No holder case is recorded in Ameicdn

We defy any democratic dodser to
explain away OF justify the juggling with

scarcely claim that he is so necessary to

his shadowy chance, perhaps one in q mill

pick up handful Of the votes he so des-
perately needed in order to have a chance
for any term at all. Now he has had one

Trade for the week ending July Fl,
says: "The prospects, which are the

prospects favor a large agricultural

yet beyond danger.
1.-THE manufacturing outlook is u
little better, though the prevailing
spirit is still one of uncertainty and
waiting.
"The actual trade in progress,
though little smaller than year
ago, must be considered large for the
season. General improvement is
noted at St. Paul, in manufactures
at Pittsburg, in real estate at Omaha,
in lumber and iron at Detroit.
Business appears dull at most points,
however, Congressional uncertainties

THE ADVOCACY OF FREE TRADE.
1t Comes from Foreigners Who Want to
Break Up Our Industries.


Break Up Our Industries.
Back in 1888, before the protec.
ton issue was sprung, Peter Cooper,
the eminent philanthropiss who de-
voted millions of his private funds
and several years of his life to the
amelioration of the condition of his
fellow beings, wrote a letter to a
largely attended labor meeting in
New York city in which he said:
81 have noticed in my own bust
ness life, extending over a period of
nearly 70 years, that every reduction
of the tariff Tor the tariff for revenue
only plan) has brought wretehedness
and ruin. 1t is the natural effect
from such a cause. Nothing is
more certain than that the advocacy
of free trade comes from foreigners
who want to break up our industries.
They have done it several times al.
ready, and they mean to do it again.
The laborers of the old world get
hardly enough to keep body and soul
together, and that is the condition in
which the advocates Of tree trade are
trying to place our laborers."
Mr.. Cooper was the father-in-law OF
Abram Hewitt, present Mayor OF
New York, and Democrat; but he
was too shrewd not to see that the
adoption of free trade principals
would deal death blow to American
labor and American industries.
