WHO Is THE DEMAGOGUE!

Our good brother, the Journal.
says we are demogoguo because
we will not accept his home spun
theory Of a high protective tariff.
1t IS a fact the ARGUS will not at
tempt to dispute that the journal
has pulled the wool over the Repub-
lean eyes in this county to perfec-
ton, but when it asks tho ARGUS
TO accept it's jugglery Of the tariff
question it forgets its cunnineness.
1t says our accusation that it Is
willing for the manufacturers and
mlllonaires TO buy where they can
buy the cheapest. but opposed to
the laboringnan buyipgwhere he can
buy the cheapest, places us i'm the
category Of demagogucs. Perhaps
IT does, but If anyone can tell the
JoHrHaPs position on the tariff issue
IT is more than we can do, and we
have read every line carefully. It
is for protection in one article. and
against protection in another article.

party. That is about The size Of the

WE NEED MONEY.

We have gone to considerable ex-

an expense which had to be met
with the cold cash, and as a result
we are badly in need Of money. We
trust those who are indebted to the
ARGUS will come forward and pay
up. One dollar and fifty cents may
look small in the eyes Of some, land
it is small amount which all can
pay and not miss) but it amounts
to considerable to us when it runs
up into the hundreds. 1t is utterly

PROTECTION.

The following is from the Iron
dale Republican correspondent of
the Journal, who preached high
protective tariff, and argued that
the success of Harrison and Protec-
ton meant high wages and steady
work at the Irondale furnace. Let
him acknowledge his own falsehood.
The furnace stopped the 9Th ult. As to how
long II will stand id 80 Is difficult to tell You can
hear from one source II will start soon. from
another II will be several months, and from an
other II will never start but the fact that some
men are still driving the heading" in the mines
for the purpose of testing both quality and guam
tity OF the ore and that they are meeting with
some encouragement looks as II the work would
start afier time. Many families have left,
looking for work elsewhere.

PREFER sERPp0M.

The Martinsburg Independent, in
speaking of unhappy Office seek
ers," says We wish every person
plenty of good, but we will say this
much, that living made from labor
and toll in any legitimate business,
is far better than being subjected to
the caprice and whims of political
wire workers.
Every word Of which is gospel
truth but it is strange how many
prefer to be subjected to the caprice
and whims of political wire workers,
thereby destroying their indepcnd-
encc and manhood.
West Virginia argus. [volume] (Kingwood, W. Va.) 1877-1946, 1889-04-18

Wanamaker for buying where he
can buy the cheapest, and it urges
the poor laboringman to vote for a
high protective tariff in order to in
crease the cost of the necessaries Of
life which every poor person must
buy. Now man who will preach
one thing and practice another,
like John Wanamaker, is kypo-
critic and deserving Of the severest
condemnation. He may be the
Journals ideal of protcctionist
now, but during the campaign it
endeayored to make the laboringmen
believe that this blessed "protec-
ton" was for the sole benefit Of the
American workingmen. 1t don't
preach that kind of doctrine just
now, for the furnaces and factories
are closing down and it can't hood
wink them any longer
The Journal says:
We favor such tariff "a will make homemade
cloaks the cheapest. Docs the ARGUS tooi Please
answer squarcly.
We always answer squarely, dear
brother. If you mean to add tar
if sufficient to cover the difference
in labor in the old country and this
country we are with you; but not
one tribute for pensions for manu-
facturers. Whenever you can con-
vince us with proof that high pro-
tective tariff is for the benefit of
American labor that it is the cause
of giving our laboring element plen-
ty of work at good wages, we will
join you in the cry of protection"
Until then we are opposed to this
excessive tao upon the necessaries
of life. We don't believe that pro-
lection to American manufacturers
is beneficial to the great army of
wage workers while labor Is admitted
duty free. We have all the evidence
we could ask for, that the Republic
can party is merely the tool of the
millionaire and manufacturer. No
less a parsonage that Walker Blaine
Assistant Secretary of State, is au-
thority for the statement that the
policy of the Harrison administra-
ton is to protect the American
manufacturer. Being one of the
high cockolorums of the Harrison
family wesuppose he knows whereof
he speaks. There is nothing said
about protecting the American
workingmen.
Please quit feeding the Journal
readers on such sophistry.

CONGRESSMAN WILSON.

The following deserved compli-
ment is paid Hon. VIM. l.. Wilson
by the editor of the Martinsburg
Independent, who is Republican
and one of the ablest men in his
party:
Hon. w. L. Wilson is a gentle
man, scholar and an orator of
growing repute. We felt proud of
him last Wednesday. While having
the places of note in the capitol
building pointed out, we finally ar
rived in the hall Of the house of
Representatives. Here our guide,
without knowing from what State
we hailed, stopped before desk and
said: "This is the seat of the ablest
and finest speaker in the house
Hon. W. l.. Wilson, from West
Virginia. Though politically OPP
posed to him, we say he is an honor
to the State and man of might
and valor' in the Democratic ranks.

LITTLE RHODY.

The Democrats have won a glori-
Gus victory in Rhode Island. Re
publican rule long preserved the
property-qualification for voters and
the majority Of the citizens were
slaves of capital. Thanks to the
growth of Democracy the people
were emancipated and this triumph
is the just pablo demonstration Of
gratitude to the Democratic party,
which is the real champion Of the
people.

Mr.. S. p. McCoRMIcK had Miss

Editor Dawson, Senator Morley and
DIR. Lanham, so they hied to Wash

to change it and appoint John A.
Perrill. Thus do we see the Repub-
licans living in peace and prosperity
over the election of Harrison.
Even our good Brother White, Of
the Era, they "sot" down on him
with sickening thud ! Well, we
told him so, but he wouldn't listen
to us.

SOUTHERN OuTRAaEs

Republican rule is getting to be
synonymous with minority rule.
That party has the President, though
the Democrats got nearly 100, 900
more of the popular vote. 1t has
the governor in Connecticut, though
the Democratic candidate polled
], 400 more votes. 1t has now Sc
cured all the State officers, save one
in Rhode Island, though the Dem
ocrats polled 1900 more votes than
the Republicans. And it holds the
Legislature in New York, State
which has gone Democratic seven
times in succession.
If such Things should occur i'm the
Southern States il would be herald
ed broadcast a" Southern outraees'
and "shot gun policy" and some
fool Republican Congressman would
ask Congress. to investigate the
matter.

TARIFF REFORM.

The Rhode Island election is a
substantial victory for Tariff Re-
form. The Republicans made the
contest on protection platform,
while the Democrats made the race
on the tariff reform Issue and carri-
ed the State by 1888 plurality, thus
reversing the Harrison plurality Of
4,43S Of last November. So YOU
soc the workingmen in manufactu-
ring Rhode Island arc fndinl out
TO their sorrow that protection docs
not protect them. They find out
they can't live on promises. They
have lived on that chat long enough.
Oh, we are coming, Father Har-
rison, over five hundred thousand
majority Of the popular vote the
next time

half dozen vessels will be needed
for the various members of the adj
ministration, for their families and
friends. And The people will foot
the bills.
Senator John Sherman has just
proved himself TO be a"bigger" man
with the administration than Rep
resentatives Mckinley and Benja-
min Butterworth combined. Ohio
has two candidates for the position
of sixth auditor of the Treasury.
One was backedby Senator Sherman
and the other by Messrs. Mckinley
and Butterworth. The Sherman
man, Mr.. Coulter, has just been
appointed.
Land Commissioner Stockslager
fears there will be trouble in Okla
homa. He says that only about
10000 homesteads can be entered
under the Presidents proclamation
and he has every reason to believe
that at least 100000 persons will
enter the country within thirty days
from its opening next Monday.
The new administration Is making
record for itself on the pension
question. 1t is going faster than
the most radical had any idea that
it would short time ago, and no
man can at this time foresce the
end. Assistant Secretary Bussey,
of the interior department before
whom appeals from the decisions of
the Commissioner of Pensions are
heard, seems to Guido the "Corpo-
raP' in his construction Of the law
as applied to pensions. 1t is esti-
mated that the decisions of the late
Commissioner, Gen. Black, which
Busscy has already reversed, will
cost the Government more than
81 600, 900. He should change his
name to Buster. The Corporal
not to be outd0ne by his superior
officer, made an order last week that
will cost more than $4,000 year.
The following is the order "When-
ever pensioncr is disabled in a
hand or foot in Il degree emitting
him to SRA month under the act
OF March 3, 1883, such pensioner
shall by reason Of that fact be enti-
tied to the rate of $50 month un-
der the act of August 4, 1886"
Nearly S00pcnsioners get an increase
OF $7@ year by this order, and ar
rears from August 4, 1886.
"'Ihc noblest Roman of them
all" Allen G.. Thurman, late Dem
ocrotic candidate for Vice President,
was in Washington last week on
legal business. The old gentleman
was looking well and feeling well
with the exception of slight rheu-
matism i'll his legs. In converse
ton with friend he said "The
people Of the country were good
enough to me to vote that | should
stay at home, and personally l am
glad of it, but l regret the defeat of

Warner Miller, and Representative
West, Of New York, with swindling
and forgery in connection with his
management Of the North Carolina
Oil and Creosote Company, located
at Wilmington, N. G. 1t is also

Of this kind Cannaday says that

The Republicans have always
been notorious for their willingness
to make use at all times Of United
States vessels for private pleasure
parties and being out Of power four
years and without o precedent for
that length Of time has not changed
them a particle in this respect. On
Saturday afternoon Assistant Sec
rotary Of the Treasury, Tichenor,
took q party Of friends from here to
Baltimore, where they got aboard
Of the y. $. Revenue cutter McLano
and started on q trip to Chesepoke
Bay, which lasted from Sunday
morning to Monday morning. An
other Government vessel, the liQht-
house tender, Holly, has been lying
at the wharf here, waiting for three
days to carry President Harrison on
a pleasure trip down the Potomac.
