A western Speech .
DELIVERED AT THE Iowa STATE CoSvEN-
rIoS-PUSGENI REMARKS FOR THE DEMO
cRACY.

1t builds up mans political constitution
to take front view of the fighting strength
of the republican party of Iowa. demo-
crzt has not been seen on the streets of an
Iowa city after O'Clock on election night
for a quarter of century. The music ofthe
telegraph office has been their annual eleRy
of grief. They look upon a bulle.ln-ooard
as an enemy of free government, and accept
the first half of Franklin's maxim, ''early to
bed" when the returns are coming In.
The first act of the democratic party Is TO
file schedule in bankruptcy. Already their
property is out of their own name. Their
national standard is in the hands of man
whose name is not disclosed bv the demo-
cratic national record Four years ago his
name could have prudently been used as an
alias under which to travel incognito all over
the known world outside of Buffalo. To
elect him President would be like lending
money to a stranger on the train. Modern
democrats of the practical school have no
creed except the oath of office. ALI the
important democratic principles are unit for
use. They have been left out in the Held
just where they were used last, with not even
a bunch of swamp grass thrown ever them
in sun and rain. until rot and rust have done
their fatal work.
IL IS true tney Talk piOuslE VI Tue neeu VI
reform, and, with an ipexcusable libel, &C.
cuse the integrity of the republican civil ser
vice. They work their favorIte classical al
fusion to the Augean stables for all there is
in it. These, they assert, must be cleaned
out. Yet from the general appearance of the
crowd that is on hand to do the business, the
average citizen is likely to conclude that
their intention is to steal the fork rather than
clean out the barn. 1t is true they pre-empt
all sides of the tariff question. They profess
to settle that issue by jargon of words
without precedent in the annals of nonsense
and confusion. You might as well try to fit
the hundred-headed dog of the ancient fable
with straw hat as to place q candid and
Ineligible tariff platform under the feet of
the Democratic party. They approach that
question and nearly every other like man
emptying hard coal ashes in a high wind,
with their eyes shut snd their backs to the
subject.
The people of this country like brains
nervous matter under the roots of the hair.
In James G. Blaine they find a man the
scope of whose faculties is perfect horizon
"a man who knows the size of this nation-a
man who knows the history of this nation-a
man who knows the strength eff this nation
a man who knows the rights of this nation
"a man who comprehends with a serene
faith the mission of the Republic and its

Turn the Rascals Out.
SEND A REPUBLICAN CONGRESS TO WASHING
TON.

The democratic House which met last De-
cember with abundant professions of econo-
my exceeded the appropriations made by the
republican House the year before by S27,-
sis 900, or over 10 per cent. While the dem
ocratic majority was elected in 1882 with the
cry of reduced taxation and increased expen-
diture, i: did not take off dollar of taxa
ton and it added enormously to the expendi-
lures of the Federal government in a year
when every firm and corporation in the land
was forced to economic. Yet the republican
Congress which preceded the present demo-
cratic House was extrasagant, as republican
Houses go. If we go back ten years. to the
days when all branches of the government
were in republican hands and which demo-
Gratis talk about as extravagent, it will be
found that the annual appropriations were
over $50. 900, 900 below the riotous extrava-
gance Of these democrats who preach econo-
my at the polls and waste the peoples money
like water at Washington. Turn the rascals
out. Send republican Congress to Wash
ington. -Phiiadeiphia Press.

A Democrat with a poor memory

Editor Kenne6ec Journal:
The democrats of this place had a rally
Tuesday evening, addressed by DIR. Lancaster
of your city, and young Leigh of Hallowell
The burden of Leigh's speech was what a
republican his father had been but could not
go with the party any longer. DR.. Lancaster's
theme was that ''the rascals should GO" He
did not tell his hearers anything about
what he did with the $1,000 that
Gov. Garcelon paid over to him
during the count-out," never mentioned about
the Competing that he sold and never gave the
State credit for, while he was Superintendent
of Public Buildings; in fact he never once
referred to the Hale investigation, and the
damaging disclosures therein made, nor why
he then declared that he should never NEEDLE
with politics again. DR.. L. took the place of

This is an exhibit which is accurate.
1t shows facts which every American la
borer onght to consider. It shows that in
this country, where protection prevails.
wages are nearly double what they are in
Great Britain, where free trade prevails.
Elect Mr.. Cleveland President and wa
ges in Massachusetts and Maine will run
down to the pauper wages paid in Great
Britain.
Elect Mr.. Blaine President, and under the
policy of protection which he represents
and supports, wages will continue up to
the standard shown in the Massachusetts
column of the foregoing table.
Workingmen should think of these facts
before they cast their vote next Monday,
and determine to vote the republican tick
ct with FREDERICK ROBBIE at the head.
for in doing this they will be voting di-
rectly for their own interests; while in
voting for the democratic candidate, Red
man, they would be voting against them
selves.

A SANDER Answered.

Congressman p. A. Collins of Boston,
who is announced to speak in this State for
the democracy, recently made a speech in
New York in which is the following state
ment:
"Thirty years ago James G. Blaine turned up in
Augusta, Me- and adopted a fashionable religion.
good friend of mine, Father John Baptist, was
tarred and teathered there and believe ridden on
rail- The Kennebec Journal, Mr.. Blaine's paper,
instead of denouncing the outrage, raid there was
great provocation for it,
This base Islander and falsehood has been
answered and exposed completely by Mr..
Patrick OGrady of New York, who re
sided in Bangor at the time of the outrage
upon Father Baptist The letter of Mr..
O'Grady appeared in a recent number of the
New York Tribune from which we copy the
following:
81 was resident of Bangor at the time of the oc-
currence referred to. Father Baptist had church
at Ellsworth, not at Augusta. The population of
Ellsworth at that time consisted chiefly of lumber
men and ship carpenters from the neighboring Prov
nces of Canada and New Brunswick, mostly from
the latter Province. The ship carpenters were the
principal actors and ringleaders there. They were
Orangemen from New Brunswick, and not Ameri-
citizens of the United States. Father Bap-
bst himself told me this The outrage denounced
throughout the State, and the people in many of the
towns, especially at Bangor, held Indignation meet
ings and condemned the dastardly deed. The Ken

Hon. JAMES &. BLAINE:
Vermont points the way to victory next
November in an old-fashioned republican
majority of the State ticket. In the face
OF an INSCRIPTIONS enemy, who conducted
a still hunt in the canvass, assisted by the
independents, and the trickery OF split
tickets, we have won glorious victory.
The Green Mountain republicans send
greetings in majority OF $4,000. The
canvass was made on national issues. and

tective tariff, and protection to American
citizens abroad. WARREN GIBBS,

The Tariff and Maine Industries.

Hon. A. F. Crockett of Rockland, a
member Of the Governors Council, and a
manufacturer of lime, says: The princi-
pal industry in Rockland is lime manuiac-
turing. We pay our men who work at the
"kiln 81 day. In New-Brunswick they
pay 81 and Sl.25 a day for the same work.
Free Trade would drive this industry out
''ot Rockland. 1t is the same in nearly all
our leading Maine industries, including
farming and numbering. Free trade would
be blight upon all of them.

Protection and Wages.
Facts for LabOring Men.

Mr.. Cleveland is silent in his letter of
acceptance in regard to the tariff, but it is
we'll known that he is opposed to protec-
ton and in favor of free trade.
If any doubt existed upon this matter
the recent letter of Mr.. Henry l.. Nelson.
Speaker Carlisle's private secretary, which
was published in the Boston Herald, has
removed it. Mr.. Nelson states in that let
ter that ''there is no doubt of Mr.. Cleve-
lands position. and he is as thorough
"lv in earnest in the cause of reform as
''his friend Mr.. Dorsheiner. In the con-
test in Congress last winter he stood sCith
''Carlisle and Morrison and against Ran
dali. 1t is within my personal knowl-
ledge that he wrote letters to New York
members of Congress urging them to
''rote Wth Mr.. Morrison, both on the
consideration and on the motion to strike
''out the enacting clause OF the Morrison
"bill. AT LEAST ONE VOTE and per-
chaps more were gained tor the bill by
'these letters" Mr.. Nelson of course
was in a position to know about this mat
ter. He farther goes on to declare that
Mr.. Cleveland lis as aggressive AGAINST
"PROTECTION as any of the men who
made Mr.. Carlisle Speaker"
This settles all dispute about Mr.. Cleve-
lands sentiments in regard to the tariff.
He is opposed to protection. He is an
aggressive free trader.
Now let US see what this signifies to the
laboring men of this country. If he
should be elected President of the United
States free trade would rule this country
as long as his administration might con-
tinue. The effect would be that many of
our American industries would be totally
destroyed by competition with British free
trale and pauper labor. and more would
be obliged to cut down wages to starvation
prices in order to continue business Free
trade cuts down wages. Protection in
creases wages.
This is proved by statistics carefully
compiled by many authorities. 1t is as
certain as that figures do not lie. One of
the best authorities on this matter is the
recent report of Mr.. Carroll d. Wright,
Chief of the Massachusetts Bureau of
Statistics of Labor. In that report he
publishes the result of very painstaking.
elaborate, and accurate investigation as to
the prices paid in Massachusetts, and Eng
land for the same kind of work in twenty
four industries. The following table
shows the result
