Republican, ms nj Sen.


New York Times says the opinion is
quite commonly entertained among
Republican Members of the Legisla-
ture, that their party is sure of sue
cess in the coming Presidential cleo
tion on "the tariff and other issues"
whoever may be selected as it's stan
dard bearer at the Chicago National
convention. 1t is to be a fight for
principle, in which the candidates are
to pose as mere figure heads.
Such, however, is not the unani-
nous Republican opinion. There are
others not quite so sanguine that vic
tory is theirs by Generalization and
who prudently conceive that the par
ty twill need, not only all the advan-
tage it may derive from the tariff is
sue, but must have candidate who
will revive no antagonisms on account
of his connection with past quarrels,
and who will fairly represent the pro
gressive and reform elements in the
party"
These, it will be seen upon slight
examination, are radical differences
and show that the Republicans of
New York are quite as much at sea
with regard to men and measures, as
elements of Presidential campaign
policy, as it is possible for the New
York Democrats to be.
He is certainly a very credulous
and ill-informed Republican who be-
lieves that majority Of the people of
this country are prepared to swallow
the dogmas of an old-fashioned high
protection platform, with anybody as
a candidate who may succeed in cap
turing the nomination; because there
is an undoubted tendency of the pub
lie mind in the direction Of reform,
which no party can afford to ignore.
The difficult question will therefore
devolve upon the Republican Nation
al convention to adopt declaration
Of policy which shall at the same time
represent the progressive and reform
elements of the party" and satisfy
the non progressive elements which
stubbornly cling to the tariff as the
corner-st of our National welfare.
Nor will it be an easy matter to find
a candidate, who shall not only per-
sonify q contradiction of ideas, but
'srevive no antagonisms on account Of
his connection with past quarrels."
Our Republican friends have nam
ed no candidate as yet who can fully
meet the requirements OF such an ex-
traordinary position. 1t may be pos
sible to find men in the Republican
party who can simultaneously stand
abreast of the times and behind the
times-who can hold out promises Of
relief to the people in one hand and
promises of undisturbed security to
the monopolists in the other-but
they are scarce, and not of q charac-
ter to command the public confidence.
To find man not intimately iden-
titled with the factions that have 90
much imperilcd the peace of the Re-
publican party is easily enough done,
perhaps. To nominate him is an
other. thing. But whatever policy
the Chicago convention may enunci-
ate-whether one of progress and re-
form. or that of "letting bad enough
alone" which is not improbable, the
situation is full of complications and
mbarrassments, by the foreknowl-
edge and due appreciation of which
the Democratic party may largely
profit, if it will Washington Post

The burdens resting upon the
farmer were very forcibly and graph
ically described by Mr.. Turner dem
ocrat) of Kentucky in a speech in
the House, March 7th 1882. He
said:
"Here is a statement showing a
few of the burdens of the farmer:
Under this tariff bill lie rises in the
morning, puts on his common flannel
shirt taxed IS per cent, his coat
taxed 81 per cent, shoes taxed 30
per cent, and hat taxed 80 per cent !;
takes water from a bucket taxed 35
per cent, and washes his face and
hands in a bowl taxed 35 per cent,
and dries them on cheap cotton towel
taxed 40 per cent. He sits down to
his humble meal and eats from a
plate taxed 80 per cent, with knife
and fork taxed IS per cent, drinks
his coffee with sugar taxed 6S per
cent, seasons his food with salt taxed
SO per cent. and pepper taxed 81 per
cent. He looks around on his wife
and children all taxed in the same
way; takes chew of tobacco taxed
1879 per cent. or lights a cigar taxed
119 per cent. And, sir, even the SUM-
light of heaven that pours into his
humble dwelling must come through
window glass taxed SO per cent; and
yet he thinks he lives in the freest
Government under heaven. Then he
starts to WORKOUTS bride taxed
36 per cent. on his horse, and takes
his horse that has been shod-the
nail used in shoeing being taxed SO
per cent, driven by hammer taxed
20 per cent-and bitches him to a
plow taxed As per cent, with chains
taxed So per cent; and after the
days labor is closed and his family
is all gathered around, he reads a
chapter from his Bible taxed 25 per
cent, and kneels to God on humble
carpet taxed 81 per cent, and then
he rests his wearied limbs on a sheet
taxed As per cent, and covers himself
with blanket that has paid 104 per
cent. Nor do these grasping man.
ufacturers stop here, but even the
the broom with which his good wife
sweeps the floor is taxed IS per cent,
and the cooking vessels used in pre-
pairing her husbands frugal meal
are taxed AZ per cent, and the soda
used to tighten his bread is taxed Sc
per cent. She sits down to her sew
ing with needle taxed Is per cent,
and spool Of thread taxed IA per
cent, to make a calico dress taxed
So per cent. or if she wishes to knit
warm socks to protect her husband
and children from the bitter cold
she uses yarn taxed 100 per cent.
And thus daily and hourly must the
hard earnings of the laborer go to
satisfy the manufacturer and add to
his ill-gotten wealth."
