TARIFF TOR REVENUE ONLY.

The only question over which fair
political fight can be made is the tariff
The Democrats, true to its conservatism
have relied upon false and hypOcritical
words and measures in their campaigns,
and when they have unfortunately had
power have added to their dishonesty In
cOwardly efforts TO avoid its promises.
Jackson is the only Democrat who tried
to redeem pledges made to voters and he
ruined the business of the country. But
it dses seem that Carlisle is going to en-
force his convictions and permit us to
have a clearly defined conflict on the tar
iff. He is a pronounced free trade Dem
Ocrat and his appointments are made
for free trade. He places on the ways
and means committee Hurd, Hewitt, Her.
bert, Morrison, Blackburn, Mills and
Jones. These men are decidedly free
trade and have all along been DESTROYS
of having free trade to the front. They
want tariff for revenue only. They want
all protection taken out of the tariff.
hVy VohO unV Udlclv w
live and home industries and IabOrers to
die. They want to encourage importa-
ton and fight against home production.
They want matters arranged so that
wool. iron, cotton, sugar, wines, liquors
and other articles can be bought of Eu-
rope, and tea and coffee taxed heavily
although now free. We are glad the is
sue is going to be plain, the fight ear
nest and decisive. Carlisle has pleased us
in his apparent honesty SO far, and we
trust his heart may be satisfied with an
honest, manly fight between protection
and free trade. Business men can no
longer be in doubt, for unless there is a
disgraceful withdrawal, and backdown,
Democracy is solidly arranging to
change the whole business fabric of
America, and spread ruin everywhere.
As protectionists we gladly welcome the
fight.

The Huron county News is clear on its
resume of the salt question. The follow
ing is of interest; "The Michigan man
ufacturers are packing $50 pounds of
salt in barrel that costs them % cents
to manufacture, and selling the amount
for eighty cents. If any one imagines
that all is clear profit that comes from
the manufacture, they make grand mis-
take. The expense of putting down a
well varies with the depth, but the aver
age cost is about $4,000, and there is the
risk of not striking paying brine and of
the well giving out. The expense of
erecting block ranges from $4,000 to
$4,000, according to capacity, and they
do not run themselves. A great many
men are given employment in the man
ufacture of salt, and they receive good
wages"

TIE Detroit Free Press of Jan. LIST, 1884
furnishes at length the history Of that
city's trade for 1883. The items furnish
the fact that manufacturing is on the
increase. 1t is to be noted that while
the trade of 1883 was on a larger scale
than that of 1882 yet the reduction i'm
prices makes the respective amounts
nearly balance. Another feature is the
increase in the grain trade. 1t is by all
odds greater than ever before. The
bankers report shows well. Detroit like
Cincinnati will rapidly transform its
capital into manufacturing industry,
while that of its marine will show re-
duction. The history of our western
cities is unique. Their first effort is in
next jobbing On large scale
then into manufacture. This is the roy
al road to wealth.

MATTERS are desperate in Russia, and
getting worse every day. Discon tent,
rebellion, and revolution are in the air,
and there must be new constitution
wherein Alexander will grant more
liberty, or there must be foreign war
to unite the empire, or there will be a
bloody revolution. Russia can only
fight with Germany, and Germany, aid
ed by Austria and the Balkan States,
would defeat the Gar and end the
ROmanoff monarchy. There will he a
radical change in Russia wherein liber-
ty will advance to the front.

of the Democratic mule is lOOsed of not
few of its dangerous incidents. To
provide suitable fodder for self adjust
ing temper has for years caused no small
alarm to the faithful, and the mule Occa-
sionally has been noticed to kick up the
devil, while its friends insisted on its
gentleness. Its history runs back some
twenty-five years and is valuable con-
tribution in zoology. In the last eight
years memory is not much in cloud for
some interesting oddities. Tilden
grooming the animal, it developed some
admirable traits. 1t was fast settling
down that the Democratic mule was not
an exception in the law of evolution.
This was a sumner on account of the an
finals exceptional genesis. But no soon

siOns than the "critter" showed much

rode the mule successfully but always

perience he had was not comforting. but
with grit never sOured, the Democracy is
relieved for once of caring for an ami

fed plays the deuce. B. f. Butler pro-
poses to ride the Democratic mule in
1884, he may be thrown but he is the on
ly one that can straddle it without

Whatever differences of opinion there
may be on ether incidents, on one all
are agreed, that the Democratic mules

eats everything. Let Butler ride the

THE Detroit Commercial Advertiser
and Michigan Journal, among the many
pleasant things it says of our village
frames this picture: ut is generally
conceded that ChebOygan is destined to
become one of the most prominent,
perhaps the most important port on the
north shore. This belief is practically
evinced by its rapid growth of late and
its population now numbers close on
5000. In the summer season this of
course is greatly increased by hundreds
of visitors who here find delightful
resort and good accommodations in the
five hotels in the city. Some S5,OOO,OOO
feet of lumber is the annual cut of the
SIX saw mills.

BISMARCK is jealous of American com

which were wickedly given to hurt us.
Italy, Spain and Greece followed the ex-
ample of the worthy German, and yet we
are not crippled or materially injured
because all our meats are in demand,
but the affrOnt of Bismarck contains a
violation of international decency with
view to harm us, and the United States
should square the account.

themselves when their time expires.
They propose to make the prison para
