In order to facilitate the filling up of the tickets on election day, the names of Thomas W. Phillips, James M. Carson and C. F. L. McQuistion, have been printed on the Dalzell and Quay tiokets, they having no competition tor the nominations for Con gress, State Senate and County Surveyor. EVEBYBODY should read the ex tracts from Dalzell's speech on tbe. Tariff made in Congress last Friday. It appeals to intelligence and com mon sense. Tbe Democrats are at tacking tbe Tariff law piecemeal and Dalzell is its ablest champion on tbe floor oi the House. A Pennsylvan ian in Washington that day, said: "Every Pennsylvanian, without regard to political creed or party affiliation, who admires broad guage statesmanship, would have felt a sense or honest pride bubbling spontaneously from his heart, could he haye been a quiet listener to the great speech on the question of a protective tar iff, as delivered on the floor of tbe Nation al Honse of Representatives to-day by the Hon. John Dalsell " QUAY'S friends give bim the entire credit for carrying New York in 1888, forgetting that he had a force of trained politicians to aid bim, and that hundreds of thousands of dollars were placed at bis command. They also forget that all tbe elements in tbat state that year favored Harri son's election, whereas Blaine in 1884 was antagonized by Conkling and Curtis, and was at tbe last mo ment hurt by Burcbard's blunder. THE Primary election boards boards should be selected with care. Everybody is interested in a fair vote and correct count. - Tbe Return Judges or Co. Committeemen will have new duties, this year, under the new election law. Tuc exciting campaign ia Rhode Island was closed Wednesday by tbe election. Tbe rote was heavy and close. Tbe Legislature is sorely Re publican, which insures tbe re-elec tioo of Senator Aldrieb, one of tbe best men in tbe Senate. For Gov ernor no one, at this writing, is known to have a plurality and tbat election may also be thrown into the Legislature. That "Medal of Honor." The Pittsburgh Times with great zeal and heat protests against this paper s belittling Mr. Quay's services during the war. The Fres* has made no effort and has not the least disposition to detract from the glory, military and otherwise, which justly belongs to Senator Quay. On the contrary, the ecomiums which the Quay Press are pronouncing upon the junior Senator for his services and sacrifices in the war of the rebellion met our hearty concurrence, so lar as they are not exag gerated, silly or absolutely false. Mr. Quay's military career is disclosed in the official records on file in Washington. Hi" partisans and his opponents alike must adhere to that record. It shows that Mr. Quay left a berth in the Commissary De partment for active military duty, and after several months of camping and rest less marching, and one day's actual tight ing, he returned to service "near the person of the Governor" and never beheld the smoke of battle again. If it i? cruel to call attention to these facts, then it was very unwise in Mr. Quay and his friends to make his military achievements onb ol the issues in his canvass for re-election. Mr. Quay has chosen to pose as the soldier candidate. One ot the documents issued by his literary bureau is devoted entirely to the glorification of his military career. It claims in his behalf that the "soldiers of the Keystone State should have ai least one of their number iu the United States Senate." Ilis "medal of honor," procured from Cleveland's Secre tary of War when Quay was in the Senate and al>le_to reciprocate farors, is paraded iu this pamphlet as proof that his services in the Union cause in the war of the rebellion wero specially "distinguished and meritorious." The impression is sought to be conveyed that the medal is the spontaneous gift of the Government, made soon after the services were rendered, instead of having only been obtained only as the fruit of special solicitation twenty five years after the war terminated. We have never questioned Mr. Quay s courage. In civil life certainly he has proven that he posesscs it in an eminent degree. But Pennsylvania is full of soldiers of the war, both officers and privates, who have a thousand times stronger claim upon the Government than Mr. Quay for medals for "distinguished and meritorious services," and yet have not the smallest prospect of receiving them. If Pennsylvania must have a soldier Senator, let him be a real soldier and not one who, tor reasons which may be en tirely honorable to himself, was obliged to retire to civil life alter doing stall duty in a single battle. The record shows that Mr. Quay s claims to recognition for distinguished military services are a humbug: that his part in the war was as unimportant as it was brief; that in getting a medal for those services lie has been absurdly overpaid, and that he con on the strength of the medal so obtained mako no legitimate claim on the support of Union soldiers whose services, goffering*, and battles were protracted through all the years of the war, yet are without the political influence to obtain from a camplaisant Secretary of War the "medal of honor" awarded to this aide de camp of a single battle.—Philadelphia Press. THE Cameron Quay combine stands in the way of every honestly ambitious young Republican in this Btate. Enter your protest against it to-morrow. Do you want a political bcsa or a statesman to represent you in tbe United States Senate. If you prefer a statesman your first duty is to down the political boss who stands in the way, tor you can nccompliab nothing now and never will until he is downed. A POLITICAL boss ia out of place in a legislative hall; practical politics and statesmanship are opposite meu tal qualifications. If the proposition were that' Tbe Moon is made of green cheese", it would not be more absurd than that to continue in office and power a man who has shown himself unlit for and indifferent to his duties. We are at present misrepresented in the U. S. Senate by two giants in practical politics and ninnies in statemaijsbip Enter your protest against this state of affairs to morrow. Every vote counts. QUAY'S friends say that he in poor man; that he owns no property; but it known that be has stock in two Phil'a. street car companies and is President of one of them. We have been told, also, that be bus a big interest in the Pittsburg street cars, and that not long ago he and tbe crowd he works with had Chris Magee in a tight place, financially. Quay is in politics for money, and has made big money out of it—look at the Philadelphia Kecordership $40,000 a year for nothing. QUAY'S literary bureau mokes a great ado over bis military record,*tud the fact that he is iD possession ot one of the medals of honor, autboriz ed by Congress during or shortly af ter the war, for special acts of brav ery or meritorious conduct in battle. The facts of tbe case are that he was ia bat oae battle and ia that acted as u General's aid; that be left the army immediately after that battle; ll the linos that distinguish a protective from a revenue tariff. It aims to give to us, free of tax, all those articles necessary to our comfort that we either do not not or cannot suc cessfully produce at home. It gives to us a free list unprecedented in the history of tariff legislation. UIU FREE LIST OK THK PRESENT LAW. The revenue tariff of 1840, the idol of Democratic worship, gave us but 1- per cent of our importations fre.<. The tariff of 1857 gave us bnt 18 per cent ol our im portations free. The present law gives us in the neighborhood of one-half of all that we import unburdened by any tax, for. as I have already said, a revenue tariff.uulike a protective tariff, is a tax paid by the con sumer. A comparative statement of the free and dutiable imports published by the Treasury Department for the 12 months ending with February, 1891, and February, 1892, re spectively, which I will not read, but will print as an appendix, shows that whereas for the tirst named year our free imports aggregated 30 81 per cout, for the year ju-t ended they aggregated 53 10 per cent. A single item, that of sugar, transferred by the McKinley bill from the dutiable to the free list, relieved the taxpayers of this c.iuntry of burdens to the amount of $60,- 000,000 It effected a reform that reached into every home, lofty or humble. A hundred years or more of expense and ex periment had demonstrated that for the present, at least, we could not raise more than one-eighth of our consumption of sugar. The duty paid thereon was there fore a revenuo duty and a tax affecting the price of both the foreign and the domestic product. THE GROWING TIN PLATE INDUSTRY. The years we have been dependent upon England, without reason and against reason, for that whicb,by proper protection, we have tbe ability to make with profit to ourselves. Tho total quantity of tin plates imported into this country in the 20 years from 1871 to 1891 was 3,622,750 gross tons, and the total foreign value $307,341,404. In addition we paid freights and importers' profits. As to prices, England has dealt with us as she would, for as to this aiticle we have been absolutely dependant upon her. Can any man assign anj reason why this princely sulfa of money should have been diverted frtm the chwmels °f our domestic trade to enrich foreign maun faeturers ami feed foreign workmen instead of disseminating its blessings among our own ? There are to day in this country established and projected, over 20 tin plate establishments. They have a capital of $3,000,000. They have an estimated capacity of 36,500 boxes per week. Prior to 1870 we had no steel rail indus try, but were wholly dependent on Eng land for our supply. She charged us for steel rails $l5O per ton in gold. Congress put on a tariff duty of S2B per ton. Mark the result. We now produce more steel rails per annum than does England, and the cost is nearly the same in JTew York as in London. CLOSK OK A REMARKABLE BPEBCH. Mr. I)al/ell followed with a similar ar ray of figures iu regard to cotton ties, binding twine, etc., and closed as follows: Chairman I have said nothing, ex cept incidentally, of the results of the legislation now so unscientifically attack ed by these extraordinary measures repre senting a mongrel policy, nor do I pro pose to do so. It is sufficient to say that every promise mado for it by its friends and champions has been fully realized in practice, and every calamitous prophecy of its opponents proven false and unfounded. Under its beneficent influauce our foreign trade, instead of diminishing, grown as it never grow before, an I to proportions magnificent to contemplate. In the aggregate of !be world's traffic an increasing balance of profit has come to us, homo industries have been revived and new ones have sprung up, labor has con tinned to reoeive ica fail share of reward, and the country has in comparison with others, kept its plac* in all that contri butes to the national and individual wel fare 411 things bavo combined to indorse as wise and beneficent, tlje economic polj u j will always observe that the corporations employ the ablest lawyers whenever they have occasion toetnpl . Ml> at all. It is also a tact that in the House of j Representatives Mr Dalrcll hits l>':*n one i of the ablest and most efficient opponents of some of the big corporations that have tried to get their nauds into the public treasury. Bat his attack upon Mr. Dal zell has called public attention to the fact that Mr. Quay has been and now is some thing more than an attorney of the corpor ation, being a corporation man himself. A correspondent of the Philadelphia Press, in commenting on the attacks on Dalzell, calls attention to the fact* as follows: "It is a tribute to Mr. Dalzefl's ability that he was employed by a corporation.and such employment in no wise unfitted him to be the able Congressman and true Rep resentative of the people he has shown himself to be daring his entire public career It occnred to me. however, to see how his opponent. Mr. Quay, stood on this question of corporations. In fifteen minutes I discovered that he was president | of ihe Seventeenth and Nineti-eth Streets ! Passenger Railway Company and a di j rector of the Union Passenger Hail way , Company, both controlled by the Traction | Company, in which, I am told, he is a large stockholder. This is the corporation which is now boldly defying the [ eople of Phila delphia. lam also told that Mr. yuay, during his entire public career, has been the friend, ally and agent ol the great railroad corporations of the state. Surely, be and his friends were fools, indeed, to raise this question." These facts are commended to the consideration of the gentlemen who have lately been thrown into such spasms by the fear that a "corporation man" might be elected Senator from Pennsylvania.— Wel lsboro Agi tu tor. Harrison in This State. The wisdom of the last Republican State Convention in refusing to allow President Harrison to be affronted in the platform mast now be evident even to those who have hitherto been blind to it. If that platform had been made expressive of Sen ator Quay's personal grievance with the Administration, as was designed, it would have left the Republican party of the Stale in a peculiarly undesirable condition at this time. That was avoided by common sense and good judgement. That action, however, did not prevent the Philadelphia managers of the party from holding a snap election for national delegates early ia January and commit ting the blunder which the State Conven tion declined to m »ke. We have ten del egates from the five Congressional dis tricts of this city elected in a spirit of op position lo the President. Protests against the naming of these ten delegates fivo months before the convention would meet were of no avail and with two or three others, either elected last year or too early this year, they represent the sole attempt to obstruct the popular desire for Presi dent Harrison's renomiuatiou. The}* will now go to the convention and vote for Mr. Harrison, iu all probability, but neither they nor their constituents will get credit for doing what they have tried to prevent. Meantime the Republicans in the interior counties aro pursuing a different course. They are for President Harrison and tboy are electing delegates and passing resolutions in accordance with that seuti mcnt. In many of them instructions are given the delegates, as in Adams, Blair, Huntingdon, York and practically in Bucks, while in others like Dauphin, Wyoming and Franklin the Administration has)beeu so decisively indorsed as to amount to substantial direction to the delegates in favor of the President's renominatiou. This was followed by a nearly unanimous declaration in Mr. Harrison's behalf in the four counties which held Republican pri maries on Saturday last. The strength and significance of this is that it comes from tho Republican people, and by taking such action they will get the credit lor the votes of their representa tives iu tho National Convention. The petty grievances of political managers are swept aside aud the people are taking the broad interests of the party into account, instead of the personal schemes of individ uals. It is altogether likely that nearly, if not quite, all tho conventions yet to be held in the interior counties will pursue this course, and it will be made the more decisive if instructions accompany the res olutions of indorsement. This is obvious ly the only course that can be pursued if the people are to make themselves heard in the convention. Pennsylvania has Bhown itself to be about solid for Harrison, and if the delega tion is representative of the popular choice the Republican party of the State will for the first time in many years have a correct and dignified position in the proceedings of the National Convention. It will not be misrepresented aud subjected to the humiliation of seeing its representatives misused by intriguing and self-seeking party managers. In that way alone will the more than half a million Republican voters of Pennsylvania exercise their pro per influence and secure just recognition. —Philadelphia Press. North Washington. Win.

The Pittsbug Clirouie ToUjrai>h , of last Saturday evening, told the following story: H. G. Wilson, a Butler county fanner, was sand-bagged and robbed in the Dia mond market last night A description of his assailants has been furnished the police, and the man will bo captured to dav. Wilson camo to the city yesterday for the purpose of buying a lot of groceries and household goods with which to stock his little home in iiutler, having only been married a few of weeks. After transacting all his business he concluded to take ia the sights before he returned to bis country home. Iu his travels ho visited a number of saloons in the central part of the city, and it was while in one of these that he met a man who claimed to have formerly lived in Butler county. A friendship soon sprang up between the two. The stranger suggested to the farmer that they attend the theater. The country boy put up $2 for the best seats in the house and they attended the show together. When the show was out Wilson told bis friend that he would have to hurry to catch the train, as he had only a few minutes in which to reach the depot The stranger consented to accompany him as far as the station, but assured hiui that there was no need to hurry, as there was ample time. When they reached the depot Wilson was informed that the last train for Butler had gone half an hour before. The stranger then suggested that Wilson go to his room aud stay all uight, which invitation he accepted. They again came over to Pittsburgh, aud while passing through the Diamond market the stranger turned suddenly and seized Wilson by the throat. At the saaie time a man jumped out of the shadow of the market aud dealt hiin a terrific blow on the top of the head, which felled him to the ground. The men then went through his pockets and robbed him of soo aud a railroad ticket. He was found by Officer Conway an hour later lying in "the street. The man told the officer that ho had been robbed, but as he appeared to be intoxicated the policeman locked him up on a charge of drunkenness. At the hearing this morning his head was shown to be badly bruised and his ueck was swollen to almost twice its nor mal size. This, he claims, was caused by the man chuking him. Judge MeKanna instructed the arresting officer to take Wilson to Police Headquarters and furnish a description of his assailants. Detective Shore investigated the case aud says there is nothing iu the man's story—that there were no bruises on him and he tells several conflicting stories. He says the man claimed to be robbed to save himself from being lined for drunken ness DEATHS KNOX —At his home in l'arker twp,March 20, 1892, George Knox, aged 08 years.
