Possibly some of our readers may be in
clined to think that the Republican news
papers make too much ado about the Of
forts and wishes of the Golden Club. But
the facts fully Justify what true Ameri-
cans are saying against this powerful
British organization. G.. W. Smallcy,
many years the able correspondent of the
y. Y. Tribune. residing in England, tele-
graphs the following to that paper;
The Golden Club are trying to raise a
large sum of money to be spent in further
Free Trade propaganda, especially in spread
ing broadcast pamphlets and other Golden
Club literature. Lord Brassey has given a
thousand dollars others less, and the hat is
going round 1t is long since the club have
been so active. There can be little doubt
that their surplus funds are intended as REIN
forcements for Mr.. Cleveland in his effort to
hand over the control of American markets to
British traders"

senator John T. Morgan. of Alabama,
who addressed the Free Traders at their
recent Boston banquet, desires re-elec-
ton. lie deems it expedient to avow his
Calhoun tariff doctrines. so as To thorough
ly stir up the Democrats in the cotton
districts of his State SO as to make sure OF
their votes. knowing that the manufacture
ing and iron interests of Alabama are more
local. and much less extended than cotton
raising. His competitor for Senatorial
honors is Governor Seng. the candidate OF
the Proteetionists. Thus the heresieS OF
John c. Calhoun encounter the resisting
force of the national principles of Henry
Clay in the South.

the Philadelphia Ledger, a gentleman

clothing house in Philadelphia what effect

piled that "hc would go to Europe at once,
establish factories for making his supplies
over there and import every suit of clothes
that he sold. Now that firm employs
hundreds Of tailors and hands in Phila-
