FREE rRADE LEAGUE.
A DcmOnstraIIve Meeting at
milwaukee,.

MILWAUKEE,, Nov. 4.-The Milwaukee
Free Trade League held a meeting here
TO night. The attendance was good con-
sidering The weather.
Hon, E. J. Holton presided, and read a
long list of Vice Presidents and Secretar-
ies, composed of the principal citizens of
the place.
Mahlon Sands, Secretary of the New
York Free Trade League, first spoke, re-
viewing brlhy the objects and methods of
the society
Gen Brinkerhoff, of Ohio, was then in
tIeduced, aud for an hour deeply interested
the audience IN an exposition OF the prac-
Iieal workings of the tariff, taking as an
axiom that the duty upon an imported ar
iiele increases the price of the home pro-
ductiOn. r
He demonstrated that for every dollar
received by the Government. from the tar
III, the people paid twenty dollars to mo-
nOpOlists. Estimating the home production
OF lumber al one hundred and fifty MIL
lions OF dollars per annum. The duty of
twenty per cent taxed the people thirty
millions, and yet the Government received
less than seven hundred thousand. Esti-
mating the prodilnt Of s.;, ;s~,.s-1s-N5IiSs 1HfT
million ton, the duty of nine dollars tax
Gu Ihe people nearly nTteen millions and
gives the Government one million of dol.
lars. The duty on bar iron taxed the peo-
pie twenty millions, and gave to the Gov
ernment one million of dollars.
The duty on Railroad iron taxed the
people fourteen millions and gave the Gov
eminent one and half million of collars,
On three articles of iron alone, the people
pay annually about forty five millions tax,
Of which the government gets five millions
and the iron master forty millions. Thus
said the eloquent speaker, in a thousand
ways the tOiling millions are plundered to
build up few grasping mOnOpolists.
Prof. Perry was the next speaker. He
was listened to with marked attention and
frequently applauded.
Prof. Perry has also, within the last few
days, addressed the students of the Beloit
University, and has visited the State Uni
versity at M adison. He reports that free
trade texts boards are used in these cole
ges, and nearly all the Professors are free
traders.
Gen. Brinkerhoff also spoke on the 2Oth
of October, at the State University of
Michigan.

-~Offman-He PROMISES
l est LegIsIatiOn.
ALBANY, Nov. 6.-Governor Hoffman,
last night, in the course of his speech in .
response to serenade by the Jackson
ians," said:
II notice that most of the radics, nsners
in Albany and New York are asking what
will they do with III that is. with tbe
victory. I am hardly disposed to tell them
just yet. prefer to give them a little
lime TO digest The returns, and when these
are fully digested, we propose to give them
some information as to what we will do
with it. In my observations have found
that knowledge suddenly acquired is never
very profitable.
But will tell them in general terms one
or two things we propose to do. We pro.
pose to make the Legislature of the State
OF New York honest; and that is what
they have not done in some time. We
propose to use the legislature for the pur-
pose of promoting the interests of the
mass of the people, and not the interests
of the few-which the radicals have not
done in long time.
The Evening Journal has stated that for
many years there have been a few men in
the Republican legislature who could be
bought. We viii show them that in a
Democratic legislature there will be none
| OF that kind. We propose to give TO the
people of the State of New York. all over.
the right of self government. We propose
to abolish such. laws as infringe upon the
rights of localities and secure to them tbe
| right to govern themselves. We will not
abolish such laws and give the people
something worse, but will give them bet
ter laws. We propose to make the State
of New York, and the government in ali
its branches thoroughly Democratic.
am aware of the responsibilities this
victory imposes. I am aware of the re-
sponsibilities it imposes on me as the Ex-
ecutiye of this State. I realize their mag
nitude, and will not say have no fear of
| them, But by the help of the people and
their representatives, and all the good
counsel can get, hope in my sphere to
SO discharge Its duties that the people will
approve my action.
believe that the legislature which is
about to assemble and legislate upon the
affairs of this great State will act with
such wisdom and discretion as To show TO
the people of the State and country that
the Democracy of this State can be as
moderate in the hour of victory as theV
have been patient in the hour of defeat
We viii be discreet and tolerant. We will
recognize honest men among our adverse
ries; we will deal justly, act honorablv
and promote the great interests of the peO.
i pie of the State of New York, who have
demanded and worked change"

Almost unmterruptedly from 1853 until

Democratic State Ticket receive majority

have said. after years of seeming fruitless
effort, ''lhere is no use in trying to carry
the county for the Democratic party. Il is

ing made any concessions to the for

qualification of seeing his county redeemed.
And A. G. Tucker, ESQ, Rnd his CO.
workers have achieved victory in Van

That which has been done in these coun'

The Next Legislature In West

The Indication are that our recent clas'
sifcation of the next Legislature will have
to be Temoddled somewhat. The Demo
Gratis claim the Senators elect from the
Eighth and Ninth Districts as their repre-
sentative men. If this be true, and we
have no reason 10 doubt it, there will be
six Democrats and SIX liberals in the next
Senate, a constitutional majority. In the
House, also, several members whom We
claimed as ''let upn Republicans are class
ed as Democrats, so that there will proba'
bly, be ct least twenty six Democrats and
it may be twenty eight in that body =
Some of our downcast and dyspeptic Re-
publican friends are even willing to con
cede a clear Democratic majority, but we
have no figures to warrant us IN claiming
it.-[Wheeling Register, -
