THE PB0GRE8SIVE DEMOCRACY. We are not without hope for the Democratic party. It will, sometimes, make progress in spite of its inherent disposition to stand still and grumble. Hoe the progress it has made in two years. September 1890, no tin plate could jwssibly be made in tho United States and if it could, the tariff would make it cost so much that no one could afford to buy tin ware. .September,1891, the tin plate factories we hear eo much about are mere myths, gotten up for political purposes. No tin plate has been made in the United States it is only terne-plate, used to cover houses with.

January, 1892, the tin plate factories which have been bnilt in the United States, buy their black plate from England and coat it with tin from abroad. Pshaw! what does this amount to?

May, 1892, the tin plate factories of the United States give employment to few men they are mostly run by the labor of women and children.

July, 1892, one tin plate factory has been sold at sheriff's sale. Hurrah! we told you so!

Auguist, 1892, the tin plate made in tho Lnited States is made largely by foreign workmen. The tin plate factories are not much benefit to the laWing people of the UnitedStates. Besides, the tin they make is inferior.

August 25, 1892. Just as many tin plate factories could have been built, and as successfully run without the McKinley bill as with it, and everybody knows thai while tinware is as cheap as over, it would have gone down anyhow, and much more than it has, had it not been for the tariff.

Anyone who has the curiosity to look through the Democratic papers, for the hist two years, will find that we have given a faithful epitome of what they have said about the manufacture of tin plate in tho United States.

TIN, TIN, AMERICAN TIN. The Star, in speaking of the Temescal tin mines of California, and denouncing it as a fraud, says: "It is in view of the fact that there is no tin to speak of in this country that we object to all special taxes on tin." Will the Star and other Democratic papers never learn that there is no tariff tax, as they call it, cn pig tin, and that their prejudices lead them to attack every American enterprise that will develop the resources of tho country, whether it is pestered by a tariff or not. Pig tin at present is on the free list, and under the provisions of tho McKinley law may forever remain there. But the Democratic party is op]KByl to any and all tin mines in tho United States, anyhow, for fear that we might become independent of foreign countries in regard to the twenty odd million dollars worth of tin we use in this country. The following iB the 29th paragraph of the McKinley law: "On and after July first, 1893, there shall be imposed and paid upon cassiterite or black oxide of tin, and upon bar, block or pig tin, a duty of foui cents per pound:

Provided, That unless it shall be made to appear to the satisfaction of the President of the United States (who shall make known the fact by proclamation) that the product of the mines of the United States shall have exceeded five thousand tons of cassiterite, and bar,-block and pig tin in any ono year

prior to July 1, lStlfl, then all imported cassiterite, bnr, block and pig tiu shall, lifter July 1, 1SVI5, bo admitted froo of duty."

The Temescal Tin Mining Company baa an agent located at San Diego, Ool., whose business it is to sell the products of the Temt'ceal firm at that place. In a writteu report made by him to Mr. Aver, the governmental agent, who, under the McKinley law, is bound to ascertain tho amount of tin mined in this country, lie stated, under oath, that theso mines, last venr, produced and put on tho market, 282,038 jjounds of pig tin. Which 6hall we rely on, the the declaration of tho Star that thore is no tin produced at Temescal, or the sworn statement of the agent who sells the tin, made to a government otlioial, whose report is to finally nndorgo the scrutiny of a Democratic Congress?

A neliable Democrat lias informed The Jocrnaii that the Demecratic Central Committee haB made an assessment againBt the candidates on the county ticket amounting in the aggregate to $2,000. We were under the impression that under the Australian election law no boodle could be used, but it seems the Democratic committee are willing to take the chances. When they receive their share of the New York World's corruption fund their pocket books will stick out with fatness. So far as the Democrats are concerned it looks like a boodle campaign.

Tijk Star is opposed to the tariff on tin plate because as it alleges we do not make much tin in this country. Uow about tho tariff on sngar, coffee and lea, none of which we raife in this couutrv, except about ten per cent, of the sugar we consume? If it is wrong to put a tariff on tin because we don't make much tin, why is it not equally wrong to impose a duty of GO per cent, on sugar? But the Star will never undertake to answer this question, nor will any other free trade paper.

The Jovunal said that in 1837 axes sold for SI.50. The Slur says this was because the axes had to bo transported from Now England. But the axes were made here, by the blacksmith, and as The Journal now learns from an old blacksmith account book, sold for S3 instead of SI.50.

Obituary.

Mrs. Julia A. Huff, who died at 3 p. m., Aug. 31, 1892, at her home on Franklin street of inllammatiou of the bowels, was born in Woodford county, Ky., Oct. 20, 1822.

The hymns and chapter (Kev. 14:13) used at her funeral were of her own selection, and all who knew her realized her Christian faith. In 1890 her golden wedding day was made glad by the presence of relatives and friends." The three score and ten years were almost complete and words are weak when we try to give the history of such a life in "a few brief lines.

In such action was her greatest happiness. A beautiful life has ended but its influence shall live forever in the memory of all who knew her.
