SUPPOSE the Republican press had made
the entire campaign on the Halpin affair,
confessed, as it has been, by Clevolaud's
supporters, without exception. what would
have been the outlook for Republican tri-
umph at this stage Of the campaign? Dark
aud dreary enough, no doubt. That would
have been just such an error as the Demo.
Gratis have perpetrated. They have
made the ontire fight on tho Null
ligan business. They gave the people
Mulligan for breakfast, dinner, sup
per and lunch. They served him up
fried, boiled, roasted, deviled and raw. But
when they looked for victory in return for
all this, they found that tho people were
discussing free trade, protection, good
wages for good work and kindred subjects,
and had not taken the least bit of stock in
Mulligan. And now there is a hurrying to
and fro in Democratic printing offices.
Thereis demand for "boldfaced letter. in
every one of them. The editors are d.
rected to puff nothing but American labor
now, and their crude, hurried, sophomore
lucubrations on the subject arc all Co be
printed in black, boldfaced type. The mud
machines are all silenced and are TO be sent
to tho rear and covered over with the Amer
lean flag, just as one sees tho slums of our
cities shadowed by "Old Glory" in the
hope that its starry folds may hide some Of
the rottenness and filth within, and thus
induce an honest, decent man now and
then to enter their foul dens, under the
mistaken idea that ne is going where hon
esty can afford to 20.
1t is too late! Tho Democracy may
bring out the flag. They may humble and
maunder about American interests and
American labor and its protection, but all
Of this newborn zeal for American interests
and American workmen will avail tho party
nothing. That party deliberately made its
choice away back in June, when Mr.. Blaine
and General Logan were first nominated.
They chose Mulligan instead of principle,
and in Mulligan's bed and with Mulligau
they will have to lie. The people-the
real people-the laboring people-the wage
earners and the wealth producers have
got away beyond all tho trash and the Dem
ocratic slush flung down. to them in the
place Of principles, and all tho Democrats
can do now is to catalogue this campaign
among their other blunders, take their ap-
preaching defeat with what philosophy they
can and try to do better in 1888. This
makes it long time between drinks, we
know, but don't see any other remedy just
now.

IT is wonderful The candidacy of Mr..
Blaine has stirred up an enthusiasm that
sweeps everything before. And tho enthu-
siasm is not confined to any one section of
tho Union, nor any ono class of people. 1t
pervades all sections, and has aroused all
classes and occupations. Tho millionaire
merchant and his clerks; the manufacturer
and his employees; the boss and his hands
tho banker and tho day laborer, all, all
work together-all march shoulder to
shonlder-all carry the torch in the ranks
Of the hosts of American freomen. The re-
cent demonstration of tho business mon of
New York Is striking example of the all
pervading enthusiasm Of the American
people for James G. Blaine aud John A..
Logan. And why have these men aroused
such ftiroro among the American people
Tho reason isnot to be found far away. The
people, and all classes of tho people, feel 10
their very bones that If these men are
elected We will have really and truly
American administration of the Govern
ment-at homo and abroad--foreign and
domestic-National and individual; that
American citizens, American commerce,
American fabrics and products-iu a
word, American interests of all kinds
will bo stimulated, enlarged and
protected by every means tho National
Government can wield at homo or abroad.
American patriotism is not dead, but is full
Of buoyant life and energy, and it is look
Ing to every quarter of the globe for oppor-
tunities to manifest itself by enlarging
American trade and energizing American
commerce. II is these considerations that
have aroused the American people like
trumpet blast, and the response is magnifi-
cent beyond precedent. And the tide is
rising higher and higher with each sue.

The New York World has lately discoy-
cred that the Democratic platform says
American labor" once-only once; and it
prints those words in the boldest of black
boldface, in the hope that they may catch
the eyes of the platoons and regiments Of
workingmen who are daily turning their
backs on the free trade Democracy. Up to
this, the eleventh hour, the World has made
itself hoarse shouting to the people that the
Democratic platform consisted entirely of
Mulligan. But the Ohio cyclone opened its
eyes, and it has discovered, all at once, that
somehow the people don't take any stock in
Mulligan, but do take an intense interest in
American labor. Bat tho discovery comes
too late to save the Democracy from over
whelming defeat. All the boldfaced letter
ever cast cannot now make the working
men Of this country believe that tho Demo-
cratic party cares baubee for their inter
est so long as it persists in thrusting Grover
Cleveland upon them. His acts and the
Worlds new professions don't consist some
how, and the people are quick to SEQ tho
sham, and they will spow the candidate
and professions both out Of their mouths.

IS a speech delivered last Mon
day, in Newark, and speaking upon
the tariff question, Gov. Cleveland
said:
at is quite plain that the people
have a right to demand that no more
money should be taken from them
directly or indirectly, for public
uses than is necessary for an eco
nomlcal administration of the gov
ernmenL tCheers. Indeed, the
right of the government to exact
tribute from the citizen is limited to
its actual necessities, and every cent
taken from the people beyond that
required for the protection by the
government is no better than rob.
berry. We surely must condemn,
then, system which takes from the
pockets of the people millions OF
dollars not needed for the support
of the government, and which
tempts the Inauguration of corrupt
schemes and extravagant expendi-
tures. Applause. The Democrat,
ic party has declared that all taxa
ton shall be limited to the require
ments of an economical government,
This is plain and direct, and it dis
tinctly recognizes the value of labor
and its right to governmental care
when it further declares that the
necessary reduction in taxation and
limitation thereof to the country's
needs should be effected without de-
priving American labor of the abll-
ity to compete successfully with
foreign labor and without injuring
the interests of our laboring popu-
lation, AT this time, when the sui
ferages of the laboring men are SC
industriously sought, they should
by careful inquiry, it seems to me,
discover the party pledged to the
protection of their interests and
which recognizes in their labor some
thing most valuable to the prosperity
of the country and primarily entitled
to its care and protection"

friendship, help, affection, happi-
ness. In pursuing these, tact and
common sense suggest certain OBJ
servances, excellent in their way
when used only as appliances, but
wretched subterfuges when, as is too
often the case, they are made to fill
the place of reality. Thus, etiquette
comes to be valued above kind feel
ing, polteness above sympathy,
good manners above goodness of
heart which it is supposed to repre-
sent. Truth is sacrificed to pre-
tense, reality to appearance.

THERE is now one hundred and

of capital lying idle, while our peo-
pie are bearing the burden of war
