british Newspapers Praise the Champion
of Free Trade.


of Free Trade.
As a mere matter of politics, it would
pay the Republican managers TO su ST.
dize British newspaper with American
greenDacks for the next thr, months,
and have it print joyful articles on the
subject of tree trade in the United
States.-NeiU York World
In proof that it is wholly unnecr ssaty
and would be Il sheer waste of money,
inasmuch as the leading papers of Great
Britain are already printing joyful ar
tlcles on the subject OF free trade i'll the
United States" without money and
without price, we here quote few
sentences typical Of much that is now
being published i'll the English and
Scotch newspapers:
The London Times eulogizes Presi-
dent Cleveland at length and especially
eXto!s him as ''tLe free-trade champion
in America"
The Democrats, in our opinion, are not
as good iree-traders as they might be;
but we believe that the cause OF free inn
ports Is more or less connected with the
success Of the Democratic party"
The London Daily News, having
especial reference TO the Chicago con-
vention, says: English Liberals can
Ina dly be expected 10 sympathlze with
II convention programme which cllngs
10 protection"
The London Economist says: "On
the adoption of free trade by the Unit
ed States depends the greater share of
English prosperity for a good many
years TO come" And the British
Hosiery Review reiterates: I'VE ven
ture to assert that England will reap
the largest share of any advantages that
may arise from the adoption of the
ideas now advocated by the free trade
party i'll the United States"
The London Spectator says: Gro
yer Cleveland has done more to adj
prime minister of England has ever
done"
The Post, of Birmingham-tha En-
glish manufacturing center says: ''The
Republican platform is an appeal to all
kinds ofsecticnal interests and to the mar
rowest national prejudices. Protection in
It's most absolute form is the plain
meaning of the Republican manifesto.
Then the Post significantly adds: go
some extent ne are directly concerned
In the result of this contest"
The Leeds Mercury SAYS: "The
chances are altogether favorable to Mr..
Cleveland. who has justified his former
choice" +" because Republican free
traders will vote for him or abstain
from voting"
The Manchester Guardian, than
which no provincial Journal stands high
er, has long and carefully written ar
| ticle concerning which Mr.. Smalley, by
| whom it is summarized in a cablegram
to the New York Tribune, says: The
whole argument of this elaborate Man
| chester article is an argument for elect
ing Mr.. Cleveland in the interests OF
British manufacturers"
The Manchester Examiner says:
'1he Republican cause will not com
| mend itself to English Liberals, and we
| grieye to see great party adopting the
| exploded doctrine of protection"
Ihe Western Morning News, de.
| scribed as 1.-The leading Unionist journal
OF the Southwest" says: "Mr. Cleve-
lands election is practically cert in
| He has helped 70 purify the civil ser
| vice, has dicnitied the foreign policy
! and has, above ali, made himself the
| propagation OF free-tradc principles" "
The Scotsman, the foremost newspa
| per of Scotland, remarks substantially
| that MIR Cleveland's free trade views
| though not free enough tosuit the Scots
man, are III every way pre- cradle tC
prots ction."
And so quotations might be multi
piled indefinitely; but quite enough are
here presented to indicate that RI pub
/ l1can managers have no need whatever
t. subsidize the British press in order
10 induce it TO print joyful articles or
| the subject of free trade in the Unitet
