PROBABLY no more impudent re-
mark ever fell from the lips of Jay
Gould, Tom Reed, Boss Tweed or Matt
Quay than this observation by Major
Mckinley: ~ am convinced that the
judgment of our citizens does not ap-
prove the constant agitation of the
tariff issue in the face of the fact that
it can accomplish nothing" The man
in possession of plunder is always op-
posed to agitation on the part Of his
victims. In this respect Mr.. Mckinley
does not differ from a housebreaker of
the present, or slave driver Of the
past. There will be constant lighting
over this tariff question until it is set
tied right, and it cannot be settled
right until Major McKinley's monopo-
listic friends have been choked off,

THE latest from Washington is thai
Harrison has called his faithful officials
together, and put every man at work to
help him get the nomination for 1892.
The internal revenue gang, land customs
officials are to take care of all the
Southern States. Foster of the Standard
Oil and Gas Co., now Secretary of the
Treasury, is to take care Of Ohio. The
entire Federal patronage of the country
is to be taken out of its business work,
and put into political work. 1t will not
do to underestimate the political force
of such combination, in party that
is under the control of rings and COM
bines, and which has no conscience for
the people.

"oH1LpREN AND FOOLS TELL THE
TRUTH"


Ed. News DEMOCRAT; Julius Whit.
ing, so / hear, says the free coinage OF
silver is what defeated Gov. Campbell
in the last election. This is undoubt-
edly true; but McKinley's betters will
spank him and put him to bed politi-
cally, If he does not know enough to
hold his tongue about it.
1t seems so strange that one of Nc
Kinley's chief home hackers and o
member of his State Committee should
now admit that the Mckinley system
of robbery was not endorsed in the
election, but that the tight was won on
the silver issue, or side issue, And
yet jules Whiting is right. Even II
free silver was desirable 1t was very un.
wise of the Democrats to put that
doubtful and debatable measure into
their platform and thereby give the Re.
publicans an opportunity to put them
on the defensive and switch them of
from the main issue.
The knowing ones deny, but the idi-
OTIS admit, the truth that Campbell was
defeated by his friends and Mckinley
was elected by his enemies. H. A. II.

PUBLIC ROBBERY UNDER THE
eUIsE OF MoKINLEK1sM IS DEAD
IN MASSACHUSETTS.

The z. o. p. patriots in this section
have been saying, and are still saying,
that the election of GOV. Russell of
Massachusetts was due to his personal
popularity, and not to his vigorous as
saults upon the atrocities Of the Nc
Kinley tariff Here let us quote from
the old Boston Advertiser, the leading
Republican organ of Massachusetts,
The Advertiser says Russell's election
was "due to popular aversion of the
Mckinley BILL" adding:
"This exhibited itself notably at manu-
featuring centers. Massachusetts still
remembers how her interests were neg
lected that other States might reap an adj
vantage, most of the leaders in this cam
paign having tamely submitted in con-
gress and elsewhere 10 this sacrifice. II
doesn't require a very keen observer to see
that Massachusetts Ia not a hiRh-tarifl
State at this time, aud the Republicans
should reform their leadership SO as to
recognize the changed condition of public
sentiment
The Boston Herald, the leading in
dependent parer of New England
reads the lesson of the Massachusetts
election thus:
1t can no longer be said that the protest
of Massachusetts against the Mckinley
law, uttered in November OF 1890, was an
accident in politics, growing out of igno
rance or Misunderstanding. There is on
most matters, except the taritt, strong
Republican majority in this State; bu
from this time forward, so long as the
tariff is u great party issue and the Dem
ocratic neutrality-suspicious. in a ma
tional election-stand for tariff reform
while the Republican candidates stand toI
obnoxious measures, such as the McKin
ley law, Massachusetts, cannot be counted
on as Republican State,
The Republican masses of Massa-
chusetts are too intelligent to be
fooled with the McKinleyism; among
Ohio Republicans, however, every
thing goes.

CONGRESSMAN SPRINGER of Illinois
has a level head. He does not favor
the passage of tariff bill by the COM
ing Congress covering the entire
schedule, which would be defeated in
the Republican Senate; but he favors a
bill covering few items of the deepest
concern. He believes that free wool,
repeal of the compensatory duties on
wooden goods, free cotton ties, free
binding twine, free dye stuff and free
lumber are the trumps in the hands OF
the Democratic party, which it should
play as quickly and advantageously as
possible, holding the more doubtful
cards till after the Presidential election.

REMARKS ON A SMALL POTATO
SOLDIER.
(From the Chicago Herald.)

The new commander of the Grand
Army seems to be laboring under the
impression that he has all that there is
of American patriotism in his keeping.
The Herald considers itself authorized
to deny this assumption in the most
positive terms. Captain Palmer may
have been a good soldier, but IL he saw
much servicei in the war of the rebellion,
he must be getting on in years, and the
country cannot depend upon him alone
in the future. AS the small potatoes
come to the front in the Grand Army
organization, Americans will have
more and more reason to mourn the
loss of the sturdy old warriors, who led
tbeirarmies in time of strife and preach.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 10.-The Presidents
friends on the national committee will
advocate either Omaha or Minneapolis as
the place for holding the national conven.

weeks from today, unless the President
changes his mind. AT present he strong
ly prefers either of those towns to Chicago

Cincinnati. He has not forgotten the hos
tility of the Chicago papers in 1888, when
his representatives at the convention
could not get Harrison news into the Chi
cago papers, even when they offered to
pay advertising rates.
Cincinnati he regards as better, because
there is no local candidate and because
McLean's two Blaine papers, although the
only morning papers, are not influential.
He recognizes the fact that all Foraker's
influence with the Republican rowdies OF
Cincinnati would be against him; but, he
thinks, even so Cincinnati is preferable 10

nation il il was rendered him. Alger and
his friends are making all their arrange

Gov CAMPBELL never forgets to be a
thorough gentleman. He promptly
congratulated his successful rival when
satisfied of his own defeat. These two

the Governors carriage; they treated
each other with distinguished cour-
tesy throughout the entire canvass, hot
as it was, and they end by exchanging
courtesies as vanquished and victor.

district, N. Y, named Peck. He was a
coward and draft sneak during the
war, but that did not hurt him with his
party, in the election. But the Demo
Gratis are now contesting his election
on the ground that he is not citizen of
the State or of the United States. To
escape the draft in 1868, he got natural
ized in Canada, and when he came
back, after the war was over, neglected
to be renaturalized again. He is clear
