PROT rgorloN NPRAorIoALLy PERPE
TRATED.

A highly protected patriot of the 9. o.
D., named Is. +. Jones of Pittsburg, was
one of the largest contributors to the
bribery fund tnat enabled the Republi-
cans TO beat Campbell for Governor of
Ohio. Mr. Jones is member of a 81
gantic trust that robs the general pub
lie for his own benefit, and when NC
Kinley framed his tariff bill, the steel
trust of which Mr.. Jones is leading
member, was we'll taken care of with
about 120 per cent protection. just as
sooD as the electior was over Mr.. Jones
declared reduction OF 10 per cent in
the wages of his employees. Mr.. Jones
makes structural iron and steel.
The Mckinley duty under which the
trust operates is $50 IL per tOn--or
about 20 per cent-aud in addition there
is natural protection for the Ameri-
can manufacturers of not less than 10
per cent The price of beams in this
country is S7Oper ton In England and
Belgium the selling price is from S2i to
S23. All told the protection amounts
to about l2O per cent and tho trust
takes "all the traffic will bear"
Mr.. Jones is enormously rich, and Nc
Kinley has made him richer. Hence he
ought to have been satisfied to lot his
gift to Mckinley go for gratitude, but
now he proposes 70 get it all back, by
cutting down the wages Of his faithful
labOrers.
Great is Protection.

The Washington Chronicle is out for
our Major Mckinley for President.
The Chronicle is a Sunday paper edited
by John @. Thompson, devoted to poll
tics and society, with a boiler plate
inside. 1t closes its appeal for McKin-
icy as fOllOws:--
"Mr. Blaine, though masterful en-
tity In our affairs, shares to degree the
shelving of the Harrison Admlnistra-
tiou; aud his reputed precarlous health,
and disgrunted attitude toward the
Mckinley tariff bill, aud possible jeal.
Ousiy, as stated, of the rising of the
OHIO man, practically eliminates him
also from the 1882 race. Mckinley Is
of the younger body OF statesmen. His
career is not moLJled wltn personal
charges; his "record" is not dangerous
with political or personal pitfalls; he is
not known or feared or loved IN any
Republican party factions. In this
particular Mckinney is more available
than any named candidate tor Presl-
dent. William Mckinney is the coming
man. He Is popular, has nerve, Is suf-
lCiently magnetic, has no bOa5ted blue
blood ia his veins, is thorough man
OF The people, IL touch with their
Interests and sympathies, aud would HI
the Presidential office with distinguish
ed ability"

DAVID A. WELLS in following up the
increased manufacture of shoddy in the
United States, since the shoddy Nc
Kinley bill went into effect, says that
Ohio has "the largest shoddy mill, per
haps, in the world that he himself was
recently in mill that was using six
teen Thousand pounds OF shoddy daily,
running into fabrics without the slight
est cleansing material which almost
turned ones stomach to look at from
close quarters" "The claim therefore"
says Mr.. Wells, referring to the fact
while we import less shoddy, we make
more, under the Mckinley law, by
which old rags from Germany, France,
and Italy are brought over under so
low duty, as to constitute free, raw
material, "set up that the Mckinley
tariff is entitled TO credit for antagon.
izing and preventing the import of
foreign shoddy is substantially fraudu-
lent, for all that was done was simply
to change the form in which shoddy
may be Imported"

WE are pleased to observe that the
Cleveland Plain Dealer joins the NEWS
DEMOCRAT in advocating the nomina-
tion of Mckinley for President. In a
well considered editorial the Plain
Dealer says
The logic of the Republican situa-
tion makes Mckinley not merely o pres.
idential possibility but the legitimate
nominee of the party. 1t would be rank
injustice to rob Mckinley of the fruits
OF his victory, push him from his own
platform and set up Blaine who smash
ed his hat upon it, Harrison who look
ed suspiciously upon it, or Sherman
who severely criticised it-after cleo
tion. The Republican nominee next
year must be Mckinley and the plat
form McKinleyism if the party would
be consistent.

he had suffered a knockout. lie was
bright and cheerful and all the pangs,
If he ever had any, had disappeared.
You can't keep the Governor down,
and the country will hear from him in
the future. He is yet sure to occupy a
high place in the nation. But | must
say that never saw man recover
from the effects of disaster so quickly"
Before the election Mr.. Campbell said
If he was beaten for Governor he knew
there was nothing further in store for
him. On the contrary the luke-warm
support offered him by Virgin I, Kline,
Martin FOran and Tom Johnson Of
Cleveland and Neal, Remelin and the
rest, and the jealousy of the leading
Presidential candidates, has earned for
him the sympathy of the people at
large. Many Democrats think that
Campbell is stronger than he ever was.
George A. jerks predicts that he will
some day occupy a Cabinet position.

Tom REED declares for Mckinley in
1892. Anything to beat Toms friend
Blaine OF Maine.-Zanesvill Signal.
Tom Reed is fast friend of our
Mckinley, bat Mckinley will never
lean on a broken Reed. He relies upon
men like Carnegie, Quay and Jay
Gould. Reed, however, has been Of
great service to Mckinley in the line
OF valuable suggestions. 1t was Reed
who first practiced boodling the farm
ers of Maine, by employing Doodle
agents in the townships. This plan
was worked thoroughly all over Ohio In
the last campaign lu Stark county
alone some $1,000 was invested in the
purchase of certain men in the move
ment for free silver, an income tax
and the more general recognition of
farmers.s One man is said to have real
lied $3.50 at one sitting.

MCKINLEY would not accept the po-
sition of Vice President He prefers
to be Governor of Ohio. In this he
shows political sagacity. AS Governor
OF Ohio he stands almost solitary and
alone, as the only Republican Cover
nor of a safe Republican State. Penn
sylvania, Michigan, Wisconsin and
Iowa are all otlicered with Democratic
Governors. Indiana and Illinois have
both put themselves in the Democratic
column since the Mckinley tariff was
enacted, and 1t would be a mistake for
Mckinley to risk his fame and fortune
on ticket with jim Blaine or Ben Har
rison, that is sure to go down in gloom
and disaster in 1892.

GoVERNoR CAMPBELL had to inject a
lttle politics into his THANKSGIVING day

clally as to DILL Massillon Independent,

treasury, is also doing well, and Foster

thaG he put into the pool to purchase
ONO for Mckinley and mOnopoIy. But
there are other items and interests out
side of oil. In fact the business situa-
ton is not satisfactory. Money is too
tight, and interest is too high, and out
SIDE of the trusts, our manufacturers
are not doing nearly as we'll as before the
Mckinley bill passed. Every business
man know that business now Is not so
satisfactory as before the Mckinley bill
passed, and all the natural conditions
are more favorable, We have an i'm
mense crop and large foreign demand.
We ought to be in the midst of big
business boom, but instead of that we
have had more business failures since
the Mckinley bill passed and more
labor reductions than for any other
equal period since the government was
organized.

CHAIRMAN HAHN, of the Ohio Re
publican State committee, who has all
along been for Foraker for the senate,
now says he is for Sherman. 1t is not
hard to reason this out. Hahn wants
to be insurance commissioner, an Office
which Major Mckinley will all when he
becomes governor. Major Mckinley is
for Sherman; therefore it beh0oves
Hahn to flop. Foraker men will have
mighty little show in the Mckinley con-
duct of affairs Il Pittsburg Post.

COUPLED with the account of the
magnificent presents sent from each
Russian province to the Emperor on
the anniversary of his wedding, is the
news that SO per cent of the population
in the famine stricken regions are in
the most extreme and pitifIl want and
that whole villages of adults and chill
dren, staying themselves with the dead
ly vodka, have been drunk at once.
With the same news comes the account
of the wholesale exile of noblemen and
students who dared to stand for repre-
sentative government. "The mills of
the Gods grind slowly but they grind
exceeding small"

A prscouRAaIMa TABLE.

The Toledo Blade, which is always
buOyant with hope and promise, is only
able to figure out 2l1 electoral votes for
the g. o. y. in 1892. There are 444 votes
III the electoral college, and it takes 223
to elect the President. This is an
awfully discouraging exhibit. And yet
the Blade, in order to show up 2l1 votes,
puts in Iowa with 13 votes, MassaChu-
setts with 10 votes and Montana with 3
votes. An three of these states are rea-
sonably sure for the Democrats. The
Blade puts New York in the doubtful
column. And yet New York has just
declared for Democracy by $1,000, over
twice the Republican majority in Ohio,
and Indiana went, last year, by 1853
The Blade also puts Illinois in the Re-
publican column, with "a votes. Last
year Illinois went Democratic on state
treasurer by 9,S47, and Iilinoisis reason
ably sure for Cleveland in 1892. The
Blade also puts Wisconsin into the Re
publican column, with IL votes. Last
year Wisconsin went Democratic on
Governor by 28,320
Republican journals would do well
not to print any electoral tables.
They are all full of gloom for the

Grover Cleveland, with the same Ma.
