To WorkinGnen,

Has not the Republican party con-
trolled the national administration for
almost twenty-four years
Has it not enacted all the laws dur
ing that time?
Has it not executed the laws by men
of it's choice?
Has this party brought prosperity to
you and your families?
Are you working for good wages all
the time?
Are there no mills closed?
Are wages not cut down?
Do you find living cheap, rents low,
provisions abundant and low-priced
clothing and other supplies down to the
cut in pay?
How many days have you been idle
since last New Years? Can you tell
when work will be abundant, wages
good?
Are business affairs satisfactory to
you"
Did not the Republican party make
business affairs what they are and as
they are?
How much more are your wages to-
day than they were four your years ago,
when this same Republican party
promised you more pay and more work
if you would support its ticket?
Who has, grown richer in the last
four years of Republican policy, you or
the men who were rich then and who
seek to allure you with the same sort of
argument now?-Albany argus.

CLEvELAND's FRIENDS HAPPY.
Advices That Cheer the Hearts of the
Men at Democratic Headquarters
From NY. Herald. Aue. sI.1


Everyone at the headquarters of the
National Democratic Committee yester-
day felt buoyant at the prospec of the
campaign for Cleveland. The advices
from throughout the country give to-
ken that there is a ground swell which
will overwhelm the Republican ticket.
Chairman Barnum, Mr.. B. b. Smalley,
and Senators German, Jonas and Ran
sam were on duty at headquarters for
over five hours and transacted great
amount of business. Among the WIS.,
itors were E. H. Thayer and Congress
man jeremiah Murphy, of Iowa; c. S.
Clark, Jr., New Jersey; G. G. Young,
Brooklyn; Park Commissioner John
d. Grimmins and John Fleming, Dis
trict Attorney of Queens county.
Judge Thayer, in speaking of the
situation in Iowa, said.-"The German
vote of the State'is now a deciding fac
tor, and the prohibition legislation of
the Republican party has brought it to
us. A very small fraction of the Ger
man vote, indeed, will stay Republican.
We will get more than nine-tenths of
it. We expect to carry the State
against the Blaine electors"
Congressman jeremiah Murphy, of
Davenport, Iowa, said :-"The prospect
in Iowa of beating the Blaine ticket is
excellent Cleveland and Hendricks
will poll ninety-five per cent. of the
German vote of the State. That vote
amounts to 10000. Formerly the Re-
publicans got fully 1900 of it. The
German voters that remained with the
Republican party after the last national
election feel that they have been out
ragged by the last Republican legislature
in the passage of the Prohibitory law
with its enormous penalties and the
consequent confiscation of large
amounts of property. There is no de-
fection whatever in the Irish vote"
The State Committee in the Hoffman
House continues to receive the most
favorable reports from all parts of the
State. A letter from town in Clinton
says :-'"This town will give an increas-
ed majority for our ticket"
| A letter from Wayne county says =
"Never have our Democrats shown so
much strength as at present. We Or

bricks club in this town with over two

BLAINE AS A MINE-OWNER.
Screwing His Employees Down to For
ty Cents Per Ton For Mining Coal.
New York World, August %.


l see in my paper of August 9th that
Mr.. Blaine denies having had trouble
with his workingmen in Elk Garden.
Three years ago there was strike for
higher wages, which was for siXty-tive
cents per ton, but we did not get it, al
though other coal companies were pay
ing siXty-five cents per ton to their men
Messrs. Blaine, Davis & Cosstoppai The
demand for rsiXty-ive cents by discharg-
ing good number of their men, and as
there were not many men there at that
time, of course the men not discharged
went to work.
Last winter the company wanted us
miners to dig their coal for forty cents
per ton, and we refused to do it, which
was the cause of several more being dis
charged. 1t is rumored now that if Mr..
Blaine becomes President we miners
will dig coal for forty cents per ton or
less.
Blaine & Co. have opened another
coal vein in what is called Fairfax
stone. The coal is eight feet high and
as hard as iron, with three streaks of
slate in it which varies from half an
inch to ten inches in thickness and is
as hard as steel. The company wanted
their men to work the hard coal for for
ty cents per ton, but we would not, and
all left the place. They put green
hands in and they worked all day hard
for forty cents each and quit. They
said they had to dig more slate than
coal, and they could not earn theil
bread.
think Mr.. Blaine will have to tel
the truth little straighter if he gets in
the White House, but L suppose he
thinks that if he gets to be President he
will make the working class do as he
wants them to OF call the standing army
and make them. L hope he will get
beat, SO we will have some change
made for the working class, for if Mr..
Blaine gets the chair L am afraid we
will see harder times than we ever have
seen in this country before.

CoRRow CANNON HOUSE, !
August 10, 1884. !
MY DEAR MIR. GALLAGHER:-For the
last month | was engaged in almost a
life and death struggle against the enc
my. For the last five years have been
almost single handed fighting the worst
landlords over in Donegal-the land
lords of this union. No coercion act
would reach me, but at last they re-
sorted to new plan to drive me out of
the country if possible. They brought
an action for libel against. me, laid its
venue in Derry, selected twelve Orange
men to try the case, and of course the
result was not moment doubtful. The
judge who tried the case declared that
L had libelled the government, and of
course must be punished. The jury re-
tired, and in two minutes brought in a
verdict against me for e100 and costs,
which will amount to about G400. Thus
they think they have silenced me in frl-
ture. But | am not through with them
yet enough on the subject, as You will
probably see letter from me in the
lrish-American papers in few days.
Let me thank you for'sending me the
Republican and CeH. But tell me-, is it
possible that any number of our coun-
trymen will vote the black Republican
ticket? l cannot believe if possible in
the face of the treatment received by
Irish-Americans abroad during Blaine's
administration, will write public let
ter soon OH the subject, but in the mean
time, you are at full liberty to publish
any letters of mine from "Victoria' IS
dungeon" feel strongly, assure you,
on this subject, and had it not been for
the loss that l have just sustained here
in my fight with the enemy, certainly
would have gone to the states to work
against Blaine and his party, armed
with Lowell's original letter to tell the
story of my imprisonment and Repub-
lican sneers at my appeal for protec-
ton.

See What the Tariff Does.
Chicago Herald.)


With what infinite assurance the
stump speakers who favor the tariff
and cry for more tariff tell us that they
want to "protect American working
men, Look at American working
men in various places where industries
have grown up under the fostering care
of tariff legislation and observe their
condition to-day.
All through Ohio and Pennsylvania
the men employed by protected indus
tries are on a strike. 1t is very singu-
lar that men over whom the Govern
ment exercises such a benignant guard
ianship should be compelled to quit
work by twenty thousands. They do
not strike because they are paid too
much but because they are paid too
little. The idle coal miners and iron
and glass workers are the men whom
the tariff should make prosperous if it
has that effect on anybody outside of
the wealthy employing class, but it SO
happens that they are the people who
are now suffering most. Everybody
else is better off than they are. Some
of them have not had three months
of employment in a year.
