 Answering the Republican asser tion that the Mills blll discrimin- atcs In favor of the South, the Cour. ier-Journal Dem quotes Congress man Breekinrid9e to the effect that "S0ear has been cut nearly twice as deep as any schedule on the tar If. One Southern State produced it. Lumber is q large Southern ln- terest, and cotton seed oil is a large Southern industry. Wool i8a grow ing Southern interest. It is, how ever a slgn of weakness in the pro- -tectionists when they resort to the sectional dodge in defence ofa wick ed system ,
 The Philadelphia Times (Ind9 notes a disturbed feeling among some of the papers that are support ing Harrison on an anti-Bialne platform The trouble Is due to the sqbordinatlotion of the candI dates to the "GHerowned King" Says the Times. ''It is d twnIng upon them that Blaine is the mas ter of the party in the campaign, as he was in the convention, and that he would be it's master in the ad- mInistration if Harrison should chance to be elected But this was just as evident from the beginning as 1t is nov. You will never get rid ot Blaine by supporting Blalne's candidates"
 Tie Chicago Herald (Dem.) has hope ot carrying Michigan. It finds that Gov. Luce who will again run for the chief office, made the race two years ago with 7,429 plurality, agalnst fusion of Democrats and Greenbackers, and a growing Pro hibition vote of 9, ,174, He has q minority grasp on his State of bat 1T per cent. like the robher taiff which he supports. With anything like ! strong canvass of reform m Michigan, the high taNefs eoald be put to rout. Gles eland, in 1881, boiled S.00a more votes than Luce won on in 1886, and the Prohlbi- tonsts had but 5,o37 ballots in the Cleveland campaign.
 Hmper's Weekly (ina.) expects that Mr. Rlaire's arrival will infuse greater activity into the campaign. It says: sJlc returns as much the acknowledged chief and leader of his party as Mir. Clay Of the Nhigs during the Harrison campa5ga ot l840. N5r do We see in the ReP"b hean ranks any leader to take to- ward Mr. Blaine the attitude of riv- airy whiea among the Wings Mir. Webster held to Mr. Clay. Itis al- ready announced that Mr. Blaine will be Secretary Of State in the event of Gen. Harrisen's election. an announcement which is not hade less probable by the assertion also made that Gen Harrison would be the ohlof of his administration, an assertion which implies q feeling that there is some question upon the polnt.
 Says tho Chieaso Globe (Den ). ''The monopoly trust party of Mich igan arraign the Democratic Con- gress for attempting to strike . blow at the industries ot the coan- try. The blow, aimed not at the industries, hut at the wartariff hga- ture that k choking the industries to death, averages hardly one-half of the tariff reduction that was uf- gently recommended by Lincoln, Grant, Garfield, Arthur, Allison and other pubIlc men whom the Michigan tariff-trust gentry have heretofore preteaded to hold jn flgh favor. Thclr arraignment of the Democratic Congress is doubly an arraignment of afl ther own presidents, excepting Hayes, for at. tempting to strike a heavier blow at the industries, etc.
