1872 and induced Congress to pass the ''tariff
for revenue only" which was followed by the
panic of 1857 and the impoverished national
treasury of 186O-61.
During the civil war, and after it, the Dem
ucratic press persistently assailed the protect
i've tariff, and were encouraged by the war
Democrats who had become Republicans. The
party bided its time, and in 1880 plucked up
courage enough to declare, in its presidential
platform, that it favored ga tariff for revenue
only" The people saw through this decep-
tion-saw clearly that the Democrats wanted
to establish free trade, and inflicted an over
whelming defeat on Hancock and his party.
This popular rebuke did not suffice. In
1882 the Democratic majority rejected Mr.
Randall for the speakership of the House of
Representatives because he was a moderate
protectionist, and chose Mr. Carlisle, of Ken
lucky, because he is rabid free trader. The
committee on ways and MEANS which he ap-
pointed, soon reported the Morrison tariff bill,
which received the support of 141 Democratic
members. That measure was in direct con-
fict with the principle of protection, and was
designed by its promoters as first step to-
ward free trade. 1t was so declared to be by
no less a person than Hon. William DORIS
heimer.
In the face Of this historical record, how
can Mr.. Bynum declare truthfully that 'the
Democratic party is not free-trade party"
Mr.. Rowland, who publishes here the Free
man, an avowedly 'free-trade' journal, can
didly admits that it was at the instance of him
self and his free-trade friends that the
Democratic convention nominated Mr.. Bynum
in preference to Mr.. English. The Demo
Gratis, in fact, repeated here the dodge which
they performed in their national convention,
when they nominated Cleveland to win the
votes of Republican free-traders. The country
can not confde its great industrial interests to
the care of party which seeks to gain power
by false pretenses. On the tariff question the
American people demand a positive policy.
such as the Republican party is pledged to
give them.

WRITING from Charleville, County Cork
Ireland, under date of Oct. II, Dennis H..
O'Connor says:
"The Irish of County Cork greet their
brothers of Maryland, and bid them God speed
in the good work of defeating the English can
didate, Cleveland. On the night of the 4th of
November telegraph me the result of the
election, and will pay expenses. All Ireland
will be ablaze with bonfres on the receipt of
the news of Englands defeat in the person of
Cleveland. The efforts Mr.. Blaine made for
my release from British dungeon can never
be forgotten by me, His name has been a
terror to the petty British tyrants in this
country, and his election to the presidency
would deal such a blow to English influence
throughout the world that it may be the be-
ginning of the end of the fall of the doomed
British empire"

LAST Tuesday, just one week ago, Hon.
Thomas A. Hendricks was being banqueted
by his admirers during his trip to the south
ern part of the State. The banquet was
costly one, and the wines were rich, rare and
numerous And all the time Mr. Hendricks
and the Democratic lords were feasting and
drinking, Mr. Thornton's family was starving,

The Atlanta Constitution observes calmly:
"It is a singular fact that many great reform
ers have been cruel and brutal in their family
relations" The esteemed Constitution affects
to believe that Mr.. Cleveland is great re-
former, but the admission that the treatment
of his son is brutal is quite surprising at this
stage of the game. 1t would have been more
judicious to wait until after Blaine's election
before making the confession.

AbsalOn.


The old man kinder sorter braced himself
Till the last echo of the sheepskin band
Had died away down Pennsylvania street,
Then, standing with his back towards the CRATE,
And one eye glittering on his adult son,
He shot his chin out sIyward, and broke forth
In the resistess eloquence of verse;
'And now my noble boy, that thou csnst vote,
And walk forth proudly as thy father dost,
Who swells his chest and buttons up his coat
To voice his righteous sentiments or bust
hope thou hast such views as would become
Thy father, Absaloml
''Tis thy first whirl my SON and thou art str
All unac custoned to the subtle tricks
Of certain would-be leaders-ft to fill
Not the rear ranks of Polotics;
Therefore thoult have to look about thee some,
With both eyes, Absaloml
'Thoult doubtless hear the siren voice of those
Who plead for thy support for love of thee
For love of country-aye and country foes,
Couldst thou remember Sixty-two and three,
When thou, an infant, beat thy tiny drum,
And shamed them, Absalom!
"Thoult hear the drvel of corruption n fraud
Of knaves turned out of office ard thout hear
The howl of those WHO hungry applaud
When martyrs names mentioned wiVL sneer;
Thoult marvel that they are not stricken dumb
They will be- Absalom!
"Bide thou IN patience but little yet
Thy ballot hath been sent with certain aim
To reach the heart whose blood shall ooze as jet
Beside the whteness of our leaders fame;
Then we will ratify and whoop.up some,
And paint things, Absaloml'

Advice to Voters.

New York Sun (Dem.)
Every genuine Democrat who wants his party
recognized on a broader and better foundation,
should now vote to get Grover Cleveland out of
the way. Every elector who wants to
make sure of protection to American labor, must
to the ballot boxes and do his best to beat
Grover Cleveland. Every voter who
wants man of brains instead of man of beef
in the White House, must do all he can to keep
Grover Cleveland on the outside Ev-
erybody who wants the Executive Mansion at
Washington, after March A, 1885, to be place
suitable for respectable women to visit, should
vote to keep Grover Cleveland out of it.

In Fort Wayne, Governor st. John asserted
that the Democratic party was better tenn
perance party than the Republican party. In
some of the Eastern States the expenses of
the st. John campaign are openly and no
toriously betrayed by the Democracy. In this
State the subscription books of the St. John
organ are given OF sold to the Democratic
candidates, that they may have access to
every supposed Prohibition voter in the State.

In 1872 number of Republican voters, at
first estimated among the hundreds of thou
sands, but afterwards dwindling to an insig-
nifcant few, called themselves independents,
or Greeley Republicans. They were reform
ers," and bore striking resemblance to the
Independents of this campaign. They were
thus described in speech by Roscoe Conk-
ling
"The Democratic statesmen the leaders in
a hundred fights, have been mere lockers on;
leadership has been assumed by Republican
renegades and outs men so eaten up by envy,
or so maddened with the loss or refusal Of
place and patronage, that nothing would salts
fly them short of a rancorous revengeful per-
sonal raid. When man turns Turk he spits
on the cross; and when wide-throated ultra
Republicans clandestinely trade with the enc
my and then turn open traitors to their party
they become the meanest and fercest of OPP
ponents, Just as a Yankee slave overseer from
New England was always more brutal than
those born in the South. When men whose
vanity was hurt, and Others gnawed by amb-
ton and cupidity, went out to ruin the party
they could not rule, madness drove them on.
They had no polar star, except hatred of Grant
and his supporters. These lusty patriots, who
modestly assume the name of Teformers
would not have an ordinary presidential can
vass for the staid discussion of political ques-
tions; such proceeding would have been too
tame and insipid for them. Their stomachs
craved stronger and more game-favored meat
hard names must be Called vengeance must
be satisfied the President must be politically
court maftialed, or dragged before a national
assize to be tried as a malefactor"

UNDER the order of the Democratic
national committee, the Northern States have
been flooded with Republican tickets on
which there are the names of one or two or
more Democratic electors. 1t is hoped to
thus steal a sufficient number of votes to add

~PTTTsBuRG, April 2j.-One of the
most remarkable prize tights that ever
occurred in this city or vicinity took place
last night at Arsenal park between Bison
Jack and Jack Clifford for 800 Il side.
Previous to the battle a ball had been in
progress in which over thirty young girls
and several mothers with infants in their
arms were participants. When time wa,
called at 1890, women US well as men
crowded around the ring and during the
fight the former were the most enthusiast
tic shouters for their respective favorites.
The fight was with soft gloves, London
prize ring ruler. From the start Clifford,
who displayed the most science, had the
best of it, and soon had the battle well in
his hands. Bilson Jack fought savagely,
however, and refused TO give up until the
l2lst round, when friends interfered and
the mill was awarded to Clifford. Both
men were terribly punished. BilSon Jack
had to be carried from the ring. A mum
Der of policemen watched the fight to the
close without interfering. The battle
lasted one hour and iorty-fye minutes.
