E. R. Ikelcr Esq. whose name has
been announced as a candidate for

tho people in relation to his candidacy.
Tho distriot embracing Columbia
and Montour counties, and the dele

his part to canvass both connties.
Petitions have been presented to the

Inoonsistenoy, Where is Thy Blush ?
The republican organs and orators
are busy just now condemning the
aotioni of those they once lauded to
tne skies. .Notably among these are
ex-President Arthur, whoso views on
the subject of tariff reform were pub
listed in the Patriot a few days since,
and General Grant, in whom they pro
fessed to have unlimited faith. In his
message to Congress in 1875 President
Grant used the following strong lan
guage in reference to a reduction of
duties :
"I would mention those articles
which enter into manufactures of all
aorta. All duty paid upon suoh articles
goes directly to the cost of tho article
when manufactured hero and must be
paid for by the consumer. These
duties not only come from the con
sumers at home but act as a protection
to foreign manufacturers in our own
and distant markets."
According to republican orthodoxy
of to-day Grant was a rank freo trader.
as he favored tho removal of the duties
on all raw material. In connection
herewith the attention of the high pro
tection shriekers is called to the ex
pressed views of another shining light
in the party, one who was a prominent
. e . i i it- -
uuiumawt ueiure uiu last vynicago con
venuori. non. William ii. Allison in
a speech delivered in the Forty-second
congress (page 19? of tho Congresswn
al Record of that year) said :
"The tariff of 184C, confessedly and
professedly a tariff for revenue, was.
to far as regards all tho great interests
of the country, as perfeot a tariff as
any that we have ever had. If any
interest was depressed nnder the tariff
of 1846 it was the iron interest. I do
cot beliovo that this interest, as com
pared with other interests, had suf.
ncicnt advantage nnder that tariff;
yet when wo comparo the growth of
tne country irora lb-iu to 1B5U with the
growth of the country from 1850 to
18C0, the latter decade being entirely
under the tariff of 1846, or the amnnd
ed and reducid tariff of 1857, we find
that the increase in our wealth between
1850 and I860 was equivalent to 126
per cent., while it was only 64 per
cont. between 1840 and 1850, fonr
years of which decado wero under the
tariff of 1842, known as a high pro
tective tariff."
Mr. Allison then compares tho tariff
rates ot 1M2, and J 857, and the exist
ing rates, nuJ says :
"Our industries were generally pros
perous In 1860, with tho exception
possibly, of the iron industry. This
was tho statement of Mr, Morrill, of
Vermont, on this tlnor, during tho dis
cushions ot the tarill in 1801,"
"Uan these things pe and overcome
us like a summer's clout without our
special wonder?" Patriot.

Slave Trade vs, Free Trade
A H'OIlKlNflMAN OlYEK HIS VIEWS ON TUB
PRESIDENTIAL QUESTION.
Tho wnrro-workors havo boon studv-
ing tho tariff question and many of
them who have hitherto voted tho Re
publican ticket havo como to tho con
clusion that it is to their best interest
to cast their ballots for Cleveland nnd
Thurman who are tho candidates of
tho null-monopoly party and opposed
to the rnlo of a moneyed aristocracy.
One of them said recently:
"i am uono with tho Uepublioan
party. It was a good party once,
when it mado war upon slavery, but it
has fallen into tho oontrol of men who
deal in human flesh nnd blood to-day
much as tho slave masters did in form
er times. Why, look at them! Tho
men who controlled tho Chicago con
vention are all of them monopolists
whbso palaces aro litornlly built of tho
bones of tho working pcoplo whoso
lives wero worked out to enrioli theso
nabobs. Tho Vandorbllts, Ciiaunoey
Depow, and the hired attorneys of tho
i'aciuo railroad companies managed
that convention to suit themselves.
Tho candidato for -vico president, Mor
ton, is a money shaver whoso riches
wero wrung lrom tho labor of tho
country in interest on tho money tho
laboring men earned. Ho was nomi
nated booauso tho managers of tho
convention expected him to go into
tho vote market and buy tho suffrages
of tho poor liko so much meat in tho
butcher stall. Do you snppobo I could
support such a ticket!
"Yes 1 I sav tho men who now man
age the republican party deal in tho
musolo and brain of the workingmen
as tho slavo-master did of old. They
talk against free trade. Well, no
wonder. They aro in favor of slave
trade. Thov import the most itrno-
rant, degraded and vicious people of
foreign countries and put them to work
in the place of free, intelligent and
woll behaved American workingmen.
They evade the law in bringing these
men hero by shipping them in at porta
where there are no Immigration com
missioners and on tho northern fron
tier, thus imitating tho pirates that
used to bo engaged in the African
slave trade. I put it to yon, onght not
a workinirman to prefer .free trade in
tho necessaries of life to slave trade in
human flesh and blood T
"I havo worked 08 a mill hand under
tho so-called protective tariff for twen
ty years and T have yet to see tho high
wages tbey blow about so much. Not
one in fifty of my fellow workingmon
owns bis dwelling houe and many of
them live in miserablo tenoments for
which thoy pay a ;high rent. They
i lay up nothing, for poor wages,
it-downs of mills, and hieh cost of
living make it impossible. I am ready
to try a dilierent system. 11 can t
make things worso for us and may
make them better.
"I had my eyes open after tho last
election. Our bosses had told ns that
if Cleveland would bo elected their
mills would shut down indefinitely, for
they would certainly bo ruined. 1
voted for Blaine, but Cleveland was
elected and the mill has been running
lust about as reg ilarly as it did before.
Now they tell us again that if Cleve
land is re-elected the mill is to lie
closed. That cook wont fight any'
more. As Cleveland haa dono us no
barm I want to give him a chanoe to
carry out his policy and see if it will
not do us some good."

FRIENDS AND PHYSICIAN STII.I, IN
DANGER.
Washington, July 10. Mr. Randall
is dangerously ill at his residence on
O Btreet, in this city, suffering with
what his physician fears will result in
inflammation of the bowels. He was
first attacked last evening, the pre
monitory symptoms appearing in grip
ing pains in the abdomen, followed
later by profuse hemorrhage of the
bowels. At noon yesterday Mr. Ran
dall was apparently in excellent health.
In the heated term he wore undercloth
ing nsually worn by him in winter and
wore a heavy silk bat. He has tho ex
travagant fondness of a boy for ico
cream, and yesterday afternoon he in
vited Mr. sowden, ot Pennsylvania, to
join him in partaking of his favorite
disb. They went to a restaurant and
Mr. Randall at e about a pint, mixing
red raspberries in it. At dinner Mr.
Kandall bad but little appetite and
later in the evening complained of
griping pains in the abdomen. lie be
came worse and after the arrival of a
physician a profuse hemorrhage of the
bowels set in. Durinir the nicht he
slept but little and at daybreak he did
not appear to have mended perceptibly.
During this forenoon bis condition
seemed to justify very grave apprehen-
Biuiin, oovcrni uiui-3 uunng mo (lay 11
was rumored in tho corridors of the
Capitol, a few blocks away, that Mr.
Randall might die at any moment.
Shortly before noon the physician
who has always attended Mr. Randall
and his family in Philadelphia was
teiegrapnea to come on. no is expect
ed to arrive here lato to tiisht.
Mr. Randall has suffered for some
with fistula, and not lone auo an
operation was performed which kept
mm in uuu ior some ume.

there is scaled up in tho littlu inxtru-
ment a song by the diva, Adeline

COLUMBIAN kND DEMOCRAT.
NOTES AND HEWB
Cleveland Will be Be-elooted
From tho Klmlra Oarcttp, Hill's Organ.
1'rosMcnl Cleveland will bo re-elect-
od. Ho is doing his duty manfully.
Tho country is satfafhd.
From the Ullca Observer. Do to.
The Observer is moro than satisfied
with tho nomination of Benjamin Har
rison. Compared with Illaltio ho is
weak hopelessly weak. In Now
York tho nomination will spur tho
Democracy on to an effort which will
result in tho burial of modem Repub
licanism under a tremendous advorso
majority.
Merely a Second Hayes-
From the Doston cilobo.
Harrison is another Hayes. Liko
Hayes ho is of old Whig anoostry and
antcoedontsi liko Hayes no has a mod
est record of military servico, liko
Hayes ho lias cut a brief and inconsid
erable figure in tho politics of his
State: liko Haves ho brushes his hair
woll back from a high and bulging
forehead, wears full beard, dresses us
ually in black or in sombre shades and
presents altogether that appoaranco
and flavor of respectablo mediocrity
which is a typical product of Westorn
Republicanism.
Likely to Make California Dcmooratio.
From tho Washington Post. Ind.
Althonerh California led tho break to
Hnrrison In tho convention yesterday
her aotion was the result of oauses oth
er than a belief that ho is strong in
California. Tho fact is tho California
delegates went to Chicago to nomiuato
Blaine. Failing in that they had no
second oboico, but went to Harrison
becauso that veemod to be tho natural
tendenoy of tho Blaine men. Mr.
Harrison's record of opposition in tho
Sonato to anti-Chincso legislation is the
ono weak place in hit candidaoy. It
will be very likely to make California
sure for the Democratio ticket.
From the Chicago Neva, Ind.
Bv the nomination of Beniamin Har
rison the Republican party has happily
eliminated tho personality of Blaine
from tho comincr campaign. Upon
this ono result not only tho party but
Blaine himsolt and tho entire country
is to be meat heartily congratulated.
In regard to Harrison's availability, so
far as bis personality and record wjii
oount in the campaign, he may bo said
to bo a negative quantity. His nomi
nation will not evoko any of that ori
ginal enthusiasm that would havo fol
lowed the nomination of such a candi
date as Judgo Gresham, for whom, in
tne west at least, mere was a genuin
popular demand. Mr. Harrison is, as
Mr. Ingalls would say, not a leader.
He is possibly a "somebody," liko
Hayes in 1876. Ho is not one of the
men toward whom one feels an instinc
tive attraction.
Not a Man of the People.
From the LoutavUle Anielger, Ind.
Cleveland and Harrison aro now bo-
fore the American people. Cleveland
during his administration proved to be
a competent, consoientiouB official. By
his statomaol ke, conservative adminis
tration he has gained the unbounded
confidence of the American iei-
plc, and will undoubtedly down Harrison-next
November. Harrison has
many bitter enem-es among Indiana
Kepublicans, and the friends of tores
ham are not likely to forget the under
hand manipulation at Chicago. Har
rison is a man of the people in the bet
ter sense, and his capacities as a
statesman aro of inferior rank.
As Understood m New Hampshire-
From the Manchester Union.
The news of the nomination of Ben
jamin Harrison, of Indiana, as the Re
publican candidato for i'resideut ot
tho United States will probably bo re
ceived by tho rank and filo of the party
with a sense ot relief that the conven
tion did no worse, but such satisfac
tion as there may bo in that philosopbl
cal estimate to the result must bo tem
pered by the conviction that the fable
of the mountain and the mouse has
been told again. He enters the field
labeled as the man best calculated to
carry an important doubtful State.
That 19 his singlo qualification over
and above the qualifications possessed
by scores of men. in cis party, and It
remains to be seen whether ho can
make even that limited expectation
good against tho party of progress and
the splendid record of the man of the
people, Grover Cleveland.
The BepubllcansUan Expect Nothing From
xue uormau Americans-
From the Chicago Staats Zeltung.
His career in tho Senate was not
very prominent. Ho showed moral
courage by his opposition to Chinese
laws. His position in this respeot
will probably oost him tho four
teen electorial votes of tho Pacific
States. In Indiana ho has a o-r-tain
strength, which is, however,
more on his ability ns a political 'b W
than on his personal popularity. Ho
has no magnetism at nil. The Ger
mans of Indians, Republicans as well
as Democrats, do not care for him, be
cause under his influence tho Republi
can party of Indiana declared itself for
Htilumtting a constitutional amend
ments in favor of prohibition to tho
voto of the people. The Republican
candidate for Vice l'resident, Levi P.
Morton, is tho man of his money bag,
As a statesman, compared with Thur
man, Morton is nothing. But tho con
vention hoped by him to make a good
impression on the State of Now York,
and that Morton would reach deep in
to his purso to fill the oampaign fund
Tho National Convention beforo it ad
journed adopted a resolution offorod by
.Maine, in wlitan tho party was pledc
ed to support all wise, measures for
the furtherance of temperance The
Republican party now stands as a torn-
peranco party, even if it has not the
courage to pronounce itself openly for
proniiiuinn. it may by this netanous
trick bung back a tew of the rrohibi
tionisU who havo fallen off, but how
many German Republicans will after
this slay true to the party!

Scranton, July 5. The Laokawan
na Valley was visited this afternoon by
tho most furious storm overy knowii
nere. i wo men and two norsea were
killed by lightning in Scranton and
great damage was dono thoroughout
tne vauey. xue rain fell in torrents,
while the lightning tlathea were sharp,
vivid and almost Inoewant. The
streets wore flooded with water, nnd in
unpaved portions deep gullies wero
worn, csiM'cially on tho hlllsideo, tho
streets in Hydo Park and Providence
faring tho worst. Tho sowers wore
ttnabto to carry off tho heavy flow of
water, which crowded over tho pave
raeuls, filling tho streets in tho central
part of the oitv from ourb to curb, and
tho flood forcod its way into numerous
cellars, doing damage to incrchandiso
bsyond estimate
Tho Lackawanna River, Roaring
itronK ana Meadow nrook, which yes
terday hardly had enough current to
enrry away tho city sawerage, wore
turned into foaming torrents, exceed
ing tho highest floods of tho winter
senson, washing and overflowing their
banks in the lower part of tho city and
driving people from their homes and
into the uppor stories for safety.
At Jcrmyiivillo and Barbertown
hailstones larger than wnlnuls fell.
Tho fruit trees woro stripped of their
limbs and leovos mid all growing gar
dens and crops wore totally destroyed.
Trees were uprooted and. struck by
lightning alt through tho region, and
for on hour tho storm hold full sway.
Tho forco of tho lightning flashes was
mos. severe in the oity, tho blinking
streaks driving people in terror from
windows and doors.
Two men woro killed in this oity.
Ono of thee, William Armstrong, a
railroad brakeman was on top of a train
of cars that was being backed into tho
oro dumps at tho steel mill. The flash
that prostrated him tore his body from
bead to foot, and, parsing from tho car,
tore a large hole in the trestling, lettiug
a loaded car drop partly through.
The other violim was Bartley Reagan,
who was employed on street repairs in
Ward Street. The flash that killod
him also killed both the horses ho waa
driving.
Tho foundation walls under many
houses wero undermined and it is fear
ed that somo of them will fall.
Among them is tho new business block
of Samuel Arnold on Pennsylvania
Avenuo. Tho flood of water that pour
ed into Borne of the mine openings
was Bueh as to drivo tho miners out,
tho pumps not being able to carry the
water out as it ran in. Utiring the
period of tho storm ooustcrnation reign

as it produoed bos not been surpassed
by somo of tho worst mine disasters in
this region.
WASHINGTON LETTER-
From our Regular Correspondent.
Washington, July 9th. 1888.
Representative Mills, of Texas, is
the hapoicst man in the House, and he
has good right to bo. He has main
tained from the timo his tariff bill was
first presented to the House, that it
would pass: ho was laughed at by
some, sympathized with by some, and
belewed by none. And it is now con
ceded by all, friond and foe alike, that
the bill will bo passed by the House in
a short timo. He has Been his bill en
dorsed by most of tho State conven
tions ana by the great national conven
tion of bis parly. Is not all this
enough to make a man happy!
The l'resident has vetoed another
batch of privato pension bills, and ac
companying one of the votoos was a
letter of some length, which must have
roucht blushes of shame to the face
of more than ono member of tho Houso
and Sonato pension committees. He
fully explained bis position in regard
to this olass of legislation, and proved
conclusively to tho mind of any unpre
judiced reader, that he is not unfriend
y to the soldier or his widow. The
great number of vetoes havo been cau
sed by the careless manner in which
bills have been passed by Congress.
The Kepnblioans aro not dwelling
in unity. Uepresentatives Uannon of
Illinois, and Kelly, sometimes called
"Pig iron," of Pennsylvania, havo been
at daggers' points, and over what!
Tho tariff. Cannon believes in freo
sugar, and a bounty for the American
manufacturer: Kolloy beliovea in a
hich protective tariff, and wants to
know why such an idea is not just as
applicable to tne sugar planter of Lou
isiana as to tho Eastern manufacturer.
Kelley wanted to road Cannon out of
the Republican party for daring to
havo an idea outside of protection.
The democrats of tho House, who ore,
with half a dozen exceptions, complete
ly united in favo." of revenuo reform,
enjoyed tho wordy duel between tbo
Republioars.
The House is working very hard to
finish up the business before it; tho
Senate is taking things in its usual leis
urely way. .Last week it was in ses
sion only two days.
Now that the Kepublicans of the Se
nate are confronted with the necessity
of getting up a tariff bill whioh shall
represent tho opinions of the republi
can parly, in order to offer it as a sub
stitute for the Mills bill when that
measure gets to tho Senate, they are
in a quandary as to what to do: overy
Senator has a different idea as to what
is best. They are realizing the old ad
age that "it is easier to criticise than
to create."
Tho report that Postmaster General
Dickinson had written a letter protest
intr against tho railway mail employes
lining placed under tho provisions of
tho civil servico law, was entirely
without foundation.
Mr. Cloveland spent the Fourth in
office, at tho vVhito House, hard at
work over a lot of bills. In tho even
ing ho drove out to Oak Viow.
The Houso has passed the Holman
substitute for the Sonato railroad land
forfeiture bill. Tho Sonato bill for
feited 5,C27,430 acres. Mr- Holman's
substitnto forfeiU 54,323,090 acres.
A slight differonoo.
Among the thnunohds of democrats
who attended the Baltiraoro conven
tion of demoorotio clubs nnd nfter-
wards camo through Washington, was
Hon, John Winans, Mayor of James
villo. Wisconsin, and who is under
stood to bo tho democratio nominee
for Governor of that State this year,
In roplv to tho questions as to tho pro
spoat of iVmocratio success in Wiscon-
sin, Mr. Winans said: "Wo shall make
a very strong effort to carry tho Stato
this tall tor uievciand, Thurman. and
tariff reform. Tho effort is already
a r ., . .
wmerway. uur democratic olubs are
strongly organizod and numerous.
We shall push thom in overy dirco

sinoo tho Tildon and Hendricks camp

growing weaker thoro for year?, nnd
their present attitude on the tariff is
tho last straw. Our peoplo, irrespec
tive of party, oro tired of being mor
cilessly taxed for tho benefit of a pri
vileged olass of manufacturers.
John Sherman is still growling
about tho alleged purchaso by Alger
of fifty of the formor's Southorn delo
gates to the Chloagp convention. It
will probably take Sherman a long
while to recover from tho loss of his
money and expectations. If Alger

Wo condemn tho proposition of the
Democratio party to plaoe wool on the

The Republican party would offect

revenue by repealing the taxes on to
bacco, which aro an annoyanco aud
burden to agr culture, aud the tax
upon spirits used in the arts Ond for
mechanical purposes, ind by such re
vision tf tho tariff laws as will tend to
check imports of such articles as are
produced by our people, the iiroduo-
tion of which gives employment to our
moor, ana release trom import duties

(except luxuries) tho like of which can
not be 'produced nt home. If there

From Mr. Mill's Tammany Speech.
What thewoikinermen of this ooun
try want is plenty of work at higher
wanes, vernier can do obtained un-
less we oan manuf i tire cheaply for

rroteoiion sucu as wo havo now

benefits tho capitalist who, by means
of protection, has a monopoly of somo
manufacture, fie grows rich, but bis
workingmon do not, for ho employs
buciu ui uiu luwvub pussiuio prices.
Toepouoyof tho now tariff is to
hold up our manufactures,' not to des

and givo them every faoility to grow.
Remember, the more consumers the

Old Republicans For Cleveland.
FOUR, ORANU RAPIDS OENTI.EMEN WHO
CANNOT STAND THE H12PUUUCAN
PLATFORM. 1
Grand Rapiih, Mich., July 7. Looal
political circles are discussing tho open
declarations of Dr. C. S. Haseltine,
Wm. Widdicomb, G. M. Lemon and
Joseph Martin, that they will.voto for
Uleveland. lhey hao been stanch
Republicans, nnd have stood hiah in
sooial and political circles. Widdi
comb was tho Kepublican candidate
for Mayor six years auo. Thoy say
they cannot stand the Republican plst-
lorm, and have great adtmratiou for
l'resident Cleveland s busuiet-s admin
istration.
Tho announcement made by these
geutlomen has greatly agitated tho
Republican Politicians. Tho free
whi key plank in tho Chicago platform
has given cold shivers to many a tem
peranoo Republican who has stuck to
his party becauso lie thought moro
pract!cal temperance legislation t,ould
oe obtained Irom it than lrom the
smaller Prohibition party. Any con
siderabledefeotion of such Republican,
either to the Prohibitionists of the Do-
mocrats, would nuko tho State Demo
cratic Even Republican managers
do not claim it by more thm 5.000.
Suoh a defection, if ouco Btarted,
would probably bo widespread.
