Corbett was disturbing the church goers of the Sunny Southland with his noisy special train. The Republican party is attempt-! ing to make political captal out ot the Indiana Tax Law in true demagogical style. We hear the republicans denouncing the law in such emphatic terms that we sometimes wondered how the bill ever became a law while a'sTa“uhcn"Republican eat in the gubernatorial chair. We would have thought that he never would have approved of the measpre, but he did. Our republican frii-nds would feign make their opponents believe that their interests i.i the fax measure died when the goverricv passed away. But let us pause and think. How did the bill ever get through the Senate? We learn that it passed (hat body almost unanimously. Only .four dissenting votes, two republicans and I two democrats. But what is strange about that?. Nothing all.- These men at that time voted- their sentiments and thought it would be a .good law. The Republicans have since conceived a plan to make the Jaw odious and turn the condition of things to practical eftect. I hey are now pointing to the law and asking democrats how they can support a candidate who would help to enact siydi a law. They seem to foriret that tbev have a candidate y-ho support! d the m< isure. Thl« man is none other thin Theodore Shoekncy. of Randolph county, the Republican candidate for LieutenJ . ant Governor. How inconsistent!• Ask a democrat to drop a candidate " on the aeconnt of some alleged offense and urge him to support another who was guilty of the same Offense!

The ore is wors h’p r acti«p, tlie labor is free of : benth ] p r ot/t ax on manufactured invitf , e leaqfelly shuts out competian th s ves the home manufact?i of trflix prices. There is no tyes (Wider that republican majartyJJrs of this arrangement are van Whig in “plants.” If they can m un/lie law intact there are mill- ? megin it for them. The primal eauft, that of developing our tin oynes, is quite lost sight of, and Kith reason. The report ‘of the Knitted States geological survey on [mineral resources, as carefully, guarded as is possible, is yet obliged to declare that the Tvmescal mine (which was boomed for the purpose of unloading stock on English investors who were greedy for a shave of the.tribute decreed by government) produced, last year, only sixty tons of pig tin. Nfo-.- tin has been produced, at the Temescal in 1892, and it is - doubtful if the' mine is worked again. The English owners called their man home, mon'tlis ago. -The-Smrth Lhrkotrrmftre is not pro,]active of result-! as yet, stock has Mvreciated and the prop is knocked ITI.-Jko metallic tin has been taken *7 Trora the Cash mine m Virginia and the prospect is not flittering. This is official report ot the geologists on all the tin mines that have been discovered in the country. Now the one question as to tin is: Will it pay the 60,000,000 of consumers t) submit to enhanced price on wares io assist a few men to run dipping plants, with foreign ore for material and imported workmen to perform the labor? It is good bus-ua-s sense to do this? Mr. McKinley, glorifying his handiwork, says: “we let iii free the articles that cannot be produced in this country.” Tin ore is free; if we cannot produce tin ore in appreciable quantities, why should the people be taxed to bring ore and Welshmen across the water to have the mere acts of jnelting, dipping and finishing per. termed here? Tne already overfed ironmongers, who would furnish rolled plate under special tax, are the chief beneficiaries. The men who own plants get a share by virtue of legislation which puts the matter of management' entirely in their own hands. The question for consumers to answer, to themselves, to the country, and at the polls next November, is, will it pay them? Does such course make for the.general prosperity? Already the canning industries have spok,en. They have felt the pressure and uttered pro test. Who -pays_this $15,000,000 yearly tribute? Who gets the benefit of it? and do returns warrant the existence of such a tax? Jt is no hurrah cry of unpratiotism that “tin cannot be made in America.” But, shall we insist upon bolstering its manufacture at continual loss to those who foot tlie bills, and gain only for a special few? An organ boasts that ten thous ami woikmen from closed mills in i Wales are on their way to the Uni ted Stales. In the hold of their own. or anolb. r comes tin ore from '.ijc m::.es <■: Wales, and in tlie ; , finer and - ; ? i. r ..vessels come, their English employer--', to get the benelit’of tribute to be paid by people of tins country. A little serious thought on.the subject would result in more apprehension and less exultation. It is understood among Massachusetts Democrats that Gflv. Russell is again to lead the state ticket. ■: lis five ternis as governor have lieen eiifhf&ntly successful aiid satisfactory and his popularity is how greater than ever. That he will again b'e elected, is confidently expected.. A pleasing episode of the j coming nominating convention is | 'Be fayt v that Gov.

IIAIiIiISON 8 LETTER OF. ACCEPTANCE. The extraordinary length of President Harrison’s letter formally accepting the nomination for re/election tendered him by the National Republican convention last June would of itself be sufficient to create the impression that the president believes either that his cause is a weak one requiring specious argument to pupport it, or that his party’s record is so bad as to need the best defense which its chosen leader can make, A perusal of the remarkable document will only' serve to strengthen this impression. The president discusses or attempts to discuss every question that is likely to be made an issue in the campaign, from the pearl button industry to the report on the increase of workingmen’s wages by the McKinley bill recently submitted by New York’s “Democratic’ labor commissioner, and undertakes to substantiate some of his assertions by quoting from British trade journals. Finance, the ocean-carry-ing trade, reciprocity, the protective tariff, free trade tin plate, pearl buttons, South American commerce, lead ores and the force bill are prominent in the almost interminable list of subjects treated in the president’s letter. He advances no new argument in support of the protective tariff. His insinuating appeals to the selfish interest of every section of the country to sanction this wholesale system of plunder, because of the possible benefit to some particular industry, are worthy a man occupying his Tistieguislied position. His prediction thatAmencan tin plate factories will be yielding 200,000,000 pounds annually by the beginning, of next year is simply a repetition of the w ild statements which the tin plate liars have been making for the past two years. On the question of shackling the people of the South with the provisions of the infamous force bill, thus putting an end forever to free and fair elections in that section, tlie president does not recede from the extreme position taken by him in his messages to congress in 1889 and 1890. He expresses himself as unqualifiedly in favor of such legislation. The nogro vote of Illinois is said to be badly split up and it is claimed by the Democratic State Central Committee that at least one-third of this vote will be cast for Cleveland and the Democratic state ticket. There seems to be a good reason for this alleged break in the negro ranks in Illinois in the contemptuous indifferences Governor Fifer has shown to their demands tor recognition. But the Democratic committee of our neighboring state is wise in not basing its hopes for a Democratic victory there on changes in the negro vote. A considerable percentage of them may vote for Cleveland and for Altgeld, but the mam reliance of the committee is on the tremendous stampede of the German Republicans and the Scandinavians to the party that has always set its face against the intrusion of the state into the homes of its citizens for the purpose of regulating the management of the household and of the family. This is what the compulsory education bill done in Illinois. The state not only compels children to attend school and fixes the studies to be pursued, but it arrests, fines and imprisons the parents of children who are pursuing studies in private or parochial schools not prescribed by the state. No wonder tens of thousands of German Lutherans who have heretofore voted the Republican ticket are now zealously supporting the Democratic candi- ; dates. The Democratic party believes in the freedom of all citizens to fashion their lives to suit themselves provided they do pot interfere with the rights of their neighbors to the peaceful ami. orderly enjoyment of life and property. ‘ .TiiEdetermiuation- oflhe-Dcmo--cratic National Committee to conduct the western campaign from Chicago disconcerts the Republicans'. They cannot fully understand the aggressive presumption of the movement which carries the war into Egypt. The hitherto Republican states of llinois, Wiloonsiit lovfa, Minnesota and the Dakotas are to be made Democratic fighting ground, and the men who best understand the foetal situation are 4 ’to he in charge of the work in Chicago. Congressman B. F. Cable, of Chicago, will be ip command of the western army. He is a thorough organ- 0 izer and well fitted for the chair manship. A sharp and aggressive campaign will make several western states uncomfortably doubtful for the Republicans.

THE DISGRACE OF THE TO IIW. What the Chicago World says for Chicago, every other considerable city in the country can say for itself and its maiiairement: It is a disgrace to the whole people of cities that the universal cry goes up: “clean the streets and alleys, take care of the garbage; the cholera is coming.” Officers are appointed to see that this is done, not only when an epidemic threatens, but every year, every day and at all the time, and money is appropriated for that purpose. If the men are inefficient, discharge the men and enlarge the sum. If gross neglect means cholera, any neglect, in measure, means unnecessary sickness and mortality. The conscience of the people seems to have become so callous that a broken pledge of duty, or neglect, or peculation, is sort of smiled upon as a part of “polities,” and polities has fairly become another name for trickery. The Herald, independent in its conclusions and fearless in its utterances, tells the city lathers that the woman’s league, in April last, went over the city and reported upon its condition, and offered the, suggestions and would have enforced the demands if it had the power—for the action which they ignored and postponed until cholera was shouted in their ears. Ordinary typhoid was not enough to arouse them. And the league of women is Still at work, investigating and placing results before the citizens through the medium of the newspapers, timt.l shame the city officers, the more thavtheyTHust face uncontradicted facts, and thus confess their own criminal dereliction. Is there any hope for municipal reform? Decatur is vitally interested in this question. LABOR DAY. The Labor day demonstration was an unprecedented success, largely because the laws of the state compelled business to suspend. Il is not necessary to remind organized labor what was the po.itical complexion of the legislature that passed the law making the first Monday in September a legal holiday. Workingmen have long known that no Republican legislature ever enacted a labor law in this state. The eight-hour law, the anti-Pinker-ton law, the law compelling employers to pay weekly wages, the anti-“pluck-me”-store law, the coal screen ami weighing law, the law prohibiting blacklisting and to compel employ ers to pay at once employes who quit before pay day, the anti child labor law, the law to protect union labels, the repeal of the conspiracy act drafted by Mr. Harrison in 1881, the school book and Australian ballot laws and the legal holiday act have ail been placed on the statute books by Dem ocratic legislatures. Gov, McKinley declines to debate the tariff question with Con--gressman Bynum, of Indiana. In the classic language of John L.. Sullivan, Major McKinley seems to be a “bombastic sprinter.” The circumstances attending this challenge and declination are all discreditable to McKinley. He himself announced to speak upon the tariff question to the employes of the protected industries in Bynum’s district. So thoroughly convinced of the utter fallacy and iniquity of the protective idea is Mr. Bynum that he did not hesitate to go before his own people and confront the Prince of Protection upon McKinley I ’* single topic of discussion. To decline the proposed debate shows weakness and cowardice upon the part of the advocte , of monopoly. The seizure of the Gilbert Islands by the British government was attended with a display of brutish authority which calls for investigaTidU fiy vur own government. Upon the merest preteiisc a British man ol’-war d< throned the king and insulted foreign citizens, many of whom are American tradesmen. -The islands are fifteen in nutiibci, and the total population native and foreign, is about 35,000. Although the Gilbert Islands are somewhat unproductive and largely composed of coral reels, still this country must view with grave concern the aggressiveness of England in the Pacific. The trade which naturally belongs to the United. Sfateg is diverted to other channels and British naval stations are established in every part of the va#t Pacific to menace our Western coast.
