The Republicans want the tariff ques'
ton for agitation AMI panic alone, just
as they used the bloody shirt, the "rebel
claims" and the business busaboo.
The Democrats favor settling it on a
business, a scientific and lasting basis,
making it Interchangeable by political
fluctuations and above the ebb and flow
OF party passion and prejudice. The
different object OF each party indicates
and vindicates the reckless policy of the
one and the wise and patriotic purpose
of the other.

Hon. ERAsTU> CoENING, OF New York,
has been interviewed on the tlrid queS'
ton. He is one OF the largest employ
ers in the country. His business de-
peuds upon q proper policy by Congress
in tariff matters, and this is the way in
which the distinguished gentlemen dis
poses OF the bugabDo:
regard anv attempt to Get up :arih
scare for election purposes as a sham
that ought 10 deceive nobody. IL is too
transparent not 10 be seen through by
men who have not lost their heads, un-
der temporary political excitement.
This apprehension about American
industries did not begin until
some political industries down IN
Maine were interiered with. The APP
prehensiOn will end on November =,
when some other political Industries
will be interiered with, all over the
country. No manufacturer has made
any business arrangements contingent
on the election at all. Whichever man
is elected, orders and work will 90 on all
the same. StumpspeaSers and hys;er;-
cal newspapers have all the excitement
TO themselves. In the mills and facto-
ries, apparently, the only excitement is
that OF increasing work and en!arging
transactions. The very men who en-
courage the politicians to get up tariff
scare
LAUGH AT THEM As DUPEs OR DENAGoGUEs.
1t is device that casts no credit on
the wisdom or scruples Of those who use
it or on the sense OF those misled by il.
For the matter of that, think they are
fooled by it. Certainly those who get II
up are not. They themselves perceive
that prosperity has increased since the
preliminary elections indicated proba-
BILE change Of parties. To invent an
alarm not meant for or, at least, not
shared by business men at all, but de-
signed only for effect on outsiders and
to pad out speeches and articles, is as
reckless as anything in politics and as
foolish as anything in comedy. 1t is like
the scheme practical lockers devise TO
worry q sensitive man out of good
health into belief that he is sick, bv
having everybody wonder why he looks

Col. HENRY McCORMICE, an extensive

HINTS TO WORKINGMEN.
Garfield's Record on the Bill to
Restrict Chinese Immigration
How John Chinaman Is
Crowding Out the American

WOrkingmen.
Chinese immigration into this coun-
try was promoted and protected by the
Burlingame Treaty, conceived AMI per-
iected by a Republican administration
in 1858.
Immediately after the ratification OF
that treaty the entire labor system oil
California was revolutionized by a sys-
tenn OF peonage organized by the SIX
Companies OF California, with view oil
specializing in the cheap labor OF Chi
nese immigrants.
In 1879 Democratic Congress passed
bill To restrict this immigration.
General GARFIELD, then in the House
OF Representatives, voted against this
bill.
Rutherford L. Hayes vetoed that bill.
General Garfield voted TO sustain the
veto. and the bill failed TO receive the
constitutional two-thirls vote by Re
publican OPposllIoH.
Owing to this unrestricted right OF
immigration the labor system OF the
Eastern States is threatened rs was that
OF California.
The establishment OF Chinese laun-
dries in the city OF New York (where
they are to be found on every second
or third block, has proved such a pay
ing speculation to the company OF capt.
talists by which they were started, that
other companies are now organizing Tor
the establishment OF Chinese barber
shops; small tailor stores, shoe and
cobb!ers' stalls on street corners, cigar
shops and other enterprises OF a like
character.
The capitalists hare come 10 the con.
c,usion, based on the profits realized
from the Chinese laundry business, that
there are millions of dollars TO be de-
rived from this new field oil enterprise.
We NAV, therefore, expect 10 see Chi
nos. labor introduced into the New
| EiEliDu u!tl!NldClCiNs, ana ShiuN -
stores spread all over the city OF New
| York, from which it is the intention TO
extend them 20 Philadelphia, Boston,
/ l. .ltimOrr, Cincinnati, Chici.o, Pater-
son, Bridgeport, Pittsbu'gl and other
/ large cities
\ move has already been made in
| th's direction. A large Chinese tea
/ sore is now under full headway at $40
| Tnird avenue, near Thirty-ninth street,
| in New York city, under the manage
ment OF a Chinaman named kwon Yet
Long. The Chinese are an enterprlsing
race noted for their shrewdness in trade,
Guickness NJ a bargain, and their ability
10 hold their own against the sharpest
| business people in the world, and great
hopes are ent.rtained Tor their enter
! prises.
The interests OF miners are also men,
aced. Already in many Colorado mines.
| Chinese labor has supplanted that OF
American workingmen, and the same
result is imminent in the mines CT the
East.
This is directly traceable TO the unre.
stricted Chinese immigration brought
| about by Republican legislation, and for
which General Garfield is greatly re-
saonsible.
Will the workingmen OF America en-
courage this movement and promote
their own ruin by voting for Garfield"

DEMOCRACY AND BUSINESS.

Financial ruin stalked abroad In the
land during full decade of Republican
rule, and prosperity began after DEM
ocratic Congress came into power.
The cry comes with very bad grace,
therefore, from the Republican party,
that any of our industries will suffer by
the success OF the Democrats The
charge is not borne out by the record oil
the two parties.
OF the two parties, the Democratic
has always been the more conservative
on economic as well as on constitutional
questions. The Democracy is naturally
n conservative party, and lis whole his
tory bears on. this assertion.
Besides the Democratic party Is lead
hv the most prominent business men OF
the country, and its nominees are mer
whose character and experience are a
guarantee OF the welfare OF the business
interests ofthe country.
Mr.. BARNru, the Chairman OF the
National Democratic Committee, is an
extensive iron manufacturer. A man
OF large business experience and bust
ness interests, AMI i; is not likely that
in his enleavo-s TO further the interests
o. the Democratic party, he is plotting
against the business interests OF the
country.
Hon. ABRAM 5. HEWITT, the member
OF the Democratic Committee from New
York, is one OF the most distinguished
and intelligent iron merchants in the
world, with immense interests OF this
kind rnder his control.
Mr.. SCOTT is the member from the
great manufacturing State Of Pennsyi-
wanna, and one OF the shrewdest, most
successful AMI enterprisins business
men OF the State.
So il We look for a moment at the can
d.dates who are put forward to repre-
sent these business interests about
which so much solicitude is expressed,
We will find them quite as sale, able and
intel :en. in those matters OF which
the commercial stability rests, as the
candidates OF the Republican party.
General HANCOCK was educated al
West Point and his whole lie has been
devoted to large business and govern,
mental atTlirs connected with the army
AMI the civil government. Ills duties
have involved the burdens OF large and
and valuable interest All male him
familiar with the details CT business in
many .orms. While il is admitted by
GARFIELD's friends that he is especially
lacking in knowledge and practical adap'
tation 10 business affairs.
The candidates for the vice-presidency
present an equally favorable compari,
son from q Democratic standpoint
ARruUE, the Republican candidate, is q
lawyer and a politician, and in the only
public business OF which he has been
entrusted. that % collector OF the port
of New York, he WIS discharged 10y
Secretary SHERMAN on the plea that his
Office was not conducted in 4 business
like manner
The Democratic nominee, Mr.. Eng
IlsH, is q man whose life has been dcvo
tel TO practical business affairs, an!
whose success is the best evidence Ol
his business capacity.
These are men who are most promi-
nent in the ranks OF the Democratic
party, and yet the Republicans would
have the country believe that the party
is lead and made up oil irresponsible
men who have no interest in the busi-

THE wealthy iron manufacturers, the

productions by high tariff upon for
