EGYPTIAN DARKNESS.
"The Democratic cry sf free whisky to
meetche Protectionist's charge on free
trade Is one of that party's uusally silly ways
" ' cui ijucsiiuu. i-vow, 00 incy
mean to seriously say that the Protection
ists of the country propose to take off the
present amy ot J per proof gallon on
spirituous liquors? We do not think, that,
with all their stupidity and lack of informa
tion on economic subjects, they mean this,
no 11 nor, wnai oo tney mean t Are Pro
tectionisteinfavorof'free Iron and steel be-
muse nicy uo not impose an internal reve
nue tax on those productions?" ,.
The democrats have not charged that the
protectionists mean to take off the present
duty on spirituous liquors, but they have
cnarged.ana truthfully too, that you pro
pose to take 90 cents per gallon internal
revenue tax off spirituous liquors before you
would surrender any fart of the protective
system. This can not be denied and conse
quently the cry of free whisky is most ap'
propriately brought to the doors of the re
publican party. The whole trouble with
the Herald seems to be that it does not com
prehend the difference between an internal
revenue tax and a duty levied upon import
ed goods.
Missouri boasts of a larger school fund
than any state in the Union except Texas,
has 8,o male teachers, whose average
salaries are $63.30 per month, and 6,000 fe
male teachers whose average monthly
wages arc $36.36.
The Tariff Reform clubof Chicago nimi
hers about six hundred members, and of
these four hundred and cighty-fiye were
former republicans, who freely state the
reasons for their support of Mr. Cleveland
and his policy.
Maine is not the republican candidate
this year, but he is doing most of the run
ning all the same.
A LITTLE FKiUKING.
From Albany to llarrlsburg in Linn
county is twenty-five miles by rail. It re
quires 2200 tons of steel rails to lay a rail
road track that far. The duty on steel rails
under the piescnt law Is $17 per ton, or a
total duty on the rails necessary to lay
twenty-five miles of track of $37,400. The
Mills bill reduces this from $37,400 to $24,
200. The duty on the rails necessary to
lay one mile of track is $h6. The rail
roads do not pay this in fact, but the farm
ers, merchants and other people who pa
tronize the road in freight or travel.When
we consider the duty on all the other iron
and steel appliances used by railroads, this
tax will amount to $2000 per mile. No
wonder there is a constantly growing de
mand for reduction of the tariff.
DID YOU VOTE FOB JACKSON f
Republican papers east are devoting
much time in finding out the namesof per
sons who voted for grandpa Harrison, and
who now intend to vote for the grand son.
The Democrat would like to publish all
the namesof those of its readers who voted
for general Jackson. Send in your names
on a postal card and we will publish them
in a few weeks when all are sent in.

They were standing on the street corner
discussing the merits of their candidates
with much zeal and earnestness. As a
clincher, the republican raised his right
hand in an earnest emphatic attitude and
said: "Now just tel! me of a single foreign
nation that does not want Cleveland elect
ed." The democrat with a readiness suit
ed to the occasion answered, "China.". The
republican walked away with a shame
faced air and held his peace.
