THE CAMPAIGN TEXT BOOK for 1888 is now ready, and will be furnished on application to the National Democratic Committee, lo West 29th St., New York City. Price sl. In quantities of five cr more 5o cents each. “We favor the entire repeal of the internal taxes (on whisky and tobacco) rather than the surrender of any part of our protective system.”—Chicago platform. “The platform is in entire harmony with my views.”—Ben Harrison. ■ “Unnecessary taxation is unjust taxation.”—President Cleveland in his letter of acceptance. “Trusts are private affairs with which President Cleveland and the people have no right to interfere.”—Blaine in the interest of “Trusts.” “Such combinations have always been condemned by the Democratic party. The declaration of its national convention is sincer ly made, an t no member of our party will be found excusing the existence or belittling the pernicious results of these devices to wrong the people. Under various names they have been punnished bv common law for hundreds of years; and they have lost none of their hateful features because they have assumed the name of ‘Trusts’ instead of ‘Conspiracies.’ We believe that these Trusts are the natural offspring of a market artificially restricted; that an inordinately high tariff, 1 esides furnishing the temptatiou for their existence, enlarges the limit within which they may operate against the people, and thus increases the extent of their power for wrong-

doing. With an unalterable ha- j tred for all such schemes, we count the cheeking of their baleful ope- ! rations among the good results promised by revenue reform.” — President Cleveland in his letter of acceptance. James A. Garfield. “In 1860 the burdens of national taxation were light. All our revenues, including loans, amounted to only $76,000,000. Our expenditures were $77,000,000, and our whole public debt but $65,000,000. In the year 1860 the tonnage of our ships upon the seas was 5,353,868 tons, which was more by 140,000 toii9 than in any other year of our history before or since. Twothirds of our imports were then carried in American bottoms, as were also more than two-thirds of our exports. Our exports that year reached the aggregate value of $400,000,000, which was forty-three and onehajf millions more than during any previous year. Our imports were $362,000,000, decidedly more ban any other year. And I make this statement on the authority of David A. Wells, that in 1860 we were exporting t@ foreign countries more American manufactures than in any other year of our history. * * * * v * Tho fact is, Mr. Chairman, the decade from 1850 to 1860 was one of peace and general prosperity. —Extracts from speech of James A. Garfield in the House March 6, 1878. Ihe cartoon in to-day’s Sentinel fairly talks. —« ♦» —— Ira W.

Read Mills’ defense of his bilb Don Dickinson’s talk, the address of the Democratic National Committee, and other interesting political articles on inside pages of this Sentinel. The Democrats of Jasper county must have lets os money at command if ii be true, as reported, that they subsidized the Rensselaer Democrat to the tune of SSOO cash and 500 paid up subscription-. Goodland Herald. The Herald man is badly coddled. The masses of the Democracy take no stock in the property and Democracy of H. E. James.
