PLATFORM VIEWS.

- The Democratic platform declares
strong against protection. 1t don't
mince matters on this issue one bit.
Now, that is what the News likes to see,
and would have been better pleased if
the Republicans had taken as bold
stand OIL the opposite side. As mat
Ter of fact, the Republicans of this state
are in favor of protection, but, unfor-
hlnately, timid leaders have been al
.l0wed to draw the platforms in at least
tw0 conventions, and they have evolved
milk and water paragraphs or contra
dictOry statements of the party'S posi-
ton on this STRAIGHTFORWARD News.
Republican tariff planks are more nu-
nominees, and, if possible, they repre-
sent less principle. What is the policy
of the Republican party? Is it tariff for
votes oniy?-McIntosh Times.
The Democratic state platform does
declare for free trade; the Republican
does not. 1t means nothing. 1t was
written to hide any real meaning, yet
its author, Gordon E. Cole, is as pro-
nOunced free trader as Frank Hurd,
Everett p. Wheeler, Henry Watterson
or Gideon WelleS. If the Republican
party of Minnesota will allow a free
trader to write nOndescript platform
for it. it does not become party newspa-
pers to raise the cry OF free trade in
state campaign.-Duiuth Times.

trict Republican platform:

revision and ask that they be continued

NOT FOR THE WORKERS.

There have been at times intlmations
that the protective policy was designed
to benefit those who earn wages in the
manufactures to be promoted. Cham
pions of the policy have noisily urged
this view upon the toilers. There have
been practical difficulties in the way of
this claim when it has been sought to
leave the theoretical part and look at
the facts. Still, there has been effective
use made of it, and it still is believed by
many. They have absorbed the idea
that the accruing advantages to capital
must be passed down to those who make
it productive. The new tariff measure
is not quite completed legislation yet,
but its passage is so nearly assured that
the beneficiarieS are reported in some de-
partmentS preparing to improve the
greater opportunities to be afforded
them. Corporations that employ 10000
men have already prepared for con-
certed action that looks to an early re-
duction of wages, while the prices of
the productions will be enhanced.
Among the conditions of this combina-
tion are rigorous rules relating to the
WoIhHleI. lie WHOLE IOrce OF the
combination is to be brought to bear to
crush out a strike in any one of the
factories, and a prompt and heavy foot
is to fall upon any who ask for increased
wages, shorter hours, or the redress of
any grievances. 1t is expected that
pretty much all the mining and manu-
featuring interests that have been par
ties TO the negotiations that have do
veloped the MCKINLEY bill will be
embraced in this organization. They
will have enlarged profits, but the men
who labor will not share them. 1t is not
protection for them.

THE POTATO FAMINE.

The general failure of the potato
crop this year, both in this country and
in Europe, is more serious disaster than
is generally supposed. A famine already
threatens Ireland. where potatoes are
the main reliance for food among the
tena ntTy. Fortunately. the cereal prod
uct of the United States is enough for
home consumption, and fair surplus
to supply the European demand. Yet
the failure of the potato crop in the
United States is going to add very con-
siderably to the cost of living during
the next year, particularly among the
poorer classes. Potatoes are the cheap
est, as they are the whoIesOmeSt of
American food products, and are in
more general use than any other vege-
table. They are an excellent substitute
for bread, and in years when bread
stuffs are high. there is many poor
family which relies on the potato crop
for suStenance.
This year potatoes are as costly as
breadstuffS because of their scarcity.
Even here in Minnesota, the finest po-
tato-growing country on the continent,
and where there is never total failure
of the crop, potatoes are ranging we'll up
in price with wheat. Last year the best
potatoes could be bought here in st.
Paul for 25 cents a bushel. This year
potatoes of an inferior quality are worth
from Is cents to 81. BY estimating the
quantity of potatoes consumed in Min
nesota for one year, and the difference
III the cost of them between this year
and last. we readily see how much the
cost of living will be increased. If it is
so here, what difference it must make
i'll localities where the crop is total
failure, and where potatoes cannot be
had at any price.
As we have said, the unfortunate part
of this calamity is that it falls the heay-
lest upon those who are least able to
bear it. The poorer classes are the real
sufferers, for with them potatoes are the
staple food article. The seriousness of
the situation is increased by the fact
that the potato famine comes at time
when wages are to be lowered and the
taxes to be increased under the opera
ton of the new tariff law about to pass
congress.

WHAT WINDOW THINKS.

81 do not attribute it to the manipula-
lions of Wall street, though it may be
that in some cases.advantaee has been
taken of the conditions to intensity the
stringency," says Secretary Window in
the New York World. Nor do l at
tribute the stringency to general Specu-
lations throughout the country, though
it is doubtless true that they have con-
triEuted their full share by keeping our
products from market. 1t is certainly
not in the remOteSt degree chargeable
to an influx of money into the treasury
from customs duties or internal revenue
taxes, for, as shown by statement
published in the papers, the outflow of
money from the treasury for payment
of our bonded debt and other purposes
during the last year has exceeded by
S41, 100000 the entire receipts. The
amount paid out during the last twenty
three days for bonds and interest is
over 100000, and for pensions Sl9,-
000 900.
''In my Judgment it is attributable
mainly TO the remarkable activity i'm
business of ali kinds in connection with
the great advance in values during the
last eighteen months. The increase in
values on Sept. l of three products OF
agriculture (wheat, corn and CATS,
based upon the crop and prices of 1889,
amounted to over 500, 600, 600: and if to
this be added the increased price of all
other products of industry, the total in
crease for this year will doubtless
largely exceed $1,000. 100000. This in
crease of values necessarily requires
much larger amount of money to handle
the products, and hence the unusual
demand from the South and West. An
other cause may be found in the large
increase of importations requiring the
shipment of gold abroad.
1.-The three propositions for relief now
pending exhaust the powers of the sec
rotary. There is no doubt that they
will bring full and satisfactory relief if
the holders. of the bonds are disposed to
cooperate with the treasury. l do not
think there is great danger of serious
financial troubles. This offer for per
cent bonds is exceptional, and made to
meet exceptional conditions. 1t is not
to be regarded as the policy of the adj
ministratiOn, for with this pur-
chase, ii it shall be made, the
treasury would go out of the market for
the purchase of that class of bonds, and
will hereafter apply the current surplus
to the purcaSe of the AZ per cents"

A TARIFF DEBATE.

The anticipated political debate be-
tween the candidates for governor in
North Dakota has been lnaugurated, by
invitation of Col. BENTON. the nominee
of the Democrats. Meetings are to be
had at thirteen prominent points that
will enable the greater portion of the
voters to hear the questions discussed,
and size up the gentlemen who would
have their support. By the letters ar
ranging for the debate it appears that
Mr.. JOHNSON agrees to defend the Re
publican tariff declaration of 1883, and
find its Interpretation in the MCKINLEY
bill as it originally passed the house,
fresh from the hands of the author of
the tariff plank. In spite of the fact
that about twO-thirds of the people of
that state have been voting the Repub-
lican ticket and have been saturated
with protective dogmas, Mr.. JOHNSON
has made bold venture in consenting
to uphold the system that Mr.. McKIN-
LEY is the high priest of. His task will
be to convince the farmers that they are
benefited by the payment of needlessly
high prices upon their implements,
clothing and groceries. He will meet
the statement of one that none dare dis
pute, that the bill does not open the
way to new market for single bushel
of wheat or any other product they have
to sell. The people of no state are
more i'll need of free access to the
markets of the world than those
of North Dakota. Their main pro-
ductiOn Is superior article of
breadstuff, and the price they receive
for it is determined in the foreign mar
ket. No tariff on wheat can bring them
any advantage. and even the 81 ton
on straw and two cents per head on
cabbages proposed by their representa-
