Hints for the Kitchen.

Among the cheap and nutritious
meats may be mentioned tripe.
Twice a week, each time in different
way, this dish would be acceptable
to many. Where the, meet dish is
light a cheese or macaronia may be
served with it thus keeping up the re-
CURED amount of nourishment.
Lentils also contain so much nitro
genous food that very light or
made-over meats should accompany
them. Variety will be found to be
more economical, at the same time
more beneficial to health and appe-
tlte than the usual rounds of the
American housewife. When a Quart
can of tomatoes is opened for soup,
one half only should be used, and
with it quart of stock (the latter
costs nothing, if all the stock mate
rails are saved, a little suet, -four,
onion and bay leaf, makes a delight
full dinner SOUP. and quite enough
for family of six. The few pieces of
bread left from breakfast may be e,nt
into squares and toasted to serve
with it. The remaining half of the
tomatoes should be put into a bowl
or jar and used next day for sauce,
scalloped, or if mixed with okra and
rice will make nice dish for lunch.
DO not waste even a slice of tomato
or leaf OF cabbage, and at the end
OF the year you will be well paid

A Great District.

The banner congressional district
OF that United States is the Fourth of
Minnesota. The man who represents
that district in congress has con
stltuency such as no colleague can
boast. When, following the census
of 1880, an apportionment was made
placing ST. Paul and Minneapolis in
the same district, their combined
census population was put at less
than 100000. Now the man who
speaks for these cities alone at Wash
ington has more than 100000 peo-
pie behind him. When we add to this
interpolation Of all the counties
included, we get an enormous total.
Returns which are pretty nearly exact
show that the aggregate vote in this
district at the last election was some
thingover8O, 900. This snearlythree
times as greatas the entire vote OF
the State Of Georgia in the congress
sional election of 1884. 1t is nearly
half as much more as the entire vote
OF the State of Florida, either in the
election of 1886 or for president in
1884. 1t is greater than the entire
vote cast for president in 1884 by
Colorado, Delaware, Florida Nevada.
Oregon, Rhode Island or Vermont,
and almost the same as the entire
vote ofNeW Hampshire Even at this
election, with it's intensity of interest
and the unprecedented fullness of it's
vote, there are several states in which
fewer ballots were cast than in the
Fourth district of Minnesota alone.

presentation of half a million or more

Republican KnownothingIsm,

We find the following in the Lancaster
(Pa.) NetO Era, strong republican paper
and an ardent supporter OF Gen. HAIR
RIsoN:
Recently The Chicago methodist ministers
made statement that the reason suitable laws
cannot be made and enforced in that city is
because 'four-tfths OF the population is for
eign." That is the secret oil all the anarchy,
crime and intemperance in that city. Who
ever heard of the Chinese being addicted to
anarchy, crime and intemperance, and yet we
drive them out of the country for imaginary
grievances, while we receive with open arms
and extend the right of suffrage TO these miser-
able foreigners OF whom the Chicago clergy
men complain.
The old know-nothing spirit will crop
out in the republican press, even when
an election is pending. Now, the fact is
that the foreign-born population of Chi
cago has contributed very greatly to the
growth and prosperity of that city, and
without it Chicago would be to-day
comparatively an Insignificant city. In
every branch of trade and industry, in all

while we discourage it. The largest con-
sumers OF cotton goods are the people OF
tropical and semi-tropical countries. En-
gland buys what they have to sell and
pays for it in cotton goods made by her
workingmen. The United States refuses to
trade with other peoples, excepting in such
things as We must have and cannot posi-
bly, produce. Thus we deprive our manu-
facturers of millions of customers of
whose trade England gets the benefit, and
we close our mills and factories four
months out of the year, on an average,
and keep our workingmen idle when they
might be employed, and all this in order
that few rich manufacturers may make
excessive profits in the home market.
With free raw materials and a moderate
tariff on manufactured goods, our manu-
facturers can fairly divide the markets
of the world with their English COM

the walks of professional life. in all the
fields of enterprise and effort, in Chicago,
as elsewhere, citizens of foreign birth or
extraction hold prominent rank. Many
of the leading bankers, merchants, man
ufacturers, clergymen, lawyers, physicians
and journalists in Chicago are Germans,
Irishmen or Scandinavians. The great
mass of these nationalities are thrifty,
industrious, law-abiding citizens. There
are dangerous elements in the foreign
born population of that city to be sure,
but they are in a small minority, and for
what they really are, not they themselves,
but the social, political and industrial sys-
TENS which have cursed their native lands
for centuries are responsible.
The New Era comparison of our Chinese
immigrants to those who come from
Europe to the disadvantage of the latter,
accords very well with the Harri-
sonian idea, but it is repugnant to all who
realize the vast gulf that separates the
Monaghan from the Teuton, the Celt or
the Scandinavian. These latter, at their
best, are the peers in every respect of the
Englishman or the American. At their
worst they contain the material out of
which good American citizens may be
made. But the Chinese of the class that
come to this country are utterly incapable
of comprehending our laws or institutions
do not assimilate themselves with our ma
tional life and do not and cannot take root
in our soil.

Must We Have a Rich Mans Govern
ment?

TIE SENTINEL believes Il is unrepubli-
can, undemoeratic, un-American, inn
moral, reasonable, cowardly and brutal
for an employer of labor to discharge men
from his service because of their political
opinions.
Such practices have the effect, and are
intended to have the effect, of giving
wealth the absolute control of the govern
ment, and of reducing the political status
of workingmen as low as it is in many
monarchies and despotisms of the old
world.
In all the closely contested states great
corporations and capitalists are engaged
to-day in intimidating, threatening, bull
doing and coaxing their workingmen to
vote the ticket nominated by and for the
great monopolies of the country. Various
expedients are resorted to in order to
coerce the workingmen. Those who are
conspicuous or active as democrats are
ostentatiously discharged as a warning
to their associates that they would better
vote the republican ticket, or at least
keep quiet, if they do not want the bread
and butter taken out of their mouths.
Employees who identify themselves with
the monopoly party, join republican
clubs, march in republican professions,
etc., etc, are promoted, or their wages adj
vanced, or some other mark of distin-
guished favor shown them by their en-
ployers. 1t is announced that if CLEvE-
LAND and THURMAN are elected the men
will be put on half time, or their wages
reduced, or, perhaps, that they will be
discharged en- masse. BY these and other
methods it is systematically sought to
bulldoze the workingmen into supporting
the monopoly ticket.
We say very broadly that no Christian,
no patriot, nobody in short but selfish
INSCRIPTIONS, bigoted partisan would
"stoop SO low" as to attempt to coerce the
political action of his fellow citizens be-
cause he chances to be buying their labor
from them.
THE SENTINEL has a good many men en-
ployed in its mechanical departments.
The proprietors of this paper are, of
course, deeply interested in the election of
CLEVELAND and THURMAN. They are
especially anxious that Indiana should be
carried by the democratic ticket. Yet
they have never even inquired as TO the
political opinions OF any person connected
with this office, whose duties are not of a
political nature. THE SENTINEL practices
what it breaches.
If American workingmen are to be
coerced into voting as their employers
dictate, farewell long farewell-to the
government "of the people, by the people
and for the people," which ABRAHAM LIN
coin celebrated. A government of rich
men, by rich men and for rich men, will
take its place. The republic, in a word,
will be supplanted by plutocracy.

A CORRESPONDENT at Spencer, Ind sends
us a list of manufactured articles said TO be
sold cheaper in New York than in London
and says: Democrats here want TO know, if
this is so, why we object to removing the duty
on them" Tell them the fact that the articles
named are cheaper in New York than in Lon
don shows that the tariff duty is not an added
tax, paid by the consumer, as the the free
traders claim. Tell them, further, that be-
cause we can manufacture an article as cheap,
or cheaper, than foreign manufacturers is no
reason why we should let down the bars for
foreign manufacturers to come in and dispute
our markets with us.-JoUrndl.
The democrats of Spencer are all right,
and the Journals answer is no answer at
all. II there are any commodities which
can be produced cheaper in this country
than in England, it is the hight Of alb
surdity to say that they need protection

Watch the Unmarried voters.

The republican managers have been
pooh-poohing the charges of the demo-
cratic managers that they were importing
negro voters and preparing for wholesale
corruption. We presume they will not
have the cheek to treat in similar man
ner the open declaration of Mr.. JOHN @.
New TO the same effect. Mr.. New was in
terviewed on his way to Colorado whittier
he has gone to raise funds among the
Denver and Leadville miliionaires) st
Omaha, and in his interview, published in
the Omaha Republican, Sept. p, occurs the
following:
Mr.. NEW Is himself a very conservative man,
and is not given to making rash statements,
therefore, the words OF encouragement he
brings will make western republicans feel good.
He says complete poll OF the voters in Indi-
ana has been taken. They know there Just how
big the float is, and '''you can depend on 1t we
will not lose any of that element"
There you have the republican program
in nutshell, and it is well-known that
elaborate preparations have been made te
carry it out. The democratic committe,
has been for several weeks in possession
Of the details Of the plan, which is a secre
organization of ten trusted men in eac'
township who pledge themselves each to
buy one democratic vote. A number OF
these men have been spotted, and among
them are numerous republicans VIII
make pretensions to morality and decency.
We give fair warning that these men will
be arrested and prosecuted for their
crimes as soon as they come within the
law. There will be no doodle" campaign
in this state if the law can stop it.

The foregoing are the exact fact
Ii Must Sfon.

We want the facts as to every case Of
political intimidation or coercion of work
inglnen in Indiana. The facts must be
well verified. We do not want to do any
man, rich or poor, an injustice in these
columns. But when the evidence con-
vinces us that any manufacturer, mine
owner, railroad official, or other employer
has attempted by improper means to in
fluence the political action of his en-
ployes, we shall certainly give the facts to
the world, and call upon the people OF the
country to visit the offenders with their
displeasure in a way that will touch them
where they are most sensitive-in their
pockets.
In this connection we wish to say that

ingman of good character just as highly
as it does that of a millionaire manu-
facturer or of railroad president. We
don't think the mon who has "a barrel Of
money" is any more apt to tell the truth
than the man who works for wages. So
let it be understood that The SENTINEL
does not and will not discredit aftdavits
on the ground that those who make them
are workingmen, after the fashion of the
Indianapolis Journal, which, whenever a
laboring man takes his oath TO a statement
that is not pleasing to it, demands that
some responsible party" come forward
and "father IT," BY a responsible
party" the Journal means a banker, law
yer or capitalist OF some kind. THE SEN
TrNEL estimates men differently "Worth

The bulldozing Of workingmen in
Indiana must stop.

President Cleveland and the Nor

President Cleveland and the MormonS
One of the greatest achievements OF the
democratic party since 1t regained control
of the government has been its successful
treatment of the mormon problem. For
twenty-four years the republicans
struggled with it, but they made little
progress toward its solution. Once every
four years they met in convention and
denounced the twin relic" But when
they finally went out of power, the twin
relic" was still on hand, and very robust
relic it was, too.
But there isn't much left of it now,
simply because President CLEVELAND has
compelled the enforcement of the laws in
Utah, which his republican predecessors
either could not or would not do.
Prior to the present administration, tho
whole number of convictions for
polygamy in Utah were two, under the
laws of 1862 and 1882.
Under Mr.. CLEvELAND's administration
there have been fourteen convictions for
polygamy and $50 convictions for unlaw-
full cohabitation under the laws of con-
gress. These facts appear from an official
report of the u. s. district at
torney of Utah, furnished to the depart
ment of justice in pursuance of a resolu-
ton of the house of representatives.
Not over dozen or so of mormons have
been pardoned by the president, and these
were mostly very old or inirm men. In
many, if not all, the cases OF pardon, ex-
ecutive clemency was petitioned for by
leading citizens and officials of Utah, in
Guiding, in several of the cases, the re-
publican ex-judge and ex-district at
torney.
These facts speak for themselves. The
institution OF polygamy is giving its last
gasps in Utah. There are no more plural
marriages in Salt Lake City and very few
in the territory. Five years more of such
progress as has been made during the last
three years and there will be scarcely q
vestige of the twin relic" in all Utah.
And yet the republican organs are try
ing to make the people believe that the
mormons have been favored by President
CLEVELAND, and that they are contribut-
ing money to the democratic campaign
fund.

INDIANA LINCOLN LEAGUE
Room No. q DENIs0S House,
INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 1888.
DEAR SIR--Is there not some democratic
voter your club can win over (?
/ would suggest that your executive COM
mittee, or a committee of wise and dis
Greet men appointed for the purpose,
choose from among the democrats in your
section some two or more of them and system
atically work OWN them over Much depends
upon your discretion. Work diligently
in every direction, but work with pur-
pose Yours truly,
w. III. SMITH, Secretary.
This man SMITH is the Indiana cores
pendent of the Cincinnati Commercial
Gazette. He is fellow of unsavory repu-
tation, and has been denounced as ras-
cal by the leading republican papers of
the state-nevertheless he is an intimate
friend of Ben HARRISON and is understood
TO possess that gentleman's confidence in
an unusual degree. His letter, which is
being sent to republicans all over the
state, is an unblushing and bare-faced
advertisement of contemplated bribery.
One doesn't need to read between the
lines" to discover what SMITH is driving
at. He wants the members of the Lincoln
league to look out for purchasable
votes. He tells them so in Lam
guage which can not be mis-
understood. He asks them TO "work
Systematically" to win over democratic
voters. Much" he says, depends upon
your discretion" "Work diligently in
every direction, but work with pur-
pose"
This letter is only one of the many
proofs that are accumulating that the re-
publicans are preparing to repeat the
fraud of 1880 in Indiana. SMITH was put
forward in this knavish business because
he has no reputation to lose, and in the
event of criminal prosecutions for the
corrupt work in which he is only obeying
the instructions of others, he will no
doubt be left by his confederates to shout
der the punishment alone.
Indiana democrats will see from this
letter the kind of thing they will have to
meet at the coming election. Let them be
on their guard, and spare no efforts to
circumvent the villainoua plot5 of the
enemy, and bring the rascals to punish
ment.
It should be stated that soma Of the re-
publicans TO whom SMITH sent this letter
are highly indignant that he should have
supposed they could be used in so base an
enterprise. They are honest men, not
withstanding their political error, and are
dumbfounded at the revelation of the
knavery of the republican managers,
made in the Smith letter. Some of them,
having been convinced by this perform
ance, that their party is hopeiessly cor
rupt, have decided to vote for CLEVELAND
and THURMAN.

against the English manufacturer" and
it is the very quintessence of idiocy to say
that Getting down the bars" would cause
the foreign manufacturers to come in and
dispute our markets" with us. A ten
year-old child of ordinary capacity knows
that no manufacturer on earth is going to
send his goods three thousand miles across
the sea to be sold in competition with
goods produced cheaper than he can pro-
duce them. The democrats of Spencer
plainly know what they are talking about.
