Senator Turpie on General Harrison.

Senator Turpie delivered strong tariff
reform speech in the Senate Monday, taking
TOR his text the Presidents message to Con
gress, which has now served as q text or
pretext for 30 many set speeches on both
sides OF the question. The Senator subjected
Gen. Harrison, the Republican candidate for
the Presidency, and gentleman from his
own State, to rather severe criticism.
In the course of his speech he said that
there was an eternal Jeremaid concerning
the pauper labor of Europe; and yet the
American farmers and planters had been for
many years competing with the pauper labor
of Europe, Asia and Africa. The existing
policy OF so-called protection had forced that
competition. What, he asked, had cheap.
ened and pauperized labor in India, Egypt,
China or elsewhere? 1t was long ages of
commercial restriction and repression, the
entire inhibition of foreign traffic, constant
seclusion and isolation of manufacturers,
an exclusively internal consumption both
OF work and wares that produced dry rot
and marasmus. And yet 1t was seriously
proposed that the young American nation
should receive its lessons in political econ
omy and the practical rules OF its revenue
administration from the archaic and moul-
dering systems of the Mkado and the man
DARN. Protection was good servant, but
bad master. Over-protection led to over
production, and to consequent stagnation
and decay. 1t could not be shown that any
person or corporation who was engaged in
good faith in the business of manufacturing
would be injured by the reasonable reduc-
ton of duties proposed in the Mills bill, or
that any employe would be harmed. The
emancipation of labor from the operation of
unjust laws, the liberation of agriculture,
commerce and manufactures from inequita-
M fNn rictas snY ohr;ot tl,.ar
tion OF the people to their ancient CONNER
cial rights and franchises-it was this that
was proposed by the message of the Presi-
dent.
The contamination of this would not be
retarded or prevented by the action of the
Chicago convention = and the
nominee GA'sat convention were, alike, ex.
ponents of the views and interests of those
privileged castes, which had SO long, under
the loud and false clamor OF protecting
others, cared only for themselves; who had
learned nothing of popular interests except
to betray them. The candidate of the Chi
cago convention was beloved and
chosen representative of the rank and law
less growth of incorporated power. He
would faithfully befriend, protect and en-
courage American industries by the highest,
most prohibitory and unnecessary restrc.
tons, and by the permitted immigration of
the Chinaman. Although he was man of
no inconsiderable capacity, of great mental
force and acumen, he had that which was
not often found with such qualities-a harsh
Intolerance which treated dissent as idiocy
deeply touched and tinged with the preju-
dices of an exclusive class afistocracy, he
belonged to that group of reactionary states
men traditional paternalists) whom the peo-
pie had so often rejected, and would reject
again.

OF WASHINGTON COUNTY
DOWN TO WORK.

II is now evident that real work between
the two great parties must soon begin
Neither the hundred manner of grandiathers
dition, nor worthy sophistries will or can
effect this trip. 1t is now plain matter Of
business before the American people con
cerning taxation the most vital Of all sub
jects with which the government has To deal.
That the people are ridden with an enor-
nous war tax that levies upon the property
OF every producer in the land 10 times Of
profound peace is well understood. That
this tax is not only unnecessary, but is
piling up surplus TO menace legislative
purity, while large sections of the country
are punched for available currency, is also
well understood.
This is condition of things which Gen.
Harrison's great grandfather is powerless to
mitigate. He did his work nobly and well
in his day and generation, but the present
is the grandchlld, and Mr. Blaine's openin e
act Of necromancy in directing the public
eye towards the old gentleman who was
contemporaneous with Tecumseh will not
avail. There are some practical questions
involving plain business common sense
which must be met and answered, not by
ancestral proxy, however distinguished, but
by an appeal TO hard facts and simple jus.
tice.
Nor will it do to charge the burdens
which bear upon eight millions of farmers
TO the necessities of less than four millions
Of workingmen engaged in manufactur.
ing pursuits. These farmers are working.

mechanics will he willing to be made the

men 10 get down a few plain questions for
MIR. Blaine and the honored grandchild Of
Tippecauoe 10 answer when they come
along. Such as suggest themselves for the
moment are; Why do labor statistics show
nearly million OF highly protected aborers
To have been out OF work this year? Why
are highly protected Pennsylvania laborers
working for so cents day, and children
from 10 10 years picking slate 10 the coal
mnesy Why are wages under high protec.
tive tariff in Italy and Germany about one.
hall what they are in "free trade" England?
Why is u blanket, which is necessity, taxed
about three times as high as Il piece of lace,
which is d luxury? Why under our highly
protective tariff is only IL instead of 80 per
cent. Of our commerce, us u old, carried on
by American shipi
These and many similar questions will
come up by and-by. They must be an.
swered fairly and squsrely within the
next few months, or the Republican party
stands committed To u policy of taxation
which. for severity and inconsistency, has
never been equsled.
Sophistry. fiattery and an appeal To the
ancestral glories Of the candidate will not
work The Republican party can no longer
live on its traditions. 1t must defend its
policy on the plain facts Of the situation or
remain IA the cold shade OF opposition for

In dispatch which we printed yester.
day. twas reported on pretty good authority
that the noble old Roman of the red ban
danna and the trumpet. .tongued orator would
| show the Republicans whether or not he was
played out by delivering several campaign
speeches in OHIO and Indiana. This is pleas
ing news, first class news, tt to be proclaim
I'd from the mountain tops, and sure to
strengthen the swelling spirits of the De.
mocracy. His public appearances will be
triumphs; his speeches will be events. He
will rise to the occasion, and carry up the
people along with him.
But, if the old Roman is to speak in Ohio
and Indiana, we must have--must is the
word-a speech from him here in New
York during the campaign. He would stir
up our citizens as no other Democrat in the
country could. He would insure New
York for the ticket upon which his name
shines, If insurance is needed. This State
is to be the great battlefield of the campaign,
and the influence of the enthusiasm sure to
he raised here by his presence and voice
would be felt to the outermost bounds of
the country. Perhaps it would be best for
the old Roman TO give us speech here be-
fore he enters upon his work in Ohio and
Indiana, but that is question to be de-
cided by himself Anyhow, let us hear him
in New York.-N Y. Sun of Monday.

/. LET us Be MORAL

IL is recorded by that veracious historian
OF his life and adventures that Mr.. Peck
sniff was moral man, a grave man, man
Of noble sentiments and speech. In accord.
ance with these principles he chrstened one
daughter Mercy and the other Charity His
very throat was moral. He boasted that his
conscience was his bank, and when he got
drunk, as he did on some occasions, he
would say "Let US improve our minds by
mutual inquiry and discussion. Let US be
moral. Let us contemplate existence"
In the Republican convention, recently
held, the country has been treated to an ex :
hibition of Pecksniff. After adopting tn e
most scandalously profigate platform ever
enunciated by any party, in which it put
itself on record as in favor of free whiskey
and high priced clothing, of free tobacco
and taxed blankets, it wound up by saying
"Let US be moral. Let us contemplate vir-
tue At the close of the proceedings the
following resolution was adopted "We re-
affirm our answering devotion to the per-
sonal rights and liberties of the citizen
The first concern of all good government
is the virtue and sobriety of the people and
the purity of the home. The Republican
party cordially sympathizes with all wise
and well directed efforts for the promotion
Of temperance and morality"
Was there ever in all the world anything
more hypocritical than this? Whiskey was
brought down to the price of three cents a
drink in those good old. hard cider and log
cabin days, and man could get drunk on
a very little change
Let US have free whiskey, brethren, but
let US be moral Let us promote virtue and
sobriety, but let~us have rum cheap, that the
poor maR(can have aiiir thai that ne wants.
Every one knows what denunciations
would have been thundered from the pulpit
had the Democrats adopted any such plat
form. 1t is somewhat curious now to note
what excuses the brethren will make for not
denouncing this Will the Pecksniffian saw
ing resolution sugar it overY Very likely.
For while they vote free whiskey they can
eloquently preach, in the language Of Dick
ems great master piece Of hypocrisy-"Let
us be moral !"
