The new North-west., 1888-10-12

WE declare our opposition to all combi.
nations Of capital organized in trusts or
otherwise to control arbitrarily the condi-
tion Of trade among our citizens, and we
recommend to Congress and the State Legis.
latures, in their respective jurisdictions,
such legislation as will prevent the execu.
ton ofall schemes to oppress the people by
undue charges on their supplies, or by un-
just rates for the transportation of these pro-
ducts TO market. - Republican National
Platform, 1888.
Mr.. EDWARD 81. Moore, Republican eau
didate for Sheriff, was in town last Saturday
making and renewing acquaintances and
converslng with them incidentally on Cam.
paign topics. Mr.. Moore has been resident
of Anaconda and Granite for some years,
and is vouched for by those who know him
best as an A No. man possessing most ex
cellent character and qualifications that will
make him first-class Sheriff. Republicans
of the County will find him q candidate
worthy of their cordial support.

THE SENATE TARIFF BILL.

The Senate finance committees substitute
for the House tariff bill, mentioned last
week, has been presented to the Senate with
the majority and minority report, and is now
before that body for discussion. It formu-
lates the purposes declared by the Republi-
can party and promised in its platform unan-
imously adopted a. Chicago, June 81, 1888,
viz:
"We are uncompromisingly in favor of
the American system of Protection we pro.
test against its destruction as proposed by the
President and his party. They serve the in
terests of Europe; we will support the
interests Of Amer,ca. We accept the issue
their judgment. The Pro:sctive system
must be maintained. Its abandonment has
always been followed by general disaster to
all interests except those of the usurer and
the Sheriff. We denounce the Mills Bill as
destructive to the general business. the labor
and the farming interests of the country,
and we heartily endorse the consistent and
patriotic action of the Republican represen-
tatives in Congress in opposing its passage.
We condemn the proposition Of the Dem
and we insist that the duties thereon shall be
adjusted and mai intained SO as to furnish full
and adequate protection to that industry
the United States.
The Republican partv would effect all
needed reduction of the National revenue
BY repeating the taxes on tobacco, which are
an annoyance and burden to agriculture, and
the tax upon spirits used in the arts and for
purposes; and by such revision
Of the tariff laws as will tend to check i'm
ports Of such articles as are produced by our
people, the production of which gives en-
ployment to our labor, aud release from i'm
port duties those articles of foreign produc- |
lion Except iuxuries) the like of which |
cannot be produced at home. If there shall |
'till remain a larger revenue than is requi- |
,ite for the wants Of the Government, we |
Favor the entire repeal of internal taxes
'ather than surrender any part of our Pro-
whisky trusts and the agents of foreign man. |

MERIDIAN is making an effort to
get the Gar factory established
there. The business men OF the
city have caused Mr.. ID. L.. Mitchell,
of New Orleans, to visit Meridian.
Well, Mitchell got there, and the
meeting was held and a committee
was appointed to see what could be
done in the way OF stock donations,
etc. A vote Of thanks was tender
ed Mr.. Mitchell aud he went away

ment received at the hands of the

Politicians Quite at Sea as to the Out
come of the Campaign.
iCoppig. 1898, BY the California associated Pressl
WASHINGTON, July 29th.-The political
prophets of the Capital land their name is
legion) are beginning to realize how risky
thing it is to attempt to forecast the re-
suit OF the coming election. There proba-
bly, never was time before when the re-
suit of g Presidential election was so much
in doubt. That the election will be de-
cided almost wholly on the tariff issue
everyone seems to agree. AS it is an issue
as yet untried, it is well nigh impossible to
form conclusion of value regarding the
outcome. In addition to the uncertainty
of following a stralght-out tariff fight,
there is the Prohibition vote, the exact
strength of which no one seems in posi-
tion 10 estimate. That the vote will be an
unusually large one, is admitted III the
Northern States the Prohibitionists will
draw greatly from the ranks of the Repub-
licans while in the South the case will be
reversed, and the Democrats will be the
losers.
Speaking about this vote in the South
Representative Nichols of North Carolina
says: The campaign in the North State
is already in full blast, though the cleo
ton does not come off until November.
We have big State to go over, and not as
malay railroads SIS you have in the North,
SO i taxes longer to get to campaigning.
From the present outlook, l am inclined 10
believe that the Prohibitionists will poll q
vote tha! viii be sad surprise TO the
Democrats, from whose party they will
draw nearly all their vote. The outlook in
my State for Republican success is really
very encouraging, and l believe there is q
good square chance of their carrying The
State. The Prohibition candidate tor Gov
ernor is strong one, and he will poll q
large vote in the middle counties, where il
will cOuDt moSt .
