Ell glaland Chief


THIS celebrated stallion will make tho
i season of 1888 at his stable near the
mouth of crooked creek, upon the fol-
lowing terms: Ten dollars for each ser
vice; twenty dollars for the season with
no privilege of return, or thirty dollars
to insure. Persons wishing to avail
themselves of the service of this horse
should signify their intention to breed
at an early date, as he viii he limited
this season to a less number of mares
than he has heretofore served in any sea
son for the last three years. During the
season of 1887, Highland Chief became
standard, through the performance of
his colts, and is now registered as a
standard Horse No. 1927, in Wallace
Trotting Register, Upon information
derived from the same source it can be
asserted OF Highland Chief that he is
the first Horse in West Virginia to make
himself standard through his colts
This fact alone will be sufficient recon-
mendation to horsemen, and is an ac-
conplishment which does not require
any comment to establish the reputa-
ton of any Horse who performs it.
Mares kept at 100 per week. Accidents
and escapes at owners risk. Address

MORE INFLUENTIAL DEMOCRATS
Abandoning Cleveland and Thurman in
New York.

ELNIRA-John Arnot, banker of this city,
favors the Republican National platform and
the election of Harrison and Morton. He is
a son of Ex-Congressman John Arnot, who
stood by Samuel j. Randall in his fight
against The Morrison free trade bill. The
Arnots have always been stalwart Democrats,
and have been recognized as the most influ-
entail family in the southern tier of counties
of the State. Arnot's bank is one of the
strongest financial institutions in the State.
The issue of protection or free trade is the
cause of Mr.. Arnot's political change and
his followers will be numbered by many
hundreds. Among the many other changes
from the free trade party to the protection
lists is James A. Christie, prominent lawyer
of Households, Chemung county, who stood
in the front rank of the Cleveland phalanx in
1884. He is protectionist and says that he
cannot indorse Cleveland's Golden Club plat
form. Horace Brees, also formerly an in
fiuential Democrat, has joined the protection
army and will work for Harrison, Morton and

The Free Trade editors and Bourbon

LESSONS of wishing to remove the taxes
from the necessares of life and in the
interests of the people, yet have retained
very high duties on sugar and rice, South
ern productions, articles of food consumed
by the entire people, while they have
struck their hardest possible blows against
vital interests of other sections of the
country. The Republicans by voting for
the Dingley proposition put themselves
on record for very large reduction of
the duties on sugar, which is produced in
the country only to Il limited extent,
showed themselves far more watchful of
the interests of the people than did the
supporters of the Mills bill, which is
shameful sectionalism of the Mills bill is
not only shown by the retention of the
high duties on sugar and rice, but by the
still more important fact that the manu-
featuring interests, which Cleveland and
the Bourbon members of the House have
assailed, and against which they are con-
tinuing bitter, aggressive warfare, are
chiefly located north of the line of Mason
and Dixon, and most of the Democratic
members of the Ways AMI Means Commit

Why is it that Democrat when it is
charged that his party is in favor of free
trade Immediately gets angry and heatedly

Because when the representatives of his

average duties of ~ per cent, any Democrat
may be excused for getting angry at a cam
paign lie of that magnitude. Bangor Com
mercidi.
If it is a campaign lie that the Democrats
are against protection and therefore for
practical free trade, then Hon. Charles f..
Allen, Democratic Candidate for Congress
man from the Second district, is campaign
liar of magnitude, for he has, over his own
signature, assured his followers that the
Mills bill means ultimate free trade; then
the Portland Argus is campaign liar of
magnitude (think of IT'D, for the Portland
Argus in the course of its strenuous defense
of the Mills bill has denounced protection as
robbery then Hon. William l.. Putnam,
Democratic candidate for Governor of Maine
is a campaign liar of magnitude, for Mr..
Putnam, in his speech of July 9th at Port
land, denounced the protective tariff as
harmful. But we do not affect to believe
with our esteemed neighbor the Bangor Com
mercial, that these eminent Democratic au-
thorities have by their words and actions
been telling a campaign lie of magnitude
when they gave their readers and hearers to
understand that the Mills Cleveland pro-
gramme means the overthrow of protection.
The statement that the Democrats are in IA
vor of free trade is not lie of magnitude;
it is truth of magnitude. Press.

Endicott's English Blankets.

A correspondent has sent to the Press the
following communication
Did Secretary of War Endicott give con-
tract for a lot of blankets to an English manu-
facturer for the reason that they could be
bought at lower figure than the same quail
ity of blanket could be manufactured in Am
erica? STALwART.
Secretary Endicott recently bought about
5000 blankets for the United States Army
from English manufacturers and got them
for something like thirty cents apiece less
than he could have got them of American
make. The tariff on the blankets is about
thirty cents each, and as the Government
could import free of duty the Secretary of
War saved the sum of 5000 by giving an or
der for blankets for American soldiers to

important one for American

feels compelled to characterize
the attempt to brand him a free
