E VII lR, o! U Ul i.nl ill county . It. (UfV);.' I. ,.' U miiUi, county. BEN. HAKKISOX. Editors Democrat : In Ills letter of acceptance, Gen. Ben. Harrison treats the Chicago platform very much like he treats the Chinese and labor questions. That Is, his present views are at variance with his previous acts and declarations. In the case of the Chinese we find him favoring unrestricted immi gratlon of the Mongolian with citizenship and full competition with American labor ing men. In '77 -we find him prosecuting distressed American laboreis to such an ex tent that laborers of his own town and state have treasured up both his words and acts and hold them against him to day.and will on the sixth of November give full stress to their views, of a man that will belie every public act and vote he has ever given or made, thus sacrificing all principles in the hope of satisfying the injured class of American citizens sufficiently to gain their suffrage. This puling effort to pander to public sentiment appears also in his letter of acceptance in regard to the tariff plank of the platform he says he indorses, viz "We are not likely to be called upon to make a present choice between the sur render of the protective system and the tn tire repeal of the internal revenue," when he knows full well his party platform pledges them to an entire repeal of the in ternal revenue before surrendering any part of the protective system. Mr. Editor, this is the first time in the history of this government that trusts and monopolies have lifted their hydra heads and boldly demanded of labor its suffrage to perpet uate a system of war taxes that have en riched their own coffers at the exoense of labor, and the loading down the farms of the country of mortgages that can never be paid off. But t find in the East that the farmers and laborers are beginning to "see trees as men walking," the mists are breaking away and ere the ides of Novem ber shall roll around they will be found "clothed and in their right minds." They will condemn at the polls by their ballots the party and monopolies that would still enslave them by an exorbitant tax, four fifths of which goes into the pockets of these same trusts. The trusts, however, (which control the republican party by the way,) think laborers and farmers are fools and I believe they really think they can use them as cat's paws to pull out their (tax) chesnuts with, but they won't, and don't you forget it. Laborer. The farmtr element in the late republi can convention In Minnesota was repre sented on the committee on platform by a minority who. made a minority report, In which they placed thls plank : "While we ratify the nominations of Har. rison and Morton as our candidates for President and Vice-Presidentand will tup port them at the polls in November, and while we in the main,approve the platform adopted by the last republican convention, we,nevettheless,protrst against the doctrine of high protectiun,and demand a judicious and radical reduction in the present tariff. We are opposed to free whisky and tobacco, while we are compelled to pay high taxes on sugar and lumber." The plank was voted down, but it shows what sort of views Minnesota farmers have on the tariff question. It further shows that they fully and clearly understand that the national republican platform pledges them to give the country free whisky and tobacco and taxed necessaries of life. Dem ocrats are not the only ones who charge the republican party leaders with favoring free whisky. Levi P. Morton, when in Congress in 1880, voted for free sa't and free paper materials. He explained In 1886 that he did to because he believed that "the farm ers of the State of New York aid the country were entitled to the kind of foreign salt which they required in the manufact ure of butter, free of duty." So the Demo crats believe to-day, and therefore place salt on the free list. Mr. Blaine voted for free coal and free Limber. What a lot of Free Traders they were! The Oregon Scout has this cutting way of saying It: "Blaine is preparing another speech as a companion-piece to his "trust'' and "treaty" efforts. Poor Harrison mean while is In an agony of apprehension as to what fresh blunder Blaine will make. Har rison, "he pays the freight" on all this fun ny buslnesi of the "uncrowned king," and every speech has cost several electoral vot es, so far. It's a little rough on Harrison, but it may help Blaine." Bishop Ireland was fouryearsagoa warm supporter of Mr. Blaine. He is now equally anxious that President Cleveland should be re-elected, and this anxiety rests mainly upon hit belief that tariff reform would be of great benefit to the people of Minnesota. "A wool grower writes to ask if the price of wool is not affected by the duty, and whether it would not be greatly to the in terest of our wool-growers if tho former rate of duty were restored. In Oregon the duty makes little difference either way .The reduction of duty on wool, effected by the act that passed the last Congress was quite small, and in all probability if the amount were restored the Oregon wool-growers would never know it from any change in the market. Again, wool is governed in price more largely by its distance from the manufacturer and the cost of transpor tation than by the duty, and hence wool of like quality sells lower in Oregon than in London.because it is further from the man ufacturer." Oregouian, Sept. 21st, 1884. Sound as a dollar is this argument and statement of hct.but no sounder then than now. But the Oregoniat's subserviency as an organ grinder necessitates its eating crow, hence it is compelled to go back on the truth and fact so tersely 6tated above. If a wool-grower should now ask the Ore goiiian editor the question asked it four years ago it would answer that the price of wool is affected by the duty and that a re duction of the duty would be followed by an equal reduction in the price, which would be ruin, ruin, ruin to the industry. WUEKE TO 00. An Important Question.
