The Democrats have discovered that the people want free trade, and It Is on just that issue that they are going to «ln the election In Indiana.—[Indianapolis Sentinel, September 6.

The state press has began agitating the lee and salary question, and is urging that a general movement should be begun to secure pledges from representatives that they will vote for the reform.

There are two things that should occasionally be recalled during this cam paign: that Grover Cleveland voted for Know Nothing presidential electors and that Thomas A. Hendricks ap proved the Baxter law.

The story about Mr. Blaine's wealth has circulated until it is now stated that he is ten times a millionaire. Before the campaign is ended Vanderbilt will be a mendicant in comparison with the Republican candidate.

The row with the democrats over the dispute as to what that tariff plank means is growing" fiercer. The New York World says all who assert that Cleveland ever favored the Morrison bill are liars and Morrison's friends say they can prove that Cleveland was their friend in their hour of trouble.

When Carter Harrison with his escort of Chicago "toughs" reached Cen tralia, 111., the other day he WBB received at the depot by shouts of "hands on your money," "look out for pick-pockets" aud other warnings which indicated that the good people didn't like the looks of the delegateg from the Chicago Democracy. ^0

The Indianapolis Journal give the oath that Isaac P. Gray took when he became a mem th -Nothing organization. It is as follows: "I furthermore promise and declare that will not vote for nor give my influence for any man for any office in the gift of the people un less he is an American-born citizen, in £av American-born citizens ruling America, nor if he be a Roman Catholic."

hare yet to find the first German Bepubli who will not vote for Blaine, There is no defection here about the state ticket The Turners acted with the Democrats two years ago, but I understand that now they are with the Republicans.—[Col. Markbreit, of Cincin nati.

As the principal owner of the Volksblatt, Mr. Markbreit meets a great many Germans in Cincinnati—rather more, in fact, than Mr, Schurz carries in his pocket.—[New York Tribune.

Inasmuch as no German Republican newspaper in Ohio has come out for Cleveland, we do not see any basis for the claim that the Germans of Ohio will vote the Democratic ticket this year,

In Chicago, Carl Schurz was asked to discuss the tariff question, but he avoided it. There is a story floating about in Republican circles that some years ago, about eight of them, a meeting at Crown Point, in this state, Mr. Scliur* insisted upon a tariff discussion with the committee people before he would go to the hall where a large audience was growing restless at the delay in the appearance of the distinguished speaker. The latter insisted that he believed in being protected $200 worth before he went the meeting.

The forgery mill is still grinding, The latest is a statement that Ex-Sec retary Fish said he would vote for Cleveland. The ex-secretary writes card in which he says: "I stated very explicitly that I was not prepared to put the Government of the Nation in Democratic hands. And I did not express any censure or criticism on Blaine's. 'doings in congress,' and any reference which may have been made to hia course in the department of state was restricted to a want of concurrence as to the wisdom or policy of some parts of his administration of that office. Being (as am represented as saying) 'out of politics,' did not feel called upon to announce through the publio press for whom I may vote, but as. without any wish of mine, I am thus brought before the public, I may and that I expect to vote for Mr. Blaine."

The Cincinnati Commercial Gazette calls attention to the difference in the wages paid in iron mills as follows:

What would in time be the result if the Democratic free-trade policy was put practice in this country may be seen in the contrast between the wages of laborers in the iron mills of Great Britain and the United States. In Great Britain puddlers are paid $1.94 a ton, here $5.60 in Great Britain shinglers are paid 29 cents a ton, here 77 cents in Great Britain rollers puddle-mills are paid 29 cents a ton, here 68% cents in Great Britain rollers and heaters are paid $1.80 a ton, here $4.80 in Great Britain common laborers are paid from 66 to 72 cents a day, here $1.80 to $1*60 per day, And there is the same difference between the pay of workingmen of all classes of labor in the two countries as between the wages paid in the iron mills of Great Britain and those Of the United Statee. jb

Blaine in his acceptance says this country has great wealth, but he forgot to tell how much remained in the hands of the toiler. No! the greater part of it is in the hands of a few. The laborer is the sufferer.—[Report of Senator Voorhees' speech at Evansvilie.

In laBt Wednesday's Express there appeared the following: Mr. F. Stevereon, of No. 409 south Fourth street, received a letter from England yeeter day, his old home. The letter contained the" price of commodities, among which were enumerated: Beef 23c per pound leg of mutton, 24c per pound. The same meats sell in this city as follows: Beef, lljfo mutton, 12c, and are considered dear at that price

Also the following: Said a gentleman the ether day: "I know an Englishman in Terre Haute who came to Americ^everal years ago. He now owns a house and lot, and his brother, who remained in England, still lives in the fifth story of a tenement."

This testimony conflicts with the statement that the "laborer is the sufferer."

In the United Statee court at Indianapolis Saturday, Senator Harrison punctured the Sentinel'a last effort to make capital out of its libel suit. The senator said that when the, interrogatories were filed his associates in the case, like himself, had no idea thatMie filing of the interrogatories was JRt

as^toheaj^

wag so well known to every lawyer that they did not come within the rales of th? court. It had been the peof the plaintiff that the case would come up for trial soon and in court where he would give full answer to all interrogatories regarding his domestic life. But the defense had served notice of taking depositions in distant states that would necessarily prevent a trial for a month yet. Considering these facts Mr. Blaine would answer the interrogatories notwithstanding the court had not required him to do so.

A subscriber writes to ask if it is true that Mr. Blaine is interested in any coal mineB. He no doubt has read such statements as the following which we found in the Evansvile Courier:

The Hocking Valley has recently been the scene of riot ani suffering among the miners and their families, who were turned out of employment that Huns and Italians might have their places. James ,G. Blaine is one of the men who are resnonsible for this cruel treatment of American and Irisn miners. What do the laboring men of Evansvilie think of Buchaman? Can they vote for him for president?

It has been most explicitly denied that Mr. Blaine has been, or is, interested in the Hocking Valley mines. He is, however, part owner of several coal mines in West Virginia, and with ex-Senator Henry G. Davis, of that state, and other gentlemen (nearly all of whom are Democrats, by the way), he has helped develop a mining region that is proving very prolific. The result is, new life haB been infused into that particular locality, and the people, appreciating the benefits that are accruing to them through the enterprise of the company in which Mr. Blaine is interested, intend votiag for him for president. Hence the alarm of the Democrats lest West Virginia be taken from the Democratic column.

The New York World publishes the following: "To Joseph Pulitzer, World" office, New York: If your dispatch refers to the allegations that I nave written letters Ijo congressmen to influence their action on tariff measures or legislation you may deny it-indis-tinct terms on my authority. "GBEVER CLEVELAND."

This the World uses as a denial that Mr. Cleveland supported the Morrison tariff bill. Mr. Nelson, the clerk of Speaker Carlisle, had stated that it was within his knowledge that Mr. Cleveland wrote to New York members of congress, expressing his favor for the Morrison bill. The World adds to the communication from Cleveland "We trust that this is satisfactory. We also beg leave to repeat that Mr. Nelson is an unmitigated liar, without a shadow of an excuse.'\

This is strong language, but the World must remember that this sort of denial will not satisfy any one who reads with any regard for the meaning of words. Governor Cleveland does not deny that he wroteBuch letters as Mr, Nelson said he did. The governor says that he never wrote "letters to congressmen to influence their action" which forms a very big loop-hole, through which, we believe, he will yet make a forced escape. Mr. Nelson is a careful and painstaking correspondent, and his statement has been partly corroborated by other friends of the Morrison bill.

We expect to see the dispute fought out to the bitter end, but before the fight gets fairly underway lets see what it is about. Mr. Nelson, the pri vate secretary of the Bpeaker of the house of representatives in his zeal for the election of Cleveland told that the latter had written letters which showed that Mr. Cleveland was a free trader like the speaker, Mr. Morrison, Mr. Hurd and all the four-fifths of the Democratic members who voted for the Morrison bill. It is a rather strange way to learn the views of presidential candidate on the chief issue of the campaign but Mr. Cleve land has left us without anything else by which to form an opinion. Mr. Nelson's statement brought out angry retorts from the World and then the dispatch from Cleveland. "So it stands that the World, with an equivocal contribution from Cleveland, defends its candidate from any leaning toward the Morrison people with as much indignation as if he had been charged with being a thief. No doubt the World considers the accusation as serious as if he had been so charged. But what do the great majority of the Democrats think of it? What will Watterson, Cai lisle, Hurd, Morrison, the Sentinel and all those who think with them do, now that in this very offensive manner the World, as the mouthpiece of the candidate for president, says that candidate is not in sympathy with them on the great issues of the campaign

A subscriber writes to the Express and makes a'suggestion in regard to the jt&Y in which the Express should be edited. The frequency of Buch suggestions has made them a subject of bad jokes about newspaper offices like the one which every shallow pate giggles over when he sees a paste pot and a pair of scissors. As a general thing these suggestions are unnoticed but this subscriber has a rather novel idea and we feel like explaining to him why we do not do as he suggests. He says: .'

Why don't you publish extracts from "the Mulligan letter( in the first column on the second page of your paper) as well extracts from Grady's speech* Something like this for instance: 'I will not prove a dead head in theienterprize.' Now give a little something Democratic. I

have

proceeding, because it

been taking your paper some time and don't want to give it up on accoant of the general news in it.

A DEMOCRATIC SUBSCRIBER.

Of course, our correspondent does not mean what he says he is simply trying to "poke fun" at ue but, in all candor, we don't know of any particularly good reason why we should not act upon his suggestion. If he has read the Mulligan letters in the light of reason, he can find no fault with Mr. Blaine^ conduct in the railroad transactions to which these letters refer.

TH1 TEEEE HATTTI EXPRESS, TUESDAY, MORNING, SEPTEMBER 16,

We know it is very easy to accuse Mr. Blaine of corruption and broadly claim that the "Mulligan letteis" furnish proof of the charge and no doubt our Democratic subscriber, like many others who are glib of tongue, has an impression that eueh ia the fact. The

Mulligan letters" established but one fact which is that Mr. Blaine went into the Little Bock & Fort Smith speculation six months after he made the ruling as speaker about which we hear so much and which was made when Mr. Blaine was entirely unacquainted with those -interested in the road. The bill passed both houses unnanimously1 and his ruling was the only one that could have been made without subjecting the speaker to ridicule as a parliamentarian. Well,MrBlaine went into the enterprize and persuaded many of his Maine friends to do BO. When he said he would not prove a deadhead, he meant be would help make the enterprize a success. He did help by getting the capital from his friends in Maine. But what was the result? The undertaking failed and Mr. Blaine, out of his own resources, made good the money hia friends had invested and lost on his recommendation.

The more we consider the" history of the case, the more we are inclined to think it ought to be told frequently, not as Carl Schurz and other embittered enemies of Mr. Blaine are distorting it, but in all its strength when truthfully told, because it shows Mr. Blaine is first an enterprising man and next a staunch friend, such aa few men would have been under the circumstances.

As our "Democratic subscriber" will see, this would be too long an article to keep standing in the place he suggests. Space is very valuable about a newspaper office and we need about all the advertisers leave to us in showing people .why it would be foolish, not to say dangerous, to put the Democratic party in power this year and at the same time give the "general newB" which our friend says causes him to subscribe for the Express.
