General Harrison is making bid for the col.
ored vote. That all right, but he can not win i
by waving the bloody shirt. The colored peo
pie have learned to prefer the red bandana.-

Benjamin Harrison was nominated by the
monopolists. If he is elected the monopo-
lists will control his adm nistraton. Here are
two reasons among many why he won't be
elected and oughtn't to be.-Lndidadpolis Sen

American labor should not strike these days,
but it should organize against the man and
party who want to have Cinnamon enter into
competition with them. The man is Harrison,
and the party the Republican.-BufatoT Times.
The Republican ticket is thus designated: !:
Barrel" "Tppecanoe and Free Whisky, too"
"Benjie and the Barrel" Ancestry and
Money-Bags. .''-GteUetand Psaa. Dealer.
The issue of the campaign may be easily pre-
dicted. The American people are too intel
ligent not to choose honest government, such
as they have enjoyed for over three years, to
the representatives of anti-free labor and the
"bar'l. l."-A'bdny Argus.
A proverb old enough to be bald-headed as
serts that there is honor among thieves" If
the assertion is true it will have to be admitted
that thieves have in that respect a material
advantage over Ohio pol ticians of the Repub-
lican varietv.-Chicogo Globe.
The Republican party proposes in this cam
paign to blow its nose on the stars and STRIPES
and then pocket the insult to the flag. The
war is indeed over when 100000 of citizens
can safely put this affront on the flag of our
Union.-BOSt0n Globe.
If we can not beat this ticket we can beat
none at ALL But we can beat it. There is in it
moth ng either captivating or imposing, and il
sets out on its precarlous journey with death
staring it in the face. BY all means let the
battle begin Louisville C0arier-J0urRa!.
1t does not look as if labor will indorse the
plank in the Republican platform which says:
I'VE are uncom promisingly in favor of the
American system of protection" Out of 15C
labor papers 13j favor tariff reform, which may
be considered a fair index of the sentiment on
the tariff issue.-NilaCaekee Reuie,D
The laboring men OF Indiana are not to be af-
fected in any way by the bloody shirt fetch, to
the employment of which in campaigns General
Harrison has been much given. They will ask
him many hard questions which he can not
answer satisfactorily. and before corn gather.

Don't f1atter yourself that the >"free trade"
howlers will start any stampede in the working
mems ranks. A tax reform bill and tax re-
form platform that calls only for a seven per
cent. reduction, and leaves the average duty
seventeen per cent. higher than in the days Of
labor's greatest prosperity, Will be hailed by all
intelligent workng-men as a step toward in
dustrial manhood and independence.-N Y.

The sense and correct speaking in this CAM
paign are the side of the Democrats The
idiocy nonsense and fiddle-faddle Of right be-
long to the Republicans. TIE Republican
platform is free-whsky platform. The DEM

Let the Republican roosters take that into
their craws and see if they have sand and
