SENATOR HoAR writes to his party
friends in Massachusetts: "We will pass
sion of this Congress, and then the Dem
ocrats will be unable to repeal it, even
though they should have majority in
the next House. The Republican ma
jority in the Senate guarantees the laws
permanency after it is once enacted. !"
This statement of this Republican lead
er shows the great necessity for the peo-
pie to arouse and rise up in their might
to throttle the Force bill at the polls in
November. Give the Republican con-
spirators such mighty rebuke that
they will not dare to pass the infamous
measure.

IN it's headlines the morning of Octo-
ber 1 the State journal says that "Sena-
tors Plumb, Pettigrew and Paddock
jumped the fence and voted with the
Democrats" on the passage of the Nc
Kinley high tariff bill. These three
Republican Senators are supposed to
represent the interests of their States.
They hail from the agricultural States
of Kansas, Nebraska and South Dakota.
They know that an increase of tariff
taxes, which the Mckinley bill pro-
vides is a further injury to the already
suffering agricultural interests of their
States, and they accordingly voted
against the iniquity. Though they had
to Jump the fence and vote with the
Democrats to do it, as the State Jour
nal thus attempts to stigmatize them,
they for once stood by the farmers of
their States.

The Force bill enables the Republic
an party to employ an unlimited number
of supervisors and marshals, at the rate
of $40 day, to carry any close county
or district, either north or south. 1t
compels the Clerk. of the House of Rep
sentatives to place upon the roll of the
House, under penalty of a heavy fine
and Imprisonment, the names of Mem
bers of Congress returned to him as
elected by a partisan returning board.

citizens with bristling bayonets, to in

The products of the soil have de-
creased in value, so, also, has farm land,
but the necessities of the poor man have
increased in price. The rich and pow
erful are made more so. Their luxuries
have remained untouched, and in many
cases the duties on them were decreased.

THE Legislature convened in extra session
yesterday, in accordance with Gov. CampbelPs
proclamation. As to the necessity of such ac-
tion on the part of the Governor. there is
wide divergence of expression. In the mean
time it is well to presume that the Governor is
actuated by high motives. and should develop
ments disclose the state of corruption charged
in the municipal government of Cincinnati, it
is high time to devise means to turn the ras-
Gals out irrespective of their party affiliations.
The Governor advises in his message that the
Board of Public Improvements be abolished
and the city be allowed to elect Board at the
coming November election.

DAN RYAN, the Republican candidate
for Secretary of State refuses to explain
why he required $25, 900 more than any
body else ever had to run the office. He
is one of those fellows who thinks it is

their affairs are conducted by those
holding Office. They will return their
opinion of him later along. Honest

THE Republican party is the friend of
the working classes. Of course it is be-
cause it has reduced the duty on seal
skin sacques from 80 to 20 per cent. This
puts them right in the reach of the hir-
ed help about the house. Glorious mil
lenium this when sealskins are 10 per
cent. nearer the poor than they were.

THE Mckinley high tariff bill is
measure wholly in the interest of the fat
fried monopolies that furnish the money
that bought Harrison's election. Nc
Kinley says the Republican party has
redeemed its pledges in the passage of
his bill The pledges were made to the
fat-fried monopolies when they put up
the Doodle in 1888. 1t is no wonder that
the monopolists are so we'll pleased.
They now have the highest tariff the
country has ever seen-higher than
the war tariff-and it gives them an OPP
portunity to rob the people on more
gigantic scale than ever.

GOVERNOR CAMPBELL, at Canton:

THE Mckinley high tariff bill is ad-

IHE Mckinney nigh tariff DILL IS ad-
vancing prices on all necessities oflife-
tinware, clothing, woolens, food. boots and
shoes, cutlery, guns, axes, ammunition,
and many other things too numer-
Gus to mention. The coal miners
at Irwin station, on the Pennsylvania
railroad, are on a strike for higher
wages. They will need higher wages
this winter more than for many winters
past. The Mckinley bill socks the
tariff tax onto them in merciless style.
If high tariff means high wages, as Re-
publicans claim, then the wages of these
Irwin miners ought to be increased to
keep pace with the increase in the tariff
made by the Mckinley bill. But the
coal companies that employ these
miners instead of increasing their wages
are importing Hungarians, Italians,
Poles, and all the European riff-raff that
can be scraped up in the slums of New
York City to take their places.

THE Mckinley high tariff bill has fin
ally passed both houses of Congress, and
now the farmer may prepare to pay
higher price for every thing he buys,
and receive less price for every thing
he sells. All the other tariff bills pass
ed by the Republican party have made
the farmer poorer, as this Mckinley
tariff bill has raised the tariff still
higher than ever, it will make the con-
dition of the farmer still worse than

Saws a recent washington dispatch:

Says a recent Washington dispatch:
Democratic members of both Houses of
Congress are deeply regretting that their
attention was not drawn in time to make
use of it in discussion to the advertise
ment which appeared over the sigma
ture of one of Mr.. Harrison's officers in
the leading Philadelphia papers. They
say that a more shameless admission
that Cabinet officer has been specu-
lating on the effect of a bill which he
had inside methods of knowing would
become law has never before been
openly disclosed Here is the announce
ment referred to, cut from Philadel-
phia paper, which printed it in loaded
small-pica type, in the most conspicu-
Gus part of the paper:
Tinware is advancing in cost and
very soon the manufacturers will
have their way, and you and me will
have to pay very much more. In
view of this state of things, we made
some time since large purchase of
kitchen tinware at what was a low
price then, and would be far lower

This extraordinary admission by an
executive officer of the government that
a bill which was that very morning to
be submitted to the President and Cabi-
net, of which he was member, for ap-
nroyal or disapproyal would necessarily
increase the price of tinware and would
give manufacturers their own way, but
that he John Wanamaker) had taken
advantage of that knowledge to lay in
preliminary stock, is perhaps unex-
ampled in audacity. There would have
been lively time over the tinware
clause if this advertisement had been
noticed in time. 1t is even now being
made the subject of some serious COM
ment by Republicans as we'll as Demo-
