Let every Republican committeeman
attend to his duty of seeing that every

CLEVELAND and bis administration
are responsible for this loss to the
wool grower. The policy which b*f
canned it was inaugurated by him
and toreed upon his party by an un
scrupulous use of tbe veto power aud
the Federal patronage. This mny
work very well with members of Con
great and professional politicians, but
it iaproring a dismal failure with th«
sovereign voter.
The Farmer Protected.
The principal Democratic argument
agaioat tariff ia that it ia a protection
of oae class at tbe expense of another;
that while the workers in mines and
manufactories are benefitted, thegrea
agricultural population of tbe country
ia grievously burdened without any
return. Thia argument proceeds up
on the supposition that tbe farmei
reeeirea no protection, the tarifl
achedule being arranged to include
only such articles as are produced in
milla, shops, mines, etc. If this wen
true it might afford some reason why
the farmers should favor free trade,
hat it ian't true. Tbe farmer is pro
tected along with all otber classes of
producers; hia staple products' upon
the sale of which be depends for hit
profits, are all included in the ached
ale of dutiable articles In order to
compete with him in the American
market foreign producers are com
pelled to pay tariff duties according
to the following rates, taken from tbe
oßdal list:
Different kinda of live stock, 20 per
cent ad valorem.
Beef and pork, 1 ct. per pound.
Hama and bacon, 2 eta. per pound
Extract of meats. 20 per cent ad
valorem.
Cheese, 4 cts per pound.
Batter, and substitutes therefor, 4
cts per poand.
Lard, 2 cts. per pouod.
Wheat, 20 cts. per basbel.
Corn, oats, rye and barley, 10
* per baahel.
Barley, pearled pateot or hulled, £
ct. per poand.
Barley malt, 20 cts. per busbel.
Cornmeal, 10 cts. per basbel.
Oatmeal, £ ct. per pound.
Rye flour, £ ct. per pound.
Wheat floor, 20 per cent, ad valor
em.
Hay, $2 per too.
HOMJ, 20 eta per gallon.
Hop*, 8 eta. per poaod.
Milk, condensed, 20 per cent ad
valorem.
Potatoes, 15 eta. per bushel.
All other vegetables, 19 per cent,
ad valorem.
Fruits, 28 per cent, ad valorem.
Vinegar, 7$ eta. per gallon.
Flax straw, $5 per ton.
Wool at 30 eta. a pound or less, 10
cents; at over 30 eta. a pound, 12 cis.
Flax, not hackled, $24 per ton.
Flax, hackled, known as "dressed
line," S4O per ton.
Sugar cane. 10 per cent, ad valor-
There are other products of the
(arm included in the list but those
above enumerated are sufficient for
the preeent purpose. It is thus seen
the American farmer is not only giv
en a home market, the best and most
convenient market in.the world, by
the protection and preservation of
American industry, but this market
ie secured to him against all compe
tition from abroad; it is all his own
The protection is not merely nomi
nal It is a positive and direct bene
fit, and its removal would prove dis
aatrous. For instance, take the tar
iff of 20 cents a busbel off wheat and
oar large cities and manufacturing
districts would be speedily flooded
with wheat from across our Northern
border, millions oi bushels of which
is in store in Manitoba, waiting for
snch an opportunity, nor is it certain
that the tariff of 20 cents will avail
mech longer to keep tbem out.
The orator or writer who says tbe
farmer is not benefitted by protection
dearly doesn't know what he is talk
iag about, or else is trying to deceive.
Either directly or indirectly no
ctaes of the population is more inter
ested in maintaining tbe protective
system than are tbe tillers of tbe soil.
—Emporia Republican.
SBSATOR FARWKLL acted promptly
as well as grace folly on Monday week,
la proposing s pension of SSOOO for tbe
widow of General Sheridan. Tbe

mittee on Pensions, of which Senator
Davis is chairman, and beyond ques
tion a favorable report will be made
without delay. In the House, how

What the British Want.
The electioneering campaign in
America ought to be most interesting
to the English people for historical,
political, philosophical and economic
reasoD?. * * * The main ques
tion at issue is ENQLISH FREE
TRADE AGAINST THE CONTI
NENTAL SYSTEM OF PROTEC
TION. The republic is on trial
Good, conservative government, un
der Cleveland, is opposed by the rule
and ruin party of Blaine, whose
friends nominated Harrison, and who
would certainly be Secretary of State
under a Harrison administration.
Thus the American people are direct
ly involved in the contest through
their pockets, which will be affected
by the tariff, and their future, which
would be seriously influenced by the
restoration to power of such a fire
brand as Blaine, with his home rule
sympathies and bis anti-Canadian
policy. THE AMERICAN ELEC
TION IS INFINITELY MORE
IMPORTANT TO ENGLISHMEN
THAN THEIR OWN INTERNAL
POLITICS JUST AT THIS
JUNCTURE, and they should ob
serve every phase of the campaign
closely and understandingly. It is
from this point of view that the co
pious dispatches to the Sunday
Times are cabled. THE RESULT

Hospitals for Miners.
The Legislature, at last session,
passed an act providing for the erec
tion of three hospitals in counties em
bracing the bituminous coal regions
of this State, and the Governor has
appointed a commission to select the
sites for the hospitals. Butler would
be an advantageous location for one
of these institutions, being in the
heart of the bituminous coal section,
and our people should look after the
matter. Our county has no member
on the commission, and as Mercer has
we suppose her chances for a sits will
be better than ours, or any of the ad
joining counties. The sn mof $20,000
is appropriated (or each hospital, aud
the object is to have a place for the
nursing and care of coal miners when
injured in mining or by explosions or
otherwise. Since writing above a
meeting of some citizens has taken
place, as will be seen.

Blaine's Welcome Home--His
First Speech.
NEW YORK, AUK. 10 —Mr. Bart
lett delivered the following speech of
welcome:
MR BLAINE— The Republican
Club of the citv of New York aud its
invited quests tender you,sir,tbrouirh
me as President of the club, their
warmest greetings and sincerest con
gratulations upon your arrival once
more in health and strength on thew
shores When the club first proposed
this reception it was not intended as
an act having political significance.but
rather as a private expression of love
aud regard for one whom we look up
on as our most illustrious citizeu
But we found our suggestion stirred
the friendly jealousy of the whole
country, and with one accord it was
insisted that the event of your arrival
home should be the occasion of a
demonstration more general in its
character than was originally con
templated; and as a result there were
assembled for several days in the city
of New York tens of thousands of
your friends from all parts of the
country impatiently waiting to pay
you the generous tribute of their
respect and admiration. The delay
in your arrival has interfered to some
extent with the program Last night
the great parade took place, about
40,000 strong, lacking but one thing,
your inspiring presence.
We are not assembled, sir, on this
occasion in a spirit of adulation to do
homage to one occupying high official
position, nor are we seeking to fioii
favor with a candidate upon whom
the mantle of power is soon to rest;
but we come to greet a private citizen
whose name is so intimately a*socia
ted in our history for the past gener
ation that no office can add lustre to
his fame or increase the esteem and
admiration in which he is held by his
fellow-countrymen. Again, sir, I bid
you welcome to your native shores
RESPONSE OF MR BLAINE.
Mr, Blaine said in reply:
MR, PRESIDENT AND GENTLEMEN
OF THE REPUBLICAN CLUB AND FEL
LOW CITIZENS —To enable you to ap
preciate this welcome, each and every
one of you should be absent from
home and country tor the long period
of fourteen months. lam sure you
can have little conception of the great
gratification of that instant when I
saw the shores of the Great Republic.
I cannot tell you how deeply grateful
lamto be remembered in tuis man
ner by you and these assembled gen
tlemen. It is a scene I shall never
forget. It is an occasion which I as
sure you 1 appreciate from the depths
of my hearts. It is shadowed only
by the sad event which greeted us as
the first piece of American news we
heard—the death of General Sheridau
a man who was above party, aud
stood for the union of the States.
[Shouts of "Good."] With that ex
ception my arrival upon my native
shore was unattended by anything
but joy and happiness.
The campaign on which you a>e
about to enter should be prefaced, if
that were possible, by every voter iu
the United States seeing what 1 have
["Good, good"), and hearing what I
have heard during the last year.
[Applause] The progress of the
campaign iu the United States is
viewed from the European standpoint
with an interest as profound as it is
in the United States. It is the op
portunity of England. It is the
looked-for occasion upou which the
cheaper labor and cheaper fabrics of
the old world expect to invade the
new and lower wages of Armrichii
workingmen to the European sraud
ard- [Great applause] It is not a
contest of capital against capital; it is
not a contest of partisau against par
tisan, It is much higher than either
of these. It transcends all party mo
tive [Applause.] Whether the great
mass of American citizens who earn
their bread by the sweat of their
brow shall be seriously reduced iu
their emolument from day to day [ap
plause]—that is the whole pith and
moment of this question. Anything
that diverts the question from that
single point iB a weakening of the
campaign. [Applause and cries of
•'Good "] 1 say here, as I hope to
say with much more elaboration [loud
cheering and cries of "That's what
we want"] —I say here that the
wages of the American laborer can
not be reduced except with the con
sent and the votes of the American
laborer himself The appeal lies to
him. It comes to bis door and asks
him whether, with the great power
of the franchise and the great major
ity he possesses in his own bauds, he
is willing for himself aud his associ
ates, his children and his children's
children to take that fatal step at the
bidding of an American Congress aud
an American President who are gov
erned by that element which sought
to destroy this Nation.
But, gentlemen, it is not a time for
a political speech. My heart is too
full to enter at this time on lengiheu
ed argument. In this moment of
we'.come and joy, getting home to old
scenes aud old friends, I must be al
lowed to enjoy the pleasant emotious
of the occasion. I ean only add my
fervaut thanks to each and every
member of the club and to all uiy
friends for the generous and joyous
welcome they haye extended to me
in the harbor of New *-
An Important Matter.
It should not be forgotten that
Thursday, September 6th, is the last
day for the registration of voters
Eyery person who intends to vole

are registered. Do not neglect to at

Harrison built a home. Cleveland
lived in law chambers.
Harrison taught a Sunday school

he traveled in another direction.

A Remarkable Accident.
On the 9tb inet., as Joseph Rich
ards, a boy of 14 years, was driving
a mule in the Murray shaft at Wilkes
Barre, Pa., a train of five loaded
cars ran away and came down tbe
plane. The cars struck tbe boy with
terrible force and drove him against
the mule. 80 tremendous was the
blow that the boys bead was driven
into tbe mule's abdomen His shoul
der was broken and he was otherwise
injured. When lh« horrified miners
discovered tbe boy's terrible condi
tion they tried to extricate him and
found tbe united strength of two
men necessary. The boy was taken
home for dead, but revived some
what, tbongb his skull is fractured,
and he will probably die. Tbe mule
died almost immediately after the ac
cident.
—Editor Charles A. Dana in bis
recent speech before the lowa editors
said some things that many editors
have not yet found out. "The news
paper must be founded upon buman
nature. It must correspond to the
wants of tbe people. It must furnish
that sort ot information which tbe
people demand, or else it never can
be successful. The first thing which
au editor must look for is news. If
tbe newspaper has not tbe new-i, it
may have everything else, yet it will
be comparatively unsuccessful; and
bv news 1 mean everything that oc
curs,every thing which is of human in
terest, and which is of sufficient im
portance to arrest and absorb tbe at
tention of tbe public, or of any con
siderable part of it. Tbere is a great
disposition in some quarters to say
that tbe newspapers ought to limit
the amount ot news that tbey print;
that certain kinds of news ought not
to be published. Ido not know bow
that is lam not prepared to main
tain any abstract proposition in that
line; but I have always felt whatever
the Divine Providence permitted to,
occur I was not too proud to report.'
CONGRESSMAN FORAN, of Cleveland
Ohio, the one Democrat who would
uot vote at all on the Mills bill, pre
dicts a Republican majority ef fifteen
in the next House.- Well, fifteen
will do, but it is more likely to be
fifty.

ber in Chicago promises to be tbe
beginning of tbe breaking up of an
association of mail robbers, operating

—The earth grazed the meteoric
