We appeal to the statistics for con
hrmation of the protective theory:
Greater growth under Protection

Secretary J. Sloat Fassett, of the Re
publican National Committee, gives his
views of the political situation as it ap
pears to the committee. He says:
"The outlook for Republican success
this tall is growing brighter daily. The
unmistakable position which the Re
publican party has taken on the tariff
question has drawn to US the sympathy
and support of all who are interested
in maintaining American industries ard
American wages. The result of this
campaign is gong to be decided by
the men who carry the dinner pals, and
they are not going to vote to please the
members of the Golden Club. With
them 1t is matter of bread and butter.
When the American workingmen are
called on to choose between American
wages and European wages, between
the home and the saloon, there Is no
doubt what his choice will be, and we
are brought to just that issue in the
state of New York this fall. So the
political situation is one we'll calculated
to give encouragement to all Republi-
cans, and to act as a stimulus to those
who have the welfare and success OF
the Republican party and OF the coun
try at heart to put forth their best exer-
tons from now until election day to
keep everything in as good shape as it
is now"

Rally Republicans!

As will be seen by the call published
in another column, Senator VIM. +.
FRYE of Maine, is expected in Elkton
on Saturday evening and will speak or
the Tariff at Odd Fellows Hall. The
Republicans of this county we think
owe Mr.. Creswell vote of thanks for
securing SO able speaker as Senator
Frye. He has been a lifelong studen!
OF the economic questions involved in
the present campaign, besides having
had opportunities afforded him by tor,
eign travel and observation, to compare
the condition of the workingmen of this
country under protective system, with
that of tree trade countries. Upon the
question of protection as it effects the
employment and wages of American
workingmen, probably no man in the
country is better equipped than the Sen
ator, and which his published speeches
already delivered in this campaign so
amply testify. 1t is therefore but rea-
sonable to expect from him, states
man-Hke and able presentation of the
issues of the campaign, and that every
class of our citizens will gladly avail
themselves of this opportunity to hear
sat home" speaker of national repu,
tation. To Republicans the presence
of Senator Frye in Elkton should be
especially gratifying, coming as he does
from a state which has so recently gwen
such convincing proof of its devotion
to the great and Eenshcent system OF
Protection to American Industries. We
expec: to see ''rouslng" meeting on
Saturday night, and one which will
show by its spirit and enthusiasm, that
the Republicans of Maryland no less
than their political brethren of Maine,
are keenly alive to the importance OF
the issue upon which they will vote in
November.

tiCe that on
THURSDAY, OCTOBER 18th.
there will be held at ElktCn a Harrison

trict in the county is requested to send

All the delegations from the several
districts will De formed into one general
procession after arriving at EIkton and
will parade through the town. The
Republicans Of each district will have

ample time to make their arrangements,

Harrison and Morton Club in the
county will receive from the under

Our readers will notice that ladies
are especially invited to hear Senator
Frye on Saturday night at Odd Fellows
Hall. We hope to see number OF
them present, because we believe that
the tone and character of all political
gatherings would be elevated and i'm,
proved by their presence. In the
North and West when voter whatever
his social position attends political
meeting he takes his wife and daughters
with him. Comfortably seated in d
well-lighted hall they listen to campaign
speakers upon whom the presence Of
ladies in very many instances acts as a
wholesome restraint. 1t would be a
very desirable innovation upon old po-
litical customs to adopt in Maryland.

If there is one man in America who
more than another should be an out
spoken ADVOCATE of protection and
home rule, that man is an Irishman. 1t
is not surprising therefore that the defec-
tons from the ranks of Irish Democrats
should be surprisingly large. Accounts
from every section of the country where
the Irish population is large show this.
A conspicuous instance this week is that
of Mr.. James Doherty, an Irish Amer
can OF Chester, Pa, who gave his rea-
sons for changing from revenue re-
form" to protection in letter to the
Chester Times of Wednesday. Among
the other reasons he gives the following
which no one, not even a tree trade
editor, will attempt to refute. He says
Every one must admit that no nation
has advanced as much in the last
twenty flve years as the United States.
We with our tariff laws have been 60
ing forward, while free trade countries
have gone backward. | warn my
countrymen, the Irish emigrants and
their sons, to beware of the false prophet
who will meet you In this campaign
and not believe his plausible theories.
say to my brother Irishmen, look back
and reflect on the ruin and desolation
brought on your fathers homesteads by
the prosecutions of free trade England
the same government that is now dog
ging your footsteps to this country and
wants to ruin your peaceful American
home by securing the enactment of the
same laws that ended your prosperit,

ECRETARIES,

1t is about time that some of our
local Democratic orators and editors
should explain away the especially dis
tinctive southern and sectional aspects
OF the Mills bill which they make the
ground of their political faith. Fol
instance the cotton planters at the south
! buy iron cotton ties for three or five
cents pound, and after baling the cot
ton sell it, ties, bagging, cotton, and al
at eight to twelve cents pound. Yet
these cotton growers demand that theil
ties shall be put upon the free list, be
cause the tariff is SO terribly oppressive
| And what is more the Mills bill has
been framed in their interest, as its
provisions will shown, viz:
Louisiana sugar ....6S per cent. duty
Southern rice. ..IooR per cent. duty
Northern lumber. mo duty
Northern wool. no duty
| \ orthern salt. no duty
Northern beans and peas. ...no duty
Northern vegetables. ........no duty
Northern fax, undressed. mo duty
Northern lime. no duty
Is any further evidence nee ded o.
the sectional character of the Mills bill

For the year ending Iune 30.

For the year ending June 80, 'S6,
more than SEC, 900, 900 of manufactured
cotton goods were imported into this
country and more than $40, 100000 CT
wooden goods. If we could control
our own market for these goods every
idle operative in the land would have
steady work and good wages. 1t will
be time for US to reach out for the
"markets of the world" when our own
markets have become too small for US.

Mr.. Herman Stump in his speech at
the Odd Fellows Hall on Wednesday
evening, like all other free trade orators,
was very loud and long in his denuncia-
ton OF trusts, pools, and combinations
of capitalists as the direct outcome OF a
protective tariff. Now MIR. Stump ought
TO know, but it seems that he does not,
that next to the combination that con-
trolls the supply OF sugar, the most
odious Trust in this country is the An
thracite Coal Combination, which an
nually decides just how much coal
shall be mined and what shall be charged
for it, thus preventing all competition.
There is no + riff on anthracite coal.
Next in infamy comes the Standard OH
Company. There is no Tariff on coal
oil. The cotton seed oil Trust walks
closely in the footsteps OF the Standard
There Is no Tariff on Gotten seed oil
Now comes along a new rice Trust and
every one is familiar with the operations
OF the Whiskey Trust. OF all the great
Trusts that interfere with business and
prevent competition, the sugar Trust
and the new rice Trust are the only
ones that owe their being to the Tariff
These two Trusts could be instantly
destroyed by the adoption of the Re
publican policy, but the Democrats re
fuse. The only points at which the
Tariff assists in the creation of Trusts
are the points at which the Democrats
insist that it shall not be touched
The Trusts are fertile source of Dem
ocratic buncombe, but the people art
growing tired OF it.
