yyOrkingmen DupetI by a Scam
dai0us Political Trick.

Early in the last Presidential cam
paign the coal miners of Clay county,
Ind, were notified by the operators
that it would be for their interest
to vote for the Republican candi-
dates. To bring the matter home
to them with greater force, as the
day of election drew near, some of
the mines were shut down and the
men reduced to idleness. In an
nouncing the closing, the. officers of
the mining companies explained
that it was due to the tariff agita-
ton. To make this clear, letters
We're published from o. B. Potter
and other manufacturers in Chicago,
who are also heavily interested in
Clay county mines, stating that the
prospect of Cleveland's election and
the passage of the Mills bill had
compelled them to close their works
and hence to suspend their purchase
of coal, and that the suspension
would probably be indefinite unless
Harrison was elected, the protective
tariff saved and "public confidence
restored" The correspondence was
published in the Indianapolis Jour
RaI-Harrison's home official organ
and other Republican papers, and
was placed in the hands of every
miner in Indiana and of thousands
of other workingmen. 1t undoubt-
eddy had its desired effect in chang
ing many votes from Cleveland to
Harrison, and in Clay county the
majority for the Democratic candi-
dates was reduced to very narrow
margin.
Mr. Cleveland was not elected, the
Mills bill did not pass; General Har-
rison was elected, the high protec-
tive tariff was saved, and, it is to be
presumed, public confidence was re-
stored. How was it with the Clay
county miners? Were they saved
as well as the protective tariff
Having given their votes as the
bosses directed, did the bosses keep
faith with them by reopening the
mines and employing them at old
rates2 Not much. The men had
simply been duped by a scandalous
trick, and the parties to the fraud
laughed at the simplicity of their
dupes-
When the operators were ready
to reopen the mines they fixed "a new
scale of wages, which the men re-
fused to accept. Harrison is Presi-
dent, and the high protective tariff
is saved, but the operators insisted
on cut in wages of from twenty to
twenty-five per cent, the heaviest
cut ever made in the State. The
operators throughout the State made
common cause against the mon and
insisted on the reduction. For two
days the operators and the miners
were in conference at Brazil, Clay
county, the men proposing that the
differences between them be sub
mitted to arbitration. The opera.
tors would not consent to arbitra.
ton, and told the men they could
either take the reduced wages or &c
without work. They will accept
the reduced wages

ures in the United States since the
beginning of the year, according to

The total number failures last year

1853, showing an increase this year
of almost 500 failures in five months.

cember, 1887, and President Glove

had "paraIyzed the business of the
country" and was running Ameri-

ures of last year were pointed to us
evidence of Democratic assaults on
business" and lying reports about
business failures were piled on top
of those which actually occurred to
create "scare." Men We're assur-
red that if the Republican candidate

would be a revival of business con
