ought not to be re-elected nor the taxes on the necessaries of life reduced. v'Sm plain statement of facts shows v -rt of a friend of the laboring people '!cKay is. It may be added that all tl i- :iou whose jobs President Cliveland lw;.s killed are similiarly distressed -about the existing poverty In England, and tearful that tariff reform will ruin American Trcrkiugmen. How to Vote for Tariff Reform. There are reported to be some "tariff reform republicans" in this latitude irho propose to vote for IIaeiusom and Byxum. There are not many of them, to be sure in fact, a "tariff reform republican" in this year of grace, 1SS8, is a rara avis anywhere. Most men who are for tariff reform have ceased to call themselves republicans, since the g. o. p. declared at Chicajo for a prohibitory tariff and free whisky. But let that pass. "What we were about to say was that these so-called "tariff reform republicans" apologize for their inconsistency in supporting th monopoly tax candidate for the presidency and opposing the monopoly tax candidate for congress by advancing the theory that conpress and not the president makes the tariff laws; and that this apology is wholly inadmissible. The country has to-day a powerful illustration of the fact that the president of the United States has everything to do with tariff legislation. If we had had a monopoly protectionist like Blaine or Harrison in the white house during the last four years, not a step would yet have been taken in the direction of tariff reform. Indeed, if anybody but a brave and outspoken tariff reformer, with the full courage of his convictions, and a readiness to sacrifice all considerations of expediency and personal advantage to the public weal, had been president, the tariff issue would still be in abeyance. The defeat of Mr. Cleveland, under the existing circumstances, would be accepted as a verdict against the principles for which he stands, even if a majority of tariff reformers were returned to congress. With Bex Harrisox in the white house, not a step would be taken toward relieving the people of the burdens of the war tariü during the next four years. If anything were done in the way of tariff legislation and the condition of the treasury would doubtless compel some action it would be to increase the tribute taken by monopoly from the people. The man who believes in tariff reform, and votes for IIakrisox for president, will be false to his principles, and will neither command the respect of the world nor the approval of his own conscience. There is another element in the situation which is worthy of attention. One can't vote for Eev Harrison without voting for Levi P. Mortojt. There is a strong probability that the senate will be evenly balanced perhaps an exact tie in the first two jyars of the next administration. With Allen G.TnrRM an to give the casting vote on a tariff measure the interests of the people would be Becure. With Levi P. Morton to give the casting vote their interests would surely be sacrificed. Therefore, let no one be deceived. The only way to ote for tariff reform is to vote for Cleveland, Thcrmax andademocratic candidate for congress. On the tariff bill in the next congress, in all human probability, either Thcrmax or Mostox will have the deciding vote. A Typical Monopoly Campaigner. Senator Bcxdv, a cheap blatherskite from Henry county, is making stump speeches for the free whisky ticket in the rural districts. According to the Richmond Palladium (rep.), he tells the people that President Cleveland had a substitute in the army who died in the poor-house ; that the democratic party never passed a pension bill; and that Vooriiees said during tha war that every Union soldier ought to have a collar around his neck with the inscription on it: "I am A. Lincoln's do-." Having told these three shocking lies, BuxDY indulges in some dirty flings at Cleveland's private character, and winds tip by reading a disgusting article about pensions which appeared in the Chicago Timet a year or two ago, and which, as the writer of this happens to know, was written by a man who has been voting the republican ticket for years, and the same who used to describe the democratic party in the Timen as "a bad-smelling, putrid remini.cence." This is the sort of mental pabulum that republican audiences are furnished in this year of our Lord, 1S38. Falsehood, blackguardism, scurrility, indecency appeals to ignorance, passion, prejudice and selfishness everything that is vile and low and mean but no truth, no argument, no logic, no calm, fair discussion of living issues. The success of a campaign conducted on this low plane would bis a lasting reproach to the intelligence, the manhood, and the patriotism of the American people. Wages and the Mills Bill. All the arguments against the Mills bill, based upon the difference in the cost of labor in this country and Europe, are utterly fallacious, because this measure protect? our manufacturers a good deal more than the entire cost of their labor. The

following shows the per cent, of labor cost I in the leading industries of this country and the per cent, of tariff protection, as proposed by the Mills bill : Jjnhttr Cnrt. Per Cent. Chemic?Uf ... 11 mtu Bio. r er Cent. 23 f,2 5S 22 4) 9 Crockery and gla.ni ware. Mtl 4.1 20 20 21 Hemp jut and flax goods.. AVoole ns Cotton goods. It will be seen that to all these industries the Mills bill gives protection greater than the entire labor cost in thi$ eountry,BO that even if the foreign manufacturers get their labor for nothing the Mills bill will still give our domestic manufacturers the advantage of them. This one fact, which is known to Eev Harcisox and Jokx Jarbett and the other monopoly taxers who are trying to convince the workingmen that a reduction of the tariff would compel a reduction of their wages, convicts them of dishonesty and hypocrisy In making such a claim. A WAsniXGTO.v telegram to the Journal quotes an anonymous real estate agent 4mm o natural cn tnwn an ,ivlnrr "T-nfct XX 11. mm w. p- .- ' j - ' Nummer and fall there were ten times as many manufactures established in the vatural gas belt through Indiana and io as there have been this year." fc'o

far as Indiana is concerned this is an outrageous falsehood. The Sentinel has show from the official records that within eight months after President Cleveland's tariff message was eent to congress over $0,000,000 was invested in new industries in this state. The larger part of it was put into new mills and factories in the gas belt. No period of equal length in the history of the state can show such a record. The fact of tho matter is that the natural gas belt is moro deeply interested in getting free raw materials and in a reduction in the tax on machinery, building materials and the other things that enterintqa manufacturing plant, than any other part of the state. With cheap fuel, cheap raw materials and cheap plants, the gas belt will boom with a bigger boom, than tho most sanguino of its citizens ever dreamed of.

HOVEY'S "POPULARITY (?)." The Record Shows It To He a Purely Mlnua Quantity. To the Editor Sir: The friends of Hovey have so very much to pay about his popularity that I concluded I would look up his record a little and see how it was. I find that he started his political life in 1S42, when he ran as a whig candidate for the legislature and w as defeated. His next attempt was in 1S44 as the whitf candidate for prosecuting attorney, which ended in another defeat. In 1849 he was a democratic candidate to the constitutional convention and was elected. There were only three candidates and two delegates were to bo elected. Itobert Dale Owen was also elected. In 18ÖU the democrats and whigs effected a compromise on the circuit and common pleas judgeships. Hovey, without any opposition, was elected as the democratic circuit judge, and Judge Pitcher, without any opposition, was elected as llwwhig common pleas judge. In 1834 Hovey was defeated for the supreme court by Judge 8. B. Gookins. In 18"s he was defeated in the congressional raco by Judge Niblack. I might also add that Judge Lockhard defeated him for the congressional nomination. We now come to his race for congress in 1S.ST). The democrats had a big light on hand, and the republicans, after much worrying, nominated Hovey. To show that Hovey was not elected bv the republican votes, but by the stay-at-nome democrats, I must refer you "to the following tables : rONOEESJlOXAL riECTIOS OF 1S34. 3 & a C "3 5 c COCXTIES.

Vernon, Ind. Dear Sir Is there a man, republican or democrat, in or near your city by the name of Fred, or Fritz, Stritter, who is opposing the republican candidate for Rovemor, Hovey. The republicans here say there is no such man there. Youri very truly, S. K. McIntosh. MT. Vfrnon. Ind., iSept. 24. Heretofore I hive flattered myself that I was partaking of the plensureg of this life in an .humble way, hut it seems that the republican, not satisfied with denying my former republicanism, are now denying my existence in a county ( Washington) in which I thoucrht that some of my political friends of the pat lived. As to ray existence, I refer to Hen Harrison, Albert O. Porter, the present state officers, the republican state central r-ommiitee, the Indianapolis Journal, and last but not least, Gen. Alvin P. Hovey. Very respectfully, Fritz Th. Stritter. One of Clereland'a Vetoes. To the Editor Sir: Why did Cleveland veto the carpenters' lien bill while governor of New York? Answer through your paper. Kirklin, Ind., Sept. 29. A Header. The writer doubtless refers to a measure known as the "mechanics' lien law." Gov. Cleveland, in the interest of the wrl-inpmen of New York state, vetoed an act purporting to be a mechanics' lien law for the counties of Kings and Queens. His habit was, and is, to examine very carefully every act submitted for hid signature. His examination of this proposed lien law, that was submitted to him as governor, disclosed the fact that instead of giving the mechanic the first lien, by an oversight in the drafting of it, it gave to all partitt having claims, whether mechanics or nof, th first lien thus reducing tha mechanic to a level of all claimants. Moreover it was so drawn as to repeal a nnmber of general and necessary mechanics' lien laws already oa tha statute books. To si;n it was to sacrifice the real and substantial advantages given by the existing laws to mechanics, and it was vetoed to protect their rights. So much for that story. At to Greenback "Idiots, Loz Cabins, Etc. To the Editor Sir: You are doing some most excellent work with your noble paper. It is just a pleasure to see you lay out Harrison's Chinese oryan. Continue to pour the hot shot into it until after Nov. 6. Has the Juurvd ever denied thnt Harrison called the greenbnekers idiots? Did not the supremo court decide in favor of the position the greenbackers had taken, and against Harrison? Are cot the log cabins, which the republicans are erecting, true representatives 01 the kind of houses the workingmen will be compelled to occupy if the republican platform should bo fuily carried out? There has never been a campaign in the memory of the oldest inhabitants where a joint discussion would be more beneficial than at the present. ' 1. A. O. Franklin, Ind., Sept 2.).

had the power to issue legal tenders at any time, and to any amount it saw fit, just as the greenbackers contended. The republicans will not consent to joint discussions. The point as to the log cabins is well taken. LITCHMAN REBUKED. A K. of Is. Reviews His Speech at Con. nersvllle. To the Editor Sir: The Hon. (?) Charles Litchman spoke here the other evening to a not very large nor enthusiastic audience. It was composed for the greater part of men who, though reaping the benefits of labor organizations, have ignored and despised them. The speaker seemed to be ill at ease with his subject, which was tho advantages that would accrue to the working class by votins for the g. o. p. and tho high protection "which they are so anxious to retain for our benefit, and in spite of the fct that the principles of protection have been denounced by K. of 1. assemblies and labor organizations all over the country, irrespective of party. Probably he had some idea that the lloosier workingincn were in such a wtate of ignorance that it required the superhuman intelligence of the honorable (?) gentleman to prove to them the course they should pursue. Hut he will find that he was entirely mistaken; that they are as well informed as to their conditions and requirements as himself, and that thir votes will be given in accordance with the principles they profess, and not inlluenced by the boodle of the Quays and the g. o. p. His denunciation of the democratic party, and more especially with regard to the non-enforcement of the alien contract labor law, has no effect, for we know that the evils resulting from immigration date from the p.insage of the pauper contract labor law which the republicans passed July 4, 1H04, sec. 2 of which va especially aimed at labor organizations, and was concurrent with the charter granted to the Union and and Central Pacific railroads, giving them a land grant covering 42,000,(kX) acres and credit to the extent of f 31,(XJU.O U by the indorsement of that amount of bonds. The companies then made hargains with the money so obtained with the "tix companies" of San Francisco to furnish them with lö.ÜOO Chinese laborers at $1 per month and found. This was the act of that republican party which is bo anxious for the well-b-ing of us wage-workers, and is seeking our suffrages. Strange contradiction that the honorable (?) gentleman should advise ns to vote for the republican candidates, and at the same time keep up our organizations and strengthen them. Coanersville, Ind., Sept. 24. K. OF L. Calico and Flaying Cards. To the Editor Sir: What is the tariff oa calico? Also playing cards. A Header. Thorn town, Ind., JSept. 29. The tariff on all cotton goods, including calico, is purposely made so complicated that the consumer can with difficulty understand it. It varies according to the number of threads to the square inch (counting both warp and filling) and the price. "When the value is not over 13 cents the duty is 4 cents and 5 cents per iquare yard, the former being the rate on goods counting cot more than 100 threads as stated, and the latter on goods counting more than 100 threads to the square inch. This is not the duty per lineal yard, but per7ar yard. The tariff on playing cards is 100 per cent. Results of England's Absolut Protection." To TfiE Editor Sir: Gen. George A. Sheridan said in his recent speech, as reported in the Journal: "The policy of England it of necessity that of free trade at this time, but do not forget that for eeiUvriet ehe. vat tltc msM altolutebj protected country upon this globe, and that she did not abandon that policy until she believed she held the manufacturing and commercial supremacy of the world in her grasp." etc. If su'h absolute protection for centuries reduced England's laborers to the abject slnvery they arc now represented to endure, does the United States of America want to follow suit? We hope not. A. Indianapolis, Sept 25. Hogs. To the Editor Sir: -Will you please state: (11 The number of hogs or number of pounds ot pork exported to Germany, France and England?

t&era IMPORTANT. Democrats arc warned not to change their residence from their present voting" precinct after Oct. 6. If they do thev will lose their vote. Republicans are scheming to induce democrats to change their residences under various pretexts, that their votes may be lost on election dayT AN OLD SOLDIER ON MATSON, The Democratic Candidate for Governor A True Friend of the Hoys la Illne. To the Editor Sir: In a hot political, national and state contest like tho present, personal qualities in candidates are generally neglected or overlooked in the desire for the success of the nominee of the party. But in the present instance Indinna has a candidate for governor whose manifestations of interest in a very much neglected class of individuals is a special recommendation to hira for ßupport. 1 have reference to Col. C. C. Matson, candidate for governor of Indiana, and hin soldier comrades, regardless ef their political predilections. Col. Matson has shown himself to be a close and warm friend to all who, like himself, served their country in time of difficulty and danger. While his sympathies in their behalf have gone out alike toward all who in any way Luve become identified among the nation's defenders, that may indicate a too great respect lor the more prominent characters in the great drama, he has nevertheless proven his dee pes t regard for the humblest soldier by his oilicial conduct. Comrades, you have a true und tried friend iu Col. Matson. Not oidy has he done his oftcial duty faithfully, but as an individual he tias given his special attention to individual discs oi application tor tension, where his influence has been of invaluable (service to the applicant, as I nm personally aware. As governor of the state his interest in lchalf of soldiers will not be abated, but his power and ability in securing the just rights of his soldier constituency will be enhanced. No national interest of soldiers can be as seriously imperiled by the election of a governor as it would under the present circumstances, and if soldiers will consult their party interest they will supCort Col. ilaUou lor governor, no what may e their prejudices or their views on the taridf question. As soldiers wc have an interest in nr.tional questions in common with other people, and may difler in our opinions in regard to 6uch questions. Hut in matters pertaining to our array experience, we have a special and mutual interest in which we should " all be agreed. I, as the least worthy of those who went to the war, to till up Indiana's quota of volunteers, have had occasion to be under obligations to Col. Matson for social favors. If he has been generou and kind enough to interest himselt in my behalf us a private in the Seventh regiment Indiana volunteers, what would he not be willing to do for comrades more worth v, who are residents of his own state. Soldiers, more than any other class, should show gratitude for favors. Gen. Hovey, his competitor, has a soldier reputation, but he is without the reputation and credit of being a special friend to the private soldier. Comrades should bear in mind thut their numbers are rapidly decreasing, ami soon their influence can no longer be made felt in political efforts tobeif fit their own interests, and whatever is to be done must be dono by concert of action.

To TUE Kdxtok Sir: I was talking to a republican yesterday who claimed that the woolen blankets recently purchased from England, by the U. iS. government, could have been purchased cheaper at home. Please give us the facts in the case. Charles M. Safford. hideler, Ind., Sept. 2S. As usual, the republican claim end the facts are widely at variance. Here is a statement ot the facts as made by Secretary Kndicott of the war department: March 4, 1S37, the medical department advertised for projosals for medical and hospital supplies. Among the articles

be evils connected with tnesa

00 I 1 o 03 p r? n P P O cn g o n K P ti o TI & cr. o o 0 a tu o a ti tu r P. cl d o P O o were 2,000 white all-wool twilled blankets. The letter of advertisement (copy herewith) informed all bidders that two prices might be given to any projosal for any item, one for delivery in bond, the other for delivery duty paid. The number of blankets purchased was 2,0; the price was .2.23 2-10 each. The only proposals received were from American bidders. The lowest Lid for a blanket of domestic manufacture, to be made of imported wool, wa82.30. The contrni-t was awarded to V. Hayes of "Washintrton, P. '., at 2.23 210 in bond at the port of New York. Two thousand blankets at $2.56 would have cost $3,120. Two thousand blankets at $2.23 2-10 cost Amount saved to the government, $016. The blankets supplied by Mr. Hayes were superior in quality and weight to any of the samples submitted by the other bidders, and exceeded the standard weight of four pounds by tw o and one-half to four ounces each. They were all wool, ps reported by the army chemist after examination, while none of the other samples submitted exceeded the standard weight, and in the matter of quality some were of interior wool or manufacture and others were not 11 wool. The principle acted upon by the medical department is to buy the best article that could be had from the lowest bidder, this being in strict compliance with paragraph l,.rv51, army regulations, which provides that "except in the rare cases where the United States may elect to exercif-c ita reserved right to reject proposals, contracts will be awarded to the lowest responsable bona fide bidder, who. when required, produces a proper article and whose proposal therefor is Dot unreasonable in amount." Sec. 2,5U5j revised statrtes of the United States, provides that articles imported for the use of the L'riited States fchall be admitted duty free if the price of the articles do not include the duty. Various articles of foreign manufacture, such as quinine, morphine, olive oil, linen sheets and pillow cases, ns well ns books, meteorological instrument., plate glass and Portland cement have for many years past been purchase J, in bond, from American bidders for use in the medical department, the signal corps and for river and harbor works. Such articles as are enumerated herein were purchased in bond under the administrations of Presidents (irant, Ih-.ycs and Arthur. Under the administration of President Grant the number of purchases of articles made abroad for the signal service was largely in excess of those for any corresponding period. Under President Hayes' administration there were forty permits granted for free entry for the tignal service. Under President Arthur's administration there were sixty-one permits, and under the present administration the number has fallen to nineteen. Tho Apportionment ot Representatives.

(Chicago Times. Advocates of a high tariff for the alleged purpose of "protecting American labor" have gone over every country in Europe for the object of finding persons who work long hours for very short pay. They succeeded in finding them and described their t-oudition for the purpose of securii;g volts. The persons who have done this

work have in many cases been members of the literary bureau supported by our w ealthy manufacturers, who could well allbrd to pay liberally for fine writing.

Paul, Minneapolis, Duluth and Abhland to principal points in Minnesota, Dakota and Montana during September and October. Parties contemplating a trip for pleasure, business, or with a view of selecting a new home can avail themselves of rates lower than ever before announced to viit the wonderful country tributary of the Northern Paeitic railroad. Tickets will be on sale at St Paul, Minneapolis, Dulth and Ashland on Sept. 11 and 25, and Oct. 9 and 23, limited to thirty days from date of sale, and good for stop-over ou going passage. These rates to Montana points are about one cent per mile each way, and in 6omc cases about half of the one way fare for the round trip. Connecting lines east and south of St. Taul, Minneapolis and Duluth will sell tickets in connection with these excursions at one fare for the round trip. The dates named will be a very opportune time to visit the wheat fields of Minnesota and north Dakota; also to see the cattle ranges of Montana. Everybody should bear in mind thnt the Northern Pacific railroad is the short and direct line to principal points in Montana, and the only line running either dining cars, Pullman sleeping cars, or colonist sleeping cars to Fargo, Grand Forks, Fergus Falls, Wabpcton, Jamestown. Helena, and principr.l points in northern Minnesota, north Dakota und Montana. For rates and other information apply to Charles S.
