Democratic papers are are not alone in laving to the door of the republican party the charge of having adopted a free whisky platform at Chicago. The following ex tracts from the Capital Journal of Salem that floats the names of Harrison and Mor. ton at its mast head shows the only candid viev that can be taken of the free whisky plank ; "That free whisky pank in the Chicago platform is a piece of unsound timber, and already it is causing serious trouble. Democrats and prohibitionists hold it up to public reprobation, and com ing from a party of professedly high moral idea,lt is an awkward saying to get away with." Again it says : "Free whisky and taxed necessaries, as a number of our exchanges are putting it. It h a new departure; it is not republican doctrine, and it will cause a terrible strain from now till the election." Again : "Whisky held high carnival in Chicago while the convention was in ses sion. The California delegation carried a bar along with them and an accomplished mixologist to dispense the refreshments. The New York delegation took Sheridan Shook, the bossbrewcr,as their leader,and when their supplies gave out, raided the bar-rooms at several towns on their way. There was disorder in the convention hall, and when the cooler headed sought to tone down excess,clamor carried the day and the voice of the noisiest prevailed." The charge is absolutely a true one and susceptible of irrefragible proof. One has only to read the platform to find it. A correspondent in Georgetown, Clay county, Minnesota,writeft to the New York Standard, as follows : The tariff question not only wi'l be,but now is,the ruling topic lr, all circles here. Of course we are large ly divided on the subject, but the sentiment is rapidly growing in favor of abolishing a system of taxation that taxes a man not in proportion to his ability to pay, but in pro portion to the number of backs he has to clothe and the mouths he has to fill. You may imagine the spread of more liberal ideas throughout our state when I mention that we have fallen off from a 40, 000 republican majority to the status of a doubtful state. It is a doubtful state only in the minds of politicians and wirepullers, for there is no reasonable doubt but that the scheme of taxing the many to benefit the few wtll be snowed under by the intelli gent votes of Minnesota's clear headed.right thinking citizens. The issue is before us and we have sense enough to see that cat clearly enough. "In. studying up history and looking for parallels," says the Chicago Herald (Dem.) "it m'ght be as well to remember that 1S40 was not the first time Gen. Harrison ran for President. He was a candidate first in 1S36, and was as badly defeated by Van Buren as the latter afterward was by him. So that if the grandson is going to be like the grandfather he must stand a defeat in lSSS as preliminary to success in 1S9;." The Ilcarld adds that the political condi tions now more closely resemble those o' 1836 than of 1S40. Mrs. Garfield is rich. Gen. Garfield estate netted the widow about $4o,ooo,and in addition she received $25,000 insurance on his life. Congress, it will be remem bered, voted her an annual pension ot $5, 000, and gave her besides $40,000, which would have been the balance of the salary due the President at the end of I he first VPnt In nftt.. t.i.1 1... I 'ft t J- ....u t iiuu. i lie amount oil the popular subscription raised directly after Garfield's death, when invested for her in Government bonds.aggrcgatcd $312,000. It will be observed,thereforc,that she is quite comfortable when it comes to hard cash.and her yearly income must beat least $25,000. A satisfying figure, Isn't it Wong Chi'i Koo, Kditor of the Ciincsr American In New York city, put Harrison's picture in hi paper, and supports him. Another prominent New York Chinese business man, when interview ed, said : "No likce Cleveland ; he Democlat ; Democlat Ilish. I ish no good fob Chinaman." When will the Hoard of Trade take up the subject of inducing the investment of foreign capital in Albany? To make the city have a permanent, substantial growth something of this kind must be done. Thev alone prosper who take hold and help themselves. "I have been a Republican for years, but, like cxMayor Low and others, I intend to support and vole for Giovcr Cleveland," says Kev. Stephen l)c Kins of Gieennoint, L. I. The Republican party is going up salt river in a very tippy ranee. TlllTHrTb FOB ONCE. The editor of the Kinsley Mercury is a rcpublican.while his wife, who seems to be the best man of the two, is a democrat Wednesday the editor went to the ball came leaving his wife in charge 01 me 01 ficc.and that day the following was the first item under the local news : "Cleveland will be re-elected President In November by an overwhelming majority. The dem ocratic party will win because it is right. Cleveland has made the best President this country has ever had, and if every state in the Union would elect none but democrats there would be less stealing and meanness going on. The editor has gone out to the ball game and left his wife in charge, and she gladly embraces the opportunity of in jecting a little truth into the Mercury just for a change. Mrs. 11. A WARNING TO OTHER CIU'RCHT"1-. Last Sunday church goers in a small town in the western part of Minnesota were not a little surprised when they had settled in their pews to see staring them from the wall back of the preacher's desk the following card.written wi'h charcoal on a piece of white cotton cloth : "Members of this church will refrain from wiping their forehead with red band annas during services until after tne next Presidential election, as sucli an act would encourage democrats present !o cheer for Grover Cleveland and prove a serious In terruption to the divine services. George Squires, Pastor." A great many colored men in New York City declare their intension of votiDg for Cleveland, Thurman and tariff reform. MCALISTER & WOODWARD.
