The Great Stallion PhallaS
Will Stay in Kentucky
Next Year.

Capt. T. B. Marrett wears hat sew
eral sizes larger than ever, on account
of the fact that Woodruff won the great
stallion race in Sacramento which was
trOtted Saturday, the Sth inst.
Eight thousand people were present
and witnessed the contest, which was a
desperate one. Guy Wilkes was a
great favOrite and StambOul was second
choice, Woodruff being wholly ignored.
Guy Wilkes took the first heat in 1925.
In the second heat, to the surprise of
everybody, Woodruff went along up to
the front, and he and Guy
Wilkes had merry time of
it. The struggle was fierce one,
but the heat was won by Woodruff III
the fast time of 2:1634. The third heat
was dead heat between Woodruff and
Guy Wilkes, the time being 2:1712. The
fourth and fifth heats were won by
Woodruff in 2:1915 end 2:2112. STAN
bOul was practically out of the race.
This race has been expected for long
9ime, and as everybody put theiI money
on Guy Wilkes a good deal changed
hands and went over to the NutwOOd
side of the house. John Goldsmith drove
Guy Wilkes, while Woodruff was driven
by his owner, c. b. Holly, who is not a
professional driver. Woodruff is a
chestnut horse, six years old. by
NutwOOd, out of Addie, bay mare
bred in Orange county, and sired
by HambletOnian Chief, by Ham
bletonian 10. Addie is owned
at Palo Alto. and ManOn, by NntwOod,
has a record of 2:21. Her last fOal is a
yearling, a bay FLY, by Whips. Wood
nut entered this race with a record OF
2:194 and came out with one of 2:16$4.
Capt Marrett has splendid fOur-year-
old son of Nutwood, named Nutwood
MambrinO, that gives promise of being
speedy. In regard to the NutwOodS the
Turf, Field and Farm says: "a Nut

THE SIJRPIIIS.

It may be supposed that Assistant Se- cretary of the Treasury Thompson knows something of what the probable revenues and expenditures of the government will be for the fiscal year ending June next. MT Thompson has looked into the matter and made close and comprehensive estimate of what the surplus will be. He concludes from his study that the actual increase of the surplus in the treasury, instead of being SIS, ,O00, 900 as estimated by the senate tariff jugglers, will be not less than S1O4, ,0O0, ,O0O; or, adding the SIS, 1000, ,O0O for the sinking fund, the aggregate reaches s122, 100000.
 MT Thompson is careful, prudent cal culator, and when he says there will be a surplus of this extent it may be regarded as pretty close to what the actual figures will be. He has not taken into account, in making his estimate, the surplus now lying idle in the treasury, so that with this vast sum added we will have at the close of the present. fiscal year considerably over sa00, ,000, ,O00 locked up in the public treas nry. Every cent of this monster surplus is taken from the channels of trade, creating stringency of money in business and compelling the government, in order to relieve that stringency, to buy in bonds at a premium.

NOT AT THIs STAGE.

There is probably not wool grower or woolen manufactures in the country who, if he expressed his honest sentiments in the matter, would be opposed to putting wool on the free list. The exigencies of politics-the necessity of standing for a wool tariff in order to antagcnize the dem ocratic position-furnish the real motif for the opposition to the wool clause of the Mills bill. The statements cf men who are most intimately concerned with wool made before the tariff commission of 1882 show that free wool is generally accepted mony is given by Wade's Fibre and Fabric, a republican paper publishel at Boston in manufacturing interests. In last weeks issue this paper says;
 The question of free or protected wool is still receiving a good deal of attention by the political press, and some manufac- turers are brought prominently forward as being in favor of free wool. We do not believe there is well-informed manufac- turer in the United States but what would favor free wsol, whether he be democrat or republican. But a good republican would hardly sacrifice his allies or be ln- discreet enough to make such purpose known at this stage of the campaign. In doing so he would be furnishing ammuni- tion to his natural enemy, the democratic party.
 Nothing could state the situation more clearly or more forcibly. The word has gone ont from headquarters that free wool must be opposed because it is democratic policy, and for no other reason. What a sublime position for the party of Lincoln and Grant
 Republicans are for free wool, but n ot at this stage of the campaign.
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1888-10-18
SOME NUTS FOR HAWLEY.

Senator Hawley, whose heart went back on him last week when he tackled the tariff question in the senate, will be with the republicans of Waterbury tonight Presumably-for presidential election is at hand-the senator will hold up the errors of the Mills bill and the wickedness of the democratic policy of tariff reform Free wool he will tell us means free trade, and free trade means ruin to the industries of the country and tower wages to our workingmen. The wicked attempt which MT Mills, backed by President Cleveland and the democratic party is making to turn over this country to England and the Golden club, the terrible assault which he is making on the protective szstem and the prosperity of our institutions, will doubtless be held up to the admiring re- publicans present with all the oratorical skill of which Senator Hawley is a master. But softly, senator; tread lightly-you have spoken words which sound strangely in the face of your present position. Will you kindly tellyCur hearers to night where in you differed from President Cleveland and MT Mills when you spoke as follows:
 Since the reductions of duties on raw materials in England, since wool was ad- mitted free, her woolen manufactures have so increased, so prospered, that the production of native wool has increased more than 100 per cent. The experience of England, France and Belgium demon strates the wisdom of that policy which makes the raw material duty free. Let us profit by their example. If our manufac- lures are to increase, to keep pace with the population and the growing wants ot our people; if we are to have the control oi the markets of our own country; if we are to meet with and compete with the man, ufacturers of England and other nations oi western Europe in the markets of the world, we must have our raw material ad mitted free or at & mere nominal rate.
 Sounds like free wool, don't it Perhars you believe, senator, that free wool would be all right if only it came from the republi. can party. And then again, senator, you might tell your interested listeners what ! you had in mind when in 1889, when it was
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1888-10-18

a question of reducing the tariff from 20 to 25 per cent, you spoke these words:
 I will vote in any direction to bring about resolute attempt to give us re- vision of the tariff.
 The national platform of your party this year declares for ''the entire repeal of in ternal taxes (free whiskey and free tobacco) rather than the surrender of any part of our protective system" How then, if you are true to that declaration of republican principles, can you, while whiskey and tobacco are taxed, vote for any measure that looks to any assault on the protective system. And again. Senator Hawley, how can you uphold the plank of the platform which declares for free whiskey when you recall these words spoken by you in con- gress on the 4th of August, 1882
 will not vote fer the entire abolition of a!1ect taxation, nor can the gentlemen find a wise government or wise head of finance in any foreign country that IS in favor of taking all duties from whskey and tobacco. They are the legitimate plumber of the tax collector, the legitimate plumber of the exchequer ir every government of the world They all get large part of the ir revenues from them. We should be ilnmeasurably and insufferably foolish if we abolished those taxes. l am against 1t. These are few nuts for you to crack as as you hold up tonight the beauties and blessings of high taxes-high taxes on everything we eat, on everything we wear, on everything We use in our households and upon our person and in our daily toil-but no taxes on the whiskey we drink and the tobacco we chew. There are a good many other things, Senator Hawley, that you might tell your hearers, and perhaps none would be more interesting than how it is that you, dyed-in- the-wool republican, are represe lting a democratic common wealth in the senate of the United States. And you might also explain if the republi- can national committee are using your frank by authority. If you will explain some of these things to the people that 90 to hear you tonight perhaps your visit to Waterbury will not have been in vain for the democratic party.
 A great opportunity is yours to night, Senator Hawley. Please do embrace it.

TARIFF TOUCHES,

The republicans claim to resist tariff re vision in the interest of the workingman. It is rather an uncomfortable position for the party, but republicans are nothing if not politically acrobatic. They can pat hand and put the other ill hi pocket to take out his hard earned dollars. Perhaps glance at few of the items of the tariff which the republicans refuse to revise may be interesting as showing how it bears on rich and poor. Here they are

ON the day before the election in 1884 the New York Tribune said: "The in dustries of the country are in peril, and only the election of MT Blaine can insure their safety" Blaine was defeated, the industries of the country have not suffer ed, and the Tribune's doleful predictions this year have the sound of tinkling cym- bals The country is safe and Cleveland will keep it safe.

Taxation for surplus is the republican policy. It is policy hurtful to the coun- try, disastrous to business and serviceable only to the bondholders. This policy must go. X vote for Harrison means a continuation of taxation for bounties q vote for Gle yeland means a check on this robber taxation. The country will choose between the systems next month.
 The high tariff must come down.
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1888-10-18

The bill which the republicans have brought forward as measure of tariff re- vision discriminates against the poor by substituting specific for ad valorem duties throughout, making the tax on coarse goods used by the poor equal to that i'm posed on the luxuries of the wealthy. But poor men as rule are not republicans, and the party has 50 object to protect them. Their opinion of the workingman is that which Vanderbilt had when he gave voice te his famous expression :: "The public be d-d."
 But poor men have votes, and their votes will be cast for the party that s their shield against oppression and in justice. They will vote the democratic ticket next month
