The ‘free whisky* plank is in the republican platform, and eannot b© lied out of it. The following descriptive portrait of Ben Harrison, by Judge Turpie, in the Senate, is readily recognized: The candidate is a well-beloved and chosen representative of that rank and lawless growth of incorporated power whose insolence his principal rival in our State did so much to curb, and which this new aspirant favor.i. He would faithfully defend,protect and encourage American industries—by the highest, most prohibitory,and unneessary restrictions, and by the permitted migration hither of the cheap alien labor of the Chinaman. A man of no inconsiderable capacity, of great mental force and acu--1 men, he has that not often found with these —a harsh intolerance which treats dissent as idiocy.— Deeply touched and tinged with the prejudices of an exclusive class aristocracy, he belongs to that group of reactionary statesmen, traditional paternalists, whom the people have so often rejected, and will again. Senator Turpie reads the republican candidate as if from an open book.
