It is rumored that there is a scheme
on foot to haul poor old Thurman off
the track and put Gray, o Indiana, in
his place.
School-house meetings in every dis
trict in the county is what will be seen
inside of one month. The campaign is
wide open.
The greatest event of next year will
be when the country sees President
Harrison March fourth. It will at the
same time see President Cleveland
march forth.
It now transpires that the man who
sent $12,000 to Mayor Hewitt, of New
York, for the yellow fever sufferers,
with strict injunctions that his name
jnhouUl not be made public, was Levi

The Christian Advocate, the orB
of tao Methodist Episcopal church
eouOi, says; "Republicans and negroes
shall never rule in the South, ballot or
no ballot, count or no count. Put that
in your pipe and smoke it."
When John Martin comes here he
need not bring a bottle, the b'hoys will
tell him where to find what he wants.
Besides a bottle will not win him votes
in Dickinson county; his conversion is
too recent. Glick is the ideal of the
pro-whisky Bourbons.
The Topeka Democrat complains
that the Associated Press gives too
much Republican news. Why, bless
you, that's all the news there is this
year. We notice, however, that Dem
ocratic editors weed it out pretty thor
oughly, which accounts for the stab
condition of their columns.
Look at Maine once more. The Re
publican candidate for Governor was
elected by 38.495, but the Republicai
Congressional ticket received a plural
ity of 19,252. The tariff was not made
an issue in the contest for Governoi
and it was in the contest for Congress
men.
Protection and free trade had a fair
stand-up fight in the district of Con
gressman Reed, of Maine, in the recen
election. Reed is the leader of the pro
tectionists in the House, and the Dem
ocrats "pitched in" with vigor to de
feat him, and this was the result:
While his plurality was 117 in 1SS0.
317 in 18S2, 916 in 18S4, and 1326 ii.
1886, it wjis about 2700 this year.
The boys are after the Labor Union
fellows sharp. Their candidate foi
governor is characterized as "Old Pete
Elder." The Wellington Press refers
to him ai follows:
He is the worst old political pill and
hack in the State. He has made his
jnoney in banking id brokerage, and
is engaged in money loaning now. He
is said to own more mortgages than
any one individual in the State.
The ravages of the yellow fever con
tinue to increase in the South. Its
victims are being counted by the thous
ands. Heartfelt sympathy expressed
in words and in cash is being poured
out upon our stricken cousins by the
warm hearted North. It is a cauBe for
thankfulness that cold weather is ap
proaching and will arrest the progress
of the plague.
England is not the paradise that
free traders depict. The revenue is
- $1,029,563,625 for 85,000,000 of people;
, jsvith nearly twice that population the
United States collects about the same
revenue. So that the percentage of
.taxation in relation to the population
is about twice as great in England as
here. The manner of collecting reve
nue also is more oppressive there than
nere. Here the chief source or reve
nue is protective to labor; there almost
all revenue is derived from a direct
taxation which, is levied upon all that a
xuanhMwrtvpoa nearly all teat lie,
Their Own Pault.
When Gen. Harrison, in his letter of
acceptance, says that the surplus
should be used in buying out-standing
obligations of the government, he ex
presses a view entirely in harmony
with the Republican party, and he very
forcibly calls to the attention of the peo
ple the dereliction of the present ad
ministration in permitting the surplus
to accumulate when it has full power
under the laws to buy up government
bonds and thus save the interest to the
people. The law was passed in 1881,
is found in volume 21, page 457, of the
United States Statutes and reads as fol
lows; Section' i. That iiie Secretary of
the Treasuiy may at any time applj
Hie surplus money in the treasuiy noi
otherwise appropriated, or so inucl
thereof as he may consider proper, to
the purchase or redemption of United
States bonds. Provided that the bond
so purchased or redeemed shall consti
tute no part of the sinking fund, but
-hall be canceled.
It is well enough to call the attention
four Democratic brethren, who are
howling about a "great surplus, unnec
essary taxation," etc., to this neglect
f a public duty jntrusted to their dib
cretioh'as the fountain of !?ieir woeF-
If evil comes to the people by this ain
plus, it will be their fault. They can
not be allowed to use an unnecessary
emergency created by their own neg
lect of duty to compass the destructioi
of American industries and American
wages.
In serenading Postmaster-General
Dickinson, at Boston, the other night
the band played "The Letter that
Xever Came." The tune was certainh
lppropriate if it was intended to refei
zo the mail missed by a majority of tin
iitizeus of the country since the begin
liugof the Cleveland administration.
Tlie letters that were written and nevei
came during the last three years are a
cause for lamentation in
lold in the land.

state or in salt or brine, not specially
enumerated or provided for." So says
the Mills bill, and as potatoes are not
elsewhere "specially enumerated or
provided for," if the bill means any
thing it means they are on the free
list.
The idiocy of the Union Laborites
in asking the government to loan
money to the poor without interest is
pitiful. There would be such a mob
on hand for the first "dividend" that
he gates of Washington could not pre
vail against them.
Judge John Martin announced at
Atchison the other night than an effort
will be put forth in Kansas to make
the Democratic party respectable. The
plucky Judge has the largest job on his
hands that he ever undertook.
Senator Carlisle in accepting bis re
nomination for Congressman made a
straight out free-tnyle speech. Oh yes,
"the fight of exterm, inaion to AmeP
can industries is to the death."

A Damaging Statement.
The Globe Democrat publishes a
letter from Senator Vest, of Missouri,
to C. II. Xapton, Secretary of a Demo
cratic club in St. Louis, in which letter
Mr. Vest uses this remarkably frank
and truthful language:
"Mr. Cleveland, by his message, for
which I sincerely honor him, has chal
lenged the protected industries of the
country to a fight of extermination.
.The fight is to the death."
Senator Vest has acknowledged the
authenticity of the letter in an open
speech in the United States Senate,
and attempts to apologize and explain,
No apology, no explanation, can justify
the use of such language deliberately
penned by a United States Senator to
a fellow Democrat. Mr. Vest spoke
the words of truth and soberness in
that letter. He said just what eyery
free-trade Democrat from Maine to
California deep down in his heart be
lieves, lie said in this private letter
what the Democrats are too cowardly
and hypocritical to say openly. So far
as the free trader is concerned the
fight is to the death "of all protected
industries." Mr. Cleveland and every
man who endorse Mr. Cleveland's
messa?e believes just what Mr. Vest
believes and by his voice and influence
has arrayed himself against the "pro
tected industries to a fig fit of extermination.
The fiylit is to the death." The challenge
which Mr. Cleveland has made has
been accepted by the American people.
On which side of the "fight" wjll you
be found in November next?
A High-handed Move.
A trio of self-appointed censors,
Democratic in politics, strutted into
the postoffice at Keystone last week
and ordered A. S. Green, deputy post
master, to "resign because he was ob
noxious to thp Dernqoracy of Man
chester." Mr. Green refused to obey,
and they tuieatened all soits of trouble
for Postmaster Hanks and his assis
tant. The action was a high-handed
outrage, as the deputy postmastership
in a fourth class office is nothing mote
than a matter of convenience, and in
this case it) so arranged bac mse Messrs
Ranks and Greeu are asspciated in bus
iness, and tJiejr business interests ;ue
subserved by eufih ntt aiTangt-njent.
Ihere was no pietense, on the pait
of the movers in the affair, that Mr.
Gree? was no capable. It is acknowl
edged that he ha? the respect and es
teem of the community. The Cii'iiiO oi
which he is guilty in the minds ol
these members of the great reform?)
party is that he is a Hepubljcaq,
The move of these would-be bosses,
without authority or semblance of rea
son, is being severely condemned; and
we will say. in justice to the beltei
jlass of the Democrats of Manchester,
that it is not countenanced by them
The free-traders never tire of tellinp
ow the number of sheep have de
ireased in Vermont and other State
tnder protection. The agricultural re
turns just issued in England show
that on June 4, 18S8, the number ol
sheep in Great .Britain have decreased
420,000 in a single year. This is a nic
showing for a free-trade country, isn't
it? Isn't it a pretty good lesson for
farmers?
The Democratic literary bureau has
now sent out a claim that Cleveland h
going to carry Pennsylvania Thi.
completes the list. The Democrats now
claim, we understand, all the northern
States except Xev York, Indiana, Xew
Jersey and Connecticut. They have,
however, become slightly discouraged
about Vermont and may, later on, con
cede it to be doubtful.
Sew York's climate seems to disa
gree with prominent Demograts.
First Thurman was knocked, complete
ly out and then linger Q. Mills broke
down during a speech and had to be
carried to his hotel. It will be more
unhealthy for Grover, though, next No
vember. Judge John Martin is a passable law
yer, a shrewd politician and a great
wire-puller but when you accuse Jnm
of being an eloquent orator, as the Dem
ocratic press of the State is fond of do
ing, it is perpetrating a gross libel upon
him and he knows it.
It is announced that the Old lloman
