We would all be milllonariea if the tariff waa only raised high enongb. Congress is expected to adjourn on the 20ih instant. At least this was the result of a conference on Friday be tween the leaders of the House and the Senate. A distinguished Democratic Sen ator gravely announced in Washington the other day that the President had an abiding faith in his re-election. "1 have talked with him several times upon the subject," said he, "and be entertains no doubt about It. He re gards hitiiself as a man of destiny. He doesn't think he can be beaten." Mayor Hewitt has made public a lotter addressed to the Committee of the Citizen's mass meeting which re cen.Jy renominated him to the may or al ity. He accepts the nomination, but will be glad to withdraw if-TammaLj will consent to allow the Citizen's Com mittee to choose some other candidate than himself or the Tammany nomina tion. Ex-Gov. Porter, of Indianapolis, while- in Nashville, Tenn., recently, informed James Hampton, a leading and respectable citizen of the latter place, that "Benj. Harrison cannot car ry Indiana la the approaching contest." Got. Porter is the gentleman who re peatedly declined the Republican nom ination for Governor of Indiana this Jr. Among the imm'gratlon arrivals on the steamship Spain of the National line at New Yoit, on Wednesday, was party of destitute mn and women, who had been seat over here by the duke of Buckingham, England. Some were sick and none bad money, so the whole party will be returned to his grace on Saturday next with the com pliments of the United States. TnE farmer must sell his wheat, corn, beef, pork, butter and cheese in the open markets of the world. In competi tion with all comers, and he must buy under a totally different rule which taxes nearly everything he consumes for the benefit of Monopoly. The far mers are beginnkiz to understand the game of the spoilers who pillage them in the name of Protection to American Industry, says an exchange. Tns Senate Tariff bill was framed on the same principle that has governed In the preparation of all other monopoly tariff measures. The discrimination Ic favor of the rich and against the poor is continued. The tax on wool and woolens is Increased, and the increase is larger on the cheaper grades of goods than on the Oner and more expensive. thus making the discrimination worse even than it is ocder the existing tariff. In another column will be found the letter of acceptance of Allen G. Tour man, the Old Roman. The tax-payers will fiod that it has the ring of the trne metal and plainly shows that excessive taxation, local, atate or national is a burden on the people, repngnant to oar institutions and should be stopped. The Old Roman always speaks so that lie can be understood and is oppoeed to -all extravagance and corruption in the handling and expenditure o the peo, le'a money. His letter is to the point and well worth reading. Charles MAcVEAGU.son of Wayne MacVeaRb. Attorney-General under Garfield and a grand-son of General Simon Cameron, is a prominent young lawyer, who has always voted the Re pubJiean ticket. Last week Mr. Mac Veagh catled at the Democratic bead quarters in New York, and offered his aeryiees as speaker during the campaign Hestysbe Is "heart and soul for the re-election of Cleveland because be has given the coun'.ry a clean, pure admin Istratioo, and has the courage to favor tariff reform as against high taxes aud monopolistic trusts." I Onk of the most apjUing railroad ac f cidents that ever occurred In P-nnsyl-I varna happened at Mud Run. near Wilkesoarre, on the Lf high , V alley Railroad, on Thursday of last week. The celetr.it Ion of Father Matthew's day attracted thousands of people to Hazelton. Seven long excursion trains eacn drawn by two locomotives left Hazelton at 3 o'clock In the evening, on their return trip under orders to proceed at not less than ten minutes apart, all crowded with people who had been attending the celebration daring the day. The first four trains paesed through without mishap, but tho Cftb which left Hazelton at 5:50 on reaching Mud Run. a small station, without re ceiving any orders to go ahead, pulled out about 500 yards from the station and stopped, first sending out a flagman with signals to wain section six that was following. The signals were either not noticed or disregarded and section six drawn by two engines dashed into the rear of the standing train. The front engine plowed its way for dis tance of twenty feet into the rear car which was filled with men, women and children, nearly all of whom were killed. The rear car was also driven into the next car almost half its length and the slaughter was fearful. The scene di rectly after the accident was one of horror to which no words could do jus tice. Jammed in among ths broken woodwork of the cars were the dead and dying their blood spattered over everything and the groans and shrieks of those still living were heart render ing. Sixty-five were taken out dead or died in a short time afterward and a hundred more are badly hurt. The cause of the accident is being invest! gated and whoever is responsible should be promptly punished. It was caused by no sudden breaking or unforseen ac cident, but by inexcusable careless ness and should be followed by prompt and sure punishment. "Old Hutch," of Chicago, the man wno cornered wneat and sent it up away above Its market prica made thousands of poor people suffer and contribute to bis wealth. It mattered little to him, with a million at his com mand, whether the loaves of bread giew smaller and the price larger, he would not suffer, but to the poor, who must at all times stretch the loaf to its ntmost, it means hunger. But however we may condemn the action of "Old Hutch" and bis method of making money it is only on a par with the monopolists who under a system of tariff protected trusts extort from the people prices for their goods far beyond their value and by liberal and lavish contributions to the managers of the g. o. p. seek to have the high prohibitory tariff continued and their system of robbing perpetu ated. "t)ld nutch" put the tariff on wheat and robbed the people by his own ingenuity aided by his wealth, while the beneficiaries of the tariff, with the same object in view, expect the g. o. p. to keep up the tariff or in other words do the cornering. It is the same system of robbing worked under differ ent names. The one In ti e catagory of crime finds his parallel in the highway man while the other would bercore fitly represented by a sneak thief. Or all the "rot" says the JV 3'. World that insults intelligence in the protection campaign of ignorance none is worse than that which represents a trifling reduction in the tarifS as "turn ing our home market over to England." The entire merchant marine of Eng land, with that of all Europe thrown in, could not transport to this country in ten years onetenth of the demands of our home market for one year. One of our great lines of railroad alone carries more tonnage In a year than all England's ships could float. England controls her enormous home market fur manufactured goods better than we do ours, pays the highest wages in Eupope, and sells abroad $1,343,335, 000 worth of products, mostly manufac tured, to our IT52.1S0.00U worth, eight- tenths o? which are agricultural or natural products, the same as half- civilized nations. Our kome market can neither run away nor be supplied from outside. Ic will buy nothing that it Is not profitable to buy. And the wty to increase it is to give our manufacturers raw materi als as cheaply as their competitors buy them. Ax Indianapolis dispatch to the New York World says that the Republican camp in Indiana has been much shaken up by the strained relations between Mr. Blaine, and Mr. Harrison and Gen. Hover, the Republican candidate for Governor. The situation was emph sized on Thursday by the aineular appearance of Mr. Blaine speaking from the rear of General Alger's private car and General Hoyey speaking at the same station from the rear of an ordin ary coach. The correspondent writes "Republicans are disgusted at this out come of a personal spite which cannot be burrted now, and at Mr. Blaine's refusal to meet General Hovey. It waa commented upon as extraordinary that while Mr. Blaine was speaking at Tomltaflon Hall Genera! . Hovey re mained at the New Dennison, scarcely a block away. The conclusion that In diana Democrats reach is that Mr. Blaine is determined to knife the Re publican ticket. He subbed it in New York by his indorsement of trusts. lie came to Indiana againsu the express wishes of Mr. Harrison. He did not dare slab Mr. Harrison ictbe U'ter'a own S'.ate, but by snubbing General Hovey and aidiog in his defeat he might indirectly assist in defratiog the National ticket." Tiie agricultural department esti mates the present crop of wheat at 411, '100.000 bushels in round numbers. The Farmers' Jltrirtc puts the total at 419. 0U0 000.

' TIHJRHAV.S LETTER Accepting the domination and Indorsing Democratic rrlaclple. Columbus, October 14. Following is Judge Thurman's letter of acceptance as given to the press this evening. The first draft of the letter was in the Judge' handwriting, copies showing only a few changes in punctuation from the original. Columbus. Ohio, Oct. 12. 13SS. Hon. Patrick A. Collins and others, committee : Gentleman-: In obedience to cus tom I send you this formal acceptance of my nomination for tbe office of Vice President of tbe United States, made by the National Convention of the Dem ocratic party at St. Louis. When yon did me tbe honor to call upon me at Columbus and officially no tify me of my nomination, I expressed to vou mv sense of obligation to tbe convention, and stated that, althonghl had not sought tbe nomination, 1 did not feel at liberty, under the circum stances, to decline it. I thought then. as I still think, that whatever 1 could pror-erly do to promote the re election of President Cleveland I ought to do. His administration has been marked by such integrity, good sense, manly cour age and exalted patriotism, that a just appreciation of these high qualities seems to call for his re-election. I am strongly Impressed with tbe be lief that his re-election woold power fully tend to strengthen that feeling of fraternity among the American peo ple that is so essential to their welfare, peace and happiness, and to tbe perpet uity of tbe Union and of our free insti tutions. TARIFF AND SURPLUS. I approve the platform of tbe St. Louis Convention and I cannot too stroogly express my dissent riom the heretical teachings of the monopolist that the v elfare of a people can be pro moted oy a system of exborbitant taxa tion far in excess of the wants of the government. Tbe idea that a people can be enrich ed by heavy and unnecessary taxation. that a man's condition can be Improved by taxing him on all he wears, on alt bis wife and children wear, on all bis tools and implements of industry. Is an obvious absurdity. To fi:i the vaults of the Treasury with an idle surplus for wbleh the govern ment has no legitimate use and to there by deprive the people of our currency needed for their business and daily wanta and to create a powerful and dangerous stimulus to extravagance and corruption in tbe expenditures of the government, seems to me to be a policy at variance with every sound principal of government and of political economy. Tbe necessity of reducing taxation to prevent such an accumulation of sur plus revenue and tbe consequent deple tion of tbe circulating medium, is so apparent that no party dares to deny it ; but when we come to consider the modes by which the reduction may be made, we Cod a wide antagonism be tween our party and tbe monopolistic leaders of our political opponents. W e seek to reduce taxes on tbe neces saries of life ; our opponents seek to increase them. We say, give to the masses of tbe people cheap and sood clothing, cheap blankets, cheap tools and cheap lumber. The Republicans, by their platform and their leaders in the Senate, by their proposed bill, say, iucreise the taxes on clothing and blankets and thereby Increase their cost ; maintain a high duty on the tools of the farmer and mechanic, and upon the lumber which they need for tbe construction of their modest dwellings. shops and barns, and thereby prevent their obtaining these necessaries at reasonable prices. EUROPE'S PAUPER LABOR. Can any sensible man doubt as to where he should stand in this contro versy ? Can any well informed man be deceived by tbe false pretense that a system so reasonable and unjust is for the benefit of laboring men? Much is said about competition of American laborers with the pauper labor of Eu rope, but does not every man who looks around him see and know that an im mense majority of the laborers in Amer ica are not engaged in what are called the protected industries? And as to those who are employed in such indus tries, it is not undeniable that the du ties proposed by the Democratic meas ure called the Mills bill, far exceed the difference between American and Eu ropean wages, and that therefore, if it were admitted that our work legmen can b protected ty tarlus against cheaper labor, they would be fully pro tected and more than protected by that bill ? Does not every well-informed man know that the increase in price of home manufactures produced by a high tariff does not go into the pockets of tbe laboring man, bnt only lends to swell tbe profits of others ? It seems to me that If tbe policy ct the Democratic party is plainly present ed all most understand that we seek to make tbe cost of living less and at the same time increase the f Dare or trie laboring man in the benefits of national prosperity and growth. I am. very re spectfully, your obedient servant. ALLEN li. TIIURMAN. Sr. Blaine's Floundering. Orator Blaine bath two tones to his voice. In tbe capitalistic iast be ridi culed tbe outcry against trusts and said tbey were "largely private affairs" with which neither tbe national government nor private citizens have any particular call to interfere. In the mortgaged and struggling West Mr. Blaine. finds It politic to con cede that trusts are, as the "World' has described them, "piivate affairs for public robbery." But be says all the bad trusts are "of Democratic origin." How puerile ! The great leader must indeed have lost his virile grip upon public questions. There may be Democrats in control of trusts (thoueh this is not true of the. Standard Oil, as Mr. Blaine implied), just as there are Democratic beneficia ries of the tariff for bounties. But tbe Democratic policy is not changed for that reason. The party proposes to make war on trusts, just as it proposes to cut down the tariff. It is a Demo cratic Attorney General in this Stale, backed by a Democratic organization, who has brought suit against the Sugsr Trust. whMe the Republican investigat ing Committee has "taken its hands off." The Democratic candidate foi Governor of Michigan may be a salt monopolist, as Blaine charges. Bnt the Democratic bill pats salt on tbe free list. The tariff notoriously pro-rotes trusts by enabling combinations to control this market. This "foster mother of trusts" Mr. Blaine's party proposes to Lkeep In full vigor forever. And his partisan sarcasm on men who are in the trust will not te ac epted as opposition to the trusts themselves. X. 1". World. PfnaaaL Mr. N. H. Frohllehstelu.or Mobile.

It is a matter of little moment to tbe country whether President Cleveland or General Harrison shall be chosen l'rtfci dent in November, so far as tbe charac ter and qualifications of the candidates are involved. UAh are admittedly honest and competent botti have beeu tried in public trust and made credit as b!e records, and either would make a patriotic and faithful President. Which should be elected ? There is one supreme issue involved in tbe con test, and both sides have met it man fully. Grover Cleveland demands tbe reduction cf war taxes upon tbe neces saries of lire and upon the raw materials necessary for industries to a standard that will furnish sufficient revenue for the government economically adminis tered ; and In that rd action he distinct ly demands that the wages of American labor shall be fully protected. Benja min Harrison demands that the present tariff policy of the country shall be sub stantially continued, and that revenue reductions shall be made chiefly on in ternal taxes and sugar, and that raw materials shall not be put upon tbe free list if any portion of our supply is pro duced at home. The issue is simply one or tax reform, and it appeals to eveiy citizen of every section and of every condition. It Is an issue that has been forced upon Con gress by the people ; it was forced upon both parties four years ago and was given pledges by both which are yet un fulfilled, and it has wrang from an unwilling party in tbe Senate after long J i a i m m. sbt : x a i criticism oi tariu agiiauon, a revisea tariff measure to meet the Mills bill passed by the House. The issue of tax reform requires no apology, no hesitation ; no ambiguous expression. It is an issue that calls for ac earnest and aggressive advance of its supporters. It is the cause of the peo ple ; tbe caose of equal taxation ; tbe cause of enlarged industry ; the cause of Industrial proeperity and the foe of monopoly and oppression. Tbe people have groaned under high war taxes for half a generation after they bad ceased to be a necessity, and to day tbey are taxed full fS0.600.000 annually that the government cannot expend. It has now 120.000.000 of tbe people's money in government vaults, withdrawn from the channels of com merce, industry and trade, and ie daily collecting over 1200.000 of unneeded revenue from our overtaxed industries. Such an issne calls for a bold, defiant advance of all who are ready to protest against extortionate taxes on tbe neces saries of life. Our manufacturers are crippled and our American labor ill paid because of tbe extortionate war taxes continued on the raw malerials needed for our pro ducts. We are to day taxing consu mers of woolens, rvMcU eroUacn every man, woman and cliiid iu the countrv. over GO per cent, on their clothinir, arid yet allow English mills and English labor to supply nearly half our market, while our American mills and Ameri can labor languish in idleness, solely be cause we tax wool, chemicals and dye stuffs to an extent that forbids compe tition in our own markets. As a rule, every champion of high war taxes appear before bis audleuces clad in English garments, to demand high taxes for the protection cf our woolen industries. And why are these orators English clad ? Why are not American cloths as good as English manufacture ? Solely because tbe raw materials for good woolen cloths are so highly taxed that no American mill can buy them ; and yet professed labor protectionists mock our workingmen by demanding that they shall t taxed into idleness and denied the right to supply their own markets with the products. of their indnstry. And why should every table be taxed for the salt upon it? And why should every home be taxed for tbe lumber In It? And why should every kitchen and every worklngman'a dinner pail be taxed for the tin in It ? And why should every bed in tbe land be taxed double price or more for its blankets? Aud why should tariff taxes now aver age over 47 cents on every ft .00 of for eign goods consumed, when tbe highest protective tariffs before the war never exceeded 3G cents on the f 1.00 ? These are not protective taxes ; they are ex tortionate and thf y have bred monopoly combines and trusts until banded greed robs every consumer of the nation. With such an issue and such a csnse, there is bur one order to be given along the whole lice before tbe whole people. It is Tax reform, advance lrhila. Timrs. They Give It Up. So far as tbe argument on the issue is concerned the Republicans have aban doned the field to tbe Democrata. They hava changed their tactics altogether and cow rely eoley upon what they can accomplish with tbe lavish and corrupt use of money. Tbe monoply beneficia ries of the birh tariff have contributed largely of the tariff bounties wrung from labor to tbe Republican campaign fund. They have poured their surplus cash into the lap of Boss Qaay and every dollar tbey have contributed was coined out of the sweat and blood of a working man. They use tbe very money the tariff has enabled theme to wring from labor to purchase the success of mono poly candidates who will conticne to aid them in crushing labor. Boss Quay's methods are well under stood in this State. They are utterly Ineffective without tha corrupt expendi ture of money. They are based entire ly on tha idea that voters and election officers and political "workers" are pur chasable. The large sums raised for the use of the boss by tbe Philadelphia monopolists are to be applied in what are called tbe pivotal States New York. Connecticut and Indiana. For tunately th. Democratic National Com mute is folly apprised of Boss Quay's schemes and will do its utmost to check mate nis desperate moves. But it will require a brge outlay to meet the ex penses of a campaign of detection such as is neceseary to unearth and prevent tbe fraud and corruption that are meditated bv the Itpnnhliran managers. Tbe Democratic National committee has no rich monopolies to draw upon and is dependant entirely upon contributions from the rank-and-file of the party. Every Democrat who can spare a doliarsbonld therefore send it to tbe treesurer of tbe Democratic National Committee, Charles J. Canda. New York city. By so doing he will have the satisfaction of knowing that he has contributed bis mite toward the perpetuation of Democratic government and the defeat of tbe most corrupt con spiracy against free arid fair elections ever concocted in this country. We have driven the enemy from tbe field of argument into his entrenched camp whenever he will rally with his cohort of corruptlonlsts and ballot-atuff-rs to make a last desperate effort to stifle trne and honest expressions of the will of the people at the ballot-box. Let os assault him once more and rout him In the very den of In'qnity to which he has withdrawn. arriira Patrtof, "terfsjl .'ara. W. D. Hoyt a Oo Wbolasal and Retail Iro; rlst of Korae.
