo of freeman,
