THE DAILY DEMOCRAT.
1)11! FIK!
The Democrats in the lower house of con
gress are preparing a plan of obstruction, by
which Ihey hope to checkmate Republicans on
important matters, By such means any ac
tion of the Republican majority can be Hock
ed, and the true primal principle of tin parly
carried out to its fullest extent rule or ruin
Mountaineer,
Oh! fie upon such partisan effronitery. It
is the republicans who are trying to adopt such
rules as will make their rpcaker an autocrat for
the purpose of depriving democrats of the very
rights extended to the republicans by demo
crats when the latter were in the majority. If
the republicans were disposed to act furl ywhy
do they not adopt such rules as will give the
democrats the same rights on the floor as the
democrats gave the republicans in all the con
gressess which they have controlled? Our co
temporaiy may be able to deceive some of its
readers, but intell'gent people will nevu be
deceived by such inexcusable misrepresenta
tion, The republicans have determined to try
the contested election ca:s before they adopt
any rules so that they may have nothing to
hamper them but their own sweet wills. They
openly say that they must increase their slim
majority by turning demociats out and putting
republicans in without any regard whatever to
the merit of the contest. There are 16 con
tests before the lions?, the Contestants all be
ing republicans. There is no merit in more
than two, but eight or nine democrats just as
fairly elected as any member of the house will
be deprived of their seats simply because the
republicans want a large majority. Our co
temporary is egregiously wrong. All the dem
ocrats ask is the same rights ana privileges
ihich they extended to the republicans when
they were in the majority.

I'UOVESTUO MUCH.
Liverpool is importing American iron.
Will some free trader explain this? The
facts are directly against his assertions
Astorian.
On the contrary the facts are against
protection. The facts are these: Iron
ran be mined and manufactured ill the
United States, then shipped to Liverpool
and there sold as cheap or cheaper than
English iron. In the face of these facts,
iron manufacturers, aided and abetted by
protection papers like the Astorian, are
now going boforc McKinley's committee
at Washington and protesting vehemently
against any reduction of the now very
high duty on iron, alleging that if any re
duction in the duty should be made, En
glisi. iron manufactured by the pauper
labor of England would be shipped into
this country and sold so cheap as to drive
our own iron out of the market, Such is
the flimsy, fallacious and self-conlradicto-ry
character of the arguments necessary to
maintain the policy of a high protective
tariff. If it he true as alleged by protect
bnists thru ilie placing of a high duty on
Iron in v.... "ie by bo stimulated the
manufacture . iron as to remit in its
present cheu,.. then there can be no
question that i . ; time has arrived for the
titnoval of the Uuty as such duty Is not and
cm not bo protective when American
iron, after paying freight to Liverpool, can
fce sold there in competition w ith English
Iron, Henry Chy the great lather of the
protective policy said that the object of
protecting manufacturers was that we
might eventually get articles of necessity
made as cheap at home as they conld be
imported and then the protcctio.i should
cms-: If he was right In principle and the
Astorimi right as to facts, the duty on iron
should be removed.
The New York T'irltl is a courageous
bold paper, but It makes a great mistake
when itn.akes a tight of bitter persecution
against lirice, the newly-elected senatcr
from Ohio. During all the time that the
canvass for United Siales Senator was go
in on before the Ohio legis-luturs, that
paper backed up by many republican pa
pers shouted ''bribery," "bribery," but not
a particle of evidence was adduced to show
bribery. This of Its-.'lf shows there was
no grounds whatever for the charge. The
truth is the World has a grievance against

THKYIIAlK DOWN,
The people of West Virginia, at the
presidential election voted for governor
alio. The democratic candidate was e
lected by a small majority, but Goft, the
republican candidate, contested. The leg.
Mature appointed a comnittee to investi
gate the claims and counterclaims of
frauds. The committee has been In sea
slon for ten months,and during all this time
the republican press of the country has
indulged in an intensely heated warfare a
gainst the democratic people ot West
ulula, charging them with all kinds of
frauds. The committee finally made Its
report, a majority, democrats, finding the
democrat elected and a minority, re pub
licans, finding the republican elscted .
However, when the matter came np to be
decided by the legislature the republicans
abandoned their case on the ground that
some of their members of the committer
admitted that there were too many fraud
ulent republican votes to stand contest.
The very least that these republican pa
p:rs could do now, would be to npologlze
for the vicious misrepresentation they
heaped upon the democrats of West Vir
ginia, but it is safe to say they will never
do so, and their readers will remain ig
norant of the fact that their charges were
malicious and untrue.
