BLAINE IN CONNECTICUT.

The "uncrowned king is passing through the nutmeg state to-day and at various places en route is holding up the beauties and the blessings of high taxes. There arc good many things which it is safe to as sume that MT Blaine is not telling his auditors, and there are very many which it is quite probable he will leave with ''anchors cast to windward." For instance, MT Blaine is hardly telling how he is going to reduce the enormous national surplus by abolishing the tax on whislloy rather than surrender any part of the protective system. His Paris opinion that ito cheap en the price of whiskey is to increase it's consumption enormously" and that to take off the tax on whiskey ''would destroy high license at once ill all the states, don't tally with the Chicago platforms idea. He is hardly proving to his hearers that ''the wages of the American laborer cannot be reduced except with the consent and the votes of the American laborer himself" when he remembers that Andrew Carnegie, the man who fried the fat out of his American workmen last year to the tune of $1 300, GOO, ''reduced the wages of the American laborers" in his employ 10 per cent, probably in order to feast MT Blaine in his baronial castles in Scotland He is hardly telling his hearers, in the language of Harrison's Burchard, Republican League President Foster, that "the manufacturers of the United States are most benefited by our tariff laws, that they Fare getting practically the sole benefit, or at least the most directly important benefits of the tariff laws" He is not telling the work ingnen who listen to his partisan harangues as he told congress in 1881 that Undoubtedly the inequality in the wages of English and American operatives is more than capitalized by the greater efficiency of the latter and their longer hours of labor" He is not tel ling his hearers why the republican board of emigration commissioners in New York city are not enforcing the laws against the immigration of pauper contract labor from Europe, which has been shown before the Ford Investigating committee sitting in NeW ork, ,Whlch cheap labOf IS threatening the wages of the unskilled American work men, He is not telling his bread winning listeners, as he leans from the lordly trappings of his palatial travelling coach,
 that the men with whom he hobnobs, the Carnegies and the Jones' and the Quays, are the men to whom high tariff duties are Q blessing since they are thus enabled to cre- ate and foster monopolies at the expense
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1888-08-13

of the wage-earning consumer. And we may easily imagine that he is not telling his Irish admirers how it was he found time while abroad to jingo with the Prince of Wales while he coptemptibly snubbed the Irish leaders of Cork and Dublin.
 These are few of the many things which we may easily believe MT. Blaine is not discoursing about as he travels, like "a simple American citizen," through Con necticut to-day. He will fnd-in some of his past speeches and documents, plenty of good fat crow to mix with the "catnip tea" that the Chicago platform tinkers have set before him. Will he swallow the dose without grin? That's what his hear CTS in Connecticut can answer after to- days experience.

THE report is going the rounds that a proposition has been made to thu chair man of the national executive committee of the republican party to the effect that there be a simultaneous closing of manu- factories in the country 1t the same time to be agreed upon between now and the coming election with a view of creating the belief that the tariff agitation is unsettling business and threatening American indus tries. Such Q project, if it could be sue cessfully accomplished, is not beyond the resources of the republican managers. Such men as Quay and New and Dudley would as soon ''fry the fat" out of the workingnen as out of the manufacturers. In fact, they would a little rather But wouldn't such scheme prove Q boom erang? Let them try it and see.

it,
