Hon. JOIN FENLON.-The cditor of
the JoEnstown Dem0crm has this to say
in vindication of the course pursued in
the last Legislature by his colleague.
Hon. John FenlOn, upon whom the Trj-
Gimc has been opening its batteries OF
abuse without cause and without provo
cation
The Tribune has tried to make it appear,
on more than one occasion, that Hon. John
EcnlOn voted for the Pittsburgh Riot Bill
during the session of the Legislature Of 1879.
The TrjbUue is mistaken. Mr.. FcniOn did
not vote for that bill. There were no more
useful OF careful member of the Legislature
at Harrisburg. lie performed his dut les
with ability, and was q credit to the county.
His knOwlcdoe of the law, his experience as
a member of the House before, and his IA
miIiarity with the wants and interests Of the
people, made him a representative of more
than average usefulness. His efforts at the
session of 1879 in behalf Of the rcTcnchmeHt,
and careful and honest expenditure of the
public moneys were conspicuous, and should,
and no doubt VIII, commend him favOrably
To the thinking people of the county Nj
FenlOn while opposed to many unnecessary
aDpTOpriatiOnS of the money of the State,
which the Republican majority pushed thrO'
always had an amendmentE fastened on to
them, making the receivers of these appTO-
pTiatlOnS furnish to the Auditor lGIUeraIS
office sworn statement how and in what
way they used the money. lie was always
at his post attending to his business, and no
one but the Tribune ever questioned his in
tegTity and fajthfulne5s. In the thorough
investigation of the corrupt practices of the
Republican leaders at Harrisburg, during
1879, no charge of corruption was ever bro't
against Mr. Fcnlou, and nobody ever dIeam-
ed OF doing SO and these innUeudOeS against
Mr.. Ecnl0n only exist in the lively magma
tiOu Of the editor OF the Tribune. The Dem
ocracy of the comfy have confidence i'm their
candidates, and the mUd-thruwing of the Tri-
5lJs against Nj. FeulJn viii only rebound
TO lis credit and increase his already aS>ur-
cd large majority.

suffrages of the people a man who is free

Hancock bows in absolute submission to
the Federal constitution and the laws

pie is to him the mandate of the sover-
eighty of the Republic. His election
will stamp out with undyIng agony the
foulest stain upon our form OF govern
ment and the deadliest blow ever aimed
at free elections in this or any other
country. Gen. Hancock as military
man has shown his due appreciation Of
the superiority of civil liberty over the
despotism of the sword, and appreciating
that doctrine as conservative of our lib

The Case Stated.

The Republican theory of a tariff
is that it should be heavy enough to
shut out all imports which come in
to competition with the products Of
this country, or if not to shut them
out entirely, to give the producer
here the privilege of fixing the max
imum price at which his products
can be sold.
The Democratic theory of tariff
is that it should always be large
enough to furnish the necessary rev.
enue for the expenses Of the Govern
ment, but should in no instance en-
courage or protect monopolists in
practicing extortion upon the masses
of the people,
The Republican theory is in the
interest Of large monied manufactor-
les and other establishments, to en-.
able their owners and proprietors to
enjoy princely incomes at the ex.
pense Of the poor, laboring masses
who consume their products.
The Democratic theory is in the
interest of the laboring millions, who
work fordaily wages, andwhose earn.
ings must go to buy food and rain.
ent for the families, and who really
pay for the protection ofthe wealthy
proprietors, in what they eat and
wear, fs etb5lt- isr
1t was in consequence of the per-
sistent opposition Of the Democratic
party last winter, that the poor
mans luxuries, tea and coffee, are
not now subject to heavy tarifftax.
Secretary Sherman and other Re
publican leaders have repeatedly
urged the taxation Of these articles,
and the Radical newspapers have
heartilyseconded the proposition.
But the poor man does not pay for
protection in many ways that are a
burden to him, but which the rich
do not feel In many articles Of
food which are necessary for his ia.
ble-such as the common articles Of
sugar, pepper, salt, with almost every.
thing on or around his table, is load,
ed with the benefcence of tariff pro
lection, as we'll as the clothing which
covers his back and warns his chill.
