WHO Is HARRISON, ANYHOw?-The
leaders of the republican party are being
freely talked about, but somehow we never
hear word of Harrison. As the old song
rms. sOh, no! we never mention him; his
name is never heard" Perhaps it is be-
cause he is not regarded as one of the lead
ers, but sort of makeshift-a last resort,a
kind OF couldn't-helpit. you know.
Mr.. Blaine, on the contrary, is like mote
in the republican eye, not only there all the
time, but making itself felt by the irrita-
ton he causes. His magnetic eloquence is
on draught, so to speak, and runs with
gurgling, gushing, bubbling flow whenever
YOU pull out the spigot. Mr.. Carnegie not
only coached him through Scotland but also
appears to have coached him in mellifuous
phrases about that charitable, benevolent
and gentlemanly devil known as trust.
His name is on everybody's lips, and there
are strong reasons why honest Americans
could not forget him if they would.
But Harrison seems to be the easiest man
in the country to forget. Indeed it requires
a great effort on the part of the republicans
themselves to keep him in mind. If you
tnrn to the ordinary member of the party,
one of the rank and file, and suddenly ask,
Who is Harrison, anyhow? he looks at you
with vacant sort of stare, then runs bis
fingers through his hair in bewilderment,
and replies, "Harrison, did you say3 Why,
isn't he the man whom we nominated for
the Presidency or something, at the Chicago
Convention? Pm not sure, but if my
memory serves me that's the man."
The republicans are lacking in courtesy
to their chief, but perhaps they have their
reasons. We never attribute bad motive
to any one.-N. Y. Herald.

PLAIN QUEsTIoNs.-Does anybody really
believe that men are made better off by tax
ing them unnecessarily?
Does anybody really believe that the sur
plus should be sQuandered in reckless and
unnecessary ways in order that the reduc-
ton of our excessive taxation may be avoid
ed.
Does anybody really believe that it would
be better for the people to abolish the taxes
on whiskey and tobacco than to abolish the
taxes on salt, lumber, wool, and other COM
mon necessaries and raw materials?
Does anybody really think that it is bet
ter to abolish taxes whose result goes into
the treasury than to abandon taxes the
money from which goes into the pockets of
favored capitalists?
Does anybody really believe that legisla-
ton in the interest of a class at the expense
of all the people is desirable?
Does anybody really believe that the con-
dition of workingmen is made better by high
taxes upon all the articles they consume?
Does anybody really believes that the
success of the Republican party in a cam
paign on the Chicago platform would be a
victory for anybody except conspiracy of
monopolists and the INSCRIPTIONS polit-
clans who for the sake of victory, have sold
out tao machinery of a once great party to
the managers of that conspiracy?

POere and Tucker at Fluvauna Court house
PALMYRA, Aug. 28th, 1888.

PALMYRA, Aug. 2oth, 1888.
To the Editor of Staunton Spectator:
SIR:-Notice having been given that
Hons. Ro. B. Poore, our District Elector,
and Harry st. George Tucker, our candi-
date for Congress, would address the peo-
pie of Fluvanna here on yesterday, large
crowd was on hand early, anxious to hear
them.
Major Poore led off in an excellent Cleve-
land and Thurman tariff reform speech Of
an hour and half. The Major having resid
ed with bis uncle the lamented and beloved
Major Ro. H. Poore, and gone to school
here first before the war, met with hearty
reception; and his speech being replete with
choice information upon the issues of the
canvass, and interspersed with happy al
lusions and telling points and hits, elected
from time to time much applause.
And then your young "Harry" in re-
Spouse to rapturous calls stood up to ad-
dress the people, and by the time he was
well on in his beautiful and touching exor-
dunn, men whose eyes are unused to tears
all over the house were drawing forth their
handkerchiefs, or making unmistakable
gestures with thumbs and fpgers, and it
was manifest that he had captured his large
audience.
From that time onward for about two
hours he held their enraptured attention,
evoking almost continuously rapturous ap-
plause attested by all the customary mani
festations Of it, and when he got through
there was an ovation of Misunderstanding from
the old men and the young, all rushing for
ward to the stand and rendering their
hearty ongratulations-the like of which
was never witnessed here before. Never
before did man make finer impression
here. One of our best citizens said it would
only be necessary for Mr.. Tucker to make
that same speech at three or four other
places in the county to ensure majority of
four hundred.
l will not try to give you the speech. l
can only state the effects of it. 1t was
glorious day for the Democracy of sod
Flu" and she sends greetings to Old Au-
gusta and promises to roll up big majority
for her favorite son. GLEN.

He WILL NEVER GET 1T BAcK-A farm
Ier with turn for figures has been calculat-
ing the tariff tax On the quantity of bind:
ing twine and Paris green used by him this
summer, and finds it amounts to just $14.
He asks the New York Evening Post where
it is to be made up to him, but the Post
seems to be unable to say, as it makes no
reply to the question. Probably the reason
the Post makes no answer is that the $14
is mt going to be made up to the farmer in
any way. 1t is not the object of the tariff
to encourage farmers. 1t is meant to en-
courage manufacturers. The farmers pros
perity is so great that he can sfford to give
the manufacturing capitalists bonus on all
they produce. At any rate he does it, and
seems to stand it pretty well, and like it..
He must like it, for in some parts of the
country he votes for high-tariff candidates
for Congress and for Legislatures that elect
pIotectionist Senators. The manufacturers
can stand the tariff bonus as long as the
farmer can. They are curious to know how
long it will take him to get enough.-BeN.
