STILL AFTER MURPHY.
Allegheny Reformers Claim They Will Not
Use Whitewash.

Use W hitewaSh.
The Allegheny Auditing Committee and
Reformers deny indignantly that the action
with reference to Chief Murphy was not a
whitewash. In speaking OF the
course pursued. Mr.. Henricks would
say simply, 1--WE did not have the
documentary evidence, as in Mayor
Wyman's case. Perhaps evidence can be
secured from some other source The
other source, it was stated by reformers, is
the Reform Association. The plan pro-
posed is to get affidavits to substantiate the
charge that Chief Murphy accepted tribute
from gamblers and houses of i'll fame and
present them to City Solicitor Elphinstone.
Some of the affidavits, it IS claimed, are
already in hand.
While it is acknowledged that the City
Solicitor will probably report that there are
no grounds for proceedings on the charge
that money received for vehicle licenses was
not turned into the city, it is claimed that
the other accusations Will be so startling
that they cannot he ignored. 1t is also said
that Mr.. Elphinstone is disposed to push
all the cases TO the point where there can
be no doubt as to the guilt or innocence of
the accused men.

THE Democrats in control of the
New Jersey Legislature seem to have
concluded to do a little gerrymander.
ing, just to be in harmony with the
Democratic Legislatures elsewhere,
II is proposed to.so district the State
that the Republicans shall not be liable
TO elect more than two Of the seven
Congressman. That is all that were
elected last Fall, but ordinarily the
delegation has been pretty fairly divi.
ded. But there is to be no more
chance of that under the proposed
Democratic gerrymander. Those sen.
sitive aud fair minded Democratic pa.
pers which are so terribly shocked by
the way in which Republican Legisla.
lures make Congressional districts will
have no time to take any notice of the
progress of Democratic events 10 New

ought to be getting some valuable les
sons from these Democratic bodies.

WI desire TO specially call the at
tentiou of our Democratic free trade
friends to a few solid facts, which like
all other facts present the only con.
vincing argument known to poor weak
doubling human nature; When the
Mckinley bill was pending, and in
deed after it had become a law, you
insisted that it was absurd to put a
tariff 90 linen, because this country
could not build and successfully ope.
rate linen mills. The tariff was put
on linen, and the result is, hat three
linen mills are already in operation in
the New England States, while others
are being built aud equipped as rapid.
ly as possible at Minneapolis, MINI. I;
at Eau Claire, Wis, and at Sioux
Falls, South Dakota. So much for
one free trade prediction. Now, for
another. All during the last campaign
the ~workingmen were told by Demo.
cratic editors and orators that the
tariff on tin plates put a tax upon bis
dipper and dinner bucket, notwith.
standing they knew, or should have
known, that the tin plate section of the
Mckinley bill would not become q
law until July 1, 1891. Now for the
effect of that law upon American in
dustries. Before its enactment not q
pound of tin plate was made in the
United States, now American Mill:
are turning it out by the ton and more
than a dozen large mills are in process
of erection in various sections of the
country, and the tin mines 10 this
country are being for the first time

to-day, in Chicago and New York
twenty per cent. less than it wal las

that it will be still cheaper after thu
new mills get to work. This ism

statement of hard, solid facts, which
can be fully proven.

How many people know that the
present silver law is practically free
coinage of all silver produced by
American mines, that is to say, that
the 100000 ounces of silver bullion
which the Treasury Department is
compelled by law to buy each month
is more than the average amount pro.
duced by all of the American mines
That shows how unfriendly the Re.
publican party is to silver, doesn't it?
