TO be made SO long as the Dem

power, to reduce taxes andles-

TIE Campaign which is now
drawing to a close has been a
fight for future existence
on the part of the Republican
party, while the Democratic
party has only been fighting
for supremacy. 1t has been
the fight of the people and
will be the peoples election.
and in all probability will re-
suit in the death OF the Re-
publican party. The campaign
ON the part of the Republican
has been irregular throughout
and self-contradictions and
feeble apologies have char
acterized their statements AT
various points. 1t is crafty
ing to know that public pred
ludice is in favor of Democra-
tic success and a reduction OF
taxes. II is said there need
be no apprehension about
New York, that the empire
State is perfectly true to the
Democratic faith and will give
an overwhelming majority for
the full ticket. Such being the
case the skies are bright, and
it is utter folly to look at them
through smoked glass and
fancy that clouds are in sight.
1t is the duty OF every good
Democrat TO look for any diff
Guilty that may exist in order
that they may be carefully met.
But it is not their duty to i'm
agine obstacles where none
exist. or to lend credulous
ears to reports of those who
arc influenced by the misrep-
reservations Of our opponents.
Democratic messenger., 1888-10-20

The leaders of the good
old Democracy of Worcester
should leave no stone unturn-

for the Democratic ticket a
larger majority that she has

ONE of the leading democratic papers
of the country, short time since, rose
To remark that Mr.. CLEVELAND is the
best and ablest president the country
ever had with the possible exception of
President LINCOLN. The NoRTHER-
NER well remembers when this same
paper, in common with its democratic
contemporaries, habitually called Mr.
LINCOLN a baboon, an ape and other
similar pet names. And at the same
time, the same papers called the sol
diers who were fighting the battles of
their country LINCOLN hirelings and
approvingly published the infamous
saying of Mr.. VOORHEES, that every
soldier ought to wear "A collar, labeled
a. LINCOLN, his dog" But now a
change has come over the spirit of
democratic dreams and LINCOLN is the
greatest president the country ever
had, and the democratic party is emit
tied TO more than moiety of the cred
it for crushing out the rebellion. 1t
looks rs though the democratic party
were undergoing a sort of death bed
repentance.

JUDGE THURMAN, like other free
traders, repeats the stale and oft eX-
ploded statement that the tariff is tax
added, not only To the goods imported,
but also To those of domestic manufac-
ture The following instances are suf-
ficient to disprove the statement: Calico
can be purchased here for six cents a
yard-a sum equal to the tariff; in
England, according to Mr. THURMAN's
theory, it ought to be had for nothing.
Certain kinds of dress goods on which
the duty is seventeen cents per yard,
can be bought In this country for ten
cents; they should be given away in
England and seven cents yard bonus
for taking them. Chloroform is subject
to duty of fifty cents per pound, and
yet it can be bought here for thirty-five
cents, fifteen cents less than the duty.
At one time, steel rails were selling in
America at twenty-seven dollars per
ton, while the duty was twenty-eight
dollars The tariff was reduced to
seventeen dollars and the price has adj.
vanced to thirty-three dollars. Before
the era of protection, imported steel
rails sold for S112 per ton. We might
extend this list at great length, but it is
needless. 1t is not true that the tariff
is added to the price of domestic pro-
ducts and manufactures; all the exper
fence of this country goes to show the
falsity of the proposition.

The Allegan Reunion.

The recent reunion of the soldiers
and sailors of south western Michigan,
held at Allegan, called forth large
concourse of old veterans and babe fair
to be one of the most successful gather
ings in the history of the association,
and would have been so, had it not
been for sad and terrible accident
that occurred on Thursday afternoon,
the third day of the meeting.
While the crowd was listening to Col
Carr's grafton, some of the members of
the Kalamazoo camp, 5. .. ", who
had charge of the artillery, were pre-
pairing cartridges in their tent, when a
fifty pound can of powder exploded
with terrific force. Lee Weed was so
badly injured that he died that same
evening. Will McLain was also terribly
hurt, and three others, Burt Sumner,
Frank Proceus and Lew Parker were
seriously and painfully burned. The
awful accident cast gloom over the
camp and made the subsequent pro-
ceedings more of mournful than of a
joyful character.
The following is list of the officers
of the association for the ensuing year:
Hon. Geo. Nj. Buck of Kalamazoo, pres
ident NJ A. Merrifield of Union City,
president; A. A. Brakeman of OF
sego, secretary; G. NJ Hall of Union
City, treasurer; w. H. Miller of Ber-
rien, Norm Cooper of St. Joseph, VIM
Norton Jr of Van Buren,, VIM. Christie
of Calhoun, Alfred Millens of Branch,
and III. III. Pope of Allegan, county
presidents.

DEMOCRATIC newspapers and demo-

DEMOCRATIC newspapers and demo-
cratic orators insist, la THURMAN,
that, taking the purchasing power of
money into consideration, the laboring
man is paid fully as well in Europe as
in America. And yet the fact remains
that thousands upon thousands of labor
ing men are constantly emigrating
from the old world to the new, while
there are absolutely no American work
ingmen who seek to better their condi-
ton by casting their lot with the pauper
labor of the countries on the other side
of the sea. There is no truth in the
assertion made by the freetraders and
no truth in the implication that the
purchasing power of money is any
greater in England than in America.
There is no country on earth where the
laboring man can buy more of the
necessaries of life with the same amount
of money than in the United States.

THIS country depends almost entirely
on foreign countries for its supply OF
sugar, the domestic supply being only
equivalent to about one-eighth OF the
amount consumed; and yet, for the
purpose of retaining Louisiana, the
only sugar producing state in the
Union, i'm the democratic ranks, the
democratic party proposes to retain
duty of sixty-eight per cent on sugar.
Last year, the revenue on sugar was
nearly s6O, 900, 900, every dollar of which
was direct tax on the consumer, the
domestic production being so slight as
To have no effect whatever on the price.
But when the republicans proposed to
amend the MILLS bin by a still further
reduction of the duty on sugar, the
democrats promptly and contemptu-
ously rejected the amendment. And
vet we have heard of men who propose
To vote the democratic ticket because
of the tax on sugar! They ought to
open their eyes and get better posted.
Do they propose to lick the hand that
smites themg

THE democratic party is greatly con-
cerned about the welfare of the laborer
when it comes to the question of salt.
The tariff on salt, of which an ordinary
family may possibly consume dollars
worth in year, more or less, is a griev-
Gus burden in the eyes of the democ-
racy. But when it comes to sugar, an
article that costs the same family twenty
five dollars year or more, sixty-eight
per cent. duty is not at all oppressive.
Sugar grows in louisiana; salt is made
in Michigan. Let the laboring man,
and everybody else, remember that
when he orders dollars worth of SUI.
gar, the MILLS bill proposes to give him
sixty cents worth of sugar and forty
cents worth of democratic tariff.

THE MILLS bill taxes sugar, a Louis
lana product, sixty-eight per cent and
places salt, a Michigan product, on the
free list; it taxes rice, South Carolina
product, one hundred per cent, but
places wool, in which the entire North
is interested, on the free list; it places
a duty on undressed marble, a Tennes.
see product, of forty cents per cubic
foot, but makes Northern building
stone, freestone, sandstone and granite
free. 1t is protection for the South and
freetrade for The North, and that is one
reason why the voters of the North will
repudiate the democratic party.

A FEW months since, leading demo-
cratic journals were filled with freetrade
editorials and the MILLS blu was lauded
rs freetrade measure. But now the
democratic party is hedging; the peo-
pie are being heard from and they don't
endorse freetrade 1t is not freetrade
at all, we are told, but only an average
reduction of seven per cent. Ali but
that is not the question, the average re-
duction isn't what settles the matter.
1t is what articles are placed on the
free list and on what articles is the tar
if reducedg To illustrate; suppose
everything except rice and sugar were
placed on the free list and the duty on
those articles allowed TO remain as
now There would be no average re-
duction; on the contrary, there would
be an average increase of thirty-seven
per cent, and yet no one would have
the hardihood TO say that such meas
ure was not freetrade measure No
one should be led astray by this aver
age reduction sophistry.

You are feeling depressed, your appetite is
poor, you are bothered with headache, you
are fidgety, nervous and generally out of
sorts and want to brace up. Brace up, but
not with stimuants, spring medicines or
bitters, which have for their basis very cheap,
bad whiskey and which stimulate you for an
hour and then leave you in worse condition
than before. What you want is an Alternative
that will purify your blood, start healthy
action of liver and kidneys, restore your
vitality and give renewed health and strength.
Such medicine You will find in Electric
Bitters, and only 80 cents a bottle at Bar

Mr.. THURMAN, i'm his Port Huron
speech, said THE Negro is "A prolific
animal" Perhaps the expression will
win colored votes TO the democratic
ticket, but we doubt it, 1t shows pro
gress, though. Formerly "nigger' was
the customary, contemptuous demo-
cratic epithet for "A colored man. The
democratic candidate for ce-president
now calls him an animal. Perhaps, ut
some far-olf future time, the democratic
party may recognize him as a man.
We say perhaps, as we are 10y no means
sure about it.

THE congressional convention held
at Dowagac yesterday was a notable
assemblage of leading republicans from
all parts of the district. As was expect
ed, Mr. BURROWS, who was present,
was renominated by reclamation, St.
Joseph county being the one to bring
mis- name before the convention. 1t is
altogether likely that he will carry
