passed the manufacturers will have to reduce the price of starch to the people 47 per cent. The manufacturer, it will be eeen, admits that the duty is added to the price of the domestic article. We Iiave shown that his calculation is wrons, and that the reduction would not exceed 23 1-2 per cent. But his admission that taking off the duty will reduce the price of starch to the amount of the reduction, is an admission that the present tax of nearly 100 per cent, is paid, not only on every pound of starch that is imported, but on every pound that is consumed, including the entire domestic product. We leave the Journal to fight - it out with the anonymous manufacturer who is furnishing campaign literature to the republicans, and when it has done with him we should like to have it tell us how a reduction of the starch duty can possibly injure the starch manufacturer, if cutting down the duty does not cut down the price of starch. AVe are willing to wager a dollar against a doughnut that the Journal will not tackle this conundrum. It will just pass it by in silence, as it has some thirty or forty others which The Sentinel has propounded to it on this tariff question. The Journal also says : The Sentinel further says that in the erent f the Mills bill becoming a law starch would be reduced ih price about one-fourth, "no part of which would come out of the wages of labor, Lut would come out of the profits of the manufacturer." Go tell such nonsense to the marines. The starch industry in America has more than quadrupled its product in a decade under protection, until now the American competition has reduced prices of starch to a point where profits are very small. If the Mills bill should become a law the effect would be to admit large quantities of foreign starch, which would obviously displace that much American starch in our own market, and either close our factories or put them on reduced time. If the Journal will consult the census returns it will find that the labor cost of American starch inlSSO amounted to only 12 per cent of the product. The Mills bill lays a duty exceeding 47 per cent on starch, about four times the entire labor cost. "We have the word of the leading starch manufacturer of Indiana that he is not afraid of any competition in the world with a protection of 47 per cent. Ajjain we inquire "what kind of a cause is t'lis that needs to be bolstered up by euch silly and preposterous falsehoods?" Down with monopoly taxes. A Great Moral Issue. The internal revenue tax on whisky has probably done more, since its adoption, than any or all other agencies combined to promote sobriety and temperance among the people. By largely increasing the cost of whisky it has greatly diminished its consumption, and in this way has proved more effective than prohibition whicn doesn't prohibit, or high license, or local option or any other method that has been employed to restrain the use of liquor. According to a recently published treasury report the consumption of whisky in the United States last year was 09,853,201 gallons, a decrease of 65-11,217 gallons from 1876. It is estimated that IS per cent of the quantity cons-imed in 1877 was used in the arts, leaving about 57,500,000 gallons as the amount used as a beverage, or less than one galloc per capita for the population of the Un'.ted States. The Chicago Tribune, in commenting on these figure, says : Now contrast this with the statistics of whisky consumption in the era of cheap whisky be fore the war. In 160 the total consumption of spirits was $9,I68,651 gallons. A smaller proportion of alcohol was used in the arts and manufactures in 18V0 than in 1887. Estimating for what was used in the arts there was drank bout two and a half gallons per capita. The consumption in 1SS7 was therefore but 33 per cent of the consumption in 1860. That is to ay. in the era of cheap, untaxed whisky the consumption of that article was 62 per cent more than it is now. It is not surprising under the circumstances that most intelligent people regard the federal tax on alchohol as one of the greatest moral and temperance measures ever adopted by any legislature. The whisky tax ought to be retained, in the interest of the public morals, even if it cost every penny that it yields for collection. The democratic party says that it ought to be and shall be retained, and that the proceeds shall be set apart for the payment of pensions to the veteran soldiers and sailors of the Union, and to their widows and orphans. The republican party says it shall be abolished in order that the extortionate and oppressive taxes levied on food, and clothing, and fuel, and shelter, and tools, and medicines in the interest of monopoly shall be perpetuated. This is one of the chief issues of the pending campaign. Down with monopoly taxes !

The Rant of a laying Organ. We have shown in these columns that the free trade ideas of Gboveb CLEVELAND mean death and destruction to two of the great interests of the city of Madison, viz.: the woolen mills and boiler and sheet iron manufactories. JladLton Courier. You have 6hown nothing of the kind. In the first place Orover Cleveland has never expressed any free trade ideas. In the next place the ideas he has expressed would, if carried out, benefit the men engaged in the woolen mills, the boiler and sheet iron works, and every other legitimate industry in Madison. Perhaps the Courier doesn't know that the proprietor of the largest boiler works in Indiana Mr. John II. Bass of Fort Wayne a man by the way, who, in twenty-five years' experience as a manufacturer, never had a strike or a lockout in his establishment is a hearty supporter of Groves Cleveland and his so-called "free trade ideas." The Courier will hardly convince anybody with two grains of common sense that Mr. Bass would for one moment advocate a policy that means "death and destruction" to his business. Not much I Down with monopoly taxes 1 Tni New York Herald, a powerful independent journal, declares that "on the Chicago platform the republican party is already beaten, and shamefully beaten." It adds: But if the republican senators and leaders in the house have political genins nd courage enough they may easily snatch victory away from the democrats. If they east aside the ridiculous and and antediluvian high tariff and free whisky plank of their platform, boldly trample it under foot and present a better and more thorough going tariff reform bill than that of the democrats they ran regain their lost ground, and, in our belief, carry the country. This is perhaps trne. If the republicans were to throw their platform to the winds and pass in the senate a better tariff reform measure than the Mills bill (which is far from an ideal bill), t is not impossible that they might succeed in electing Harrison. The people want relief from monopoly taxes, and are probably not so Tery particular through what party the relief comes. But there is not the slight-

est-eason to suppose that the repulieans in tie ßenate will do so wise a thing. If the,' pass any tariff bill at all it will be a, shan and a fraud. The republican party is coder the complete control of the mon-. opdics which dictated the platform at Chfcago, and will compel the senate to do ther bidding. Tho only party which offers the people relief from the burden of war taxes is the democratic party. The "War Tariff. In 1861 an average tariff of 18 per cent, cn dutiable articles was thought to be iigh enough to pay the war expenses of the government and provide adequate protection to American manufacturers. In 1SC2 the duties averaged 30 per cent., in 18G3, 33 per cent., in 1804, 37 per cent. Last year, 1SS7, they averaged 47 per ent. They were higher than in any forner year since the government was bunded, except 1837, when they were also 4", per cent., and 1S00 and 1S08, when ttey were 48 per cent. The following are the official figures for the last twentyeight years, as taken from the annual report of the bureau of statistics of 18S7: ' Jleeeiptt from DuliabU) Per

From 1S71 to 1877 it was 41 per cent. From 1SS1 to 18S7 it was 44 per cent. Until the last ten years the manufacturers were burdened with various internal taxes which have all been removed. And jet they object or the more greedy of tlum do to reductions in the taxes on their products which leave them, on an avenge, with as high protection as they received when they had to . pay heavy internal taxes. We advise our readers who are interested in the tariff question as who is not 1 to file away the above table for future reference. Down with monopoly taxes! - Senator Coko on Iiis' Protection. Among the distinguished men of tho democratic party we know of no one more entitled to the confidence and respect of the whole country than Senator Coke of Texas. His faithful but unobtrusive service in the U. S. senate has shown him to be a strong man of sterling ability. In the discussion which the subject of revenue reform has called out we have not .seen the question better presented nvM:t u democratic standpoint than in the speech delivered by Senator Coke in the senate in April last. Tho effect of the high protective (so called) po!iy upon the agricultural and labor interests of the country is thus tersely but clearly stated and should be read by every farmer and every American laborer in the land: The farmers of this country live harder, wear f Gainer clothing, practice more rigid economy, lave fewer of the luxuries of life, work harder and more constantly, and are more troubled to make both ends meet at the end of the year, and realise less on their lator and capital than any other class of our people, and are the c1;ins upon w hi'.li the protective tariff falls with the mo t crushing weight. The policy of exclusion maintained by our high protective tariff toward foreign nations is a declaration and maintenance of commercial war nuainst them, and i so regarded by them; and yet these same foreign nations are the sole dependence of the American farmers for a market for their surplus producta, and absolutely fix and establish the prices of American wheat and cotton both at home and abroad. The Western wheat-growers and the Southern cotton-producers are to-day and for a number of years past have been reapinz, in the extreme, low prices of their products, the bitter fruits of our tariff policy, and have learned to their great cost that excessive protection to Al ?ncan manufacturers against European competition means a premium for European competition with American farmers, for a destruction of the foreign market for American agricultural products. Mr. President, with the ports of the United States wide open to the influx of foreign labor, which is pouring in daily in immense volume, and mingling in the fierce contention for living wages now goinjj on, with our domestic manufactures walled in and foreign goods shut out by a high tariff, as is virtually the case now, manufacturing capital is the veritable masterof labor, and with each day's accession to our laboring population from abroad becomes more and more absolute. Unlimited competition in labor and the competition of foreisrn manufacturing capital excluded by the tarill' creating a monojoIy for American capital, as thoroughly and completely enslaves American labor as it is impossible for it to be done. Free trade in labor and a tariff tor protection of American capital against European competition is the result and If ijal effect of our protective legislation. The tariff invites labor to our snores with the delusive and deceptive promise of high wages, but takes care to admit no competition with capital. If the time has not already arrived it is not far off when the continued influx of foreign labor and the continued exclusion of the competition of foreign capital will utterly prostrate American labor under the feet of monopolistic American capital. Handicapped by CO Per Cent. In the testimony of Alexander E. KursnEEDT, manufacturer of neckwear, laces, embroideries, etc., taken before President 'Arthur's tariff commission at Long Branch, July 27, 1882, he said : "We have to pay a sixty per cent, ad valorem duty upon it (crepe, the raw material for ruches), and can only make these ruches for consumption within this country. We cannot do any business with Canada, Mexico, or any of the South American 6tates. The European manufacturers monopolize this business, notwithstanding that we have the best machinery in the world, because we have to pay 6ixty per cent duty on the material." "If crepe lisse could be put on the free list we could make ruchings and other similar articles and export them to every civilized country," Report of the Commission, volume 1, page 258. Down with monopoly taxes 1 Tns London Daily News has procured a copy of the Mills bill and is annoyed to find that it is not a free trade measure. "An examination of the bill seems to show," it says, "that while reducing taxation it is more a protectionist measure than the law it is intended to supersede." This is true in the sense that the bill gives American manufacturers legitimate protection, which they do not now enjoy, by

placing their raw materials on the free list and thus enabling them to compete buccessfully with their foreign rivals, who already have free raw materials. The enactment ot this bill would unquestionably stimulate the manufacturing interests of the country, enlarge iron markets, improve the demand for labor and consequently its wages, and promote the prosperity of all the people. The bill, if made a law, would give America a share of the trade which England now monopolizes. It is strictly an American measure, and

don't yon fnrrt if AVar Tariff In Time of Teace. "The rates of duties under the existing tariff fixed for the most part during the war, under the evident necessity at that time of stimulating to its utmost extent all domestic production might be adapted, through reduction, to the present condition of peace, requirine no such extraordinary stimulus." Report of the Tariff Commission, volume 1, page 6. Down with monopoly taxes I A woolen manufacturer at New Albany writes the Journal: "The woolen business is the worst now I have ever known it and I have been in it nineteen years. The tariff agitation is the undoubted cause of it." The first part ot this statement is unquestionably true. The woolen industry of the country is in a demoralized condition, has been so for several years, and is acting worse all the time. A good many mills all over the country are either shut down or running short hours. It is plain, however, that it is not for lack of protection, because the woolen business is protected to the extent of 68 per cent. Neither can it bo because of tariff agitation, because the most prosperous days the woolen interests have ever seen in this country were when "tariff agitation" was running high. The Mills bill gives the woolen manufacturers free wool and free chemicals, with a protection of 44 per cent. The leading woolen manufacturers of the United States say that free wool will revive their languishing business, and give them an opportunity to su,ccePKlully compete with their foreign rivals in the neutral markets of the world. It will open up new outlets for their products and in this way enable them to employ more men and pay better wages than at present. Their net protection will be greater under the Mills bill than it is to-day. With free hides our exports of leather goods amount to ten millions annually. With free cotton our cotton exports amount to fifteen millions annually. With taxed wool we export only half a million of woolen goods annually. Why don't the anonymous New Albany manufacturer in the Journal explain away these significant facts, if he can, before he asks the people to believe that "tariff agitation" is responsible for the depressed condition ' of the woolen industry ? We could fill an entire issue of The Sentinel with statements to the contrary, made by woolen manufacturers themselves. The Journal will probably advertise this article as an "attack on the woolen industry." This is a good deal easier than answering it. It requires less expenditure of brain power, and besides the statements herein made are unanswerable, because they are facts which can have but one meaning. Down with monopoly taxes! When Chicago wa3 in ashes JonN A. Logan introduced a bill in congress remitting the duties on all building materials imported for use in reconstructing tho city. Logan understood perfectly well that tho duty on any commodity is added to its price, and paid bv the consumer, else he would not have asked for tho remission of the duty on building materials for tho benefit of stricken Chicago. His bill passed, but not until the lumber lords of Michigan and Wisconsin had succeeded in getting lumber excluded from its provisions. "If," says Mr. J. Sterlisq Morton of Nebraska, '"free lumber was a good thing for Chicago, after having been burned over only three or four days, or a week, let mo ask why it would not also be a good thing for the settlement, for the civilizing and upbuilding of those prairies where I live, over which the fires have rolled every autumn for a hundred centuries, tintil not a single vestige of anything to build with is left on the face of the earth ?" Who can answer ? Ex-Senator Whiting, for many years the most prominent republican in Bureau county, Illinois, is out for Cleveland. Senator Whiting is a farmer, and has made a thorough study of the tariff question., He believes that the excessive duties now levied on imports are destroying the agricultural interests of the country, and that unless the tariff is reformed all the farmers of the West will be ruined, within a very few years. He will stump Illinois forCLEVELAND,andit would be an excellent idea if he wero to be invited to Indiana to make a few speeches. We know of no man in the country who is so well qualified to enlighten the farmers on the tariff question and 6how them how they are systematically plundered by monopoly through the 47 per cent war tariff. Still they come. N. O. Nelson, head of the N. Q. 2sclson manufacturing company of St. Louis, is out for Cleveland. lie has always been a republican and three years ago was elected to the St. Louis city

council on the republican ticket. Tho company of which he is the head, employs several hundred men, all of whom share in the profits of the concern. Mr. Nelson has left the republican party because he believes tho time has come for a reform of the tariff The republicans are telling the people that the Mills bill takes taxes off of Northern products and keeps taxes on Southern products. This is a rank falsehood." The most important Southern pro

ducts are cotton, wool, sugar, rice, whisky and tobacco. Cotton is already on the free list, although Southern cotton competes with that raised in India by the cheapest labor in the world. The Mills bill leaves cotton on the free list. Texas, the 6tato from which Mr. Mills comes, i3 the second largest wool growing 6tate in the union. Tho Mills bill puts wool on the free list It takes 20 per cent off the sugar duty, and makes a reduction in the rice duty. It leaves both import duties and internal taxes on whisky and tobacco. The republicans propose to leave the import duties on these 'articles, but to take the internal taxes off, thus giving the producers large protection while relieving them of the burdens they would carry. If there is any discrimination in the Mills bill it i3 against the South and not in favor of it. Congressman Fitch, of the 13th New York district, who voted for the Mills bill, was elected a3 a republican. When he made his canvass he promised the people that if elected he would vote to reform tho tariff. He has kept his pledge. An attempt has been made to create the impression that his constituents disapprove of his course, and that he will be defeated f a re-election because of his vote on the "Mills bill. Mr. Fitch, however, has just received a message signed by over 2,800 republicans of his district, which says : We desire to say that you have redeemed your promise to us and our promises made in your behalf to our neighbors and friends who gave you their rotes and elected you by an unprecedented majority. The voters who elected you approve your action, aud will support you if you. are a candidate agnin. and you would in our opinion be re-elected by a much larger majority than you received in ISSti. There are thousands of republicans all over the country who endorse Mr. Fitch's course, and who repudiate the free-whisky-monopoly-tax-platform adopted at Chicago. They will bo heard from int November. Some one who signs his name G. C. Webster, jr., writes to the Journal: At Favetteville, X. Y.. a village of 1,800 inhabitants, where President Cleveland pent his boyhood days, and where he is familiarly spoken of as "Grove," I found that fully 20 per cent of the men who voted for him bnr years ago, have already declared against hira. The almost universal declaration of the people is that they will vote for no measure or measures that are tainted with a free trade tendency. He makes other statements of the same kind about the situation in New York. If they are no better founded than this his prediction that Harrison will carry. -New York is "no good." A private note from one of the leading citizens of Fnyetteville says: I cannot learn of a single democrat of '84 who will not vote for Cleveland in '83 and of the numerous "mugwumps," or in lependent republicans, there is but one to my knowledge who is likely to vote for Harrison. . II. ir. Uewajj:s. Here is a mystery. Mr. McDonald said in his Indianapolis speech that the people were paying annually $1GD,000,00 more revenue than is required to conduct the government, lie said further that the current democratic administration had reduced expenses $10,JU),tm0 annually. These thing sound well alone, liut here's the rub the surplus, democratic figures put it at 120.0UO,Oi0. If this is true we have left $180,00,0000 excess revenue for the three years of democratic rule unaccounted for. AV komo Gazette. What a mare's nest. The "mystery" is a very simple one. The money that the astute Kokomo editor can't traco has been applied in the reduction of the public debt. There are no more government londs redeemable now, and hence taxes will have to come down, or the treasury vaults be enlarged and the business of the country paralyzed. That's the situation which confronts the country to-day. "No Maggoty P.utter." "No Cholera Hogs for the Insane." etc. Out here, in this part of it, the democratic party have been feeding the. nsune wards of the state on the kind of food that those transparencies indicate. Evening AVr. There you go again. We thought it was understood that you favored a clean, honorable campaign. If you believe that any "cholera hogs" were fed to patients or any one else at the insane hospital, you must believe that Dr. Fletcher is a liar, for he stated expressly that it was his duty to inspect meats and that no diseased meat Mas used. If you think that, and we do not believe you do, why haven't you the nerve to say it? If you do not believe it, what opinion have you of your veracity ? Says Blatherskite Finerty's IrLih Citizen : The Mills hill is Southern and English in its every phase. Almost everything raised or manufactured in the South is protected; and almost every exclusively Northern product, like wool or salt, is put on the free list The duty ou cotton is not made very much lower, because cotton is largely manufactured in the South. Just listen. "Wool an exclusively Northern product," when Texas is the second wool producing state in the country. And "the duty on cotton," when cotton is and has been for year3 on the free list. It is ienoramuses like this fellow Finerty. ) who couldn't tell an ad valorem duty from a dvnamito bomb, that talk about the Mills bill being a free trade measure. There is no doubt that, as Mr. Byncm said in a recent speech in congress, tho repeal of the tax on cigars, cheroots and cigarettes would be "a most serious blow to a large body of organized laborers." It would, in all probability, wipe out the cigarmakers' union. Every cigarmaker, if he consults his own interests, will voto against the republican programme, which would take tho tax entirely off of tobacco and manufacturers of tobacco. Jcdge Keip, who was the republican candidate for governor of Tennessee four years ago, is out for Cleveland, Thcrman and tariff reform. Ho has been the most popular republican in his täte, and came within 3,000 votes of an election when he ran for governor. He predicts that Tennessee will give Cleveland 40,000 majority. - Ben Harrison is for taking tho money out of the pockets of the people by unjust taxation and paying it in bounties to the owners of steamship lines for the ostensible purpose of. fostering-trade with South America. All this, while he 6tands on a platform which declares for such an in

crease of the tariff as will check imports from all tho rest of the world, including South America. And yet the Newt has ventured to say, once or twice, that Ben Harrison was not a demagogue. I. A BTSINESS man of this city writes to the Journal: I met wool burer vesterday who has bn over th5 witer In England, t"rnc and Belgium looking after wool for a largo nunufacturln etabliehtnent in Massachusetts to import so soon as the tariff goes off. II nar( no man can no thronen the niauulactnrlng districts of Europe but will say, thank Gon I am an American and in favor of protection. He savi a great many mills are shut down, or running abort time, and many workmen idle. This anonymous "wool buyer " must be a queer kind of a fellow if he can travel through tho highly "protected" countries of France and Ilelgium, where he says mills are shut down or running short time, and workmen idle, and still thank Gon that he is in favor of protection. If in these high tariff countries the mills are idle and the workmen starving, why should anybody be led to thank God that he favors a high tariff ? We should be glad to have an explanation from the alleged wool buyer. The democratic party says: "We favor the entire surrender of the protective system rather than repeal any part of the internal revenue taxes." Journal. Good heavens, neighbor, what an unblushing lie! The Mills bill, indorsed in the democratic platform, and supported by substantially the entire democratic party in congress repeals a very large part of the internal taxes! The same bill reduces the tariff by a beggarly 7 per cent., or from 47 to 40 per cent. Congressman ShivxLey writes from Washington : "Fermit me to congratulate you on the splendid paper you are making of The Sentinel. It should have 50,000 circulation in Indiana." It's going to have, Mr. Siiiveley. Watch the figures and see them grow. One of the leading starch manufacturers of Indiana writes: "The 6tarch manufacturers have nothing to fear from the Mills bill." Has anybody anything to fear from this bill who is enpaged in carrying on a legitimate business in a legitimate way ? Richard Snell, a leading lawyer of Clinton, 111., always an active republican, refuses to endorse the free whisky platform, and has declared himself for Cleveland and Thcrman.
