Standing For The Peoples Rights

VAN ANTWERP, BRAGG & Co. after the
failure Of their last desperate effort to dis
credit the Indiana school book company by
showing that it was not honestly fulfilling
its contract, say through their organ, the
Journal:
Whether the school books furnished by the
state monopoly come up to the contract
standard in mechanical execution and appear
anee is OF the smallest possible consequence
compared with the question whether the law is
right in principle and what influence il will
nave on the schools aud the school system Of
the state. The discovery Of felg defective books
afBOng UoUsdnds tcouId not be at all sllrDrisin1
and on the other hand, IL every one came
fully up TO the contract standard. il would
prove nothing as to the merits of the law,
which, in the opinion of the Journal is radically
wrong in theory and pregnant with mischievous
results. AS matter of fact, the books are
lotoriously inferior, and will work a steady
degradation Of the schools, but even this is OF
less consequence than the fact that the law
violates the plainest principles of local self
1vernment, and, under the false pretense of
remedying a wrong deprives the people of
fundamental rights. Time will show that il is
wrong in theory, expensive and burdensome in
practice. and fraud in every essential respect.
Then the people will repeal it.
Sol is the law and not the books that the
Van Antwerp Bragg Journal combination
IS distressed about, is it? We suspected
as much. No books that could be fur
nished under this law, or under any law
which prevented the trust from monop-
olizing the business, and charging three
prices for books. would be satisfactory to
the Van Antwerp Bragg Journal combi-
nation.
The chief trouble is, you see, not so
much that the books are VIGOROUSLY in
ferior" and work a steady degradation of
Schools" although this fills the souls of
VAN ANTWERP and BRAGG with grief, and
causes deep gloom at the Journal
office. The real difficulty is that
Inc law violates the plainest prin-
ciples of self-government," and "deprives
the people of fundamental rights" It's this
that breaks VAN ANTWERP and BRAGG and
the Journal all up If there is any one
thing they can't stand it is to see the
people deprived OF Fundamental right"
The fundamental right" to be compelled
t. buy a school book selected by board
Of accomplished and scholarly township
trustees, and to pay three prices therefor.
is very dear TO the peoples heart. And as
hey have been deprived of this right, and
forced, by a law which violates the
olainest principles of local self govern
ment," to buy school books selected
by illiterate college professors and

disgracefuny low prices, VAN ANTWERP

it will probably not be many years before

earth. The change in Australia, however,
is certain to come about in very different

Doodle in Elections.

Says the Washington correspondent of
the Courier-Jo,Tndl:
Some time ago a proposition was made
to the national democratic committee from
democrats of Washington and Montana that
If as little as $4,000 was raised and sent
them they could carry their states. Fortunate
ly, or unfortunately, the case may be, the
committee had no money, aud replied TO that
eject. When it came down to q question of
dollars and cents, pure question of merchan.
disc, purchase of individuals in 'blocks of
five" the democratic party has not got the
shadow OF chance. Ii our national committee
had been able to put mp as much as $4,000 to
corrupt the new voters OF Washington and
Montana, both states would have been ours to-
day. Bnt it is just as well. The day will come
when principles, ana not money, will triumph
in national politics. And ii that day does not
come, 1t is only question of time when you
can bid goodbye to a wise, free government, as
founded by our forefatheTs.
This is all true. Every word of it. And
the lesson of it is that democrats every
where and all the time should press for
the enactment of laws which will reduce
or destroy the opportunities for the sue
cesSful employment of money and intim-
idation at elections The democrats all
over the country are waking up to the i'm
portance of this matter All, or nearly
all, the state platforms adopted by the
democrats this year have declared for the
Australian system of voting, and other
measures to promote the secrecy OF the
ballot and the purity of elections.
1t is gratifying to reflect that the demo-
Gratis of Indiana were the first to move in
this direction. The law passed by our
legislature last winter is being made the
model for prospective legislation in
other states. Experience will doubt
less develop some defects and weak
nesses in it, but these can be and will be
remedied, and we have no doubt that the
law, even as it stands, will do away with
at least 70 per cent. OF the bribery, intimi,
dation and fraud which have character
lied our elections in the past.
THE SENTINEL looks back upon the work
it did in order to secure the enactment of
this law with immense satisfaction.
Scarcely a week passes that we do not re-
ceiverequests-many of them from distant
states-for copies OF this act. 1t is pro-
nounced all over the coun try. in advance
of actual trial, the best election law in the
United States. 1t needs to be supple
mented by a rigid law regulating expendi-
lures in political campaigns, and requir-
ing the publication OF the accounts Of all
candidates and campaign committees.
The dead-beats and politicians for revenue
only will oppose such legislation, but hon.
est men of all parties will favor it, and
when it is secured, as it will be, we shall
have as pure elections in Indiana as in
any other community on earth.

JONI t. ABBorr, the American minister

JOHN T. ABBOTT, the American minister
at Bogota, writes to the state department:
The Colombian may admire the institutions
of the "great republic as he calls il, but he is
not for that reason willing to pay friend,
however dear TO him, cents a yard for cotton
cloth which he can buy of some one else for pa
cents. 1t will require something more than
sentiment to change the volume of trade.
Here's the situation in nutshell. We
can not sell our manufactured products in
Latin America, in successful competition
with those of Europe, until we can sell
them as cheaply. This we can never do,
so long as our manufacturers are handi-
capped by heavy taxes on their raw ma
teriaIs, machinery, etc. All the banquets
we can give to the 'panAmericans, and
all the fine speeches we can make to them,
and all the subsidies we may vote to steam
ship lines, will not induce the people OF
Central and South America to buy in a
dear market, when cheap markets are open
to them.
The Indiana State sentinel. [volume] (Indianapolis) 1868-1895, 1889-11-27

JARRETT then proceeds to enumerate cloth
ing, hardware, furniture and other arti-
cles-all of which he found to be as dear
in England as in this country. If our
protective tariff does not enable American
manufacturers to get more for clothing,
hardware, furniture and other articles
than those things fetch in England, we
wish Mr.. JARRETT would explain how it
enables them to pay labor higher wages
than is paid in that country. Either Mr..
JARRETT is wrong when he says that these
things are as dear in England as here, or
the protective tariff to which he is so
warmly devoted doesn't protect anybody
to the extent of "single red cent"
The Indiana State sentinel. [volume] (Indianapolis) 1868-1895, 1889-11-27

As TO the ACCESSIBILITY OF a restoration of the
tariff on hides and other by-prOducts OF live
stock, there can be no doubt of the fairness of
such demand as long as tariH is maintained
on other American industries. Ii it is proper
to have a tariff on the wool of a sheep il is GER
tainly proper to have tariff on the hide and
hair or a COW. ii it is proper to give protec.
ton to the owners of our iron, lead and copper
mines, it is equally so TO give protection TO the
producers OF hides, hair, bones. horns hOOfs,
blood, etc.-Address OF the Teras cattle Olcners.
The argument is a good one; indeed it
is unanswerable. If it is proper that the
people OF the country should be taxed in
order to make sheep-growing remunerat-
i've to small number of their fellow-cit-
liens, it is just as proper that they should
be taxed in order to make cattle raising
profitable to others of their fellow-citizens.
There is no argument for the protection Of
wool which is not equally good for the
protection of hides. A republican con-
gress in 1867 repealed the tax on hides
and the result has been beneficial to many
important industries. There is no doubt
that like result will follow the repeal of
the tax on wool. The proposition to re-
store the tax on hides has been received
with great disgust in New England, the
chief seat of the boot and shoe industry,
but it ought to be just as obnoxious to
every section OF the country, because free
hides mean cheap footwear, and that is a
thing that every man, woman and child
has need of. To be consistent, congress
ought to either restore the tax on hides, or
repeal the tax on wool.
