CONGRESSMAN FRANK HIscooK has been re-
nominated for his fifth term from the Twenty.
fifth New York district.
THE Catholic Herald: Free trade means
the opening up of a new country of fifty mill
ions to the rayages of Europe"
PHILADELPHIA Press: The Carl Sehurz
who is helping to defeat Cleveland by support
ing him this year, is the same Schurz who helped
to defeat Greeley by the same tactics in 1872.
THE Massachusetts Republicans have worked
and left the boilers to do the Dragging, and the
result begins to appear already. The party or
ganization is in a condition especially effective,
and an old-time Republican majority is expected.
NEW FORK Sun: If there should be any
scarcity of money to pay Mr.. Sehurz, we suggest
that Mr.. Cleveland might put up part of that he
made by himself hanging the two men in Buffalo.
That would be q very appropriate use to make OF
NATIONAL Republican: Mr.. A. Drondinger, of
the Pension Bureau, who has been seriously i'll
from the effects of a congestive chill, is now
slowly but surely recovering, and hopes to be
we'll enough in time to help the boys in Indiana
before the campaign closes.
THE Boston Pilot, while it opposes Mr.. Blaine
says: ''The man who could fling a stone that
must strike not only him that it was aimed at
but the hearts Of his wife and children is a mis-
creant. The relations of Mr.. Blaine to his fami-
ly have been true and beautiful
New YORK Commercial Advertiser: Five
years ago, when Mr.. Mulligan had not been ap-
preached by the seductive Barnum and other
Democratic managers, he held that Mr.. Blaine
was not a man to be brtbed or corrupted in any
way. But how does Mulligan withstand temp
tation2
DETROIT Times: The New York Independent
is hot to have both Blaine and Cleveland with
draw; and failing that, it would have all good
citizens vote for st. John. We are glad that the
Independent is settled at last, for we had
been fearing that swinging on a barbed wire
fence would prove painful even to a religious
journal.
BosToN Journal: Mr.. Blaine's candid wish
that every voter in the country would read all
the Mulligan letters, will be echoed by his
friends. Mr.. Blaine's enemies dress the letters
up with dslusive headlines and distort them by
their malignant constructions, but an intelli
gent business man has only to read all the let
tiers through and compare them with the accuse
sations made against Mr. Blaine to be convinced
of the injustice which has been done to him.
THE Hartford Courant, in reply to the charge
that it had suppressed the new batch Of Fisher
letters, shows that as a matter of fact the letters
were not given to the Associated Press or the
Republican newspapers, but were carefully KENT
as a sweet morsel for the independent and Dem
ocratic newspapers. TIL first that Republican
newspapers knew of the new sensation was
through the arrival Of their favored contempo-
raries, laden with stunning headlines and SOL
emn comments on Mr.. Blaine's terrible EXPO
sure
GEORGE MoERLEIN, q Cincinnati brewer,
states the case thus: THE brewing interest is
dependent for its support on the great mass Of
working people: If theyare prosperous, so are we.
Beer is the peoples beverage. With protective
tariff they are prosperous. The Republican
party is the protective tariff party and for that
reason our interest lies with them. We could
stand the putting of beer on the free list, but not
the general distress that would follow free
trade.r 1t was also found that the liquor sellers
are dividing up on similar old party lines.
BURLINGTON Hawkeye: Belva Lockwood is
running for President on the Woman's National
Equal Rights ticket-there is a postscript to
the name Of that party, but we forget what it is
-Belva is running for President, but she doesn't
tap any barrel, and don't you forget it. She
says if she is elected she will open a paper bag
of marsh mallows and a box Of caramels. but
she isn't going to pay for a campaign in advance.
Bustle around, girls, and hoop things up if YOU
want a caramel. Belva is going to fight it out
on this crinoline If it takes all the rick-rack IN
America.
