they can cram any sort of stuff down
their threats.
The last number of the Democrat
says "for four years the Democracy
have had control of both Houses Of
Congress-" Here 1t Is as far frem
the truth as it generally is, as they
achieved" the Senate only last
March a year, and instead of doing
anything to make times better they
did all they could to destroy conf
dence and hinder resumption. About
the only legislation they considered
worthy of them was an effort to re.
peal the laws to prevent fraudulent
voting.
If their efforts to repeal the re-
sumption act and to flood the coun'
try with irredeemable paper curren-
cy and IS per cent. silver did any
thing to promote good times, then
they are entitled to the credit of it.
But before closing 1 must notice
briefly an illusion made by the Dem
0crdt some weeks age to "Ryan's
Glades," wherein it says it has the
'proof, and will furnish interesting
reading in the local campaign next
year." or something to that effect.
"Ryan's Glades" asks no favors OF
tho Democrat, only to kindly confine
itself to the truth.
We see what has been the sad fate
of loyal men in tho Southern States,
States, even when prott ct ed by the
National authority, and if by the
election of Hancock that protection
be withdrawn, the Democrat hopes,
perhaps, to extend the dominion of
the Democracy by introducing pure
ly Democratic methods here. Are
its reflections on the loyal met of
Ryan's Glades to be Interpreted as a
threat to introduce the M ississippi
plan after the country shall have
been delivered to Southern rebels
and Northern copperheads?
Next Tuesday the mud singers
and traders in calumny will be in
vited to step to the rear. They have
been tried, and the country will get
along awhile without them. In the
memorable language of Zach Chand-
Ter, 'me'ae, meme, teket upharsip is

A Ruinous Democratic Policy.

Hon. ID. j. Merrell, the head of the
Cambria from Company, at Johns
town, Pa, has addressed letter OH
the tariff question to the Philadel-
phla Times, in which he speaks of
David A. Wells, the author of the
free trade plank of the Democratic
platform, as the Benedict Arnold of
American industrial history, and
says thai "this chronic threat and
insult of American w0rkingmen,
which is common to all Democratic
and Confederate platforms, has been
repeated once too often, as the recent
elections in Indiana and ohio have
clearly shown, and as the course of
the canyass in Pennsylvania, New
York, New Jersey, Connecticut, and
all industrial States makes constantly
more evident.
The workingmen and business
men are getting from under the dead
fall of the Democratic platform, and
and defeat stares the party in the
face. Hence the sudden zeal for pro-
t. elton and the Eaton Commission
bill. Hence the laundering letters
on the tariff by General Hancock,
who first swallowed his party plat
form whole-"a tariff for re venue
only" and all then regards the tariff
as "a local question with which the
general government seldom inter-
feres :" and finally announces him.
self as in favor of tariff for inciden-
tai protection. Hence the senseless
assaults upon Gen. Garfield's tariff
record, and the fraudulent claim that
Hancock is a better tariff man than
Garfield Just as once before the PEG.
pie were told that Polk was better
tariff man than Clay. This is stale
swindle, and will not win.
Mr.. Morrell adds that at his own
works he has posted the platforms of
the two parties. and finds that moth
ing more than this silent argument is
sufficient to convince the Employees as
to how they should vote.

INQUIRING VOTER.

What is the difference between a
tariff for revenue and tariff for pro-
lection? The workingman, who has
a tremendous interest in this ques-
ton, should not allow himself to be
cheated by Democratic prelences that
there is no difference. A tariff for
revenue means tax on articles
which are net produced in this coun-
try. as tea and coffee. A tariff for
protection means a tax on articles
which come into competition with
American manufactures. The former
means the destl uction of American
manufactures the latter means their
perpstuatioa. When Hancock talks
about tariff for revenue only being
incidentally protective" he talks
nonsense.

shown his want of training in state
matters; The administration Of an
independent Republican, President
Hayes, had brought this country to

RYAN'S GLADES, Oct. 18th, 1880.
ED. REPUBLICAN,. Dear Sir -
For the last two or three weeks my
time has been so completely occupied
by private affairs and in rejoicing
over the victories in Indiana and
Ohio that l have had no time to re-
port the condition of things in this,
the banner Republican district Of
Garrett. Garfield stock is booming
and the Hancock boom is fiat, very
fiat. Somebody has called the at
tention of the Democrat to my last
letter in THE REPUBLICAN, and it is
feeling badly about it. l can assure
the Democrat it is not alone in it's
newborn grief. l have been there
and know how to sympathize with
it. have not read leading article
In its columns since the campaign
opened, but. to quote its own digni-
fed language, l have felt that the
writer was either fool or imagined
himself addressing an audience OF
idiots" 1t is highly gratifying to
note the result of the campaign of
mud.slinging and lies in Indiana and
Ohio. But the Democrats had no
principles to defend and the only
thing they could do was to organize
a campaign of vitnDeration and
Islander and all honest men are re-
joiced at the answer given in tho late
elections. There is not bright spot
in the Democratic record for the last
twenty-five yoars-not page in its
history but is black with crimes and
treachery and political blunders. 1t
never appeals to the better impulses
of human nature, but to their baser
passions and prejudices. They do
not believe in the honesty or the in
telligencs Of the people, but imagine

parts of Italy people are reduced to the
verge of starvation by the failure of the
crops and their inability to obtain the

WHAT has become of Montgomery

his voice, uplifted for fraud and Tilden,
has been heard. Is anything the matter
with that busy jaw? A story used to be
told Of a venerable grandam of New Jer-
sey, whose lower jaw had a curious habit
of slipping out of joint while she was in
full conversation. As she was deaf, she
never discovered the disarrangement,b but
went on with the motions of talking,
though no sound issued forth. The other
members of the family during their move
ments back and forth in the room where
the old lady sat, used to put forth help
ing hand as they passed by, and lift the
jaw back to its place when the CONVERSE
ton would once mere become audible.
This performance. repeated at intervals a
dozen times a day, used to be witnessed
with mingled emotions by the casual visi-
tor, but it had become such habit in the
household that it was always gone through
with the most matter-of-fact way. Per-
