Vc appeal to fair-minded, candid repub licans to lay aside party prejudice long enough to settle this question : "Are you candid .'" If 60, then tell us why, after reading the following passage from Presi dent Cleveland s message, you should ever again call It a free traJe message : "It is not proposed to entirely relieve the country of this taxation. It must be ex tensively continued as the source of the Government's Income ; and in a readjust ment of our tariff the interests of Ameri can labor engaged in manufacture should be carefully considcred.as well as the pres ervation of our manufacturers. It may be called protection.or by any other name.but relief from the hardships and dangers of our present tariff laws 6nould be devised with especial precaution against imperiling the existence of our manufacturing inter ests. But this existence should not mean a condition which.wilbout regard to the pub lic welfare or a national exigency ,must al ways insure the realization of immense profits instead of moderately profitable re turns." Oh, weil, but you say that Cleveland recommended that wool should be put on the free list, therefore he is a free trader. But, if you are candid and determined to deal fairly and honestly with yourself you cannot call the message that recommends putting one or half a dozen articles on the free list a free trade one, while ii puts 4000 articles on the tariff or dutiable list. If you are candid and honest in the belief that Cleveland's message is a free trade one, then we can easily ptove that the re publican party has been a free trade party for long years. Read the following ex tracts candidly and honestly, and then say candidly and honestly what you think of them : Republican National Platform, 1S6S :' "It is due to the labor of the nation that taxa tion should be equalized and reduced as rapidly as the national faith will permit, Republican National Platform, 1S84 : "The republican party pledges itself to correct the inequalities of the tariff and to reduce the surplus." James G. Blaine, June 10, 18(18 : "Dur ing the entire war, when we were seeking cvervthing on the earth, and in the skies, and in the waters under the earth, out of which taxation could be wrung, it never entered into the conception of Congress to tax breadstuffs never. During the most pressing exigencies of the terrible contest in which we were engaged, neither bread stuffs nor lumber ever became the subject of one penny of taxation. Now, as to the article of lumber.I aain remind the House that there has never been a tax upon this article. I say that wherever the Western frontiersman undertakes to make for him self a home, to till the soil, to carry on the business of life, he needs lumber for his cabin, he needs lumber for his fence, he needs lumber for his wagon or cart,he needs lum ber for his plough, he needs lumber for al most every purpose in his daily life." President Grant, Annual Message, De- cember, 1874 : "Those articles which en ter into our manufactures,and are not pro duccd at heme, it seems to me, should be entered free. Those art'cles of manufac ture which we produce a constituent part of, but do not produce the whole, that part which we do not produce should be enter cd free also. I will instance fine wools, dyes, etc. These articles must be imported to form a part of the manufacture of the high er grades of woolen goods. Chemicals used as dyes, compounded in medicines,anduscd in various ways in manuf:tctures,come un der this class. The Introduction, free of duty, of such wools as we do not produce would stimulate the manufacture of goods requiring the use of those we do produce and therefore would be a benefit to home production. " President Grant, Annual Message, De cember, 1875 : "Many duties now collect ed, and which give but an insignificant re turn for the cost of collection, might be re mitted, and to the direct advantage of con sumers at home. I would mention those articles which enter Into manufactures of all sorts. All duty paid upon such ai tides goes directly to the cost of the article when manufactured here.and must be paid forbv the consumers. These duties not onlv The disposition manifested by the low A and Wisconsin republicans to cater to the farmer element this year is a significant fact. It indicates that the tariff is to be more of an issue in the Northwest this year than the republican managers have been willing to admit ; and it is also a confession that the republican farmers arc oil the tariff reform side of the question. It is hardly possible that, under other circumstances, W. D. Hoard could have been nominated for Governor in Wisconsin, or that the anti-corporation clement could have won so easy a victory in the Iowa state republi can convention. Minnesota republicans find themselves in pretty much the same condition that their brethren In Iowa and Wisconsin were caught. The anti-monopoly sentiment is too strong for the bosses to stem, and, although it it like pulling their eye-teeth to do it.the bosses will have to make concession to the farmer vote. Scheffer and his alliance platform is an awfully bitter pill for the corporation man agers of the republican party tq swallow, but it looks as if they would have it to do. Over 50,000 collected about Madison Square, New York, last night to hear the "Old Roman" speak, but unfortunately he was too ill to make a speech. It was a graml meeting withal, and demonstrated the remarkably strong hold which Mr. Thurman has on the laboring people of New York City. Robert Blcakie, one of the largest manu facturers of woolen goods in America, and a wealthy carriage maker of Bridgeport, Conn, has declared himself in favor of Cleveland and tariff reform. The Republicans who have been exceed ly anxious for President Cleveland's letter of acceptance exhibit no impatience what ever at General Harrison's delay in produc ing hiii. They know which will be the best worth reading. P&trooize hume imlustry. Try on Jo-pus 5-ceut cigar, rirst ct his own in .ku. WHEltE TO UO. Ait Important Question.
