Wonder what they will do in the national cam paign next year? I'Kk'llAPS there never was a state contest, which occupied the attention of the whole country, as is the present campaign in Ohio. It is specially interesting because of the important national question nt issue, and consequently its bc-or-ing upon the election of 1SVJ. Now that the republican adminis tration has succeeded in opening the way for American pork into the markets of Germany, the press is a unit in urging similiar negotiations with France; and it is our predic tion that, in the near future, we shall be permitted to chronicle a treaty to that efiect. ANYTHING TO BEAT McKINLEY Tbos. II. Dudley, who for twelve year;", was consul to Liverpool, has just returned from a trip to Kng- land. Mr. Dudley was present at a meeting of the Cobdcu club, and a resolution was adopted to the effect that what power they could exert be to defeat McKinley. He says that fl,0U0,(JiJ0can readily be raised for campaign funds. We here bave another proof that Great Hritain.thnuicrh her agents is active concerning her beM inte- rests. It is her desire that history will be repeated -a revenue tarilf be adopted and our manufacturers be placed on a level with hers, thus rendering our labor equal to hers. She knows that in the past she ha froze us out and made us depend ent upon her, and she hopes to do so again. It is gratifying to know, howevrr, "that Americans reali.e that this country is for the benelil of American first. The vote of Ohio, Mr. Cobden club, lealize who their friend are. Spend your money buying votes if you like, but Ohio i for McKinley. protection and reciprocity. FAVORS CORPORATIONS Rev. Sam Jones, the great revival iat, ha published a letter, which is beingcommented upon by tbe press quite generally, in regard to legis lating against corporations, particu larly railroad. Mr. Jones take the ground that corporation should be allowed to take their course, ami conveys Ihe idea that if let alone they will look m'iri' the iiitrrczisu! thepeoplc. !!o ulso defend the standard oil and ntiar trusts, Rw-riiiig tlia tliccon simier was furnished a betterarticle at a less price when thee monnx lies e xistetl than at any other period in our history. Mr. Jones may preach Hiircess fuily, but it is our bumble opinion that lie is a little "rusty" concerning political question.- It is evident, at any rate, that the reverend gentle man is not a candidate for ollice at the hands of the people whom be atldresses. In the first place, the managers of rrtiiiorid Miid oi'it r lorjM. rations arc human; and it is a well recog nized fact tbut it is in accordance with human nature for men to use all means, that may in any sense be considered honor able, to acquire wealth ami power. And while THE 1 1 K K A I.l believes t hid railroads and other corporation) have done a great work for this country, and should yet be encouraged to do more, we are aware, ana any who have become informed on the subject cannot fail to know, that they oftentimes not only take ad' vantage of the people by way that may, in a sense, be classed an hon orable, bi4 they also overstep the bound of reason tit times and nre not content until they secure the lion's share. Yes, corporations, since they nre created by the state, should be con trolled by the state, and while per mitted to net II profitable income they should be kept with in reason able bound. As far a monopolies are concerned, Ibey are wrong in every instance, mid cannot fail to work great injustice to all classesof people. Any move that place the power in the baud of one company to the exclusion of nil others, or, in other words, any move that hinders fn e competition in any line of in dustry i contrary to the princi ple upon which our government wa founded and i repugnant to one' true senae of honor.
