Some time since republican organs start ed the report that Archibald Lliin.lliegrelt woolen manufacturer, ef Portland, Maine, would vote for Harrison. On being inter viewed he said : "When the tariff was put on wool, our wool went down ami has been low ever since, and if the duty on wool is removed I am sure the price will advance. A large class o( people in this country wear and will have goods that can only be made of the fine wools grown in Australia and New Zealand and at the Cape of Good Hope. But because of the tariff on these wools, which cannot be grown in this country ,they can only be bought at a price "so high that our home manufacturers cannot compete with foreign goods. We have put up the bars and glutted the foreign wool markets with very cheap wools.enabling the foreig manufacturers to build mills and manufac ture goods which arc sent into this and other countries cheaper than we can man ufacture them. For this reason manufac turers in this country have to tear up old woolen rags over and over again and ii the endeavor to meet the foreign manufac turers in price have to bear down on the wool growers, and they are forced to shut down their mills because they have not cheap stock, while the foreign manufactu ers can buy fine wool as cheap per poun as tne manufacturers in this country hav to pay for half shoddy and half cheap wool, Now, if the wools we cannot grow were allowed to come in free of duty we would be able io build more mills to make the fine goods that are so largely imported to-day Millions ot pounds ot shoddy would nav to go to the dogs and we should use much mote wool. The Alia has this pointed way of dishing up the fishery question : "Just as we ex pected, afr. Blaine objects to having the British lion's tail twisted so it will hurt. Mr, Blaine's Idea is that the lion's tail should only be twisted with a view to catch ing the Irish vote, and not with such rude ness as to disturb the liqn. The"uncrown ed king" points out with truth that all hi twisting has never fcaused the lion a mo ment's uneasiness, but that the moment Mr. Cleveland tried his hand there was roar from Ottawa to Bombay. This, in Mr. Blaine's opinion, should teach us that the lion's tail should only be twisted by its friends." , A dispatch from New Augusta,Ind.,says that Thomas J. Hudson, who has lately re nounced the Republican faith, delivered an address before the New Augusta Ban danna club on "Tariff Reform," on Satur day evening. Mr. Hudson has been a life long Republican, but upon a careful, close and unprejudiced study of the issues Invol ved In this campaign, he acknowledges that the Democratic idea Is the right one. The Boston Journal is out with a wild wall that the republican "wheels must be greased," and James P. Foster Is out with another letter in which he says "unless exeat effort is made In the next three months there it danger that Grover Cleve land will be etected. Give us means and we will do our duty.'' Evidently the pro tected manufacturers who "get substantial ly all the benefits of protection" refuse put up. Here, here, Mr. Powderly, this will never do at all. You musn't tell folks that the men in the Pennsylvania mines wear brass tags on their belts and are known by num bers ; that they live on pork and water,and sleep like pigs in a pen. Don't you know tnat the tariff keeps workingmen's wages up aboye the level of the pauper labor of Europe ? For shame I When a Protection organ will give the real reason why the wages of woolen weav ers averaged $7.50 per week In Rhode Is land and $24 per week in Utah, In 18S0, it will tell the main cause of the difference In wages in this country and in England. And that cause is found In the demand for labor, and Its supply, at any time and in any place, Four years ago to-day the Orrgonian said : "Blaine will be elected if the prohibition vote of Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin auc lowa does not defeat hhn. Herein, ac cording to the present outlook, Is his only possibility 01 lauure. The' prophecy was a failure as the prohi bition vote In these states did not defeat Blaine, nevertheless he was beaten. The importation of "foreign pauper la borers, not the Importation of cheap for eign goods,ts what drives down the wages of American workmen. The testimony before the Ford Investigating committee in New York gives many conclusive proofs of this. A dispatch from Beaver, Pennays that George V. Dawson, a pronounced In ion Labor man, who attended the Cincinnati convention recently In the capacity of del egate, has openly announced his Intention of voting for Cleveland and Thurman. to We say, not only that the country has never been so prosperous and labor has never been so contented as under low tariff s.but that low tariffs have been the only tariffs with which the peopte have been entirely contented and have uot asked for a change. We say,further,that If there were danger from a low tariff at all tariff at all in the present case, the amount of reduc tion under the Mills bill is so moderate as not to possibly affect the laboring man. The attempt to alarm him is purely politic. al, and he will do well to remember the factbeth for his own comfort and that he may not be moved to vote against his con victions by a mistaken idea of self-interest. A dispatch from Bellcfonte, Penn., 1 that Charles Price and his two sons have just come over for Cleveland and reform He voted the Greenback ticket a few years age, but before was always a stiff republi can, and had declared his intention to vote the republican ticket this fall. His sons, who have just become of age, one voting the republican ticket last fail, will both vote the democratic ticket this year. Robert and Clark Glenn, two old-time republicans of West Liberty, Penn., whi have supported that party since its organ Ization, and who are among the largest wool growers in Butler county , will vote for Cleveland, Thurman and reform this fall Notice of Removal. Michael Donahue, of Clinton, 111., a life long republican, spoke before the Waynes- ville, Tuscaroras (democratic) club Satur day night. Mr. Donahue says he is a re publican on all but the tariff issue. His attitude creates quite a sensation in politi cal circle'. Congressman Edmund Rice of Minne sota, says his state is alive for tariff reform and there will be" enormous democratic gains. He also believes that Congressman Knute Nelson will finally come out in sup port of Mr. Cleve'and, in which event the Scandinavian vote would largely follow his lead. - W. Dayton Quick, a well known genera insurance agent of Buffalo.N. Y.,has voted the republican tisket for 22 years. He now says : "I intend to vote for Cleveland Thurman and tariff reform if my life is spared until the 6th of November." A dispatch from New Palestine,Ind.,say that Ezra Eaton, a republican and ex-post master of Sugar Creek, has declared him self for Cleveland and Thurman. Will be Ready. E. B.
