the CHARLES L. voaELEa co.. Baltimore, "a.

A PROHIBITION orator named David
Morgan is reported to have said in a
speech at Albert Lea recently, that "Mr.
Merriam in his political campaigning, is
frequenter of saloons and associates
freely with buns. 1 met him one day
just before caucus. He was coming out
of a saloon and held bunch of bills in
his left hand. 1 greeted him and after
some conversation, said: what are you
doing with that money?' He replied,
we have to use it. We have to give it
to these Dutch and Irish fellows. We
need their votes" Mr.. Morgan added:
81 am responsible for my words. What
say is true. Carry it to Bill Merriam
if you want to. / will stand by it."
Mr.. Morgan can "stand by IT, as long
as he pleases-he will never make any
intelligent Republican believe he is not
lying. HIS assertion that Mr.. Merriam
is "frequenter OF saloons and associ-
ates with bums," we can most forclbly
brand as malicious falsehood, and one
that will be resented by thousands of
reputable and upright citizens and bust
ness men who of personal knowledge
know it to be lie. AS Mr.. Merriam is
not celebrated for lack of brains, and
is known to have some degree of politi-
cal sagacity, no sensible person will for
a moment believe the closing charges of
Mr.. Morgan's TRADE. The Review pub
fishes them prominently in its editorial
columns. but without comment. That
means that Mr.. Wise don't believe them
to be true, but is willing to give them
circulation with the hope that the hes
may have effect among some of his ILL
informed readers.

The principal reduction IN the Kepub'

The principal reduction In the Repub
lican tariff bill is on sugar and tobacco
the duties on which go almost entirely
into the treasury, while iron, wool anC
other items which indirectly benefit the
manufacturer, and to whom the people
are made to pay tribute, are left almost
untouched. -ReUieaD.
Now see here, be honest, and tell ut
whether the'average poor mans sugar
and tobacco bills in year are not vastly
larger than his expenditures for "iron
wool or other items?" 1t will take
considerable .perverseness to deny thai
the reductions proposed by the Senate
bill come nearer the farmer and work
ingman than any proposed by Mills.
But, again. The Reuie,D says the sugar
and tobacco taxes 60 entirely into the
treasury, while those on other items
benefit the manufacturer. Now here is
most open expose of the Insincerity OF
the Democratic cry that the surplus
should be reduced. Has not every
member of that party from Cleveland
down to Wise been loudly bowling
against the policy of boarding up money
IN the treasury? What does the Reuies0
mean then by Directing to the Senate
bill on the ground that it makes certain
reductions in the amount to 90 directly
into the treasury? If the tariff on 10Th
er items" does 90 to the "beneft of the
manufacturer" he doubtless uses it in a
way which benefits the people much
more than to hoard it in the treasury to
be loaned by Cleveland to Democratic
bankers without interest. But here is
Wise Directing to the Senate bill because
of the very reductions which will dimin-
ish the annual surplus surely and effec-
tually. What sort of argument is this,
if all the howl against the surplus has
been sincere? We are inclined to be-
lieve the ReUieD made a slight mistake.

THE SPECIOUS PLEE FOR FREE
RAW MATERIALS.

While their organs and orators are re-
peating the presidents later assurance
that he and his followers are not engaged
in a crusade of free trade, it will not do
to overlook the tactics by which they
assail the policy of protection. These,
like their arguments, will be found TO
emanate from the Golden Club, whose
patron saint advised that in assailing
the protective policy some one point
supposed to be most vulnerable should
be singled out, as, when this was gained
further conquest would be the easier.
Following this advice of Mr.. Golden,
the president and his assistants have
selected as the point for that attack what
they designate, but omit to define, as
the "raw materials of manufactures u
and by argument, special pleading, mis-
representation, and evasion, appeal fol
recruits to the ranks of tariff reformers
The more conservative of them profess
willingness to concede moiety of pro-
lection to manufactures, provided the
materials used therein are put on the
free list. The significance of this con
cession becomes the more apparent
when the attempt is made to determine
what shall be denominated raw mate
rails In the two most important indus
tries-wool and iron. Where shall the
"raw material line be drawn in either
of these industries? The farmer grows
the wool. His raw material is naked
land, in tilling which he must call to his
aid the finished products of long list o
Notwithstanding, wagons, har
ness, tools-and after feeding the crop:
raised by aid of these he turns out WOO
as his finished product. This in turn il
the raw material of the cloth manufac
turer, whose finished product becomes
the raw material of the merchant tailor
So with iron, beginning at the ore bed
and following through the processes o
digging, transportation, smelling, roll
ing refining, and into the Thousand
manufactures. The finished product O
each in turn becomes the material for
more advanced manufacture by the 9th
er, and by reason of such fact falls under
the ban of the revenue reformer.
No further illustration is needed t
discover the tactics of the free trade
promoters. Their demand for "free raw
MATERIAL once conceded, that conven
lent phrase will be used 10 swell the free
list into dimensions beside which the
Mills bill will appear diminutive. Thi!
plea for free raw materials is no more
candid than other tactics of free trade
emissaries. Their real object is the
complete overthrow of the policy o.
protection to home industries and open
ing our markets to unrestricted compe
tition, and this the more candid of then
have frequently admitted.
The markets of the United States be
long to our own people; and no change
should be allowed in our tariff laws
which will in any wise impair the adj
vantages guaranteed to American citi
zens over alien competitors. This j.
both patriotism and sound business
policy.-Home Market.

CONVENTION OF CLUBS.
Republican Clubs of Minnesota VIII
Meet In Minneapolis Oct. IT.

The Republican league of the state is
doing excellent work, and its officers at
headquarters seem to appreciate the I'M
portance of the work to be done. Pres
ident Byrnes and Secretary Bixby are
constantly employed. There are already
over 400 clubs in Minnesota. These are
all in active operation. The league is
not satisfied with this splendid working
force, but is making every possible effort
to increase its usefulness. To make the
organization more complete and syste-
matte convention of Republican clubs
has been called to meet IN Minneapolis,
Oct. II, at the Peoples Theater. The
circular call says the meeting will be for
the purposes, first, to devise the best
means of extending the Republican club
organization of the state; and second, to
agree upon a general plan of campaign
work for the clubs throughout the state. F."
As to representation, each Republican
club now in the state, or organized prior
to Oct. IL, will be entitled to three dele
gates. In localities where clubs have
not been organized, the Republicans are
urgently requested to call meetings at
once and organize Republican clubs. All
clubs will, at the earliest date possible,
report their organization, list of officers
and delegates to the secretary of the
state league, in order that proper list OF
membership may be prepared This
will be very important convention,
and it is hoped that all clubs will be rep.
resented. Several of the most promi'
nent Republican speakers in the United
States will be present and address the
convention. The work of Republican
clubs, well organized and equipped fol
work can not be too highly estimated
Let all the clubs of Blue Earth county
send delegates to Minneapolis Oct. IL
and before that date let good organiza
ton be effected in every town or distric
in the county.

The following is an extract from a
speech recently made by Congressman
Mills at East st. Louis. We can produce
the name of gentleman who heard him
utter them, if anybody denies the reIia-
bility of the quotations:
If Grover Cleveland is re elected Pres
ident of the United States-as he will be
Ia voice: HE will that,"O if another
Democratic House of Representatives is
chosen, and if we can get our Republic
can friends out of the other end of the
Capitol and get Democrats i'm place of
them, then we will pass tariff bill that
puts raw materials on the free list, and
then we will put our own intelligent and
skillful and productive labor in this
country upon plane of equality with
the laborers of all other countries.
To put our productive labor upon a
plane of equality with the laborers of all
other countries means, of course, for it
can mean nothing else, to reduce the
wages of our laborers, for they are now
double those of the laborers of any other
nation on the globe. We do moi see how
any sane man can expect the people of
this country to take raw material and
work it up for the same price that the
work is done for in England. They
can't do it, and receive higher wages
than do English laborers.
