Tin: act of congress puniidiing by u
fine nnd inij)risoiiincnt tiny porton
sending n iostnl card through the
mail containing menacing or insulting
language is now in force.
A limit ought to be placed upon
the immigration of the Chincno to the
United .States if indeed that immi
gration ought not to be stopped alto
gether. Am.kn (!. Tnuit.MA.v, in the
Senate, 187!).
MrtH. Vaazk Wilcox is the only per
boii born in the White Jlouhc. She
was the only daughter of President
Jaekt-on's adopted n, and was born
in the presidential mansion during the
administration of "Old Hickory."
It is charged that the Mills bill is
sectional and unfair in that it favors
the southern sugar making interest as
against the wool interest of the north.
Texas is the largest wool growing state
in the union. It produces mote wool
than all New England, New York and
Pennsylvania combined. How is this?
Ci.kvki.ani saved the settlers of the
West from encroachment upon their
farms by the great railway thieves,
and this fact will not be forgotten by
the bono and sinew of the land that
makes up the great mass of tho voters,
and they will conlide in him all over
country to protect them from imposi
tion of monopolists.
Jilt. 0i.i:vi:i.ani is the only leader
in the country in tho past quarter of a
ccutury who has found hiimelf strong
er at the end of his term than at tho
beginning, whom his party has taken
up a second time, who went into tho
convention with n ununimuus vote be
hind him, and without the slightest
speck of opposition.
AriM.KtiATi:, in his speech Monday
night, said that the republican party
brought President Cleveland into
prominence by electing him Oovernor
of New York in order to kill oil Kol
ger. The scheme, it seems, has acted
something like Mark Twain' Allen
pistol. Jt scattered, killing Jim Maine
and making a eripplo of the republi
can party for life.
Tiik Commissioner of tho General
Land OH'tce has just completed a tab
ulated statement showing that the
total amount of land returned to the
public domain, and opened to entry
and settlement since the -1th of March,
1880, is 80,(!)(),720 acres. Also a
statement showing tho total amount
recommended by tho Land Ollice for
restoration, which is still ponding,
amounting to lf,-U0,0f8.
A HTitoxti ofl'ort has been made by
tho republican advocates of high tat ill'
taxation to create the impression that
the proposed removal of the taiill' on
wool has already lowored its price.
Hut tho quotations in tho Hostou mar
ket show that prices are about tho
same as last year and the year before.
As reported in llradstreot's for Juno 2,
tho pi ice of Texas wool is only one
cent lower than it was in 18S7 and
1880, and that of lino Ohio delaine
and No. 1 combing is tho same as in
Piiksidknt Ahtiiuu was a republi
can, elected by republican votes. Did
his party kick when tho following ap
peared in his last message to congiess
"I recommend an enlargement of the
free lit, so as to include within the
numerous articles which yield incon
siderable revenue, a simplification of
the complex and inconsistent schedule
of duties upon certain manufactures,
particularly those of cotton, iron and
steel, and a substantial reduction of
the duties upon those articles, and
upon sugar, molasses, wool and woolen
goods."
Tjie San Francisco lixaminer says:
"Tho platform demands protection.
Protection to what? Labor and capi
tal? That was tho question that re
mained to bo settled irrevocably by
tho nomination of Ilenjamin J. Har
rison. Wo triitst we shall bo spared
any personal scandals in this cam
paign. There will, however, certainly
bo no need of personal slanders, when
there is such a public record as Har
rison's to discuss, California has
never had an opportunity to show,
unmistakably, her opinion of a pro
Chinese candidate. This year wo
shall hnvo a square chanco at one
man whom California robublioans, in
1632, Hwore nover to forget."
SKXATOll SIUCIIMAN SPKAKH.
Senator Sherman in a speech de
livered at Cincinnati on the Gth inst.
said :
1 do not want to make any long
speeches; this is not the place for them.
Loud eii'S of "Go on." No, I won't,
at least, not to any length, Hut, gen
tlemen, there inane thing I mtrnt speak
to you about. I don't want to ting in
any politic?, and 1 will not, boniusf I
know that 1 would uiller witn some ol
you, "No, you won't. Let's have it."
lint I won't. There is, however, one
thing that effects you and tho whole
country, and that is the surplus in tho
treasury. Which has accumulated
there under the solons at Washington
and tome who tin! are not solons.
This I do not want to be considered as
coming from a political point. I5ut
you all know how much good that im
mense sum could do if it was let looso
here. Yon could use it, I am certain.
The great question i how to get it. I
believe that all parties admit that it
is poor policy t( have so much sur
plus in the trcn.-ury, and that what wo
need is just enough funds on hand to
answer the purposes of the govern
ment, eccnomicallv conducted. The
only way to decrease this is to reduce
the revenue. 1 believe you have fie
quently heard President Cleveland say
this, and 1 think you can find frequent
references to it in Mr. .Sherman's
speeches. Wo agree upon this one
point, but there is an honest difference
as to bow it shall be done. The all im
portant question is what taxes shall be
cut and what remain. I want (lie rev
enue cut to the standard of the re
quirements of tho governmrnt, the
same as it was when I entered Congress
thirty-four years ago. It is a subject
everybody is interested in, and all have
their methods, lint I am getting into
politics. "Go on; that's all right,"
from a sere of voices. Not any fur
ther this time. It's too deep n sub
ject. Hut I will say that Congress
ought to take action on it right away
and settle the question before going
any further. This in the time right
now, and il is that body.s prompt ac
tion that will relievo us. This fact is
appreciated no better in any part of
the country than in the (iieen city of
the West yes, I may say with especial
emphasis just now, the (iieen city of
the country.
The manly utterances of John Sher
man if put in practical operation will
insure the election of Cleveland and
Thurman. If be will father a measure
to reduce tho taxes to what they weie
when he entered Congress thirty-four
years ago, he will do his country the
greatest service of his life. When Mr.
.Sherman was secretary of the treasury
ho occupied substantially the same po
sition on the tariff question that (Move
land now occupies, but Sherman as a
politician and Sherman as secretary of
the treasury have been two distinct and
different men, as much so as Sherman
as a presidential aspirant and Sherma n
as a citizen addressing his neighbors
at Cincinnati could possibly be, and
since he can no longer hope to bo the
nominee of Ins party for the piesidency
of tho United Slates, it is earnestly
hoped and believed that he will, ere
the close of tho present campaign raise
his voice in honest protest against a
policy which, if successful, willl cer
tainly destroy our American institu
tions, by fostering a consolidation and
combination of capital, to tho distrac
tion of the unprotected industries of
our people. That Sherman and the
belter element of his party will enter
their emphatic protest against the
embryo policy of the element that has
thiough manipulation and intrigue
gained the ascendency, we have every
reason to hope ami believe. They can
not be blind to the disastrous results
that must follow the inauguration of
the policy indicated by the Chicago
platform.
SlUXFCAXT STIIA )VS,
The P.oston I 'Hot, which, under
tho editorship of John Uoyle ()' Ueilly ,
is the leading Irish-American paper
in tho eountrv, opposed Mr. Cleve
land in 18SI, bulls now strongly in
favor of his re-election. In its last
issuo it thus speaks of tho President:
There is not a sincere Democrat in
the country with whom principle is
deeper than personality, who does
not profoundly believe that Mr.
Cleveland is the best man tho Demo
cratic party could nominate, and that
ho deserves the great place lor his
wise, thin and magnanimous course
during the past four years.
The mistakes of the" Democratic ad
ministration have not been in tho
President's mistakes, Some of tho
men ho selected for his cabinet have
hampered his work and most gravely
threatened the stability ot tho Demo
cratic party. Hut these men were in
truth more tho choice of tho parly
itself than of the President.
Mr. Cleveland will lead an undivid
ed national party to the polls. His
opponents have not a man lurgo
enough to show again.! him, now
that Hlainc i out or the Held. We
shall march onward to a DoiiioctmiIo
victory thai must result in such h re
iifliruiHtiou tif Democratic loyalty to
nrlnclplcs as the fttllior of the repub
lic would approve nnd tlio future will
endorse.
The Providence ,ournat, tho lead
ing Kepublii'nn paper of Itliude Ulntid,
holts Harrison. It siiys:
The Journal uollevu, that upon tin
question thu Douiyvmilu policy nnd
, platform are right , and the 1'epnbli
' can policy and platform are wrong
J It had hoped that the party in conven
j tion would declare for ti reasonable
revision of tlio tariff, in the line of a
. reduction in theco't of the nccessa
' t ies of life, the relief of manufactures,
a more open market and a practical
revival of mir commerce. It has not
done so. The Democratic party has.
It is a question of National policy
overshadowing all others. The '
mil i not blind to the shortcomings of
Iho Administration of President Cleve
land. n,it it must take
things as it finds them, choosing what
it believes to be Hie right side of the
main issue preferring principle to
party, practical wisdom to local popu
larity; and standing for what it be
lieves to be tho best welfare of the
whole eountrv.
Mr. Samuel Douglass, formerly a
l.epublican, and later on State Secre
tary of the Indiana Orecabaekers and
Independents, when interviewed by
the Sentinel as to the strength of Mr.
Harrison in Indiana, said:
There are 20,000 independent voters
in Indiana, and they consist mostly of
tlio remains of ibe old Greenback par
ty. They will vote solidly against
Mr. Harrison. They are very bitter
against liiin because of bis having
'called ihem "idiots and (it subjects
I Imp u Ittnof iii MLvltim ' ' iti fluk itmioca if

a speech delivered at Martinsville, In
diana, in I87(i. The Greeubaekcrc of
Indiana will consider it their dutv to
turn out for Cleveland as against Har
rison. The policy of the present
Administration has also been very
acceptable to the Greenback party, the
tariff views of the two parties being
almost, coincident. Tlio manner in
which the Ailniiui-I ration lias been
paying off bonds is also approved by
our parly.
Other Grconbackers whom Sentinel
reporters encountered during the af
ternoon talked in a similar strain , and
asserted that the men who had allied
themselves with the Greenback move
ment a tew years ago would vote as it
unit against General Harrison.
" Won't some of I hem support him
through Stale pride?'' was asked.
'They don't care anything about
State pride," was the ready answer.
' 'It is enough lor tin in to know that
they were called idiots and fools bv
Ibis man whom the licptthlicaus have
nominated for President, and they'll
have none ot'liini, ' '
SethLow, of P.rooklyn, a reform
Republican of the first merit and
great prominence in New York, an
nounces himself for Cleveland. Mr.
Low was proposed as a Presidential
candidate bin-self, and a correspond
ent said ot iiiin :
While the politicians at Chicago
are getting their forces together for
the great competing struggle, allow
an outsider to siignest that the name
of Seth Low of lirooklyn would unite
Ilium. It scenis to me that name
would calm their troubled spirits and
bring together all the torces that
would be against Cleveland. With
such a man it the bead of the liepub
liean ticket inethiiiks there would be
no question about carrying New York
Slate, and with New Yoik all tho
balance of the States which voted for
ltlaiue in 1SKI .
Hut Seth Low's inllueiicc is on the
Democratic side this year.

The following telegram to (he ew
York Hirnld, dated Helena, M.T..
Juno 2i). 1NSS, will show the position
taken bv tho Chinese in this campaign.
It says:
Chin Wah I'oo, a wealthy Chinese
tea merchant, of San Francisco, is in
Helena on a visit to his brother Chang
I'oo. Chin Wah is an intelligent gen
tleman, who speaks Fnglish fluently.
Ho has a knowledge of the affairs of
the leading governments possessed by
few A nigricans, lie takes a keen in
terest in the political situation and
claims to have taken out his naturali
zation papers. lie was seen by a
llvrtthl correspondent, who asked him
about Harrison's chances for carrying
the Golden Slate. He said that no
man could have been nominated by
tho republicans who could poll as
largo a voto in California as Mr. Har
rison. "Isn't it true that California wants
the i hiiiese to go?"
Nothing ot the kind, That cry
was taken up by the hoodlums after
Dennis Kearney had promulgated it
in bitter speeches ho made against our
race in his notorious sand lots ad
dresses. ' '
"Tho citizens and Chinamen aro.
then, on tho best terms?' '
"Hxactly, the prejudice against
our race is wholly confined to tho ig
norant and illiterate classes. ' '
"And they are ?"
"Democrats. The enlightened
people in California are republicans.
There is a large Chinese population in
California, a all know, but whnt
very few people know is our power
and strength there. Chinese are bet
ter fixed financially according to their
number than Americans, and I am
willing to waer any amount that we
contribute more generously to a earn

"The Chinese, then, arc republi

"To a man. The allegiance of the
colored race to the republican party is
nothing compared with the love tho
Chinese have for the party. The time
will conic, and that shortly, when we
shall be allowed to vote, and then it
is but natural that wc should remem

"That may be true, but how will
