A FOUR MILLION DEFICIT.

Mr.. Cleveland, after an incubation
of three years, came from the Demo-
cratic nest with hilarious cackle
over his one free trade egg. He
cackled and all his free trade brood
cackled in concert, over that one egg.
True. said Cleveland, it is only one
egg. but it is a wonderful egg. Out
of ii is to come the chick that 1t TO
eat up our dangerous surplus. This
"surplus," said Cleveland, with his
one idea, is an awful, dangerous
wooden horse that soon will destroy
us. We must-yes, we must, one
and all, rise up, en- mass, and heave
this "sURPLUs"-thisi Infamous war
tax svstem-this ruinous system OF
protection, that is bursting our money
cribs, into the sea. He raved
about the perils of that surplus"
like one insane. Thereupon Scott.
Carlisle and Mills rushed up with a
bill-a free trade bill-the same one
which Cleveland had cackled over as
free trade egg. 1t was porcelain
one, however, and one which some
expert free trade clerks had prepared
for democratic use. Cleveland cackles
out. sit is a condition and rot theory
that confronts u.s." and so cackled
Mills.
Now what was all this fuss and
feathers about? Why, Cleveland de-
IL bn+
dangerous surplus in our treasury
which was grinding the people into
poverty. He asserted that the presen
system of protection, which has made
his administration prosperous, was ie-
Called robbery; that there would be
surplus of Sl20, 100000 annually.
Well. perhaps there would have been
surplus of some kind, had he kept
his promises Of reform and re-
trenchment but instead of reform
and economy, his administration has
cost almost 500, 000,00 annually more
than Mr.. Arthur's, which democrats
denounced as corrupt and eXtraVagant,
and now instead of "surplus' we
have a DEFICIT. The Sun, demo-
cratic paper, admits that the bills
already passed and in the hands of
Cleveland, (which he must approve or
cause the suspension of some depart
ment to meet the expenses of the
fiscal year to close June 3Oth, 1889,
amount to 1922 OOO, 900, and that the
estimated revenue is S41S, 900, and
that the deficit will be S4,OO0,OOO!
will the people return to the White
House by their votes a man who
boasts OF $l2O DOC, 900 Surplus and gives
us instead a 100000 deficit. We
have no use for free trade which such
laundering calculations as Cleveland,
Scott, and Mills have given us, and
all of which Mr.. Savers swallowed
without question. Let us have IA
change. Give us Belknap, wide
awake man.

REPUBLICAN PARTY VS.. DEMO
CRATE PARTY

1t is said that comparisons are
odious, and still our democratic
friends, more especially its free trade
wing, keep on making them. In their
estimation protection is legal rob-
berry" and of course all prOtectiOnists
are either robbers or aiders and
abettors of robbers. Let us see how the
two parties stand, because parties,
like individuals, must be judged by
their acts. Compare Illinois with Ken
lucky, as the former has been re-
publican state for the past thirty-two
wears, while the latter has been a
democratic state for this some time.
During that period there has been no
defalcation of any state official, but
how is it with Kentucky? Compare
Iowa with Ala bama, and our demo-
cratic friends must confess to big pee
culations in the state. Compare Mich
igan with Tennessee, and the defalca-
tions again are all on the democratic
side. Compare any republican state
with any democratic state, and our
democratic friends will not find any
thing to boast Of The republican
party came into power in 1861, and
without making any reflections as to
the loyalty of the then democratic
party, or to the causes of our present
national debt we would sim
ply remark that Mr.. Buchan
ans secretary of the treasury
Mr.. Cobb had so shelled out the treas
ury that his Golfers were empty, and
he without funds, and he hawking
United States bonds in the New York
market at Il per cent. This was the
Condition that confrOn ted" oul
first republican secretary of the treas
ury. The republicans paid billions o
expenses to main tain the war and pre-
serve the union, and then paid a bill
lion of our nations debt after the war
resumed specie payments agalns
the com bined resistance of our demo
cratic friends-the enemy; placed ouI
four per cent bonds twenty-five pei
cent above par, and over three pei
bonds at par with the democrats
like contrary oxen, always holding
back. This is not all; when tn,
money for our bonds was needed, they
did all they could to discredit them il

steady, but the list sagged OF Small frAc-

there Was any business to notice, but the
movement WAS Of short duration, and the
most intense dizziness oyerspread the list.
The market finally closed very dull and
