IN A NUTSHELL.
The Issue Briefly Stated.

Thu New York World admits that the Re-
publicans have increased the free list from
$50, 900 900 in 1886 to S234, 900, 900 {says
Rufus Fleming in the Cincinnati Times Star .
But it says that ''the enlargement is almost
wholly due to the free-listing of articles not
produced in this country" like tea, coffee,
spices, etc. Well, these are very important
articles for both the poor and the rich, are
they not? They enter into universal con-
sumption, A duty on tea or coffee could be
nothing but a revenue tariff, and the nearest
approach to direct tax possible in customs
duties, without any compensating benefit, for
there is no home competition with the for
eign producer We have here very clear
illustration of the Democratic policy. 1t is
the English policy-practical free trade.
Revenue for the Government should be
raised, say these economists, by duties upon
such products of other countries as are not
produced in this country. This eliminates
altogether the protective principle. 1t denies
protection to our industries, abandons the
working millions to struggle on even terms
with foreign labor. Republicans, on the
other hand, hold the doctrine that everything
not raised or made in the United States
should be free of duty and that in providing
revenue for the Government duties should
be so laid as to encourage home industry, di-
versify employment and promote the inter-
ests of labor The contest this year is be-
tween these two poll cies

Nature and Science Against the Bour-
bons.

II IL an interesting fact that "A recent
feat the Democratic party in Indiana.
Formerly that State had few manufacto-
ries, and probabilities seemed against their
large increase and prosperity. This en-
couraged the Democratic leaders to in
weigh against Protection and to try to
arouse prejudice against Eastern manufac-
lures and to harp on the advantages of
Free Trade to an agricultural people. But
the cheap use of coal and the recent dis
covery of gas in Indiana amply supply
the want of water power, and the
State Is entering on an era of
manufacturing. The natural gas discov-
cry Is having an immediate effect, and
tends to make the doctrines of the Golden
Club unpopular. All through the natural
gas belt of the State mills and factories
are In operation OF are building.
Five years from row. if the tariff is left
undisturbed, Indiana will resemble Ohio
or New England in its many manufacture
ing villages. The agricultural character
of the State is changing to one of diversi-
fed occupations, thanks to natural gas
.-..sr psVs.~. oattu With the change
In occupation is also going ON a change in
political beliefs.-The inhabitants want to
see their infant industries develop and
prosper, The change in political belief in
consequence has brought to the Republ-
can party several thousand votes, while
the number of protectionists who have
settled in the natural gas regions since its
discovery amount to several thousand
more-enough in themselves to make the
State Republican this fall.
Thus it is plain that the giant forces of
nature and the skill aud arts of men are
against the Bourbon Democracy In this
country. The bounding streams and riv-
ers OF New England, the coal and iron of
Pennsylvania, easily available for New
York, the natural gas and mines of the
West, and the manufacturing resources
Of the South, coupled with American
skill and labor, are operative against the
Free Trade programme of Cleveland and
his partisans in way to render their de-
feat in November overwhelming. America,
with its boundless resources must be held
for her own development and prosperity.
And the near approaching triumph of
Protection by the election of Harrison
and Morton will tend to abolish British
dogmas from the domain of American
politics.

Why Ali English Newspapers Favor

Him.--Labouchere on Protection.
To the Editor Of the Philadelphia Press:
SIR In looking over my Press the other
morning | noticed quite number of extracts
from English papers favoriug the election of
Cleveland. ! noticed particularly that every
shade Of English political opinion was rep
resented in those extracts. From the rank
est Tory TO the most advanced Republican
they are simply unit in favor of Free
Trade for America. Why is this so? How
is it that there is no dissenting opinion among
these political enemies on all other subjects ?
Simply because to them will go all the bene-
fits of American Free Trade. They know
this only too well, and there is no wonder
they will give lots of money and get enthu-
siastic over Cleveland's election. If | were
in England myself | should be as strong a
Cleveland man as the best of them. But
having chosen America as my future home
it would be most suicidal for me to support
Cleveland.
| was very much interested in the statistics
you published in reference to wages in
Bradford and in this country. | worked in
the worsted mills of Bradford over twenty
years and in the mills of this country over
nine years, and | can offer my testimony to
the accuracy of your figures in every par
ticular
Herewith l give you an extract from a
speech delivered by one of Englands most
eminent Free Traders; an honest opinion
from an honest man mau. l refer to the
well-known editor of the London Truth,
Henry Labouchere. He says:
Il am no fanatca Free Trader, but am
one geographically. If l had been All
American | should have been a protectionist
Being an Englishman | am Free Trader.
If | were Canadian | should advocate a
customs union with the United States, al
though as an Englishman | should be very
sorry if this union were effected. The mis-
take of political economy is to suppose that
it is based on principles of universal appli-
cation. My reason, as an Englishman, for
being Free Trader is not any theoretical
admiration of Free Trade but be cause we
should lose more than we should gain by
protection" Yours sincerely, X. II.

THE TEXAN BOURBON.

The insolence and plantation manners
OF Roger ID. Mills are getting him into
embarrassing circumstances. His behav-
ior not long since in New Haven shows of
bered that he told polite questioncr to
Ego home and soak his head" The
gentleman who was the object of this
discourtesy, DIR. j. A. Hutchinson, tells
the story as follows:
The facts in relation to my question and
the reply received are these: When Mr.
Mills had concluded his remarks and was
passing from the stage, called to him, and
upon gaining his attention, said II desire
to ask you question, sir" Mr.. Mills gave
his consent and stepped to the front of the
platform, at the same time placing his hand
behind his ear as if TO catch more distinctly
the sound of my voice, and remained listen.
ing. My question was: "If free raw ma.
terial is going to be such a blessing to the
country and cotton goods, as you have stated
are manufactured cheaper in Rhode Island
than they can be in England, how is it thai
we cannot flood the markets of the world
with these manufactured goods2" The gen.
tlenlan removed his hand from his ear and
placed both hands around his mouth and re-
turned his answer, not as we expected it from
the polished statesman, but in the manner
and with the accent of boor, bawled out
through that primitive speaking trumpet
You go home and soak your head" Only
this and nothing more. Mr.. Mills pro.
nouuced this "a slanderous campaign lie
II anything further is required by the gentle
man in order to convince him that this is his
exact language, | would respectfully inform
him that reputable citizens in and about New
Haven are ready to certify that these were
his words exactly. And furthermore, my
question, together with Mr.. Mills answer
has occupied conspicuous position in the
New Haven Daily Palladium, which even
Mr.. Mills will acknowledge is respectable
publication, for the space of eleven days
and during that time they have remained un
challenged and uncontradicted. Concerning
Mr.. Mills denial as it appeared in the Tri-
bune, have only this to say The state
ment is hagrant violation of the truth.
