A New Republican Platform.
New York T lines. |

So far as related to the tariff proper,
there was one plain and unqualified
statement made by the Republican
National Convention, and practically
only one which was that the tariff du-
ties should be increased to a point that
would reduce the revenue by discourage
ing importations. Whether the COM
mittee has carried out the instructions
of the grand assembly of the party in
this regard or not is not certainly
known. Probably it has not, except,
perhaps, in the single item of the du-
ties on raw wool, which is a matter inn
portant as to the principle involved, but
affecting at the most only some three
or four millions of the revenue. If the
committee has disregarded the explicit
directions of the National Convention,
an explanation of why they have done
SO will be in order. The public will
certainly wish to know whether the
convention was right or the committee,
and If the latter, why the convention
took the course it did, and how the po-
sition of the party is affected by the
change. .. .. .s .a

THE only thing on earth that recon-

contemporary is its cheapness, but it is a
murderous article nevertheless. Scores
Of good horses are all marked up with
it, and their owners are fortunate that
the horses even escape with their lives.
1t is pity that some other fence could
not be put on the market that is equal
ly cheap. The fence question is an inn
portant one to the farmers, for next to
buildings, fences cost more money than
anything else on the farm. The COM

safe as against all sorts of stock, and a
fortune awaits the man who invents it.

"Gath" Gives It Up.

"Gath,h the we'll known correspon-
dent of the Cincinnati Enquirer, in an
article to that paper gives it up that
Cleveland will carry New York. He
starts out with the following statement:
"My present instinct is that both
Cleveland and Hillare going to triumph
in the State of New York" He then
goes on to givea number of substantial
and convincing reasons why the Demo-
Gratis will carry New York and why the
Republicans cannot possibly hope to
carry that State. He then winds up by
saying, "Out of this condition of things
he who can cipher Republican victory
is happy in temperament" "Gath" is
strong Republican and one of the best
posted politicians in this country.
When he is forced to admit that he
thinks that the Democratic party is 60
ing to carry New York, he must be led
to that conclusion by the best and the
strongest of reasons. r.. .r. rr

HON. GEO. w. HoUK, Democratic
candidate for Congressman in the Day
ton district. makes good point in re-
gard to the millionaires of England.
When that country was highly protect
ed, there were4 900 millionaires there,
while to-day, there are less than 1000,
and workingmen receive nearly twice
the wages they did then. The lesson
ofthis confirms the teachings of correct
political economies, viz: A low tariff
diversifies industry and wealth while a
high tariff concentrates them. The
general and great prosperity of this
country under the low tariff era just
proceeding year 1850 is another practi-
cal demonstration of this great truth.

Thursday afternoon thirty-five tour
lists visited the summit of Pixies Peak.
Between two and three o'clock a severe
electric storm, accompanied by heavy
fall of rain, occurred. The visitors took
refuge in the Signal Station. Laura
Cook, aged fourteen years, daughter of
George o. Cook, of Chicago, was stand
ing in the doorway while the storm was
at its height. Suddenly, and stimuli
taneously with deafening crash,
binding light filled the room, and the
spectators we're Mortified to see the blue
blaze of lightning bolt strike the un-
fortunate girl full in the face and circle
down around her body. She was knock
ed lifeless to the floor, and fearful
sight met the eyes of her friends. Her
head was swollen to an enormous size,
and her body and limbs were cut in
strips and horribly mutilated. The in
cident is a peculiar phenomena, and
old mOuntaineers claim 1t to be the
first serious electrical disturbance ever
occurring above the clouds in the his
tory of the State. ..n

Found at Last.

1t is three years since a package of
money sent in an express envelope
from Cincinnati to the Van Vert
National bank was lost in transit. The
envelope was received, marked "$10,-
OOO," but when opened, contained
nothing but pieces of circus poster,
cut to the size of bank bills. The
posters currency didn't go with the
bank, and it brought suit in the U. s.
Court and recovered the money. The
express company's detectives failed to
clear up the mystery. The package
had gone via Dayton, thence to Green
vile, where it remained over night
A circus poster was noticed in the
back room at the office to match the
pieces found in the envelope. Two
years ago the driver of the express
wagon at Greenville moved to Meade
county, Kansas, and invested $1,000 in
real estate. On Monday he was arrest
ed, confessed, and returned $4,000 of
the money. His crime had weighed SO
heavily on him that he had dwindled
from stout, robust man to a mere
shadow of his former self.-Linad

This Tells the Story.

Eighty-eight out of every hundred
cigar makers in California are China
men. .f.. .E s
Harrison cast fourteen votes in the
Senate against the protection of Ameri-
can workingmen from the competition
of Chinese cheap labor.
Cleveland made treaty to prevent
the Chinese from coming to this coun-
try.
Harrison said!
There would be precisely as much
justice and propriety in excluding
Germans and Irish as in excluding
Chinese.
Cleveland said:
The laws should be rigidly enforced
which prohibit the immigration of a
servile class to compete with American
labor, with no intention of acquiring
a citizenship, and bringing with them
and retaining habits and customs re-
pugnant to our civilization.
Don't be- fooled by false cries of free
trade but vote for Cleveland and your
own interest.

A Sectional Cry.

Warner Miller deliberately perverted
the truth when he said in his Cooper
Union speech that the Mills bill ".pro-
tects the South and strikes at the in
dustries of the North" Flagrantly
false in his statement that it "raises the
duty on rice"
TheMills bill reduces the duty on re-
fined sugar 20 per cent. and on raw
sugar 35 per cent, cutting off $l1 ,000,-
600 of revenue from this source (the
most from any schedule save wooD and
saving to the people $23, ,000, 600 year.
It lowers the duty on rice IL per cent.

Wool growing is relatively as much
of a Southern as Northern industry.
Texas alone, Mr.. Mills State, had last
year 4,761 1881 sheep, more than any
State except California, and more than
New York, Pennsylvania and all the

completely refuted by the Secretary,
Mr.. Endicott, who has shown that it
was the custom of his predecessors to
make such purchases In England and
have them entered free of duty at the
custom houses, but that he Secretary

this Republican prsstice, and had all
such supplies purchased OF American
manufacturer. Nevertheless. the Re-

repeat the original charge, which is
false as to Secretary Endicott, but true
