oHEAPENED by TARIFP.

'Steel rails in England and the United
States have never been so cheap as at present.
They have touched point lower than the
panic prices of 1878, when Mr. Vanderbilt
operated to bring about revival in the trade
on both sides of the Atlantic. &C Chicago
News.
Strange how manufactured iron and steel
persist in growing cheaper in defiance Of the
''robber tariff The application Of the tariff
operates in exactly the manner predicted and
intended by the Republican party. It has
so encouraged manufactures in America that
British firms have been compelled to cut
prices to get any trade in the outside world.
These have been met in turn by our own
establishments, and now 'tsteel rails have
never been so cheap as at present. Gould
the same have been said had America con-
sented to let British mills do all the business2
The Pail Mall Gazette says the biggest steel
ring ever known is now organized in
England. Belgium, Germany and Austria.
Its manipulators would have fixed prices to
suit themselves had there been no steel mills
encouraged and developed in America The
'robber tariff has done more to reduce the
price of manufactured articles, while at the
same time affording employment for home
laborers, than all other legislation combined.

all the tide of falsehood that set in against
them, SO will James G. Blaine overcome and
put under foot the malicious calumnies now
in circulation. Mr., Blaine will not be
alone in this campaign. Millions
of patriotic voters, who are not OF
the belief that it is impossible for an Ameri-
can to become noted and great without being
rascal, will rally to the support Of this
representative American, glad to attest their
faith in his honor, and to administer fitting
rebuke to those with no sense of national
pride and none of the instincts of political
decency. Let the young men of this country
be honest enough with themselves to investi-
gate this question, each for himself
Let them know that the course now pursued
against the Republican nominees is exactly
the same that has been Systematically and I'M
relentingly followed during the past quarter OF
a century And further, let them understand
that the two great parties are essentially the
same in composition that they have
been since the days of 1860. James
G. Blaine, the Republican nominee for
the presidency is the same James g. Blaine
who has fought his way up from the ranks,
always on the right side, and always maligned
and hated by the enemies of the country.
John A. Logan, the Republican nominee for
the second place of honor, is the same John
A. Logan who, in 1861, shouldered a musket
in defense Of the Union, and who made his
name famous in all parts of the world as one
of the bravest and best volunteer generals that
ever led men into battle. Their characters
are already above calumny and their fame is
assured

investigation, and upon their conscience, de-
liberately testified their disbelief of all the
charges of fraud and their contempt for the
tide of utilization and Islander that poured in
upon the Republican party and its nominee.
And now, in 1884, with the hunger and low
instincts of hyena, the Democratic party
returns to its unfinished feast, and once more
"arraigns' the Republican party and opens its
gates of SANDER upon its candidates.
1t is hardly possible that the American
sense of honor and of fair play has descended
low enough to indorse and become party to
such infamous methods, so contemplate as to
provoke the wonder how any self-respecting
man can consent to tolerate them.
1t is no new thing for the Republican party
to be t'aIraigned" and denounced" by the
opposition. Were it otherwise, there would
be good ground for the belief that the admin
istration were not doing its duty. The
Democratic party has always been in
the wrong. When not fagrantly dis
loyal, the Democratic party of the North has
been hypocritically patronizing to the loyal
element When not aggressively hostile to-
ward good legislation, it has been criminally
imbecile. Its condemnation has been the
greatest praise it could bestow, and the Re
publican party has even felt treasured when
duly and formally ffarraigned" by it.
The campaign nearest analogous to this was
that Of 1872, when Democracy disowned itself
and nominated a man to please the 'independ-
ent" Republicans. The result OF that attempt
to sneak into the control of the federal offices
will be repeated this year. Horace Greeley,
with no record as Democrat, was beaten as
never was man before. Grover Cleveland
with no record of any kind, except as the
friend of monopoies, will be overwhelmed by
the majority that will be thrown against him
The Republican party will again triumph;
the ISLANDERS against Blaine will be swallowed,
as were those put upon Garfield; the country
will go onward in the way Of progress, and, in
1888, the Republican party hopes again to
merit the denunciation of the Democratic
party

That there should be pons asinorum
in this for anybody only proves the desire to
find something to stumble over, as mo-
ments investigation will show.
Take the first comparison Of per cents Of
increase. How long could the increase Of l26
per cent. be maintained? Take the total
taxable value to be $1,000 100000, in round
numbers, in 1850. By 1860 it had
increased 126 per cent, or to $4,000,
100000, in round numbers At the
same ratio the total would have to be $40, 00O,-
0OO 900 in 1870; 500, 0OO, 600, 900 in 1880;
5000 ZOO, 900, 900 in 1890; $40, 0OO 600 900 ten
years further on; 1890, 600, OOO, 900 in 1910;
and no less sum than 1920, 600, 0O0, 900 in
1920, or within the early lifetime Of the child
of to-day. To expect the wealth of this
country to increase with arithmetical progress
sion is an absurdity not worthy the attention
Of school-boy of ten years. By exactly the
same method Of reasoning it may be shown
that the Lad Of fifteen who doubles his capital
of $40 in one year must need be worth no less
than 1927, $40 on his thirtieth birthday.
The only fair comparison that can be made
is the amount, not the per cent, of increase
during corresponding periods. Take, for ex-
ample, increase in the net product Of Ameri-
can manufactures: Between 1850 and 1860 it
was 1890, 321, 288. Between 1860 and 1870,
despite the fact that the government had a
fearfully devastating internal war Of four
years duration, the increase was $54O, 1851, 976,
or, in round numbers, $3.50, 900, 600 more than
during the preceding decade The increase
between 1870 and 1880 was $577, 637, O82, a
sum in itself greater than the total value Of
the products at 1850. In other words, while
the increase between 1850 and 1860
was "a per cent, the increase between
1860 and 1870, compared with the same, was
over 1l6 per cent, and the per cent. Of in
crease during the last census decade was
nearley 125 per cent The person who pre-
tends to expect hundred per cent increase
in anything, or even seyenty-6ve per cent,
compounded, expects that which is impossi-
bic and which he knows is impossible. If

Some fatuous Democrats are finding cause for
rejoicing in letter alleged to have been written
to friend previous to the Chicago convention
by Hon. James Speed, Lincoln,s Attorney-gen
eral. He is quoted as saying in this epistle:
Should the Democrats give the country a
Statesman and gentleman as their candidate 1
think we had better vote for him.
AS the Democrats failed to give the country
either statesman or gentleman in the best
sense of that word, in the person Of their presi-
Dental candidate, q second letter from Mr. Speed
would probably not be received by the party
with equal effusion.
