Tue advocates of a bigh tariff bave an infallible remedy for the constantly increasing surplus in the abolition of the tax on whiskey and tobacco. This tax it is true was a war measure, but it is one way of raising revenue for the government that inflicts no burden on these not addicted to the use of those articles. The man who does not want to pay interval revenue taxes on whiskey and tobacco can quit the use of them. On the necessaries of life, the lumber for his house, the coal he burns for heat, the clothing he wears, and other articlesdutiable be pays indirectly a tax which he can- not avoid and which is necessarily burdensome. On these articles it is that the protectionist wants to raise revenue. lh Rensomme for the DEMOURAT at 4.008 year, : Editor, | i be settled on | { voted with the Republicans [ two in Democratic party is now 1 i 1: i relieved of { of a | Mr. Randall, who was absent by | reason of iline $8, was paired with Hogg, of West Virginia; Sowden as did | of New York's Democrats. | Foran, of Obio, refrained from vot- ling, and Fitch, Republican of New $1.50] | Minnesota, voted for the York, and Nelson, Republican of bill, The squarely tax manly his on record fortariff reform and The bold | stand of the President | reduction, and in mes- | sage has given new life to his party | {and while the not be JCCaAuse people may their burdens 1} bli Senate, does 1 and his be ; Repu an sibi] the on ty for failure Presid nate with The ent may CXPed up the fillibustering struction policy of t } may cnt a pres formulated as a Mi iis bill as best onsideratio { Democratic BF Senate Ww SCE | Mills bill as { has | most harmony | Republican Senators ure. i f will [ere Ing {the « | are | every where sees that he i : i tected DEMOCRATIC STATE TICKET. { shut | industrial {in the United States i g j cates of tariff monopoly fear. | know that the enlig { voter on that q Avorn of it the ute some of HAST expressed | that bill, and there is Among the ! on any meas- advo- They enment of the Discussion is what the ht estion means a Joss eir ranks. be never to th ated As [be Mung discussed and agit befo has be ] larn : Dus ial centres « ne:s men in the hnane id the lac K Of wor Just ntry ar the burdens of an un taxati men farmer awakening laboring their interests while the unpro The discussi ax req f the ques be talked in every tion of juction cannot off.

Wuen you read an account of some Democrat going over to Har. rison you can set him- down as belonging either to some tariff protected industry, a disappointed office.secker or an old Republican of whose democracy there was al. ways doubts. Monopolists will al ways be found on the side of a high tariff. There is no place on the |OUR BROADCLOTHINDUSTRY. Mr. H. N.

In this discussion while every man cannot be a participant he can sit as a juror and help de- cide the case. The Democratic par- ty asks but a fair hearing of its side of the question. It asks the voter to read both sides, to listen to ar gument and reject the well worn scares of the past When a man proclaims that the Democrats are free traders it asks that the voter determine that matter for himself after studying the President's mes- sage, the Democratic platform and the speeches of leading men on the Democratic side. Read and think for yourselves. If you are a carpenter, a mason, a brick layer, a shoemaker a tailor, a day laborer or engaged in any of the thousand occupations not included in the list of protect. ed industries ask what benefit high taxes are to you. If you are in- cluded in the protected industries ask yourself why the necessaries of life should cost you 47 per cent more than they naturally would were it not for high taxes. Ask yourself whether a reduction of taxes from 4 to 4o per cent is free trade?

The Demo crats are vow dealing with the Re- publicans, and with the program of policy by which the Republicans propose to administer to this Gov- ernment, But there is an essestial differ. ence between the Republican and Prohibition platforms on the ques- tion of repealing the tax on whisky. The Republicans declared at Chica. go that they “favor the entire re, peal of internal taxes rather than the surrender of any part of our protective system.” As General Clinton B. Fisk, the Prohibition candidate for the Presidency, terse ly put the case: “The Republicans want free whisky as an excuse for keeping up the taxes on clothing and food." In their dismay over the effect produced by theirdeclara. tion in favor of free whisky the Republican leaders are now trying 10 crawl upon the rear end of the Prohibition platform. Parties do not, any more than in- dividuals, make their descent at a single bound. The Republican party was a long time in reaching its free whisky platform. When Judge Kelley first proclaimed the policy of repealing the internal revenue system and made touching appeals in behalf of the “camphor bottle of the wife and mother,” few of his political associates gave him any e The New England Republicans held up their in Nomar mt the proposition Lin favir of making whisky i land Although there is an issue now | at also demands | |o'ck ‘4 k, cheap abundant by removing government tax upon it, Even in his Pars Mr. B reflect d large portion laring that me laine doub sere * lessly believed th t he he sentiments of of h chespen th 4a very Lo to in det of parity price whi-Ky 13 increase it that the repeal of the t “would destroy high the States” been a Pp IW ance reform.” Five vole both Hou Year $y cond in { 1d re I i OCI :jrom row until fle Fol i 23 cents J 11 jor iclerate delegates stated time will mee nmven the urt house delle August 14, to nominate one Jury Commissioner, Tuesday, at 2 15558, p. m, candidate for and one candidate for Coroner, and | two candidates for the Legislature, | three Congressional Conferees, and to transact such other business as shall properly be brought up and the interests of the party may re- quize.

Mr. Russell, of Massa- chusetts, stated on the floor of the House that no less than four mills are in operation in his neighbor- hood making rags and shoddy into cloth for the American people. The taxed wool of Australia, Brazil and and the Argentine Republic costs 00 much. One ofthe mill-owners told Mr. Russell that he was sure prised to find so much of his shoddy coming back to him to be made once more isto cloth. The rotten stuff falls to pieces very quickly when exposed to the weather, Nor is this the worst, Much of the rags and shoddy that is not sent to the United States as raw material for manufacturingfis made into glossy but flimsy stuff in Europe and sent here over a tariff wall of 65 and jo per cent. The meaner and cheaper the stuff the higher the tariff. Thus far this country has been made the dump- ing - ground of all the beggarly and verminous rags of the universe.— Record, Mr. Brenner, formerly of this place, but now making Philadelphia his home, is visiting his sister Mrs, Clell Bamford, «The work on the new furnace is nearing completion.
