KENNA'S SPEECH.
Some Comments by Friend and Foe On
the Effort.

the Effort
Eev York Sdr, DEM
The speech of Senator Kenna' OF West
Virginia, gives great annoyance to the he
publican organs, as it obviously did to
Senator Sherman. They call MIR. Kenna
presumptuOus and offensive for diSchare-
lug his duty to the country by exposing
the inconsistency and regeneration OF
sherman's attack upon the President. MI
Sherman was the aggressor in the eontro,
versy. The President could not himself
repei the grossly unfare assault made upon
hin, aud the West Virginia Senator as
charged an imperative duty with distln-
guished courage and ability in showing
plainly, but without bitterness, that Sen,
ator Sherman's diatribe was as unfair ana
uncandid as it was incorrect.

Who PAYS the Duties.

| Cincinnati Enquirer.
Strange as it may seem there are per.
sons possessed of ordinary intelligence
who believe that the foreigners paw the
tariff taxes, and that the importer is com
PEELED to submit to a discount to the ex-
tent of the duty imposed by the govern
ment. If this was true there would be
some excuse for maintaining high tariff.
We could compel foreigners to pay our
war debt, the current expenses of Gov
eminent, construct defenses along our
coasts, build war vessels and sustain the
army and the navy. We could afford to
be very lavish in our expenditures for inn.
proving rivers and harbors and erect post.
offices in every city, village and hamlet.
What are the plain and simple facts
which should be fully understood by
everybody; the importer Of foreign goods
before he 6nsposes of them to the whole
sale dealer must pay the duties at the
Custom House OF course he must
add to the prices abroad the transporta.
ton, insurance, interest, profit and duties
paid When the wholesale dealer sells to
the retail merchant he adds his rent, clerk
hire, interest and profits. Then the re.
taller must have from his individual Gus
toners what the article cost him with
pay for his trouble, expenses and profits.

cloth he must pay the 45 per cent duty

Harrison and the Labor Organizations.

St Paul Globe. -s
The labor unions are already taking
action Ia regard to repudiating the Chica.
60 platform and ticket and il must be
particularly discouraging to General Har-
rison to observe that the first organized
fn6vepsnt that has, been inaguratod in
this direction is in his o&h State It is
natural, however, that it should begin
there, because Harrison's position on the
labor question is better understood by
his own folks than by strangers. His
Chinese record is q part of the history of
the country, but there are q great many
things in connection with his anti-labor
record that are not known outside of
his own State. The workIngmen of In
dana know thar during his long residence
In that State and his active participation
in public affairs General Harrison has
never given them a word of encourage
ment or manifested the least interest in
the cause of labor What he has done
and said has been in opposition to them
and TO their organizations. With his aris-
tocratic ideas he held to the opinion that
labor had no rights which the upper class.
es should respect His identification with
corporate interests has bopnd him to the
opinion that labor Organizations are in
imical 10 society and that they ought to
be broken up These opinions are best
known to those who have been brought
in daily contact with the stiited Republi-
can candidate for the Presidency. There
fore il is reasonable that the organized
labor opposition to his candidacy should
begin in his own State 1t was the labor
vote which defeated Harrison when a
candidate for Governor of Indiana in 1886,
and the labor vote will defeat him in that
State in his candidacy for the Presidency
this year.

eign article goes TO the home Manufacture

In the transaction.
If the amount Of the purchase was $40,
80 in the one case goes into the treasury,
in the other is a bounty to the manufact-
urer to protect him from competition
with the pauper labor Of Europe If, as
is claimed, the imposition Of the duty
cheapens the price Of the goods there Is
protection TO the home producer and no
benefit accrues either 20 the manufacture
ers or his laborers. If the duties are SO
adjusted as to derive reasonable amount
for the support Of Government and at the
same time encourage home industries, the
purchaser has no cause of complaint; but
if in paying an increased price for the
article the Government gets nothing, but
the extra sum Iaid finds its way into the
pocket Of private individual. it is an
imposition.
A tax for revenue is legitimate and
proper; but tax for protection, which
furnishes no revenue. is undemocratic
Such legislation creates and fosters mon

New orleans Picayune
The St. Louis Globe Democrat is urging
that Republican speakers shall be sent
South to canvass the country in the Presi-
dental campaign. 1t says, ''the Southern
people will then find that the Republican
is not making any frantic efforts to hold
the negro, but that, on the contrary. he
would be exceedingly well pleased if the
negro should turn in and give the
Southern Democracy lift, provided this
change were brought about BY legitimate
means In fact the Southern people
would learn that the Republican, in his
leading attributes and characteristics. is
very much like themselves, that he is as
firmly convinced as they are of the in.
telleetual superiority of the Caucasian to
the African, and that he has the same in
terest as they in the progress and pros
perity of the country" This sounds well,
very well; but of course no Republican
speaker will preach any such doctrine
The Republican party is sectional party,
based entirely upon the issues OF the
civil war. II has neither principles nor
dogmas that do not depend on the ancient
sectional hate. Should il abandon them
1t would have no longer reason to exist.
We would be glad TO see National cam
paign made on questions of public policy
and craftsmanship, with all bloody
features eliminated. but that Is too much
to expect, The Republican party is a
sectional party, propagation of sectional
hate, and IL must of necessity make the

Allen G. Thurman.

New York Star.
Nothing could be more ungracious.
more undignified, more indefensible than
Blaine's attack on Allen g. Thurman He
can have been moved TO it by no other
consideration than the desire to sustain
his own reputation for audacity. He was
kind enough TO attempt TO patronize the
Grand Old Roman after this fashion:
However amiabfe man he may be,
and however able he may be--the more
amia5le and the more able. the worse will
be his influence against the true interests
of the American people"
Mr.. Thurman's influence has been as
uniformly exercised on behalf of the true
Interests of the American people" as that
of James g. Blaine has been exerted
against them and on behalf of other
interests that he has long served. We
owe to Dir. Thurman two of the wisest
measures passed by Congress during the
present generation. and it is proyidential
that he should come before the people as
candidate for one of their highest offices
at time when the country has reason to
realize the benefits of his prophetic states
manship. The Thurman anti-monopoly
railroad bill has saved the United States
hundreds of millions of dollars, and the
anti Chinese legislation which he camp
Toned and and carried. in spite of the
opposition of Harrison and other monopo-
ly Senators is the only barrier that has
checked disastrous and overwhelming
Mopgolian invasion. James G. Blaine
united with the carpet-bag Senators and
Congressman in opposing the Thurman
bill. He was not looking for the true
interests of the American people. but
for the interests of the monopolies Thur
man then opposed, and which now place
their hope in Blaine and his party. Above
all things, with such Vice Presidential
candidate as Morton standing by his side,
il was the height Of audacious impudence
to provoke CONTRAST with the Grand Old
Roman.
