The re. election of Congressman
Reed in Maine last Monday has start
ed discussion already as to the pro-
priely of making him the Republic
can candidate for speaker of the next
House Of Representatives. Mr.. His
cock, of New York, and Mr.. McKin-
ley, of Ohio, will doubtless be candi-
dates for the same position if they
are elected to the next Congress,
1t will take the Democrats about
two weeks to get over the news from
Maine then they will get into fight
ing shape again and make themselves
think they are going to win. This
feeling will last until the Ohio cleo
ton in October, after which they be-
gin to feel like announcing another
four years' pOstponement of their
great triumph.-H. Louis Globe. DEM

"Gath," of the Cincinnati Enquirer
(Dem.), expresses the opinion that
New York would beat CIeyeland in
November if Ohio goes Republican
in October, and adds that "Republi-
can majority IN New York state

remarkable accessiOns from the Irish.

from the moral classes generally,

Political Gossip.

The man who wrote the Demo-
cratic platform is said to be at work
on new style of bicycle. which will
run in seventeen directions at once
Philadelphia Call.
The Republican majority in Maine
has grown to such proportions that
the Democratic editors have been
compelled to abandon all attempts
to explain it, and they have begun
with one accord to shout "fraud."
The Indiana Democracy find it
hard work to come up enthusiastic
cally to the support of Isaac P. Gray.
their candidate for Governor, since it
has been discovered that he is not
only member, but also chief, of a
KnOw-nothing lodge.
The Massachusetts Republicans
have worked and left the boilers to
do the Dragging, and the result be-
gins to appear already. The party
organization is in condition especi-
ally effective, and an old time Re-
publican majority is expected.
General Cassius M. Clay, of Ken
lucky. is making some of the most
effective campaign speeches now be-
ing delivered in Ohio. His familiar.
ity with the methods of the Southern
Bourbons enables him to give testi-
mony which cannot he refuted.
AT a large meeting of the German
Blaine and Logan club, of Spring

of the speakers remarked that the
great number of Germans present
was practical refutations of the re-

Germans in that state have deserted

full answer to Mr.. Blaine's calumni-

Free Trade versus Protection.

A Nation should always protect its
people against anything that tends to
repress or interfere with its manufac
lures. When these flourish, the eff.
fects of their prosperity extends to
every portion of its population, pos
sibly excepting those alone whose
support comes from their investment
IN government bonds. All the bread
winners of the land are bound togeth-
er by an indissOluhle bond. The
prosperity of one class of these is the
prosperity of the whole. Free Trade
introduces a competition, which
gives the advantage to the products
OF those people, whose laborers and
artlhcers are kept on starvation
wages. and its tendency is necessari-
~ to bring about like result where
ever it stocks the market and sup.
presses a healthy growth of manu-.
features. Hence it is, that the Re-
publican party has declared for the
support of American industries by
bringing the productions of foreign
Doorly-paid labor into fair COMPETE
ton with our own better paid labor
through forcing the former to pay
duties which shall contribute to the
support Of the machinery of Govern
ment.

Views Of a Butler Manager

Colonel PlymDton, of Massachu
sets, one Of the managers ofthe But
Ter campaign, says that everywhere
he has been, the political outlook was
good for Blaine's election. Fusion
would undoubtedly carry Michigan.
While Buffers party were in that
State they saw the leaders of the La
Dor and Greenback parties and all
reports were favorable to the Repub-
licans. Colonel PIymptOn said Blaine
would carry his State by plurality
of perhaps 10000. The independent
vote would hardly go over $4,000.
Butler would get at least nine-tenths
of the Democratic vote.-Phii. Press.

a paragraph summoning up his own
views:
GAS business man having some

for forty years, present platforms, and
the declarations of their nominees in
their letters of acceptance, be most
critically examined by every voter,

amination,t that the party under whose

great prosperous will still he their

The New YORK Sun (Dem.) OF
Monday says:
1t is now tolerably clear that there
is mo chance of Grover Cleveland's
election to the Presidency. He can
not carry New York. He will be
beaten in this State by a majority OF
not less than fifty thousand, in spite
ofevery exertion that may be made
between now and election day.
Why, then, should genuine Demo
Gratis any longer think oftying them
selves up to such hopeless candida
cy? 1t was mistake fiOm the first.

nomination at Chicago that they
were engaged in an enterprise which
was doomed to disaster F.; and this
doom is now so plainly apparent that
only the blind can fail tn see it.
