Party Principles and Workingmen.

'The Democratic party is friend of labor and of
the laboring man and pledges itself to protect him
alike against cormorants and the commune.
Tariff for revenue only.-Democratic Platform.
Since 1860 questions of sentiment have
played so important part in political discus
sions that personal interest and advantage
have perforce taken a secondary place in de-
termining the Judgment of intelligent voters.
Although the feeling is still strong that those
who tried to destroy the Union should not
now be entrusted with its administration, and
although the North is not ready to endorse
"those principles for which Lee and jackson
fought" ye! considerations and personal in
terest will have unusual weight this Fall with
large numbers of citizei.s whose vote will 90 to
that party which promises security and stabil-
ity for capital, steady wages and continued
prosperity for labor.
In 1870. almost 100000 persons, or nearly
one-fourth Of our laboring population were
engaged in manufactures, mechanical trades
and mining The statistics of the present cen
sps will. of course exhibit great increase in
these figures. OF this number, nearly two
thirds are employed in manufactures car
ried on under the protective system This
system is subject to legislation by Congress,
and the mechanics and artisans who work un-
der il have, perhaps. more direct interest in
the result of the next election than any other
single class. To them the policy of the Re-
publican party as expounded by General Gar
field means the continuation of good wages
with the consequent blessings of education ana
social comforts beyond those enjoyed by the
workingmen of any other country. What
does the Democratic party promise 10 tue pone
and sinew of the country. IL makes Two
pledges: First. to protect the la0orlng man
AGAINST the danger of the commune and
tha cormorants. literal and metaphor
;callv nresumably-a danger that only
lnrss in the alliterative brain OF the inventor
On the second and important subject Of
WAGES the Democratic party pledges itself to
s'tariff for revenue only" The lower the Gus
toms duty the greater the imports OF foreign
goods into the country; roughly speaking, the
greater the imports the greater the revenue
derived from them. Consequently the Demo
cratic scheme demands reduction OF duties
very much below their present plane ana
consequent increase in importation. 1hls I'M
mense importation of foreign goods must De

longer be found for the full production
of their manufactures, foreign goods hav-
ing supplanted them or they must endeavor

The Meeting Last Night.

''Bill Looney's movement" as the Argus
sneeringly calls it, got headway last night
that will carry it over all obstacles. The
chip drew immensely. The meeting was
great and enthusiastic and the attendance
of Irish American citizens gratifyingly and
unexpectedly large. Mr.. Looney, whose
sound and able address is reported in our
local columns, met with reception at the
hands of his townsmen that he ought to be
proud of. The speeches by Gen. O'Bierne
and Judge Morrison, were effective and elo-
quent presentations of the issues before the
people, and received with great favor. The
meeting was one of the finest of the cam
naion.
The Portland daily press., 1880-09-01

II would be curious should Indiana out
strip Maine this year. We are doing well,
and daily adding to the roll of Republican
recruits. But Hoosierdom is gathering in
converts in old-fashioned camp-meeting
manner. The Southern Indiana Republi-
cans are much encouraged by prominent
converts from the Democracy in New AL
bany. Recently, the Hon. w. C. Depauw,
proprietor of the Depauw American Plate
Glass Work in that city, and his sons. New
land T.. and Charles Depauw, all heretofore
strong Democrats, have openly declared for
Garfield and Arthur and Porter and the Re-
publican State ticket. At the Depauw
American Glass Works a Garfield club, to
be composed of seventy-fve ex-Democrats,
is being organized, of which George +. Penn
will be President, and Mr.. Charles Depauw
Secretary. Penn was lately Democratic
Councilman. Three sons of the late Hon.
John S. Davis, Judge of the Circuit Court,
and noted Democratic politician, have de-
clared for Garfield and Arthur, and also for
Porter. DR.. David G.. Hudson, heretofore
an earnest Democrat and an enterprising
business man, declares for Garfield and Por-
ter. DR.. Elijah Newland, formerly Demo-
cratic Treasurer of State for Indiana and a
lifelong Democrat, is out for Porter and the
Republican State ticket, as well as for Gar
field. The feeling against Landers among
the Democrats in that section is bitter. The
New Albany Ledger-Standard, the leading
Democratic daily in the southern part of the
State, continues to do all it can to secure
his defeat.
The Portland daily press., 1880-09-01

The renewed energy of the Democratic
party is but the spasmodic effort that
Presages death. From this national
struggle il will fall back, a defeated, dis
corsiant and hopeless minority. The hope
or federal patronage gone, its local SUI
Premacies cannot long be maintained.
This is TO be desired, for the way 10 cur
rency reform lies across the grave of the
Democratic party. To enter its ranks is
TO tnkc ITS name. To take its name is to
assume the vindication of its evil past
