OHIO IN THE FOREFRONT.

The Republicans did grandly in Ohio
on the 14th inst. The test vote on the
candidate for Board of Public Works
showed a gain of thirty thousand on that
for Hoadly In 1888, and plurality of
over seventeen thousand. Gen. Robin
son, Notwithstanding the special effort
by the liquor interests to defeat him, had
majority over Newman of 1890; and
best Of all, Judge Johnson, who was vir-
vulently assailed because of his decision
sustaining the Scott law, was elected by
over fifteen Thousand plurality. The
Congressional Republican majority was
over eighteen thousand, notwithstanding
the Republicans have elected certain on
ly ten Congressman out of twenty-one.
Thus the party, while 10 minority
egation, has a majority of over eight
teen thousand of the popular vote. This
gross Injustice must be corrected. Be-
sides, Campbell and Warner were un-
fairly counted in. This we hope to see
corrected also. and when this shall be
done Ohio will have twelve out of the
twenty-ope Congressman. With fair
apportionment, it would have sixteen
out of the tw enty-one. But considering
that the State was gerrymaRderedt to elect
sixteen Democrats out of the twenty-one,
the Republicans scored a great victory
by electing ten by decisive majorities and
two more on fair count. This shows
the sweeping force of the Republican
wave in Ohio. II was irresistible.
Now for November! See to it, Repub-
licans, that you make the majority for
Blaine thirty thousand. Do not suppose,
because you won in October, that No
vember will win itself. Such an expec
tation, if depended upon, would be dis
astrous. Democrats are buried with
their faces upward, and they scratch to
the surface to vote again. Bury them in
November with face downward, and the
more they scratch the further they will
get from the surface. Gin. Com. Gaz.

Cleveland's Picture as Drawn by an
Irishman.

New York Sun.
Among all the orators and writer's who
have tried heir hand at portraying Gro
yer Cleveland, nobody has achieved,
a better likeness with fewer lines
than Mr.. Alexander Sullivan, the
eloquent Irish-American leader. In
a speech at Wheeling last Saturday
night, Mr.. Sullivan thus described the
Democratic candidate for President of
the United States:
Dull, cold, sluggish, ignorant, without
experience as he is without education,
unable to speak with propriety or lire
his own language, or to write it with
grammatical cert ainty; man whose ma
ture is harsh, whose hand is frgid, whose
heart has gone up to the rich and the
powerful, and whose feet have spurned
the claims of the toilers of his own State.
A man whose message to the New York
legislature on the pilots fees distinctly
declares that wages in this country
should be no higher than in foreign
countries. a man whose policy would,
were it in his power to give effect, trans
form your pretty, bright, and cleanly
homes into the foul novels that are the
homes of labor in Manchester and Bris-
tol. and whose keenest political sense has
been directed toward cutivating the ia
vor, for his own advantage, of corpora
tion and monopolies. Get his vetoes
and read them for yourselves. Get the
couple of fiat and pointless speeches he
has made and read them if you can,
without derision. On the sole question
which constitutes the issue of this CAM
paign he has not had the ability or the
courage to speak one word. Either he
knows nothing about it or be does not
dare say what he thinks, lest it should
be turned to his defeat
Only one touch of sapgreen was need>
ed to complete this striking portait; and
that touch Mr.. Sullivan added when he
called Grover Cleveland 1.-The stupid wit
lessness of an accident drawn from OBJ
security by party disaffection.

Classifying Wool.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 22-The Secretary
of the Treasury has received the report
of the special commission appointed to
consider the general question of wool
nnder the new tariff. The question
arose whether EAST India cashmere"
should come into class 2 of the combiDg
wool, and the commission voted to 2 to
place it in class 8, as carpet stock. The
commission decided unanimously to
place "mohair noils" in class 2. instead
of class 8. Upon the general subject of
the classification of wool waste the fol-
lowing resolution was adopted by the
com mission: That all articles of waste
which can be returned to cards and used
over again without any other process
shall be deemed wool; that where either
yarns, tops. rovings. laps or stubbings
are mixed with waste, the whole shall
be excluded from the classification OF
waste: the wool yarn in the form of
hanks or skeins and claimed to be waste,
however imperfect. shall be classified
under the tariff as yai n and not as waste

A TALE OF TEN TRAVELLERS.

Ten weary. footsore travellers
All in woful plight,
Sought shelter at a wayside inn
One dark and stormy night.
Mine beds. no MORE" the landlord said,
Have to offer you.
To each of eight "A single room,
But the ninth must serve for two"
A din arose. The troubled host
Could only scratch his head,
For of those tired men no two
Gould occupy one bed.
The troubled host was soon at ease
He was clever man
And so to please his guests devised
This most ingenious plan:
A B C D E F-G-H 1
In room marked A two men were placed,
The third he lodged in b,
The fourth to c was then assigned,
The fifth retired to ID.
In E the sixth he tucked away,
In T the seventh man,
The eighth and ninth in G and II,
And then to A he ran,
Where the host, as have said,
Had laid two travellers by;
Then taking one-the tenth and last
He lodged him safe in 1.
Nire single rooms-a room for each
Were made to serve for ten;
And this it is that puzzles me
And many wiser men.

uanee and price ofthe work where
by they live are at stake in this
election has naturally become fast
rooted among the working masses
in our manufacturing states, since
the unwise course pursued by the
majority of Democratic members
in the last Congress leyelled a
deadly blow at protected industries.
No sooner, indeed, was it made
clear to Connecticut artisans that
the contest now pending involves
not merely a preference for one
candidate over another, but the
incomparably more mOmentous is
sue Of upholding the emoluments
and safeguards of American labor,
than the shrewder Democratic
managers ceased to count serious
ly upon the adhesion of that state.
Their organs have very little to
say about Connecticut. We be-
lieve, however, that New Jersey,
in which they evince greater
show of confidence. Even four
years ago-in the last month of
Hancock's eanvass-although up
to that time the free trade exhor-
tations of Frank Hurd had fallen
on a Democratic caucus like the
voice of one crying in the wilder
ness, a vague fereboding seized
the workshops of New Jersey, and
the result was that HancOek's
majority was cut down to about
1000. How, then, can any
thoughtful man assign that state
to Cleveland, now that the faint
misgivings of 1880 have been so
grimly justified by the avowed in
tentions and unabashed endeavors
of Mr.. Morrison's coworker in the
House of Representatives?
1t is equally preprosterous to
assume that the mighty manufac-
turing industries which have peo-
pied and enriched SO many inland
towns and cities in the great state
of New York can be for a moment
blinded to the real issue in this
canvass. The skilled workmen of
our factories were never so per-
fectly alive to their fundamental
interests, and nobody can gull
them into committing suicide.
Their votes will never pave the
way for. foreign competition. And
this means that Cleveland will
come down to Harlem Bridge
buried by men who will brook no
tampering with the earnings and
security of American labor, under
an adverse majority so huge that
no efforts, however desperate, in
the cities of New York and Brook
lyn will avail to disinter the corpse.

FULL particulars of the infamous
treatment of Mr.. Blaine at Fort Wayne,
Ind. Monday of last week, show that it
was one of the most dastardly outrages
upon free speech ever perpetrated in the
North. After speaking of Mr.. Blaine's
hearty reception at Fort Wayne, the Gin
cinnati Commercial Gazette's special
says:
1t had been arranged to have him
speak from the balcony of the Aveline
House. The Democrats, after the an>
nouncement, put up a platform immedl :
ateIy opposite, in front of the court
house, and not fifty feet away, as cover
for the intended outrage. Over one
thousand Democrats took possession of
the balcony. under the pretense that they
were awaiting their speakers. and when
Mr. Blaine appeared and endeavered to
speak to the enormous crowd packing
the great square he was greeted with
yells and groans and profane and vulgar
shouts that drowned him out. He paus-
ed and tried again, and again the awful
yelling and hooting drowned him out.
He waited about ten minutes, and at
tempted four times to speak, and after
consultation with the local committee
decided to leave. saying he would go to
another place, and it could be seen to
which party the crowd belonged. He
entered a carriage and was driven to an
open square several blocks away, and
spoke from the carriage to not less than
$4,000 people. Not 1000 remained in
front of the hotel, and this told the whole
story. sta ri f..j t't.u "a

A TRIBUNAL created by the cO-Opera4
tion of the two political parties, declar
ed Mr.. Hayes elected. In fair minds
that should be the end of of the contest.
To go behind that decision was not hon
orable nor manly, and the Democrats
we'll know that in general the election
in the Southern States was too shsdowy
to found any claim upon. But the Dem
ocratic politicians chose to attack that
and have ever since kept up
the cry that they were defrauded Of
their election of Mr.. Tilden. They pu:
this forth as if it atsolved their party
from submitting to any election, and as
if they were justified at least in setting
aside the fair and undisputed election
of Republican President in order t.
get even, as they call it. In general that
party is not too regardful of the rights
of Electors who do not elect the Demo-
cratic party. Tho Democratic House,
tom by lis internal conflicts, but made
still more reckless and desperate by this,
and psrvaded by this spirit of revenge,
makes situation which can not be con-.
templated as the security of peace and
law. To all rational Democratic minds
the State of Ohio II lost to them. They
can not expect any lawful reward for
renewing the effort in this State. But
the existence of Democratic House, as
serting rights to supervise the declara
ton of the vote, which to say the least
is of questionable coustitutionalty, pre-
sents temptation to the reckless and
desperate to raise riot which may give
a pretense for disputiDg the E ectoral
vote of Ohio. The people of Ohio should
make the Republican majority so large
that a party will not venture to dispute
it unless it has resolved upon civil war.

NO TAMPERING
WITH THE EARNINGS OF AMER
ICAN LABOR.
a New York Democratic Paper Tells
Why Cleveland Will Fail in
Every Northern
State.

1t will now be admitted by every
candid and close observer that the
recent election in Ohio turned
chiefly upon the question of pro-
lection verses free trade, that issue
having been projected with pecu-
liar emphasis by the defect of Mr..
Hurd in a district which is wont
to be overwhelmingly Democratic.
No evasion of this primary and
vital point in the controversy be-
tween the two great parties will
henceforth be possible. The great
manufacturing industries, and the
millions of workingmen who de-
pend on them for their livelihood,
are fully awakened to the gravity
of the impending crisis, and can't
be cheated into using the ballot
against their interests. But if the
great mass of artisans have set
their faces against changes which
would inevitably cause an abrupt
dislocation of our industrial system
and a distressing fall of wages, it
will be impossible for Cleveland to
carry single Northern State.
The only Northern States in
which the Democratic party,
weighted with a stolid, gross, and
offensive candidate and discredited
by the aggressive anti-prOhibition-
list attitude of it's majority in Con-
gress, has now any chance at all
Of winning, are, of course, Indiana,
New York, New Jersey, and Con-
necticut. Admitting for the sake
of argument that Cleveland will
gain the solid South, he must, to
be elected, carry the first two or
the last three of the four States
mentioned. Now, there is no rea-
son to suppose that the instinct of
self-preservation will be whit less
operative upon the large manufac-
turing interests of Indiana than it
proved the other day in Ohio; while
in Connecticut, New Jersey, and
New York that instinct must, from
the nature of the case, be more in
tensely stimulated and more de-
cisively potent. In every one of
these three States the industries
that have been fostered and
shielded by the policy of protection
of American labor against crush
ing competition by the greedy
capital and starving proletariat of
Europe, stand for far larger frac-
ton OF the productive energies and
resources of the commonwealth.
Such a change of our fiscal policy
as the friends of Mr.. Morrison
openly favored, though they did
not think it feasible to extort COM
pliance with their full demands
from Congress-such transfer
nation of our tariff as Mr.. Hurd
has been so rudely disciplined by
his constituents for advocating
would grievously disrupt and Grip
pie even states mainly agricultural
like Ohio and Indiana, and would
even there drive tens of thousands
out of employment. But in New
York, where much larger pro-
portion of the population looks
to factories and workshops for its
daily bread, the effect of repeal
of the protective tariff, or of mea-
sures directly tending to the dis
avowal of its principle, would be
vastly more calamitOus, while it
would blast and paralyze states
listinctively manufacturing like
New Jersey and Connecticut.
