Chicago Irishmen.)
It is a pitiable sight to witness the
New York "Wump' gasping for breath
since the "setting down act" in the very
recent Hill convention at Buffalo. The
"Mug" is gone and the "Wump" is simp
ly palpitating. It didn't know it wa?
loaded.
The contrast between the republican
and democratic nominees and their man
ner of conducting the campaign is a
comforting sight to republican, but the
mugwump who banks entirely on respec
tability is the fellow who suffers most
over the matter poor lost mugwump.
Gen. Harrison! condemnation of
trusts is clear, vigorous and unmistaka
ble. It is also republican. The republi
can national platform denounces trusts.
There have been bills passed by republi
can congresses to destroy them, and the
republican masses demand that they be
stamped out, even if the democratic
party is destroyed.
The democracy in its '84 national
platform declared that the ''internal rev
enue tax is a war tax." The President
in his letter of acceptance protests
against its repeal. Poor old dishonest
democracy! You would not and could
not be democracy without stultifying
your record at each cross road upon the
long broad lane of American politics.
Levi P. Morton, like Grover Cleve

committee, 3Ir. Morton's cheek for
twelve thousand dollars goes to assist the

The congressional convention which
meets at Lincoln Thursday of this week
to name the next congressman from this
district, is attracting much attention.
Jndge Chapman is mentioned generally
and favorably throughout the southern
portion of the district, but we understand
that it is yet doubtful whether he permits
his name to be used in the convention as
it is a position: he has not sougnt at this

GEN. HARRISON TO THS WORK
ING MEN.
Indianapolis, Ind.. Sep. 15. The
delegation from New Albany and Floyd
County, over a thousand in number, was
the second to pay its respects to General
Harrison today. Their spokesman was
James Atkinson, a glass-blower at the
Oupaw Glass Works, who spoke at some
length, touching wages and tariff.
General Harrison replied as follows:
My fellow citizens: There is something
very distinctive, very interesting, and
very instructive in this large delegation
of workingmen from the city of New
Albany. Your fellow workman and
spokesman has so eloquently presented
that particular issue upon which you
have the greatest interest, that I can add
nothing to the force or conclusiveness of
his argument. He has said that the in
terests of the workingmen were especially
involved in the pending political contest.
I think that it is conceded even by our
political opponents. I do not think there
is a man so dull or 6o unfair as to deny
that the reduction of our tariff rates so
as to destroy the principle of protection
now embodied in our laws will have an
influence on your wages and on the pro
duction of your mills and factories. If
this bo true, then your interests in the
question is apparent. You will want to
know whether the influence of the pro
posed reduction of rates is to be benefic
ial or hurtful: whether the effect will be
to stimulate, or
diminish production;
whether it will be to maintain or increase
the rate of wages you are now receiviii-',
or to reduce them. As you shall settle
these questions, so will you vote in
November. Applause.
No man can doubt that a reduction of
duties will stimulate the importation of
foreign merchandise. None of these
plate-glass workers can doubt that a re
duction of the duty upon plate glass will
increase the importation of French p'ate
glass. None of these workers in your
woolen mills can doubt that the reduc
tion of the duty upon the product of their
mills will increase the importation of
foreign woolen mills. And il that is
true, is it not also clear that this increas
ed importation of foreign-made goods
mean? som idle workmen in your mills?
The party that favors such discriminat
ing duties as will develop American pro
duction and secure the largest amount of
work for our American shops is the par
ty whose policy will promote your inter
ests. Applause and cries of "Hit him
again." I have heard it said by some
leaders of democratic thought that the
reduction proposed by the Mills bill, and
the further reduction which some are
candid enough to admit that they con
template, will stimulate American pro
duction by opening foreign markets, and
that the interests of our Indiana manu
facturing establishments would thus be
promoted. But those who advance this
argument .also say that it will not do to
progress too rapidly in the direction of
free trade; that we must go slowly because
our protected industries can not stand
TOO ItAI'HJ AS APVANCE;
:t would not be safe. Laughter. Now,
:ny countrymen, if this plan of revenue
reform is to be promotive of our manu
facturing interests why go slowly?
Why not ope. tje jjates wide and let us
have the promised good all at once?
Laughter and applause. Is it that these
philosophers think that the cup of pros
perity will be so sweet and full that our
laboring people can not be allowed to
drink it at one draught ? Applause, and
cries of "Good, good." No my country
men, this statement implies what these
gentlemen know to be true, that the ef
fect of the proposed legislation is dimin
ished production and diminished wages,
and they desire that you shall have an
opportunity to get used to it. Applause.
But I can not press this discussion further.
I want to thauk you for the cordial
things you have said to me by him who
has spoken for you. I trust, and have
always trusted, the intelligence and the
conscience of our working people. Ap
plause They will inevitably find out
the truth and when they nod it, ibey will
justify it. Therefore, there are many
things that have been said to which I have
not and shall not allude while this con
test is on. They are with vou: the truth
is accessible to you and you will find it.
Now, thanking you i,,usf heartily for the
personal respect you have evidenced.
and congratulating you upon your intel
ligent devotion to that great American
system which t.a; sjjread a sky of hope
above you and your children, I bid yoa
good-bye. Cheers.

TIu president protests against "Servile
immigration." What does he mean by
the term asks the Chicago Tribune.
Perhaps some of our Nebraska exchanges,
who worship at the shrine of Grover can
explain this singular phrase. Tlie Chica
go Tribune, which lrs been quoted as
democratic authority right along, iuter
pets it to bo nothing more nor less than
knownothiugism. We are more charita
ble, we don't believe the writer kntw,
himself, what it meant nor how redjeu-
lous it sounds and reads.
GENERAL HARRISON TO THE
IRISHMEN OF CHICAGO.
Mr. Beggs and my friends of the Irish
American Republican Club of Cook
County, Illinois: You were Irishmen,
you are Americans cheers Irish-Americans
continued cheers. And though
you have given the consecrated loyalty of
your honest hearts to the stary Hag and
your adopted country, you have not, and
ought not to forget to love and venerate
the land of your birth. Great applause.
If you could forget Ireland, if you could
be unmoved by her ministry, untouched
by the appeals of hci splendid oratory,
unsympathetic with her heroes and mar
tyrs; I thould fear that the bonds of your
new citizenship would have no power
over hearts so cold and consciences so
dead. Cheering. What if a sprig of
green was found on the bloody jacket of
a union soldier who lay dead on Mission
ary Ridge. The Hag he died for was his
flag, and the green was only a memory
and an inspiration. We, native oi Irish
born, join with the republican convention
pi the hope that the cause of Irish home
rule, progressing under the leadership of
Gladstone ami Parnell cheers upon
peaceful and lawful lines may yet secure
for Ireland fiat which, as Americans, we
so much value local home rule. Con
tinued applause.-
I am sure that you have, in your own
persons, or in those of your worthy repre
sentatives, given such convincing evi
dence OK YOUR DEVOTION
to the American constitution and flag,
and to American institutions, will not
falter in this great civil contest, which
your spokesman has so fittingly describ
ed. Who, if not Irish-Americans, versed
in the sad history of the commercial ruin
of the island they love, should be in
structed in the beneficient influence of n
protective tariff ? Long and continued
cheering. Who, if not Irish-Americans,
should be able to appreciate the friendly
influences of the protective system upon
their individual and upon their home
lives? Applause. Which of you has
not realized that not the lot of man only,
but the lot of woman hat been made eas
ier and softer under its influence ! Ap
plause and "Hear"" "Hear!" and "That's
whats the matter." Contrast the Amer
ican mother and wife, burdened only
with the cares of motherhood and of the
household, with the condition of women
in many of tlie countries of the Old
World where she Is loaded also with the
drudgery of td in the field. Applause.
I know that none more than Irishmen
who are so characterized by their defer
ence for women and whose women have
so finely illustrated that which is pure in
female. character, will value this illustra
tion of the good effects of our American
system upon the home life. Long con
tinued applause. There are nations
across the ocean who are hungry for the
American market. Cries of "You bet
they are," and "That's right," and "They
won't get them." They are waiting with
eager expectation for the adoption of a
free trade policy by the Uuitcd States.
Cries of "That will never happen." The
English manufacturer is persuaded that
an increased
MARKET FOR ENGLISH OOODtt
in America is good for him, but I think
it will be impossible to persuade the Am
erican producer, or the American work
man, that it is good for him. Loud ap
plause and cries of ''That ?3 ijght " I
believe that social order, that national
prosperity, are bound up n the preserva
tion of our existing policy. Loud cheers
and cries of "You are right." I do not
believe that a republic can live and pros
per, whose wage-earners do not earn
enough to make life comfortable, who
do not haye some upward avenues of
hope open before them. When the wage
earners of a land losa hope, when the
star goes out, social order is imppossiblc,
and after that anarchy or the czar.
Cheering and tries of ' !-h.itis it.'
Ali.en (Jr. TnrioiAN's efforts as a
sprightly campaigner has resulted some
what disastrously to himself and party at
large. Tip; little journey from Ohio to
New yprl,: so used the old Pomaii up
that he failed when he endeavored to
speak to the thousands who had assem
bled to do him honor. From the plat
form he was borne to his bed, was at
tended all night by physicians and the
next d:jy hurried to is home where in
peace he could pass his last few days on
earth. No better exemplifications of
his case was ever had than in the follow
ing lines, "Pity the sorrows of a poor old
mau, wiGSe trembling limbs have borne
him to our door." All idea of further
speech-making on his part has been aban
doned and the old man's sorrows will be
pitied and he will kindjy be permitted
to stay at home. Arizona Citiz-n.
Wk publish today Qen, Harrison's little
address to the republican Irish organisa
tions of Chicago which, called on him
Friday Inst at Indianapolis, It is a "gem
from either a political or literary stand
point. Mr. Harrison has proved himself
as an advocate of republican doctrines
the equal of Mr. Blaine in this campaign
and it is with prida that republicans
point to the utterances of their candidate.
ELECT HARRISON FIRST.
Hon. Kuute Nelson says that "it is the
duty of the republicans to elect Harrison
this year and strike for tariff reform nf
terward. Mr. .Nelson wus one of the
three republicans who voted in favor of
the Mills' bill. However, his declaration
is worthy of the consideration of all re
publicans, whatever may be their views
on the tariff question. Elect Harrison first
and then attend to the tariff afterward.
Of course, the success of Harrison would
be a comparatively barren triumph for
the republicans without the election of a
majority of the house of representatives,
1 hat body has been controlled by the
democrats since 1 88'J, and in that period
no tariff reform has been made, nor, in
deed, has any been attempted. The
measures which were prepared by Mr.
Morrison, like that which was framed
this year by Mr. Mills, would, if enacted,
destroy instead of reform or revise. The
experience of a third of a century, has
proven that the only party capable of
dealing wisely with the tariff question is
the republican party. It is unreasonable
to hope for any sensible scheme of tariff
reform until the republicans are placed
again in power not only in the executive
branch of the government, but in the
popular branch of congress.
No republican pretends that the pres
ent tarnr is periect. iUistalves were
made in its construction, and the
changes in industrial conditions which
have occuned since it was enacted
have revealed irregularities and inequali
ties in it which should be corrected
Treasury rulings, too, which are made
possible by the vagueness or want of pre
cision in certain parts of the present law,
have defeated the purpose of its framcrs
and discriminated unduly against some
industries. A large portion of the act
should be revised so as to bring it ia har
mony with the altered conditions in many
important industries which the past live
or six years have brought about. The act
should be shortened and simplified. Ad
valorem duties ought to give place to
specific duties wherever practicable. In
some instances duties could be lowered to
advantage, in others they should be
raised. Most of the dutiable articles not
produced in this country, except luxu
ries, could be placed on the free list. In
fact a general overhauling of the tariff is
needed, but it should be done by protec
tionists, and be prosecuted on protection
ist lines. Mr. Nelson's advice i3 good.
Let every friend of the American indus
trial system work for the election of Har
rison this year, "and strike for tariff re
form afterward." But let them see to it
that the republicans are placed in control
in congress alo, without which tariff
reform worthy of the name is impossible.
Globe Democrat.
Mr. Blaine is a very bad man! Maine
is a very bad state! The people, in fact,
are very ignorant ia Oregon, Vermont,
and Maine! When you desire enlighten
ment on the great industrial question,
you must steer clear of the ignorant
working man; the knighted, skilled la
bor of the factory; the fellow who beards
sheep on the great American commons,
and hasn't time to read Cobden litera
ture; the Irishman who doesn't know
that Johnny Bull is anxious for Pat's
welefare in America; the foreign laborer
who comes to this country to selfishly
better his personal condition and that of
his family. These people can't under
stand the great and gionous underlaying
principles of freetrader?). You must go
to tlie solid south, where labor is digni
fied! where the school house has not
poisoned the plebian mind; where the
ballot bcx is zealously guarded with the
shot gun! I'here yoii will find lofty
minds and philanthropic spirits, who
look beyond the glitter of a days good
wages to the world's markets of cheap
fabrics and low wages, and if you can
not find a high enough grade qf intelli
gence llero, pi the tiotid South, go
farther, cross the ocean to old England,
where everything is iSnglish, you know.
There you will find the philosopher and
statesman hand in hand spending their
time and their gold to evangelize thi
benightened laud of tle brother
Jonathan,
Political triganometry in national
politics by the man who is figuring for
the great office of President of tliesu
United States is a very dangerous busi
ness. The retaliation message, the Chi
nese bill, the delayed letter of accept
ance, are all political tricks and blund
ers which have simply brought the ad
ministration into increased ridicule. It
is the pd manevour of he ais in the
lion's skin.
No man can doubt that a reduction of
dutjes will stimulate tlie importation of
foreign merchandise and if
that is true is it not als clear that this
Increased Importation qf foreign made
goods means some idle workmen in your
mills The Jjarty that favors such dis
criminating duties as will develop Amer
lean production and secure the largest
amount of work for our American shops
is the party whose policy wiil promote
your interests. (Gen. Harrison to the
Voi kingmen. )
CIVIL SERVICE HUMBUG.
The spectacle of the president of the
L'nited States contributing to the cam
paign fund to si cure his own election,
and advertising tlu contribution, is a
sad commentary on the florid essays that
have been written by mugwumps and
independents in prai.-e of Mr. Cleveland's
high notions about the public service:
but, to the honest civil service reformer
there is a deeper uieiiniiig on the pait of i
Mr. Cleveland, than the simple proposi- I
tion to aid and assist t)K. democratic par
ty, and himself, into oilic-j by the use of
money, lie has said with pompous high
sounding phrase, time and again, that t lie
public service must be kept above the
level of partisan politics and that contri
butions and assessments should not be
levied upon the office-holder. Yet,
here is this pretender to public virtue
saying, by virtue of his high office, to
each employe of the government, " You
must contribute." Wow does he say it ?
Why, by publically setting tlie example
and contributing a fourth of Iris annual
salary. It means that employes are ex
pected to subscribe, and no ollice-hol ler
will fail to recognize the presidential tip.
Neither will the Wiggins and Gormans
of democratic politics longer hesitate to
take the federal oilice holder by the
throat and demand his money or his po
sition. For down right dishonesty in
political matters Grover Cleveland is en
titled to the belt.
GENERAL HARRISON'S LETTER
OF ACCEPTANCE.
In view of his model letter of accept
ance the republican party may well be
proud of their candidate. A modest,
sensible document making uo plea foi
votes, not attempting to please anybody
but tlie great republican constituency it
presents the republican side of the issues
of the day so clearly that the humblest
citizen may understand as he reads. It is
a genuine republican document, and will
commend itself to a very wide approval
though our railroad friend who was so
delighted with the "English" of Mr.
Cleveland's letter Mud nothing of that in
this. It is American through and through
and the American people in November
will plant their big American feet upon
it, as their platform, with a majority be
fore unknown in this country. Bee.
ENOUGH OF FREE-TRADE.
A trades congress was held at Brad
ford, England, last week. The president
Mr Shipton, bitterly denounced the free
traders, who advised buying in the
cheapest markets iirispcctive of conse
quences to the wo:kmen. If absolute
and unconditional cheapness was right,
he said, then by all means import Chinese
and encourage the sweating system.
Count Mitkiewicz, who is thoroughly
informed as to China, i. reported to
scout the idea that China has rejected
the new treaty wUh America. In his
opinion China favors the- treaty restrict
ing the emigration of Chinese to the
United States because China docs not
favor emigration. For that reason China
would accept the treaty, since it would
affect English intejv.ttg i,t I long Kong
and Canton and not its own. The atti
tude of congress on the Cnina question
has b 'en taken advantage of by the Eng
lish to further their own ends. It is
evidently an English trick to spread
abroad the rumor tlnd Ch'na rejected the
treaty with tlie view that hostile, legislu
tion would shako the friendly rel Hiions
beiwecu China and the United States.
This would allow the British to take
away the Chinese tra.le from this coun
try, and to kill the project of ' building
Americaq yiUoWa m that empire.
Should it turn out to be true that China
has not rejected the treaty, the suspicious
of British interference in our relations
with China would be strongly coqforred.
- Bee.
The pledges contained in the platform
of the democratic national convention
insure good government. So says Presi
dent Cleveland. But every man with a
head on his shoulders knows better,
Pledges insure nothing. Talk is cheap,
especially in a democratic conven.ion.
The democracy always was good at mak
ing pledges. But only performances
count. And democratic performances
give the lie to democraii it pledges.
The old Itoman is r, living mad since
his arrival home and Iris discovery that
he is .simply the jumping jack for Grover
Cleveland's circus. The old gentleman
swears roundly that Mr. Cleveland can
take care of his own state of New York
or it may go to the "bow; wows." That
was a great hoop-la Sw ing of tlie old
Roman and the absurdity of the affair
unfortunately dawns on his intellect after
the cramp colic has loosened its grip on
his diaphrasm.
A Craveyard Ccuh.
The shorty dry. hacking couyh, which
announces the. approach of consumption,
has been aptly termed h graveyard cough.
The perial is great, and near at hand, but
it can be surely averted with Dr. Pi. ice's
Golden Medical Discovery, a botanic
remedy, without a p.-er fur pulmonary,
throat anl liver afl.-ctions, and for all
ailments which like consumption, has a
scrofulous or gin, and also for eruptions
and sores, indicating impurity of the
blood. Druggists all sell it.
THE PUBLIC SCHOOLS.

Prof. Drumniond has been very busy
arranging matters to the best possible in
terest of the sihools His ability in that
line is well known, and under his careful
leadership, assisted bj'his excellent orps
of leaclh.rs, there can be no doubt of suc
cess. We began cur visit to the schools this
morning by calling at the first ward
school where we found Miss Hattie La
throj) presiding as substitute over the first
primary, and had 4-1 pupils in attendance.
The second primary is in charge af Miss
Katie Oliver, who has an enrolciiK nt of
Hi; another class, however, is to be ad

the number considerably.
Miss Fulnier is teaching the second
ward school and had 45 pupils this morn

faces. West third ward is taught by
Miss Lou Sampson, who has 40 pupils,
ranging in age from six to ten. Miss
Sampson informed us that her schol.ua
were mostly Bohemians and that they
were very orderly as well as apt scholars.
At the west fourth ward the schools
are taaght by Miss Carrie HoFoway, 1st
primary; and Miss Kiddie, 2nd primary;
both teachers of experience. Hiss Hoi
loway had 44, and Miss Kiddie 2.1 schol
ars. The cast fourth ward is entering mi
its second year under the control of Miss
Etta Shepard, first primary, who had '51
pupils, and Miss Cora Woodroc with 2f)
pupils, in 2nd primary.
At the high school we found thefchol
ars ail taking an interest in the opening
of the year's work, and the teachers busy
arranging their classes and getting mat
tcrs in proper shape for tlnir duties.
Our first call here was ot room 1 where
Miss Edith Hanna presides over 'JO bright
looking pupils. Miss Hanna is recently
from Genese, 111., and expressed herself
as pleased with her school and surround
ings. Miss Anna Murphy was found in
room 2 with the 4th and 3th grades in
charge. There were 2.i in attendance.
II om 15, first primary, is taught by Miss.
Gertie Kerney, where we found every
seat occupied, there being fiO in. attend

Miss G. has also taught six years in the
Plattsmouth schools. Boom 15, Miss
Wiles, Seh grade, 22 scholars. This is
Miss Wiles' fifth year in our city schools.
The high school proper, is in charge of
Mr. George Chatburn, Supt., and for tho
present, Miss. Graves, of Iowa City, will
ass:ut him. We found that they were
organizing this forenoon and by tomor
row will be ready for regular work-.
They have 50 students in attendance.
Much credit is due to Mr. D. K. Barr,
the janitor, and to the school board for
the improvement about the grounds of
the high school building, new fences, and
sidewalks have been built and the
grounds seeded down ai d cleared up
generally, giving it a mat and tasty ap
pearance. Mr- Barr informed us" that
they had recently purchased two new
Dorience rocking grates, to be used in
the boiler; it will save in the expense of
fuel from $200 to $:;00 annually. The
new boiler room, a rcuch needed
improvement will soon be completed.
All the school yards in the city haves
been treated to new fences and sidewalks, '
