It is f.iir to assume that all the readers
! the Democrat know,that, with this pa
per, it i6 a matter of far leos importance
who shall be tlie candidate of the demo
cratic party for president, than the select
ion of the issues upon which the canvass
shall be made. If the party should hesi
tate on the great vital issue of opposition
to protectionism, It would be a matter of
no concern who should be the candidate
he would he defeated. The great mass of
the people admiie common honesty and
party Integrity. These Willi common fi
delity require that the party should be
steadfast in its well known views on this
question. The party is stronger today than
at any time since the war. Its recupera
tion of strength since its defeat in iSSS has
.been renarkakle, The common observer
knows that the seciet of this wonderful
accumulation of strength Is attributable to
theunswerving devotion of the democratic
press of this country to the great vital
question of tariff reduction. In the face
of defcPt in iSSS, the democratic papers of
the country with the zeal and purpose of
pnseltHh. men, raised aloft the banner of
tariff reduction, and has kept it In the
breeze ever since. In selecting a car.di
date, only i few rcqv'sis ar necessary.
Is he a demociat? I he honesl? Is he
competent? Is he a tariff for revenue
only man? Is he the strongest man? The
man that fills the bill as above should be
nominated. Is it Hill? then nominate
him. Is it Cleveland? then nominate him.
Is it Gorman? Palmer? Boles? Pattison?
Russell.9 then nominate the one who
ant wers to alt these requisites best. The
Democrat will support the one jus', as
cheerfully as the other if he tills up the
measure of the above requirements.

The New York Prim, referring to a
statement mode in the London Tim:4 to
the effect that there was a less amount of
tin exported from England to the United
States in November 1S91, than in Nov
ember 1S90, s.iys:
It is a singular fact that among the three
great items u-hich the Tunes cites as in
stances of England's decrease in export
is included tin plate, which it has been as
serted in every democratic and mugwump
free trade paper in the United States for
months, and is still asserted in their col
ums, is not and cannot be manufactured in
this country. As "the proof of the pud
ding lies in the eating," so the proof of
pny trade proble n lies in the selling and
buying. The Pcess has demonstrated
time and again that tin plate is being man
ufactured commercially in the United
' fl'.ates by a large number of firms, and that
many other firms are entering into the
business, but it welcomes the proof from
that an-ient free trade organ, the Londor,
Times, that the United States is buying
from Great Iiritian onlv one hah' '.lie
quant tv of tin plates per month that I: dla
before the McKinley law went Into oper
ation, as the best proof that we are keep
ing our home market fortin plate .'or home
manufacturer
n same issue of the Pres.-, under the
lieadof "Tariff Pictures'' appears the state
ment that ''in 1S31 the United States pro
duced 123,301 pounds of tin." This is equal
to 55 tons of tin. Thi; is less than ore ::
lo every million of inhabitants in the Un
ited State. This ;-o iuc'.ion o! tin, ac -cording
to such high protection aulii jrity
as the 'est, equ.i!s.t!f an.l " h-i'j to-isf.-t
month. Does any one for a mcvrient sup
pose that the placing of 4,'i tons oi Amer
ican manufactured tin on tlu market
would make any appreciable difference in
the amount of importations? 1 he real
reson w hy importations are less Is because,
that, after the McKinley duty had passed
and before It went into effect, importers
tripled their orders in order to get in a

The proposed gerrymander of the
pro.'stotml district? in Ohio is tt daisy.
T.:
Pluiidtahr of that shite says:
A map of the state containing the dis
tricts marked out according to the Carpen
ter plan is a sjiectacle that would make the
most SKillful gerrymunderers of other states
green with envy. There is not a district
in it that meets the conditions of compact
ness and symmetry which some republicans
professed to desire. The greater number of
the districts twist and wiggle as if each
part was tryinc its' hard.'- to g.t away
from the rest, because ashamed of its com
pany. Some of the districts are flagrant
evasions of the requirements of United
States law that each district shall ho com
posed of contiguous territory. Tit." third
district is made up of part of Hamilton and
the counties of Preble. Ilutler. Warren.
Greene and Fayette. Marking out that
district on the map it will he f.Mindthat the
last twocountie? are connected with tiie
others by a narrow- belt at the corner of
Warren and Green. The fourth district is
Montgomery. Clarke and Madis'.n. There
is ju-t room enough to drive n load of hay
over the ligature connecting' the Montgom
ery end of the district with the "contiguous
territory" of the remainder of the district.
In the twelfth district Lawrence county can
hold communication by a narrnv; passage
way will. Jackson and through it withl'ike.
Vinton. Kosa and Pickaway.
This gerrymander will give the 4'AUWO
democrats in that state 4 liioniVrs of con
gress, and the 420.000 repibltn:n IT meni-bei'.-.
One hundred tli.etsav.d democrats
get one member, and one hundred thousand
republicans get four ihhihImts. If the pres
ident was actuated by lofty motives of pa-trinti-m
and fair dealing whi n he called the
attention of congress lo the "Michigan
scheme, " he will now send a me-sage to
congress calling the attention c f that lwyly
to the outrageous scheme whii'h his breth
ren in Ohio are about to fa-ten ui.on the
people of that staV. H it will he do it?
