J S CLARKSON, Preitfent.
A. B. HUMPHREY. Secretary
Frem the style of letters which
Cleveund is writing he eems te want
the sen Ices of the lamented Dan
Lament.
Later and mere accurate reports
from the Alabama election show that
there was an organized effort te belittle
the opposition te the regular Demo
cratic ticket.
The pestiferous Knlee of Tenne-se,
and the Democratic committee will
probably circulate thougheut the cam
paign, the charg's cooked up by that
gentleman against the administration
of the pension office by General
Green B. Raum. Yet the Democratic
Heuse, for very shame, declined te take
any action winterer en Enloe's report
of his bulldozing investigation, knowing
that the persons most compromised by
that report were Democratic Congress
men. IN 1890 our imports of barley were
ll,332,elu bushels. In 1S91 imports fell
te 5,078,733 bushels, and they would hare
been less but for the great rush of bar
ley from Canada in September before the
new Tariff passed. But the fiscal year
ending June 30th, 1802, was wholly un
der the McKluley law, and what was the
result? Simply that we imported only
3,140,337 bushels, a decrease of 8,180,208
bushels, which represents the increased
market of home-grown barley. Is this
a benefit or an injury te American farm
ers? Here's a dainty morsel for the gentle
stimulation of the Grever Cleveland
Party Pilets: " Of course, Mr. Cleve
land might be elected President, for al
though the age of miracle seems te have
passed, anything is possible with Ged.
But according te the standards by which
reasonable men usually try such ques
tions, it will require little less than a
miracle te elect him." It is hardly
necessary te remind that these words
appeared from the fearless, ante-convention
Watterson; new se radiantly
astride his Free-trade hobby.
The Republican party is the party of
human progress. It beasts of no
traditions. It has no followers, for all
are leaders. It has given the world
the best Government ever administered
among men. It has exalted Maber,
dignified the home and made the waste
places te produce plenty. In the track
of its marches are seen a million
factories, surrounded by happy and
prosperous agricultural cemmuaities.
It Is the party of honest money and fair
equivalents. It permits its citizens te
Jbe free and contends for equal advan
tages before the law of all men. It
declares te jhe children of the rich and
t!ie children of thefpoer that the child
t ujr 'Aaieriean citizen can achieve,
MfthlRg possible In this great ceitttry.
Seme explanation is Deeded of why
the DeuiOernN feel se jubilant ever
i iiimug I'iirrii'ii iMiiunuiii.
"Mr. Si'EAKhii, where was I atV" Is a
question that the entire Democratic
majority in the recent Congress might
ask. Neither the Speaker nor any ene
else could answer the question.
This is the description gien of them
sehes by the empleyes of the Home
stead Iren Works. "The empleyes in
the mill of .Messrs. Carneuik, Piui't'S
& Ce. at Homestead hae built there a
town, with its homes, its schools and its
churches, have for many years been
faithful co-workers with the company in
the business, and have imested thou
sands of dollars of their swings in the
said mill." Just put next te this a
description of the Free-trade English
ironworker., and you will h:ie the dif
ference between Protected and Fiee
trade laborers.
The calamity craze sprang into
existence as the result of peer crops. It
was me-t prealent in the Western
and Northwestern
states. The farmers
The In these localities
Cuamity Cm.K. were peer men who
were struggling te
make for themselves
and families homes upon the lauds the
Republican party had given them under
the proisiens of the homestead and pre
emption laws. The failure of each
succeeding crop reduced them tlnancially
lower and lower until in their despera
tion they were willing te belieie that
the Geernment, and especially the
Republican party, was responsible for
their misfortunes.
Scheming politicians took advantage
of the situations and the result was the
calamity party. Reason was dethroned
and fanaticism reigned supreme. With
the year 1501 came geed crops. Kansas
alone released ever $1-1,000,000 of mort
gage indebtedness. Nebraska fell in
line with nearly as much mere. The
farmers prospered. Reason returned,
resulting in the gradual decline of the
calamity howl. The present crop
prepects for the Western states were
never better and with returning pios pies
perity will return the old-time Republi
can majorities.
Reciprocity has made a market in
Cuba for ever a million barrels of
American flour every year. In the year
1S00 the value of exported hams te
Cuba was only 2I,S00. Under reci
procity, however, in November, 1801,
these experts amounted te 10,Sel. The
farmers of the West and Northwest can
appreciate these facts, as wheat and
perk are the principle things they have
te sell.
The labor troubles at Homestead
were welcomed as a Godsend by the
political manipulators of the Free-trade
party, says The
American Eione Eieno Eiono
Nevel Deke.nse mist. Se overcome
for Free-trvde. with joy were these
prophets of calamity
at the prospects of
having some material for doleful
homilies ever the ruinous condition of
our country under. Protection that one
Southern paper forget itself se far as te
say that the Carnegie strike was the
"greatest been that could have been
conferred en the Democrats." As yet,
however, we have heard of no Pro
tectionist whose faith has wavered en
account of the falsehoods and mis
representations of the demagogue "re
formers" but one; and se novel, in fact
refreshing, are this convert's reasons for
becoming a Free-trader that it is worth
while reproducing them entire. As
stated in an interview:
He claimed thnt nny Protection that
enabled the common workman te miike
from $0 te $8 per day was tee much
Protection. He claimed that it cost him
$2,500 te obtain his college education,
and that there was net one-half of his
graduating class that could earn the half
of f3 rfer day. His argument was that,
as it wus diillcult for any college bred
man te earn ever ?1 per (fay, uny system
that enabled an uneducated In borer te
earn double that was vicious, und, there
fore, he favored Free-trade.
We mistake much If the Free-traders,
while of course, secretly agreeing with
every word here spoken, will raise a
great shout of triumph ever this lonely
individual whom the Homestead strike
has made full fledged Cebdenite. In
fact, we think they will rather try te
prevent his saying anything at all, for
fear that the result will only be in
creased majorities for the Protection
cause. As the Homestead strike was
going te be a clincher ngalnst the
Tariff, however, it la significant that
the only man attracted te the Free
trade camp is ene who revolts at the
high wages paid protected workers, and
thinks that a safe remedy for this
"evil" Is F(ee-trade, " reform" which, he
knows, can always be safely depended
en te lower wages and pauperize labor.

A SCENE IN COURT

Kppertcr Tlireilti-iHMl With Contempt.
Ixdianaiei.I8, I ml., Aug. 125. There
were some dramatic scenes in the court
Wednesday after the Iren Hall receiver
had qualified. His attorneys asked the
court te direct the various branches te
send in their reserve funds. The court
was en the point of issuing this order,
when his attention was called te the
fact that the Indinnapelis reporters
were taking these things down. He
steed the reporters up In a row and
ordered them te destroy their note
books and say nothing about the court's
action. The reporters are giving full
accounts of all they heard, and In spite
of the warning of the court that they
would lc held In contempt The court
went Inte private consultation with the
attorneys, and presumably issued the
desired order. This, it is claimed by the
press, is illegal, as the court records are
public.

is the first attempt at destruction
of property around the Carnegie city
mills, and caused great excitement, both
inside and outside of the company's
works. The body of the car was badly
shattered and the contents scattered In
all directions. Se far as can be ascer
tained no one was injured A reserve
force of peller was summoned, and
quickly surrounded the place, but no
one was captured, and no clew te the
perpetrators was found.
