JAMES G. BLAINE. -THE ISSUE OF PROTECTION IS INCALCULABLY STRONG-, ER AND GREATER THAN ANY MAN. FOR IT CONCERNS THE PROSPERITY OF THE PRESENT AND pF GENERATIONS YET TO POME WERE IT POSSIBLE FOR EVERY VOTER OF THE RERUBLIC TO SEE FOR HIMSELF THE CONDITION AND RECOMPENSE OF LABOR IN EUROPE THE PARTY .OF FREE TRADE IN THE UNITED STATES WOU LD NOT RECEIVE TH E SU PPORT OF ONE WAGE-WORKER BETWEEN THE TWO OCEANS. IT MAY NOT BE DIRECTLY IN OUR .POWER AS I’HII-ANTHROP--ISTS TO ELEVATE THE EUROPEAN LABORER, BUT IT WILL B® A LASTING STIGMA UPON OUR STATESMANSHIP IF WE PERMIT THE AMERICAN LABORER TO BE FORCED DOWN TO TJIE EUROPEAN LEVEL. AND IN THE END THE REWARDS J»F LABOR EVERYWHERE WILL BE ADVANCED IF WE STEADILY REFUSE TP LOWER THE STANDARD AT HOME.

The expression of the people Aver the nomination of Harrison and Morton, is too plain to be denied or misunderstood. Everywhere Republicans ore well pleased with the candidates—more than well pleased, enthusiastic, in fact The official statement of the Auditor of that thoroughly demo-r cratic county, Pulaski, shows.. that the county is carrying an indebtedness, over all assets, of $22,979 85. Taxes have always been very high,' in that county, too.

If anyone wishes to know the real facts regarding Gen. Harrison's relations with the strike of 1877 and with the question of labor, generally, let him read the article from the Indianapolis Journal, on one of our inside pages, that account is from the official reedrds and the words of unimpeachable eye-witnesses,' and its truth can not be gain-said.

The Republicans had a big ratification meeting in New Albany last Saturday night, and Democrats bril>ed a drunken Chinaman to decorate his washee house and to stand in the door and shout ‘■Hoolah for Hallison!” It was well known who were the authors were exposed and denounced, at the meeting. Such dirty tricks as that no good;^' ~ v- ■■ ~ General Harrison is a Christian gentleman, a humane, broad-mind-ed, kind-hearted man. In the

true sense of the word, he is truly and thoroughly democratic in his sympathies and instead o| being unfriendly to the the common people, as his enemies would have appear, he has always been their fnemf and sympathizer, and no man can truly cite any weird or act of his, iq contradiction of this assertion.

The Prohibitionists and Temperance people who are finding fault with the Republican platform lieoause of its falsely so-call-ed free whiskey platform, should remember that the repeal of the |ninterpal revenue taxes is fayored only in case of the ooeurenoe of a very unlikelyoontingency, and as a choice between two evils, while in the case of the Prohibition platform, the demand for the repeal of all internal revenue taxes is made peremptoyially and without con. ditions.

The official call for the Republican State Convention, shows that the candidates for district presidential electors and alternates, will be nominated at that convention, instead of at the Congressional convention, as has been heretofore stated. The , congressional ponVontiop in this district will not be a very extensive affair, as its sole duty will be simply to give official sanction to the unanimous wishes of the Republicans of the district, by renominating Hon. W. D.’ Owen.

The New York Independent, one of the leading religious papers of thr country, thus sizes Mr. Cleveland up, in the following language: His pledges were magnificent; his disgraceful.” * Ins scheme of civil service was fine; its fullfillment a farce.” “He set out to lift the Democratic party; he epds by letting down the government.” “He began as a conspicuous reformer; he is ending as a conspicuous failure,” “We do not want a second term of such a man as Groyer Cleveland.”

TARIFF IS THE ISSUE.

Fathers of the Republic tyere for Protection. - ■■■7 Gegrge Washington. Congress have repeatedly, and not without success, directed their attention to the encouragement of manufactures. The objept is of too much consequence not to insure a continuance of their efforts every way which shall appear eligible. Benjamin Franklin. Every manufacturer encouraged in our country makes part of a market for provisions within ourselves, and saves so much money to the country as must otherwise be exported to pay for the manufactures he supplies. Alexander Hamilton. There are natural causes tending to render the external demand for the surplus of agricultural nations a precarious reliance. Thomas Jefferson. We must now place our manufacturers by the side of the agriculturist Experience has taught me that manufactures are now as necessary to our independence as to our comfort, Jorn Quincy Adams. The great interests of an agricultural, commercial and manufacturing nation are so linked in union together that no permanent cause of prosperity to one of them can operate without extending its influence to the others. / Andrew Jackson. Epon the success of our manufactures, as the handmaid of agriculture and commerce? depends in a great measure the independence of our country, and none can feel more sensibly than I do the necessity of encouraging them. J Daniel "Webster. That is the truest American policy which shall most usefully employ American capital and American labor, and best sustain the whole population. .... Agriculture, commerce and manufactures will prosper together or languish together. ■Abraham Lincoln. lam in favor of a Protective Tariff and internal improvements.

The fariff and "Trusts”

' The men who have assumed the task of tearing down the barriers, by which our markets are defend-jedj-andrjbetter-Returns for labor insured, seem determined to make the policy of Protection odious by falsely char ging it with responsibility for every unpopular condition which the business of the country experiences. / '

Among the more recently discovered evils of a protective policy to which these free trade advocates point is the alleged fostering of “trusts." But here, as else, where, facts are against them, as will be seen by a glance at history past and present. --“Trusts," dr f'pqols,” or combinations by Whatever name, are far from being modern contrivances for control ing prices, and are by no means confined to the United States. In fact the “trust” of today is of English origin; and unfortunately for the free trade advocate’s purpose, did not come into prominence in England until 1848—two years after the adoption by that nation of Ijer exfeting free trade "policy. This combination was iirthe tin mining district of Cornwall and Devonshire, and was intended to effect the price of a metal on which there was no tariff!: Coming down to the present: the great copper “trust,” which recently succeeded in carrying up prices to an unprecedented figure, originated in France, where tlierp are do copper mines sq protect. England to-day has a coal oil trust, though no oil wells, and nb tariff on coal oil. Canada, like ourselves, Jias a sugar trust, while allowing sugar to enter her ports free of duty. Here in the United States our most formidable “trust" is the Standard oil company, with coal oil on the free list. (It may be well to remember that the present Secretary of the Navy is a member of the Standard oil combination.) Then again, we have the Coffee “trust,” which has succeeded iq materially increasing the price of coffee within the past year and a half, while every one who cares to inquire knowmtlmt coffee has been on the free list since 1873.

In the face of facts like these, it is daily charged that “trusts” — inherited from England, and flourishing as never before under the present pro-British administration —are an joutgrowth of the American protective policy. The same free trade adyocates, with unabashed inconsistency, charge against a protective tariff that it materially increase? the prices of protected products. This, if true, would operate to render cqmbinations all tlie more difficult, by requiring increased capital for holding and arpitrarily forcing up the prices of commodities. The real truth is that all these commercial combinations, like those between railroad managers, are very little, if at all, affected by customs laws; aud the evils uHth which they threaten the country are to be averted by National and State legislation, rendering all combinations’ more difficult, and keeping every business avenue open to untrammelled competition. This appeal of free trade advocates to the general prejudice against “trusts” but betrays the absence of facts and arguments in support of the unpatriotic policy they espoused,, ami will Receive none bus the unthipking.
