The editor of the Register asks this
silly question;
why should we vote for an orgnnna-
ton that is to-day trying to reduce the
prices Of labor by importing from the mill
ions of China, hundreds Of thousands of
the worst class OF that people TO take the
places Of the hard working and even poor
ly paid laborers of OuI own country"
In the first place, brother Gould you
shouldn't do it; and in the next place no
such political organization exists in the
United tate,. There was but few years
since, a political party in this country call
ed the Democratic party, which did favor
the stealing and importation of a certain
class of foreigners. to this country and ma
king slaves OF them and their posterity for
life, for the very purpose of degrading and
reducing the price of the labor of the poor
honest working men of this country--but
that nefarious business was stopped by
the proclamation of that good president
LINCOLN, and n certain amendment to our
national law which every Democrat voted
against. You remember the circumstance,
brother Gould, don't you?
Now sir, it is mot the policy of the Re
publican party to import population or Ia
borers from China or any other county to
this. But as we old Wings used to say in
Harrison times, our latch string hangs out,
md thepeople from all nations and coun-
tries arc at liberty to come to this asylum
for the oppressed, and so long as they con
form to the wholesome laws of our State
and Nation, it is the policy of the Repub-
lican Party to let them come and enjoy
the blessings of liberty and union with us.
But brother Could they must not rebei
and try to destroy the government, or
Republican President will readily find
authority in the constitution and laws of
the u. States to ooeroo them into submls-
sion. Times are not now, brother Gould,
like they were under the Democratic rul-
ing OF that old Democratic Apostle, james
Buchanan.

CONGRESSIONAL JOKE.

The following proceedings of Il Q lower
House of Congress, are published in the
Congressional Globe of February 70, $50,
page 1892. Mr.. Sphinx, delegate from the
territory of Dakota, is evidently something
of wag and it is not unlikely that Gen
eral Schenck. who also is fond of joke,
was accessory before the fact We quote
as follows;
TARIFF.
Mr.. Sphinx (Republican) submitted the
following resolution, upon which he called
the previous question:
ResolDed, Tint the interests of the coun-
try require such tariff for revenue upon
foreign imports, as win afford incidental
protection to domestic manufactures; and
rs will, without impAiring the revenue,
impose the lowest burden upon, and best
promote and encourage the great indus
trial interests Of the country,
Mr.. Wood Democrat, N. " l move
that heresolution be laid on the table.
The motion was not agreed to-.
The question required upon adopting
the resolution,
Mr.. Schenck. Upon that question call
for the yeas and nays.
The yeas and nays were ordered
The question was taken, and it was de-
cided in the atiirmntive-yeas, 1903; nays
A. Not voting, G6.
The vote given in the Globe, on the call
for the ayes and nays, stood ayes, lOl Re-
publicans and s Democratsi nays, ID Re-
pubicans and 80 Democrats. Mr.. Axtell,
Of California, who has been speech max
ing for Gen, Denver in this County, voting
NO.
The joke of the matter consists in the
fact, that the resolution is substantially the
last clause Of the sixth section Of the plat.
form adopted by the National Democratic
Convention, held in New York City, July,
1863
The Democracy are so progressive, that
they cannot advocate the same set Of prin
ciples at two Congressional elections IN
succession. If they advocate free trade
at this election, it is no evidence that they
will not advocate monstrous high tariff
at the next. If they advocate the pay
ment of our public debt in greenbacks
one year, it is no evidence that they will
not advocate reputation the next year. We
can remember when they denounced green
backs, and declared that as soon as the war
was over, they would be as worthless as
the old Continental notes; and about the
next thing we heard from them on the
greenback question was, they wanted to
sue several thousand millions Of tn Sc
promises to pay, which they had damned
million times, all over the Republic, to
pay off the creditors Of the government
which they tried to destroy by sympathiz-
ing with the Southern Confederacy. 1t
was not strange that they wanted to pay
the Union war debt with currency they
tried to depreciate, because that would
ruin the credit of our government, just the
thing they desired to do,
