"Our protectionists have, been building defenses to keep you and other nations from competing with us in our home markets. The tariff reformers are breaking down these defenses."-William L. Wilson, author of the Wilson tariff bill, to the London chamber of commerce. Hindside Before. "We have," says Chairman Wilson, "reached a stage in our development where the great need, the absolute necessity, of the American farmer and laborer is larger markets for what he produces. Our capacity for producing has far outstripped our own power of consuming. For a surplus of farm products or of manufactured (roods there is but one healthy safety valve, and that Is commerce. Without that safety valve there is distress and suffo cation. Without buyers for our pro ducts there is no employment, or pre carious employment and scant wages for labor. These are simple truths, but they are for most American working men tremendous truths, for they con trol their welfare and decide their con -ditioninlife." These are noble sentiments; and the Republican party gladly accepts them, Upon them as a premise, there can be no conflict. The difference begins when the two parties try to reach con clusions. Ninety per cent of the pro ducts of our farms are consumed at home; ten per cent, are consumed abroad. Mr. Wilson is anxious to nurse that ten per cent, but indiffer ent to the other ninety. The Demo cratic policy proceeds upon the basis that if we shall generously give the foreigners a chance to take their pick of our home market, they will volun tarily respond by letting us undersell them abroad. The Republican policy proceeds upon a basis of keeping intact the big market that we already have the greatest single market in civili zation and, with that as a nucleus for growth, reach out for foreign markets at such times as we shall get the chance. Under reciprocity we were getting plenty of chance. "Without buyers for our products there is," indeed, "no employment for labor." But we cannot get buyers for our products simply by doing our own buying pretty much all of the other fellows. When every $4 worth of imports means the loss of (1 in home wages, American labor is not to be en riched by increases in our imports tlons. We could get along very toll if we had only half as many imports as at present What we want is ex- porta. And exports, as we have re peatedly shown by official statistics, always decrease under Democratic times. Mr. Wilson has the right idea upside down. He goes at the thing backwards. He is a theorist who doesn't seem to be able to understand that the way to be prosperous in America is to do work in America, paying American wages for that work, and. selling that product so that, if there be any foreign trade at all, the cash! balance shall be in America's favor. "To deprive any citizen of the fruits of his own toil by unjust taxation Is robbery. To deprive him of the oppor tunity to toll for his ltvlncf is still worse robbery," says Chairman Wil liam Lu Wilson! anil vat !iha Ttomo- arty defiantly dots this. It idj unjust taxation wnen it imposes the iniquitous income tax; and it deprives labor of the opportun ity to toil when it pursues its senseless rush toward free trade and throws 3,000,000 men out of employment ThuB Democracy stands doubly condemned by its own foremost champion and ex ponent. The Republican candidate for congress, Mr. Seranton, has accom plished more for his district, on an average, in one .term tnan an uie Democratic representatives that the district has ever had have accom plished collectively. Results count. Convenient. The celerity with which Colonel Alexander McClure's Philadelphia Times can assume a surprising politi cal position is surpassed only by the dexterity with which it can vault back again when it sees it has made a tactical mistake. An amusing exam ple of this versatility was supplied yesterday when the Times, which had one week before called David B. Hill all the polite names of abuse in its vocabulary, and had given him over, body, soul and clothing, to political cremation, now compliments his "bold and able leadership and political re sources," and asserts that "nothing but a sweeping Democratic slump can defeat him." The convenience of this double- sided advocacy will be apparent on the evening of Nov. 6, when the editor of the Times, whichever way the bat tle goes, can turn to his brilliant files, complacently polish his glasses and say, in that suave way so subtle in its child-like charm: "Bless you, my boy! didn't I tell you so?" Frank Clemons, candidate for sheriff of Lackawanna county,is a man of recognized business ability. His record is clean socially, politically aud in business life. The election of Mr. Clemons will be a deserved recog nition of merit and will also have its effect in helping to weaken the local influence of the party bent upon the destruction of the nation's industries. Elevated Argument. As an elevated and elegant specimen of political argument the following editorial paragraph from Candidate Singerly's paper is entitled to conspic uous mention. "The venerable Galusha A. Grow took advantage of the flue weather last week to make four cam paign speeches in Lackawanna county. One would think that such a seamed and grizzled veteran might be allowed to sit in his easy chair and watch the procession; but the exigencies of par tisanshlp admit of no lenity. Protec tion is in its last ditch; but the work. ers in Pennsylvania mines and manu factories are expected to keep on fight ing a losing battle uutil some new jack-o'-lautern can be devised to entice them away from the safe harbor of Democracy." So protection is in its last ditch, is it? What will Edward Merrifleld say to that the Edward Merrifleld, we mean who, as we understand, said in private conversation, and intimated as much in a public interview, immediately after his nomination, that he would, if elected, "hang out for protection if he was the last Democrat that did." Does he, too, believe that "protection is in its last ditch"? When Candidate Sing erly comes to Seranton, to speak from the same platform with the Demo cratic candidate for congress, we shall suggest that Mr. Merrifleld and Com modore Singerly come to an under standing on this point, and so an nounce to their audience. The indus trial workers of this county have a right to know which is to be believed. As for the Philadelphia Record's in sulting allusions to Mr. Grow, they call for no comment Democracy is evidently completely lost. Patriotic people regardless of party feeling are inclined to resent the efforts of the present Democratic ad ministration to belittle the achieve ments of the war veteran. ' This is a good year to show your appreciation of the services of the natiou's defenders. William S. Hopkins, candidate for Register of Wills, is an ideal represen tative of the brave soldier. His elec tion Will be a healthy indication that patriotism is not dead In Lackawanna county. Dan Voorhees' Chance. Having last Monday, at Jefferson- ville, Ind., predicted that "wool would sell within two weeks at prices higher than prevailed at any time under the McKlnleyact," Senator Voorhees, the unterrlfled swashbuckler of the Wa bash, will no doubt be pleased to read the following Interesting proposition from Theodore Justice, of the firm of Justice, Bateman & Co., of Philadel phia: If von feel confident of your prediction that wool "will sell within two weeks at prices higher than prevailed at any time under the McKiuley act," the firm of which I am a memDer can oner you an oppor tunity for a profitable Investment on wool. They will furnish a XX Ohio, whiub is about the finest grade of American wool at 180. for such as sold at 80X& on March 1, KM, a decline or over aa per cent, since the McKinley law was administered by General Harrison's administration and im mediately before tariff revliion was began, and which told at 84Ko. In March, 1891. immediately after the McKiuley law was enacted. An advance In the price within two weeks from KHe. to 84o., highest prion under the McKinley law, would be an advance of over SO per cent, paying a profit of 1160,000 on each million pounds of wool bought. If your prediction Is oorrect here is an opportunity to make money such as seldom occurs more than ones In a life time, and It you doiire to make the opera tion my firm will furnish 80 per cent, of the money required and will buy the wool for von. and you oan secure as many mil lion pounds In the markets of Philadelphia and Boston as you will probably want, as every responsible wool dealer in these mar kets will be glad to take your business on the sams terms. As the McKinley law on "manufactures of wool" Is still in foree and, as the reduced duties of the Senate bill do not go into effect until Jan. 1, 1895, and as the mills already have free wool, of course they are busy. The contrast between busy Ameri can woolen mills and a dull Amerlean wool market with falling prices la one of the first fruits oi the repeal or the . fluty on wool. Many manufacturers who, under the McKinley law wool schedules, previous to their repeal ware using American wool exclusively, are now using foreign. Others are now using foreign wools to mix with domestic who, previous to Aug. 27, were using the latter exclusively, so that the promised Inoreased use of American wool (under the new tariff law) for mixing pur poses has not ben fulfilled, but on the other band American wool ha so far been displaced by the use of foreign as to make the former almost unsalable, Involving concessions in price in order to place American wool on even terms with for eign wool. It is exceedingly gratifying to learn that Americans are soon to have an advancing wool market, for under the new tariff bill the only decliuiug wool markets in the world are lu tie United States, while foreign markets are advancing, as you will see by reading the daily cable re ports oi the London wool auctions. Amer ican wools have ilocliued at a time when the American mills whiou are still operat ing under the McKiuley law are the only mills iu the world that are at present orowded with orders. This statement of fact does not tally very closely witli tne Jfniladelphia Record's editorial assertion printed on the same day that Mr, Justice pub lished his letter, that "with the repeal of the duties the American manufac turers now enjoy equal advantages with their European competitors. All the markets of the world are open to them for the first time for the choice of their raw materials. In consequence of the change of policy there will be an increased demand for both domestic and foreign wools, and some varieties of American wool, which also have their peculiar excellence, will soon bo sought for in European markets." But this arises from the circumstance that Mr. Justice knows what he is talking about, while the Record Is merely theorizing. We do not think Dan Voorhees will get ricli in a fortnight by accepting the foregoing offer. It would be as fatal to have your throat cut by a good man as a thug. This rule applies to politics also. The good man who travels with the party that has but one avowed purpose, viz., the destruction of American industries, is not to be trusted In office, liign or humble. This is a good year for all well-meaning citizens to vote the straight Republican ticket and take no chalices. POLITICAL NOTES. The effort to make it appear that Ed ward Merrifleld, the Domocratio candi date for congress in the Lackawanna dis trict is a protectionist Is becoming rather ridiculous, in the opinion of the Philadel phia Press, which thinks that "Candidate biucerly will be apt to turn his search light on that hybrid and expose it. He has no patience with Democrats who pretend to be protectionists, and has declared that such are rrauds. Mr. Merrineld naturally does not want to be regarded as a fraud, but as long as be attempts to pose as a protectionist and a Democrat at once be cunnot fail to know that he is looked upon as a fraud by the Democratic candidate for governor. Mr. Singerly says protection as a principle is dead and damned, and before he said this he must have heard that Mr. Merrifleld was pretending to be for protection. The free trade candidate for governor is not likely to give tlie free trade candidate for con gress mnch chance to play the protection dodge this year. It is a good thing to have tuemsmoKeU out they nave imposed upon the people long enough. If Mr. Merrineld were elected he would vote for a free trade speaker and a free trade organization of the house. JNo sincere protectionist would do such a thing." The people of this county, fortunately, nave taken an accurate measure of Mr. Merrifleld'e pro tection bluff: aud he will be afforded no opportunity to Amermanize. This is how the Pittebnrg Dispatch com ments upon Governor Wat res' senatorial candidacy: "The candidacy of Lieutenant Governor Wat res for toe next United States senatorship Is formally announced, The record of Mr. Watres lu state politics is clean and honorable. In his legislative career be has been peculiar among Keoub i ican politicians ior uis ireeuom irom cor porate Influences, and bis character for blllty ana integrity is ummpeacned. Fonr years ago, he was nominated for his present position in the hope that his repu tation would bolster up the Delamater ticket, with the result that while Dels mater was defeated by 10.000, Watres was elected by 22,000. Such a senator would be a vast Improvement on one whose sena torial achievements coexist of moving ad journments, pairing with Senator Butler, of South Carolina, and negotiating allian ces with the Populists. It Senator Cameron wishes to depart into the PoDiiliut camp, the Republicans ot Pennsylvania should welcome the opportunity to replace bim with a man of the Watres stamp. But has the Republican organization ot Penn sylvania attained that independence of the hereditary ownership of the tamerons ti at would be implied In tbe election ot Senator iu Cnmerou's piaoe who would really represent the Republicans of the state f It seems to belong to the list of things that are too good to be true." The Pittsburg Commercial Gazette says "The boom of Lieutenant Governor Louis A. Watres for United States senator, which was started by the Twentieth sen torial district convention, is being indus triously helped along. Copies of the reso lutions adopted by that convention, pledg lng tbe nominee to support Watres for United States senator.are being distributed throughout the state, together with some newspaper comment, mere is no inistuu iug the fact that there is a strong anti Cameron sentiment in many if not in all parts of the (state, and It has been shown in the Fourteenth district as strongly as by tbe Twentieth. Evidence has also re cently been given by Montgomery, Bucks, Chester ane other counties. Lieutenant Governor Watres has many friends aud admirers in Allegheny couuty who will probably try to give him some assistance. though the two senators to be elected bore this fall have not yet been asked to express themselves on the subject oi Cameron's re-election or his successor. Several other booms are likely to rise before the session of 1807, and among them is that of Peter A. B. Widener, the chief magnate of the Philadelphia tractlou syndicate." i "The nominees for congress so far In nlndn seven newsDBper editors Perkins of the Sioux City Journal, Clark of tbe Keo kuk Gate City. Barrett or the Boston Ad vertiser. Southwick of ths Albany Journal. Taft of tbe Cincinnati Times Mar, Van Horn of tbe Kansas City Journal, aud Quigg of the New York Tribune," says the Syracuse rost. vvuais tue matter witn Joseph A. Seranton, of the Seranton Re publican f r It must be conceded that Dramatist Daniel L. Hart exhibits a large amount of shrewd sense In sticking to the baslnesa in which be bns a promising future, and in not worrying about the paltry legislative nomination conferred upon him by Wilkei-Uarre democrats. .ven it Hart were on the spot, Greluer would beat him As it Is, he is saving money, time an patience, and building a genuine reputa tion. Nbw that Grant Herring has appointed Richard lira nd age, jr., deputy revenue collector for Luzerne county we trust that Colonel Boyd will find it In his heart to let up a little on one who Is or his own par tlsan household; and particularly, to be trifle more lenient toward tbe star-eyed goddess or civil service rerorm, ot which Democracy is so greatly enamored. News via WHkei-Barre. Special to Philadehihia Frets, It Is reported here that foreigners, nota bly Hungarians, Polanders and Italians, who have been refused naturalization papers in this city, go to Seranton and are there given the necessary certificates of citizenship. Upon being refused papers by Judge Rice, it is said, they went to prominent Democrats here ana were oy them sent to Lackawanna Democrats in Seranton with letters of instrnetion and were then rushed through the naturaliza tion mill in the Seranton court.
