The Baltimore Sun of Saturday last says

The Baltimore Sun of Saturday last says:
The Democratic headquarters of the State
central committee at Barnum's Hotel are daily
visited by all the leading spirits of the party.
Hon. Stevenson Archer, the chairman, is con-
stantly on hand. The State central and city
executive committees are now portioning out
their fields of labor, so that they will not tres
pass on each others territory in conducting
the campaign. Mr.. Archer says that tariff
reduction literature will be scattered broad
cast. He says that he has not so far heard of
any assertions from the Democratic ranks on
account of the partys tariff-reform policy. A
prominent Republican merchant of this city
told him few days ago that he would sup
port Cleveland because the country business
interests demanded his re. election. A caller
at the headquarters from one of the Eastern
Shore counties says that Mr.. Cleveland s
tarif,reduction policy is gaining many recruits
in that section of the State. Similar reports
come from other parts of the State.

A forty per cent. dividend has been de-
clared on the capital stock of the Elgin
Watch Company, and .forty-tcO and halt
per cent. on the stock of the Essix Cotton
Mills, at Newburyport, Massachusetts,. This
is about four times as much as would be fair
and equitable, and if the manufacturers were
honest in the demand for protection in the
interest of labor, thirty per cent. in each case
would have been given to the men engaged in
these establishments. Manufacturer as a rule,
however, will not voluntarily give up any part
of their big dividends, and are in vigorous
opposition to even FIVE per cent. reduction,
in the interest of consumers, as proposed by
the Mills bill. With these large dividends,
and an almost universal opposition to an in
crease of wages by manufacturers, mechanics
and laboring men can easily see how much
labor is protected" Protection protects
the manufacturer, but the consumer is OPP
pressed, and included among the consumers
are the very laborers employed by the manu-
facturers.

Gen. Grant, in his sixth annual message,
dated December eth, 1874, suggested to Con-
gress the propriety of readjnsting the tariff,
and advocated putting fine woods, dyes, ETC.,
on the free list. Garfield favored tariff revi-
sion and reduction, and Arthur twice recon-
mended the same. Secretaries Folger and
McCulloeh, have each advocated tariff reduc-
ton, yet the latter day saints of the Republi-
can party declare in national convention they
favor free whisky and free tobacco rather than
reduce the tariff on necessities.

Second Congressional District.

The Baltimore Argus, in speaking of the
outlook in the several congressional districts,
says:
The fight in the Second Congressional Dis
trict is even more positively certain for our
side. We have a most acceptable candidate
in Hon. Herman Stump, who is not only a
gentleman acknowledged ability, talent and
capacity, but who has also had experience in
legislation not only as member of the Mary
land Legislature but also as having been hon
ored as the President CT the State Senate.
1t is simply question of majority, and we
want to see the Second Congressional District
give Herman Stump a majority of 1000 in the
November election.
The Democratic advocate. [volume] (Westminster, Md.) 1865-1972, 1888-08-18
The Issue.

The Democratic national platform demands
reduction of unnecessary taxation and re-
duction of the surplus in the treasury. The
Democratic National Convention, TO that end,
endorsed the Mills bill, and that bill is an
embodiment of the platform in practical
way.
The Republican national convention de-
cIared that the party would abolish the whole
internal revenue rather than surrender any
part of the protective system.
These national conventions were the au-
thoritative bodies of their respective parties.
They were composed of delegates fresh from
the people, and were commissioned with au-
thority to declare the principles and policy of
their parties, and they alone had that au-
thority.
The issue, then, is lower taxes, as against
high taxes; free wool against free whisky;
cheaper food and clothing against high boun-
ties to manufacturers, already so gorged that
it is proposed to ''fry the fat out of them for
party purposes.
No action of the Republican Senate nor the
declarations of the "Uncrowned King can
change the issue. What the Senate may do
will be only the individual acts of a faction,
and the utterances of Mr.. Blaine will be those
of one who was repudiated by the people four
years ago, and turned down by the protests of
the better element of his own party in the re-
cent National Republican Convention.
The Republicans, seeing the drift of public
sentiment in favor of free raw materials and
cheaper food and clothing, and the favor by
which the Mills bill is being received by the
laborer, mechanic, professional man, and even
by some manufacturers, would like to ignore
their platform and assume position in accord
with public sentiment in order to arrest de-
lection in their ranks, but they cannot do it.
They cannot change their platform, and hence
their position, except through the agency ola
national convention. No other body has the
power to formulate its principles and lay down
its policy, and the party must be held to its
platform as adopted at Chicago.
