'ovv. gentlemen, what Is lo become af ter the .McKinley law is repealed? If you vote the Deinocralic ticket and adopt as your policv the platform at Chicago you inust adopt a tariff system which has no element of protection in it. Tney adopt a tariff system which lakes no a-eountof ti countries more confident were the prophesies of an early victory: but we see now. ' This is not a tree trader from Wis. cousin or Chicago testifying. t is Lord Salisbury, until recently the premier of Ureal lintaiii. 'We see now after many years' exper ience that explains it, how many foreign nations are raising one after another a wall, a brazen wall of protection around their stores which excludes us lrom their markets, and as far as they are concerned iln their best to Kill our trade. And this slate of tilings does not get better. On the contrary, it constantly seems to get win sc. Now, of course, if I utter a word with reference to tree trade 1 shall be ac cused ot being a protectionist, of a desire to overthrow free trade and of all the elhercriines which an ingenius imagina tion can attach to the commercial hetero doxy. If we look abroad into the world we see it. In the olliee which 1 have the minor lo hold 1 see a great deal of it. We live in an age of a war of tariffs. Kvery nation is trying liovv it can by agreement Willi its neighbors ge: Ihe greatest possible proportion for its own industries and at Hie same time the greatest possible access to the markets of its neighbors. This kind of negotiation is continually going on. or has been going on, for the last year and a half with great activity. I want to point out. to you vv h.it I observe is that while A is very anxious to get favors of (', nobody cares two straw s about getting the com mercial fav ors of Ureal Britain. What is the reason of that? It is lliat in this great battle (ircat Hnlain has deliberately stripped herself of the armour and the weapons by which the battle is to he fought." And thereupon he proposes that Kngland shall use Hie weapons which the I nited states lias been using, not against ihe I'nited States, he says, because they must, have iu Kngland our raw material and our food products. If there ever was a tri.mte which ought to add weight to the reciprocity scheme, and the tariff scheme too, of the llepublican t arty, it is that. BLAINE ON THE ISSUES. OK INTKIJ tJST CAMPAIGN. Strong Letter Addressed to Chairman Vlanley on Hie Political Ouestions or the Day The History.,! Itecifirocity Democracy au l the Currency. -jIwtkta. Sept. . -James .

My 1)k ar Sih: Not being able, for the reasons which I have explained to you, lo deliver public speeches in this present campaign, I takethe liberty of sub- uniiing my views on me issues wnieii l re gard as being strongest for the Republicans to urge before the people. The issue of the greatest consequence is the tariff on imports, and it will continue to be until a settlement is effected by a majority so large that it will he tantamount to general aeiiniesence. i no licpuuiicans are. ag gressive on this suhject. Two years ago they passed a general enactment known us the McKinley tariff, which for a time failed to meet with populat approval, and was regarded with a certain degree of dis trust by those who had always upheld tne protective system, lint a powerful reac tion has come m consequence of the vindi cation of the McKinley tariff by exper ience. It is found to have worked admira bly, and within the last year has produced a greater volume of business, internal and external, export and iniort, than the I'nited States ever transacted before. Notwithstanding Ihe character and extent of the opposilion to it. agriculture is re munerative, manufactures are prosperous and commerce is more flourishing than at any previous time thus vindicating the McKinley tariff hy an impressive and un deniable series of facts. Against this tariff the Democratic, party have taken a posi tion almost without parallel in the history of liie country. They reject entirely the doctrine of protection, pronounce it a fraud and anathematize it generally. A resolution to this effect was adopted by tiie Democratic convention against the report of the committee ou resolutions by a two thirds vote, tuns manitesting the intelli gent participation of every man in the convention. Sometimes a resolution may be adopted in haste, or just when the con vention is adjourning it may fail lo receive the attention of the members, but this reso lution was debated, pro and eon. adopted aft r a contest, and was perfectly under stood by Hie members of the convention. It is contained in these words: "We denounce the. Kepublican protection as a fraud upon the labor ot the great ma nor industries, which takes no account of : rjty 0f the American people for the beno our labor. Labor in Kngland on the aver- ;itofJHj,.w.

KXI'I.AINH TI!K KLC'IPKOCITT MHEVIK. When the principle of reciprocal trade was tirst proposed to be introduced into I the tariff system, the Democrats showed a i most generous appreciation of the que.s- uou,anugave it their sujqiort as long as Hcpublicans refused to accept it, but when Ifeuublicans came to approve of it the Ueuioeratle sunoort vanished, and instead or ravoring, we, mid the Democratic na tional coiiveniion passing a resolution lios tile to Ihe system, liui in spite of Demo cratic opposition we have attained, through reciprocity, a new and valuable trade, and Ihe system has demonstrated its many ad vantages. e weie about to declare sugar, molasses, coffee and hides free from all dulies iu the McKinley bill, but instead oi uiai we passed a Jaw by which we asked the several nations interested what tl.ey would give to have those. articles made free. e found ihat the privileges which we were about to give, without cost and without charge, would secure a large trade in lirazil, in Cuba, and l'orto Kieo, in the Windward and the Leeward Is lands, in liritisliUuayanaand Jamaica. San Domingo, and the live Central American states, and to a minor degree in Austria, Franco, and Germany all in exchange for the article.! which we had intended to graiutiously admit. 'J lie tree list of the McKinley tariff is larger in the number of articles, and in the aggregate amount of their import value. man the dutiable list. What would navy been the result lo the I'nited States if every article, before it was put on the free list, had been made the subject of inquiry to see what we could get in exchange for it ? We omitted to do so for many years and that neglect has cost Hie government advantages in trade which would havc amounted to tens of millions of dollars This is Hie whole of the reciprocity' scheme. It is very plain and verv simnie. It secures a valuable trade in exchange for articles otherwise, destined to be put on the free list. The Democratic party think tiiey can discredit it, and they make the effort apparently for the unpatriotic rea son that they did not originate it. WHAT -ST ATI-. HANKS .VI KAN. Willi all its calamities the war brought us one great blessing national currency. There are many who will say Hint it was worth the cost of the war to bring about so auspicious a result to capital and labor, i'rior to the war we had the worst cur rency system of any enlightened nation in the world. The stale banks, with some exceptions, were thoroughly irresponsible. tney existed by thousands throughout the 1 nited Mates. Whenever one of them failed the result was a large loss and great, distress among the people. JN'o one was responsible for their bills, and they were generally found scattered in the pockets of the laboring man, to whom they were a total loss without any redemption what ever. Of the state banks it was often nnd trulv said that their debts were the meas ure of their profits. They have caused an aggregate loss of hundreds of millions of dollars among Hie poor. Since the close of the war all this is dill'etent. Kverv pa per dollar that circulates among Hie people has.the I'nited Mates behind it as guaran tee. All the banks that exist are' under Hie control of the national government, and if they fail as financial institutions the government has taken care that their bills shall be paid by securities deposited in government vaults. I'lider these circumstances it is a mailer for extraordinary surprise that the Demo cratic conventions should deliberately pass resolutions for Hie revival of state banks. The palpable effect of this policy, if car ried out. would oe to cheat the poor man out of his daily bread, it state banks be. adopted and their circulation attain a large issue, no device could be more deadly for the deception and dcsjioiliiientof all the commercial and laboring classes, flow the Demoeratie convention came to make such a declaration, who was its author. what intelligent purpose was in it, will re main a mystery, l have heard the argu ment adduced that we would keep our money at home if statu banks were insti tuted, but we should keep it. at home be cause it would be so worthless mat nobody would take it abroad. W ere the system of state banks revived, we would again have discounts at the stale lines, large charges tor drafts on financial centers, and genera suspicion of every bill offered iu payment, with a liquidation every few years that would be destructive loss to Ihe innocent holders of bills, and a corresponding prolit lo the parties owning the hanks. The three issues which 1 have given arc the issues on which I would arraign Hie Demoeratie party. I would not multiply issues nor be diverted by our opponent's from a steadfast adherence to and con stant presentation of these questions be fore the people, until every voter is mado to know ami understand their true and weighty significance. Very sincerely yours. Jamks ti. Bi.aink. and to my utter surprise, and my surprise is so greai mat i nave net lound a reason tor it yet. Kvery word that ws suggested by that orator that belittled American anility, American enterprise and American success was loudiv applauded on Ihm sioe of the chamber. llmi. E fleet or Free Wool on Farmers. in 111 (here were .-! 13,136 sheep of the value of SlUS,!i!rM47, which yielded 2JS5, OOJ.UOO pounds of wool. On the above number lS,57f.400 were east of the Missis sippi and Missouri rivers, and most of them were kept on lands like those de scribed by Judge Lawrence, upon which no other slock could be kept, at any profit whatever. Now, we have seen that the farmer's business is one, of narrow margins and small prolits, and legislative bodies should iiesitate long before they do anything to lessen his chances or limit his facilities for making the most out of every one of his small opportunities. Hut we shall certainly be so limiting him if we make one iota less profitable the keeping of sheep, and no one will deny but that this bill will surely have that ef fect. Uesides depriving him of the profit able ttso of hundreds of millions of acres of land practically valueless for any other purpose, it would, the moment the bin had the executive approval which, by the way, will never happen whiio llenjamin Harrison is president take ten or twelve cents per pound on every pomm oi wool in the country.

If you repeal this dutv and the sheep raising industry ot this country is de stroyed, then tne million of men who are to-day engaged. in parlor in whole.in that industry will be driven out or employment, and where are thev to go? Are thev go ing into idleness? .vie they not rather going to enter other occupations and mav liiey not invade I he occupations of the con stituents of my friend lioni Missouri, oc cupations which to-dav are more than full? Why. sir, the constituents of the gentle man from Missouri and otiier men of the. same class elsewhere, hav e had their repre sentatives iu every congress iu which 1 have hoen a member, complaining of the want of labor and of opportunities to earn a living; and yet my friend from Missouri stands up here and seriously inveighs against the duty on wool, which protects the wool-grower of Ibis country, and seri ously proposes to turn out the "million of men engaged in wool-growing to invade ihe occupations of his own constituents and others elsewhere. Speech of Uon. .". L. MUMctt, of Me., in 11. li., April 4, Ability lo Manufacture Tin. I affirm three things yvith respect to tlm tin-plate industry : Kirst, that American capital has already responded to the invi tation extended to il by the McKinley law, and has practically deiiioiistratea our abil ity to manufacture our own supply; second, that the result has been to reduce the price of the foreign product, and will be to re duce the price of the home product; and, third, that the effect of this new industry will be to make us independent ot foreign ers, while it will add millions ol money to the channels of our home trade, to the benefit of the American people. Sicr.rli of Hon. Joint Jjulsell, oj ''., in 11. It, April l, lH-. Strikes No Connect ion With Tariff. A few days ago the pro tempore leader of the house on that side, with a disin geniiousness unworthy of him. inveighed against the protective system because certain coal-nuners in Alabama, cer tain iron-workers in Pennsylvania, had struck for higher wages, lie knows that the tariff had no connection with these strikes, lie knows that m allclimes, atall times, since man tirst looked intotheeveof his fellow, capital and labor have been en gaged in contests which a Christian civili zation has lessened in number and reduced in bitterness, but has not yet learned to ... prevent, lie known that not lone since the streels of free-trade London resounded to the tramp of inarching thousands, strikers, not for an advance, but against a reduction of wages. Men, and women, too, who in Trafalgar Square, in presence of the bronze figure of England's great cap tain on Hie seas, in curses loud and deep denounced the policy that on land mado beggars of her own. He knows that to day four hundred thousand mine-workers in free-trade Kngland, out on a strike, have laid their paralyzing hand on Eng land's trade. And if the gentleman from Tennessee, appealing in an assembly such as this, not to reason, but, to passion and prejudice, is enamoured of this subject of strikes. Jet me commend him to the recent history of his own slate, where freemen mine-workers were turned out to the winter's blast, hungry and workless, by convicts put in their places to sate tbe greed of Demoera tie mine-owners, 't hat strike, like all the others, bore no relation to the tariff, nor did the tariff bear any relation to it. Man's avarice on one side or on the other accounts for them all, tariff or no tariff. Speech of Hon. John lxilzei, of I'a., inU. II.. April J, isy. Mr. Blaine in the Field. tan We Make Tin Plate ! Can we make tin plate in this country? The gentleman who opened the discussion yesterday (Mr. Slnvely) said undoubtedly wo could. I was gratified to hear his statement, for 1 had read in Democratic papers so long that it could not be made In this country, for some occult reason, that t supposed that even the process of the times had not changed the impression on the minds ot any gentleman on that Side of The appearance of Mr. Blaine's letter is a most, significant political event. Its strength is twofold, its statements and ar guments will take fast bold of the minds of tliecountry.and it w ill furnish indisputable proof that Itepubiieans are thoroughly united for the national campaign. Mr. Piatt's interview shows that the New lork leaders are in line to assure victory in that state. Mr. Blame's proclamation for such ii really is-has a wider range, since tew Americans, if any, have ever had a more numerous personal following. Like everything which lie writes, t he pa per is clear and strong. Kvery voter who can read or to whom it is read can under stand it. In this respect, both the letter of President Harrison nnd that of Mr. lflaine arc models and marvels. Mr. Blaine's explanation of reciprocity will aid many , speakers iu presenting it to voters. It is not confused or wrapped around with the theories of free trade which Demoeratie workers hold up to their mystified and uncomprehending au diences. His statement of results is equally clear, ft has increased our national busi ness to a point never before reached m our history. It will bo interesting to see the Demo cratic, speakers wrestle with the point he. establishes that their modern party has deserted Jefferson and repudiated his tariff positions, jn short, it will be inter esting to observe the process by which Ihcy will attempt to meet this formidable arraignment. It is a document which will do yeomen service throughout Ihe cain- What the Democratic Foreign I'olier Did Not Do. The Democratic platform declares that it is the onlv narlv ihtt has given the country a vigorous foreign policy. Well, its vigorous foreign policy did not remove the invidious and unfriendly discrimina tion against ns by a large nomoer ot Kuroeau countries, which positively pro hibited the impoitation of our pork on the untruthful pretext that it was dangerous to health. The foreign policv ot the present l.e- niihlican administration did. and in spite ot high duties and all the difficulties at tending the sudden revival of a long-pro- n toned trade in an oiiiciany smimeitMi article, which the people had been taught, to believe dangerous, in llm few months that have elapsed this new market for the Western farmers had amounted lo over S-2.000, UOO up to .tunc lid Inst. Perhaps that is why the Democratic convention ainiabily remarked in its platform that the Kepublican policy that policy under which Ihe country has grown steadily greater and more prosperous for thirty years-fosters no ii.dustry so much as that of Ihe sheriff.-K'Mff..r ifelrf. ia .'Uw r.ariTiu : r.. . r. .Ve.'v, H'1-.!
