TRADE WITH SOUTH AMERICA.
The Republieans of Henry County, Indiana, to
the number Of about eleven hundred PAID their
respects to General Harrison last week. Among
The banners carried by the Newcastle contin-
gent were such notices as England can't vote
ct the coming election, and Ihe on'y use
England has for the Irish is to vote for free
trade in Amerca.-London Times" Gen. Har-
rison received the delegation at the University
Park. The spokesman for the visitors was Gen.
William Crosse, of New uatle, a eomrade OF Gen.
Harrison In the CO Ipaign around Atlanta.
Gen Harrison spok' ON n new subject when he
touched upon our commercial relations with
South America, and dvocated ths SUBSCRIBING
of steamship liiies t, the South and Central
American States. In Il course OF his remarks
the General taid
IN all the add esses W. ich have been made to
me there has be- 81 ne reference to the great
question of the protection of our American in
dustries l it upon the banners which you
carry. Our party stands unequ ,yocaily, with
out evasion or qualification, for the doctrine
that the American market shall be preserved
for our American producers. We are not at
tracted by the suggestion that we should sur
render to foreign producers the best market in
the world. Our sixty millions of pespe are tho
best BUYERS in the world and they are such be-
cause our working classes receive the best wages.
But do not mean to le content with our own
market. We should seek to promote closer and
more friendly commercial relations with the
Central and South American States. Regular
mails are the first conditions of commerce. The
merchant must know when his order will be re-
ceived and when his consignment will be re-
turned, or there can be no trade between distant
communities. What we need therefore, is the
establishment of American steamship lines be-
tween our ports and the porte of Central and
South America. Then it will no longer be heces-
sary that an American minister, commissioned
to an American state. shall take All English
ship to Liverpool to find another English ship to
carry him TO his destination. We are not to be
frightened by the use Of that ugly word sub
sidy.' We should pay TO American steamship
lines liberal compensation for carrying our
mails instead of turning them over to British
tramp steam ships
TIRE LABOR QUESTION
Speaking of the labor question Gov Harrison
said, i'll his address to the Clay County miners ::
Some resort to statistics to show That the
condition of the American workman is better
than that of the workmen of any other country,
| do not care now to deal with statistics. Une
fact is enough for me. The tide of immigfatioh
from all European countries has Been and is
toward our shores. The gates of Castle Garden
swing Inward. They do not swing outward 20
