We may remark that the confidence Of
the average West Virginia Republican be-
iore Al election in the ability OF his party
TO cary the State, is only excelled in the
sGSgTin over his
NY -Tttelt after the voted are counted.
lie Is not TO blame for this, however. The
idea tlat tie Republican parry Is about 10
triumph oygs its Democratic opponent IS at

political situation o. which they can hang
q shrei OF hope Is ever neglected in the
effort TO convince their partissn5 that they
are at last about to overcome the Demo

this ray be found in the TACT that
TIE Radical leaders recognize that
the 9. o D. can't fight q losing battle.

Talk about reducing the tariff duties on
woolen goods, and the WOO len manufac.
turer is up in arms at once crying aloud
that his business IL to be ruined. So when
you talk about reducing the duty on coal
Lumber, wool, salt, iron and all other in
dustrial products the manufacturers OF
these products howl about running their
business. From this 1t will clearly be seen
that no reduction can ever be had IL Con
gress is to pay heed only to these tariff
pets. But the reader should bear In mind
that altogether there are 6o,ooo,ooo of pco-
pie who are directly interested in the ques-
ton whether the tariff shall be reduced on
salt, coal, lumber and sugar. On the one
hand there are few hundred thousand
people engaged in manufacturing these
products who are opposed to reducing the
tariff, because it gives them a monopoly in
whole or in part of the market in these
products. On the other hand there are
59,ooo,ooo of people who consume these
products, and who, in fact, pay the tariff on
these products. The consumcr,of course,
consumed. Now which class of people
should be needed the most, the few hun
dred thousand manufacturers or the Co.
ooo,ooe consumers. The greatest good to
the greatest number Is the safest and only
honest, fair rule.

Our neighbor, the Dissemination, Is of
again on a tangent about "free trade" This
time II is the way in which Carlisle has
made up the house committees that has
aroused our tariff monopoly neighbor lie
says that Carlisle made them up in the In.
terest Of sfree trade, "but as that paper has
never been able to tell what ''free trade"
is, its readers are utterly at loss to know
what It means. It's main ground OF com
plant Is that Hermann did not get him.
self placed on the committee ON rivers and
harbOrs. Every one knows how indecor'
ously presuming and forward Mr.. Her.
mann was In attempting to force himself
upon committees for which he was noto.
riously unfit Helacked something verse
than experience, although he lacked that
wofully, having served but one term prior
to the present one.) His greatest deticien.
cy was lack of ability, and this, coupled
with his immodest, bold effort TO force
himself upon committees, had the effect el
remandiag him TO the eleventh place on
an unimportant committee. Speaker Car.
isle did not refuse to put Hermann on thi,
committee because he Is protectionist OF
a republican, as Is clearly proven by the
fact that ne put such republican protec-
tiOnists Us Henderson of Illinois, Bayne oi
Pennsylvania, Grosvenor of Ohio, Nuttine
of New York, Stephenson Of Wisconsin,
ard CoggswelI of Massachusetts. These
men were put on because of their ability
competency and experience. The Dissem
iHakOr iAtimates that Carlisle is '.fres
trader" which is not true. He would raise
enough money from customs duties which
in addition to what is raised from otheI
legitimate sources, would be amply sufi
cient to meet all the demands of the gov.
ernment economically administereIi. Only
this, and nothing more. lie would have
millions for defense, but not a cent foI
tribute TO tariff monopolists. Thus he Is
not a ''free trader" in any proper sense oi
the term. lie Is just such free trader As
nine-tenths of the farmers, lAborers and
mechanics are In Linn county. Scores OF
republican farmers all over this state have
just exactly the same views as Mr.. Carlisle
does on this subject. We have heard
more than dozen say that they would
support this kind of policy heartily. Farm
rsand other unprotected people are open
ing their eyes to the fact that they have
been paying tribute to tariff msnopolists
for long time and have concluded to do
so no longer.

II is calculated that only about five per
cent of the laboring population of the
country are employed in the various pre-.
tected industries and that these are ot,on
the gross average, as well paid as the la.
rerswho work in unprotected industries,
so that even the FIVE per cent Of laborers
set no advantage from protection. but the
principle Of the existing lava is that every.
body mast be taxed for the benefit Of these
protected industries which do not even
afford substantial advantage to their own
employees the protection benefits, when
ever any such accrue, all going into the
pockets of the employers and never being
realized by the Iaborer for whom II Is
claimed that restrictive legislation Is a
blessing.

No one has failed 10 observe the remark.
able liberality which republicans manifest
with reference to the way in which they
would get rid of the surplus in the treasury
of the United States. They would spend
untold millions in building up a navy.
Then they would appropriate untold mil
lions for public buildings,such as customs
and post office buildings. Then they would
spend millions in affording frSt-class mail
facilities for every fourth-class post Office
in the country. And some, like our neigh.
Der Of the DissemiNatoy, would spend the
surplus In digging large reservoirs all
along each side of the Rocky mountains
for the purpose of catching the waters
from the melting SHOWS SO as to prevent
the freshets and overfows in the valleys
at the base of the mountains. The repub-
lican brethren did but very little of this
kind of work while they were in power,
except that from 1865 to 1884 they spent
S4oo,ooo,ooo on a navy, and then had no
navy worthy of the name. Now why all
this extraordinary liberality IN getting rid
of the surplus ? This purpose is simply to
induce democrats to waste the surplus in
extravagant expenditures, and then make
use of this very fact as reason why dem
ocrats should be driven from power 1t is
eyidentto the most casual observer that
these people who make these recommen-
dations are not acting in good faith,as very
many of the things which they insist now
should be done, they persistently refused
to do when they were in power in the gen
eral government. So democrats are wary,
and rightly too,as to these reccmmenda-
tions of republicans. TO be compelled to
search for ways in which to. relieve the
treasury of its surplus is as dangerous to
the public welfare as to hoard It up in the
treasury. There is but one Statesmanlike
way of avoiding approaching danger, and
that Is to reduce taxation.

4 BOURBON uTTERANcE.

Perhaps the republican, assemblymen Of
New York did wisely In nominating FREE
mont Cole for Speaker, thus sending ex.
Speaker Hustled into retirement, Cole Is
not strong man, but he has been con-
nected with few, Il any, legislative jobs.
The most serious charge against him Is
that he is the dummy OF Platt and IIlseock.
But even dummies have been known TO
take It into their heads tob be men when
placed In positions Of power and respen
sihility.
The action of the New York caucus In
deneuncing the appointment of Secretary
Lamar TO the Supreme Bench, however,
was neither wise nsr well-timed. II will
not contribute to the defeat of Mr.. Lamar,
for he Is almost certain to be confirmed. II
will contribute to the prolonged solidity
of the South, condition which the New
York republicans have long professed TO
deplore. II was simply an unfurling OF
the bloody shirt, and indicates that the
New York republican assemblymen are
Bourhons who neither learn nor forget.

Men who have amassed colossal fortunes
and uiltpalaces costing millions of dol.
lars, no matter whether the money was
properly or improperly acquired, will not
surrender without struggle. Congress
men, 1t must be borne in mind,are bat hu-
man after all, and thousand dollar bills
are as big to them as to other people. The
best way to avoid temptation Is to remove
1t out of sight. Far better would II be for
Enforcement to lose the whole of its in
vestment in the Pacific roads than for
Congressto to be cursed year after year with
this soulless, ss,conscienceless railroad lobby
sapPing the honor and principle of our
Legislators.

A call for a meeting in Philadelphia to
approve the Presidents message has been
signed by business men representing all
interests and political parties and factions
In way to make the republican politician
fairly shake in his boots. Merchants and
manufacturers, professional and railroad
men,the representatives of immense sums
Of money invested in almost every con
ceivable industrial enterprise, by signing
the call announce their belief that the time
has come to insist that federal taxation be
reduced, and the meeting itself promises
to be remarkable both for size and char
aeter Pennsylvania has come to be the
headquarters of high protection sentiment
In this country, and Philadelphia, as the
great manufacturing towA, stands as the
foremost part of the state. This call and
meeting will make for the democrats a
vertable knock-down argument.

A Minnesota plough manufacturer,in a
letter to the New York EDeaisg Post,
shows how the eastern steel trust, protect
ed by the high tariff, ,robs western farmers
on plough. He says "The modern
plough is mostly steel The cost of the
material in it other than the steel is about
so cents. We get our beams, mouIds and
lays cut to shape at the mills. You see
that change in the price of steel makes a
large difference in either the profit account
of the manufacturer or in cost to the farm
er. Until last year and for some years
prior, we had been getting our steel at ~
cents pound. There was nothing to in
dicate that the mills were not doing a
prosperous business at that rate. Their
statesmen were active in soliciting orders,
their trade was good,and read occasional
accounts of increase in their facilities for
supplying the demand Last year the
steel trust was formed, and the price adj
vanced rapidly, until now the steel we
bought last year for AZ cents poand costs
as Io5z cents pound, an advance Of ra5
per cent. This is not due to any increase
ii the price Of iron or wages, but solely to
the rapacily Of the trust and the trust Is
made noesiblc hv the tariff

The Ohio republicans believe, above al
'hings,thatt to the vietors belong the spoils
Accordingly when thirteea State Senator,
got together and divided up the aforesaid
spoils to suit themselves,the other eleven
who were left out in the cold were much
enraged. Bolting their party's nominees
they combined with the democrats and
divided all the patronage of the Senate
with them. Between the row among the

licans will not be able to masquerade
