SCRATCH.

SCRATCH.
The following from the editorial coll
umns of the ntcUigaccr is so arrant a
piece Of falsehood and cheap demagogy
that 10 is nothing but surprising that
even our contemporary would resort TO
10, even in the absence of AN honest
argument;
The poor man is forced by the outrageous
Republican tariff act 70 pay more for his
veivets, pushes. imported cigars and
French champagne, and then he IS not sure
that his cigars are imported or his wines
real French champagne. And he is asked
90 console himself with, among other
things, S.J.OOO,OOO q year cut Of the duties
on his SUGAR. But IL won't work. Sugar
is nothing champagne and imported ci-
gars everything. The necessarics of life
we can do without; the Injuries we must
have.
This is supposed Co be a sarcastic de-
Tense OF the Mckinley tariff. and is an
iutimatiou that the poor man will bee
forced by the Mckinley tariff To pay
more only ou "his velvetS. pushes, inn
ported cigars and French champagne.
and will get his sugar cheaper
