the Democratic party is stronger. 1t is the
only great living vital organization that has
or can withstand the Democratic party 1t
is powerful, compact, hopeful organiza-
ton Republicans don't mean to
change their name or their issues they are
too strong, too powerful, too confident for
that, and yet you are invited by some Ken
tuclians to go in with them and form Peo-
Pies party, to break down this great domi-
nant party Don't deprociate the
strength of the Republican party. Its prin-
cples arc deeper and broader. and its pur-
poses more rcsolute than anything on the sur
face would indicate. Don't underrate their
power.
AMERICAN INDUSTRY SAcRFfcrp TO
FoREloN.-The free trade papers find signs
of great prosperity in the decline of our
shipping, inasmuch as it shows that other
nations can perform the carrying trade cheap
cr for us than we can do it ourselves, and the
difference is put down in our favor; the idle
ness OF our own shipping not being consid-
cred worthy of going into the account An
other fact equally gratifying to these theorists
has been discovered, that boilers can be inn
ported with the present price Of labor abroad
cheaper than they can be made at home
This may close a good many workshops here,
and throwa pooa many mechanics and inborors
out of employment. hut the free traders ass-
sure MS that il contributes to the national
prosperity. bv giving MS our boilers cheaner
than we should otherwise obtain them.
Thus it is that, under our present revenue
system ono branch of industry after another
is driven ont Of America, and into foreign
hands. With abundant capital and cheap
