PLANTATION the Down East Republicans can
give of the following sledgehammer figures
used by Mr.. Carlisle: sin 1857 all of the New
England members voted for a still further re-
duction of 30 per cent. from what they had
called the ruinously low tariff of 1876. In
the free trade period, as the Republicans
called the decade from 1850 to 1860 the wool
manufactured product increased 46 per cent.
and wages 81 per cent. The increased pro-
duct in New England was 60 per cent. In
hosiery the product increased 421 per cent.
In cotton the product of New England in
creased Il per cent. In boots and shoes, upon
which the duty had been reduced lG per cent,
the increase in New England was So per
cent; the product in 1860 in New England
was more than the entire product of the Tn
ion in 1880"

Labor and Democracy.


From the y. Y. D1iiy Ne,cs
The paramount mission of the rehabilitated
Democracy is to serve the interests of the
working people of our country. The inten-
ton and fundamental principle of our form of
government is to give honest labor its fullest
opportunity to command the wages due to it.
1t is in that sign that Democracy must con
quer in the political arenas of this Republic
The supreme condition is that the interests of
labor must be served by the Government of
the Republic and the governments of the
States. Fortunately for the Democratic party
President Cleveland's Administration has
been so nearly faultless, even as against Re-
publican criticism, that at the threshold of its
reconquest of power the Democracy is sus.
tanned by a popular support, the voice of
which has no parallel in American politics.

The great majority of Americans suffeI
from tile war tariff, but on none is the load
so heavy as on the farmer. The benefeiaries
of the tariff feed and grow fat off him. The
high duties do him no good, for he sells his
wheat at price determined in the markets
Of Liverpool. An import tax of 81 bushel
on wheat would profit the California farmer
not one cent. The worlds demand regulates
his prices inexorably. Without any protec-
ton from the tariff, the farmer is systemati
caly heeced by the shears of every protected
industry. He is plundered under the guise
of law. If the farmers of the land really knew
how large a share of their incomes is taken
from them in this way, they would at once be
up in organized rebellion to do battle at the
polls.-,San Francisco Examiner

To Increase the Poor Mans Burden
From tie Chicaqo Times.

From the Chicago Times.
The supporters of the existing tariff, with
out other changes than may be necessary to
harmonize its provisions" propose to har-
monize the provisions of the existing tariff,
not by taking any taxes off the poor man
back, but by piling on more taxes. They pro-
pose to take off S120,0OO,09O from such
''necessaries" as tobacco, beer and whisky,
and make good the deficit which would result
by laying more taxes on the poor mans back.
The taxes they propose to abolish do not
carry with them license to SOME people to
collect private taxes from other people.
They bring into the Treasury all that they
take out of the pockets of the people who use
liquors and tobacco. The taxes they desire
to impose to make up the deficit of $4,000,
600 which would result from the repeal of
the internal taxes would take from the people
not only $50, 600, 900 for the Treasury, but at
least $50, oOO, 900, and probably 500, 900, 900,
more for the exclusive benefit of capitalists
engaged in favored branches of production.

Another Swindle.

Sharpers are travelling through the country
with new confidence game with which they
are fleeing farmers. The game is to take
orders for groceries at ruinously low prices.
The goods are delivered by the carload, each
mans purchase wrapped up in separate pack
ages marked with his name. Collections are
made at once. The victim on opening his
first package finds it to consist of adulterated
goods and in some instances almost worthless
stuff. 1t is estimated that the swindlers clear
from 5000 to $500 on each carload thai they
SELL Of course it is tc those farmers who
cannot afford to take newspaper and who
are 50 full of wisdom they think strangers are

home dealers, who are the Victims Of these

The organization of Democratic clubs com

state OF Philadelphia, is likely to prove very
paign. They have well defined principles to
advocate, in harmony with the march OF the
times, and principles that appeal to the new
voters particularly. The young men will lead
the Democratic column this year. A national
convention of clubs has been called TO meet
at Baltimore on July 4. This will be after
the nomination, when the party will be ripe
for effective organization, The Republican
clubs are wasting their energies in champion
ing particular candidates, which was the
thunder of taking the field too early.
