HERE'S PROTECTION FOR THE
POOR MAN.

Henry G. Minor has been nomi-
mated for Congress by the Republi-
cans Of the Third Louisiana District.
He has heretofore called himself q
Democrat, and some of the chest
families" with which he is connected
by birth and marriage, were very
much astonished at his consenting
to run on a Republican ticket, but
the Sunday Herald writer explains
Major Minors course as follows
"The present tariff on sugar
means to every Louisiana planter of
that staple about s17 per hogshead.
Gov. Warmoth made this year 800
hogsheads. Major Minor made
nearly 1900, the Mccall Brothers
made nearly 1900. The Mccall
Brothers made on the Evan Hall es-
tate LOO, while James Kock made
on Belle Alliance estate 300 hogs
heads' None OF the gentlemen
named are Republican except Wur-
moth and Minor, but where the
mere matter of maintaining the
present tariff on sugar means S25-
600 a year to planter the reason
for training with the tariff party IS
not difficult to perceive"
If it is all right for a member of
one Of the chest families to sell not
only bis vote but himself to politi-
cal party with which he does not
otherwise agrees, to the end that he
may get rich, Row can it be wrong
for q member Of one of the worst
families" to part with his vote OF
election day for a dollar, in order
that he may get bread, or whiskey,
or any other object Of desire p Ga-
zeffe.

which the Republican party owed
the coal barons, the manufacturers
and monopolists, and he understood
the methods by which it was to be
paid. AS a matter of course the
report of the arbitration committee
was rejected by the coal miners.
At meeting of the knights of La
Dor to consider the report of the
committee, they denounced the
plant tool of monoploy--this Re-
publican office holder--and the Re-
publican party in general, and de-
clared were it not for this Republican
ofiice-holder they could have won
their point.
The Journal and Era will see to
1t that the coal miners of Preston
county are kept ignorant of such
facts while they go ahead preaching
protection to American labor"
But the ARGUS, which is the true
friend of the laboringman, will see
to it that he is kept posted on the
progress of protection to Ameri-
can labor" as practiced by the Re-
publican party.
Now yell, we hawkers of pluto
cracy!

VERY PLAIN.

We can now understand why
Brother Dawson upheld the action
Of the Illinois coal barons towards
the striking miners; why he could
not understand why the miners
should have eighty cents n ton for
mining coal. 4 committee Of ar
bitration having been decided on,
the miners selected one, the coal
barons one, and the third was Sc
lectcd by the governor Of Illinois,
according to agreement. The gov
ernor selected a Republican office
holder. OF course this chap knew
his business knew what he was APP
pointed for, and what he was cx-
pected to do in the event Of a hitch
between the miners and coal baron 3
representatives. The result was
that this Republican ofice-holder
decided every point in favor Of the
coal companies. lie knew The debt

The high screamer of the Journal
can't understand why it is that the
coal miners of Illinois ask for eigh-
ty cents a ton for mining coal when
the miners OF West Virginia mine

no more knowledge of mining coal

THE Journal and Era used to
take great delight in telling the
farmers in the vicinity of Ncwburg
and Irondale how they would be
benefited by Protection. If Har-
rison was elected and the high pro-
tective tariff retained the mines and
furnaces would boom, hundreds of
men would be employed who would
eat up all the wheat, corn, potatoes.
butter, eggs, and all the garden
truck they could raise, and pay them
an enormous price for the same in
the home markets. Thus would
Protection fill their pocket-books.
Well, Harrison was elected, the pro-
tective tariff is the same, the Iron
dale furnace and Newburg mines
are closed down, which run all
through the Cleveland administra-
ton, and we have no doubt our
farmer friends in that section of the
county frequently ask themselves,
"What in the -- is the matter
with Harrison and Protection ?''

THE PARTY OF MORAL IDEAS.

President Harrison is not as hap
Ply as he might be with some of his
appointments. A keeper of house
of i'll repute in Indianapolis was
appointed to good position, and
last week another appointment was
made in North Carolina, and the
mans commission was forwarded to
him in the penitentiary. The burg
larious appropriation of fellow
citizens property had resulted in
his forming acquaintance with the
inside of prison walls.-jSentinel.

THE sugar trust is one of the
things the farmer who believes in
the beauties of n protective tariff
loves to talk about ard explain. A
bushel of frst-class potatoes will
buy two pounds of tolerably fair
sugar in this market, which is why

poor and the farmers are growing
rich. Sentinel.

WHEN the JOUrnal speaks Of q
slight increase in wages in some
isolated cases, it should be remem-
bered that there are only a few Of
the cases where the monopolists re-
duced the wages shortly after the
election Of Ben Harrison, and in
these few cases they have given a
slight increase, but they are not
paying as high wages yet az they
did under the Cleveland admins
