Daily Dctiiocriitt The New York World says : "Subway Commissioner Jacob Hess was at the I loffman I louse at to o'clock yeater day morning looking for Myron Dangs, who, It was alleged, had offered to bet $ lo, ooo to $14,000 on Cleveland's election, but when Mr. Bangs came in he declared that Mr. Hess had "made fun of him" and de clined to bet. Then Mr. I less offered to make it $16,003 to $20,000, and a book keeper 6ent him word that he would take that bet last night. Commissioner Hess was at the hotel again last night waiting for the bookmaker. He was afraid that he wouldn't come. "Don't let that trouble you," said Con . tractor Richard Cunningham. "If he doesn't take it, I will." Mr. Hess said he would see Mr. Cunning ham later. Mr. Cunningham also offered to bet $500 even that Cleveland would car ry every Northern State he did in lSS-(,but found no takers. Later in the evening Mr. Cunningham bet Commissioner Hess $2, 000 to $1,600 on Cleveland, and the papers were drawn up. Mr. Cunningham also offered to bet $10,000 to $7,ooo,or any part of it, on Hill's election,but the offer was not accepted. Mr. Cunningham is a candidate for Mayor. E. B. 1'alcott and Stephen French, of the Stock Exchange, made a $500 wager, at evens, on the Presidential result." The republican county convention held at Austin, Texas, a few days ago, voted down a resolution introduced by one of the white delegates recommending that the State Convent'on put. no straight republi can ticket in the field, because, in the Inn guage of the resolution, "it U a well-known fact in this state that republicans in a great many counties have been terrorized, pro scribed, socially and otherwise ; hundreds have been murdered, others have been re quired to leave their homes and seek homes in other states : thousands of voters have been intimidated and through fear have emained away from the polls, and thereby filed to exercise the right of suffrage as guaranteed to them by the constitution. '' The convention was composed largely of colored men and it voted the resolution down by a vote of 63 to 16. One of the negroes s.id he would not vote for what he knew to be a lie and was loudly applauded Mr. James Metns, the great shoe man ufacturer, whose establishment has never known a strike of any description, has is sued a neat pamphlet for the instruction of his employes, In which, at the request of many of them, he explains why a prohibi tive tariff does not protect the working men. In conclusion he says : "Our fight is before us ; the plan of ouf campaign Is all laid. We shall elect tariff reform Con grcssmen,and we shall show the feeling of the voters of the whole country by electing a tariff reform president in aright made on the tariff reform issue. We shall win, be cause the years which have passed since the last election have Increased our strength The great uprising has begun, and we who are earnest in the right need fear no fail ure." That was a home thrust of Mr. Mills in his Brooklyn speech In which he enumer ated the taxes removed from the rich bv the republicans and mentioned the burdens left uon the poor. The taxes abolished by these professed guardians of workingmcn included those on incomes, on railroads, on banks,on tele grapli and express companies, on manufac tures (3 per cent only) and on articles of import not produced in this country chiefly luxuries. These were all taxes on the rich. And the republicans repealed them. More than 75 per cent of the existing tariff taxes are collected upon articles of universal neces sity. The poor pay the ame rate as the rich a most unj ust and oppressive arrange ment. And these taxes the republican platform promises to retain,even if whisky and tobac-.o must be freed to do It. Let the people think about it. It is the opinion of the Chicago Herald (Ind.) that Gen. Harrison made a fatal ad mission in his speech last Saturday to the Irish-Americans who visited at Indianapo lis. Says the Herald: He allowed it to appear that although the lot of woman had been made softer and easier under the beneficent influence of the protective system she was still burdened with the cares of motherhood. He should have insisted that protection diminishes the pains of maternity, gets up in the night to warm baby's catnip tea and walks the floor with baby when it cries. Nearly all the faculty at Wcsleyan Uni versity at Middlctown, Connecticut, will this year vote for the democratic nominee for President and Vicc-l'rcsidcnt. Thlsan-liouncc.-.icnt is made upon the best of au thority, but as your correspondent has not had an opportunity of talking with the faculty names arc not mentioned. The gentjemen In question have heretofore act ed and voted with the republicans. 1 A 1M0TURK. "The wages of the workins people re main about the same ; in fact, they are so, low that they could not well be much low er. As it it, the laboring population of the empire have a constant battle to wage against want and misery. Hardly any man of family Is able to earn enough to support his family in the simplest manner without being aided by Ids wife in some way.They eat the plainest food and dwell in forbid-ding-lookine, overcrowded tenements, and oftentimes a whole family dwell together In one room. Meat in some parts of the empire is a luxury obtained but once or twice a ween. .Long hours of labor.scanty fare, and poor compensation is the rule among them. Black bread and potatoes make up the chief diet of many of them. They cannot live with any decency on the wages they get." Any one in the habit of reading republi- n newspapers would asseverate on a stack of Books divine that the above Is de scriptlve of the condition of labor people in England. But such is not the case. On the contrary it describes the condition of labor people in Germany where "protec tion is the established policy of the gov ernment. It is an extract from an officer of government showing the condition of labor. Speaker Carlise condensed into one sen tence the unanswerable argument for an extended free list: "With cheaper raw materials the cost of production will be diminshed, the manufacturer will have a wider market for his products, the laborer will have more constant employment and the consumer will obtrin his supplies at lower prices." To abolish these taxes is also to surely cut down the surplus. Senator Sherman in a recent interview said that the tariff should be 'revised and reduced, that he is opposed to taking the tax off of whisky and that the bloody shirt is a thing of the past. If Senator Sherman continues on his honesty policy the first thing he Knows he w ill find himself in the Democratic party. WHEKE TO GO. All Important Question.
