Lamb's excuse for voting for the Morrison bill is on the order of the poor girls plea the baby was each little one.

II &,:<•. a.

We especially call Congressman Lamb.s attention to the speech of Senator Voorhees, reprinted this morning and beg of him to rise to the plane of reasoning prevailing in it, when next he denounces the tariff policy of the past twenty years.

IF Maria Halpin iB the bold, unprincipled woman the Democrats report her to be, then Bhe is just the kind of a woman who would hang about the White House on all public occasions making "scenes," and demanding the attention of the police, if Cleveland is ever permitted to live in that home of our presidents.

It is now made public that the remarkable editorial entitled "Let it Die," which appeared in the Chicago Times

November

10, 1880, and which

is being largely used this year as a Bepublican campaign document, was written by Mrs. Sullivan, wife of A. M. Sullivan, ex-president of the National Irish League. ,: jj

Our faith like unto the grain of mustard ctncul Kao ot loaf bpan. rewarded and we find on the editorial page the Gazette a reference to the tariff issue. It is not a definite declaration but it is enough. The signs which we have occasionally found in the head lines are borne out in the editorial comment and there is no longer any doubt that our contemporarv belongs to the free traders.

Belva says it is wrong to charge her with being a divorced woman. She is a widow and has been married twice, both husbands dying an easy, natural and happy death, no doubt. Belva says she does not care for ridicule, "but," she added, as an ominous expression came over her face, "they must not assnil me as they have assailed the other leading candidates." We are glad to learn from this that Belva considers herself as one of the leading candidates, and also encouraged in our hope that personal slander is to be checked.

purpose, and will be so used as soon as the next legislature meets and passes the appropriation bills which the late democratic legislature failed to pas&.

The next time Mr. Lamb charges the present tariff system with throwing men out of work let him read the sentence from Senator VoorheeB speech, where he says that the system increased the manufacturing establishments in Indiana from 1S70 to 1880 to such an extent that "at least 75,000 laboring people find employment at wages which support themselves and a quarter of a million others—women and children, the aged and infirm—who are dependent upon somebody's active industry for subsistence." Let Mr. Lamb give this to his hearers as an antidote.

The Gazette, with its usual dilatorinesa, has begun the use of detached portions of the "Mulligan letters," to I prove Mr.

Blaine to be a dishonest man.

It apologizes for its course by professI ing its great respect for Republicans in 1 this city, and its desire to inform them of the merits of the charge, which all 1 other enterprising Democratic newspapers in the country had exhausted as a I campaign issue some time since.

Doesn't the Gazette know that there are later charges against Mr. Blaine, that his kidneys are in a bad condition, that he owns the Hocking valley coal mines, and that he strangled his grandmother earth.' I You must "catch on" with more alac I rity, neighbor, else when election day I comes yon will discover that you have not handled one-half of the stuff that more enterprising newspapers have I given to their readers.

There are those ^ho, like Beecher, Jprofess to admire Cleveland for the sentiment expressed in the remark he is alleged to have made, "Tell the

Truth." The Rev. James Freeman Clarke tells of an hour he spent alone with Cleveland andfdescribes the Democratic fan«ii5ate as bowed down in humiliation and repentencfl for a sin of the past, protesting that for the Uet ten years he had lived a pure and upright life. "H« did not pretend that he had not done wrong he did not wish me to think of him as better than he w#%" eays the Boston clergyman who learned that Cleveland had "shown his repentence in the true way by doing works meet for repent ence." It is held by these canting hypocrites that, though he had done wrong, Cleveland was too high-minded and honorable to lie about it. Now we hold that if

The Gazette of Saturday referred to Mr. Blaine's speech at Columbus, in which he called attention to the fact that the wealth of the State of Ohio had increased from $1,000,000,000 in 1860 to $3,200,000,000 in 1880 under a protective tariff, and says that "Noth ing could have better illustruted the evils of the system Mr. Blaine cham pions than the notorious condition of affairs now existing in Ohio." This is a common argument of the free traders like our evening friend, and is meant to have an effect where an appeal tp the facts would not answer the purpose. If our opponents propose to put in the balance the "hard times" or lulls in trade that havd come over the country since the election of 1860 brought the Republican party into power, and with it the present tariff system, we propose to put in the other side such facts as the one which Mr. Blaine stated, and to base the test upon a period of yeara.

We could with much propriety charge that such depression as now exists in this country is-tlie result of the effort of the Democratic house to break down the protective system. We were in the miust of great prosperity at the time of the election of 1882, when the Democrats obtained a majority in the house. With the election .e —ii—i

there was a quick and decided slackening in trade! Manufacturers refused to enter into contracts reaching into the future, capital grew timid, and there was a general shrinkage in trade.

recently, when about to start up his mill, "I don't care whether I run or not, and I would not start up at all if I did not believe Blaine will be elect ed." It is a foolish plea to make to the workingman that the protective system is the cause of the present lull in the business of the country. It is short-sighted.

The true test, as we said, is by a comparison of agiven numberof years when the protective system prevailed, and the same number of years of free trade. And to make the point more direct we simply call attention to the fact that but for the present tariff we would not to-day have our nail mill, rolling mill, car works, and many other industries here. Would the Gazette prefer their absence to an occasional depression? No intelligent man can be brought to

WITH equal force Mr. Lamb might have found fault with the party in control of this state because there are over a million dollars in the state treasury. The money could be called a surplus, and the people could be said to have been robbed of it jUBt as he charged that the money in the national treasury had been wrung from the people and was lying idly there. The money in the state treasury is for a specific I take such a narrow vifw of this ques

tion that he will not see the great benfits that are to be seen. The Gazette was followed the same night by Congressman Lamb in this fault finding with the protective system. We desire to call their attention to the speech of Senator Voorhees in the senate, July 13th, 1882. It is a masterly defense of the system, which he

has

so greatly benefitted Indiana. We would like also to publish his Atlanta speech, but we hnve no copy of it. In that speech he said no man could view the growth of the industries at his, Voorhees', home without believing in the system of tariff that protected and fostered them. We are sorry to say the Senator is not making any speeches of that kind this year.

0-- y.T i-i Extracts from a speech of Mr. Voorhees in the United States senate, July 18, 1882, pp. 5,991, «t seq.

It is not within the range of human skill to so frame a tariff as to result in nothing bat the collection of revenue, nor can human wisom separate its direct and tremendous effects upon the industries and prosperity of the country from the bare naked existence of a tariff. It is at this point that the extreme and contrary viewB now before the country begin to assert themselves. On the one hand there are those who declare their readiness to enact a system of tariff not so much with a view to revenue as to the pro motion and protection of certain great pursuits in our midst while on the ether we hear aloud and persistent cry that nothing but revenue, revenue only, can possibly enter into the consideration of a subject which in fact, however embraces directly and indirectly, in addition to the collection of revenue, nearly all the myriad interests of the laboringand business classes of the United States.

Yet the people of Indiana, with all their tremendous capacity for agriculture, are not content to ignore all the other branches of remunerative in dustry. They are reaching forth their hands, guided by skill and intelligence, to develop all the bounties of nature and to pluck fruits in all the fields of labor. And if in paying a tariff tax for

government

nd that the laws compelling them to do so likewise foster, encourage and protect their .young and growing manufacturers of iron, hara wood, glass, woolen and cotton, they will regard them with favor as the result of wise legislation. Indeed they will demand such an adjustment of the tariff as to insure that end. The figures of the forthcoming census re port for. 1880 make the. following exhibit of the manufacturing industries of Indiana for that year: Number of establishments D. 14,480 Number of hands employed...... 51,989 Capital invested 76,841,728 Amount of wagee paid 24,195,057 Materials 97,842,880 Products ... 185,050,220.

At least seventy-five thousand laboring people find employment in these e» tablishments at wages which support thomselves and a quarter of a million others—women and children, the aged and infirm—who are dependent upon eomebody's active industry sistence.

Sir, am I expected to be blind to such stupendous facts as these in the history of my own state, and to disregard Urtrm in ebaj/iug bbo IcgieUiiou of the country? Am I to be arraigned for claiming, as I do, that while the people of Indiana are paying their pait of a tariff tax for government revenue, they shall have all the protection tairly incident to such a system applied to the vast interests here disclosed And these questions bring me to the vital issue involved in every tariff discussion from the foundation of the government to the present time. The standard of free trade has been raised here and there of late, as it has been occasionally for nearly three-quarters of a century past but whenever it has been

The Boston Medical Journal thinks it is hard to get accurate knowledge from the questioning of most patients, as they often imagine they are being badgered. A sample case of some ol the average questions and replies is given as it occurred before a class: "What did your father die of? "Don't know." "Did he ever have shortness of breath?" "Think he did." "When?" "Just before he died "Do you know whether he had. consumption?" "No." "How old was your father when he died?" One hundred and two."

adjustment of the tariff for the best interests of the whole country it means to take a sponge and wipe out the whole system. Free trade does not mean a tariff for revenue only, any more than it means a tariff for protec' tion it means no revenue at all by

virtue of a tariff. It means direct tax-1

ation to the amount of the $200,000,0001

now collected on imports and paid into the treasury lor the support of the government. It means any army of tax gatherers among the people, from house to house, assessing ana collecting this enormous amount,

Nor have the people of Indiana been informed by those who talk as if they were in favor of free trade, concerning eight or ten millions of dollars which they would have to pay annually under a system of direct taxation, if all the tariff laws were repealed and free trade actually established. I submit the matter to their careful consideration. I think they will decide in favor of a tariff which will do two things, raise a revenue, and as an inevitable incident, foster and protect their incipient and growing manufactories.

To those who say they wonld raise a revenue by a tariff, and in the same breath denounce protection, I reply that the two go together with a certainty and infallibility as the laws of nature which combine the light and heat of the sun. You can no more col-

The farmer of Indiana is not mistaken as to its. true bearing when he sees, as he does every day, long trains of cars laden with, the iron ore of the mountains of Missouri and the regions of Lake Superior wending their way to the great block coal fields of his state, to be manufactured into the best iron in the world. Who knows that the opening of every coal mine, of every blast furnace of every rolling mill, every nail factory, every stove fonndry, every stone quarry, and every establishment for the manufacture of glass, implements of husbandry, furniture, as well as woolen and cotton goods enhances the valoe of every acre he owns, and creates a demand almost at his door for what he has to sell. It is true that he has to pay a tax lor the support of the government in the purchase of articles manufactured abroad which have paid duty, and in articles of home manufacture to the extent of that duty, but he knows be would have to pay the same and a heavier tax under a system of direct taxation, without any compensating advantages of the policy if free trade prevailed.

Therefore, it is a matter of course that he is not manoeuvring to return to his old seat in the senate, which Latham occupies, but does not fill.

All this, however, does not prove that Mr. Conkling's retirement, from politics is to be perpetual. Far from it! No doubt he is now out, but it by no means follows that he will not hereafter go in.

Gawtte.

There is a disease well known in the hosptialsas "housemaid's knee," brought on by too much contact of the knees with hard substances washing ing scrubbing, dusting and the like. Anew development of the disease, which merits the special attention of cricketers, is reported from Nottingham, where William Oscroft, the famous professional, is in danger of losing one or both of his legs. Oscroft, whose cricketing. dayB ended a few vears ago through ill health, was out leg-before-wicket perhaps oftner than any well known player of his generation, and the result of much contact of the hardened ball with his legs haa been to reveal a serious disease. Me W. G. Grace, A. G. Steel, and celebrated cricketers, whose besetting sin is to place their legs where the bat ought lo be, should take warning from the case of Oscroft, and beware of cricketer's calf."
