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. Harrison, a
figure head; Blaine, the real candldate.and
Morton Importing contract labor! What
kind of a racket are the Republicans play
ing, anyway?
WllKltB TO UO.
An Important Question.
Some will say to the grand bid ocean at
Newport! some to breezy Ilwaco j some
to the health giving Springs at Sodaville
and Waterloo, and some to wheretbe deer
grazintbo mountians ; but tbe general
verdict will be, when jou are after dry
goods, boots, shoes, clothing, furnishing
goods etc., to goto A. B. Moll wain's, Al
any, nr. After tbe most bountiful har
vest in the history of Oregon tbe question
is a very important one. Big crops with
tow prices and good goods will make
things flourish. If you would realize this
combination call on Mr. Mcllwaln and

fine, and as fall is now here, deserves your
consideration. Superior goods at low
prices is tbe program. His stock of flan
nels is a good one and now is toe time to
buy. In :adies' shoes he can surprise yoa
at tbeir cheapness considering the qnality
o;' tbe artiole. You will not lose anything
by examining his boot and shoe stock
generally. Mr. Mellwaln's clothing and
furnishing goods department is well stock
ed with a good assortment of goods which
he Is selling at very low prices.
Mr. Mcllwain's goods generally have
been bought under tbe market, and hence
nan be sold at prices that defy competition.
I-armors, laboring men, mechanics, men,
women and children should inspect bis
laren assortment of goods, as it will be
business fur them to do so. A dollar saved
is a dollar earned as much now as ever.

'nesnylng by giving you ttie prices and

Large crops and high prices for wheat
in order to make prosperous times should
be followed by close buying in the best
