Replies to Some of President Csmpbsrs
Assertions.
To he Editor Of The RCSLstsr::
SIR-Mr. James Campbell, President Of
the American Window Glass Workers
Association, has produced the silliest piece
of campaign literature that I have yet
seen. 1t purports to give an account of
work and wages in Belgium, and was
published in last Wednesdays Hateligea-
Ger. Mr.. O. evidently started out with
the determination to give his masters, the
Republican politicians, what they wanted,
ncncs his wild assertions. He goes to
much trouble Ia show that wages in Bel
GUM are low, fact that everyone knew;
but when ne attributes the lowness OF
wages to the absence of high tariff, he
allows his party zeal to place him in the
light OF an iguorsmus.
Wages in Belgium, he says, are only
30 cents per day, because it is free trade
country. Will he explain, then, why
wages in China-the most highly pro-
tected country on the earth-only average
20 cents per day? In Belgium, he says,
the common people sometimes eat mules,
Well, in China they eat rats, and the
flight OF her people in search of higher
wages has become q menace to American
labor
If Mr.. Campbell were an honest search
sr after truth, why did be not also give
to the public the very important fact that
the purchasing power OF money in Belgi.
um is much greater than in the United
States? lie could not reach fair conclu-
Iion without this item.
Mr. Campbell then takes the trouble to
tell his fellow-workmen shat wages in free
trade England are lower than in the United
States But he carefully conceals the fact,
It he knew it, that wages in England have
Increased from 80 70 100 per cent since she
abandoned the high-tariff policy, and her
wages to-day are from 80 to 100 per cent
higher than in any o: the protected"
countries of continental Europe. The
truth is, wages in Europe are low because
of the density of pOpulation-the supply
is greater than the demand.
Mr.. Campbell concludes his statement
with the reckless demsgogic assertion that
the South is in favor of the Mills bill, be
cause the southern people have always
favored low wages. If Campbell knows
he knows that during the days
of slavery wages were higher in the South
than in any other section of the country,
and to. day white skilled labor is better
paid in the Southern than in the Northern
States. Mr.. Campbell is either fslsitier
or is lacking ordinary intelligence.

BRIDGEPORT.

The councilman who will have the en-
terprise TO ag,tste and work through an
ordinance to pave Bank street and get
water from Martins Ferry, will make
himself forever solid with the voters In
teliigeHeer.
That il Just right. This councilman
will not only make himself solid polit-
ically, but future generations will revive
his memory and celebrate each recurring
anniversary of his birthday. Bank street
needs paving, bat possibly not more so
than Pike street and some others. Con-
corning the water, it is an outrage that
people should he permitted TO drink the
liquid typhoid fever which is damned mp
up in front of thus city. All the solid
filth which enters the oack river stops
there till total decomposition carries it off.
Besides all this it will be much cheaper
for our people to take water from Martins
Ferry than TO pay the mule power water
works tax now levied. II is not so par
ticulsr about getting the water from
Martins Ferry as it ia to get it from some
where; but Martins Ferry is the natural
place to supply this city.

Say9 ne Is the Same nanu oA ~ EAOe'~-O
as the President
WASHINGTON, September 15.-Sscretary
Whitney to-day said to reporter, with
reference 70 his alleged intention to resign:
'There is no foundation for the statement,
nor FOR the reason last given in its sup
port, namely, that am Protectionist
and was opposed to the Presidents mes
sage on that ground, and therefore will re-
sign after exeetion. am just the same
kind of a Protectionist that the President
is, and we have not differed on that sub
iect. We have not always agreed upon
questions of policy, but our differences
OF opinion are forgotten when the occasion
is passed. No man with ordl-
pary sense could be associated
closely with the President and not
eoucede his right to control the policy OF
his administration. / am happy to ray
that no cloud has ever passed over the per-
sonal relations which existed between the
President and myself before we came here
But you can understand, suppose, that
this life leaves marks upon man. To ad.
minister a great public office properly may
look easy, but it is not. You have to bear
burdens and give your life TO it. The re-
wards are great, bat the care and strife are
great, too, and doubtless you can appreci-
ate that a man can consistently look for
ward to the day OF his relief with pleasure,
and at the same time cheerfnlly bear his
share in the contest 30 long rs be is deemed
of use That's all there is about it."

Matt Quay's disposition to provide for such
cases, have no doubt, ~ was manifested
in the Litchman and Robinson cases, and

would do the most good. As he is a good
fellow, of fine social qualities and glib of
tongue that can be made useful to the Re-
publicans of the two cities. at work that
liz pleasanter than laying brick. have no
doubt that he and some of Mr.. Quay's
