There are but few things' in which we have anything but admiration for that ablest of state paper?, tin" Jvdinrtovolts Journal, but its envious jealously of Chicago, and especially as shown in a disposition to croak end jeer every time when difficulties and misunderstandings arise in the great and complicated task of arranging all the preliminaries for the world’s fair, is not only unworthy of a great newspaper, but would be despicable even in the pettiest crossroads weekly. From the fact that all of the People’s party vote was given to Patton in this district, he had a larger majority over Owen than was given to the Democratic state ticket, in this district, but, notwithstanding that fact, the claim made - by the Democrats that Owen ran behind his ticket is knowingly and intentionally false. The official figures give the Republican vote in the district on the state ticket as 16,085 and Owen’s veto as 16,100. Mr. Owen therefore received 15 more votes in the district than the Republican state ticket.

A great tin-plate manufactory is to be established at Blwoodi a natural gas town in Madison cc-unty, this state, which will employ 400 men. This establishment is only one of a dozen or more similar establishments now in progress of organization in different, parts of the country, and there is no good reason to doubt but that-in a oom--paratively very brief time, the twenty millions ar.d more of money now sent out of the country every year to pay for foreign tin will all be kept at home, to the large benefit of all the industrial classes, especially the farmers; and all on account of the moderate duty levied on imported tin by the McKinley bill. A good many papers have lately, with evident satisfaction, published the story that ten years ago Bob Ingersoll made the prophecy that in ten years (now expired) there would be more theaters built than clinches and that Chaplain McCabe had written to the Colonel telling him ihat the Methodists were now building four new churches every day. and asking him to make a-new prophecy. The paragraph has been called to Colonel Bub’s attention and he say 3 the story is correct with the two trifling exceptions that first he never made such a prophecy and second, that he never received such a letter from Chaplaig Me Cabe. Wonder if the papers which were so swift to publish the erronioas statement will be equally as ready to publish the correction. Two representatives of the great silk plush firm of Lister & Company, of Bradford. England, have been sent to the United States to select a cite for mills in this coun\t*y. The Listers do the biggest

plush business in Europe and employ 5,000 operatives, and nearly three fourths of their products have heretofore been sold in the United States'. How blind indeed' must be the people who can not see the befiificient operation of the McKinley bill in compelling the movement of such establishments as this to our own country! The mills they will establish will not only give" employment to hundreds and perhaps thousands of Americans, but they will demand supplies of all kinds, for their use, food for their employes, and benefits thus distributed among all classes of workers. And this case is only one of hundreds and thousands that will infallibly result if the Protective policy is firmly adopted in this conn try. - , >'

If on thirty different kinds of articles and products there be levied a tariff of thirty per cent, and this tariff produces a revenue of forty millions a year; and if 'the McKinley bill takes- the tariff clean off from fifteen of these thirty articles and lets them in [ duty flip; and at the same time' raises the duty on the remaining forty articles to forty per cent., would tiiat be an actual raising or lowering of the tariff? No candid” man will deny that it is a lowering of the tariff, for in the first case the average tariff on the thirty original' articles wns thirty per cent, and after the tariff was wholly taken off from fifteen of them, and on the othei} fifteen raised to 40 per cent, the average on the whole thirty would be only 20 per cent. This is, in effect, just what the McKinley bill has done. Although the tariff on certain articles has been increased, in many others it has been decreased and in still more cases has baen taken off entirely; and the result has been not only a decrease in the average per cent, of the tariff as computed on all the aiticks that paid a tariff before the bill was passed, but will also, without doubt, cause a large reduction in the revenues of the government—a disideratum to be wished above all things t on earth, if we are to credit the arguments used by Mr. Cleveland in his famous free-trade message to Conarc 38.

Dishonesty Found Out.

: Boston Journal: Some copies. of the McKinley bill have lately made their way abroad, and our European friends are discovering to their surprise and intense gratification that the new law r as it was described to them and the new law as it actually stands are" two very different measures. Europe accepted the statements of the foreign importers in this country and their organs, and gathered the impression that the new tariff as such papers as the Boston Herald put it, enormously increased duties all along the line. Transatlantic merchants who were assured that the act was prohibitive, and that it would paralyze commerce between the old world and the new, are now delighted to find that they were humbugged, and that the effects of the law have been grossly and inexcusably exaggerated. They have had their eyes open to the unscrupulousness or the “tariff reform” press and politicians as never before. The conservative Fnaneial Times of London vo'ces the new European sentiment when it says that the “excessive unpopularity” of the law abroad “was largely due to exaggeration on the part of the American democrats, who have, spared no expense or misrepresentation in raising opposition to the scheme.” This policy of wholesale misrepresentation has donfe its work, but it ought toasting the Democratic leaders not a little, in the very flush of their triumph, to reflect that the disreputable measures by which it was achieved have won for th 4 Democracy the contempt of honest men on both sides of the ocean.

POST ELECTION PRICES.

We have been waiting .with some interest to gee Low the FreeTrade press, when the logic of events had demonstrated to. the p -«>ple the. enormity ,of the deception practiced upon them, would get out of the "awkward position into which it has been placed by Its wholesale lying about advancing priueS; 1 . _t We knew that at least a tacit confession of dishonesty meet come, but we were not prepared for the open confession which appeared in the New York World of November 17, that its ante-elec-tion ahhbnncenLentß of advancing prices were for the most part products of the imagination. This paper, which above all others insisted {fiat prices were “jamping” in response to the McKinley bill, now that the election is over and the votes of its readers counted for Free-Trade, has the audacity to inform them that while “in the ■clothing trade wholesalers and retailers report business booming,” yet the tariff Las not advanced prices, although woolens are especially protected in the new bill. The article in question furnishes so strong an argum mt for Protection, in addition to demonstrating .the World's dishonesty, that we quote from it at some length: Business is reported very good among the clothiers in this clty r . The wholesalers are very well satisfied with what they are doing, and the retailers say the sales during the last two months have been about 25 per cent, greater than during the same months last year. They say, also, they they anticipate a cold winter, and in consequence expect a good trade. There is no good reason why the purchaser of ready-made clothing should shudder on account of the new Tariff bill. Although the duties are raised from 40 cents to cents per pound and from 35 per cent, to 60 per cent, advalorcm, it will not, according to the Clothier and Furnisher, have any appreciable effect on the price of clothing, as no ready I made clothing is imported. The increased weight on woolens and the various trimmings that enter into the manufacture will eventually have the effect of increasing the price from 10 to 15 per cent, on garments made of imported materials; but this will hardly ensue before another year passes, as stocks are already purchased several months in advance. It is probable that by that time other causes will have operated to counteract this increase; so that in tins particular branch no noticeable advance will take place, unless clothing is affected" by the general rise in prices. Besides,"domestic manufacturers are largely supplying the woolens now used in this country.

Here we have the post election announcement. First, that sales this year q,re 25 per cent, greater than for the same time last year; second, that purchasers need not shudder on account of the Tariff bill, since the tariff liasnot and will not increase prices of ready made clothing; third, that this is due to the fact that ready made clothing has been so effectively protected as to give the American manufacturer a complete monopoly of the domestic market; fourth, that the tariff will affect chiefly goods made of imported materials; fifth, that even thiß increase will not appear for a year yet: sixth, that before that tyear is up other causes will probably have intervened so that there really will be no rise at all; and seventh that another cause of low prices is the facilities of American mills to supply the demand. When the World gets to talking about neckties, it warms up to its subj ect and eloquently pleadk for protection thus: Dealers report this a more than usually prosperous neckweav season. It has been estimated by manufacturers that at least one-half of the people of the United Slates, or 30,000,000 we"r neckties of some kind. If each pevson wears three ties or scarfs a year, 90,000,000 ties will be required to supply the demand. These ties are made by women at a cost of 50 cents to $1.50 per dozen. Labor, however, is but a small part of the morey entering into the cost Ten million boxes are necessary, at a cost of 10 cents each. One yard of cotton flannel enters into the composition of each dozen scarfs, and 10 cents a dozen is paid for labels and bands to the printer. If this industry is fully protected the American workmen will receive for wages $7,500,000; boxmakers, $1,000,000; domes-

tic manufacturers of linings, <fec., §750,000: total, §10,000,000. If 90,000.000 ties are Worn in this country and $10,000,000 are paid the work-; men the cost of each tie will be if cents. The truth will occasionally creep into the news colums of the World to contradict its free-trade editorial ravings. * - ,
