Aloanv. N. Y., October 31 The
Argus will publish to-morrow the
following interview with ex-president
Clevelaud on the political situ
ation sent to it by its New York cor
respondent: 'Of course it ia needless for me to
express the interest I feel in the
elections now pending, though I
have sometimes feared that my re
neftrml nml rnforced declination of
dj invitations to visit differeut localities
and address political meetings might
be construed as indicating a lacK 01
sympathy with the fortunes of the
excellent candidates in the demo
cratic field. I am sure there never
)p was a public questiou discussed more
thoroughly and more intelligently
than has been the subject of tariff
reform by its democratic advocates.
This may, perhaps, suggest that if
the democratic position is the cor
rect one, there should be immediate

fj of the people. But the judgment
I of our c juutrymeu has been so tram-
I n . meled, and their perceptions have
beeu so clouded by prejudice and
appeals to self interest, that their
apprehension of the true province of
our government has been distorted,
k and they have for years been led to
believe that the conduct of public
affairs miht properly minister to
their profit, not by securing general
prosperity founded on principle,
but by giving a direct advantage to
certain classes. There can be no
advance in tariff reform where th?se
prevail.
It is certaiuly true that in such a
selfish operation the interests of
some of the people must be neglect
ed. Protests ou the part of these
disregarded, while advantages have
been accorded to a favored few, are
not to be much longer deceived
They are discovering more and more
clearly that the earning of the toil
some and uncomplaining laborers
which should have added to their
own comfort and prosperity have
been diverted to the aggrandizement
of others, while they have constant
ly grown poorer. They fail to see
in the accumulation of vast fortunes
under such conditions auy compen
sation for their discouraging labor
or for their forced and pinching
economy. They will not always be
silent, but will naturally and inevita
bly demand the justice to all ami
favor to none which our institution
promise.
"I am confident that we shall se
cure a majority in the next house o
represensativas. Uur success may
not be so sweeping and decisive as
mauy of our sanguine friends antici
pate, but it will ba safe and substan
tial. I can not forget how labor
iously a reform moves which must
break through 6elfish interests
strongly entrenched and unscrupu
lously asserted, and which must
ouercome abuses long suffered and
arrogantly maintained. I b -lieve
that all our gains must be the result
of hard struggle against these odds.
It is not however possible that the
complete triumph of the people's
cause can be much longer delayed.
The effective incalculation of our
home doctrine which characterizes
the democratic press; the thorough
discussion going on in every part of
the country; the undisguised schemes
of the republican party to secure its
perpetuation in power through reck

sults of the people's suffrage: its
brutal methods of legislation, and
The Laborer's Taxes.
An effective cartoon is given in
the illustrated papers, making
splendid object lesson for the labor
iug man, by giving the article men
tioned below with the McKiuley tax

pictures, but here are the points:
The laborer rises in the morning
and puts on his flannel shirt, taxed
100 per cent.; his trousers, 110: shoes,
25; he washes iu a tin basin, taxed
55 per ceut.; with soap, 20; uses
cotton towel, 45; puts coal (22) in
the stove (45); dons his coat (110)
and eats his breakfast from a plate
taxed 50 per cent., with a knife and
fork (40), sweateuing his coffee with
sugar (13), and seasoniug his foo
with salt (44). He puts on his over
coat (85) and hat (G5) aud goes to
his 'protected' labor. His wife wears
a woolen dress taxed 88 per cent.
shoes (25), stockings (35). She ews
on a machine taxed 45 per cent.,
using thread (61), and scissors (45).
When her husband comes home he
lies down on an iron bed (45), draw
ing over him a sheet and blanket,
taxed 111 per cent."'

will be democratic by au ample ma

all the gerrymandered districts in
Ohio that they Loped for. but will
make up the difference elsewhere.

le bases this ou the eflect of the
tariff bill, in connection with the re
cent gerrymander. In this conver
sation Mr. Clarkson said bitterly of
he tariff bill: "The passage of that
act was a daring thing right in the
teeth of the election. Like a new
harness, it was sure to gall in some
places. Any tariff bill requires time
to have its merits demonstrated.
The republican party enacted this
one within a month of an important
election. The democrats promptly
seized upon this opportunity to

The shoe manufacturers, one hun
dred and thirty delegates being pres
ent, met at the Metropolitan hotel
in New York City last week and pass
ed two important resolutions. One
was that hereafter they will issue
no more guarantees on their goods
that the purchaser shall assume all
risks of defect?. The other is of
vastly more importance to the peo
pie. Because of the advance in leath
er, occasioned by the McKiuley bill
they advanced prices 25 and 50 cents
a pair on shoes. This is the tar
iff is being reduced as the republi
cans promised the people in 1888.

the republicans are relying upon
their contributions from the manu
facturers when they urge them on to

ed iu republican newspapers, that
the democratic congressional com
mittee had received $30,000 from
the importers. The plain mer aing
of this is the manufacturer must

he did in 1888. Ther say to him:

The different political parties are
estimating their chances in 1892 and
both are making several combina
tions of states by which they could
win, and in each of which New York
prominently figures. Owiug to the
complication of political matters as
now presented, it would be difficult
to form an estimate. The question
of tariff reform and a reduction of
taxation, the silver issue, the elec
tion bill and prohibition will play
a conspicuous part in the fall elec
tions, and it would be absurd to en
ter into any calculation until after
that result is fully known. If the
republican party persists in its pro
tection policy, its opposition to free
coinage of silver, a reduction of tax
ation and its advocacy of prohibition
in the fall elections, the democracy
will sweep the country from Maine
to California. If that party expects
to hold its own. it must stand by the
eastern manufacturers, trusts and
monopolies that have placed it in
power or a Waterloo defeat will
overtake it.
