slider the best means OF Certifying our
material interests? Certainly no state
feels more neces ity for development
than Texas for the very obvious reason
that she has such abundant resources to
develop.
The HERALD without being an apollo
gist for GOULD or other great capitalists,
would modestly suggest that the war
fare against this class of monetary kings
may be carried too far. We need rail
roads here, ard it is difficult to discern
the ACCESSIBILITY of q wholesale abuse of
such people. They are men like our
selves, and dol't like too much of this
style of vituperation. Hedge them
about with all manner of safeguards,
but by no means drive them from our
borders or forbid their coming. From
an article elsewhere published, in this
issue, it will be seen that JAY GoUI.p
contributed very spsringly to the
BLAINE fund and it is notorious, that he
was the first among his order to con-
graduate CLEVELAND and protest
against revolt against the national
verdict. He was working tor himself.
Let us bon ow wisdom from tho wise and
whilst in the work ordevelopment collect
all the forces we can concentrate in the
great work. The threatened panic in
the north has about spent it's force.
With the Inauguration of an admins
iration that disfavors the locking up Of
treasure, investments will be sought
and with our opportunities for securing
a portion of the liberated fund it would
be idle to wage a pointless war against
those who have its direction and control.

The Chicago Times a very staunch
Democratic paper and one that did
yeoman service in the late presidential
campaign is doing itself injustice and q
great man much wrong when it belittles
and ridicules THOMAS A. HENDRIuKs in
connection with his Brooklyn speech.
The chief criticism of the Times is that
MIR. HENDRICKS spoke too much of Indi-
ana, assigned himself too CONSPICUOUS
part in the political drama. This is
merely personal and is a style of CEN
seriousness that should not be INDUCED.
If there lisa wheel horse of Democracy
in the union it is THOMAS A. HENDRloKs
and If after his hercnlean and sue
cessful efforts to carry Indiana
he cannot be allowed to jubilate
a little, then no Democrat should
DO allowed that privilege. The

THE TARIFF ISSUE IN THE CAM
PAIGN

The interest just at present taken
in the nominations which are to be
made by the National Convention
in Chicago overshadows that con-
corning the platform on which these
candidates are to be placed, and yet
with thinking people, as in previous
campaigns, the platform will be
found as the campaign progresses a
matter of first Importance. The
tariff question is one of the leading
issues, and in its settlements there
is greater real interest than in any
other in American politics to-day.
The real issue is between the English
revenue system on the one hand and
the policy of protective duties on
the other. On this great question
the people have come to recognize
that there is no halfway ground.
There can be but two parties to the
tariff question in this country, one
favoring a tariff laid for the protec-
ton of American labor and industry
with resulting revenue, and the 9TH
er a tariff laid for revenue as it's sole
object, giving only such protection
as may arise from its accidental ad-
iustment. The issue is clear and
distinct one, and the Republican
party has, in harmony with it's pre-
vious history and professions, taken
its stand unequivocally in favor of a
tariff which shall adequately pro-
tect. Whatever may be the plank
adopted, whoever may be selected as
the candidates, the time for decep-
ton on the tariff question is past.
The issue must be a distinct one
during the campaign-protection on
the one hand or free trade on the
other; and the attempt to avoid
it or dodge it will, in the present
temper of the American people, be
a futile one. The Republican par
ty have here nothing to fear.

claiming that the saints should have

or, who always goes over to the en-
envy when he can't have his own
way at home; we are aware that all
these classes are now enlisted under
the Independent flag in New York
and Massachus etts, and we believe
it is useless to waste argument or
appeal upon them. But all "kick-
ers" this year are not of this kind.
There are scores and hundreds of
Just as good men as walk, men who
have never failed to give the Re
publican party a hearty support,
who have cheerfully spent their
money and time to elect its candi-
dates and who have been counted
among the wisest and most trusted
advisers, who now, to say the least,
have not made up their minds to
vote for James G. Blaine. They
are waiting to see what the Demo
cratic convention will bring forth,
to read Mr.. Blaine's letter of accept
ance, to weigh the charges that are
brought against him and the an
swers. In the end we hope and ex-
pect they will be found voting for
him, but it will not help them to
such a conclusion, and it is neither
fair, decent nor prudent to denounce
them as Free-traders, Sore-heads and
Pharisees, because they hesitate.
Men of this class cannot be bull
dozed. They have no favors to ask
of the party for themselves, and
they can't be brought into the ranks
by the crack of anybody's whip.
The way to get them or to keep
them is to show them why honest
men can stay with us and cannot go
anywhere else. We asked one of
the most influential Republicans in
the state recently if he was going to
support Blaine, and he replied
"Well, I don't know as l shall be
allowed to for l didn't believe in
his nomination, and whoever didn't
is being drummed out of camp"
The camp is a large one and it is
pretty full of fighters, but we may
need such men as this ore before
the campaign ends, and it isn't best
to be in hurry about drumming
them out.-MirrOr and Farmer.

THE PRESIDENTS VETO.

President Arthur has shown his
independence of the social and lob
bying influences that have furnished
the pressure for the passage of the
Fitz John Porter bill by vetoing the
bill for his restoration to the army.
This result was not generally ex-
pected, for the surroundings at the
capital have furnished an atmosphere
generally favorable to the bill. The
veto, however, is a welcome result
to the country. Gen. Porter has
been held responsible, by the great
body of public opinion which fur
nished the main moral support of
the war, for one of the disasters
which made the war so long and
costly. His conduct was precisely
what has been visited with death in
similar cases. He had fair trial
before competent tribunal, and it
is as significant as anything could
be that General Garfield, one of the
judges on that tribunal and as fair a
man as the race could produce, new
er found occasion to change his
judgment about the case, although
he was fully informed on it if any
body was, both in principle and de-
tail. Portcr's conduct, harboring

FOR CONGRESS,-W. ". CIRCUIT.

Judge Poland having declined to
again be candidate to represent
this district in Congress, the ques-
ton arises, "who shall be his sue
cessor? ?" The answer is obvious:
The man most available for success,
and the man who is the embodiment
of those principle which best rep
resent the theories of true Republi-
can government. There are many,
undoubtedly, of this class among
the people that are honest and capa-
BILE, any one of whom, if selected,
would be satisfactory, and foremost
among these, we place the name of
Gen. W. w. Grout of Barton. Him
we know to be man of excellent,
rare, and high qualities, eminently
capable of the duties and fitted to
the place. This is shown by his re-
cord while in Congress, where, by
meritorious work, performed in an
unostentatious manner, and sound
Judgment and reasoning powers, he
became a distinguished member.
Upon such a man the choice of the
people will most undoubtedly rest,
and in doing him honor, the people
of the second district will honor
themselves. It was said before
Judge Poland's letter of retirement
was made public, that having served
but one term, it would be only
courtesy" to re-elect him. If there
was any high philosophy in such
reasoning, it holds good now. Gen.
Grout has already served one term,
and Gin decency SO able and useful
a representative ought not to be
slain by silly personal hates and pre-
judices." And he will not. The
people in again presenting his name
as representative to Congress are
satisfied that in actual experience he
has shown higher qualifications for
the position, and more clearly test
ed, than any other name now before
the public, with reference to the
nomination. His nomination would
be very acceptable to the people OF
Essex county, for they believe he
has all the elements that are just
now needed, and that others in diff,
ferent parts of the district have a
like belief, the sentiments of the
press, as shown elsewhere in this
issue, clearly demonstrate. Fol-
Member Of Congress for the second
district let us have Gen. w. W.
Grout of Barton.

FOR CONGRESS,-W ". CIRCUIT.
PRESS OPINIONS.


Below we give a few of the recent
expressions by our contemporaries in
favor of Gen. CIRCUIT as representative
to Congress. We are in accord with
them all.
At this writing Gen. Grout would
seem to have the pole and good lead,
and if he don't "break up" mustcome
in ahead. The General made a good
congressman, and he is o good fellow.

Since the withdrawal of Judge Po-
land we think the Republicans of this
town will be in favor of Gen. Grout
for Congress. He is worker, strong
temperance man, and the district
could go further and fare worse

Notwithstanding the fact that there
are or may be some other aspirants to
the position, we predict for the Gener-
al hearty nomination, basing our
prophecy upon the good sense of the
voters of the second district, who are
not blind to his merits or ability
Valley Sun.
Judge Poland has declined being a
candidate for congress in the second
district and Gen. w. w. circuit will be
a candidate, though Col. Hooker and
Gov. Farnham will oppose him. Gen.
circuit served one term very accepta-
bly,, and there is a general feeling in
the district that he deserves at least
one more term.-Manchester Journal.
OF all the candidates named Gen.
Circuit has the advantage of having
had the experience of one term in con-
gress in which he acquitted himself
honorably. We think he will be the
choice of the convention, and with
him our readers need have no fears
but that the interests Of the state and
country will be looked after with fidel-
ity.-OaledOnian.

best. lie is a clean, honest man, and

The following are some of the press
opinions of General Grout and his
work in congress as given two years
ago:
We count Gen. circuit among the
young men in congress who will make
in time an honorable mark for him
self and his district. An energetic,
upright, honest, vigorous man, Gen.
Grout will make good use of his op-
portunities in congress.-Ratland Her.

that he possesses the qualities which
would have made him a valuable rep

Vermont has had in congress since

many Republican papers, including
one or two in this state, are showing
their love for the cause by fighting

The fact that the opening of the
presidential campaign is marked by
indecent attacks on the characters
of the candidates nominated at Chi
cago four weeks ago, and that the
campaign is evidently TO be made
by the Democracy one of mud
throwing, is nothing which should
in the least discourage the support
ers of Messrs. Blaine and Logan.
Mud-throwing and abuse have been
resorted to before in the history of
the country in presidential cam
paigns; but one thing the Demo
Gratis and their Independent allies
seem to forget, viz, that mere
abuse has never yet defeated a pres
idential candidate, nor have lies and
defamation ever yet proved efficient
and serviceable political weap-
ons.
