Mb. Whitney would have made an able chairman of the Democratic National Committee, but this is a year in which the people, not c ■umitteea, will decide the result. 11 "US 1 The Prohibitionists at Cincinnati declared in favor of prohibition and Straddled on everything else. The 1 irge feniinininc element in the convention did not prevent the straddle. An iron-mill owner who claims ■Ji.it it is necessary to reduce wages ul this time, in view of the generous protection given his industry by this government, is to put it plainly and bluntly, a liar. The Democratic platform was not written to please the Republican organs or the party of Force bills and a tariff for protection to Plutocrats. It is a platform for Democrats, and on it they will win a decisive victory in November. Mr. Clarkson is still explaining h'<w quietly he submitted himself to Harrison’s boot and how he felt a 't. rit had been applied. This may be soothing to Mr. Clarkson, b it after seeing the exhibition the public needs neither commentary nor diagram to make it intelligible. It was self-explanatory. Mr. Carnegie has congratulated Mr. Frick on bis “masterly management” of the company’s portion of ihe Homestead strike. If hiring men to commit murder is “masterly management,” then Mr. Frick is deserving of Mr. Carnegie's conimen--1 u ion. But it is probable that a humane public will.look at i-t from a-diffeseut standpoint. Td <hjch should the citizen look for protcctlcm cf life and property, to a detective force gi’TS the laws of the state in which he resUcg? Uncle Sam protects the iron and steel ludusifiea within her borders. Do es the blasted millionaire protect the laborer in his mills? How about the introduction of pauper labor in the Homestead mills? Look out for another oxodus to to and Oklahoma. The Georgia crop is short and i’ * is in su-h dismay thr i£ir?£^t9 *- pede in any direction. aged to stand the grinding Oe McKinley tariff and the consequent unprofitableness of cotton, but when the watermelons dry up there is bound to be trouble. Not a single dollar has been added to the wages of the. American laborer by the McKinley bill. On the contrary, an effort has been made to reduce the wages in many lines of industry. If Republican editors can show any such increase they should lose no time in doing so; it will doubtless be interesting (?) news, as well as gratifying intelligence.. The presses of the Government Printing Office in Washington could not be put to better use than in spreading information as to the true inwardness ot the revolutionary Force bill which the Minneapolis convention promises that .the Republican party will enact if it is “iven the chance. The people of tii is country are profoundly interested in politics just now. Let them all have the facts fully and accurately,. « - I'ne coun'ry wjlj yet, all the tariff reImm it can stand The Republican party w ill lurn.s.li j.l.,'’—Decatur Journal. We believe tips to be the truth. It has more tariff reform of the Republican sort than the people are willing to stand now and the people, at Homestead are remonstrating. Next fall the people of the entire country will speak their disgust in such a manner that the lawfulness of A-h-e, UmeAvill not be mistaken and.

The slaves are under the control of the barons and will be sfiot down bythem or forced to work at starvation wages. Will the “Great religious weekly, ” fully explain what benefit the laboringmen in the iron districts of Pennsylvania will derive from the recent iron trust known as the Carhegiu combing Perhaps a re. view of its constituents would be of .material aid in the explanation: THE GREAT CARNEGIE COMBINE. 1 PITTSBI RG, July I —On andattirto I lay the rx'ensive ope>a i >ns in boa and Heel, formerly conducted under the firm ! -ante of Carnegie’s Brothers &Co (limI i'-d); Ca- -■ >.'ie, Phipps & Co.

Among the Americans in London is Mr. John W. Bookwaiter, of Ohio, who owns extensive works at Spring-fit-id, 0. In the course of a conver nation on the subject of the strike, he said: ‘•The Democratic party could not have praved for a better illustration of the sham of protectian than that which is now held up to view atTlomestead. Mr. Carnegie has gone before congress for the past twenty years with his doctrine ot protection, and, like a good, subservient body, congress has always given him what he desired. He has advocated and received protection ad nauseam, bnt his theories, instead of proyjng a blessing t > the workmen, who were first ant) foremost in his ohilantrophic mind (?), have found their practical answer in the bullets of Pinker ton’s Winchesters I, too, am a manufacturer on a large scale," add d Mr. Book waiter, “and J send mv products to the markets of the world.. lam not staggering under the oppression of a protective tariff, but obliged to pav heavy duties on my raw material. S'iH I am not called upon to enforce reduced wages, simply because I am satisfied with reasonable profits.” “TARIFF FOR REVENUE ONLY” the collection of customs dli(3 io? tlie maintaining the’ ” Tt| CDSes es tte g«-v.e^ ent - No Other principle, P ob iey is eonuepted with it. Tlto P F ‘ n ' eiple supporting this idea is that the government has no right IP ' aw or equity to nstablisli a system of favors for any man of class of men which other citizens must p»y, and that no bounties to individual citizens shall be bestowed by the government. Whatever custoflHs duties will, at the least inconvenience to all the people of the United States, afford a revenue to the general government is contemplated hy the policy of “a tariff for revenue only.” This is the principle of the Democratic platform, and supporting this principle, is the broad aud free belief that men should be allowed to buy and self where they please, without let or hiudrarme, circumHcribed only by the revenue btusluof tux imposition. This Democratic belief is further supported by the affirmation that no other nacioft -js so favored with the wealth of nature, in soil, climate and mines, to become the world’s work shop, to command the trade of the earth by earning it, not by re.sirietjng it, by inviting commercial intercourse, not by rejecting it. In this belief is grounded democratic faith, as old as creation, that man is a free agent, and save for the purpose of and thfi good of society, government has no right to restrict, regulate or tax him. This demociaey, such democracy aS any man i worthy the name, of- a free American citizen ought to be proud' to claim as his by heritage, to be transmitted m honor and freedom to posterity. This is what “a tariff for revenue only” means, carried to its logical Conclusion. . Jf O'ff WUMPIAN SIONB. The editor of Harper’s Weekly takes occasion to institute some ' comparisons between candidates
.-m l methods, lie says, the defeat of Quay, PlMt A Co., at Minneapolis, was a g iin for docent politics., as - I.a also ihe defe-n of Tammany at Chicago. Rut the similtirity <xtend’ nd further, Mr. Harrison was put forward by convention consisting chitfly of office hcdJe’-s, and his was not a nomination of "enthusiasm. lie considers him a stronger eandidato than he was in 1888. Public sentiment oil the loading i«stie has grown up to his belief and declaration. Everywhere he is stronger than in ’B4 and ’BB. 'Mis character better understood, impresses with “its frank integrity and invites entire confiidenee. He has a certain rugged honesty and plainness of character and speech which give him a popularity not shared by any other public man.” Tammany will support Mr. Cleveland from a suise of selfpreservation, “This is the kind of politics Tammany understands.” As for the prospect of civil service reform at the hands of the Republican party, the Weekly considers the Quay and Wanamaker methods in ’BB, and the Wanamaker reward, as sufficient evidence of the spirit that possesses it, and the platform of Minneapolis conforms literally to its hitherto concealed sentiment and bold practices. On the silver question: “the pie:ise statement in the Democratic plank—the dollar unit of coinage of both metals must be of equal intrinsic value —is the best thing in either plank.” Mr. Curtis voices the sentiment of i large party ot Independents, and his decisive utterances have a gratifying significance. CLP J 'ELAND'S STREND TH IN NEW YORK. • In 1884 Mr. Cleveland carried New York against the opposition of John Kelley with Benjamin F. Butler running as an independent candidate to draw off the votes of Democratic workmen. In 1888 he gained 73,000 votes in New York over his vote of 1884 and lost the state only through the deal over the governorship. With no election for governor in New York this year there will be no chance for trading, and as this is the year in which Tammany must vindicate its right to remain in the Democratic party there is no reasonable question of a large increase of the New York Democratic vote of 1892 over that of 1888. The New York Democrats will poll their full vote and they will be re-enforced by many independent Republicans, while Harrison can not poll the full Republican vote of the state, Mr, Blaine has numerous admirers in New York, and Mr. Ilarn&on will not be able to excite their enthusiasm to any great extent. Platt and Platt’s friends will show all the formal the demands, but they will do no uooh than is iiec^ <,Bar y 19 keep their party »iandr ing. . d’hp Republican idea that the Irish .vole pt /jejy Jork can be controlled with money pjay fpcijlt large njpenditures, but the return? will be sipafi. closest survey of the New York field afrojyß no quarto# jg Harrison epn ,ex pect gains, while hl is threatened with losses at every turn.

ADNJ7' NE IF JIEN7CO. If I), mor rats in the Senate do their full duty the bill passed by the lloaso, ot Representatives ou« the tlth of June for the admission of New Mexico as a state will not be put to sleep by the obstructive without a little lullaby music. Having admitted Idaho and Wyoming for the sole purpose of gerrymandering the Electoral College and winning six electoral votes to be cast for Harrison’s re-election, The Republicans are now fighting to keep New Mexico out for purely partisan reasons. The insincerity and dishonesty of their claim that New Mexico is not fitted for statehood are effectually exposed in a letter addressed by Governor L. Bradford Prince of New Mexico to Senator Platt, chairman of the Senate Committee on Territories. In this communication Governor Prince shows from the census tables that, at the date of admission, no Territory except the Dakotas had the population that New Mexico now has. By Porter’s inefficient or dishonest enumeration in 1890, the population of New Mexico was 153,073, and it has been pretty well proven since that Porter’s count did not take in all the inhabitants by some 30,000. By this same census i f 1890 Idaho hvl only 84,385 inhabitants, but little more thau half the number in New Mexico, while Wyoming had only 50,705, which is very much less than half. When the Democrats of the House in 1870 permitted Colorada to <-ome in, though its three electoral votes were practically assured to Hayes, its population by the previous Census was 39,860. Nevada, with a population of only 0,857 in 1800, was admitted in 1801 to help out the Republican electoral vote. And though Nevada now has less than one-third the number of people to entitle it to a single member of the House of Representatives it keeps two Republican Senators and one Republican Congressman in Washington every season am] with unfailing regularity turns in three electoral votes for the Republican presidential candidate every four years. The people of New Mexico are industrious, conservative, peaceable and law-abi|tng citizens of the Uni ted States. That the accusations, proceeding mainly from New England Republicans, charging them with illiteracy and general worthlessness, are false and slanderous is conclusively proven by the facts which Governor Prince cites. In the decade from 1880 to 1890 the population increased 28 per cent and the school attendance increased 283 per cent, though every dollar expended for public schools is raised by direct taxation. As a state, with land grants and other sources of a permanent school fund, New Mexico W 041.4 ijiake stip further strides in public education. New Mexico is rich in natural resources and in all the other elements necessary to a self-governing State.. The only objection sepqbiican Senators have to the passage of the Hogsie bill admitting New Mexico js that woi)|4 1)0 9 Peipocratic state. That is a most excellent reason why Democratic Senators should urge New Mexico’s fair claim* to jtatehood. wsvii- •-"*■7-,-; ’ No other medicine in the wqrli) was given t-uch a test of 1;s 'curative qualities, as Otto’s Cine.
