TARIFF For REVENUE.
Why the Terms Democrat and Free
Trader Are Synonymous.

Trader Are Synonymous.
BY general consent the Republican
party applies the term free trade to
the Democratic party, and, when
spoken of in connection with the tariff,
it is called the free trade party"
The Democrats object to this name,
and the greater portion of the Demo
cratic press protest against the appli-
cation OF the term. Let US see how
this is. In the first place no small fac
ton OF the Democratic party are free
traders, according to their own state
ments, and, when speaking for the
party, claim that the platform is much
more of a free trade platform than a
protection one. An analysis OF the
tariff plank of 1884, which was re-
affirmed at St. Louis, must be accepted
as the sentiment of the party regarding
the subject. There is but one material
point in that platform, for, regardless
of all that is said concerning labor and
wages, the essence OF the whole resOlu-
ton is found in the words: 1--WE de-
mand that Federal taxation shall be ex
clusively for public purposes. This
is simply another way of saying: "a
tariff for revenue only" which was the
language of the platform of 1880, or,
"we demand that all custOm-house tax
alton shall be only for revenue" which
was the language of 1876. "a tariff
for revenue only" or Exclusively for
public purposes, can not mean a
tariff for any thing else. 1t means
tariff for revenue only regardless of
every other consideration, for were
other objects considered it could not be
a tariff for revenue only or for public
purposes exclusively. "Only" or lex
clusively" can not mean more, and
revenue simply is all that is embraced
in the term. A tariff that does not
protect the interests for which it was
designed from foreign influences, is in
every material sense free trade. A
tariff for revenue only can not mean
protective tariff. Protection does not
enter into the idea of a revenue tariff
at all. 1t is no part of it, and if such
tariff would prove protective it would
be only accidental. Incidental pro-
lection is no protection. Any thing
that may or may not be. is not, and
the only protection that can be is di-
rect. The difference between the two
parties is, the Republicans demand pro-
lection as the prime factor of tariff,
while the Democrats demand revenue
as the only purpose of duties on i'm
ports. A revenue tariff can not be a
protective tariff, for the stimulus which
reduction of duties will give impor-
tation will make necessary so great a
reduction that the protective element
will entirely disappear, and its effect
be lost. When this is gone what have
we better than free tradee According
to the declarations of the party we do
not see why objections should be urged
to the term of free traders. Chicago

MY NEPHEW.
. daring litfIe desnnt. he

A daring little despot, he.
Just mark his mien majestic,
With autocratic sway. tho sweet,
He rules the realm domestic.
He sits serene, little king,
His tyranny It's kindly;
His little fist his sceptre =,
And we obey it blindly.
He says no word. but looks SO sage,
The wisest are his debtors:
And o the eye he has for Art.
And such a taste for letters:
So broa1 and catholic his mind,
He makes no narrow structures;
But tackles kindly to all sorts
OF Bibles, books and pictures.
A sense OF humor, too, he has;
IT'S fine TO see the fun shine
From out those big blue eyes. o he's
A blessed bit OF sunshine
Most captious critic tho you be,
You can't suggest correction;
You must admit he is A i
And absolute perfection.
A precious little paragon
Was ever such another:
Not on this earth, if you believe
His father and his mother.
And o he beams right royalty
On me when caress him,
And says. as plain as looks can say,
lie loves his suntie, bless him.

THE HARRISON STATES.
A Strong Column Which FoOts Up 254
Electoral Votes.

a Strong Column Which FOOts Up 254
Electoral Votes.
Benjamin Harrison will be the next
President. The States that were loyal
to the Union during the dark days of
rebellion will prove themselves still
true next November to the cause of
protection and prosperity and will
unite in driving this present retrogres-
sive Administration from the power it
obtained through fraud in 1884. Their
united electoral votes are more than
enough to elect the nominees of the
Chicago convention. Their verdict
will be hailed with JOY by all good Re-
publicans.

BALLOT REFORM.
The System OF Voting Adopted by the State
of Massachusetts.

Probably not one in a hundred of
readers ever had an opportunity to 90
serve an election in which the grossest
forms of corruption and fraud are
practiced. These evils are at the
worst in the sluns of great cities.
A voter approaches the polls through
a thrOng of rowdy ballot-distributors
and ''ward-heelers." He is beset by
these men who offer him tickets" and
follow him up until his vote has been
deposited. In many cases the ballots
they offer are fraudulent. For while
Republican Ticket" or Democratic
Ticket is conspicuously printed upon
the ballot, one or more names, perhaps
all the names, are different from those
of the actual candidates, and a person
casting one of these ballots votes for
men whom he does not wish to be
elected.
This is only one of the several evils
which have led to an agitation in favor
of the Australian system" of voting,
which, with notifications, is that en-
ployed in England and in Canada. At
least two States of the Union have now
adopted the principle, and laws to
change radically the method of voting
will 60 into effect as soon as the neces-
sary arrangements can be made. -.
The principle is, after all, very
simple one. All the ballots are printed.
not by parties, but by the State. and
they are all alike. Each ballot con-
tains the names OF all candidates NOM
mated, and the names are arranged in
alphabetical order. In order to vote
for candidate, the person puts cross
opposite that candidates name.
For example, in Massachusetts, the
Legislature of which State has passed
a law introducing this system, the bal
lot, or part of it, will look something
like this when it is ready to be voted:

THE WORLD OF SPORTS.

II never knew what a really wonoerfui player Jerry Denny is," said John Ward the other day, until played along side of him in Frisco this winter. say unre- servedly and without hesitation that he IS the greatest infielder living He never had an equal, and do not believe this country will ever produce another one hke nm. You cannot appreciate his wonderIul WorK until you play along side of hlm or with him on the same team for some tune. He is quick as cat, and his left hand Is just as good as his right. No matter how the ball is hit at him, if he gets either hand on it you can feel secure that the batsman is out. If the New Yorks had third baseman like him, we would nave won the pennant several times.
 The Hartfords defeated the Meridens by the score of 2 to B. Seeley and Mul Smith were fined for tripping.
 Wm H. Higgins, second baseman of the Water5urys of 1886, must have been sur prlsed the past few days by the number of telegrams he received from different parties inquiring whether or not the report was true that he had dropped dead on the street at Wilmington, Del. sHig' writes that he did not drop dead, but is anxiously wait ing for the, season to open when he will join his old friends, Joe Batten and Walk er at Syracuse.
 Hartford has won 27 out of the last B league games played.
 Arrangements are being perfected for a series of five games between the Hartfords and New Bedfords for the worlds cham pionship.
 Vaillant's conduct at the Meriden-New Havel ga ne Tuesday night, was ungentle manly, and the Meriden management has punished him by making Hanaford cap tain in his place.

They Will Urge Waterbury's Claim for

 Mayor H. I. Boughton, General s. w. Kellogg, E. c. Lewis, A. s. Chase aud Col J. B. Doherty left this morning for Wash ington where they will appear Friday morning before a sub co'nmitte on appro- priation, to present the claims of Water oury for public building for postoffice and other purposes. They took with them plenty of statistics and an abundance of evidence of the demands for better post office accommodation ill this city. The bill which is now before the committee is substantially as follows:
 Be it enacted, etc., That the secretary of the treasury be, and he is hereby author zed and directed to purchase or otherwise provide site, and cause to be erected thereon a substantial and commodious building with proof vaults, for the use and accommodation of the United States courts and postoffice and for other govern site and building thereon when completed upon plans and specifca- tion to be previously made and approved by the secretary of the treasury, shall not exceed in cost S150, 0,000; nor shall any site be purchased until estimates for the erec- tion of a building which will furnish suf- hcient accommodations for the transac- l tion of the public business, and which shall not exceed in cost the balance of the sum herein limited after the site shall have been purchased and paid for, shall have been approved by the secretary of the treasury; and no purchase of site, nor plans for said building, shall be approved by the secretary of the treasury involving an expenditure exceeding the said sum Of $15O, ,OOO for site and building; and the site purchased shall leave the building un- exposed to fire by an open space of at least 20 feet, including streets and alleys: Provided, That no part of said sum shall be expended until a valid title to the said site shall be vested in the United States, nor until the state shall cede to the United States exclusive jurisdiction over the same, during the time the United States shall be or remain the owner thereof, fol all purposes except the administration o1 the criminal laws of said state and the ser vice of civil process therein D
