A Great Meeting.

1t does not require the memory OF
the " oldest inhabitant to recall the
great political demonstrations of the
campaign of 1870 when Old Tip, y
the nickname of The elder Harrison,
was the rallying cry of the victorious
Wings. Comparatively young men can
remember the impression made upon
them by the grand pageants, the songs
and the emblems of that mem able
campaign.
With spirit and enthusiasm rivaIng
that of the Wing supporters Old Tip
pecanoe, the Cecil Republican support
ers OF his worthy grandson, the no less
gallant defender of his country's flag,
and the able exponent OF his partY'S
principles-Ben Harrison-marched i'll
imposing parade through the streets OF
Elkton on Thursday.
1t was grand demonstration of the
loyalty of the people OF Cecil County
to Republican principles.
1t was an emphatic declaration OF
their devotion to the doctrine of pro-
lection for American industries.
1t was an unmistakable reputation
by the electors of this county of the
Democratic heresy OF free trade.
1t was an earnest OF the intention OF
the voters OF Cecil to stand true to
their American industrial system, as in
the perilous times of the rebellion they
stood true to their country's colors.
1t was a demonstration OF which the
friends of protection and the support
ers OF Harrison and Morton in Mary
land may we'll be proud, and the influ.
ence of which will be felt at the polls
in November.

The memphis Appeal DEM says !:
1--WE lay down concisely, and we trust
clearly, the Democratic doctrine of
free trade, which is as old as the birth
of the party. The doubtful states have
long been familiar with the fact that
the Democratic party is the free trade
party, and they know that any attempt
to reconcile it to protection in any
form, shape, character or degree, would
be an abandonment of principle that
would and of right ought to cover 1t
with obloquy and disgrace" This is
refreshingly honest; but how embar
RAISING it must be to the I4bbeaP S
Democratic contemporaries whose prin-
cipal business during this campaign is
to delude voters with the false declara-
ton that "we have entered upon no
crusade of free trade"

The real beneficiary of our protec-
tive tariff is the Nation, and no class OF
its citizens. Our unrivaled develop
ment-not in one, but in every direc-
tion-the general prosperity of our peo-
pie, the favorable condition of our
wage earners compared with those OF
Europe-all are the result of the bene-
fcent protective policy of the Republi-
can party. The other side of the pic
ture was to be seen in 1876, 1892,
1916 and 1857. No careful reader OF
the industrial history of this country can
help seeing which system has been pro-
ductive of benefit to us-protection CT
free trade.

thousands of voters who are going to

BENZ. HARRISON.

Many Prohibitionlsts of Indiana, it is
said, see the folly of voting for theil
National ard State candidates, and
look with much more favor upon Gen
eral Harrison than on Grover Cleve,
land as fit man to be elected. Per
sonally. General Harrison is much more
acceptable to Indiana Prohibitlonists
than is Fisk himself. They well know
bis strict integrity, temperance and
morality, and while he is not declared
Prohibitionist, they regard the great
National issues as of paramount i'm
portance to this single one upon which
their party stands.

General Harrison in 4 recen1

General Harrison in recent speech
to a workingmen's club expressed opin-
IONS upon the labor question which
should endear him to every wage
Garner in the land. A workingman's
wages, he said, should "yield him a
decent, comfortable support for his
family, enable him to keep his children
in school and out OF the mill In their
tender age, and allow him to lay up
against incapacity by sickness or acct
dent or for old age, some fund on
which he can rely"

The announcement that Mr.. D. l.
Leonard, the most prominent of the
"Greenback" leaders in Indiana, has
come out for Harrison is very signif-
cant straw. In 1884 he polled S,33S
votes for Governor on the Greenback
ticket, and he estimates that IS pei
cent of his party will support the Re
publican nominees this year.

The Democrats are anxious to make
out that the Republicans are opposed
to the reduction of the heavy ''waI
taxes" What is the fact? Since the
war the Republicans have cut of $780,,
ooo, 900 of taxes. The Democrats, who
have held the lower House of Congress
almost continuously since 1875, have
cut of $4,000, 900! The only schemes
of reduction to which the Democratic
mind has been equal have been the
morrison horizontal reduction" bill
and the Mills bill. The record speaks
for itself.

whole body of liquor dealers and
saloon keepers has gone over to the
support Of the Democratic State ticket,
while the prohibitionists are assisting
the liquor men in their fight against
Warner Miller our Republican candi-

is strong temperance man, but still
