H It V1 ( Hi'ti.mh crj-ity . I. lCIJVl;.'l ; Jiiii.ii. cuuuly. Gen. Harrison accuses the Democratic Administration of "nursing the surplus.' Isn't this better than squandering it, as the republicans in Congress have tried to do ? Judge Thurman will speak in Indiana as follows: Shelbyville, October 15th, at which time an immense barbecue will be had. Peru, October 17th, and at Bnzil, October 20th. Every citizen in this land is a sover -;jn The labor must have an equal standing be fore the law with the millionaire. That is why every vote this fall to put an end to class legislation- "We do not offer a fixed schedule but a principle,"says Mr. Harrison of the repub lican position on the tariff. The schedule is already "fixed" at the war average of 47 per cent, and the republicans in Congress resist every effoit to lower it. The "prin ciple" they offer is that the politicians can spend all that the people will pay. The doctors disagree. Dr. Harrison says he "doubts not some effective legisla tive means will be found of dealing with trusts " Dr. Blaine says"trusts are largely private affairs with which neither President Cleveland nor private citizens (through legislatures or congress) have any particu lar right to interfere." Of the 225 labor papers that is on our ex change list we find that about 12$ advocate a modified tariff as represented by the democratic platform, about 35 in favor o absolute free trade, about 40 in favor of high tariff,and the balance divided between the Union Labor and United Labor tickets, without regard to the tariff question. Critic. Henry Cabot Lodge,republican member of Congress from Massachusetts, said, in Sep'cmber,iSS4 : "Grave public questions confront us. There is a large.perilous and growing surplus in the revenues. It must be removed, not by needless and extrava gant expenditures, not by abolishing the proper taxation of whisky and tobacco, but by freeing entirely those great necessaries of life which enter into the daily consump tion of every household, and by wise and discriminating reductions." Now this man is shouting for Harrison and demanding the repeal of the tax on whisky before re ducing any tariff duty. Ex-Senator Joseph E. McDonald says of democratic prospects in Indiana : "I re gard the situation in Indiana as very favor able to the success of the democratic party. Neither the republican party nor the dem ocratic party has a majority in the state, and the elements out of which they have to secure a majority are now favorable to the democrats rather tljan to the republi cans, and they are especially friendly to our nominees. President Cleveland s especially strong because of the confidence irt him as an executive officer." According to good republican authority namely, that of Mr. James P. Foster president of the Republican League of the United States the election of Harrison hangs upon a very slender thread. Hav ing failed.apparently.in his famous attempt to "fry the fat" out of the manufacturers who profit by the tariff, he has come down to dollar subscriptions, in behalf of which he has Issued an almost hysterical appeal to the various republican leagues. "To successfully carry on a war against the free trade democracy it Is necessary for the League to raise a large sum of money , and to do it speeddy,"he says. He offers other Inducements, also, besides the promised yictory of Harrison, for every subscriber is to get "an elegant souvenir which will be worth the money he has given,"and every Club which collects $200 will receive an "elegant silk banner, with pole, cords, etc., an elegant affuir, which any club may be proud to possess." Little Mr. Foster try ing to stem the rising tide in favor of Gra ver Cleveland and tariff reform with his "elegant" souvenirs and banners is a spec tacle fit to excite the laughter of gods and men. As the President says, this is no crusade of free trade. No one not a lunatic desires the establishment of free trade In the United States. It would he as absurd in one direction as the theory of an absolute ly home market for all we manufacture or produce, maintained by a Chinese wall Of protection, is on tke other. It is as true now as it has been, that our industries re quire protection against certain forms of foreign competition, and that the best way to raise a revenue for national expenses, aside from the taxes on luxuries and vici ous Indulgences like whisky and tobacco, is from a tax on import. We would like to have some of our high protectionist friends inform us why it is that if protection Is such a good thing for the working men, why it is that there are 60 many immigrants Cuming into this country from highly protected Italy and Germany, and so few from free trade England. This is something the American laborer can't 'catch " onto. Allen G. Thurman has reiterated and enforced the principle tb.it the tariff is a tax. Grover Cleveland asserts without fear of contradiction that unnecessary tax ation is uniust taxation. Ihe two prcm ises lead straight to the logical deduction that an unnecessary tariff is unjust taxation. and the syllogism is completed. Congress is investigating the jute trust, and a resolution has been introduced by Mr Hooker, authorizing the President to sus pend the collection of cuty on imported cot ton bagging until the trust is "bursled." There are mine bills before the house on the subject of trusts. If the inability of our manufacturer t compete with foreigners is due to our wag es, why does he want wages made higher by a protective tariff? Barney Frost, a broker on the Pittsburg, Pa., Oil and Stock Exchange, offers to bet $100,000 that Cleveland will be elected, That James G. Blaine h the hope of the Republican party and the center of attrac tion is evidenced by the almost total Ignor ing of Harrison, and should Harrison be elected, Blaine would be the President. It is said that Mr. Blaine raised a campaign purse of $1,000,000 from among the trusts, railways and other corporations, and that Is why Blaine made his defense of the trusts when he said a trust was private af fair and that President Cleveland or no one else had the right to Interfere.
