Keep the Gold and Silver a. Home

The amount of gold mined in the
United States, according to the director
of the United States Mint, since the dis
covery of gold in California in 1913, is
81, GOO, 100000. The same authority says
we had on hand July l, 1886, about $780,
600, 900, therefore we must have exported
a round billion within IS years. This, to
say nothing of the silver, which is prob
ably 200, 900, 900 or 3o0,000,000 more. 1t
represents part of our excess of imports
over exports. Probably AS much more
has been paid in iuterest-bearng securi-
ties. lands, &c. This sum is greater than
all the deposits in the savings banks in
the United States at the present time. 1t
Is more than the total amount of money
in circulation in the United States at the
present time. Suppose this money had
remained here, by fostering new indus
tries, and the price of boots was $40 per
pair, wool. 81 per pound, aud butter the
same. With labor at 81 per day who is
hurt ?-and we would still have the 81 ,00o,-
600, 900 more in real estate, linen, silk and
wooden mills. glass and chemical manu-
factories. How much better to keep this
money at home to build factories with, to
erect dwellings, to improve agriculture.
to enlarge the general field of industry,
and to give prosperity to our towns AMI
cities-how much wiser than to send
more of it out of the country through the
broad gates of Free Trade.

The elec,ioneering campaign in

The elec'ioneering campaign in
America ought to be most interest
ing to the English people for his
torical, political. philosophical and
economic reasons. The
main question of issue is English
free trade against the Continental
system of protection. The repub-
tic is on trial. Good. conservative
government, under Cleveland. is
opposed by the rule and ruin party
of Blaine, whose friends nominated
Harrison, and who would certainly
be the Secretary of State under Il
Harrison administration. Thus
the American people are directly
involved in the contest through
their pockets, which will be affect
ed by the tariff, and their future,
which would he seriously influenced
by the restoration to power of such
a fire-brand as Blaine, with his home
rule sympathies and anti-Canadian
policy. The American election is
infinitely more important to
Enslishmen than their own internal
politics just at this juncture, and
they should observe every phase
of the campaign closely and under
standingly. 1t is from this point
of view that the copious dispatches
to the Sunday Times are cabled.
The result of the American election
will help to decide many important
issues in Great Britain.-London

Sectional Democracy.

Ii was very important speech which
was made in the long debate on the Bay
ard fishery treaty, by Senator Evarts. 1t
is as truthful in history as it is weighty
insists bearing on the politics of the coun-
try. These are the words Of the able
New York Senator:
submit Mr.. President, that the most
noticeable circumstance in regard TO this
debate is this attitude of the Democratic
party. of the looseness of their adhesion in
affection, in zeal, in sympathy, that we con-
ceive belongs to all Americans when they
are dealing with foreign power, and when.
besides, see that the present constitution
of the Democratic party. as represented in
the two houses of Congress, shows a
geogra phical division, as well as a division
of politica' affiliations. Ii appears TO me thai
this fact is what wlll most attract the atten-
ton of the people of this country and will
most attract the attention of the foreign
nation, Great Britain.
But the sectionalism of the Democratic
party is betrayed in other ways than by
its Indifference to the rights of yankee
fishermen" and its Willingness TO make
disgraceful surrenders TO English and
Canadian demands and interests.
Mr.. Cleveland's bid for the support OF
.the solid South" in his Free Trade Mes
sage, whose doctrines, if adopted by Con-
gress, would ultimate ia the adoption OF
the most important and vital clause of the
Confederate Constitution, viz:
The Congress shall have power
To lay and collect taxes. duties, imposts
and excuses for revenue necessary to pay
the debts, provide for the common defence
and carry on the government of the Con-
| federate States, but no bounties shall be
| granted from the treasury nor snail any
duties or taxes on importations from foreign
nations be laid to promote or foster any
branch of industry, and all duties, imposts
and excuses shall be uniform throughout the
| Confederate States.
Now, as during the war, the "solid
South" and England are in working ALI
ance for Free Trade

James Dodge, of Brooklyn, was sent West
by Colonel Brice, chairman of the Demo
cratic Campaign Committee six weeks ago
on an errand of investigation. On his way
home he stopped in Syracuse aud talked
freely to james Crossley, a most reputable
citizen of that town. He said: II was gone
i've weeks and during that time | went rap
idly through ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Wiscon-
sin and Michigan and | am very sorry that
| shall have to make a rather discouraging
report to the committee if they want TO know
the facts. Ohio will surely be Republican
Indiana, think, will give Harrison reason
able majority. Why the people there are
enthusiastic over him and there is general
cry for his election. | do believe that there
are places in Indiana where it is dangerous
to mention Cleveland's name but, of course
there is much enthusiasm for him in the lar
ger cities. Illinois, Wisconsin and Michigan
are, am afraid, pretty certain to go for
Harrison. When | was in Illinois | can

Democratic editors have so far presumed
on the ignorance of Maine farmers as to
attempt to make them believe that they
are paying enormous rates of taxation to
the United States Government for their
agricultural tools, though such taxation
has no existence except in the paper, ink
and type with which these false state
ments are printed. THE MAINE FARMERS
ARE ABuNDANrLY ABLE TO TEACH THESE

ELEMENTS OF FOREIGNERS, AND THAT
THEY Do NOT PAY A SINGLE DOLLAR OF
TARIFF DUTIES FOR SUCH GOODS.

A Venture Worth Recording.

The following extract from a private
letter written by the manager of large
steel plate mill in Pennsylvania is significant
of the political outlook from a business
point of view:
80 | could not, however, get away if
| wished it, as we are preparing to commence
the addition to our works here of a Besse-
mer plant. If, however, the contract for
the whole thing becomes complete, then |
will not be so tightly tied up. This, |
might say, is venture of about 5000 900 on
the election of Harrison as President. We
have it under consideration for a year or
two, and have felt handicapped without it.
Before Mr. started abroad we had two
or three meetings, and our final decision
was passed on our belief that Protection
would win in the election of Harrison,
and SO decided to go on"
The company which the writer repre-
sents is one of large experience in the
manufacture of steel plates, and would
not take such a risk if they did not feel
satisfied from the outlook that the Free
Trade policy naugurated by the passage
of the Mills bill through the House will
not be endorsed by the people at the en-
suing Presidential election IdiF Bul-

A Pleasant Occasion

About 20 members of Highland Lodge,
A. o. L. w. and ladies made a visit To Hair.
lem Lodge. A. o. u. W, at South China.
last Tuesday evening. and were most cor.
daily received by the Brothers of Harlem
Lodge, who were celebrating the 81 ami.
versary of the nstituting of their Lodge.
Beautifully laden tables greeted the visitors
on their arrival at the G.. A. II. Hall. After
the inner man had been filled to repletion
all the visiting brothers and ladies including
members of Whtefeld and Kennebec Lodges
repaired to the spacious G.. A. r. Hall. where
they listened to appropriate remarks by sew.
eral members of the different lodges.
Brother Warren of Harlem Lodge wei.
coined the visitors with a few well chosen
remarks and then introduced Brother w.
johnson of Whitefeld Lodge as President of
the evening. Brother Vinal of Kennebec
Lodge Vassalboro, offered prayer.
After some appropriate remarks by sew.
eral members explaining the objects of our
order, the visitors were invited to second
supper and though over three hundred par.
ticlpated in the first supper, the tables
showed an equally bountiful supply the
second time, and that their stores were no,
exhausted, proving conclusively that liar.
lem Lodge is in prosperous condition and
knows how to exemplify true fraternity
besides living up to the precepts of the
of A. o. L. W.
One and all of the members of Highland
Lodge who were present pronounced their
visit one of the most enjoyable ones that
they ever had, and they will refer to that
evening as one of the good ones to be re-
membered in the future.

A Fatal Broadside.

Cleveland's undignified and absurd
course in regard to the Fishery question
Is dealt with in Mr.. Blaine's Lewiston
speech in way that the Buffalo adven-
turer is likely to remember for some
time. Delivered in a few hours after the
Presidents electioneering document was
made public, the impromptu review which
the Republican statesman makes of the
strange gyr ,tions ofthe Democratic candi-
date. is lem rkable for its vigor, histori-
cal accuracy and singing criticisms. 1t
remorselessly lays bare the uustatesman-
like course of the Democratic party on
past vital questions Of diplomacy and of
national interests, and shows clearly that
the purpose of Cleveland in issuing his
bombastic retaliation manifesto is to divert
the public mind from the Free Trade is
sue he raised by his December message,
which is driving thousands of his party
to the Republican ranks and to the sup
port of Protection. The broad side of
logic, solid facts, and effective satire from
Lewiston sends the shot and shell into the
hulk of the pretender's ship and reduces it
to hopeless, helpless wreck.

To the Editor of the Tribune:
Sir-In a speech which / made before the
Farmers Congress last November. | took
occasion to tell the farmers that they required
more protection instead of less. | pointed
cut 10 them that the foreign farmer was
bringing his products into this country, in
open competition. By the statistics just
published by the Treasury Department, il
appears that during the year ending June 30
1888, we imported into the United States
rs, 639. SCI dozen eggs; s8,006,3 1882 worth OF
live animals S., 155, 733 worth of breadstuff>,
including nearly a half million bushels OF
wheat: 100. 269 tons of hay $3.50 1888 pounds
of hops; 81. 0sS. s54 worth of provisions,
comprising meat and dairy products; l,9+2,-
$40 bushels of beans and peas; and $685.
53s bushels of potatoes. This is very large
increase in everything except hops over the
preceding year; the average increase viii be
more than twenty-five per cent.
All of these products thus imported with
proper protection to our farmers could and
should have been raised in our own country
and yet the Mills bill just passed by the
House of Representatives, instead of giving
increased protection to our farmers actual.

now imposed on many articles, and leaves

Not content with breaking down and destroy

now sell ninety-two per cent Of all thell

home market which he now has, and then, al
if this was not enough, still more to depres
and injure him, expose him to foreign com

has. This is the way the Democratic party
proposes to benefit the farmers of our coun
try. In consequence of the way the Govern
ment has construed and administered tn,
