Five Reasons.

"I1eGse give me five good reasons why man
should he Republican, SAYS a correspondents
From the New York Tribune.
l. Because there Is everything in the rec
ord of the Republican party of which he
may be proud, and nothing of which he
will need to be ashamed. 1t saved the Union,
emancipated the slaves, restored specie pay
ments and reduced the national debt one
half Unlike the Democratic party, it has
never been in alliance with slaye-owners and
the rum power; it never pronounced the
war for the Union failure and sued for a
craven peace; aud il has never arrayed itself
against the principles Of honest finance
and national honor.
3 Because Republlcanism does not stand
for the suppression OF a single Democratic
vote in any State of the Union. In every
Republican State Democrats are free TO
vote as tlsey please. and their ballots are
counted a. they are east. Democracy stands
for the suppression Of Republican votes by
intimidation. crime and fraud in every State
formerly in rebellion.
3. Because the Republican party in lis tar
in legislation laid the foundations of nat
ional prosperity uneSampled in modern
times. and defends the cause of American
industry to-day against the combined attack
of English manufacturers and Free Trade
Democracy. The solid south in the Confed-
crate Constitution pronounced for Free Trade
precisely as the party of Buchanan, Breck-
enridge and Douglass had done before the
war, and as the party of Tilden, Hancock
and Cleveland has done since. Republi-
canisin is the cause of industrial independ-
ence
4. Becuse the Republican party is Ameri-
can in its sympathies AMI its policy believes
in governing and developing America for
the benefit of Americans, and would neither
order its tariff policy for the accom-
mediation and profit of foreigners. nor
lower the country in the estimation of the
world by surrendering American rights or
compromising American honor through pu-
sillanimous diplomacy. The Democratic

Cleveland Anti-Labor Record.

The only record that Grover Cleveland has
on the labor question is hostile TO working
men. Neither as Governor Of New York nor
as President has he ever shown the slightest
interest in or sympathy with labor or labor
ing men Two or three of his acts may be
cited
The pilots in New York Harbor are a
brave hardy and hard worked set of men.
Their vocation is dangerous. They so far
out to sea in light sailing craft, in all
kinds of weather, to meet and pilot ocean
steamers, and large vessels into harbor.
Their fees are regulated by law. Cleveland.
when Governor of New York, commend
ed that they be reduced. In message to
the Legislature he said II is the duty OF
the Legislature, in the interest of the State,
to reduce the wages Of of pilots in New York
50 that they will no be higher than at foreign
ports.n Why shonld fees of American
pilots be regulated 10y the foreign standard
That was the same spirit that would reduce
the wages OF all American abor TO the for
cign scale.
Asain, when the New York Legislature
passed bill in the interest of street car
drivers, reducing their working hours from
seventeen TO twelve hours a day, Gov
ernor Cleveland vetoed il saying: fail TO
see any good to be accomplished by the bill
besides, If the Legislature reduces the work
ing hours it ought 10 provide for the reduc-
ton of wages which it has failed TO do.
Not much sympathy with overworked men
/ in that. Twelve hours a day is too much
( for any man TO work, day in and day out, and
Z seventeen hours is outrageous. Governor
/ Cleveland could see no good to be accom-
/ plished by the bill His veto was in the in
/ interest of the company.
Again. the New York Legislature passed q
/ hill TO reduce the fare on the New York ele-
waited roads to five cents. a measure plainly
Z in the interest of the public, and especially
of workingmen. Governor Cleveland vetoed
it on the ground that it was violation o.
vested rights "a legal chestnut thai
serves when everything else fails
Mr. Cleveland is on record as absolutely
devoid of sympathy for workingmen.

Governor Porter Declines.

INDIANAPOLIS, July 29.-fIon. A. G. Por-
ter has reaf,irmed his determination to not
accept the Republican nomination for Gov
ernor of Indiana. much to the disappoint-
ment of many members of his party, who
were hopeful that he could De prevailed on
TO make the race. In fact, within the last
few days he had so tar yielded to the popu-
lar demand As to say that he would probably
accept the nomination if it should ne given
unanimously. Col. Robertson, one of the
leading candidates for the honor, declared
that he would not permit the nomination to
go to Porter by aoclamation, and an attempt
was made 10 show that the Ex-Governor was
acting in bad faith. 1t was this that caused
Governor Porter to at once declare that un-
der no circumstance would he now accept the
nomination. His determination has caused
decided political sensation, as his nomina-
ton was looked upon as definitely settled.
At the primary election, held last night,
the delegates In many wards were instructed
to vote for him, while previously - coun-
ties had adopted resolutions expressing the
desire that he should make the race a thing
that has generally been regarded as nothing
less than a political necessity. The men
seeking the nomination are I.ieuienant-Gov-
ernor Robertson, Warren q. Sayre, Speaker
of the Indiana House of Representatives, J.
y. Huston, Chairman of the State Central
Committee, Congressman Steele and Viii
Cum5ack. while Gen. Lew Wallace has also
been proposed.

The Tariff In the Senate.

WASHINGTON, July %. - The decision
reached by the conference of Republican
Senators at Mr.. Evarts's house last night
was the result of careful consideration after
free expression of opinion by nearly every
one present With the exception of 4 single
Senator, all were in favor OF the plan adopt
ed, and that one fellow readily yielded to the
Judgment of the majority. Such marked
unanimity is regarded as indicative of a
prompt report of the new bill to the Senate
The outlines of the measure will follow
closely the principles laid down in the plat
form adopted by the Chicago Convention.
1t will be a thoroughly protective meas
ure. 1t will reduce the revenues about S7J,-
10000. 1t Will accomplish this by cut in
the sugar duties o: 30 per cent. 10y removing
the Internal Revenue tax on alcohol and
spirits used in the manufactures and arts. and
by partially abolishing the laternal Revenue
tax on tobacco. In addition 10 this, it will
revise the different schedules, increasing du-
ties where absolute protection is necessary,
but reduce them wherever il can be done
with safety and without prejudice 10 Ameri-
can industries. The fact that the Republican
party has never shirked All issue and has al
ways pursued an affirmative and aggressive
policy was probably the chief motive
for the course adopted by the con-
ference last night. 1t is complete an
swer 10 the taunts and jeers W hich Demo
in the Senate for the last few days that they
dare not formulate measure of their own
or DO anything further than pursue policy
of obstruction and assume an attitude of ne
CATION.
The more immediate effect Of the decision
reached by the Republican Senators is heard
in the talk of a session prolonged into Sep
tember, and possibly October This is mere
ly speculation, however, and not borne out
by The unanimity with which Republicans
will support the measure, and which fore
shadows prompt disposition of the bill on
the part of the Senate The inevitable de-
lay in bringing the session to close is due
to the policy of procrastination pursued by
the Democratic House, and if the Senate. in
order to consider 80 important measure as
a tariff bill with care must consume, say a
month more, some compensation for this
fact may be found in the thought that
measure and policy will have been formu-
lated which must inspire the industries OF
the country with renewed confidence in
the thoroughly patriotic policy Of the Re
publican party Of protection and encourage
ment to American workingmen.

closely drawn. He was accompanied by DR..

case. While Mr.. Randall was feeble this
morning, owing TO the unusual exertions
consequent on his removal. his family is
well pleased with the continued improve
ment in his condition.

house at Castenea Mr. Randall is TO be cared
for, was in waiting with a large old-fashion-
ed. comfortable barouche, built several years
ago for her mother who was an invalid.
There were pillows provided for theeas and
comfort of the sick man. Two other car
riages were also at hand for Mr.. Randalrs
family and the few friends who accompan-
led them from the National Capital
