DEMOCRATIC DUTY.

The boasts of the republicans do not dis.
turb us. A careful survey of the prospects
of the democracy In this county on Tues
day convinces US that, with proper work
done at the polls, President Clevelands
majority will be at least twice what 1t was
in 1884. We have lost nothing from the
vote of that year, but have made positive
gains.
But this result and this success will not
come to US without hard and unceasing
work from now until the polls close on
Tuesday. The republicans are we'll organ
lied, and are better supplied with money
than in any campaign in ten years. This
money they propose using freely, and the
only thing democrats can do is to guard
against its corrupting influence.
The responsibility OF the outcome of this
fight should not be shifted to the shoulders
of q very few workers. but on election day,
both In cities, villages and country towns,
every democrat should become an active
worker, and by united effort get out so
great democratic vote as will teach these
people that attempting to debauch the
voters of this county does not pay.
We believe every democrat can afford to
give at least one day to active work at the
Dolls

OTTAWA DEMOCRATS.

Colonel Fullerton, Captain Cook, ana
other active republicans are again Boosting
Of making great gains In Ottawa. Hereto
fore the same prediction has been made by
them, and the result has always proven
them false prophets.
We appeal to Ottawa democrats to again
turn out and show these gentlemen that
Ottawa Is democratic city, and that when
republicans talk about republican ma"
jority in It they reckon without their host.
Let US give the whole ticket, from presi-
dent down to coroner, not less than 500 ma
jority. The thing can be done, and let us
do II. Vote the ticket without scratch
That is the way victories are won.

The aim Of the Mills bill Is to infuse In

element Of competition, which In 30 many
cases excessive protection has destroyed by
leading to the organization Of trusts, whose

CAMPAIGN OF LIES


This entire presidential campaign on the
part of the republicans has been conducted
on the principle that "A lie we'll stuck to is
as good as the truth" Recognizing the
tariff as the only important point In issue,
that party has from the beginning to tie
end represented the democratic position as
in favor of free trade and opposed to pro-
tection, claiming that the republicans alone
favored protection; whereas all but the
hopelessly ignorant among them kno~ that
the Mills bill, which is the DemOC
position, so fully recognizes and endorses
the principle of protection, that it does not
remove the tariff to the amount of half o
penny from a single article the manufac-
facture of which can be unfavorably affect
ed in the remotest degree by such reduc-
ton. On the contrary, the Mills bill gives
the manufacturer, in addition to all the
protection he can honestly ask for, the
further important advantage of free raw
materials The underlying principle of
the Mills bill, therefore, is
Adequate protection to the manufacturer
in all cases, and free raw materials, that he
may enlarge his product and thus create a
vast additional demand for labor, which of
course implies an increase of wages.
Therefore,
Whoever tells you that the democrats are
In favor of free trsde, tell him he lies.
Whoever tells you that the democrats are
opposed to protection, tell him he lies.

Wisconsin took its turn at parading the
boom of jeremiah Rusk. The Wisconsin
crowd over the Northwestern and St

pot by the Wisconsin delegation already
here. Forming in line the procession
marched to the Grand Pacific aud after a
rousing Rusk cheer dispersed. At a

sembled at tie Grand Pacific,
fifteen hundred strong, and
forming on the Clark street front started
out to do the town-headed by Clsuder's

the procession moved north on Clark to

In each of the hotels the procession
halted and gave three cheers for Jerry
Rusk. Occasionally some one would shout

and tha GROVE yelled back: "He's all
right, you bet" On passing out of the
fremont mouse, the proc ession passed
the Gresham parade going east on Lake
street, both crowds trying to out yell the
other, and Wisconsin held its own de

is such a man as Jerry Rusk, if yelling,

A MODERN INQUISI1ION

| only by moral influence. There is no
hope i'll Spain, colonial policy is as feeble
and indifferent as ever, and rs far as in
reference from Madrid is concerned,
Capt. Gen. Main has nothing to fear. All

| on by his brutal su5ordinates. Men are
arrested, tortured and confined in the
royal prison, the Castle of La Cabaua, to
| satisfy some petty grudge which a minor
otficial las against them, or because they
| refuse to bring false accusation of
crime against persons who have incurred
| official enmity. The excite ment add in
dignation of the people, and the uneasi
| ness of the government have been in
creased by brilliant stroke of enterprise
on the part of La Lucha, the great liberal
paper of the island. In somo mysterious
way, possibly by the proffer of large
bribe, La Lucha secured, about a fort
night ago, several letters from prisoners
in the Cabana. Four of these letters are
from inotfensivo persons of the laboring
class, who were tortured with thumb
screws, bound tightly with cords, terribly
beaten and abused and finally thrown into
prison. A fifth letter Is printed from a
man of some educ alton, one Jose Martinez
de Ona, who was Imprisoned in the Cabana
for having violated the press laws. He says
that certain convicts are made galley over
seers aud that they are authorized to use
in correcting the prisoners heavy club
shod at both ends with iron. De Ona as
serts that he has seen prisoners pinned to
the ground and beaten till tlIeir bodies
were covered with wounds. One prisoner
incurred this brutal treatment simply be
cause he could nothRnd over q sum of mon
ey which the overseer demanded. The
prison food is declared to be miserable,

ters is shockingly unhealthy. IL Is like
