The Next Labor Strike.

The knights of Labor and all
other associations of workmen,
whether open or secret, could not
do so much in years of striking,
agitating, boycotting and petition
ing to Congress and Legislatures
for their own advancement as they
bould effect by going to the polls
on the 8, of November and putting
in their votes for Cleveland and
Thurman. So
The whole earnings of labor in
the protected industries only
amount to $1s in the 800 of pro-
duct. The average tariff tax is SAT
in the $1O0. If foreign labor should
be twice as cheap as our own labor
a tax of 80 on the 800 would make
good the difference in labor cost.
The remaining $3S in the 800 is
wrung from the earnings of work.
ingmen, who receive no equivalent
in wages or advantage. 1t is this
$3S of protection for the sake of
protection" which fills the pockets
of few and filches from the pock-
cts of the many.
No argument can shake the
solidity of the Democratic position.
1t is an effort, pure and simple, to
cut away surplus taxation, and
put the proceeds in the pocket of
the labor. There is no other ques-
tion before the people than wheth-
er they will vote to refuse or ac-
cept u proffer of $7O,O6O,OOO during
the next fiscal year which would
otherwise be snatched from their
hands and warehoused in an over
flowing Treasury.
The laboring men of this country
have minds of their own and
votes of their own. They can
very easily and quickly settle this
tariff issue in their own favor, or
in favor of the trusts, combination
and monopolies which are eating
up their substance, Hadn't they
better go to the polls and make
their next strike?

CHAIRMAN QUAY of the Repub-
lican National Committee, about
ten days ago pompously proclaim
ed that he had deposited $25,00O in
certain bank, and would give
$4,000 for every one detected in
being fraudulently registered to
vote in New York. A few days
ago a fellow, by name of George
Gordon was detected and convict
ed for frauds, recently registering
himselfin four different precincts in
the City, and was sentenced to
Sing Sing for two years. On trial
the fellow said he was Republi-
can from Rhode Island. They
who did the work called on Quay
for the reward and now Quay says
he will think about it.

Predictions.

The Republicans told us in 1884
that if Cleveland was elected the
Rebel debt would be paid; Rebel
soldiers pensioned; the negroes re-
turned to bondage; business of the
country would be destroyed; farm
ers ruined.
Cleveland was elected and these
things have not come to pass.
Now Republicans say that if
Cleveland is reelected.
Our manufactures will be ruined.
Our laborers all thrown out of
employment.
Wages reduced to one half what
is now paid.
And our wool producing indus
try be destroyed.
They were mistaken in 1884.
They lie in 1888. Regular grada-
tion you see.

The Duty of Democrats.

In one week and two days the
people of the United States will be
permitted, by virtue of constitu-
tional right to express their choice
among the candidates for official
honors from presidentto the lowest
and least important Office in the
county. The expression of this
choice, the exercise of this high
constitutional right is not mere
holiday privilege, but serious
and bounden duty of every citizen.
1t is the constitutional means pro-
vided for the perpetuity of our
form of government, and hence he
who neglects the duty strikes a
blow at the existence of the re-
public. There has grown up in the
last quarter of a century, a false
sentiment, feeling that the vote
of the citizen is for the sole benefit
of the candidate, for the rendering
OF which the elector deserves the
everlasting gratitude of the candi-
date and his immediate friends, if
nothing more substantial is ex-
pected or received. Let Demo-
Gratis remember that we as such
are battling for honest govern
ment and freedom from a money
ed aristocracy and that we can
not afford to make any sacrifice
of principle. 1t is the duty of
every Democrat to see to it that
he is early at tbs polls, and their
vote and work for the success of
of the doctrines which he believes,
and the success of the candidates
representing them.
The candidate that is willing to
do more than promise to faithfully
perform the duties of the Office to
which he aspires is dangerous and
should be avoided.
All gifts, excepting the legiti-
mate expenses of the campaign
are illeg al and corrupting in their
tendency and beneath the thought,
much less the acceptance of any
one who bears the honored name
of Democrat.
The Ohio Democrat. (Logan, O. [Ohio]) 1886-1906, 1888-10-27
Blundering Blaine.

Harrison has been crowded to
the extreme rear in the canvass,
and the whole campaign has been
run by Blaine for Blaine. Not
withstanding the fact that he was
directly repudiated four years ago
he seems to hope for better luck in
running by proxy.
1t is however unfortunate that
his proxy is a man who has no
personal following, one who has
antagonized a large portion of the
labor element of his own State
and the conntry, and who is for
ced to accept the glamour of his
grandfather's name to supply the
lack Of personal merit. The Sell
ection of such a candidate, by the
"Uncrowned King" was a great
blunder. Blaine's next blunder
was when he posed as the apollo
gist and defender of Trusts, and
declared that they were largely
private affairs. He blunderd
again when he under took the de-
fense of the Canadian railroads, as
against the policy of retaliation as
indicated by the message of Presi-
dent Cleveland. He again made a
bad break when he undertook to
charge the majority of the House
Ways and Means Committee with
corruption in so framing the Mills
bill as to favor the Sugar Trust, and
found himself convicted of willful
and malicious falsehood in refer
ence to the matter.
Another blunder was his refusal
to speak at Tippecanoe because the
Indiana committee suggested that
he should change his speech to
more fully meet the requirements
of the canvass in that State. Un-
crowned King he may be, but he
cannot aford to antagonize the
leaders of his party in Indiana,
or when the Grown settles on his
brow he may find it composed of
thorns instead of jewels.

Ex.Goynor Rufus B. Bullock.

Ex.Govnor Rufus B. Bullock, of
Georgia, is persistent in season and out
of season in advocating as Republican
policy the dropping of what he calls the
"Negrophobia question" In recent
chat in New York he said: "The Repub.
lican party makes great mistake when
it fails to recognize the strength of .preju.
dice, born, bred and ingrained, as the
prejudice against the negro is ingrained
with the white people of the South. You
can go to the business man in Atlanta,
whose business is or will be affected by
the Mills tariff bill, aud he will admit to
you that he thinks the Republican party
is right on protection. But when he
hears speeches like those made by Sher.
man and ingalls, and Foraker, he recoils
and pulls himself together and says that
the Republican party wants to put the
negro on an equal footing in his parlor
-and--house with his family and friends
There he stubbornly casts his veto, as he
believes, against what he calls the 'nigger
party even while acknowledging that his
personal business interest lies with that
party. If the Republican National Con.
vention will make one plank and sweep
all other issues aside, except the tariff,
it can carry some Southern States, but
as long as the 'bloody.shirt' continues to
wave, so long the South will remain sol.

The President Enries one Man.

BANGOR, Me-, May 1e.-A few days ago
F. W. Aver landed at the fishinggrounds
a magnificent salmon which tipped the
scales at twenty.seven pounds. It was
the largest ever taken with fly on the
Penobscot, and one of the finest specimens
of the king of the fish world ever seen
here. Mr.. j. P. Bass of this city pur.
chased the salmon and sent it by express
to President Cleveland, and has received
the following in acknowledgment:
"My Dear Sir: Please accept my
thanks for the beautiful salmon I receiv-
ed from you day or two ago. You say
it is the largest one ever taken with fly
on the river. I think, upon my expert
mental knowledge of its delicacy, I shall
be willing to assert that it is also the best
fish ever caught in the river. I suppose
I ought not to take more than the oppor.
tunity you have offered me of capturing
my share of the fish when served upon
the table, but I am mean enough to envy
the man who caught it

Hanging from Bridge 100 Feet High.

J.G Caldwell, who lives on Washing.
tion avenue, near Elliott street, Woodside,
NJ, had terrible adventure last night
on the Midland Bridge. Mr.. Caldwell is
drummer for New York house. His
friends warned him of the risk attending
any attempt to cross the bridge, which is
over a hundred feet high, but he finally
started to walk home. He got as far as
the centre of the bridge, when he heard
the noise of an approaching freight train.
1t was evident to him that the engineer
did not see him, for the train did not
slacken speed.
Mr.. Caldwell was in terrible plight.
His remarkable presence of mind and
strength saved him from the death that
seemed to await him. The bridge ap.
peared to him to be narrower, he says,
than at any other time when he had
crossed it, although he was always aware
that it was not intended to accommodate
foot passengers. he saw that there was
not space sufficient beyond the ties on the
trestlework for him to stand while the
train passed. He also realized that to
lie down was not a means to escape, as
the steps of the cars would dash his
brains out. He decided to depend on his
muscles to save him, and being an ath-
lete he hastily crawled to the side of the
bridge, seizing large tie with vice. like
grip and swung in the air 100 feet above
the water.
The few seconds occupied by the train
in passing seemed to Caldwell like an
age. After the train had passed he found
that his hands were numb, and his
strength seemed to forsake him, yet
with remarkable nerve and superhuman
strength he finally drew himself on the
bridge and proceeded homeward, coat
less and without hat.-Ne,u York Star,

Some Figures About Steady Drinking.

.How. many drinks Of whiskey do you
average q day." said one gentleman to
another, as they we're enjoying a social
glass at resort on Cotton avenue yester-
day afternoon.
"Oh, taking the year ronnd, ! presume
my average would be about ten day."
"And how long has this been going
-on2"
s'straight along for twenty years, I
guess; but it never hurt me any, and 1
can attend to my business just as we'll as
I ever could"
"But how much whiskey, taking your
own statement for it, do you suppose you
have drunk during that time"
"I'm sure I don't know. I never
thought about that"
"Well, let US take another nip and
then figure on it," and they did, and
here is the result of their work:
"Ten drinks day would be 70 drink.
week, or 2,64O drinks in a year. In
twenty years that would give the enor-
NOUS number of 72,800 drinks. Now
the average drink taken in this country
is said to be so to gallon. Then divide
this 1880 by go, and you will find that
you have consumed 1918 and.a fraction
gallons. Now, there are supposed to be,
on the average, So gallons to 8 barrel.
Divide 1918 by 96, and you will find
that you have drank just about 36 barrels
of the stuff"
The old topper looked at the figures and
then at his friend, and then remarked :
"Well, let's take one more, and then I
think I'll give my stomach a rest for q
day or two"
