Pope LeO's Latest Task.

In several instances Pope Leo has
shown himself To be possessed OF an abil-

domain OF civil government. This was

trade in Africa, and has sent Cardinal
LavigeIie TO England to secure the aid
of the Government OF that country in a
combined effort to check the evil.
The slave traffic prosecuted by the
Arabs IN Central Africa has long been
one OF the chief obstacles to the devei-
opment of that region. Travellers re-
late that, having passed through villa
ges inhabited by thousands of peaceful
and industrious people, they have been
amazed on their return a few months
afterward to find the pOpulous places
sacked. the huts in ruins and streets
overgrOwn with grass. The Arabs had
swOoned down upon the peaceful spot
and had killed, captured or dispersed
the Inhabitants.
England has always been opposed to
this traffic, and with the view of sup

The Iron Trade.

In spite of tariff outcry the iron trade
IN Pennsylvania shows sn improved
tone. The shadow on the future is not
the probable outcome OF revenue legis-
latiou, bu: the lowering rates for South
ern iron. The capacity for cheap pro-
duction in the South is every year more
aggFessively manifestlEg itself, and it is
certain, in the long run, that Pennsyl-
vania iron mills will have to regulate
their business TO meet Southern prices.
The mills that cannot make cheap iron
will have to stop.
The hardship of situation which de-
stroys the value of Investments made
under the encouragement of tariff boun-
ties cannot be denied. But the Federal

people ut large. Iron enters SO largely
into all the uses or civilized life that its
cheapness gives spur 10 nearly every
form OF useful enterprise. If Pennsyl-
vania should be driven out of her place

forms she could apply herself to the
more profitable task ofturning the crude

The COlOred Men in Line.

From all parts of the country comes
the cheering news that colored men are
falling into the Cleveland ani Thurman
procession aud are strongly and sincerely
advocating tariff reform.
In every State in the Union intelli-
gent coloreh voters have renounced the
ticket and policy of the monopolIsts and
even I'm Pennsylvania the feeling of inde-
pendence is growing among that portion
of our citizens Over in Cumberland
county there is large colored vote
nearly all of which went to the Repub-
lican ticket four years ago, but it is safe
to estimate that half of II this year will
be given to the candidates of the party
that believes the present tariff system is
burdensome to the working classes and a
source of benefit only TO the monopo-
lists.
During previous campaigns the Re-
publican leaders said if the Democratic
parry got in power the negroes would
again become slaves, but this standard

Home revolt against Harrison.

Evansville is the first commercial and
manufacturing city of the great State of
Indiana, the State which is the home OF
the Honorable Benjamin Harrison. Re-
publican nominee for .he Presidency of
the United States. Yet this city OF
such vast Importance, the Republicans,
with very, very few exceptions, are ut
terly disgusted at the action of the Chi
cago Convention. Every man in this
community knows that the Bulletin is
as true 20 Republican principles as it is
possible for any paper in the world to
be. Those principles We love and honor,
and hope to see prevail, notwithstand-
ing the fact that the Republican candi-
date for the Presidency has proved him
self, by his record on the Chinese queS-
tiOn, to be An enemy To American labor
auc opposed TO liberal views by his
fauatIcism on the temperance question.
On all hands and among all classes of
Republicans, we hear of their determin.
alton not to support Harrison. and it is
as well for Republicans all over the

NonsensicaI Campaigning.

The fact that the Republican candidate
Cor President is the grandson or Gene
raj William Henry Harrison is certain
ly 10 discredit to the Republican stan
dard bearer. The people irrespective of
party honor the memery of the hero OF
Tippecanoe but even though his grand
son is now a Presidential candidate. the
Democracy has no Ingalls, to try TO prove
that General Harrison was a military
blunderer and in reality traitor 10 his
country.
Against the character of the Repub-
lican standard bearer DOT one word can
be said. He is a good citlZen, man
whose domestic relations are all tEey
should be, and a successful lawyer. He
was also brave soldier, and certainly
has and is entitled 10 the respect OF the
conntry-
The great issue between the Republi-
can and Democratic parties is whether
the people or the special favored few
shall be protected. The Democratic
platform proposes an average reduction
of per cent on a tariff of AZ per cent.
and the abolition of a number of op-
pressive, uonseEs.cal ana inconsistent
duties. The Republicans propose to
stand by a tariff that was made oppres-
sive in order to pay off the expenses in
CURED by the Rebellion. -Four years
ago. after deciding that the tariff ought
to be removed and taxation reduced. the
Republican party this year has made a
complete somersault and resolved that
the crudities, inconsistencies and OPP
pressive features of the present tariff
shall remain as they are.
As the question OF tariff reduction is
/ the great issue between the two parties,
il is difficult to see what sense there is
of raising in 1883 a hurrah about the log
cabin of 1910.
And why drag the coon into tariff
reform campaign? The coon by in
stinct is free trader. He steals his
meals wherever he can get them, and the
farmer who catches him preylng upon
his property doesn't think he is entitled
to any protection. Neither is the coon
in favor of free whisky or untaxed to-
bacco. AS a symbol of Republicanism
the coon is a fraud.
AS protection enables the monopOlists
| and manufacturers to live In magnif-
cent houses and to decorate them with
costly curtains. carpets and works OF AIT
| from Europe. the log cabin also seems
| out of place in Republican campaign.
I The dwellers il log cabins are mostly
/ farmers, the fellows who get no protec-
| tion whatever, and who are heavily
/ taxed in the bargain to help monopolists
to revel in rare productions OF foreign
| countries.
The log-cabin and coon campaign is a
/ first class traud.-Pbild. Herald.

HAVE you noticed the darkness in the
Republican horizon. The total eclipse
of the moon on the 22ad OF July last, is
not only equalled. but eXcelled by the
total eclipse of Benjamin Harrison. the
Republican Presidential candidate by
the arrival Of Jingo Blaine. The Johns
town Tribune in lamenting over the
fact that Harrison is placed IN the back
ground, very pathetically remarks
Isisall very we'll for the Republicans
TO give Mr.. Blaine respectful! attention,
on account OF his eminent position and
his eminent party services IN the past,
but there are some Republicans who
think he can be made too much OF IN the
present campaign. IL IL Is true that be-
fore leaving London Mr.. Blaine cabled
n REQUEST that the Senate Tariff bill be
held back until he could have a chance
TO examine il, and that the Senate
agreed TO this IN order that he might
strike the KEYNOTE of the campaign upon
his arrival - then truly he has great
presumption for private citizen, and
the Republican Senator's are 1t sea.
BIaine's attitude on the Tariff is sound
and his views are broad, no doubt, but
we had understood that he was not the
Presidential candidate this year.
While the Pittsburg Times, one of
the Blaine organs pipes to the following
tune
IL ever a man had right to speak
and be heard Mr.. Blaine has. He put
! aside the Presidential nomination. He
rejected the highest place for the hum
| blest. He might have been chief II
command. but he took the lowest sta
tion in the ranks. We say Mr.. Rlaine
/ is entitled 20 be heard.
There is trouble in the Republican
camp as to whether Blaine is greater

not, and the arrival of the jlngo states

has precipiiated the trouble. Tie Ma
