AN WTSJ'DRIC Failure.

The organs of Cleveland and his wing
Of the democratic party applaud him
for the courage displayed i'll advocating
the free trade theory. Courage is not
the word fOolhardiness is more appli.
cable. The history of such experiments
in the United States has been an uninter-
rupted failure, and it is a noteworthy
fact that they have always been made
by democratic administrations. At
least three times has that party stopped
the wheels of industrial and national
progress by forcing a near approach to
free trade upon the country when it
was enjoying prosperity which COM
manded the admiration of the world.
The last return to a protective tariff
wasin 1861, at a time of widespread
financial and industrial depression.
SINCE that return only unprecedented
prosperity has bCea known. Industries
and agriculture have devaOpGd under
the protective policy until the wealth
of the country has trebled in the quar-
ter century. No class has been de-
prived of adequate recompenSe for its
labor or adequate per cent of profit
upon invested capital. The people are
prosperous, satisfied and hapry, Then
why should the president be applauded
for his courage in attempting to divert
the people from the course of prosper
itY to return to policy which has in
the soi,eGi Of experience been thrice
demonstrated fai.Ere. The free
traders theOrize and pile up s,atist.es
to prove their propositions, but their
calculations are based upon sand. a
theory cannot b6 accepted as established
until its claims can be proven by prac-
tical results, and this the advocates of
free trade have never been capable of
doing. On the contrary. every attempt
has signally failed, and it Is only won
derful that a party can be so blind to
its own interest as to make this issue
in 1888. The history of the party is one
of failure, and it is perhaps because the
free trade experiment is one of the
most remote OF its blnaders that this
deceptive doctrine is placed foremost
this year. depending upon the forget,
fulness of the generation to hide its
errors. The people, however, will re-
member the party's record for blunders
and retire 1t from public business after
March, 1880.

THE weakness of the democratic
party is demonstrated in its division
upon the foremost issue of the cam
paign-the question of tariff. The
leaders are divided. for while Cleveland
and his clan clamor for tariff for rev.
enue only, Randall and the protection
wing are welding silent but potent
influence. The smaller orators who
cannot imbibe the free trade theory
stimulate their faith by denying that
the inclination of their chief is in that
direction, even while the English jour
mails are rejoicing over the introduction
of free trade principles in America by
the president. The new theory il IN
popular with a considerable wing of
that party, and the prophecy as to a
house divided against itself is applica
BILE.

TIE yellew fever scOurge continues
10 spread in southern cities until the
conditions have changed from alarm
ing to appalling. Adding dispair to
distress the health authorities have es-
tablished such rigid quarantine as to
practically prevent those otherwise able
from leaving the stricken cities. The
situation is such as to excite the sympa-
thy OF northern cities, which have sent
many thousands of dollars to provide
for those whose means are cut off witt,
their occupation. Incidental to the
great scourge there are many instances
of admirable heroism. Physicians and
nurses who are moved to sacrifice pri-
yats business and go among the pest
houses exposing themselves TO the ter.
rible disease, and in some casGs can,
plotting the sacrifice in death. Such
scourges always develop heroes and
heroines whose brave deeds suggest the
subject of inspiring story and song,
demonstrate the humanity of the race
and win the admiration of their fellow
men.

THE third party prohibitionists are
losing numbers daily. They can have
no hope to accomplish anything for
their cause by voting the ticket this
year. They were insulted when Brooks,
the rank and unrepentant rebel, was
given a place on the ticket, and as more
is learned of his record the more dis
gushing and revolving he becomes. The
day is not yet come when loyal citizens
will vote to advance present issue by
promoting to Office one who glories in
the part he took in the war against the
government, and one whose assertion
approaches an avowal that the colored
citizens never shall have the right to
vote. A prohibitionist cannot ask to
be heard for his cause and at the same
time endorse the Rebel Brooks. The
principle of temperance is represented
in the republican candidate, and the
republican party is the only one that
has gained any practical results for the
great reform. 1t can then only be con-
cluded that he who votes the prohibi-
ton ticket in 1883 is riding hobby and
Gripping the only agency of the reform
he advocates.

Russell d. Sons, Audubon, IO,co.
GENTLEMEN Arrived in Chicago
Sunday 2. NJ, and found it very dull in
the city, so far as business is concerned.
Started Monday morning to look for
goods. Went to the cloak houses first:
visited four, and have bought of III. III.
& Co., manufacturers. have bought
much larger stock of clOaks than | in
tended to, as they are so Cheap that |
believe we can handle them all right.
The cloak manufacturers expected a
large trade this year, and bought their
material in the spring and in large guam
titles. The almost complete failure of
small grain in many of the states and
poor prospect for corn in some, has
made trade very light this fall, and they
are overloaded with stuff that they
must realize money on at once, and by
paying spot cash | have bought at least
Is per cent cheaper than ever ever have
heretofore.
called on J. V. +. & Co., NJ. +. &
Co., and G. L. 5. Il Co.. to price staples
and found them all overloaded with
goods and complaining of light trade
this fall. George Smith told me it had
been the dullest fall he had known since
he had been in Chicago. Compton said
the same. They all worked hard to sell
to me, but thought NJ. +. Il Co. gave
the best prices, so bought of them. They
had expected an extra large trade this
fall and had bought over SlOO,OOOW in
tiannels alone, and now they are selling
them at a sacrifice.
have bought much larger stock
all through than | had intended, es-
pecially in staples, and | think, when
you have seen the prices | got, you will
wonder why did not buy more. | will
try to be at home the latter part of this
week, but may not get through before
the first of next. The goods will be
shipped as soon as bought. 50 will be
there about as soon as | will. Jimmie
James and wife are well and send re-
CARDS. Yours Truly,

George c. Heberling, barnacle recent

After several weeks of indecision and
halting between two opinions, Heber-
ling has concluded that he doesn't want
the empty honor and has declined to
run. The central committee has met
and placed the name of Walter II.
McHenry. OF Des Moines, in the vacant
place on the ticket. When McIIenry

IT transpires that the report of a
thresher feeding boy bahdcutter into
the machine in Webster county, Neb.,
was without foundation. Under the
circumstances, the populace of that
bailiwick would be justified in making
a horrible example of the correspond
ent. Though all the world were at
peace and all mankind dwelt as broth
ers, the imaginative genious at Wilkes
barre, Pa, would burden the wires of
the associated press with tales of crime
and casualty apd interviews with prodi-
gies and monstrosities, but We DO not
believe that such bureau of fiction is
a public necessity in the west, hence
recommend the suppression, if needs be
by humiliation, of the reportorial liar

1T also appears that there was method
in the union labor conventions reSOlu-

only honorable arrangement possible is
the withdrawal of the other fellow. The
arrangement is altogether satisfactory

THE campaign in Indiana is one of
the hottest ever made there. 1t is esti-
mated that two thousand speeches are
made every night. Both parties are
striving to carry the election by main
force. The popularity Of Harrison,
however, promises to win the day for
the republican ticket. Delegations
from all classes continue to throng his
home city, indicating strongly the di-
rection in which the IIoosiers will cast
