An orphan asylum for negroes is
being erected ut Lyme. burg, yir-
gini;l The money for this under
linking was furnished by the white
people of Virginia, and is strong
proof of the kindness and consid
Grafton of the white people OF the
Sonth for the negroes. This is an
object lesson which should serve to
teach the negroes that their best
and trnest friends are the white
people among whom they were born
and raised. The denlagognes who
go about preaching negro equality y,
stirring up strife and milking the
negro dissatisfied with his eondi-
ton, is the worst enemy the race
has. Such fellows have no regard
for the real welfiire of the negro.
Their only object is to work upon
his passions SO as to. secure his vote
and boost themselves into power

form.


Governor Ames, of Massachusetts
who signed the petition of the New
England manufacturers for the aboli-
ton of the duties on iron orc and
coal, and q reduction to the ante war
rate of the duties on pig iron and
manufacturers of iron and steel, is
out in an interview justifying his ac-
ton. In brief he says there is nc
politics in the question, but it is a
matter of life and death to New
England manufactures; and that
every Republican iron and steel
manufacturer in New England
whom he knows has signed the
petition. "They are moving" he
says "for free raw material because
if they do no secure this relief they
feel that their industries will be
doomed for the sake of the prosperi-
ty of Pennsylvania, or at best can
but prolong u miserable existence. -
Then Governor Ames cnumerates a
long list of iron and steel manufac-
tories that have become extinct in
New England because of the high
duties on the raw material, such as
iron and coal The petition signed
by the governor and other Repub-
lican manufacturers after enumer-
ating these facts in detail, makes
the extraordinary admission that

stances they (the manufacturers

tom of protection was maintained ia

manufacturers declare, through the
operations of the holy tariff.-Pitts-

Here is pretty kettle of fish
New England Governors and man
ufacturers crying for lower tariff,
free raw material, and going farther
towards "British free trade" than

free raw material include wool as
well as iron ore and coal? Fifty
wooden mills have lately failed in
the east "because even with degra
ded labor" they could not compete
with the free wool of England.

Iowa IN lime.

Iowa In Lime.
The Democrats Of Iowa, who have
for the last decade or two been do
ing considerable political trimming
and straddling in the hope of catch
ing straying factions from the
enemy's ranks and winning tempo
rary and local victories, have caught
the fighting spirit of the times, and
will do aggressive battle this fall on
strictly Democratic lines. They
have got together with the Dem
ocracy of the other States who have
in convention this year given ex-
preston to sound Democratic princi-
pies. They declare clearly and
without ambiguity their position on
the tariff:
Tic Democracy of Iowa in con
vention assembled, indorse the de-
claration of principles made by the
National Democracy at St. Louis in
1888.
eve renew our opposition to the
unconstitutional and unjust policy
of high tariff taxation; which robs
the many to enrich the few, makes
the producer the slave of the manu-
facturer; lays the heaviest burdens
on the farmer, the mechanic and the
day laborer, whom it daily robs:
gives no return, through any chan
mel, and fosters trusts, which are the
legitimate result of our present tar
iff system. And we denounce the
faIlacy of the Republican State plat
form of Iowa that high tariff is or
can be any protection to the farmer .
They have also the proper notion
in regard to pensions, as shown by
the following declaration upon that
subject:
"While we demand that all honor
ably discharged Union soldiers who
were injured in the line of duty or
who are unable by reason of age or
other infirmities to support their
families, shall receive liberal pen
sions and the special care of the
Government, we denounce as an in
suit to every brave soldier and as
making the pension roll roll of
dishonor, the decision of the present
National Administration that '.the
dishonorable discharge of a soldier
from the service of the United States
is no bar to pension"
The most significant incident of
the convention is thus described:
"Mr. Richman, the young orator
from Muscatine was warmly re-
ceived. He caught the car of the
convention with his words ending:
81 desire to propose to the Demo
cracy of the State of Iowa this SEN
timent: The National Democratic
party in 1892, on platform of tar
iff reduction, and under the leader
ship of Grover Cleveland" Scarcely
had the last two words fallen from
his lips when the delegates sprang
to their feet and cheer after cheer
rang through the air. 1t was
several minutes before order was re-
stored and the speaker could pro-
coed. "
There is little question that Gro
yer Cleveland still has the call as the
man above all others to lead his par
ty and the people to liberation. The
Iowa Democracy may not be able to
carry their State this year, but we
confidently look for a large decrease
in the Republican vote in that
stronghold of Radicalism.

The friends of Civil service Re-
form in the Republican party are
greatly disappointed at the course
of the administration. The Phila-
delphia Telegraph, a staunch Re-
publican paper that supported Mr..
Harrison in the last campaign, re-
ferring to the record of the admin
istration, says:
"The administration in almost
every one Of it's acts since it
was inaugurated on the fourth OF
March last has secuted and f1Outed
Civil Service Reform, and trampled
under foot it's own promises to re-
speet it. 1t has turned it out OF
doors and barred the doors against
it. That is the truth about the
matter in brief, and the administers
ton and its organ could do no bet
ter, wiser thing than to frankly
confess that, having found Civil
Service Reform to interfere with its
plans, it whistled it down the wind
as remoreselessly as it would dis
miss an Objectionable tramp
