A Ringing Indictment


In recent interview Captain NJ n.
Munson, Democratic member. of the
last Legislature, from Licking county.
has this TO say regarding Governor Camp
bell and the late Democratic Legislature:
Governor Campbell has shown himself
to be reckless tinancier. and the record
of the last Legislature has been IN keep
ing with his Oh iracteristics. Governor
Campbell in this cam oaign can not point
with truthfulness to any creditable act
OF The last Legislature. The measures
1t enacted. when not downright outrGges

never Wis more extravagant General
Assem- ly in the history of this State.
Then. 700, it utterly failed to respond to
the dc IN lnds made by the agricultural
element 1t is true that fee and salary
bill was enacted TO answer the CRYING
need of reform of the rem1nerations of
county officials. The law enacted,

of no benefit whatever. The m aasure
was fixed up to suit rybody. that is
every Dem )cratic member of the Legis-
lature, and consequently it does not pro-
vice for uniform system of official sal
aries. Deception is practiced in nearly
every section Of the bill. 1t Is nothing

The Ohio Democrats are now begin
ming to get very red in the face. And
not without cause. Major Mckinley is
telling the Ohio farmers all about sugar.
The Democracy can't very well get
around that question. They can lie to
the farmers from morning until night,
on the stump and off, about tin plate and
wool, but when it comes to the question
of sugar they preserve a praiseworthy
and judicious silence. The Ohio farmer
knows all about sugar. He can enlight-
en- the Democracy with the information
that he can buy twenty-five pounds of
sugar for 81 this year. Last year the
twenty five pounds cost him exactly So;
and he can further enlighten them with
the fact that the Mills bill-passed by a
Democratic House of Representatives
and killed by Republican Senate-kept
the price of the twenty-five pounds at
s., and it was the man who now asks his
suffrage who reduced the twenty five
podnds to 81. Will the Ohio farmer
vote to put it back to 81? Not this CEN
tury

having written Mr.. Blaine that the Dem
ocratic papers were parading him as an
opponent of the Mckinley bill, he replies
as follows:
AUGUSTA, Me-, October, 1891.
John Hopley, Esq, Editor of the Journal,
Bucyrus, o.:
Ny Dear Sir-You inform me that the
Democratic paper in your town, and many
Democratic papers throughout Ohio, keep
the following paragraph standing i'll type:
But there is not a section or line in the
entire bill mckinley tariff that will open
market for another buShel of wheat or
another barrel of pork. G. Blaine to
Senator Frye, July II, 1890.
This sentence is garbled and taken from
its proper connection. 1t creates wrong
impression. What did say was the fol-
lowing: Il do not doubt that in many re-
spects the tariff bill pending in the Senate
is Just measure, and that most of its
provisions are in accordance with the wise
policy of protection, but there is not sec
ton or a line in the entire bill that will
open market for another bushel of wheat
or another pound of pork"
The letter in which this paragraph oc-
Cured was written to Senator Frye on
July IL, 1890, aud the Mckinley bill did not
become law until October 8, nearly three
months thereafter. In my letter to Sena-
tor Frye objected to the bill because it
did not contain a reciprocity clause, which
would provide market for wheat and pork
and other products of the farm, and for va
rious fabrics.
Before the bill was finally passed the rec
iprocity clause was inserted ard alarge ad
dition was made to the free list. 1t will,
I = L 7 4
letter that the objection which | made to
the Mckinley bill was entirely removed
before the bin became a law.
Let me further say that the reciprocity
clause has given ample market for many
barrels of flour and many pounds Of pork.
Brazil, some months since, entered into a
treaty by which many American articles
are admitted free. Flour is made free, and
pork is admitted at a nominal duty.
Cuba and Porto Rico have reduced the
duty on flour from So 80 a barrel to 81, which
gives US the market, besides putting nearly
one hundred articles of American produc-
tion on the free list.
San Domingo has made n reciprocity
treaty, with flour and pork upon the free
! list, besides large number of other arti-
cles. Other treaties for reciprocity are in
progress.
Germany, without negotiating formal
treaty, has removed the prohibition on
pork, and our Government, in considera
tion thereof, has lett her sugar on the free
| list. This opens to us an entirely new
market, and Sl5,OOO,0OO to $4,000, 900 of
American pork will be consumed per an
mum where not pound has been taken for
! ten years.
The reciprocity provision is proving very
successful, especially in farm products,
and more particularly in the case of the two
articles mentioned in the paragraph
quoted-hour and pork.
/ am not, therefore, an opponent of the
Mckinley bill as the Democratic papers OF
Ohio are constantly alleging. On the con
trary, have cordially supported it ever
since it was perfected by the insertion of
/ the reciprocity clause. Very respectfully
YOURS. JAMES q. BLAINE
