Washington Letter.
From our regular correspondent


WAsHIoGToN, D. C.May ~, 1890.
~, The two main topics of Major
Mckinley in debate was, first-the
great and beneflcent scheme of ex-
tending and liberalizlng the dra,o-
back sections of the law. The bill
provides that the drawbacks paid
by the government to the manu-
facturers of exported goods be
ninety nine per cent OF the duties
that exporters are obliged to pay
foreign Custo m-houses. Under the
present law 80 per cent Is paid.
The result Of this law Is that the
manufacturers we are, taxed to sup
port sell their goods to foreigners

The Beginning OF the End.


The Beginning OF the End.
I Time and again the DEMOCRAT
true to the best interest Of the peo
lpie, has sounded a faint h >te O
warning on the subject ofImpea"ia
ism within the Republican party
That their principles and practi
ces can lead to no other result, will
become plain to any one of un.
biased ideas, who will carefully
consider the present political stu.
alton and give close attention to
passing events.
That the country is on the eve
of a revolution, which will be
much more destructive to liberty
than the "Great Rebellion of 1861
65" is the teaching Of the hour.
When before in our history was
it proclaimed that the great mass
of our people should be heavily tax
ed, in order that few monopolists
may grow rich, and use their ILL
gotten gains to further subjugate
the people.
When before has the doctrine of
Federal interference with the elec.
tions of the people been publicly
proclaimed by a Speaker of the
Federal House?
When Autocrat Reed said at the
Pittsburg banquet "Let us hold our
own elections, and do our own
counting and certifying" he sound
ed the knell of dying liberty and
heralded the subjugation Of a free
people.
The utterance was no slip of the
tongue on the part of Reed; the oc-
casion and all the attending cir
cumstances proclaim it the result
of premeditation and unwavering
purpose.
The presence of the chairman of
the national Republican committee
adds significance to the language
and renders the avowal more por-
tentious. The Imperialists are at
bay, and now boldly avow their
purpose.
Former methods Of retaining
power are much to uncertain and
expensive.
Downright stealing as practiced
in 1875 and buying as practiced in
1888 are no longer available. These
arch conspirators and rebels know
and acknowledge that a large and
constantly growing majority is
against them and against their
ideas and practices and hence the
seizure of the machinery of the
elections is an absolute necessity
if they are to remain in power.
Another portentous event, is the
unanimity with which the I'M
perialistic press of the country, and |
the Imperialistic beneficiaries of
the treason of S6 in congress, accept |
the utterances ofBoss Quays hench-
man as to the settled policy Of the
party.
The expense Of this revolution,
for it is revolution and nothing
else, will be paid from the accumu-
lation of dollars wrung from the
people by the imposition of unjust,
and previously bur-
densome taxation thus forcing
them to pay the cost of their. own
despoiling.
Devils from the deepest depths
Of Dante's hell never concocted a
more damnable method for the en-
of a once free people.
When the scheme is put into pract-
ice and Boss Quay, Poppet Reed or
the monopoly machine under what
ever name shall be empowered to
elections, and to count and
certify the votes at. will, 1t will re-
luire more, much, ore,than ma
ority of votes and voters to give
The people q voice in the govern
ment' which they once fondly
jailed their own.
We are at he,parting Of the ways {
md we much doubt If the crime of
1888 will, or can'be washed, away,

THE Democracy of the new
Thirteenth District, the haw-eater
district as it is called,are beginning
to bestir themselves. Quite num-
of candidates have been announced
by their friends. The most impor-
tant are the foIlowing: Chapman
Of. this county, Price, Weldy, and
Wright, of Hooking County, Hysell
of Perry County, and Reeves, of
Fairfield. This is respectable
list both in number and ability.
We believe that it includes the
best Democratic timber in the
State, and if we must be represent
ed one Of these men. DUNCAN, of
our county, has been a candidate
for Congress-, but it seems the Dem
ocrats never bring him out except
when they can not elect their can
didate.
We Will say here, that the DEM
ocrats mustnot expect a walk over
in this district. We believe that
the Republicans of this district,
provided the Nc Comas bill does
not pass, will exert themselves to
the utmdW and with the timber we
have to select from, we may be
able to defeat such a=strong Brice
man as Hyseil even. Let the Re-
publicans bestir themselves and
prepare for whatever may come
