ana Wouiu give three sOlu nepuDlcan
electoral votes.
The force bill has passed the Republi-
can house of representatives. 1t is pend
ing in the senate but it will not be passed
for in the face of the general uprising of
indignant people of all parts of the coun
try against it. the Republicans of the
senate are weakening and dividing. This
bill had its origin at a banquet OF monopo-
lists in P~ittsburg. where Speaker Reed
proposed that the Republican party should
perpetuate its power by a law which
would allow the party to do Its own count
ing, registration and certIicaIion. 1t is a
law which places In partisan hands the
entire voting machinery of congressional
elections. 1t is a law in the interest OF a
dishonest vote and a dishonest count.
A vital question is that OF the tariff.
The idea of the government is that of
finding means by which the natural rights
of men and property rights are to be
protected. Under this idea property
should bear uniformly the burdens of the
government. The man owning $40, 900
should pay ten times the amount of taxes
as the n owning 81, 900. The Demo
cratic party says that under a high tariff
this is not done. An illustration of this:
A shipment of hats is brought into this
country. They can be landed at New
York for 81 each. A duty Of so per cent
is added, making them 50 when finally
sold to the people who use them. Every
individual who buys one pays the 81 duty
no matter whether he be a man earning
a dollar a day or a millionaire with an in
come of 81, 900.
The Democratic party does not be-
lieve in free trade. but it does believe
that the taxing power should not be placed
in the ten per cent OF the people repre-
sented in manufacturing to the prejudice
of the remaining 90 per cent of tho peo-
pie. Tho price Of labor is regulated by
supply and demand and the general con-
ditions oftrade. Why is it that Powderly.
the greatest friend OF the workingman in
this country. and who has given this
question years Of study and is better
acquainted perhaps than any man living
with the actual condition of the laborine
men in all parts of the world, is trying at
the present time to defeat the party of
monopoly headed by Quay and Reed, if
he did not know that q high tariff was
only a benefit to ~monopolists and not to
workingmen.
Regarding Chinese labor, in 1864 the
Republican party in absolute control Of
the government passed the law author
king the contracting OF foreign, in
GLIDING Chinese labor. Il was not
changed until 1878. when a Democratic
house tried to repeal it but was prevented
by a Republican senate. In 1882, when
the Chinese restriction bill was pending
Republican senators including Mr.. Her-
rison, voted against every amendment TO
make the bill effective. When the bill
finally passed 1t could not have been en-
Horced because the Republican Judges
decided its provisions did not apply to the
Chinese who came from Hong Kong,
that being under British control aud it was
not until 1885, when a Democratic con
gress finally changed the act that the
Chinese could be excluded.
