vance OF public opinion, but responsive to its de-
mands, the Democratic party is pledged to revise
the tariff in spirit of fairness to all interests
But in making reductions in taxes it is not
proposed to injure any domestic Industries, but
rather to promote their healthy growth. From
the foundation OF this government taxes col
lected at the custom house have been the chief
source of Federal revenue. Such they must con-
tinue to be. Moreover, many industries have
come TO rely upon legislation for successful con-
tinuance, that any change of law must at
every step be regardful of the labor and capital
thus involved. The process of reform must be
subject to the execution of this plain dictate of
justice.
All taxation shall be limited to the requiin-
nights of economical government. The neces-
sary reduction in taxation can and must be
effected without depriving American labor of the
ability to compete successfully with foreign
labor, and without imposing lower rates of duty
than will be ample to cover any increased cost
OF production which may exist in consequence
of the higher rate of wages prevailing in this
country.
Sufficient revenue to pay all the expenses of
the federal government, economically admin
istered, including pensions, interest and princi-
pal of the public debt, can be got, under our
present system of taxation, from custom house
taxes on fewer imported articles, bearing heav-
lest on articles of luxury, and bearing lghtest
on articles of necessity.
We, therefore, denounce the abuses of the ex-
listing tariff and, subject to the preceding limi-
tations, we demand that federal taxation shall be
exclusively for public purposes and shall not ex-
coed the needs of the government economically
administered
Let every voter understand that the tariff
is not the issue in this campaign. The issue
is honesty against dishonesty. Cleveland

he had just received letter from friend in
Winnipeg in which he stated that wheat in
that place was worth 85c per bushel, while in
Minnesota it was worth Csc. THAT" said
Straits head miller, interrupting him, SIS
because they have small crop in Manitoba
and the millers have to pay high price to
get it." ''And because we have large crop
in Minnesota, y said Mr.. Donnelly, sis the
reason that the millers propose to take II
from us for nothing" [Great laughter and
applause.l
The Minneapolis millers pay all thai
wheat is WORTH, - said Straits head miller.
Mr.. Donnelly replied, ''If that is So why
are they SO anxious to shut out all competi-
ton! The man that pays the highest price
possible needs fear no competition from any
one" [Great applause
III was amusing to watch the audience,
When MIR. Donnelly commenced the major
ity of them were evidently cold and hostile,
but as he went on they gradually warmed up
and towards the close were decidedly enthu-
siastic. If the vote was taken tomorrow
Strait would not have a corporal's guard il
his own town. Whether he can stYaiqhtei
them out remains to be seen.
Strait has one difficulty to overcome. WheI
his gang of speakers tell the people that DON
nelly is a low-down demagogue and black
guard, full of base instincts and habits, the
people naturally ask one another, can these
charges be true of man who has written
two of the most scholarly and thoughtful
books of the age, that are read with delight
in both the old and new world; and who is
the correspondent of the greatest scholars
and philosophers of the age! Donnelly has
no speakers to follow and answer his de-
famers, but his books have lifted him above
the reach of their malice.
The campaign is a singular spectacle:
One man, all alone, fighting money, poweVs
patronage and gang of "whippersnappers,"
as he calls them, who, as soon as he leaves &
place, appear to lie about him; but who
would sooner face the devil than utter theiT
ISLANDERS in his presence.

THE DEMoCR1cY md TIE TAR


Mr.. James G.. Blaine, so accustomed to
falsehood, rarely opens his mouth on any
public occasion that he does not utter a dis
tnct lie or a number of them, as the occasion
seems to require. In his speech in West
Virginia he charges the Democratic party
with being Free Traders, and shows those peo-
pie how it would utterly ruin them If carried
into effect. This is true, but then he delib-
erately tells falsehood when he says that
Free Trade is the policy of the Democratic
party.
Every year there is q forced from the peo-
pie by tariff exacticns 500, 900, 600 over and
above the necessities of the government.
Now if this 500, 100000 went into the hands
of the laborers or even Into the hands Of the
manufacturers, there might be some
excuse for raising it, but it
does not; il goes into the vaults of the treas
ury department where it is withdrawn from
circulation and where it can not be of use to
any one in the country. While this enormous
surplus is not needed for governmental pur-
poses, the circulating medium is diminished
to that extent and to the same extent the
industries of the country are crippled. The
Democratic party stands on the tariff ques-
ton on the same platform with the Republi-
can party up to the necessities of the govern
ment, but is opposed to tariff which force
ably takes from the laboring men and others
the 500, 900, 600 annnsily for a surplus. Do
not be deceived. The Democratic party Is
not in favor free trade. Money must be
raised to defray the expenses of the govern
ment, and this must be done either
by the imposition of tariff duties
or BY direct taxation. As the
latter would be very distasteful to the Amer
lean people, the former must be the means
by which revenue is raised for governmental
purposes.
In raising this amount it can be so levied
as to protect our industries and our me-
chanics and laborers. Mr.. Blaine and his
party must not be allowed to place the Dem
oeratic party in false position. We believe
that the tariff should be revised so SIS TO leave
in the hands Of the people the 100000, 900
in excess Of the expenses Of the government
The utterauees ofthe Democratic platform
upon which Mr.. Cleveland stands without
mental reservation or evasion give forth no
uncertain sounds on this subject Resd
what it says:
The Democracy pledges itself 10 purify the
administration from corruption. 10 restore eecn-
oEnT- TO revive respect for law, snd 10 reduce
ts12Aiou 70 the lowest limit consistent with due
rccard 20 the preservation of The aitA Of the IA
zion 70 its creditors and pensioners.

THE New York semi religious Independent
says, ''we have never faltercd in our deYo-
ton to Republican ideas or to the Republic
an party" That fully accounts for the In
deDendest'S violent and malignant abuse of
Governor Cleveland. In this regard it is
like the venomous partisan Blaineite jour
nails The independent admits that Blaine is
corrupt and unworthy. In the face of this
admission says: ''We hope to see it the
Republican party prevail in Ohio and Indi-
ana" There is honesty, logic, consistency
and high-toned morality with vengeance!

Ex-SrArr Treasnrer WIN. Pfaen

Ex-STATE Treasurer VIM. Pfaender,
strong and heretofore consistent Republican,
made a speech at New Ulm a few days ago,
in which he cut loose from the lingo party,
and advocated the election of Cleveland and
Hendricks. Gen. John B. Sanborn, of St.
Paul, one of the most prominent and
stalwart Republicans in the state,
makes no concealment of his
being at variance with the Blaine wing of the
party, and has positively declined to speak
in his behalf. He says that Minnesota is
taxed fifteen millions annually by the iniqui-
tous tariff, which is eleven millions in ex-
cess Of the necessities Of the government,
and he does not approve that policy. There
are great many Republicans in Minnesota
who agree with Gen. Sanborn, and if this
was close state they would be in open
revolt.

WHEN the last batch of Mulligau letters
came out Blaine, with the cheek of which he
has such surplus, said he hoped every pa
per in the country would print them. It
would seem by the following that he once
entertained a differentview:
WINDSOR, Vt, May IL, 16S4.-In April or May
OF 1880 Blaine sent word TO have me meet him at
the Fifth Avenue hotel. He then authorized NE
to get the letters from Mulligan, pay ten thous-
and dollars if l could not get for less, and then
wanted Mr. Mulligan and myself to go to Eu-
rope and remain until after election at his ex-
pense. Mr.. MulIigan declined the offer. He
said Blaine had stolen his letters at Washington;
he never should have what he held at any price.

IT appears that the Republican frauds were
not confined to the Second precinct of the
Fourth ward last week. The business man
ager of the p. p. voted in the First precinct
of the Third ward, though he lives in the
Second precinct, and he undoubtedly voted
in the precinct where he resides also. The
Republicans should have challengers at their
primaries and keep list of the names and
residences of voters. Mr.. Cochran's predic-
ton that there twill be more frauds next
year." should make them watchful.
