The Outlook in Town.

Iowa Republicans appreciate the
gravity of the conflict in their State, and
yet they play again directly into the
hands of the Democrats party. The
prohibition of the liquor traffic has lost
to the Republican party in Iowa much
GIFTS normal strength without wiping
out tho liquor traffic.
The Prohibitionists, without waiting
to see what the Republican convention
would do, have nominated State ticket.
They are as distinct party as the Dem
ocratic. Yet the Republican conven-
ton endorses their chief issue and says
again to Republicans who do not ap-
prove of the prohibitory policy that un-
less they wish to endorse it they must
again vote the Democratic ticket.
The outlook in Iowa for the Republi-
can party this year'is not encouraging.

complaining vi SbuNASb AhbbAs
Proprietors and operatives in the
great shirt and collar industry in and
about Troy complain bitterly of tho de-
structive competition of convict labor.
They say that they simply cannot live
against the enormous prison output
produced by the most improved ma
chinery at the rate Of $50 dozen shirts
day.
The operatives are even more con-
cerned than the employers, and they
sent a representative to Governor Hill
to beg that no more shirts be made
than the law requires, until the matter
can be dealt with more radically. The
governor is said to have met the COM
plant with politicians "bluff:"
The demand OF these men and women
for chance to live at their trade is not
unreasonable. Convicts should not be
kept in idleness, but it is possible to
employ them without destroying free
labor. Nothing better than working
them on the public roads has ever been
suggested.

Men engaged in the business, and who
may be supposed to know what they are
talking about, say that all the tin plate
that was rushed in to escape the new
duty does not amount to more than q
two months supply, SO great is our con-
sumption Of this useful article. This is
encouraging. Notwithstanding the fact
that every pound Of foreign tin plate in
the country stands in the way Of mar
keting its equivalent in American tin
plate.
Nor are veto suppose that the British
effort to control the American market
will stop with these June cargoes. Men
who have good thing do not give it up
SO easily. This much is certain, that as
soon as we begin to turn out tin plate
in considerable quantities the British
manufacturer who desires to sell in this
market will have to pay the duty before
he can come in, and this he will never
get back unless he can crush the home
industry. In that event he would re-
coup himself with vengeance out Of
the pockets of American consumers.
There is an impressive feature of this
tin plate question which operates on the
side OF the British manufacturer. This
isthe lack of certainty with regard to
the permanency Of the protective duty.
A hostile Congress, if there be such a
one, might undo the whole business,
practically wiping out the whole invest
ment in the industry. Manufacturers
are going ahead in spite of this appre-
hension, relying on the people to sup
port their effort to add another and inn
portant home industry. Others are not
going ahead because they think the
risk too great.
1t may be observed that nobody is
afraid that the Republican party will
knock in the head this or any other
American industry.

Chairman Briee, OF the Democratic Com
Initteo, stirring up the clubs-UrginS Inn
mediate Action.
New YoRx, July 1.-senator Calvin
s. Brice, chairman OF the national
democratic committee, has written a
letter Of warning and advice to his tel
low members of the national committee
The letter enbodics advice in regard to
the association Of Democratic clubs and
the necessity OF the national committee
cooperating with them. Senator brlce
begins with the statement that tne
presidential contest is near at hand !;
that the Republicans are rapidly pre-
pairing for it. and that the Democrats
cannot be too circumspect or too swirl
in arranging to meet them. The plan
OF campaign of the Republicans, ne
saws, is q colossal system OF clubs 70 pc
maintained and supported by nnllml !s
means drawn from the pockets OF tne
benetlciaries OF the monopoly ,pollcy.
This system he urges can only be met
by an equally extensive system Of VOL,
untary Democratic clubs-that is, an
association of people in their several
neiphborhoods for the defence OF their
rigIts and interest against those who
are banded to assail them. Mr.. Brice
saws the, truly Democratic club has
been the friend OF liberty. The ten
dency at this time Of the people OF the
United States, to enroll themselves to-
gether in neighborhood organizations
OF this character, is ono OF the signs OF
the political perils which confront
He thinks that the approaching strug,,
gle is to one mainly between clubs. ana
Il is greatly to be desired that q uniform
and perfected system of Democratic
societies thoroughly organized and IN
intimate association with each other
shall be established before the beginning
OF next year.
Mr.. Brice says he has examined the
plan OF organization now in process OF
Successful accomplishment by the
national association OF Democratic clubs,
and he feels it the duty OF every mem
Der OF the national executive committee
to give the club association his most
hearty support, and he urges each mem
Der Of the national committee to CO.
operate with the association to the
fullest extent.
Mr.. Brice concludes as follows:
IAN important feature of the plan is
the selection of correspondents in the
several States. This now requires
urgent attention in your State. Iwould,
therefore, ask you to confer with the
chairman OF your State committee as
soon as may be convenient and arrange
this part OF the plan; also that you will
do all in your power to facilitate the
organization in other ways you may
think best"

Mr.. Flower as an Orator.
washington Post, independently

Roswell p. Flower is a plain-spoken man
who ordinarily confines himself in his
sneeches to cold matters of fact, as busi-
ness-men generally do who have made
their own way up III the world. ms Is MS
STYLE of exhortation-simple, direct, and
forceful: Il want TO say 10 you. 40 your
duty. See that there is no shrinking; that
all your voters are registered; that a full
vote is polled." Nothing could be more TO
the purpose. -.
1t is but rarely that Mr.. Flower dallies
with the flowers of rhetoric. but always IN
vivid and picturesque way, as when he
saws: ION the night of the Sd OF Novem-
Der next | am confident that the light OF
the opposition will go out in darkness"
Still more rarely does he revert to an
tiouity to accentuate and emphasize his
points. but the Graco-Roman style In
which he wrestles with the classics shows
that he is not only familiar with ancient
history, but apt in its adaptation 10 the
present political situation in New York.
What could be more appropriate by way or
suggestion to the Democracy OF the En-
pire State than this: when the Greeks
were threatened with outside foes they
dropped their own differences and went
out to fight a common enemy"
But whether Mr.. Flower be an orator or
not he il everywhere received with respect
as q rich man who has achieved his own
fortune and good citizen of honorable
repute should be. IL is not necessary
that man should be an Edmund Burke.
or Daniel Webster. or q Demonstrators.
in order to be elected Governor OF New
York and as between Fassett and Flower
the oratorical hopors are about easy,
thoueh MIR. Fassett Is the more fluent and
prodigal of speech. As to their chances,
we shall know more carly in November.
But as Mr.. Flower suggests the Democracy
must keep steadily in view the example OF
the Greeks if they hope to get anywhere
near the winning post.

Tho Ohio SANDER.
New York World.

II is to the credit of Ohio Republicans
that many of them express good deal OF
disgust with the attempts made to COM
pass Governor Campbells defeat by ma
iigning his character and publishing lies
about him.
The Mckinley canvass being in an appa-
rently desperate strait certain lli-adylsed
persons have for some weeks been trying
TO make 1t appear that Governor Campbell
is bankrupt III business. Al least some or
them have had resort to tactics similar TO
Foraker's when he put forth the ballot-box
forgerIes two years ago. They have se-
cured the publication OF signed state
ment purpOrtin. to show that Governor
Campbell has been dishonest IN his busl-
ness relations with the writer OF the screed.
This was published III New York news
paper and then copied in the Cincinnati
Toaperciai- Gduae-the same that gave
publicity 10 the ballot-box forgerles.
At this point Governor Campbell has
taken the sanderers by the throat. He
never had any business relations with o
person bearing the name signed to the
SANDER. He never knew any such person
or heard of him. and there Is every reason
to believe that there is no such person IN
existence.
Accordingly Governor Campbell has de-
manded instant retractious all round upon
pain of immediate prosecutions, and the
New York newspaper which was the origi-
nal offender yesterday published his de-
mand and denial without an attempt TO
excuse its wrong doing or to produce
the alleged author of the slanderous docu-
ment
But the matter ought not to end here.
Every honorable man IN Ohio owes 1t to
his self.respect TO rebuke with his vote
this second attempt to ruin public
man in his private reputation and IN
his business for the sake OF defeating
him at the polls. The miscreants who
resort to such devices can be chastised
ont of politics only by defeat SO over
whelming that its significance cannot be
mistaken.
