NATIONAL REPUBLICAN TICKET.
FOK I'RESI DENT,
BENJAMIN HARIIISON,
of Indiana.
Foil VICE PRESIDENT,
LEVI P. MOItTON,
of New York.
W II ATS THE USE.
"When I nni convinced that a party is
consistent which favors a protective duty
and at the same time docs not protest
against European cheap labor coming to
this" country and competing with our
American workingmen, I shall vote the
Republican ticket," said a democrat in
our hearing the other day. To reason
with that democrat is a thankless task.
In the first place, he knows a democratic
administration has been in power in the
country since March, 1883, and that sun
dry messages have been delivered by the
democratic president, Mr. Cleveland, on
the state of the country. That volumi
nous labor statistics, as required by law,
repeatedly prepared and placed in the
hands of the Hpeater of the House of
Representatives, Mr. CartUIe, and for the
express use of the democratic majority in
the House of Commons. That the most
exhaustive strikes, dangerous labor dis
turbances, this country has ever exper
ienced have occurred during the past four
years. That communism and anarchy
have emphasized their dangerous presence
ia this country, during the existence of
Cleveland's administration, ia 3 manner
that ha attracted the attention and com
ment of the civilized world, and that
even the death penalty has been visited
upon the heads of some of the leaders
of the anarchist societies of this country
by the authorities ot the great state of
Illinois; yet, knowing all of these facts,
not a recommendation has come from
Mr. Cleveland, no party measure has been
proposed by the democratic majority in
Congress looking towards the restriction
of foreign emmigration to our shores;
howling against the Chinaman, who nev
er proposes to become a citizen of the
republic, is the whole democratic stock in
trade, in regard to foreign cheap labor;
ia thin there is no foreign vote to offend,
bat, rather a prejudice to be pandered to;
hence, the Chinaman pilloried by every
cheap politician; yet, not a word against
the dangerous classes who are dajly
swelling the volume of our voting pop
ulation. Knowing all this, our demo
cratic friend indulged in imprecations
against a party not in power, as an ar
gument in favor of a party ia pywer
difectly chargeable with derelication of
duty, in this respect. In view of this
fact, we sav, it is evidently a work of
supererrogatiou to 6hov such a partisan,
the falacy and error of his position.
To ask him what the difference would
be to keep the cheap labor out of the
country and admit the cheap results of
that labor without restriction would per
haps be useless. To ask him who would
le benefited by such a policy would
also be useless, because he is engaged in
supporting the democratic position on
the industrial question and not in trying
to arrive at the truth of the question in
its application to the laboring man. Our
friend knows that the direct way to have
cheap goods in this country is to reduce
wages; everyone knows this; yet, it seems
to reason with such partisans.
These fellows will not stop and exam
ine the physical fwt, that the necessaries
of life are as cheap in this country; while
the social condition of the working man
is immeasurably above and his wages al
most double, that of his brother in free
trade England; they rush over these
known facts to grasp at the theoretical
fnlacies of the free trade doctrinaire who
tickles the car with his "robber tax"
cry. That the man who votes the demo
cratic ticket votes to have lower
wajjes
in this country is a fact, among
ble men, leyond dispute.
reasona-
If anyone wanted to hear of a stark
case of free trade lunacy just red the
purported editorial in last evenings Jour
nal, which is in fact a plagerism from
the free trade literature now iu circula
tion by the Cobden bureau of America.
John C. Calhoun came very near being
hanged for insisting upon nullification
of tho laws of the country because he
claimed that the cotton producing sec
tion of the south had a right to do
with the industial policy of this nation
u it pleaded. The man who could pen
1
the article entitled "A Riot on Civiliza
tion" and then assure his readers that he
and Ids party arc not for free trade, also
noi in favor of repealing such "robbery"
laws, is cither very dishonest or very lazy.
It is the stale free trade falshood over
and over again that the tariff duty is a
tax; this is not true and like the ignorant
blunder of Grovcr Cleveland in his mes
sage, that the consumer pays the market
price of the article with the duty added,
it is too silly to need reputation What
a pretty picture the poor old democratic
party would cut before the people if such
an absurdity was true with rice at 100
and sugar at 40 cents duty and wool on
the free list. Such arguments break
down with the weight of their assertion.
Ocit democratic neighbors are borrow
ing trouble over the Blaine reception;
they report dissatisfaction among the re
publicans over the magnificent manner in
which Mr. Blame was received. Never
mind gentlemen! The republicans are
managing that side of the affair; the
stry is so exceedingly gauzy it shows
the democratic liar white with fear right
behind it. Just read Mr. Blaine's
speeches; ju&t gaze on the thousands of
working men who crowded to the cars to
hear him, as he flew through the little
manufacturing state of Connecticut and
stopped off at Boston. Sir. Blaine is here
and his mission is not to stir up strife
among republicans but to show up the
poor old party of low wages which is
managing the affairs of this country; and
from the manner in which he has started
out he is quite likely to keep the old con
cern on the run until there will not be
enougli of It lefp 0 make a good shadow
November next.
Will our democratic friends please
read this statement from the Omaha lie
publican which brings out the national
feature of the "revune reform" the north
ern dough-face editor is so fast to recom
mend to his readers. It speaks for itself
in a language frightfully plain, like that
of '' truthful James." Look at the facts:
From beginning t,o cd the Mills bill is
a sectional measure, but i,t contaiiia no
more glaring evidence of that fa'c.t .than
the provision which admits cotton ties
without a duty and places a fluty pf $6
per ton on pig Iron, the raw materia, frpm
which the ties are made.
This is the democratic way of protect
ing American labor reversing the tariff
and giyiner the protection to foreign
workmen i
Every laboring man, w k Tvjll
see the point, and understand why it is
done. It gives the cotton planters the
bengt of cheap labor of the old world
by taking ic tvfcy from the workingmen
of the United States. fi pourse, under
sucli a law, not a cotton tie woutj
made in this conutrv.

The jCjrpjjmstanccs will not have been
forgotten that Wis h'fVr was drafted by
the democratic members of the coi-:;;ittee,
behind locked doors. No repnidicaii,
whether or not a member of the commit
tee, was permitted to s;e t. Who was

Five of eight in the confederate army,
fighting for a constitution wtiicL ;Jeclar-
ed that no duties should evtr be levied
upon imports, and six of eight represent
ing the solid south, and yet. in the face
of these facts and many others of like
sort, democratic newspapers have the as
surance to deny that the Mills bill is eith
er free trade or sectional in its character.
They will have a hard time convincing
the intelligent workingmen.
Wales tut a JiJjjpre,
Many anecdotes are current of t'aa Ph,e
of Wales' recent visit to Cambridge univer
sity. It is said that the vice chancellor, h'uo
isftldo master of St. John's, sent for tho col

tion was to come off, and told hin to prepare
the best menu his genius would enable him
to draw up. The cook sent in a card with
eighteen courses, which was sent to the
prince's secretary with the request that he
would show it to the prince. The story runs

FOREIGN RELATIONS.
The conduct of foreign affairs by the piesent
administration has been distinguished by inef
ficiency and cowardice. Having withdrawn
from I he senate all pending treaties effected
by republican administrators for the removal
of foreign burdens and restrictions upon our
comiiieice and for its extension into a better
market, H has neither affected uor proposed
any others in their stead. Professing adher
ence to the Monroe doctrine, it has seen with
idle complacency the extension of foreign in
fluence In Central America and of foreign trade'
everywhere among our neighbors. It has re
fused to charter, sanction or encourage any
American orgaulzytion for constructing the
Nicaragua canal, a work of vtal Importance to
the maintenance ot the Monroe doctrine and
of our national influence In Central and South
America, and uecesmary fof the development
of trade witli out Pacific territory, with South
America, and with tiie further coasts pf tiie
Pacific Ocean.
FISHERIES QL'ESTIOX.
We arraign the present democratic adminis

of the fisheries question, and its pusillanimous
surrender of all privileges to which our fishery
vessels are en tiied in Canadian ports under
the treaty of lsjs, the reciprocate mariu
tine legislation of ls.30 and comity of nations,
and which Canadian lishing vessels receive in
the ports of the L'uited Ktaten. We condemn
the policy of the present administration and
the democratic majority in congress towards
our fisheries as unfriendly and consplctouly
unpatriotic and as tending to destroy a valuable
national industry and an indispensible resource
of defense against foreign enemy.
The name of American applies alike to all
