if this was only superficial indication OF ior-

States have been heavy borrowers in London

THE LEAGUE At YORK.

With Mr.. Clarlson's return the active cam
paign of the National League will begin. It's
onnortunities are great and manifest The i'm
nortant campaigns this fall happen to be IN
those States where the League is strong al
ready. and where it has given proof of its utility
in awakening public interest and in organizing
its members for hard work. in New ork
Ohio and Iowa especially, where the results of
the elections will be highly significant, it pos
sesses great army of energetic workers who
only need to be infused with the zeal which
distinguishes it's president Mr. Clarkson sue
ceeds in nothing more quickly and certainly
than In inspiring others with his own courage
and force His knowledge of the situation IN
the West will enable him to render the League
with It's peculiar methods Of work highly eff
fectual in counteracting the influence OF the
Farmers Alliance. Nothing in the history OF tho
development OF that organization offers PROOF
that its strength is drawn from the impossible
planS which ambitious politicians have per
suaded it to assume. Primarily it is the result
of the social instinct Undoubtedly, the farm
ers generally have felt that their profits were
lower than they ought to be, and have been
disposed to listen with an inclining ear to any
scheme that promised higher values and freer
money But unlimited coinage and the sub
Treasury scheme are not the cause of their
present association. They are rather result
of il. The farmers organized largely from class
sympathy and under a social compact for self
defence against combinations intended to adj
vance the prices of machinery, freights and
other necessities, and to depress the price OF
fruits and grain. Their political movement
was later undertaking into which they were
borne and driven by demagogues.
Although the last elections were far from
showing that the average farmer mas identified
himself with any of the wild schemes officially
advocated by the Alliance, they did show that
the organization was dangerously strong IN hall
q dozen States whose continued fidelity to Re-
publican policies is most important. The Re-
publican League better than any available in
fuence is competent to draw the farmers or
Iowa. Minnesota, Kansas and Ohio back into
their relations with the Republican party. BY
close and complete organization which shall in
clude every citizen whose incinations are toward
Republican principles, by the maintenance OF
club-rooms constantly open for discussion and
friendly intercourse by frank debate In open
meetings where the interchange OF views shall
be invited freely, and by such a thorough dis
tribution of Republican newspapers as will in
sure TO every voter the Opportunity of under
standing the aims Of the party and the results
of it's administration and legislation, force can
be exerted upon public opinion which will inevi-
tably bring ont many thousands of Republican
ballots that might otherwise be lost The
League movement promises great advantages
and deserves the hearty support of all who wish
Republican policies sustained.

SOUARTNG THE CIRCLE.

The Democratic party is rallying around tho
old standard of Free Trade Last year there
was only one leader of the party in Ohio who
yentured to proclaim himself a Free Trader
without eqmvocation and reserve. This year
the State Convention condemns Protection as an
ubiquitous policy favors " a tariff levied for the
sole purpose of producing a revenue sufficient
to defray the legitimate expenses of the Gov
eminent economically administered" and calls
for graded income tax tariff for revenue
only was what the Democratic National plat
form demanded in 1876 and 1880. This IS
what the Ohio Democrats now want, but being
mindful of the fact that England with it's reve-
nue. tariff Is compelled to tax incomes, 1t adopts
that feature of the Free-Trade system. by de-
manding the imposition of the income tax, they
emphasize in the most practical way their abb
soute conversion to Free Trade. In fact they
virtually revive the tariff plank Of the Demo
cratic National Conventions in 1856 and 1860,
which declared:
The time has come for the people If the United States
10 declare themselves In favor Of free seas and progress
sve free trade throughout the world, and by solemn
manifestations place their moral influence at the side
OF their successful example.
A revenue tariff and taxation of incomes not
Only e0lOOuleS inc -JTduo lucdS vi LIS l'Hu'
but also evives the revenue system of the
Confederate States when they were the Solid
South in rebellion. The secessiOniSts were Free
Traders In the constitution adopted by the
Confederate States the powers conferred upon
Congress excluded Protection. Free Trade was
made the foundation of the Confederacy rs
shown by the following extract from the defni-
ton of the legislative powers:
To lay and collect taxes duties, imposs and excuses
for necessary to pay the debts provide for the
common defence, and carry on the government OF the
Confederate States; but bOunties shall be granted
from the Treasury shall any duties or taxes on
lmpoItaions from foreign nations be laid to promote or
foster any branch of industry; and all duties, lmposs
and excuses shall be uniform throughout the Con-
federate States.-(Confederate CONSTITUTIONAL
The Ohio Democrats have thus squared the
circle of their historic past. BY declaring them
selves to be opposed to the ubiquitous" policy
of Protection and to be in favor Of a tariff for
revenue only and of the imposition of income
taxes, they return bag and baggage to the
Free-Trade lines of the Buchanan Breckenridge
and Douglas conventions and support with the
moral influence and example the traditions of
the Confederate Congress. Our friends in Ohio
have the advantage of knowing exactly where
the enemy is encamped.

OCEAN MAIL PROPOSALS,

The Postmaster-Generafs circular inviting
bids for ocean mail service marks the beginning
of new policy which aims TO restore the Amen-
can flag to the seas. The details of the recent
act passed by Congress have been exhaustiyey
considered and comprehensive action has been
taken to carry out the intent of the legislation
The postmaster-Genera has had n most diff
cult duty to discharge, and he has succeeded adj
mirably in opening mp the whole subject on
such broad lines as to test the practical value
of the act. The circular may be regarded as
tentative in it's effects. 1t is designed to call
in proposals for a fast ocean mail service in
American bottoms from six Atlantic, four Gulf
and three Pacific ports. and to improve postal
communications with Europe, South America,
the West Indies, Central America, Australia,
China and Japan. The POStmaSter-Ge General
has acted upon the principle that the first work
to be accomplished is to ascertain practically
what can be done under the provisions of the
act. BY inviting proposals for mail service in
the broadcast possible way he appeals strongly
10 American enterprise and capital to take ad-
vantage of the new law and to supply the Ma
ton with an improved and largely developed
commercial marine on the high seas.
We have described this circular as the be-
ginning of a new policy. 1t would have been
more accurate to term it a reverSion to the en-
lightened Democratic policy which prevailed be-
fore the Civil War-that of making the mail
service medium for the development of ship
ping interests. In 1855 under n Democratic Adj
miniStation the amount paid for mail service to
vessels sailing under the American flag was
81 ,936,715 and there was not year of that
decade of Democratic Congresses when con-
siderably more than 81 1000, 900 was not ex-
pended for that purpose-often nearer 81, O0O.-
900 than S1,000,000. When Mr.. Villas took
it upon himself to veto an act Of Congress
passed for the relief Of shipping interests and
10 cut down the amount paid to American YES
sells for mail service 10 the beggarly sum Of
S43,3l9, he was not acting aS an old-time
Democrat. The Republican policy of convert
ing the postal service into an active agency
for promoting the development of the American
carrying trade is one which has been repeatedly
sanctioned in the past by Democratic Congresses
1t Is ono that can heartily be supported by all
Americans on broad, patriotic grounds
The United States during the last two wears
has been asserting its dignity as continental
and maritime Power. An international con.
ference has been held at Washington in order
