entreaties, and nothing remained for them but to buy bonds at fancy premiums, deposit the money in banks where it would be available to the business men of the country, or lock it up in the treasury at the imminent peril of precipitating a financial cr'wia, or at least a very severe stringency in the money market.

Among these three evils they chose the lesser ones. They have purchased nearly 10.000,000 in bonds, and they have deposited a part of the remaining surplus in banks, taking care that the money should be equitably distributed in all sections of the country. No particular bank has been selected, as in the days of Sec'y John Sherman, for a practical monopoly of the government deposits. The course of the administration in this matter has been aa open as the day, and is absolutely above criticism. And Maj. Calkins' attack is not honest or decent politics. r The Tax on Salt. A feT years ago the Indianapolis Journal declared that the tariff on salt was "a Striking example of bad legislation" and that it had "never found any man with cheek enough to defend it, who was not himself personally interested in the salt business." The tax on salt is certainly an infamous outrage. It is a burden on all tho people, for everybody uses salt, which is absolutely necessary to the maintenance of human life. Farmers have to feed it to their Btock,and the tax makes aconsiderablo item in their expense account. Salt is largely used in the great meat packing industry of the country which, by the way, in one of the leading interests of Indianapolis. The tix on salt is kept up for the benefit of a handful of monopolists in New York and Michigan. Labor derives not a single penny of benefit from it. The government has no use for the revenue it yields. The salt manufacturers of the country are alxnobt all of them millionaires made so by this shocking abuso of tho taxing power of the government. The salt duty is absolutely indefensible from any point of view, and its repeal would be a benefit to all the people. Salt ought to be on the free list where the Mills bill puts it, because it is an indisponible ingredient of the people's food, and an important raw material of a leading manufacture. Seventeen years ago Jlr. Eugene Hale of Maine, now a senator, introduced a bill in the house to repeal the duty on salt. The bill was, it L said, inspired by Speaker Blaine. I was supported bv Mr. Bcrrows of Michigan, Mr. "Tom" Reed of Maine, Mr. JiiscoK (now senator) of New York, Mr. II "ar (now senator) of Massachusetts, and ur.ny other prominent republicans. Now, . .!". of these gentleman, with their party at ih.'ir back, are fighting the proposition to put salt on the free list. Mr. Pig Iron " :r.i.EY, speaking for them says: "Sir, I .ieve that no blow could be struck at independence and prosperity of our o:intry by a single act of congress that w-uM be more fatal than to put salt upon tV free li.-t," an I points triumphantly in f-r.port of his views to the Chicago ri itform, which declares explicitly Ctf.;!nt making anything free except t Voacco and whisky. And Candidate Ben II vr.msos indorses this platform, and thus fit dares himself against freesalt and for uve whisky. We wonder if Ben Harrisonor his organ will muster "cheek" enough to defend his position upon the wit tax before the people in this campaign. Down with monopoly taxes 1 Protected" Pauper Labor. The pay in the cotton factories of Naples is twenty rents a day; of the Neapolitan marble and granite cutters from forty to finy cents a day, accoi ling to skill; of coachmen, thirty cents; of vomen in lace factories, ten cents, and eirU, seven cents; of soldiers in the army, two dollars a month. Of all the workmen in the glass-works of Italy, only the skilled blowers receive as high as a dollar a day, and laborers on farms, hoeing or making hay, from fifteen to eighteen cent a day, working from sun to sun. "We take the above from a republican campaign document which is being circulated in this state. The pauper labor of Italy and Germany, which is so graphically described in this campaign document, is not free trade labor, but highly "protected' labor. Germany and Italy discourage importations by heavy duties on the articles which they produce. And according to this republican authority the protected German women saw wood in the streets for fifteen cents a day, and Italian mechanics receive from twenty cents to fifty cents a day. And yet Bex Harrison and the rest of the tree whiskyites have the effrontery to tell the American workingmen that high tariff makes high wages. The New York Commercial Bunt-tin, a non-partisan commercial paper, in its issue of the 14th, reviews the business situation at length. It eays the situation is in every way healthful and encouraging. "The demand for tonnage and rolling 6tock is without precedent for several years. The industrial situation is reflected in a favorable light by tho carefully compiled reports of mill operations, and by the returns from labor organizations and other sources. They all indicate a r ieady increase in manufacturing activity and in the extent to which labor is cmployed. The central feature of the situation is the spreading belief that the country is emerging irom depression into the better times assured by large crop yield, with foreign demand for our surplus, and that means will be found for enpplying the money necessary for crop movement and fall business, and securing to the agricultural, industrial and commercial classes the benefits which tho favorable outlook promises." And still republican demagogues say that "tariff agitation" has paralvzed the business of the country. But they are not talking this way so much as they were, probably because they found out that the people were laughing at them. The democratic procession Saturday night was the biggest thing of the kind ever seen in Indianapolis. If Ben Harbison didn't see it he missed a big thing.

IXDIAXA AND THE TARIFF. EXPERIENCE OF ONE HUNDRED YEARS now Our Ftiple Have P&itl Their Money to the Monopolists of the Eat nud liorrowed It Dark at High Rates of Interest The Mortgage Record. Before considering tho statistical records by which the comparative growth of Indiana and the manuiacturing states is shown, it may be well to run over some of the general features of our development which are largely within the knowledge of every one. The era of low tarilf taxation, immediately preceding 1S00, was also an era of internal improvement. Many of our railroads were built at that time. Many men now living aro familiar with tho history of this railroad-building, and indeed it differed little from the same work as done now, except that people generally are not eo liberal in giving aid as they used to be, and for very excellent reasons. A road would be projected and surveyed; the people would take stock and grant right of way; cities, towns and counties would vote" bonds. The bonds donated would usually be sold ; and the road, as fast as built, would also be bonded, and the money realized be added to the con struction fund. After some years tho bonds would be foreclosed, the stockholders shut out, and the railroad passed over to the landholders, who forthwith would proceed to reorganize the road and bond it to themselves. In due time, when the floating debt of the road had become large enough to mako it an object, tho bonds would be foreclosed, the road re organized and bonded again, and the unsecured creditors frozen out. This cheerful process was varied occasionally bv some ppecial maneuver for the purpose of affecting the market value of the stock and bonds. At one time a railroad company actually applied to tho United States court at lnuianapons lor a receiver lor it-self, and at the same time instructions were sent away for transactions in its stock by those who were advised of the move. It so happened that Judge Gresham beeame informell of the true inwardness of the affair and knocked this little scheme in the head. But what has all this to do with the tariff? Nothing; only the poople who were conducting the infant industries had grown wealthy by the timo we were ready to build railroads; and these same kind of people of the r.at bought the bonds and in due course of time gobbled up the railroads. It is all right. If people want to tax themselves to make other people rich no one can stop them. This is a free country. After one gets rich he must be expected to use his money for his own advantage. Capital has rights that must be respected, for this is a land of law and order, and if anybody gets pinched in these little business " transactions, he ought to take it philosophically. If he thinks that capitalists have more privileges than other people, let him join the capitalists and partake with them of the bounties which a paternal government has provided. Do not understand me as objecting to the honorable course of the people who built fortunes on tariff taxation. They have always shown a readiness to oblige the less favored classes by loaning them money on good security at the highest rate of interest. This was particularly noticeable just after the close of the war, when an inilated currency and the sudden return of great numbers of men to the ordinary vocations of life had stimulated all sorts of business enterprises to the highest degree. You all remember how Kastern companies loaned money in those days. The exact extent to which mortgaging was carried can not be certainly told, but it is greater than the ma jority of people have auy idea of. One estimate is mat one-tnird ot the real estate in Indiana is mortgaged, and I think this is not far from tho truth. Perhaps some idea of it can bo obtained from the amount of mortgages recorded. In Marion county there are 27G volumes of the records ot deeds, 1123 volumes of the records of land mortgages, and 3volumes of the records of chattel mortgages. The increase is at tho rate of five to six volumes of deeds, four to five volumes of land mortgages, and two to three volumes of chattel mortgages yearly. Now, Marion county is in a better "condition comparatively, "in this respect, than the average of the counties of the states better probably than the averago in any Western state and, in one way, makes a better showing for the last few years than ever before. This is in the matter of building association mortgages, which are now largely increased in number and tho advantage consists in the fact that the capital loaned by them is home capital, the interest paid remains at home, and they are more generally paid and less frequently foreclosed that other mortgages. It is commonly answered to the great showing of mortgagr- that they are continually being Eatistied as well as made. Our state bureau of statistics endeavors to collect every year the number of mortgages made and tho number satisfied, and usually succeeds in getting reports from about one-half of the counties. On these reports the newspapers of various localities congratulate their readers on the excess of satisfactions over new mortgages, or dcploro a contrary condition, as tho case may be. On an average, in general, there will not be found any great di fl'erence between the two amounts. This is all very well in its way, but back of it lies another question of much more importance: IIow arc these mortgages satisfied? Did it ever occur to you that mortgages

1 jajufrns&x '

were satisfied when they were foreclosed, the property sold and tho proceeds applied to the judgment? It would be very difficult at the present time to get at the amount of satisfactions made in this way, but perhaps we can form some idea of it. Formerly the foreign loan companies that did business in this state used to bring their foreclosure Buita in the U. S. court and oblige the defendants to come to Indianapolis to make their defense. This became eo oppressive to people in the outside counties that in 1S79 a law was passed requiring all foreign companies to sue in the county where the debt was contracted, and so this business passed away from the U. S. court. I have taken the trouble to get an exact statement of the amount of foreclosures in the U. !S. court for this district during the years 1878, 1S79 and 18S0 by the principal foreign loan companies operating in the state. It is as follows : 2 3 3 - 5T 5? " Is8 sill! ! -3 V, 6 9 9 a p to c c jfc. o l x z p y, z. V .-: j ' ; -1 - i ' v -1 -1 OA; 4 4 2 : 0 ff o Ca Of cour-e, under the act of March 15, 1S79, no new suits were brought by theso companies in this court. The figures for 1KS0 and the latter half of 1879 represent only cases already brought. The volume of foreclosure by foreign companies is more nearly shown, though somewhat under the actual amount, by the figures for 1878. The amount for the three years as hero given is $1,523,843.91, but it was unquestionably over two millions. Under this law the foreclosure business has passed so completely to the state courts that since 1SS5 tho aggregate foreclosures by the companies named, in the U. S. court have been less than ten thousand dollars a year. Well, what of all this? If a man borrows money he must expect to ray it, mustn't he? Certainly, but where did this money come from? IIow did it happen that these Kastcrn people had money to loan and we needed to borrow ? Our soil is better than theirs; our facilities for commerce aro good ; our natural resources are unsurpassed. We have pimply been taxing ourselves for a century to make them rich. Our forefathers arid ourselves have been paying them to keep up tho "infant industries," borrowing back the money at high interest, paying interest till we were ruined, and then turning over our lnds to pay the principal. Out of this system they have received tho infant industries and the money, and are taking in tho lands at the rate of three-quarters of a million a year. What have we realized? We have not even acquired experience. These good people now tell us that if we take off one-ninth of our tribute we will be reduced to pauperism, and there are hundreds of people here, many of whom have at times been suspected of having sense, who solemnly avow that this is true. We must koepon taxing ourselves or we will bo ruined. The people who want us to quit taxing ourselves are those awful English, and they are sending over ship-loads of gold to purchase our votes and induce us to take this fatal step. Beware! Beware! Beware! I wish that every voter in Indiana could travel through" New England and figure on this proposition for himself. lie would see a poor, sandy, rocky soil that evidently mado no one rich. He would see villages grown up around enormous factories. He would see in all the cities the magnificent buildings of loan and mortgage companies, safo deposit companies and trusts. He would find corporations that owned more land in Indiana than any corporation or dozen men in Indiana. "If it is not the direct, natural, inevitable result of this tariff system, what is it? But would, you destroy theso factories? Not at all. I would merely quit donating them money. They aro selling their goods to-day for less money in foreign markets than they charge for them at home. 1 hey are competing with tho "pauper labor not only of low tariff England, but also of high protective tariff Germany and France, in the markets of the world. They are not making any fair division of our contributions with their employes. The worst wages paid in this country are in the "protected" regions of New England and Pennsylvania. They are stacking up the money we givo them in their coffers, loaning it on mortgage security, and paying it for corruption purposes in elections. On one hand they liood the country with idiocy about British gold; on the other they send out their John Jarretts to corrupt voters. Both their agencies are here now in profusion, and yet these philanthropic people wLih only "to protect American labor." J. P. Dc.nn, Jr.

THE VOICE OF AN OLD SOLDIER. A Man Who Suffered m Andersonvllle Says Few Words to His Old Comrades. To the Editor Sir: I have been reading the proceedings of the late convention of "ex-union prisoners of war," an organization to which I am entitled to become a member if, indeed, I am not barred on account of politics. When the dark clouds of war spread their gloomy mantle over the land in 1861, I, together with thousands of other democrats and republicans, bade farewell to loved ones at home and placed myself in the front of battle. We went not as democrats or as republicans, but as defenders of the union. Neither did wo go to war against democrats, but against a rebellion that threatened the destruction of tho best government on earth. For four long years wo stood together side by side in one common cause with but one object in view, that object being to restore the union. The question as to which political party should have the glory was never considered. We carried with us no thought of politics. The hardships of the camp, the march, the battle, and the prison, were endured by all without party distinction. Now, that those questions have been settled for a quarter of a century, and that, too, by an unconditional surrender of our then enemy, I am pained to know that we have thoso among us who will get up in our social reunions and mar the joys of those occasions by insulting those old comrades because they did not sutler a chain of political slavery to be placed about their necks. One o'f the worst insults is given by that God-hating, God-reviling infidel and republican idol, Bob Ingersoll, w hen he :is his reasons for not being a deinoci -.t "all r6bels were demo crats." - undertake to say that there was not a ..igle, solitary democrat who took up arms against the government. The principles of the democratic party are the principles upon which this government was founded, and the moment a man took up arras against the government he rebelled against the principles of democracy, and thereby divorced himself from the party, if he had ever belonged to it I am inclined to believe there is a better reason for the old infidel to give for not being a democrat, and that is, that there is nothing in his mental composition susceptible of anything so elevated as a democratic sentiment. Now, I want to say if the Union prisoners of war have any just cause to complain of cither of the old parties, most certainly the complaint should be held against the republican party. And I shall speak of Andersonville only. While there were thousands of poor, helpless beings in other prisons equally as bad, during the month of August, 18U4, there were 00,000 at Andersonville, and the death rate at that place per day was 120. Now, if the republican party thought as much of us then as they would have us think they do now, they would have Facrificed Mierman's entire army to have liberated us poor, helpless beings. But what did they do for us? The rebels were willing and anxious to exchange man for man, but because we were not in a physical condition to enter into active service at once, we were denied the blessed privilege of being exchanged, and hence the bones of 13,000 fathers, sons and husbands lie moidering in one grave to-day, and if they could rumble in their dusty bed they would speak in thunder tones to our soldier-loving republican statesmen, and 6ay to them, "Oh, ye hypocrites ; you say you loved me, but for me you would make no sacrifice because I was weak. We warn our living comrades to beware of you and trust vou not." A Soldier. (Of22dInd.Vol.) Fairland, Ind., Sept. 22. THE ISSUE OF THE HOUR. A Republican Ncwupsper Snys the Demo, cratie Position Is Right. ProTiJence Journal rep. The question which by general consent anl the declarations of both parties will absorb all others will be that of the revision of the tariff as affecting the industrial system. It is not a question of the theory of free trade versus that of protection, although it may take that 6hape in the public mind, but the practical one of whether manufactures shall be benefited by the admission of free raw materials, whether our commerce shall be revived by permission to purchase bhips cheaply, and the markets of the world opened by an interchange of commodities without destroying the protection sufficient to guard our industries against ruinous wage rates, M hile at the same time giving them the stimulus of enlarged opportunity and wholesome competition. The Joitnud believes that upon this question the democratic policy and platform are right and that the republican policy and platform are wrong. It has argued that the republican party would make a mistake if it allowed itself to be forced, through political opposition, into takinj a ponition in regard to the revision of the tariff contrary to the declarations of its previous platforms and the advice and counsel of nearly all its statesmen up to the beginning of the present sescion of congress. It had hoped that the party in convention would declare for a reasonable revision of the tariff in the line of a reduction in the cost of the necessaries of life, the relief of manufactures, a more open market and a parctical revival of our commerce. It has not done so. The democratic party has. It is a question of national policy overshadowing all others. The EnglUh FoTertr Rot. IN. Y. World.l . We have received from Mr. Nathaniel McKay a proof slip of a horrible story, which he has given to the prefs generally, of the wretchedness, poverty, misery arid low wages which he was nble to discover in a two months' search in free trade England. We have rend this sad creed, and we will guarantee that we can duplicate every story of misery which Mr. McKay relates, on the cast side of New York and in the mining regions of Pennsylvania. We

will forfeit $000 if we cannot secure more harrowing accounts of human misery in Russia, one of the best protected countries in Europe, or in Germany, for that matter. There is not a fact brought out in McKay's museum of horrors which is not the concomitant of over-population too many people for the amount of work to be given out. If McKay is anxious to excite the American people he should let loose a few bugaboos from China, that beautifully protected flowery land, where poverty flourished nnd humanity famished perchance 6.000 years before the timber grew which Xoah used in the construction ot his ark. The idea of comparing the condition of people in this free, rich, practically unsettled country with the teeming lives of the old world, where hundreds stand ready to seize every job of work offered, it is too absurd for consideration. lilalne On Trusts. Brooklyn Eagle. Mr. RIaine's address to his Portland admirers was nothing more than a pledge to the beneficiaries of these unscrupulous trade "combines" that the republican party will stand by thein in their program of spoliation. He frankly declared that the trusts were "largely private affairs with which neither President Cleveland nor private citizens have any particular right to interfere." This is simply to assert that the American people who are heavily burdened to Bupport the industries represented by such combinations shall tamely permit those industries to be manipulated solely in the interest of protected capital. They are asked to lie supinely on their backs and sulTer a growing horde of avaricious monopolists to ride rough shod over them. To this proposal Mr. Dlaine not only gives his av sent, but commits the republican party in the present canvass. If there was any donbt about the influences which have gained coutrol of that organization, if there was any question as to thcjMirpose of the corporation agents and lobbyists who directed the proceedings and shaped the platform of the Chicago convention, Mr. Blaine leaves no room for any further incredulity.
