A. 1 lartshorn.an emissary of the protected monopolies of the country ,is now (ravelin? all over the United Slates organ izing the American ' Protective Tariff League. He is in Portland now engaged in organizing one of these bodies. It is a secret organization and is spending hun dreds of thousands of dollars to rivit high taxation upon the people. Among those who are signers of this league is the Stand ard Oil Company, and other big monopo lies, Depew, Claus Sprockets, Lcland Stan ford, Steve Dorsey, J. H. Mitchell, J. N. Dolph and others. They are now sending out tons of literature and the question naturally arises, where does all the money come from to pav these traveling agents and the expenses of printing and mailing of tons of war tax literature now beingsent to every nook and corner of the country Gentle reader, the protected manufacturers of the country furnish the money out of the lavish profits made by having such a high protective tariff upon their productions The mass of the people whoconsume these protected articles are they in fact who pay this money in the increase of the goods they consume. Hence the people are tax ed to maintain and perpetuate - law whose burden they labor to relieve themselves of. When will the people open their eyes If those who arc so devotedly in earnest in perpetuating the onerous taxes of war times, could hold their breath long enough from bawling "free trade" to read the fol lowing resolution tal.en from the National democratic platform, they would.if hones, ceae such silly cry : "Our established domestic industries and enterprises should not, and need not,be en dangered by the reduction and correction , pf the burdens of taxation. On the con jfjry, fair and careful revision of our tax iawliWith d'16 allowancg for the derence 'oeiween the wages of American and for eTgn Tabor must promote and encourage every branch of such industnes and ente. prises,and by giving them assurances of an extended market and steady and continuous ,inn. In the interests of American labor.which should in no event be neglect ed, the revision 01 our tax plated by the democratic party should pro mete the advantage of such labor by cheap ening the costs of the necessaries of life in the home of every workingman,and at the same time securing to him steady and re munerative employment." The poison known as "rough on rats"has at length attracted attention of men whose opinion should have weight in leading to a restriction of its sale as other deadly pois ons are restricted. The Brooklyn, New York, board of pharmacy has just taken official cognizance of i, and the rather re markable fact has been brought out that notwithstanding the part it has played In the courts and the number of suicides by its use, this convenient means of murder and self-destruction has never been officially analyzed. The board.however, secured an unofficial analysis for their own atisf action) and the result exceeded their apprehension for they discovered that not less than 90 per cent of the stuff is arsenic. As a result it has issued a circular to the 350 druggists doing business in Kings county, notifying them that "rouub on rats" must hereafter be sold under the law regulating the regis tration and proper labeling of poisonous drugs. The money now lying idle in the Federal Treasury resulting from superfluous taxa tion amounts to more than $125,' ,oc, and the surplus collected readies the sum of more than $6o,ooo,c x annually. De bauched by this immense temptation, the remedy of the republican party Is to meet and exhaust by extravagant appropriations and expenses,whether constitutional or not, the accumulations of extravagant taxa tions. The democratic f.jllcy is to enforce frugality In public expense and to abolish - unnecessary taxation. National Demo- ctatic platform. THK II1KKEUENCE. When the republicans, under the direc tion of their 1'resiJent, Secretary 01 .c TreasuryTariff Commission and Congies- sional leaders.proposcd in !M to rcuuLL a per cent tariff to an average of 3(,-4 " was called by thcnV'a proper and necessary revision." When the democrats, in the face ot a larsrer surplus than then e::istcd,propooe to reduce a 47 per cent tariff to .jo per cent it is called "British free trade." The Republican National Convention pledged itself in 1SS4 to "correct the ine qualities of the tanffand reduce me sur plus." During two, sessions ot congress thereafter the republicans voted solidly a"ainst even the consideration of tills sub- ject.and are now fighting,"tooth and nail, every line of a bill fr?ined to carry out this P,edSe- , ,,,, The Democratic Convention in ii54 made the same promlse.in different terms, and is at last uni'ed and earnest in trying to redeem it. Thisisthc present and the main differ ence in the twe parties. The platform adopted by the National Democratic Conventon will take rank with the best documents of its kind. It is well written; it deals with living issues; it truthful in the claims it makes in behalf of the pa'ty whose principles it declarer and it shows moderation in its strictures upen the opposition. Jt indorses the views ex presed'by President Cleveland in his las annual message. It emphatically demands a reform of the tariff system, the modifica tion of unjust and unequal tax laws, the re duction of war burdens, the extension of our markets, the cheapeningof necessaries of life, greater freedom fr our fettered in dustries and more remunerative employ ment for the wageworkers. mm I baye just received an invoice of the celebrated Thompson Glove Fitting Corset, ooe of tlm oldest d Host reliable make known. Ialnokeep a full assortment c The Ball's Coil Spring Health Corse i Dr. Warner's Health Corset, Besides a full line of Mr. Cleveland can well afford to be" a little superstitious about the name Daniel. Prniel Lockwood has heretofore placed him In nomination for every office he has held. Daniel Manning managed his cam paign, and was a strong memberof a stiong Cabinet. Daniel Lamont is his invaluable private secretary. The word Daniel signi fies "judg.nent of God," and very appro priate it is. To the Thinking People op Albany Friends : Imumuch as this is the day and age of sensational advertising and every business man Is racking his brain trying to concoct some scheme whereby he can get ahead of his neiehbor. We wish to deviate roin that rule and make the following state ments, knowing that they will be appre ciated by all lovers of truth ar.d justice. W are here in business for the purpose of making money and we realize that In ordet to accomplish that object we must have a continuance of our large patronage. Furth ermore we know that this can be assured only bv extreme effort on our part and we wish to state that we will at all times give you hrst-class goods at prices as low 01 lower than any house in Albany and in ad dition allow you 5 per cent off on all cash pu chases. Ihe statement made by some dealers that they can buv cheaper than o.hers is folly in the extreme as all cash buyers have equal advantages one with an other. What we are striving to do is to merit your patronage and we hope by square, upright dealing to do so and be 01 mutual benefit one to another.

Here was a fine oppor tunity for Congress to give the farmer and wheat grower a little legislation that wouM benefit him. The republicans, including Hermann, voted against it. These repub lican leaders talk very nicely to farmers before election but entirely forget them after election. The Republican organs, having spent considerable portion of the past three years in extolling the virtues of Allen G. Thur man, will find their new position a decided misfit every time they attempt to sail in and abuse hiin. It is only a small or mean man that will attack a woman. To which class docs Forakcf belong, that he rails against the venerable and respected wife of Judge Thurman? QUICK SALES, SMALL PROFITS. BIG BUSINESS, la what we hum nd hartte for.
