THE DISAFFECTION among the colored men of Ohio is so great that exSenator Bruce, the colored statesman from Mississippi, has beeu sent for to falk the brethren into further submission to republican control.

Isx'r it’ funny ,to hear Republicans promising relief t 6 labor and protection to working men against “existing evils” when the very evils of which the peo:. ple complain have been the fruits of republican policy and have resulted from republican success during the last twenty-five years? ik e

EvER ready to give. honor unto whom honor is due, Tz BANNER hast ens to congratulate the Republicans of the Springficld (Ohio) district upon the defeat of ex-Speaker Keifer in his candidacy for repomiuation. The retirement of such men as Keifer is a public benefit and a publicduty. .

| Amoxe the strongest helps which Mr. Cleveland has received from the independent Republicans none are more earnest and active than Mayor Low, of Brooklyn. The Mayor has been twice elected in a city which is.denmocratic by 10,000 to 15,000 majority. His personal support bids fair to run up Cleveland’s majority in Brooklyn to 20,000 votes.

His manifest confidence imparted the wildestenthusiasm among his adherants. 4

Tmrry YEARS ago the .sails of the American merchant marine whitened every sea. Now only ten per cent. of the carrying trade between our shores and foreign ports is conveyed in American ships. "Our navy has been utterly destroyed by thérepublican tariff poli¢y, which is preserved for the speecial benefit of a few wealthy monopolists. Under the insane cry of protection, laws are preservved that depreciate labor, ruin our navy and benefit only the very wealthiest class. “Feform is necessary” in the adjustiment of the tariff. :

/Ix ms LETTER of acceptance Mr.Blaifne,f malkes a labored appeal to the farmers for their votes, on the ground that in our Jarge exports of produce only a.i quarter of a bushel of wheat is exported of forty bushels grown. Well, if this statement is true, whose fault is it? The Republicans have made all the laws - that haye been passed regulating foreign trade for 23 years! The statement of Mr. Blaine furnishes a capitak reason why, the republican law-makers should be retired from power.

Leapive republican newspapers admit that Blaine was a Know-Nothing thirty years ago, busthey claim-that he has seen the exrors of his way and has changed his sentiments. This is very well for Mr. Blaine, but while he is accorded the. privilege of changing his opimions, why should such a huefand cry be made against the people of the south who were rebels a quarter of a century ago hut now candidly acknowledge their error? Why may one man reverse his views and not anop&e_r? Verily, it makes a good deal of difference as to whose ox is gored.

THeERE is a good deal of meat in the following clipped from anjeastern papér: “The financial and industrial condition of the country may suit millionaire Blaine; but it is very doubtful whether the-mass of the voting population are pleased with the stagnation in business and the redution of the wages. of labor that has been going on. In the west the rallying cry of the workingmen is, ‘Cleveland and better times!” As labor is now suffering in the east as much as "in the west the glad refrain is being taken up here. "Down with Blaine and monopoly! Up with Cleveland and the people!”

.. A SOMEWHAT sanguine,, but usually well informed c’bxitem%orary—*the ‘Harrisburg Patriot, says: : ' * The only quest?on now is how large shall be the majority for Cleveland in the electoral college. With New York and Indiana secure for him by many thousands in both states, there can be no doubt of his election. New Jersey is also as certain to_give him its electoral yote as Georgia or Kentucky. Even Florida and West Virginia could be spared, with New York, New Jersey! and Indiana secure. But Connecticut, Massachusetts, Michigan, Wisconsin, Illinois, Towa, Kansas, Nevada * and Ohio are trembling in the balance, and it would not be-at all surprising to intelligent observers if every one of these would join the Cleveland col. ‘ umn, 1t looks very much as if the democrats were to repeat the Pierce camp_aign'\l of 1882.7 ! g !

The true policy to pursue is to contest each of the states abdve enumsorated and thus keep ‘the enemy engaged all along the.line. Reform is necessary, and victory indispensable.

Groveß CLEVELAND “is an immoral man.” we are told. That he has an Illegitimate progeny of thirteen children, is the burden of the republican gsong just now. Although no testimony has been .adduced the changes are rupg from day to day in pious horror. Well, the world was ones told -that Thomas Jefferson was the “father of . a ndgro baby.” General Jackson ‘was declared to be an infamous char-, acter for the alleged reason - that he had married a non-divorced woman, The story did not harm the hero of New Orleans, but a fraft woman pined and died under the slander. Jackson ‘was elected. So was Jefferson. Cleveland will be elected. The psople will ‘not determine the issue upon campaign libels. The question is purity of ady ministration. Grover Cleveland is a poor man. Blaine began poor, but in & public career of twenty-five years has amassed an epormous fortune, He was not engaged in business. How did he make his money? The private and domestic relations| of Mr. Blaine and Mr, Cleveland are not in the eon-

test. Their public records are subjects for intelligent seratiny. Which will give us a clean administration? I “Reform is necessary,” e ¥ f $ &y & y ¥ A ‘

It 18 sAIp that leading Democrats of Cincinnati are quietly working up an 8,000 majority for Cleveland in the Paris of America.

AFTER all their spasmodic efforts the Blaine blowers and strikers have utterly failed to show that Governor Cleveland has not been the steadfast and unselfish- friend or the laboring men.

ONE THING ‘s certain: the Irish people are not likely to forget that Blaioe was a fierce Know Nothing, when that fanatical organization arrayed itself g 0 viciously against foreign-born citizens in general and Irish Catholics in particular. ;

Ir 18 BalD that Gen. Grant has declared for Blaine. After his recent financial operations in the house of Grant & Ward it: is perfectly natural that the ex-President should come squarely out for Blaine and honest government! His firm constitutes such fine exemplars of honesty that his word will purge Mr. Blaine of even the suspicion of corruption! & : oy

Tue New York Tribune refuses to be governed by the rules of the typographical union even at tlie earnest request of the republican' national committee. Being in sympathy with the Hon. J.G. Blaine the Tribune thinks it can afford to bid the labor organizations defiance. Yet workingmen are expected to vote for Blaine and support the Tribune! Will they doit? :

Bro. FINNEY, of the Columbus Herald, puts it thus: “Two years ago. all the républican papers were patting the prohibitionists on the back. They then pretended to favor prohibition with the view of getting their votes. To favor the prehibitionists now is to losa their vofes and the Republicans are not patting them. On the contraIy, quite otherwise.” - 5 ‘

" Tung Clevelana Plaindealer says: “There are some personal episodes in Mr. Blaine’s career, touching his private life, that the democratic press haye not given publicty, although they were fresly used by Republicans in Cincinnati in 1876, and in Chicago in 1880, to defeat his nomination for the presidency. | Mr. Blaine in view of this fact deprecates the attacks made on the private character of Grover Cleveland.” ? 5

" Tue naturalized Chinamen of New York held a meeting a few nights ago and heartily applauded a speech by Wong Chin Foo, in which the orator denounced Blaino and the republican party asa set of demagogues, the democrats as robbers and thieyes, the greenbackers as impracticable youngsters, and the "anti monopolists as cranks. Unless Wong eatches on to the anti-Masonic fellows, where under heaven can he take his pig tail,

No ~ewspaper in Indiana has rung the changes on the indecent charge which the Buffalo Telegram trumped up against Gov. Cleveland with greater persistency than the Indianapolis Times. Tt gave all the disgusting details of the vile falsehood, and then tglegraphed to Buffalo for additional particulars. In reply it received the following dispatch: . ; ‘ : “Burravo, N. Y., July 22. To the Editor of the Times: The whole story is an exaggeration and is only a rehash of matter printed some time ago by the Sunday Truth -of this city. It receives no altention here—not the slightest.” Since the reception of this telegram the Times has been remarkably silent touching Gov. Cleveland’s “moral delinquencies,” and has turned its attention almost wholly to Gov. Hendricks’ war record! . - i |

A SLANDER SQUELCHED.

The Buffalo Hapress the republican Blaine organ, published at Buffalo, the home of Gov. Cleveland, a few days since published the following editor--lally : : _ : “1. The Express adheres to every good word it then (when he was nominated) said with respect ‘to the candidate’s life and record, ' ; 2. What we.can say, based upon our information and judgment, is this: We do not believe that the charges are, in any just sense of the word, true. 3. The Telegraph, (the little paper printing the slander), has Had bitfer cause ere this to regret its publication of slanderous matter which it could not prove, and we think that its editor has learned heretofore how hard it is in this city even to get bail in‘a'prosecution for eriminal libel. .

4. We did adviss everybody who could to vote for Mr. Cleveland for mayor ¢f Buffalo and for governor of New York. We have never regretted doing 80, and do not now regret his election to those places.” S

This is a squelcher, The slander 8o industriously circulated by the republican press is thus completely refuted by the republican papers published at Governor Cleveland’s home. It is no wonder that rgputable republican jour nals are beginning to deprecate such assaults upon thé private character of candidates. The editors of such journals know that the charge against Gavernor Cleveland is false and they 480 know that Blaine i amenable to gimilar charges. bty

A CARD THAT WON'T WIN,

We are in receipt of a'copy of the Houston Daily Post which takes occasion to caution the people of Indiana against the scheies of an individual named Nation who formerly resided in this State. Nation, it appears, has been a resident of the South for a number of.years and during that time claims to have accumulated considerable evidence, as he thinks, of the “treason” of the people among whom he dwelt. : He says they voted for men for office down there because they were disabled Confederate veterans; that their papers denounced Garfield, &c. After exposing a long list of his meanness, the Post Savs: e

“We have no desire to pose Nation as a martg'r to his ‘cause,” but have penned these few lines to expose onecf the miserable hypocrites who come in and go out amongst us, and though dependent upon the people for their living repai; the favors extended them with ‘ the basest ingratitude, and embracing the first opportunitfir to blacken the fpeople’s fair fame with a parcel of infam.ous lies.. The articles in question are prepared in such’ a manner that they can be used as_cogy for such republican journals :in Indiana and other states as desire to use them, and in a short time they will gi'obably appear in the Northern Republican press as a part of the bloody shirt literature of the camgaign.: It is said that Nation intends stumping Indiana for Blaine.” The people of Indiana have more ‘weighty matters to consider than alleged or garbled extracts from intem-| perate southern papers. That sort of campaign literature has spent its force.

In THE Ninth Indiana district the Republicans have nominated C. A. Doxey, the noted bucket-shop man, for Congress. It is needless to say that he was nominated altogether on. account of his ability to make liberal contiibutions to the corruption fund.

. IT APPEARS that J. 0. S. Harrison, the Indianapolis banker, as receiver of the Indiana Banking Company, embezzled $95,611, and sunk it in speculation in his own broken bauk, for which wholesale robbery he has been placed under arrest. - Harrison evidently has very liberal notions in regard to the prerogatives of a banker. -

Tor twenty years the republican party bas levied the people’s taxes and disbursed the people’s money without rendering an open account of its stewardship. § : It has kept its own books and audited its ownaccounts, and when pushed by commitees pf Congress to open the records of the depurtments to the light of day, it has refused on the ples that compliance would “be incompatible with the public interest.” / So long as i} holds the key to the several deparfments of the executive brangh of the governmeant it will not permit the people to know what has been done with the billions that, have been wrung from them in taxes during the last twenty-four years.

The ouly way to open the books and to assure an- honest and correct audit of the accounts of ths departwent at Washington is to turn the republican party out of power.

PROTECTION TO AMERICAN CITIZENS

ABROAD.

From the day of-the nomination of Jumes G. Blaiue for the Presidency it has been stoutly maintained by his champions that he will receive a large vote of Irish-Americans who have hitherto voted the democratic ticket. If ruch aclaim could podsibly be true it would argue ithat such voters had wholly failed to inform themselves respecting Mr. Blaine’s record, so far as the same relates to the Irish people, and that they are raady to gulp down every word that is said in praise of Mr. Blaine and in defamation of Governor Cleveland, without a particle of investigation. We do not believe this tobe true.. In this community we have found no Irish Democrats who propose voting for. Mr, Blaine, and we have reason to behieve that very few |can be found anywhere. One thing is certain, Mr, Blaine has no honest claim upon the Irish vote. His action as secretary of state, during the ' brief period he held that portfolie, ought to forever condemn him in the eyes of all intelligent Irish-A mericin citizens. It will perhaps be remembered that the British parliament passed a measure known as the *Coercion Act,” March 2, 1881, By the' terms of, that act the Lord Lieutenant of Ireland was empowered to arrest and imprison any person found within the limits of his authority wk}om ne'might “suspect” of having designs antegonistic to British rule in Ireland, and the imprisonment of such suspected pstsins might be continued at the pleasuce if the Lord ‘Lieutenant. Soon after the passage of %‘the Coercion act a largs number of ‘baturalized American citizens were ‘geized, while visiting the land ot their birth, and they were thrown into prison, refused communication with their friends, and generally treated in the mest inhumau maoner by the agents of the British governmeunt. Among those who were go seized and imprisoned the cases of Daniel McSweeney, ‘Dennis O'Conner, Michael Boynton, Henry O’Mahoney and John McEnery have become specially noted from the fact that their friends appealed in vain for interferenge in their behalf to Jas. G. Blaine, who, was then at the head of the Stdte Department of the A mer ican goverrment, : ' The case of Daniel Mc3weeney has already been brought to the attention of the readers of the BANNER. His brave wife made a most eloquent appeal to Mr. Rlaine in hiz bshalf, but he turned a deaf ear to her earnast entreaty, All of the five men nam-d were fully naturalized as American | citizens, and were simply visiting the land of their nativity, as thousands of American citizens annually do. They were not engaged in any euterprise or | scheme inimical to British authority. They were simply suspscted by the Lord Lieutenant or bis agents, seized because of such suspicion and thrown | into jail witbout warrant, trial or conMetlon. . it 0 e ~ The cases of all theso men were| the United States Consal at Cork, who | in turp referred tho ceacs to Mr. Jus. | Russell Lowell, U’ American minis- | ST ey ,;;;.; _‘:"“ ”\ .: r.:s, ;

belittling to the American character, in the course of which he said:

‘“The Coercion’act, so-called, is an exceptional and arbitrary measure. Its chief object is to enableuale ‘English authorities to arrest persons whom they .sus?ect of illegal @nf:ct, -without being able to produce any proof of their guilt. Itsvery substance and main purpose are to deprive suspected persons of the speedy trial they desire. This law is, of course, contrary to the sgirit and foundatien principles of buth English and American jurisprudence; but it is the law of the land, and it controls all persons, whether they are British subjects or not, and it is manitestly entire1y futile to claim that naturalized citizens of the United States should be excepied frow its operation 5 . . . Unless I am instructed to the contrary by ‘the department of state, 1 must take this view of my daties, and it is proper that you should give this information to parties interested.” :

lu’ this letter the American minister cowardiy lowers the Amerl¢+n flag in the face of a British law which was admitted to be “contrary to the spirit and fuundation principles of both English] and American jurspru dence!” At/ the time Mr. Lowell wade this bumiliating econfession, Preident Garfield was lying upon his dealh-bed, stricken down by the assassin’s bullet, and James G. Biains was virtually President of the United States. As Seeretary of State he was directing our foreign policy. and in the absence of a superior officer, his will wus ull powerful. He at least migut have entered a solemn protest against such tyranical abuss of power,/and the subversion of every principlé of law and justice. But instead of doing this he accepted the excuse offered by Mr. Lowell, with a degree of supioeness rather more cowardly than that mauifedted by our triekling minister. Mr. P. C. O'Conner, of Baltimore, abrother ‘of onae of the “suspecis,” wrote directly to Mr. Blaine in the interest of bis imprisoned brother, and in his reply to that gentieman’s letter, Mr. Blaine, with a degresof nonchaiance to which language cannob do justice, coolly gays: . ; G ; “Mr. Lowell has pursued his instructions with great energy and sagacity, and in full sympathy with the feeling of his government.”’

" As Mr. Lowelldid nothing but make excuse for subversion of the first principies of law by the ‘British government, it i 3 to be presumed that his “great energy and sagacity” were utterly exhausted in framiog that excuse. And how flimsy that excuse was, yet it was perfectly satisfactory to-Mr. Blaine, “and in full sympathy with the feeling of his government.” As we have shown. Mr. Blaine was at the time the vory embodiment of the government, 8o far as the executive authority was concernsd. This is but another chapter in the history of the foul wrong which Jas. . Blaine has done to the Irish peocple, in recoguition of which he now asks the votes of Irishmen to make him President of the United States! Can Irish-Americans 8o . far forgst the wiongs doue to their countrymen that chey can go to ths polls and vote for Mr. n&;’sm? These who possess the true spirit of minhood chnnot and will not. e -

In ciosing this article we feel inclined to call attention to the contrast between Mr. Blaine and that of a democratic administration in protecting ‘American citizens temporarily sojourning abroad. We alluds to the celebrated case of Martin Korzta, un—der the administration of Franklin Pierce. Koszta was an Auatriansubjeet who took part in the Hungarian rebeliion nader Louis Kossuth,in 1848. When therebellion was crushed, Koszta oécapqd to Turkey, where he on—gaged io buasiness for a .timn'zmd then came to the Uvited States, where he took "the ozth of allogiancs and declared his intention, ia legal form. to becoma a citizen of this republic. e afterwards went back te Turkey for the purpose of closing up his business. Oue day, whils on the quay at Smyrna, he wis knocked overboard, picked up by an. armed boat crew, and carried on board the Austrian' ship of war Hussar. Koszia appealed to the American Consul, who demanded the relgase of the prisoner. While a correspondehce was pending, the Ameri~ can sloop of war, St. Louis, arrived.in port and the facts of the seizure were laid befure Commander Ingraham, who penned the following note: :

UNITED STATES SHIP ST, LOUIS, Hl July 2, 1853. }

Sir: I have been directed by the Amer ican Charge d’Aflairs:at Constantinople to demand the person of Martin Koszta, a citizen of the United States, arrested without authority, on Turkish soil, avd now confined on board the brig Hussar, under your command, and it a refusal is given, to take him by. force. An answer to this demand must be returned by 4 p. m.. this day. Respectfuily, : ‘D.:N. INGRAHAM, : . Commmander United States Navy. To Commander Schwarse, Austrian Brig, Hussar, 3

" This demand made, Commander Ingraham cleared his decks and prepared for action; but the Austrian officer made instant response, and the sequel of ths demand was that Martin Koszta was turned over a free man to the American auhorities, and he returned to New York, where he died. * The Koszta case caused a long diplomatic correspondence between Wm, L. Marcy, secretary of state, and Baron Hulseman, the Austrian minister at Washington. ' But Marcy was the victor, and Austria withdrew her demand for an apology. The ouse became an ‘authority with respect to the rights of American citizens abroad. Congress gave a vote of thanks to Commander Ingraham, and bestowed a medal upon him. The American name was then an amplo protection for citizens trave!ing in foreign lands. It was reserved for James G. Blaine to unsettle all this by allowing Irish-Americans to rot iu :British prisons, for no ranlt committed, beyond the fact Lhat"they are “suspected” of wrong-doing. In return for this abject cowardice, Blaine now appeals to Irishmen to make him President! L :

The Slander on Cleveland. g Mausfield (O.) Banner.

The mud slinging by the republican press has beégun in earnest. The Buffalo Telegraph has started the ball by publishing a three column onslaught upon Mr. Cleveland which beits any-— thing in the way of champion slander that the country has seen since the days of Gen. Jackson, when that old hero was made the subject of the meanest vituperation ever hurled at any prasedential candidate. Jackson survived the vile assaults upon his private character, and was triumph-autly:-elected, but his wife was driven broken®hearted ‘to her grave. Mr. Clevelaud has been assailed in the Buffalo Telegraph in the most outrageous and indecent manner and some of the worst offenses .in the ‘catalogue of crime and immorality are charged to him. 'These vile calumnies are so improbable that some of the more decent republican papers refuse to publish them. The same dlrty scandals were retailed when Mr., Cleveland ran for Mayor of Buffalo and again when he ran for Govenor, but the effeet of this viillainous defamation was only to increase his majority. The Buffalo paper which now revamps these stale lies isB an organ of theslums of Buffalo aud a sheet utterly without character. Such assaults from such a source will react and do infinitely 'more damags to the party that iunvents and circulates them than they ean possibly injure Mr. Cleveland. :

Bre Withount Yeast,

- Itisa well known fact ‘that bread made with yeast, if eaten before it becomes stale, ferments again in the stomach, producing .indigestion and numerous other complaints. Bread .-raised with Royal Baking Powder, instead of yeast, is entirely without this defect; but on the contrary is one of the most effectual preventives of indigestion or dyspepsia. DBy the use of the Royal Baking Powder the saccharine properties of the flour, which are destroyed by fermentation with yeast, are preserved and the bread is made more nufritious. Ten. per cent. more ‘bread is baked—because of this saying —from the same quantity of flour, The Royal Baking Powder will also make sweet, white bread from an inferior quality of flour; a property possessed by no other leavening agent. Thus. rauch flour that is dark in color, or from other cause, is: considered below the finer grades, and therefore much cheaper, can be utilized and turned into a perfectly sweet and wholesome bread. - Nor can bilter bread ever result from the ‘use of too much, or more than the required quantity of Royal Baking Powder; as whether used ‘in. small or large quantities, its proportions are in such éxact equivalents that they always neutraliz= each other. Bread madein this way dues not require mixing over pight, but may be prepared ready fori the oven 10 a few minutes; an advantage that will be readily appreciated by every housekeeper. - 1

The Trammps Devastating ¥arms and

Orchards,

The tramps are now on their travels, and commit depredations on the corn fislds for roasting ears, potatoe patches and orchards. A reporter noticed two gangs of tramps between here and Goshen on Monday, numbering four and nine in each gang, stalwart, burly fellows. Oue gang was going: east, the other west., Both were camping near corn fields, and were cooking ‘green corn, potatoes, ete., while one of the gangs was supplied with a .large fowl, which a-fat fellow was denuding of its feathers. Along the road at several places corn ficlds had- been entered by the tramps. At Millersburg four burly, saucy fellows, who had stolen a ride from some point west, openly mude war upon the conductor, and he h4d to threaten fo use his pistol to force them from his train. People in thetowns, and the farmers are naturally suspicious of every stranger, owing to the professional tramps. Persens who are in v’\yant.., and honestly suffering for work, fail in many instances to obtain it, owingto the number of vagrants and tramps abroad.
