Republicaus who bolt" the position oil

The Chicago Tribune, the leading RePub'

The St. Paul Pioneer Press, the leading
Republican newspaper in the northwest
The Providence Journal, the only large
Republican newspaper in Rhode Island.
The Hon. W. s. ALLISON, United State
Senator from Iowa, a candidate lor the ke-
publican nomination for President, who
saws, The party which fails to 10 itsshare
in reducing the tauG will lose IN
popular favor
The Hon. DWIGHT NJ. SABIN, United
States Senator from Minnesota, who iayors
the reduction Of the tariff on steel rails
and SUGAR aud the abolition OF the tariti
tax ON lumber aud salt.
The Hon. HUGH McCULLocH, the last
Republican Secretary Of the Treasury, who
in his last report recommended,

materials, which are 10 he used IN manu-
Eacturss. should be removed.

The petty political war that is yet be-
ing Saged by the Republican high tax
managers against Mr.. CARLISLE IN the
THOEBE matter, is very small indeed 1t
is q piece with the game of small politics
which the Republican monopoly tax man
ayers have played from the first in this
matter, always debating TO Mr.. CARLIsLE
what they, with a pretense of sincerity,
declared to be the part Of honor. AT first
they were loud in their declarations thai
no man would h~Onorably take theSpeakers
chair while a contest for his seat was
pending. This being easily settled By
precedent they fell back on the assumP-
ton that no man of honor Gun rest salts
fed without an investigation OF every tool
ish claim that is brought against his right.
The purpose of all this is plain now as IN
deed it was at the start; although the idea
in the later development Of the Republican
plan is not so much opposition to Mt.
CARLISLE, since no reasonable man places
apy belief in the rabricati ons with which
SYPHER sought to bolster up the cause OF
his client, as the gain OF some party capt.
tai with the labor vote which is said To
have been behind THOEBE.

In the log cabin days of the early set,
tiers in the Northern States the all-nign'
dance was a common feature OF social lie,
and old and young, for miles around, were
participants. They were q hardy race
perhaps because they enjoyed themselves,
took plenty OF exercise and but little meni

cause they found medicine for their simple
ailments in natures remedies, the roots
and herbs of nearby fields and forests
which cured them and lett no alter III

The people OF to-day might be more rug

have recourse to natures remedies, instead
of mineral drugs. With a purpose Of CIV

The apparent falling off in 1856 is prob
ably due TO the confused and conflicting
instructions TO the assessors, and it Is not
probable that there was any actual dimin-
ution in the number of sheep in the State
that year.
At the recent conference Of wool growers
and wool manufacturers in Washington
City, a compromise was sgreed upon by
which all parties consent to demand OF
Congress q return to the tariff Of 1867
Now, is it not fairly deducible from the
above figures that, ii the tariff upon wool
has any effect upon the number Of sheep IN
West Virginia at all, our flOcks will again
dwindle and diminish as they did while
that tariff was formerly in force? In this
instance protection did not protect.
Now look at the figures relating to the
number of horses, mules and cattle In
West Virginia during the period covered
by the above table. Horses and cattle are
rot protected by any tariff at all. No
legislative attempt has been made to render
the raising OF horses and cattle ~protitableln
West Virginia, and yet, strange rs 1t may
appear when We remember the fate OF the
protected sheep, the number of horses AMI
cattle has steadlIy increased. Here are the
figures at intervals Of five years:

To ne Eiicr Of n, E,yEtsr:
NEW MARrINSvILLE. WETZEL Co w.
VA, January - The candidacy of our
fellow ritlzeu, M-. A. V. Mcdonnell, for
the office of Auditor for the State having
the appreciation OF the Democracy of his
native county, would seem to be, in a gen.
eral sense, To those we'll acquainted with
said Democracy and Mr.. Mcdonnell,
highly appropriate, if not, indeed, a most
happy occurrence, because, with the posi-
ton which the county of Wetzel holds in
the heart Of the Democracy Of the State
the eminent capability and general good
qualities OF the candidate, added to the
facts that the manly spirit OF fair play"
always prominent "a Democrats, must ac-
knowledge the many points due Mr.. Me
DOuneil and the gallant county which he
will represent in the Convention Of the
Democracy of the State, and TO aCknowl-
edge, will he out TO reward.
Mr.. MCDOnnelps political convictions
have always made him q Democrat of DEM
Gratis and although his counsel and contri-
buttons 10 party defeuces have always been
wise and liberal, he has never allowed his
name to go before his fellow citizens for
public office, and indeed | do not now
know such to he the case, except from the
mouths OF his fellow citizens; but | wish
to tender a tribute in an humble way, to
mis- sterling worth to his party.
Mr.. Mcdonnell is an active young Dus'
messed man, possessed Of unusual business
capacity, and n fine scholar; has all the
open, genial hearty ways characteristic OF
the race from which he desccEds.
In conclusion, | beg leave TO assure my
fellow citizens OF the state that his would
be a strong name on the State ticket, and
most ardently hope as do the peO-
pie of Wetzel generally, that he will be
placed upon the ticket OF the grand old
Democratic party.

reached its highest point in ISL, after the

In view of the cutlery which som OF our

on wool be lowered, here are a few figures
which seem to need explanation. Prob
ably the protection afforded to wool grow
ers by the tariff may not result elsewhere

which steadily declined under the tariff OF
