GENERAL HARRISON'S
Denunciation of Lies Circulated Abou

Denunciation of Lies Circulated About
Him.
Early in the campaign people claiming
to speak for the laboring men, but really
in the employ of the Democratic party
managers, promulgated through the news
papers and by campaign publications that
were given without the Endorsement of the
Democratic campaign managers, but were
paid for by their funds and circulated un-
der their auspices, number of false and
scandalous stories relating to my attitude
toward organized labor. Great and pro-
longed cheering The purpose of all
stories was to poison the minds Of the
wcrkingmen against the candidate of the
party that stands in this campaign for
the principles of protection to American
labor. [Great cheering.] l have only
once, in all my addresses | have made to
my fellow-citizens, alluded to these ma
licious stories, but now-and in the pre-
sence of this great gathering of working
men-I do pronounce them to be
utterly false. Tumultuous cheering and
waving of flags and banners, which con-
tinued for several minutes.] The story
that | every said that one dollar day was
enough for workingman, with all its ac-
compartments and appendages, is not a
perversion of anything | ever said-it is a
false creation. will not follow in detail
this long catalogue of campaign ISLANDERS,
but will only add that it is equally false
that anywhere, or at any time, ever
spoke disparagingly of my fellow-citizens
of Irish nativity or of Irish descent. Many
of them are enrolling themselves on the
side of protection of American labor, and
this created a necessity for the story. l
want to say again that those who pitch
campaign upon so low level greatly un-
derestimate the intelligence, sense of de-
cency and love of fair play of the Ameri-
can people. prolonged cheers. II From
the speech of General Harrison to 5000
railroad men who visited him.

Whisky in the Mills Bill.

Some of the Democratic papers are de-
nying the statement that the Mills bill
proposes to remove all Federal burdens
from the retail liquor business and make
saloon-keeping free throughout the land,
so far as the General Government is con-
cerned. If they will turn to the bill in
gu stion and look at the fortieth section
thereof they will find it to read as follows:
"That all clauses of Section 3244 of the
revised statutes, and all laws amendatory
thereof, and all other laws which impose
any special taxes upon manufacturers of
ers in malt liquors are hereby repealed"
How does this strike the Prohibitionists
who are laboring SO fearlessly and indus
triously to keep free whisky Democracy in
wer?-Eiie Dispatch.
Sacramento daily record-union., 1888-11-03

TALK about free whisky-why, Section
40 of the Mills free trade bill provides:
"That all clauses of Section 1924 of the
Revised Statutes, and all laws amendatory
thereof, and all other laws which impose
any special taxes upon manufacturers or
stills, retail dealers in liquors and retail
dealers in malt liquors, are hereby re-
pealed" That section is omitted from the
printed copies of the bill, for campaign
reasons. But it is out now that the De-
mocracy has freed whisky-the only thing,
by the way, it ever did free, except the
destruction.

YOUNG MEE. WHERE WILL YOU CAST
YOUR LOTT

Thousands of young men will on Tuesday
next cast their first ballot. 1t is mo-
mentous event in the life of man, this
first act of supreme sovereignty. 1t ought
to reveal to him the full grandeur and
purpose of self-government and all the
solemn responsibilities attaching to and
inseparable from sovereignty.
Now, let young men pause and think
seriously with what political party they
should connect themselves. If they are
well read in the history of their country.
if they are deeply imbued with patriotic
sentiment, they will not fail to discern
that their duty to their manhood, citizen
ship and patriotism puts them in line with
the Republican party.
Let them examine the nations history
and discover, if they can, where, when and
in what way the Democratic party ever
stood forward for human freedom. They
will find. that first and always the Demo-
cratic party has been
The party of slavery; the enemy of free
dom:
The party of obstruction; the avenue Of
retrogression:
That it was the cause and author of the
most cruel, unholy and exhausting Of
bloody contests:
That every rebel in arms against the
union of the States, the flag of the nation
and the honor and perpetuity of the Re
public was Democrat.
Search where they may, they will find
no Republican who was rebel; no Re-
publican who fired on the'old flag; no Re.
publican who held human beings in bond
age, or who did battle to extend the area
of slavery.
They will find that the Democratic
party uniformly and always opposed, voted
against and assaulted the homestead law :

MR.. CLEVELAND GIVES THANKS FOR
PROTECTION.

Mr. Cleveland, as President, has issued a
Thanksgiving Proclamation. That was
perfunctory; thing of routine. But in
it composition it should reflect the
thought of the author What do we find
Mr Cleveland saying in his ascription Of
praise to the Lord? Why, that God has
constantly led us in the way of prosperity
and greatness :" that he has vouchsafed us
abundant harvests, and rewarded the toll
OF the husbandman y that rich rewards
have followed the labors of our people in
their shops, and in their marts of trade and
traffic." that we have "peace, social order,
contentment, national greatness" and so
on to the end of the chapter.
Now this is all true, very true; but turn
back 10 Mr.. Cleveland's December free
trade message, when he was in an ambi-
tious and not a praying mood, and OBJ
serve, when he had no thought of thanks
to Heaven in mind, how dolefully he
pictured the condition of "an over-taxed,"
protection-ridden people, and how he
dwelt with fervid alarm upon the rapidity
with which we were all going to the devil.
Observe what dark and dismal picture he
drew Of the condition of the nation. and
how ne forecast, that if we did not at once
throw open our ports to the products of the
cheap and pauper labor of Europe, a great
misfortune would overtake US and finan-
ciaI ruin ard social wreck miugle in COM
mon disaster.
But when Mr.. Cleveland gets out of
politics and down upon his marrow bones
before the lord, he sings different sorg.
He then thanks God for the prosperity
and content of the country. Let Mr..
Cleveland and his party, therefore, lea e
present conditions alone. We have lc-
come great and prosperous: we are cor
tented under the American policy of pro-
lection to home industries, and the thing
to do is 10 leave matters as they are, ex-
cept where We can more wisely extend pro-
lection
Let voters adopt MIR. Cieveland's thanks
giving proclamation, ignore the Deceni
Der message, praise the Lord for protection
and prosperity and thank God that Minister
West has opened to the eyes of the nation
the arcana of free tradeism. Let voters
do grateful service before the Throne Of
Heaven that, as Cleveland says. the
husbandman is richly rewarded, that
the loom is without rest, that the
wheel ceases not in its revolution, and
that labor is paid according to its worth.
Let the voter, in short, thank God for
prosperity and content, pray Heaven not to
permit the substitution of free trade and
low wages; and then let the voter step up
to the ballot-box and vote as he prays-
for protection aud Harrison.
Sacramento daily record-union., 1888-11-03

The 30-cent-blanket Democrats are
whining that they are not to blame for the
unwisdom of Minister West. OF course
not. Nobody ever said you were. But
the doctrines your Sachem Cleveland
breaches, and that Sycamore Mills endeav-
ors to push through Congress, and that
your Secretary of War exemplifies by
buying English blankets for American
soldiers-these are to blame. Oh, dear,
no; no one blames you for Vests folly
it is all chargeable to the doctrines of
your party, not to you.

SENATOR EEMUNDs hits the nail on
the head when he says he is for protection
and Harrison because foreign-made articles,
from shoes and pegs of shoes to locomo-
tives and ships, used in our country, just
that much deprives the American worker
of the chance to earn bread for his family:
and because nation is only large family,
the members of which are bound to help
each other by united and reciprocal labor.

THE CONVICT WAGONS.

Do workingmen propose to vote the
ticket that is headed by the name Of a can
didate, who buys wagons for the army that
were made by convict labor, and that, too,
at twenty-five cents a day? Yet Mr.
Cleveland did that thing. He was warned
about it, but he is stubborn, stiff-necked
and refused to cancel the bid of the State
Prison contractors.

afternoon, was q member and worthy
brother Of Rock Hill Lodge, F. & AM,

Dying away from his home lodge, and

his last moments.
The Masonic brethren met in special

departed brother.
After the religious services at the

The coffin was then carried to the grave

The impressive Masonic burial service
