Mr.. BRECKIYRIDGE of Kentucky tersely
defined the issue raised by the Mills bill,
in the house the other day, when he
said:
The question presented is whether congress
will relieve the manufacturers who have TO
pay enormous duties for their crude materials
duties which prevent them from competing
with foreign manufacturers. The true wisdom
of congress, in seeking to reduce the public
revenue. is to let the system be so altered by
conservative and cautious changes that crude
material will be brought into the country
rather than the finished product. Then the
profit of the manufacture will GO to the manu-
facturer and workman.

AWAY off in an obscure corner of the
Journal we find an editorial statement to
the effect that BEN HARRISON did not call
the greenbackers idiots. What he did
say was that the legislature should order
an idiot asylum erected for their benefit.

in this city in 1878, and shortly afterward
in a speech at Martinsville he stigma

A CORRESPONDENT asks THE SENTINEL if
Indiana ever voted for presidential elect

election was held in August prior to the
adoption of the new constitution, but
presidential electors were always chosen

SENATOR McDoNA1D's speech SATURDAY.

SENATOR MCDoNALD's speech Saturday
evening was happy effort. He made a
good many telling hits at the expense of
the monopoly candidates and the free
whisky platform, and showed up the ny
pocrisy and the demagogism of the G. o. p.
in most effective way. The grand old
democrat was in his best vein, and his
speech was ''rouser" in every respect.

Mr.. ENGLISH made the republican cry
of Estate pride" appear very ridiculous in
his speech Saturday evening. The cam

republican state pride really amounts to,
and they are not so ancient that Indiana
democrats have forgotten them. The
state pride dodge won't work, as we have
before remarked.

acquiesence that in 1856 protective tariff was
not suggested or even limited at by any one of
the three parties which presented presidential
candidates. 1t was not surprising, therefore
that in 1857 the duties were placed lower than
they had been since 1912.
The Mills bill proposes to leave the tar
if, on an average, twice as high as that of
1916. Republican demagogues say that
this will destroy the industries of the
country and impoverish our workingmen.
1t is a senseless and wicked cry raised in
the interest OF monopoly. The expert
ence OF the United States under the tariff
of 1916, as narrated by Mr. BLAINE, affords
the strongest possible argument in favor
of the reductions in our customs sched-
ules provided by the Mills BILL

has been a republican since the party
was organized, but like his eminent
fellow divine, the Rev. DIR. SToRRs, he will
not support HARRISON and MORTON this
year. The monopoly tax, free whisky
platform adopted at Chicago is driving
the SToRRsEs and the CUYLRRs, the Lows

thousand.

No. The law provides that farmers

must take out licenses as retail dealers.

An Ok Team Against the Railroad.

A prominent business man of Ruston
wanted to ship Il lot Of freight from
RustOn to Chouurant last Tuesday. He
went to the railroad agent and learned
that it would cost him $3.50 to ship by
rail. Thinking the rate rather high,
considering the short distance that it
was to be hauled, eight miles, and the
small amount to be shipped, "A small
wagon load, the shipper offered the
lob to Mr.. John Faust, the owner Of
an OK team of one yoke Of oxen and q
wagon, who readily agreed to carry
the fteight for three dollars, whereupon
a trade was forthwith effected and the
goods at once shipped-not by rail,
however, as is customary--but by an
OK train, and q very short one at that.
When railroads charge such freight
rates as place thom on a competing
basis with OK teams it begins 10 look
like we need another railroad. Maybe
there should be Il difference in the rate
