WILD ABOUT CLEVELAND.
All England Anxiously Hoping for his
Election and Free Trade.

All England Anxiously Hoping for his
Election and Free Trade.
The following is taken from the Reg
lister, of IrontOn, Ohio, where large iron
manufacturing interest Is conferred. Mr..
Thomas Johns, who used to command
the rolls in the iron and steel mills, re
turned from England recently, and the
Register reporter had an interview with
him. He left here on the Goth of June
and reached Liverpool August 5; and
from there he went to South Wales,
where he remained a month, spending
the most of his time at Ebervale.
"HOw did you find the iron outlook
over therep" asked the reporter.
"Well, sir, found it fearfully depress-
ed. The iron mills are nearly all silent,
though the steel mills are jogging away.
When left. the Ebervale steel rail mill
had been idle nine days and hadn't an
order on its books"
what about steel rails?"
"Oh, they are lower than iron rails. A
manufacturer told me that he could sell
steel rails for $3.50 at a slight profit,
while iron rails would cost $24.20."
what is the feeling of the iron makers
there as to the outlook" we asked.
HARD TIMES IN ENGLAND.
Decidedly blue. They told me that
they had exhausted everything in Aus
tralia and India. These countries are
pumped dry. and their salvation Is now
in getting free trade with the United
States. They told me they expected to
get foothold in America when Cleve-
land was elected, and so they are all
Cleveland men, and tried to convince
me that free trade was the thing for the
United States"
Were you convinced by their argu-
mentsp"
ENGLAND SOLID FOR CLEVELAND.
mel Well, not much. You see they
are all wild for Cleveland all through
England, for they really expect to see
him elected and thus get hold of the
American market. Now have worked
in both countries and been doing some
visiting since and good deal of looking
on, and / know that American labor
would be sadly damaged by free trade"
what about the wages over therep"
sThsrs it is, you see. They pay about
a shilling GA cents where we pay dol
lar, and the decrease has been going on
for twenty years. left there twenty

POLITICAL NOTES.

Reports from Ohio show continued de :
fections from the Democracy to the Re-
publicans.
Mr.. Blaine expresses the hope that
every Republican paper in the country
will publish tho Mulligan-Fishsr letters
in full. 's''5
With Hendricks apologizing for the
head of the ticket and Ben Butler slash
ing at the platform. Democrats are hay
ing q serious time. sq,-af So, .fgg
The regular Republican and Indepen-
dent Protection Democrats of Louisiana
have agreed to unite upon Blaine and
Logan electoral ticket. h Eg
It is a notable fact of the election in
Maine that in every town and precinct
where there was large Irish vote the
Republican majority was largely in
creased. i4
The change in the ownership Of the
Chronicle Herald leaves the Democra tic
party in Philadelphia with ne accredited
daily organ printed in English. s'
Catholic Review: Irishmen have
wrongs to right in Ireland and England,
but nowhere are they subjected to re-
ligi0us persecution such as that which
has been continued in existence by Gov
ern0r Cleveland.
Democrats have about exhausted the
regular vocabulary, and are beginning
to resort to cuss words to express their dis
gust at Blaine for not voting as they
wanted him to in Maine.
81 am poor man, but think more of
my family than riches. l am q Demo-
erat, put love my country more than
party" So writes a correspondent of a
New York paper, and adds, II shall not
vote for Cleveland on account of his
shamelessness, and his defiance of moral
sentiment and virtuous action"
Arkansas always goes Democratic.
One OF the causes leading to this effect
may be based upon the fact that personal
property assessed for taxation included
guns and pistols alued at $34,104, and
farm implements" valued at just 1924

years ago, and the reduction of wages
has been 30 per cent In that time"
what about the prices of living?"
Low WAGES AND HIGH EXPENSES.
"Very little different. You can live
on the same money here that you can
there-and better, too. Over there you
pay 30 cents a pound for the best cuts of
beef and % cents for ham; flour, coffee,
and tea the same as here. Clothing is
about the same as here. l stepped into
store at Liverpool and bought plain
Dercale shirt which cost nae $1O7; a pair
of merino socks, 48 cents; "a pair of cuffs,
30 cents; a common merinO undershirt,
$1.32. An ordinary suit of blue cloth
costs $2l to $22. have bought all these
things right here in Ironton, paying
about the same price. know it costs
just as much for living over there as
here, taking everything into account"
what about pig iron?"
HOW FREE TRADE WOULD REDUCE WAGES.
THAT Is very dull at about $40 u ton.
They get all their ore from Spain and
Africa. One thing that is telling on
England is the Belgium trade. Though
England can make steel rails at $3.50,
Belgium ships her rails there and I'M

would have to buck against Belgium too.
Now, what chance would furnaceman
in the United States have to sell his pig
