The only use that England lias for an Irishman Is when he emigrates to the United States and votes for free trade, which he Invariably does.— I London Times.

The honest confession of Henry Watte reon io the Forum is good for his soul if not for his party: "I should he entitled to no respect or credit if I pretended that there Is either a fair vote or count of the vast overllow of black voters in states where there is a negro majority, or that, In the nature of things at present, there can be. There was not when the ballot-box was guarded by federal bayonets. There Is not now."

THE 7 PER CENT. FALLACY.

(ienerul Harrison punctured the 7 per cent, fallacy when he said: Do not allow any one to persuade you that this great contest as to our tariff policy Is one between schedules. It Is not a uuestlon of 7 per cent, reduction. It is a question between wide-apart principles. The principle of protection: the Intelligent recognition in the framing of our tariff laws, ol the duty to protect our American industries and maintain the American scale of wages by adequate discriminating duties, on the one hand, and on the other, a denial of the constitutional right to make our customs duties protective, on the assertion of the doctrine that free competition with torelgn products is the Ideal condition to which all our legislation should tend.

WHAT HARRISON THINKS.

"1 think our worklngmen will wake up to the fact that reduction In their wages, which every candid advocate or free trade or revenue reform admits must come with the adoption of his theories -a reduction variously estimated at from 10 to 25 per cent.—Is poorly compensated by the cheap coat he Is promised. This bull-in-the-Clilna-shop sort iif work that our Democratic friends wiuit to make of the tariff will not do."

In an address made in Chicago in March of this year he said: "I am one of those unlnstructed political economists that have an Impression that some things may be too cheap that lean not tlnd myself In rull sympathy with this demand for cheaper coats, which seem to me necessarily to Involve a cheaper man and woman under the coat. 1 believe It Is true today that we have many things In this country that are too cheap, because whenever it Is proved that the man or woman who produces any article cannot get a decent living out of It. then It Is too cheap."

"1 would rather be William O'Hrteti In Tullamore jail, a martyr of free speech, than the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland in Dublin Castle."Uieneral Harrison. In 1S77. at the Esmonde and O'Connor reception, Indianapolis.

Mr. Brookshire hasn't a word to say about civil service reform. The federal ollii-o holder has been, and is to be, called on to keep him out.

The Main street grade nnd pavement is not a matter for the street car eotnpnny to decide upon. Net our city authorities seem to think so.

The council and the city engineer's ollice are apparently of the opinion that the supply of money is inexhaustible. They proceed with the new police building and the Main street improvement on that theory.

The people ol l.al.iyette, the star city of Indiana. are not slow. They have anew electric street

car line, and got It, too without disgraceful wrangling and Impudent dl/glng up of their streets by Irresponsible companies.—[Indianapolis News.

There seems to have been some "impudent digging up of streets" here, with no one to say the diggers nay.

FOLLOW THE RETREATING ENEMY. Mr. Cleveland's letter of acceptance was different from his message of December last in one particular only. In the message he gave but slight emphasis to the promise that his tariff theory would not affect the home industries. In his letter he makes the same argument against protection, as a feature of the theory, but gives more space to the promise that he will not remove that protection. This he does because of the undeniable trend of public sentiment in opposition to a tariff that is only for revenue.

It is not an issue of revision of the tariff it is an issue of for or against protection. The Democratic party has been held strictly accountable for the doctrines of the message of December with the results in Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont and Maine and with the palpable prospect of its overwhelming defeat in other states in December.

The party had disclosed too much of its ultimate object of securing free trade and is now on the run from lost fields of battle.

THE EXPRESS this morning reproduces from the Indianapolis Journal a convincing collection of extracts from speeches and articles by representative Democrats showing the cloven hoof. These expressions were from the heart when the party was filled with courage and hope, and are the better index of its real purposes.

THE ANTE-NOVEMBER ELECTIONS. The only state elections this year whose result may be considered as indicating the drift of public sentiment were Oregon, Rhode Island, Vermont, Arkansas and Maine. The net Republican gain in the aggregate is fully 20 per cent.

In Oregon a special effort was made to carry the state for the Democracy and well known agents were sent there to manipulate matters. Oregon increased its Republican majority by more than 300 per cent. Rhode Island did much the same. In Arkansas, in spite of bull-doz-iDg and ballot-box frauds, the Democratic majority was 10,500 as compared with 4~,000 the corresponding election in 1881. It should be said in this connection that in Arkansas this year there was some hope of a fair election, because many of those who had been in the old bourbon party, were with the new movement (all information being that the state was desirous to be relieved of the odium of bourbon supremacy) but the machinery of the election was in the hands of the old set. It is safe to say, however, that Arkansas will soon be cut loose from the solid south. Vermont's great increase in Republican strength is vvell known, and Maine shows that the Republicans without Mr. Blaine, of Maine, as a candidate for president and the consequent state pride, with the Democrats in the federal offices and with an extraordinary effort of that party to diminish the 1881 vote, are strong enough to offset these effects.

To better appreciate the result in Maine the following from a Portland special to the Chicago Herald, the Democratic organ of the northwest, published the morning of the election, is full of enlightenment:

Democrats will be excited to know whether their vigorous exposition of protection fallacies will offset the effect of Mr. Blaine's traditionally magical inlluence. Should the Republican candidate for governor, K. C. Burleigh, maintain his party's customary majority, it will he In order for Republicans to rejoice, but should the majority of fifteen to sixteen thousand be diminished, Democrats all over the country can reasonably congratulate themselves.

That a very large Democratic vote will be polled seems certain. The Republicans are not nearly so hopeful as their opponents.

IS IT FREE TRADE?

3,

This is from the Indianpolis Journal. The incisive and conclusive presentation of the issue of protection versus free trade, in General Harrison's letter of acceptance, has started the whole Democratic chorus to yelping. Tray, Blanche and Sweetheart, every cur of high and low degree alike, is repeating, parrotlike, the assertion of Grover Cleveland that the Democratic party does not mean free trade. Abraham Lincoln said yon could fool all the people some of the time, some of the people all the .time, but not all of the people all the time. The Democaatic party will not be able to do what Mr. Lincoln declared to be an impossibility. The Democratic party is for free trade, always has been for free trade, and is for free trade now, despite these shrieking protests. They meant free trade in the Cleveland message of last December, and in the Mills bill, and they mean free trade in the Cleveland letter of acceptance. We propose to submit some evidence on this question, reproducing a good deal which the Journal once before collated, in answer to an assertion made by the Hon. Wm. H. English, in his speech at the Tomlinson hall ratification meeting, in this city, in July last:

The Democratic national convention of 1856, in Cincinnati, resolved— That the time has come for the people of the United States to declare themselves In favor of progressive free trade throughout the world.

The Democratic national conventions of 1860, held at Baltimore and Charleston, adopted a resolution "declaring our affirmance" of the above declaration. Of the historic record of the Democratic party, Mr. Henry Waterson, the author of the St. Louis national platform, said only this year:

If any man doubts what has been the position of the Democratic party, let him read the official utterances made continuously from 1800 to 1884. This record, begun In 1800 by demanding free commerce with all nations, is followed In 1856 by a pledge of progressive free trade, and closes In 1884 hy the declaration that unnecessary taxation Is unjust taxation. Cowards and traitors we have had from the beginning, but the party has on the Issue held always to the principles of the DeclaraUon of Independence, which was as much an ln8lstance on man's right to exchange freely as It was a demand for freedom of political action. By this record the Democratic patty must and or fall.

The New York World said, while under the editorial control of Mr. Manton Marble, whom President Cleveland appointed to a trusted and confidential mission almost as soon as he was inaugurated:

No protectionist can be a Democrat. Our hope Is In making the Democracy an out-and-out, thlck-and thin, aggressive, Intolerant, fre» trade party, subordinating all Issues to this, and thereby drawing to Itself all citizens who have a true appreciation of this grand principle.

Senator McDonald, a leading and hon ored Democrat, in his speech, in the court house in this city, only a few days ago, said:

I am opposed to the so-called protective system upon the ground that It Is a violation of the spirit and meaning of the constitution conferring the taxing power. I believe that free trade between nations, as between Individuals, is the foundation upon which commerce should rest.

Mr. Cleveland, in his letter of acceptance, speaks of the tariff laws under which the present revenues are collected as "an utter perversion of the power" of the government, just as he spoke of the tariff system in his December message as "vicious, inequitable and illogical."

Mr. Roger Q. Mills, author of the Mills bill, said in congress four years ago: Wealth, prosperity and power will bless the land that is dedicated to free men. free labor and free trade.

This year Mr. Mills said to a delegation of Philadelphia wool merchants: The more confusion the tariff works to business the better I like It, because It will the sooner be done away with. I desire free trade, and I will not help to perfect any law that stands In the way of free trade.

On the 31st of March, 1882, Mr. Henry Watterson said: The Democratic party, except In the persons of Imbeciles hardly worth mentioning, is not on the fence. It Is a free trade party, or It Is nothing.

On the 20th day of March, 1882, Mr. Watterson said: The Democrat who is not a free trader should go elsewhere. He should joint the Republicans.

The Democratic party will make a lree

trade tight In 1884. If It loses, It will make another In 1888. The conflict between free trade and protection Is Irrepressible, and must be fought out to the bitter end. We spit upon compromises, and propose neither to ask nor give quarter.

Grover Cleveland said to Attorney General Cassaday, of Pennsylvania: I believe In free trade as I believe In the Protestant religion.

Allen G. Thurman said in his Port Huron speech last month: Of all the humbugs by which m*n were attempted to be deceived, this humbug of a laboring man being benetittea by a high protective tariff is the greatest.

Speaker Carlisle said: All trade should be

as

free

as

possible.

Secretary Fairchild said: Add to the free list is many articles as possible. Reduce duties upon every dutiable article to the lowest point possible.

Ths Hon. S. S. Cox said: It would be a glorious consummation of tills debate could we only have gentlemen on the other side join this invocation to paper and type and to the hearts of honest men to clear the way for British Cobden free trade.

Senator Reagan said in the senate, on the 11th of July last: There Is another term In which we speak of England as a free trade country. They adopt the polled of liberalizing their commerce. Others suggest that a free trade country Is a country where a tariff Is levied for revenue only. If that Is what the senator means by free trade, then I am a free irader and I take It that most of the senators on this side of the chamber are free traders of that kind.

Henry George said: Mr. Cleveland stands before the country a champion of free trade. Mr. Mills' speech Is a manly, vigorous and most effective free-trade speech.

Professor Perry, of Williams callege, author of "The Principles of Economy," says:

Secretary Mannlrg has dons for free ade In the United States. In the past year, myre effective work than any othe ma In the country. Post master-general Vilas is mi out-sp jken and undoubted friend of tree commeice. President Cleveland will go JUS fast and iii far toward that goal as the people and congress will permit him.

Finally, the Indianapolis Sentinel, on the 29th day or May, 1888, said: What Is to become of the Democrat who believes In protection? asks the New York Tribune. It Isn't a hard conundrum, because the Democrat who believes In protection don't exist. He may call himself a Democrat, or even think himself one, but he Isn't As to what will become of the man who claims to le a Lemocrat, and at the same time advocates protection, his deatiny Is sealed. Unless he reforms he will land In the Republican party sooner or later, and better tooner than later.

This will undoubtedly answer for proof of the general spirit and purpose of the Democratic party. Now for the president's message, the Mills bill and Mr.Cleveland's letter of acceptance:

Of the December message, the Hon. Frank Hurd, the distinguished Democrat, said:

I shall never be able to describe the joy with which I read that message. All I felt was that the issue of free trade Is now decisively brought before the American people and that Its cause was more than half won.

Henry George said in February, last: I look upon the president's message as a free trade document.

The Hon. George G. Vest, senator from the state of Missouri, in a letter to a club named in his honor, written under date of June 2(5, last, said:

Mr. Cleveland, by his message, for which 1 sincerely honor htm, has challenged ibe protected

THE TERRE HAUTE EXPRESS, FRIDAY MORNING, SEPTEMBER 14,1888.

industries of the country to a fight of extermination. It is useless for as to disguise the fact that the fight is to the death, and we would be idiots to ignore it

Of the Mills bill the New York Sun, Democratic authority, said: The Mills tariff bill was in Its conception and purpose, a free trade project.

The Sun also said: Free trade would be the natural, rational, practicable and probable result of the Hills bill, and not at a very distant date, either.

We could collate columns of testimony to the free trade character of the December message and the Mills bill from British newspapers, but desist, reprinting, however, the following from the London Times, which was cabled to the New York World of the 7th of July. Commenting on Mr. ClevelandVietter to Tammany of about that date, the Times says:

It would hardly be possible to put the free trade case more clearly or more strongly, and yet, such Is tne force of words, President Cleveland shrinks from the use of the term 'free trade,' and, In fact, declares that those who taunt him with being a free trader are deceiving the country. It Is cetraln that the arguments which President Cleveland urges are those which Cobden used to employ forty-tlve years ago. and which any English free trader would employ now. We are very glad to see President Cleveland using them.

Of Mr. Cleveland's letter of acceptance, the Louisville Courier-Journal says:

A tariff for revenue only could not be more truly defined. It further says:

It knocks the bottom completely out of the protection tub, and sends a flood of daylight straight through the robber camp. He walks straight into the den of the protection barons and crams the doctrine of a "tariff for revenue only" down their throats.

And the London Chronicle, one of the chiefest papers of England, says of it: It is immaterial to discuss what President Cleveland's crusade should be called. He may give It any name he likes, as long as we know It Is, In fact, a crusade of free trade.

In view of all this, the man or paper that says the Democratic party is not a free trade party, and attempts to deny the truth of General Harrison's terse and epigrammatic putting of the case, is either dishonest or a fool. The people will not be deceived, as the result of this campaign will demonstrate.

NOVEL USE FOE THE CAMERA.

Photography as a Means of Getting Evi ilence ill a Divorce Suit. August Kuch married Annie

Schneider

about three weeks ago, says a New York special, and now not only wants an absolute divorce, but seeks $10,000 damages from his old-time friend, Gottfried Landsmann. September 1 Mrs. Kuch went to the Catskills, and Landsmann visited her. The husband became suspicious of the relations of the couple, and made up his mind that his wife was unfaithful to her marriage vows. He consulted an attorney to see whether he could obtain a divorce. He was informed that it would be impossible for him to do so without far better evidence than his suspicions. Believing that he could obtain the necessary evidence he asked the lawyer to go to the Catskills with him. They started last Thursday, taking with them a man who could act as witness in case of necessity. Mr. Kuch, who is a photographer, packed up his camera and procured some powder to use as a flash light, determined to obtain novel and convincing evidence of the opportunity offered, and his fears were well founded. He was accompanied by four men and discovered Mrs.Kuch, his wife, sleeping peacefelly in his friend's arms. He quickly adjusted the camera to preserve the picture as he saw it. The flash light took the photograph and roused the couple. The next moment there was a big row and a broken head. Now a divorce is sought.

THE FACTS ABOUT COTTON.

How it Home Market Increases the Product. General J. R. Chalmers, of Mississippi, delivered a speech at Little Rock, Ark., a few days ago, says the Indianapolis Journal, in which he made some strong points in favor of protection. Referring to cotton, in which many of his hearers were personally interested, he showed that the cotton crop of the country brought an average of $55,000,000 a year more for the six years ending in 1880 than for the six years ending in 1860, and yet, while the product was steadily increasing, the price was not lowered. This could only come from an increased demand for cotton, and this, in turn, came from the growth of home manufactures. Statistics show that England took less cotton from us in 1880 than she did in 1860, and that the whole foreign demand for our'cotton increased less than :i per cent, in twenty years, while our production of cotton increased 22 per cent. The speaker continued: "Now. let us see what kept up the price while production was so largely Increased. Our home consumption was In 1860 964,628 bales In 1830, 1,795,334 bales, an Increase of 86 per cent. And during the same period all cotton goods which the southern farmers consumed were reduced in price 28 per cent. These so-called protection robbers, by their thirp competition, compjlled the forelg -r to pay 2 per cent, more for cotton In 1880 uian he paid in 1860, before protection began, and it the fam time furnlsned the planter wan cotto I goods at Z8 percent, less cost.'

It is such facts and figures as these that are rousing the American people to the criminal folly involved in the proposition to substitute free trade for protection.

Crammed on English Documents. An occasional correspondent from Milwaukee sends the Inter Ocean the following curious coincidence in the language of a portion of President Cleveland's second letter of acceptance and a sentence in one of John Bright's speeches. Our correspondent says it was stated that of those who translated the Koran, several turned Mohammedans, and asks: "Has Mr. Cleveland been reading English free trade so much as to have some of John Bright's language photographed on his mind?"

Cover Cleveland's letter of acceptance for a second term says: "The world doei not afford a spectacle more sublime than Is furnished when millions of free and In elllgent American citizens s-lect their chief magistrate, and bid one of tht-lr number to tind the highest earthly honor," etc., etc.

John Bright's speech at Rlchdai", England. December 4, 1864:

Kvery four years

there springs from the vote created by the whole people a president over that great nation. I think the world offers no liner spectacle than this," etc., etc.

Indiana to the Front.

Another Indianian to the front! Thoe. M. Patterson, nominated for governor of Colorado yesterday by the Democrats, is a Hoosier born. He studied law in the inspiring air of the great central state and lived in those two charming Hoosier towns, Crawfordsville ^the "Athens") and Covington. Indiana will keep right on supplying the country'!, great men. She has her hand in.—[Indianapolis News.

Washing Away aContinen The average discharge from the Missouri into the Mississippi is estimated at 170 cubic feet per second. Thiswould be 500,000 cubic yards per day, and 180,000,000 cubic yards per year. At flood stage the sediment has reached the enormous amount of 4,000,000 cubic yards in one day. This would make

a bank twenty-three miles long and 100 yards across, and 1,000 miles of such levee in a year. When the united rivers pour into the gulf, the output of soil annually^ is twice the above amount. The meaning of such figures it is impossible to measure. One hundred and fifty cubic miles of the continent tumbled annually into the sea by one watershed! The wear and waste of cultivatable soil is enormous. But the great problem for man is how to control the mud-laden waters so that they shall not destroy ruthlessly on the way to their discharge. —[St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

After the family has dined not a soul will touch a mouthful of meat or bread or taste any drink until 7 o'clock Saturday evening. Five days later will come the feast of the tabernacle. Only the orthodox Jews observe these feasts and fasts, and only about one-half the Jews are orthodox.

A something came from somewhere, I know not what •At least I thought't was from there.

And dreamed It did.

Was it a song, a vision, A look, a word? 1 can not make decision

But when unheard.

Unseen, unnamed, yet sighed for. I felt it go Then what It was I cried for, 'i

I could not know. —[Madeline S. Bridges, in Puck.

There are 1,200 prisoners at the Illinois penitentiary at Joliet, a smaller number than have been confined there at any time in the last fifteen years.

Mrs. Hitt, wife of the Illinois congressman, wears some of the most elaborate toilettes seen in Washington. All her dresses are made in Paris, many of them at Worth's.

Mrs. James Brown Potter has discarded the bustle. Her self-abnegation is wonderful for her dress was the only thing about her which produced any bustle in the theatrical world.

F. H. Button has just been fired from the post-office at Corry, Pa., to make a place for a Democrat. He was only a damaged button, anyway, having been knocked all to pieces in the war.

Mrs. Carrie B. Kilgore is the only woman lawyer in Philadelphia. She has an enviable reputation at the bar, and there is not a judge in the city who does not respect her legal ability.

Mrs. Cleveland writes to a lady in Allegheny, who had named a baby for her: "I ought, perhaps, to tell you that I'm never called 'Frankie,' although my intimate friends sometimes call me Frank."

Mayor Ames, of Minneapolis, went chicken hunting last Sunday. He didn't bag any chickens, but a doctor has since had a picnic in exploring a lead mine which an awkward companion planted in the mayor's leg.

The Rev. Father T. F. Richardson, of Cedar Rapids, la. a victim of somnambulism, fell from the window of his room in the fourth story of a Dubuque hotel, early yesterday morning, and died without recovering consciousness.

Rhoda J. Daniels has obtained in a San Francisco court a divorce from her husband on the ground that he has six other wives living. The parties were married in Rock Island and Mrs. Daniels was the widow of a soldier named Spalding.

Ralph King, a Kansas City 10-year old, is kept under lock and key in his father's house for the reason that when at liberty Master Ralph is an incorrigible horse-thief. He has been arrebted many times, but always discharged on account of his youth.

Eli Wright, a salooifkeeper at Y'oungstown, O., has received from the war department papers which prove him to have been the youngest enlisted soldier in the late war. He entered the service when he was 12 years 1 month and 1(5 days old.

S. A. Haines, of New York, president of the Commercial Travelers' Temperance League, has been on the road since 185(5. He is now delivering a lecture entitled "Lend Me a Hand." If he is satisfied with one hand he is an unusually modest member of his profession.

H. Rider Haggard appears to be lacking in tact. He recently set the canons of good taste at defiance and made a sorry exhibition of his own conceit by appearing before the curtain of the Gaiety theater, London, after a performance of "She" which had proved a decided failure.

Mrs.. Amelie Rives-Chanler was the belle of the evening at the last Casino hop at Newport. She was the center of attraction at one end of the hall, which was filled with a brilliant throng of people all eager to ^catch a glimpse of the famous authoress. Mrs. Chanler was attired in a rich red gown, peculiarly suited to her style of beauty.

Von Bulow doesn't allow greedy hosts and hostesses to use his service gratis to entertain their guests. He always makes it a proviso before entering a strange house that he Bhall not be asked to play. It is related of the celebrated violinist Ernst that upon being asked to dinner and invited to bring his violin with him he replied: "Thanks! My violin doesn't dine."

Mrs. Henry Ward Beecher is in Brooklyn visiting friends after her summer's outing in the country. She has made no plans for the winter as yet, though it is her desire to have a home of her own again, and she is making preparations to that effect. She will not go to see Mrs. Stowe, her own feeble health and advancing years preventing. She has aged rapidly within the last year.

Farmer Hoard, the Republican candidate for governor of Wisconsin, is said to be inimitable and original in the singing of the rattling old Irish ditty of '•Finnegan's Wake," and the ladies in the meetings of the dairymen will never let him rest until he has given them the song. If the governor should conclude to enliven his speeches with a few of these captivating strains a novel and altogether unique feature would be added to the campaign.

Mrs. Joseph Riggs, widow of one of the Washington banking firms of Riggs &. Co., is about to add her name to the list of American princesses. She is not young nor good-looking, but she is worth a couple of million dollars in her own right, and Prince Ruspoli, who is young, handsome, and poor as the proverbial church mouse, is going to marry to her. He is an Italian, and a real prince of the Roman aristocracy, and not the doubtful kind of a nobleman that most of our rich heiresses and wealthy widows have been accustomed to purchase over in Europe.

In an article which will appear in the November number of Scribner's Magazine General Philip H. Sheridan tells the following interesting story

of

a ride

which he took with Bismarck after the battle of Gravelotte: "Out route led through the village of Gorze, and here we found the streets so obstructed with wagons that I feared it would take us the rest of the day to get through, for the teamsters would not pay the slightest heed to the cries of our

postilionB.

The

count was equal to the emergency, however, for, taking a pistol from behind his cushion and bidding me keep my seat, he jumped out and quickly began to clear the street effectively, ordering the wagons to the right and left. Marching in front of the carriage and making way for us till we were well through the blockade, he then resumed his seat, remarking: 'This is not a very dignified business for the chancellor of the German confederation, but it's the only way to get through.'"

Argument For Woman Suffrage. Mrs. A.. G. C. Bierer, of Finney county, Kansas, is so much of a Republican that she will not accept the Democratic nomination for county school superintendent. Her husband is a Democrat, but that makes no difference to her.
