The Hon. Jacob Yost, in his court
house speech, said one way to spend the
surplus in the Treasury would be to pay
$4,000 600 which had been decided to be
due to the government workingmen
under the Eight Hour Law. And then
he appealed to Workingmen generally to
support Harrison and Morton and the
Republican party to get that done. In
the 46.h congress, on April 81, 1879, John
Goode, of Virginia, offered a joint resolu-
zion to enforce the Eight Hour law.
1t was defeated by 129 to 80, and voting
to lay the resolution on the table were
LEVI p. MORTON, OF NEW YORK, Mr..
Y0st's candidate for Vice President, and
Tom REED. OF MAINE, the present Re

495h congress, in 1884, on June 26sh, Mr..

ing for the adjustment of the accounts of
mechanics arising under the Eight Hour
law. The bill failed to pass-LEvI P.

The Virginidn got on Doggy ground
when it attempted to counterfeit the effect
of the Twenty-one now departed indus
tries that flourshed in Staunton under
Low Tariff, and of which the venerable
George W. Fuller gave full and complete
list in the INDICATOR las5 week. 1t in
vain tried to scramble out by going back
to e city election, and now tries to claw its
way up the bank of the congressional cleo
ton of four years ago. What has all this to
do with the fact, the undisputed fact, that
that there were industries in Stanton
in the Low Tariff times of 1850-'60 that
do not egist today under High Tariff
which the "Virglnian'' claims builds
up industries? What has it to do with
the fact that, while under the High Tariff
of to-day there are less avenues of employ
ment for the workman, that workman is
taxed hiQher than he was in 1850 go under
a low tariff, on everything he wears and
uses? That is the question the workmen
Of stanton are looking at. Why don't
you try and answer it?

a DIsC0URAGiNG ,SIA-Ldlt1 II.
Dur cotempnrary, the Tasley Vtrqiniaa,
gives the following. as It's opinion of the
! result of the election, next Tuesday, based
on what it believes to be reliable informa-
ton :
''The National Committee of the Repubsi
can party are confident that Harrison and
! Morton will carry New York, Connecticut and
Indiana. New Jersey, the only one of the
four questionable Northern States, they are
doubtful of. Recent Indications favor Re
publican success. The member of the Nation
al Committee from that State, in the last ex-
preston we have seen from him. says that
New Jersey will certainly cast its electoral
vote for Harrison and Morton. The general
drift Of public feeling is towards the Republi-
can party. This has been the case from the
time the Chicago Convention placed its ticket ,
in the field; and since then there has been no
incident occurrence to change or arrest it.
In short, all the indications point TO Republi-
can success on the 9th of November next"
Ga turning to the file of the Hirgani0n
for 1884, we find in its last issue before the
Presidential election Of that year-date Of
October 30sh-an article in similar strain.
of which the following are extracts
'sThe indications from every part of the
country point Enthusiastically to the election of
Blaine and Logan. There is not discourag
ing sign from any quarter. In the East,
North, West and on the Pacific slope, the in
teliigence received gives assurance that the
Republican ticket will sweep the country 1t
is true that the Democratsare putting up
claim for New Hampshire, Connecticut, New
Jersey, New York, Ohio, Michigan, Wiscon-
sin, Indiana Colorado, Nevada and Califor
mia. But this is characteristic. Desperate in
their condition, they not for the con Sc
quences of such foolish and insane pretences
In Virginia everything looks cheer
full, &C."
"a letter received in this place from we'll
informed gentleman of Madison, Ind, says
the Republicans will carry the State by from
5000 to 5000. This corresponds with the es-
Inmates of the Chairman of the Republican
Committee of that State. With Indiana sure
and New York coming up with from 3d. 900 to
10000 majority, Democratic hopes look rath-
er blue"
When we recollect that the ''insane pre-
fences" of the Democrats were realiz I'd in
Connecticut, New Jersey, New York and
Indiana; that the "cheerful'' outlook in
Virginia resulted in 5000 Democratic
majority, and that Gle leland was
elected in spite Of the "indica-
tlons from every part Of the couu-
try pointing Enthusiastically to the election
Of Blaine and Logan" We cannot take
much stock in our neighbours prophecies.
There is an omiDous similarity in its pre-
dictions of 1854 and its predictions Of 1888,
and to the ruin Of American INDUSTRIES
including Lowmoor, which it predicted
four years ago, and which resulted just the
other WaY.

CIT MAY Be A DEUCE.

The moral of it will be a protest
SO strong and forceful at the ballot box on the
9th of November that Free Trade Democracy
will think the great deep of popular indigna-
ton has been broken up and that in lis seeth-
ing, Angry outpour will be written down the
doom of the party that so wickedly and ruth
lessly pr, poses to trife with the interests of
the people. Tile party, oh, the party, will be
powerless to stem the current, and in its
sweep it will bury the time-servers and har,e-
quins who fatter themselves that they can
again fool and delude the people by iterated
promises and professions which have proven
false in the past and are again made to de-
ceive.
1t will be a political deluge restrained by
no party bonds or lines; Indifferent to past
association and traditions, but mindful only
of the interests and welfare of the great mass
of the people who constitute the government
Valley Virqiaaian.
We are Induced to think with our
neighbor that sit may be deluge." The
only votes that have been taken just in
advance of the Presidential election seem
to point that way. In Maine, in spite of
Blalne's personal canvass, the Democratic
gain over 1884 was 5000 to Republican
gain of 7,l95. In manufacturing Connec
ticut, IN spite Of Depew's "free-trade
cyclone Of fear =" the Democrats held the
majority by which they carried the State
in 1881, and for the first time in this gen.
GRAFTON carried the town where the Repub-
lican Governor lives, and the town where
the Republican National Committeeman
is the political leader. In New Jersey,
in spite Of the threatening pay envelopes
prepared by the National Republican
Committee and sent by Republican man
facturers to their workingman, the Demo-
Gratis carried Newark for the flrst time n
Presidential year in tweaty years, and
gained g ,:S94 OVER their vote of 1881. SO
the votes taken thus far indicate deluse
The probabilities are not less threatening
to the G o. Z. In Michigan. that used
to roll up 80, 600 Republican majority it has
gradually dwindled down to 1000, ana il is
now put down among the doubtful States.
Iowa from 70 600 Republican majority has
gone down to 19 900. Wincousin from
IS, 600 has gone down to IA. 900. It does
look as if the political skies were prepar
ing for a Democratic deluge, which shall
sweep away the time servers and barrie
guna aud High Tariff taxes all In one
common debris, with nothing tG distinv
guish it bot the legs of Blaine, and Car
negie, and Allison, and Wanamaker, and
Foraker-that strange mixture of political

POLITICAL NOTES,

Senator Blair. the author Of the Blair
bill, has settled point which has been
much discussed. In Abingdon, Va, last
week, in reply to the charge made by Hon.
james w. Marshall Of Craig, in JOINT dis
cusslon. that The Republicans had both
houses and the President, when the Blair
bill was introduced. and yet did not pass
it, Senator Blair said that was true, "but
then it was a new measure and little I'M
derstood." 1t has been favorite argu-
ment of the Virginia Republicans that the
bill was not before Congress when the Re-
publicans had both houses.
When Hon. Jno. A. Buchanan, Demo.
cratic candidate for Congress in the oh
Va. district, was speaking in Bland coun-
ty last week, he was escorted from Ceres
TO Rural Retreat by line of mounted
horsemen.

more "Sun," writes on Oct. Oath, that

The V1NDicAToa cannot be ignorant OF the
fact, as stated by expert statisticians, that
nine out of ten men who engage in manufac-
turing fail, ana that not two Of ten farmers
fail. At the end of the year, the judicious
manager, with $40, 900 farm, has more clear
profit than the tradesman ia most any other
branch of business He lives more comforta-
bly,, is less harrassed by business cares, and
enjoys life more nationally than any other
class. = ValIey YGgjnian.
We are Certainty ignorant of the fact
that "nine cut Of tea who engage in man
ufacturiug fail" but il it is true, then
good cSe to the coming "home market"
that has been held up So aluriagly before
the American farmers eyes 80 long-the
date Of It's establishment may be fixed
somewhere near the Millennium. The state
ment also suggests that if mine out Of
ten men who engage IN manufacturing
fall' under high tariff laid especially to
"pui!d Up American industries then it
is high time the Mills Bill, free raw mate
rial, or some other remedy should be given
if we want these industries established
while the world stands. Though we sup
pose our neighbor would suggest Hon.
Jacob Yost's remedy, still higher tariff
tax.
Nor did we know that "not two out of

votes the Republican ticket, he does so
against the interest Of his pocket and his
vocation. Let IL sae what has been done
for the farEuing interest since Cleyelands
Administrations begun in 1885.
The first thing done was to call a con-
vention OF delegates from the Agricultural
Colleges and Agricultural Expefiment
Stations CT tie country, co see what was
needed to bs done by the government. It
met and formulated is views. This con.
vention was followed by
A law establishing agricultural expert
ment stations in every State and Terrific
-ry, and appropriatng S15, goo to each, an
nually, for their support. Virginia's is
located at BIacksburg.
Next came i bill regulating the manu-
facture and sale Of bogns butter, better
known as Oieomargarine. This farmers
law was signed By President Cleveland.
Nex5 came the Law for stamping ouS
pleuro- pneumonia among cattle. This
was law fer che killing of diseased cat
tie and paying their owners for them from
the Na1onal Treasury. Uuder this law
10000 head of cattle have been killed and
their owners paid for them.
Next, signal service stations were es-
tablished il connection with each agricuI-
turai college ia the country.
Then came factories for the manufac-
ture of sorghum; the testing Of govern
ment seed sent out to the country, and
many other Laws for the farmers.
The appropriations under this admins
traticn for. work in aid of agriculture, have
risen each year in this ways 6, $685.
COO; 's6-7. $66S .O00; 1878, 81 ,046 600,
and 's89 81. 746 900.
To crown all, Cleveland is the inspira-
ton Of the Mills Bill, the first real at
tempt at reducing the tariff tax on the
consumers Of the farm that has been
! made in quarter Of century.
If any Republican farmer can recall any
Republican administration under which
the farming interest Of the land has re-
cslved as much encouragement and prac-
tical help, he might vote for Harrison
Ii be cannot. he should join the new
American revolution against high taxes,
and vote for Cleveland.
