Some weeks since several of the pot

pooled their business under one arrage

such a scheme is best known. There
were but few of the Trenton potteries
engaged in the deal, but it w as suspect
ed at the time than the new organization
or company was but the nucleus for
the formation of a gigantic association
that would practically control the pot
tery output of the country. Events have
occurred in this city within the past
. few days which give color and force to
euch a supposition. On Friday last
there arrived in the city from New York

TALKS TARIFF TO A CROWD AT a CHAUTAU
QUA MEETING
Out in Nebraska—He Cracks the Same Old Chest
nuts and Attempts to Criticise the Demo
cratic Tariff Plank Adopted
at Chicago.
Beatrice, Neb., August 2.—Fifteen
thousand people at the Chautauqua
grounds this afternoon listened to a
stirring address by Governor McKinley,
of Ohio. Special trains this morning
brought in throngs of people from
Kansas, Iowa and Missouri, to bear the
great prctectionlet. Business in the
city was almost suspended, and
everybody witnessed the immense pro
cession which preceded the Governor’s
speech. All along the line of march
the buildings were decorated for the
occasion, and the parade and demon
stration was one of the most elaborate
ever held in the State. Promptly at
2:30 o’clock McKinley began his ad
dress. The Governor received an ova
tion.
Gov. McKinley said in beginning tnat
the latest National Democratic platform
is a bolder recognition of free trade
than any of its predecessors, and went
on to analyze it. The report as it carno
from the committee,- said he. declared
that when customs taxation is levied
upon articles of any kind produced in
this country, the difference between the
cost of labor hero and labor abroad fully
measures any possible bcnciits to
labor."
That was stricken out, and this dii
ference in favor of the American work
ingman Is no longer to be recognized
by the Democratic party In its arrange
ment of the tariff. Again the the sen
tence “but in making reductions in
taxes, it is not proposed to injure any
domestic Industry,” was stricken out,
and in their revised edition they take
no care of any domestic industry.
Again, the report declares that “from
the foundation of this government
taxes collected at the custom houses
have been the chief source of Federal
revenue; such .they mu>t coutlnuo to
be.”
That is stricken out, which indicates
more strongly that the new leaders of
the Democratic party propose to aban
don their old policy of raising revenue
from customs and rely solely upon di
rect taxation for tho revenue needs of
the government. They give up their
old theories of taxation, and are ready
to accept the land tax scheme of Henry
George, or adopt the system of direct
taxation which Thomas Jefferson de
clared too odious and onerous to be
thought of except in a great national
emergency.
Again, the committee report declared
"so that every change of law must be
at every step regardful of the labor and
capital Involved.” That, too, is strick
en out, and wboro a change of law here
after Is not to be regardful of labor em
ployed and capital Invested In the great
industries of the country.
Again, “the processes of reform must
bo subject to tho execution of these
plain dictates of juustice.”
That was stricken out. No quarter
is to be given; but all our vast enter
prises must surrender without terms to
tho demands of tariff reform.
Then they denounce Republican pro
tection as fraud ar.d robbery, and de
clare that Cougress has no constitution
al power to enforce and collect tariff
duties protective in their nature.
Tho constitutionality of a protective
tariff has not seriously been que>tione<i
in more than a hundred years. The
policy was recognized in the second art,
passed by the Congress of the I’nited
States—a Congress participated in by
many of the framers of the constitution.
The preamble of that act declared it to
be "for the support of the Government
for the discharge of debts of the I'nited
States and for the encouragement and
protection of manufacturers.
That law passed by a unanimous vote
in the Senate and by a majority of five
toone In the House, and was reported by
Mr. Madison. afterwards President, and
was approved by George Washington.
If a protective policy is Wi violation
of any constitution it is not that of the
I'nited States. It is a manifest viola
tion of the constitution of the Confeder
ate States. Possibly that is what they
mean. Happily for us, however, we
don’t recognize that Instrument, and
never did and we are not operating un
der it.
Tho Governor continued at great
length by drawiug comparisons of
wages paid, cost of production, etc., in
foreign countries with ours, and in con
clusion said: "Tried by any test, meas
ured by any standard, we lead all tho
rest of the world. Protection has vin
dicated Itself. It cannot be helped by
eulogy or hurt by defamation; It has
worked out its own demonstration and
presents in tho sight of the whole world
its matchless trophies. Our own expe
rience shows tbat.it Is best for our citi
zenship and our civilization and opens
up a higher and better destiny for our
people. Tho day of repentance will
come when we have made a change.
Annual Celebration.
The St. Alphonsus Society will cele
brate the twenty-first anniversary of
the organization of the society with a
picnic at the Fair Grounds Monday
next. The ceremonies leading up to
the celebration promise to be very im
posing.
The day will be opened with a
grand parade, to which ail the Catholic
clergy of the city has been invited,
and in the absence of Bishop Kain Rt.
Rev. Monsignor Sullivan will head the
clergy in the procession, followed by
the Knights of St. George of the
Cathedral, Knights of St. Georeo
of St. Alphonsus church, An
cient Order of Hibernians, Polish
Society of St. Mary's Church,
Young Men’s Society of St. Alphonsus
Church and St. Alphonsus Society, in
whose honor the parade aDd picnic are
given.
The procession will form in front of
the St. Alphonsus church and will
march down Twentieth to Main, thence
to Twenty-fourth, up Twenty-fourth
to Chapline, thence up ChSpline to
