CAMPBELL CHAIRMAN GENERAL CLARKSON WILLINGLY STEPS OUT. He flays the President la Opposed to Ills Ro-elcction, and He Refuses to Fight for the Place—New Plan for the Selec tion of Delegates. I WASHINGTON, June 38. —The national Re publican committee organized for the presi dential camptvi|£n of 1802 by electing W. J. t Campbell, of Chicago, as its chairman; Cor nelius N. Bliss, the New York banker, as treasurer, and Land Commissioner Carter, of Montana, as secretary. Next to the selec tion of its officers, the most important feat ure of tho session was the proposition of Delegate Scott, of West Virginia, looking to tho complete reformation of the present method of apportioning delegates to the na tional convention. Mr. Scott proposes that horeafter delegates shall be apportioned to a state, not in proportion to the electoral vote to which it is entitled, but in propor tion to the Republican vote cast. Who Mr. Campbell In. Mr. Campbell's selection was first urged by Secretary Rusk and L. T. Michener, both of whom have a great admiration for tho qualities posossed by the new chairman. Ho was born in Philadelphia Dec. 12, 1850, . hut as ho wont to Chicago when an infant he is practically a native of that city. He is recognized as an attorney of great shrewd ness, and is the lawyer for Armonr & Co. Mr. Campbell has had much to do with shap ing state legislation in Illinois for the last fourteen years. He was elected to the sen ato in 1878 and again in 1882, being elected president pro tem of tho senate in 1881 und also in 1883 and 1885. Mr. Campbell was a dolegato to the Repub lican national convention of 1880 and 1888 and was chairman of Cook county Repub lican committee during tho latter campaign. In 1890 Mr. Campliell was chosen the Illinois member of tho Republican national com niittee to Buccoed Colonel George R. Davis, In personal appearance Mr. Campbell is commanding. Stalwart in physique, his clean shaven face is almost boyish in ap pearance. Clurkftnn Heady to Iletlre. During the session of the committeo ex- Senator J. Sloat Fassett, who appeared as tho proxy of Frank S. Witherbeo, urged the M selection of Mr. Clarkson. ▼ Mr. Clarkson in reply said that while he appreciated the friendship extended, and while ho had the personal tender of forty one members of tho committee of their sup port, and thirty had declared their inten tion to vote for him whether ho was a can didate or not, it was his duty to say that the president desired some one olseas chair man, and as a good Republican he bowed cheerfully to the desire. Quay and Dudley Kuloglzed. Resolutions highly eulogistic of ex-Chair mnn Clarkson were adopted. In response to calls Mr. Clarkson said: "For the goodwill and honor conferred by these resolutions lam deeply grateful. To my knowledge no campaign was ever con ducted more cleanly, more honestly, than tho campaign of 1888. I know Senator Quay and General Dudley, and I hope there is no Republican in this land who ever cease to render due honor to those two honorable men, and I want to say to you, gentlemen, 0 that upon my dying bed, before my family, I could not name two men more to be loved and honored than Senator Quay and General Dudley. I want to warn you, gen tlemen, against a growing tendency in the Republican party, under tho hypocrisy of tho times, not to defend its leaders. "The cases of Senator Quay and General Dudley afford living examples of this prac tice. So far as I am concernod, if [ have another boy to name I will be glad to con fer upon him the name of Quay or Dudley." Republicans at Rochester. ROCHESTER, N. Y., June 39.—President McAlpin will probably be re-elected at the session of the Republican league. Henry C. Brewster, of Rochester, will l>e made vice president, and A. B. Colvin, of Glen's Falls, treasurer. There are a thousand delegates present at tho convention. In his address President McAlpin said he thought that tho assemblage, at so early a period of tho campaign, of such au enthusiastic body of Republicans was au augury of victory. Tlio Ticket Kulogized. President McAlpin tlion oulogizod the Republican ticket, and said that the League had grown from a few clubs to an organiza tion of more than 500 clubs, embracing a membership of over 100,(XX). Ho concludod amid wild applause. Letters of regret at their inability to attend the convention were read from President Harrison, White law Reid, Governor McKinley, T. C. Piatt, Hoc-rotary Tracy nnd others. In the evening fully 4,000 people were in the riuk at the great mass mooting. Charles J. Werner presided, and in the course of his speech paid a tJbnto to the abilitios and worth of James G. Blaine. Great cheering broke out over nud over again, but a mo ment later when the name of Harrison was mentioned, the cheering was trebled. While Congressman Burrows, of Michigan, was speaking, the delegates from Elmira' Bloat Fassett's home, marched in with a great Harrison hat, promising to Harrison every bit of onorgy which loyal Chemung would have given to Blaine. Burrows' speech was a dissection of the alleged fallacy of free trade. Hidwell fur President. CINCINNATI, Juno 20. General John Bid woll, of California, one© a congressman from that state, will be the standard bearer of the national Prohibition party in the coming campaign. When the convention opened here it was apparent that the booin for William Jennings Domorest, of Now York, had bursted, and the Californian's nomination is claimed on the first ballot, if not by acclamation. Domorest had ex pected the support of the New York dele gation, but found on their arrival that he could command the votes of but thirty out of the 110 delegates. For the second place Joshua Levering, a wealthy Baltimore coffee merchant and of local note a philanthropist, is in the lead, with Henry Clay Bascom, of New York, nnd A. A. Stevens, of Pennsylvania, follow ing close behind. Johu Kean, Jr., Ke-Kleotcd Chairman. JERSEY CITY, June 30.—'The New Jersey state Republican committee met at Taylor's hotel and organized for the coming cam paign. John Kean, Jr., of Union, was re elected chairman; E. J. Anderson, vice chairman; John Y. Foster, secretary, and J. J. Toffoy, treasurer. It was decided to locate headquarters at Jersey City. A reso lution was passod indorsing the work of the State League of Republican clubs. The question of calling a state convention was laid over until the next convention, which will be held on July 10. Republicans Will Flglit the Law. NEW YORK, June 28.—The legal battle fchlch the Republicans of this state purpose to wage agaluHt the apportionment bill pawed by the Democratic legislature is tak ing definite form. A committee from the Republican club, with its legal adviser, D. E. Chittenden, a constitutional lawyer of high rank, eailed upon Senator Hiscock at the Fifth Avenue hotel, and he and the commit tee went over the whole legal aspect of the case. Senator Hiscock said that the action would be taken some time before July 11), the final date for redisricting the state. Governor Clinse Renominated. FORT WAYNE, Ind., June 29. —The Repub lican state convention renominated Gov ernor Ira B. Chase on the first ballot. Sen ator Theodore Shockney, of Randolph county, was nominated for lieutenant gov ernor, and Aaron Jones, of St. Joo county, for secretary of state. Piatt anil Miller Win. NEW YORK, June 29.— The Republican state committee re-elected William Brook field chairman and appointed an executive committee overwhelmingly friendly to Miller and Piatt, wUh in turn elected Charles W. Hackett, ft Utica, its director general. Voting but Without Hope. BATON ROUOE, La., June 29. —Tho general assembly voted perfunctorily for United States senator, and will continue to do so daily until the eud of the term. Tho sena tor will not be elected until the next session of the legislature, two years from now. CAMPAIGN OF EDUCATION. Success or the Fight Against Oppressive Tttieu Duo to Newspapers. A little over four years ago, when drover Cleveland sent to congress his now famous tariff reform message, there was no organized agitation against the imposition of the tariff taxes which, even then, beforo the McKinley hill was con cocted, lay with oppressive weight upon nearly every industry and upon nearly every article of general consumption by the people. Here and thero a bold cham pion of fair play raised his voice against the filching system, and there was an undercurrent of resentment against it, but no great manifestation was made. When President Cleveland sent in his plucky challenge to the supjiorters of high taxes and placed himself at the head of the sentiment demanding reform, the situation rapidly began to change, and, as was said at that time, the whole country was transformed into a debuting school. In the progress of the debate since 1888, tho allied forces of monopoly have received some pretty hard knocks and have lost ground steadily. Very much of the success of the fight against oppressive taxes has been dne to the systematic publication of the plain facts about the tariff question. The newspapers have sjioken boldly. Men who had beeu handicapped in their businesses for years by the tariff came out and said so. .When the effect of the high tariff taxes upon different produc tive occupations came to he considered, something like the full effect of such legislation conld he realized. Since 1888, the Reform club of New York has liecn publishing the results of careful investigations as to how far each of the various leading industries of our country have been affected by the tariff laws, and in what manner. Besides explana tions of the interests of the general fanner and laborer, they have published brief essays upon the iron and steel in dustry, copper and brass, coal, salt, dairy farming, wool, gnqies, sugar, pot tery, glass, wall paper, hats, gloves, etc. So far as their means would allow they have distributed, and are still distribut ing, theso all over the United States. They have also carried on an uggressive agitation by means of joint debates, nonpartisan addresses and in other ways. A recent reiiort of tho work of this organization gives details of the Work done In over a dozen states of the Union and their plans for the great con- I st of 1892. LAUNCH _OF_THE TEXAS. The Rig Ruttlesliip Will 110 a Formida ble Foe. NORFOLK, Va., Juno 29.—The battleship Toxas, the first oue of that class in the new navy, was launched at tlio navy yard.

Her armor is a foot thick. The vessel will be lighted through out by electricity and will carry four pow erful search lights, two of which will be foi boat use. She is designed for a flagship and to carry a complement of 308 officers and men. The Peary Party Sails. NEW YORK, June 28.—The steamship Mi randa, of the Red Cross line, with the Peary relief party aboard, sailed from Brooklyn at 4:80 p, m., Monday. Professoi Angelo Heilpriu of the Philadelphia Acad emy of Natural Sciences, who is in charge of the party, is accompanied by Dr. Henry G. Bryant, Philadelphia; Dr. Jackson M.

" THE AMERICAN PEOPLE FAST CE COMINQ A NATION OF "SHAKERS." Sines tho Meltllil.) IJIII Went Into Kf feot the Shoddy ilu.lne.. llu. Ileen Unusually Prosperous—Our Tariff a Godsend to Shoddy filunnfaoturers. There can be little doubt that the American people wear more shoddy than do the people of any other country on the face of the globe. Here are a few of the proofs of this statement: First—According to the census statis tics of 1880 the total amount of raw ma terial consumed in the manufacture of woolen goods was 404,000,000 pounds. After reducing wool to a secured basiß we find that only 118,000,000 pounds of pure wool were consumed. This shows that the composition of woolen goods made in 1880 was 108 parts of adulter ants and 118 parts of pure wool. The census of 1890 shows that the number of pounds of pure wool used had increased to 124,000,000, and of shoddy, cotton and other adulterants from 100,000,000 pounds in 1880 to 154,000,000 pounds in 1890—thus giving a ratio of 43 parts of pure wool to 55 parts of adulterants. Second—Since the McKinley bill went into effect the shoddy business has en joyed an era of unusual prosperity. As an indication of this we quote tho fol lowing under the heading, "Rags, Shod dies, Wastes and Extracts," from The American Wool and Cotton Reporter of May 19,1892: "Now Clips—There lias been a steady curront of business during tho past week and results have been altogether satisfactory. "Merchant tailors' clips, darks and black, are picked up as fast as made. Tho pronounced demand for darks and black worsted, noted last week con tinues. There is more or less inquiry for all the Various grades of new woolen rags. "Woolen Rags—Some dealers aver that they have sold in tho two weeks of May, 1892, within a few hundred dollars of all last May's (1891) sales. In the sale during the past week of red, blue, gray knit there has been no lot up. White linseys have moved well, so has hood stock generally. Dark and light merinos are selling fast. "Shoddies—Business for the iirßt half of May (Monday, 10) has favorably coin pared with last year's record in the same period. There is unmistakably an increased demand for finer stock. "Extracts—Manufacturers in general are having all they can do to fill orders. "Wool Waste—There has been no falling off this month irt this trade. During the past week a good deal of high grade waste has been sold. "Flocks—Business in this line for the month thus far has been quite satis factory." The same indications of the healthy growth of this unhealthful industry are continued in this journal of May 26. while, as usual, there are on the same page over twenty advertisements of shoddy manufacturers. Third—No other country lias a duty on wools that will average 60 or 70 per cent., thus depriving us of tlio purer wool and compelling us to use all kinds of adulter ants—rags, hair, cotton, etc. That our tariff is a godsend to the shoddy manu facturers is testified to by the fact that in 1888, when the Mills hill proposed to give us free wool, soveuteon rag and shoddy dealers signed a circular (used by the Republican national committee) in which they denounced the Mills bill as a free trade measuro and said that free wool would ruin their business. Further testimony comes from the petition of the Kensington Reform club, of Philadel phia (which contains about 250 wool workers), presented to congress April 6, 1892. After asking for free wool to help tlio woolen business and incidentally to provide steadier employment for more labor and to give cheaper clothing to the consumer, they say that the materials of manufacture are deteriorating, and the manufacturers "dare not put their work ingmeu oil the stand to testify under outh, for then tliero would bo a full cor roboration of the statement made to your honorable committee of ways and means by the committee of the Wool Consum ers' association that tlio McKinley law has largely promoted the adulteration of woolen manufactures." Ylllulnous Taxation. In a series of papers I have shown up the hardships that the present villainous tariff imposes on you—a tariff system conceived and enacted during four years of civil war, and which during twenty two years of peace was always altered and amonded in the interest of monopoly and restriction. For more than twenty years the great tariff swindle has boon like an incubus upon this fair land. To the economist it passes all comprehension how the American farmers, whose in dustry, sobriety, intelligence, and I may say religious habits, are the pride and mainstay of this great country, now counting more than 60,000,000, could have for so many years acquiesced and borne the hardship of such a villainous, excessive taxation as our present tariff imposes oil them. Well may the economist stand aghast when he considers how anxious the fann er is to get two or three cents a bushel more for, say, 100 bushels of wheat he has for sale, which at the utmost only amounts to threo dollars difference; anil yet when he has to expend only one quarter of the sum he receives for 100 bushels of wheat in lowa or Kansas say, for instance, eighteen dollars all told—in winter dresses for lit* wife and daughters, he actually pays over eight dollars in taxes on account of the tariff, besides the profit that the several mer chants make on the goods. Of course this is only a single item in the tax list, as I have already shown more in detail how this tax system presses all the farm ing population in every article they have to buy and consume, while tho surplus agricultural products they raise they havo to sell at home at the lowest price prevalent in London and Liverpool.—J. B. Moore's "Friendly Letters to Ameri can Farmers." oiANUING MENACE A Force Hill Lurks Beliiml the Itepub llcan Candidate. There is one question depending on the election of the next president which, in its momentous importance and vital imperativeness, must seem to every phil osophic observer to exceed every other political question that the people are now called upon to determine. All differences of opinion respecting admin istrative reform, or silver coinage, or free trade or protection, or the personal qualities or antecedents of candidates, in short, the whole ordinary array of electoral controversies, are, in compari son, of inferior, indeed of almost trivial, moment. We mean the question whether those southern states which have inherited a negro population surpassing the num ber of their white citizens shall, by federal law and federal military force, be subjected to the political dominations of the negroes, to negro legislatures, negro governors and negro judges in their courts, or whether they shall con tinue to be governed by white men as now. Now it makes no difference who may be the president whom the Republican party elects. That party is by its nature and traditions under the necessity of enacting and executing an election law whose purpose and effect will be to put the negroes in control of several of the southern states. There will be some unwillingness on the part of a patriotic minority among the Republicans who will revolt at the consequences of such a measure, but thoir opposition cannot avail. The necessity of the situation will suppress all such resistance. A force bill is the first, and the inevitable result of a sweeping Republican victory in November. On the other lmnd, and by the nature and necessity of the ideas involved, the success of the Democracy is death to the force bill project. Killed in this election, it can never 1)0 revived. In this, view of the contest, what con scientious Democrat can hesitate alxrat his duty? Botter vote for the liberty and the white government of the south ern states rather than consent to the election of respectable Benjamin Harri son with a force hill in his pocket- New York Sun. The Embodiment of Democracy. From the instant that Mr. Cleveland was declared its nominee by the chair man of our national Democratic conven tion ho ceased to be a private citizen and became the representative and embodi ment of the success and the principles of Democracy, so it is our duty as Demo crats to bury in tho grave of oblivion all past differences, and with a unanimity of purpose and in unbroken ranks bear onward and to victory the banner of onr party. Tho man who Beeks to revive old differences or attempts to create a breach in the Democratic ranks of this or any other state is a traitor to his party nnd an enemy to his people. There are but two parties known in the great contest now upon us. Republicanism, as represented in Benjamin Harrison, and Democracy, as represented in (trover Cleveland.— Columbia (S. C.) Register. Cleveland Can Carry New York. It in almost certain that the candidate of the Democratic party will bo elected. If there is a Democrat living who can carry the state of New York that man is drover Cleveland. As a strong can didate, as a safe candidate, sr a popular candidate, ho was the most available man to he found in the ranks of the Democracy. One thing which the Chicago convention has demonstrated beyond any question is the marvelous popularity of Sir. Cleveland with the voting masses. No ex-president has been so conspicuous a figure as has Mr. Cleveland. No statesman has liven ac corded greater deference by thinking men.—Buffalo Enquirer. The PreHhleut'e A polos;}'. Mr. Harrison made a characteristic speech to the friends who gathered to congratulate him on his nomination. He apologized humbly for not having offices enough to go around among all who had "deserved" them by working for his election, but insisted that he did the best he could. We think the president's apol ogy should be accepted.—Memphis Com mercial (Dem.). Tariff* lt<* for in and Victory. The feature of tho platform which will mark the fighting line of the cam paign is its tariff plank. The nomina- I tiou of Cleveland on this platform draws the issue sharply between the parties. Under the banner of Cleveland and tariff reform the democracy of the na tion, if it opposes a united front to the enemy, will march to certain victory.— Boston Globe. Contributions Thankfully Received. Mr. Harrison's administration bos no rebuke for Mr. Wannmaker'B assaults on civil service reform. Contributions to the campaign corruption fund will be thankfully received in every federal building. Civil service reform, like one cent postage, is only for platforms.— Louisville Courier-Journal. A l'ronilhlng Outlook. Today no true Democrat can say that a different result in Chicago would have been hotter for tho party.
