MINISTER WEST RETIREs.

The President has directed the Secretary
,ofState to notify Minister West that since
the English Government declines or ne
elects to act upon his case, which has been
laid before the Crowns Cabinet by our
Minister, his (Lerd Sackville's) absence
from Washington IS England's representa-
tive is more desirable than his presence.
This is nothing more than the President
had to 60. 1t is ordinary procedure. Il
cannot in any respect aid the Presidents
,camp&igR-in fact, It Will but draw atten-
ten anewand more critically to the fact that
Grover Cleveland, by his free-trade mes
sage and his party's free-trade bill, has
brought all this trouble to pass, and that
hr Cleveland and his party really do no
seem TO knoW-or at least they assume not
to know-that their doctrines are free
trade theories. This, too, in Ike face of
the unanimous testimony Of the English
press and people that what Grover Cleve-
land and RogergQ. Mills preach is tSothing
more nor less than free trade.

ent. 1 am constrained by a sense OF public dlty
to interpose."
Indeed what sense of public duty is
involved in the mind of the lover of the
Union, in keeping the Union-savers out of
beggary? Can we over-pay the men who
did not buy substitutes? Can We not spare
from the surplus as much as S96 year
for Eve or six years, for the old fellows
who gave the flower of vigorous youth to
their country? They lost health and
strength and risked life in defense of the
nation, and at this day are told by sub
stitute buyer that because they happily
escaped Democratic bullets in the field they
must not, when chilly days come, hope for
help from the Republic. They may die
in the gutter, rot in the corral, or beg
from door to door in rags, but "a sense of
public duty *"-out upon the
craftsmanship that in this manner Sen
courages" our young men to stand forward
when the nation calls for heroes to resist
foreign foes, quell domestic turbulence or
crush rebellion.

The Republican party has always been
the friend Of the soldier. Well might it
be said that republics are ungrateful if
the policy of Cleveland were the express
sion of the popular viii of the people,
Los angeles Times.
The fact that Mr. Blaine's Chicago
speech knocked the Notwithstanding off
the Wall-street barn of the Administra-
ton is shown by the squirming and squeal-
| ing that is going on. Several reputed re-
plies are to be made to Mr. Blaine.-CiR-
cjRRati Commercial Gazette.
The report that Cleveland will run again
! for Mayor of Buffalo next year is said to be
without foundation. He will hardly have
time to gain legal residence in that city
of which he was once a citizen, and he
probably realizes, also, that he would be
defeated at the polls were he candidate

President Cleveland has found time
enough to write letter indorsing baseball
as the National American game, but not
enough to write one indorsing David Ben

Governor of New York. Mr.. Cleveland is
letter writer, but he can hardly be said to
be a complete letter Philadelphia
Press.
The fact that stares in the face the West
ern farmer and laborer, and, indeed, al
classes that are borrowers, is that while
any approach toward free trade shrink
wages and prices, it does not shrink debts
They remain the same. The question is
How is the Western workingman going tC
pay the 81 600 that he owes on his home
when wages have shrunk 10, % or 80 pei
cent? He has incurred debt that hold,
remorselessly for years to come, and now
free trade proposes to shrink his power tC
pay that debt.-Siour City Journal.
Mr.. Cleveland is a reformer with ven
geance and big K. He is going to sigr
the Cherokee Indian bill, in which J. Nil
ton Turner is interested to the tune O
$4,000. This $4,000 is to pay the afore
said Turner, who is a negro, for organizing
and running an alleged National Conven

EDS. RECORD UNION: l am young man
and thought knew q little about my coun-
trys history, but was psralyzed last night
by hearing a Democratic orator say the
Democratic party fought the war Of the
Rebellion-that a major part Of the Union
army was composed of Democrats.
do know that in ali ray acquaintance
every one who joined the Union army was a
Republican, and in this banner Democratic
county, where there are two or three DEM
ocrsts to every Republican, the Grand
Army Post of thirty members, representing
fifteen States and thirty regiments, contains
but two or three Democrats. Is there any
Significance in that? / ais know that the
great draft riot took place in Democratic
Nav York City.
Can you tell me how many OF each polit-
icsl party enlisted in the Union army? Is
there any method by which the correct
figures can be reached? DEMOCRAT.
I'VE are not awsre that any reliable
statement or estimate has been made as 10
the relative number OF Republicans and
Democrats that composed the Union army.
1t is a well-known fact, however, that the
larger portion were Republicans, and that
evcry man IN the rebel army pGS Democrat.

SLAVERY OR FREE TRADE.
a Statement That the Second Was the
Cause of the Rebellion.

Cause of the Rebellion.
The Vevay (Ind) Rereiue publishes
report and comments editorially on
speech delivered at Democratic meeting
in that town few nights ago by Judge
Warren Montfort, of Owentown, Ky. The
ReUeile says the Judge commenced his
speech by saying he had been in the Con-
federate army, went right in when it COM
menced and stayed until the surrender
He said that he was in a post OIL to
know, and that there was wrong impress
sion as to what caused the war. 1T was
generally believed that slavery was the
cause of the war, but it is mistake. 1t
was the tariff burdens" After assuring
his hearers again that as an ex-Confederate
soldier he knew what he was talking about,
he said he wanted it distinctly understood
thrt he did not fight for slavery, adding:
81 never owned slave in my life. /
fought to throw off the tariff burdens"
He then proceeded to define the position
of the South in regard to tariff and the
real cause that led the South to try to
establish the Confederacy. 'The South
knew that slavery would be abolished, but
having to sell their cotton in free trade
countries, were determined to abolish the
tariff. We stood then as we stand now"
This was the keynote of his speech, the
entire burden and argument of which was
to show that the interests of the South and
West were identical, and opposed to those
of New England and the East, the former
being agricultural and the latter manu-
featuring He also argued that a tariff
law was unconstitutional and protection
was form Of tyranny which, "if there be
no other form of relief, there must be a
resort to arms" That this unreconstructed
Kentucky rebel should find willing listen
ers for that kind of talk among Indiana
Democrats shows how thoroughly the
virus of free trade and States rights has
permeated the party. 1t is the tie that
binds the solid South.-Indianapolis Jour
