"Republican bell fire and brimstone is rendr for a blaze."

Till: only good tiling the Republican District Convention did at Eriktville la»t Thursday was making F. it. Posey State Committeeman. 1 - No m>.\ can honestly claim favor of -> the men whom he has injured by assessing high tax, especially when the government does uot need any such a tax. Ox the 3d, inst. negroes robbed W. W. Culbertson, grocer, Evansville. l*istols aud threats of death made him surrender the cash. No clue to the robber*. Jam'srv hoards up #14.500.000. a yearly rate of #175,000.000. Democrats say stop. Republican* say keep ou. The people will say something next election. I r l^W* have not yet heard of the National party's' call for a committee meeting, and therefore can furnish no news of the kind. This is our answer to Mr. Q., who wauts information op the subject, I.1' I Do all you can to benefit the poor. I^et no law find favor in voui sight, if such l*w favors one class more than another, especially when the poor are less considered than the rich A raw Republican exchanges ate just now making fun of a bill introduced in Congress by Congressman Landes, of the loth Illinois district, providing for bounties to farmers. Soch are thejviyjofthgold party. - The business failures for last year were almost 2,000 less than they were daring the rear immediately preceding the inauguration of President Cleveland, yet the uumber of busipesa firms has increased over 400,000 daring that time. 'pie Press favors the re-electiou of tope of the recently elected officers of the National party,'but says nothing •boat the re-electiou or the rc-nomina-tion of the Republicans that may yet be candidates, nor of the election of i bat Nationals. So the r

A cox»it»K»ABi.K reduction of the taritf on woolen goods can be made 1 without crippling the home munu-' facturers. for goods can be soKI much j cheaper than they are now sold, and i there wilt stilt Ik* realized handsome | profits to the manufacturer. In view j of this, the tariff cau be reduced ou raw wool, ami the wool grower will j still realize as much clear money as . if lie were more highly protected, | with a high lax ou what he buys. Reduction on both the raw wool and i manufactured wool is the thing to i save the wool grower. The taxon! cotton goods can be largely removed with good to all classes. The free Ifst should be increased in a great many { instances. And if, after such reductions as this, there should still I be a necessity of more reduction, in-] stead of touching whisty, let to- i bacco revenue reduction first take the j benefit. Let “free whisky *’ and “free I tobacco” be the last resort. Thcro are i thousands by thousands of poor who j can scarcely make a living—a condl-: lion brought about by “this cruel | war”—and who, in yiew of mercy j anil bumanitarianism should first! have the benefit of the first legislation j on tariff. A poor inau ought to hate i the tariff. A poverty stricken wo-1 mau ought to hate and loth tariff. All i people who love their neglibors a» they love themselves, if their judge-! meats tie not misguided, will hate,; lothe and despise that robbor tax.' “Lct’er go, (Jalagber!"

Won’t Want It. __ Ik the Democrats arc wiseihcv nil) elect : K. P. Itkituinlson t hairnian, and J. I..1 Mount secretary, ttecupying sueti post-) lion* the two men arc worth one hundred vote* to their party. Nominate them.— j IVtcrshuix Sen*. of the Democratic-. County Central j Committee, amt we also offer the char- j liable consideration that the editor of j the Xcw‘s lint! none other than com-! plimeutary intentions in makingsuch a suggestion. While this is charitable, ] and while Mr. Itictumlaon would l>ej willing to sacrifice any thing rensona- ■ hie for I ho sucres* ot thetinte-honercd party, yet there is no desire on t'jp part of Mr. It. to act in such capacity. We have heard liixt say t^at lie would "not accept the posit vm tinder auy circumstances.’’ As for the editor of the TDishocrat, die Democrats have no intention of asking him to do the work on the <Agan ot the party, and, at the s:u„u- time, do.the work that liecessar'ially must be great, considering tijt! work the editor of this, paper is» compelled to do,‘getting out a newspaper with the aid of only one hr.od. We arc obliged to friend flarrell for the compliment, as well as to the Democrats, if auy there be who have suggested the like, but must say that there are no probable j circumstances which could induce us I to accept so important a position. ('mining Jim IMaine. ■hats G. Bi.ujjk.'s ideas'on free ! competition in tobacco and whisky, I is by' no means appropriate. lie {knows the prices on these articles ' are governed by pools and syndicates {anyhow. It I:e really wanted to do the poor,a kindest he could hare sugI gested a reduction on the necessaries of life. But if he had 1 done tlds, the manufacturing lords of New l'ugland and Pennsylvania would hare not favored him. for those money lords cani not rob the |>oor except when the government helps them : for. in case of j outrageous prices, foreign competition w ould step in, though sticb eotn- ! petition could not he atTorded, save when price*, arc enormously high in America, as evidenced by the fact that | shipping goods to America costs more j titan any difference of wages between this and any foreign nation. Thus it i is tiiat iu fair trade the American citizen finds his only safety.

.Republican vs. Soldiers. —- ■ Those seldiers who think the RcpubI lican party so loved the soldier that it j gave its only begotten chauce for off ticc to save the veteran can smoke ia their pipes from yjte ilepubhcan organ of tiidiaua the following: i "General liovey, of this Sut«, has iutro- ' duced in the House a bill to pav to soldiers : of the late war a suui e<iaal tu 40 per cent, i of the amount of their original pay, to make Rood the difference between the value of the i greenbacks in which they were paid and the gold coin in which the greenbacks were eventually redeemed. General liovey ia an able man and was a gallant soldier, but we think his zeal for the veterans is carrying him too far.—Iudianapolis Journal. This is stroug enough Republican paper fbr the most radical. The j Journal may not be so bad a* it at first seems if wecousider that liovey‘s | sole object is to catch votes at the ex- | peuse of the voter. But the Journal | and liovey are Radicals in the KeI publican file and cau fight it out. Tuk democrat papers of this district, I without exception, so far as we have obj served, have taken a stand in opposition to I the liberal and just pension measures advocated in congreas by General Mover.— Princeton Clarion. The paper that has kicked the hardest against liovey is the Indianapolis ; Journal, the acknowledged leader of Republicanism in Iudiana. It seems to be the leading Republicans who “have taken a stand agaiust the pension measure advocated in Congress by Hovey£_ "And the time drmweth nigh" when Bro. Stubblefield will be beard of as a candidate no more! Alas! No more!- Democrat. Stubblefield will be re-nominated and reelected by a bigger majority than eTer—notwithstanding he will have the opposition of j the Frees and DsyocBAT. — Petersburg ; News. As to bis being a candidate, be is; the best timber in your party, and you yave to uominate him whether you want to or not. Who wilt be the next paper to He about Voorhees ? And what will the next fitlsebood be ? —-in— ■

jBjga,..BHBBi . greatest cause of suffering in this op'd l«nd, aecardiusc to Democratic authority, U that we have too much money on baud ami are paying our debts too rapidly. —Petersbutg l*re*s. it is well for the Press to acknowledge great cause of suffering. Mot the Gover nment that is suffering, however. The Government It on the safe side, autl always should be, but the Government would be as well off as it is without so much monev in the treasury. Why should the Government collect money for which it has no need iis a question which should engage the attention of the Press. Why don’t the Press tell its readers why a Democratic Secretary of State was compelled to buy up a large; amouut of undue debts at a premium ? ] Was it to prevent financial panic?; and are uot there now an accumulated surplus in the treasury which the! government can not use in any legal way ? Does not that money belong in tine hands of the laborers of the country from whom it came? lias the government any right to exact such high tax iu limes of peace? War uot the laws that made these excessive collections enacted for revenue at. a lime when the country was iu w?jy and needed the money ? lias not the Republican party cried out against the system, ami always explained that such tax should uot be assojked for any ether than the purpose _cf meeting the government's obligations? Does tiic Press favor tax tor the sake of eurichiug the Xew England mouDocs the Pros* favor high that the pr/or wears and lower tax on all U>.nt ouly the ric/j buy? Is it lair to legislate in favor of the rich as a gainst the poor—the very thing Hei nblicans have b/cu doey |ord ? tax on all

ii># i Do people want t’nis kind of law making? Have not the Republicans pledged themselves to reform tlu^* laws, and have they uot only re /used to remedy these curses but have do ue all they canto keep the Democrats from doing this work ? Is there not a Republican Senate to nmlo anything in this line which the Democrats uiav originate iu tht lower House? Have they not threaten®! to do just these things? Do not the Republicans favor laws that make the ricii richer and the poor poorer? Have there not spriigupa» a result of t a rill legislation iu this country au army of tramps and millionaires—both curses to a Ctoveruuient"? Are not laborers wages less now than tinder fairer tade? Is not the price of farm produce less than it was when the Republican tariff machine commenced to rob the people? Vow. if these are not enough, wo will a-k you li ve hundred more questions. But what's the use? The Republican high tax organ of Pike County w ill not answer them, as has been iudieated by the refusal to attempt any ausivers to any question or positiou during the recent tariff controversies. ; We can tell, better than the Press has told, the cause “of suffering iu this oppressed land."

It is now becoming n question among the locJI township politicians wiwtber Washington Trustee M.-Murray shall be “set down on," or whether he shall he allowed to run lor another term.— Democrat. The only politicians that want to "set down ou M -Murray are those that wauled to be the Democratic County Stiperiutendent. and spent fifty dollars to defeat Me Murray. Me. can have the office another term if he w ants it.—Petersburg New s. And you may just piint It black that the Republicans have no use fur McMurray. He dou't suit the town, you know. He can nominate himself, though, and elect himself. 1m conclusion. we defy you to prove that wcever used a cent to defeat McMutray. As far as lie is concerned, he has a better frieml in the.editor of the Democrat than he lias in many who pretend to oc his ft iiMids: aud that you tua; also print in black. The licpnblicau papers do a deal | of useless work trying to make it apf pear that Gov. Hill, of Xew York, is a ; candidate for the Presidency, aud that lie will certainly defeat Cleveland for the uomiuution. They can rest easy. The Democrats are uot going to make | such fools of themselves. It -would [please the oppositiou too well to see the 4A-HUKrats alt broken tip by the disappointment of not seeing Cleveland at tlic bead of the political procession in tho coming campaign. Cleveland will be nominated bv acclamation, atnd will be elected by an overwhelming majority. •Tmu Government may rightfully collect money by taxation and then donate it as a bounty or subsidy to individuals or curporatious engaged iu particular industries or particular commercial enterprise, iu order to make their private business profitable, why may it not also collect it aud distribute: it among particular classes of the people in order to equalize their fortunes, and thus accomplish all that Socialism aud Communeisut are demanding 1*”—Speaker Carlisle-. Who will be the man to stir up mniace in the Democratic ranks iu the comiug campaign? Hunt him out, and tell him to attend to the principles upon which he bases his opinion, to fight for that; and, like a true American patriot, let alt selfish motives lose themselves as soon as the light for manly and ennobling principles are aroused iti the patriotic heart. All in line, noble Democracy! We pau se te remark that Mrs. John A. Logan aud Mrs. Blair are drawing pensions granted by the present administration, the assertions of many Republican papers to the contrary notwithstanding. There can be no doubt that there was much dirt on both aides. Coy was found out first and gets 18 mo. iu prison and JBeraharmer 12. Winslow will smell Democratici Saturday.

; second, that articles of wearing than before this reduction in tariff; and fourth, the beneficiaries of the tariff, employed in protected ijtdv.strie*, outnumber all the rcnr«1nderr>f tn© popuiatiou; aud that, fifth, it is upt unjust to tax the i/iiiKu-ity for the beuefit of the majority, pror ided the minority do not soffej> thereby let us ask him, first, what is Webster defiiur. a tax as “a especially a pecuniary borden; a levy ot any kind uim'ie upon property for the support of the Government.” It is not so’.netljlmg contributed bv the Governrueut, to tiie citizen. 11 is a contribution jv tKe citizen to the sun

port of tjie Gov eminent. It is uot an ad/iti^n to thi aggregate wealth, but a subtraction. A tax does not create, itf/astroys; it takes from the taxpayer a portion of his earnings, nqmijally for the support of the Government. Noav the tariff is taxation. It is a tax levied on Imported good*. If a farmer sends twelve bushels of wheat abroad, and buys live pairs of blankets, when the blankets reach the custom-house the Government takes two as it* share, which pay the tax on the three that remain. That is tariff taxation. Instead of adding any thing to the farmer's blankets, it reduces the number front five to three, devrasing his wealth to that extent. Ills neighbor learns ofthis,and w hen he sends his wheat to market, he does not try to buy his blankets abroad; he goes to the domestic manufacturer with the money he has received for his wheat. ‘He finds that instead of getting live blankets he only gets three, the manufacturer keeping the two, as the Government did. These illustrations tell the whole story. Instead of increasing the wealth of these farmers, we see that the tariff has materially lessened it. This is the condition that Iras made the manufacturing States richer than agricultural ones. There is too much protection. Democrats oppose it. No tax adds or can by any possibility add anything to the wealth of any peophv uutil the half of a thing is more than the w hole. The tariff does uot add to the wealth of the people, but it does take money from the farming class and give it to the manufacturer. The manufacturers call this “prosperity,” but the proper name is confiscation, lint, says Junius, the country is more prosperous than ever before. Not at all. ‘The increase in the value of farms from 1850 to 1860, a perod of revenue tariff, was 100 per cent. Between 1860 and 1870, high tariff, it w as only 41 per cent.* and from 1870 to IS®)only i) per cent. Under a revenue tariff the value of the farms increased $8,273,-169,581 in ten years. Under a tariff for protection the value of farms increased in twenty years, only $3,639,051.7C9. From I860 to I860 the increase iu the value of farm machinery and implements increased 92 per cent; from 1860 to IS70, high tariff, only 20 per cent. Live stock,In the decade of a revenue tariff, increased 100 per cent; during the next sen years it in-erea-ed only 40 per cent., and from 1870 to 1880 it actually decreased. Taking all three of these items, which make up our agricultural wealth, we find that in ten years, under a system ! of taxatiou, limited to the needs of the

| Government, the wealth oi me lartuj era increased $>.013,110,433, or 101 j percent, while the total increase for twenty years tinder protection was only $1,1*22,338,481. This shows that under a protective tariff it takes a farmer two years to save what he saves iu one year under a tariff for reveune only. So natch for the plea that the country lias flourished mow under protection thau under so-called free trade. But our Republican friends reply that all the necessary articles of wearing' apparel are cheaper now thau prior to 1300. Ixt us see. i The past twenty five years have been , the most remarkable in the history of I the world, in the increase and in the S perfection of machinery. Every thing is cheaper bow than before 1800, but prices have decreased more in Euglaud than in America, the results of invention are, a part ot tlie common heritage of the race, due to ' machinery and not to the tariff. But i for the tariff every' article a laruier has to buy would be cheaper thau jjt Is. The tariff is imposed to keep i the tarnier from getting the full benI efit of low prices. Here is the way it : works. The lax on mixed dress goods I costing 34 cents a square yard is 90 ; per cent.; on mixed dress goods costiag 2LJ» cents per square yard is 82 | per cent. Mixed woolen aud cotton j goods, 36 inches wide, require, let u« ; sav, feu yards for a dress. For a ! dress costing 13.40 the tax is 42.04,aud | the tariff compels the farmer to pay |#3.44 for what without the tariffin' j would get for #3.40. For ten yards ot mixed goods, sufficient to make two dresses tor the children, the cost would l>e #2.13, the tax 41.75,a total of i 43,88, for what would cost, except for the tariff, only 42.13. This difference ; runs all through the list of domestic j articles and is a sufficient auswer to the absurd claim that the tariff cheapens the cost of wearing apparel. Now we eome to the fourth argument that beneficiaries of the tariff, those employed ia protected industries out number the remainder of the population. According to the census ofl880 there were 7,670,402 persons employed iu agriculture unprotected; in professional and personal services 4,074,238 unprotected, while in every branch of miners and manufactures not over one-half of whom can be protected, there are only 3,837,112 bands employed. Here is a total of 15,581,843 whose occupation ia given, of whom only 2,000,000 at the utmost| s?’"v ’.vSs

lowing 3‘i fversonss work and, -we have seven millions' ol the e atire population of fifty n lh>u8 w/ko derive an/ benefit from the tariff. Instead of being :in a majority- /brig-three millions are taxed to rqrport seven millions. Iu view of pjjjWl»agure3 it is scarcely necessiry ho examine the claim that there is no harm in taxing the few "or the benefit of the mauy. If it wore true, still justice demands fair play to the minority. Democrats iusict that it is a wrong to tax one man for the benefit of ten: one man has his rights and the government is formed to secure him iu theenjoyineut ol them. EPITHELIOMA! OR Skl\ CANCER.
