POLITICAL POINTERS.

pO6UuICA6 pOUW eWSs Senator Evarts will be one of the prominent speakers m West Virginia this year.
 A remarkable eccentricity of the cam paign is the formation of . Harrison, Morton and Hill club in Rochester, N. ".
 There are three large organizations among the Irish-AmericAns of New York city, working tor the republican ticket.
 Edward Murphy, son of Frances Mur- phy, the weILknown temperance orator, will take the stump for Harrison and Morton in Indiana.
 President Green, of the Western Union Telegraph Company is said to have subscribed $Io.ooo to the demo- cratic campaign fund,
 There are now I,zoo republican clubs in the state of New York, with mem- bershlp of 200, 900. The effect of this strong organization will be felt in Mo- vember.
 General Harrison expressed the con vic,lOn of all true believers In the pro- tectIve system when he said that the tariff should be revised not by its ene- mics but by its friends. The Home Market Club of Boston had membership of Boo when Senator Sherman was given dinner in that city last February; now it has membership of 1900 and IS steadily increasing.
 Senator Riddleberger will be put for ward for nomination for Congress from the Seventeenth Virginia Congressional district by his republican friends. His term in the United States Senate expires next March.
 Twelve years ago General Grant. made prophecy which will D" falilled in November next !.e said: "When the dem"c-a.iI party comes near to com rirte control of the country it will break its back across the Alleghany mountains on the tariff question. Patterson Press.
 Vedder C. Reynols, chairman of the Democratic County Central Committee residing at Salamanca: IN. Y.. announced at republican meeting recently that he would resign his chairmanship and support Harrison and Morton. He IS one of the most influential men m bis county.
 The fact that the Malone and the anti ti-Mahones, Of Virginia, have made friends has caused the republicans to coun, very hopefully on carrying that state this year. In the congressional elections of 1886, the republican major ity in the state was more than I9, 900. Why not the same this yeas.
 Mir. Blaine hit the free trade target a center shCt when he called attention to the fact that the working people of the small state of Massachusetts have more money on deposit in their savings banks than all the mill ons of working people of England, Ireland, Scotland and Wales have been able to lay by under free rade policy.
 Thirty years ago the present solid democracy called them Triggers" and bought and sold them in the open mar- ket as cattle, and few years thereafter attempted by the sword to destroy the union and bind the chains of slavery more securely. Now the great monopo- list agent of the same party, MT. Brice, informs the public that he has hired some half dozen "great colored ora tors" from Georgia. North Carolins and Virginia, 'to proceed to Indiana and to remain until the campaign closes" and enlighten ignorant Hoosiers upon pro- hibition. Verify, 'the world do move"

market. If she succeeds. every working man and working woman in this country will be brought to comparative poverty. You can't help losing the high wages you now receive If you retain any work at all against the competition of the pauper paid labor of England you will be com pelled by that competition to accept as wages precisely that pauper pay. Then perhaps, you will love England more than you do now.-N. Y. Sun.

No sooner had they turned away than
