Presidential Guesswork.

The Press figures out the probable electoral vote of 1892 as follows: Re publican. 204; democratic, I69: doubt ful. IL It's doubtful states are-Nev York, S6; Michigan. II; Indiana, l5; Connecticut, 6.
 New York has just elected the democratic state ticket by 45,000 ma jority, with a bitter factioual feud ill the democratic ranks and tine mug wumps generally supporting the re pubiicans. There is certainly little to expect for the republicans there. Michigan wIll divide her electoral vote. The congressional districts are gerrymandered to make seven demo- cratic and five republican,; and if the republicans carry the state and the two senatorial electors, the vote would be tie-Seyen to seven. Indiana gave 2S.0O0 democratic majority at her last state election in 1890, and h. dianapolis increased her democratic majority this year, and Connecticut hasn't given republican plurality for years Such are the states elasSed as doubtful by the Press. These, added to the states it comedies to the demo- crdts. would give the democratic can didate for president 2f0 electoral votes, or seventeen more than d majority.
 Now look at the doubtful states the Press puts in the republican column. Illinois twenty four votes are Obvi- ously doubtful: so are Iowa's thir- teen; so are Massachusetts fifteen and so are New Hampshire's four; while Rhode Islands four, Wiscon- sins twelve and Montanas 3 three are almost certain to be democratic. The democrats have carried Rhode Island at every election since enlarged suf- irage; they swept Wisconsin in 1890 by 36, 600, and they carried Montana " d decided majority.
 IL would be idle to say that the
 rcat battle oi loS2 is free from doubt as to the result, but there is no pro- cess of rational figuring at this time that can give the republicans ma j0rity of the electoral vote.

 In answer to the argument of Ed.

iittie tOCk bttnotiAt-
 In answer to the argument of Ed ward B-llamy that railroad and tele- graph tolls and all other distributors profits are taxes levied on the people tns same as the tariff taxes, the St. Louis Republic says:
 Mir. Bellamy fails to take in ac- count the right of bargain, the un- coerfed trade between buyer and seller. They can bargain until a compromise is reached Tlis is fair to each. The sell CTS profit may be the same percentage as tlle tarifT tax, but it is paid by con sent. There is no bayouet behind IT,. The seller or handler or distibutor in any way serves the consumer freely and is entitled 10 q reward for lis service. If he gets this reward as the right ot fair bargain, it is honest. If he gets II by fraud or force. whether of law or not. there is no fair bargain. but lhe one who is deprived ot his full right or bargain is frauded and robbed.
 An indirect tax differs from dis trbltor's profit in fair trade or from fair profit of any kind in that the tax has force behind it. When an Amer ican citizen imports a pound of wool or suit If clothes he must pay lHt Ilotlllk'll tftN UT utlU VII ltitHa 'T gardless of his property will be taken from him. If he ressts violently, he will be knocked down. and, besides being deprived of his liberty of person, will be deprived of his property.
 The profit of those who serve his con venience by trade With him never in wolves this where the right of bargain exists. He does not lose his own property If he declines to pay Il profit to d merchant or fee to a broker. He simply depives himself and the other party to the bargain of the ben eft If exchange. if no compromise cin be made between them. Fms is widely different from the compulsory payment of taxes lev3ed aga nit trade and to restrict freedom of bargain OH which all trade and all prosperity depends.
 The mutunl profit Of buyer and seller Is the life of trade. as taxation on trade is the death of it and of the profit attending it.
