STADLER'S APPEAL.
criminals.

A dark and gloomy suspicion inhabits the
Tammany bosom that the lquor-dealers are in
clined to be backward in coming forward with
contributions for the cause. Accordingly ex-
Senator Stadler, robust and agile Toe OF
sumptuary legislation, has drawn up circular
beseeching all dispensers of the fiery to walk
right ND 10 the collectors office and settle.
They are informed that this is not a year for
meagre subscriptions. "The full extent of your
ability' is the measure set by Stadler, and the
neglect of the brewers associations to make
the usual necessary appropriations" is offered
in explanation of his Importantly. The ex-
Senator is not one of those cheap and easy
patriots who shrink from exertion in the defence
of their principles. He is willing to hire hack
at the expense of the Democratic Committee and
visit every barroom in town. II you think
that a personal interview would be more salts
factory" he writes, 81 will gladly see you at
any time you may appoint" faithful and in
dustrous man is Stader.
But when we come to the historical part OF
his appeal we find that it suggests line OF
thought which may not cause the hquor-dealerS
to yank out their check books with quite so much
fervor as he anticipates. 1t would be well
enough to remind them that several Republican
excise bills have failed to become laws only " in
consequence of the vigilance of the present
Democratic Executive" except for the fact that
they are thus reminded at the same time OF the
present Democratic Executives recent abject
failure to deliver the goods which they had con-
tracted and paid for in advance. The Governor
wasn't hampered in the least. After the Stad
Ter bill had come to grief they appointed David
b. Hill Committee of One with power to draft
an ideal measure and pick out an Assembly
man to introduce it. The Governor accepted
this delicate and responsible task without any
appearance of distrust or misgiving. His choice
fell upon Schaaff, Adam Schaaff, of Brooklyn,
presumably a good man for that or any other
anti-sumptuary function. But in one way or
another a great deal of valuable time had been
wasted, and the Schaaif bill passed the Assem-
bly, just too late for anything except peaceful
death in the Senate. The session was over and
nothing had been done.
If this had been a case of mere ordinary Re-
publican perversty Stadler's circular might still
have possessed power to warm the hearts of the
liquor-dealers toward Democracy in general and
David b. Hill in particular. But they have
been suspecting and to some extent complaining
ever since the Legislature adjourned that the
Governor, for reasons best known to himself
was willing TO leave them out in the cold. Not
few of them have even gone so far as to ac-
cuse him Of either treason or impotence, and it
is not going to be an easy task to inhame their
ardor up to the contribution point. We are
willing to wager a sphon of seltzer that if ex-
Senator Stadler inhicts a personal interview in
certain quarters he will wish he hadn't.
New-York tribune., 1891-10-17

later information from the same States tended
to confirm that impression, the official report
nevertheless gives satisfaction, because 1t indI-
Gates that the extent of loss has been less than
most persons have been inclined to suppose.
Judging from the yield of last year, which was
by far the largest in the history OF the country,
it may be inferred that the crop Of 1891, il not
quite 5000, 900 bales, will not fall far short
of that quantity, unless the official returns are
decidedly erroneous But with the unusually
large stocks carried over from previous years
September /, in this and in other countrleS
there would seem to be assured supply sufii-
cient for the needs of the civilized world for
the coming year.

GOVERNOR CAUPBELHS WAY.

Ohio did not hear the debate between Major
Mckinley and Governor Campbell, but most of
the intelligent voters of that State have by this
time read what the distinguished speakers said.
1t must have occurred to every one of them
that in lodging the silver issue which the Dem
ocratic platform had deliberately made, Gov
ernor Campbell placed himself at a great dis
advantage. 1t was a confession that he did not
dare openly to defend one of the chief purposes
avowed by the party which nominated him.
Elsewhere he had said that he would :" chance
IT," but business interests in Ohio are not will
ing to invite great peril so lightly. Apparently
the Governor concluded that even discredt
able silence would hurt him less than any at
tempt to defend or excuse the demand of the
convention. On this subject Major Mckinley
spoke with frankness and great force and it is
to be hoped that the farmers and workmen of
Ohio will appreciate the fact that Z" it takes just
as many blows Of the hammer as many strokes
of the pick, as much digging and as much reap
ing, to get a short dollar as it does to get o
full dollar"
But if the Governor palpably lodged the sill
YER question, it will also occur to many ntelli-
gent voters of Ohio that he did not honestly
meet the tariff question. His entire argument
was a fraudulent use of figures. For instance,
take the following
There were manufactured in this country last year
$500 900 900 worth of goods II the tariff on dut-
able goods is 90 per cent 1t is fair TO presume taking
protected and unprotected industries together that at
least onethIrd of that sum is paid In lieu OF duties to
the manufacturers at home upon the American product
The Governor must know that it is fraud
10 compare the rate of duties on dutiable i'm
ports with the value of all manufactured prod
ucts whether Of kinds that are dutiabe or of
kinds that bear no duty whatever. The rate
of duty on all imports is only % per cent for
ten months under the new tariff, and not 60
per cent. But again, the Governor resorted to
fraud in saying, "I II the tariff on dutiabe goods
is go per cent" for he knows that it is not. but
meant to have his hearers believe that it is
The value of dutiable imports in ten months
under the new tariff is 1867, 902 $40, and the
amount OF duties paid on them S167, 1896, 900,
so that the ratio is not 60 per cent, but about
As per cent. And finally, it was an impudent
fraud to assume, without an attempt TO prove
but in the teeth OF volumes of evidence proving
the contrary, that all American products are en-
haDced in cost by duties on imported products
Such multiplied untruths in one sentence, such
abuses of his station by the Governor of great
State, are sufficient to mark him as a man un-
worthy of public confidence
The speech is full OF similar misrepresenta-
tons. Thus it is asserted that the duty on
plate-g glass is 140 per cent, and last year we
imported $3.50, 600 worth of plate glass" Both
statements are false, for last year the value of
plate-glass imported was se17,36s 20, and the

TAMMANY,S INFAMOUS COLONIZAliON
ED4UDS

"The Herald' printed yesterday an article
which demands the immediate attention OF DIS
trct- Attorney Nicoll and Grand Jury. IL
supplies clear and convincing evidence that GER
tain prominent members of Tammany Hall are
engaged in an Infamous colonization scheme in
the With District. "The Herald's" story is
circumstantial and complete. lis reporters, hav-
ing heard of the colonization placed themselves
in a position to be approached by the Iammany
heelers," and were actually lodged at NO l3o
Macdougal-st., and from there directed by the
Tammany agents to register. They had as COM
panions eight other persons, each OF whom, with
themselves, was engaged by the Iammany
scopndrels to vote Tammany's ticket in return
for three weeks lodging in the Macdougai-st'
bouse and $40 in cash. The Tammany lead
er to whom the reporters expressed lear OF the
law promised them full protection against the
police and the courts, and other Tammany lead
ers who were also appealed to Endorsed the
original guarantee. The crime of these men
was actually completed by the registration OF
the eight persons domciled with the reporters
at No. 1870 Macdougalst. Not one OF them Is
a lawful voter
The District-Attorney, if he possessed
particle of the self-respect which was so valued
a part of his equipment before he surrendered
himself to the Tammany bosses, cannot ignore
this exposure. It is printed by an independent
newspaper, one which in this campaign has
not indicated which of the party tickets 1t In
clines to support. The article cannot be dis
missed then, as Republican campaign lie"
It must be Investigated, and the rascals it pulls
ont into the light must be brought to justice.
"The Herald's" statements, which we reprint
elsewhere and which should be placed before
every voter in the State, are important, not be-
cause they reveal new species of Tammany
infamy, but because they are so specific and
full of detail They fairly beg to be investi-
gated. They tell names. They give addresses
They leave the authorities no excuse for not
proceeding at once to arraign the scamps whom
they involve. The Macdougal-st house is, as
everybody knows, only an instance Tammany
victories are always won by this kind OF fraud.
The Wigwams opposition to the blanket ballot
rests wholly on the knowledge that Its employ
ment at elections will render colonization prac-
tically vaueless. Notorious as these frauds have
become, their detection is surrounded with great
difficulty and rarely has such proof OF them
been produced as was supplied yesterday by
"The Herald" We must warn De Lancey
Nicoll that his reputation as an honest man is
staked on the course he pursues with regard to
the arrest and conviction of these baiiot-box
criminals

DEMOCRATIC ENDORSEMENT OF FASsETT

The Democratic managers, in debating the
denomination of Senator Ahern in the Xth Dis
trict of this city, and of Assemblyman Dinkel-
spiel in the XIIth District, practically indorsed
the position which Senator Fassett took on the
Worlds Fair issue. For Ahern and Dinkelspiel
both voted as Fassett and his Republican asso-
cates voted on the Worlds Fair bill. The
record of the two houses proves that OF course,
considering the overwhelming importance which
our Democratic friends in the metropolis attach
or pretend TO attach to this Fair matter, it is
clear that Ahern and Dinkelspel would have
been dropped in case there was an impression
abroad in their districts that they had not made

creditable Fair record. That goes wi'hou'
saying. ..
OF course, Democratic journals and stump
sneakers can be counted upon to continue mis-
representing Senator Fassetts relation to the
Fair until the end OF the canvass for 'niS

say. is mostly false pretences. But actiohs
speak louder than words; the denomination OF
these two Democratic lawmakers confounds Mr.

II the rating of the circulation Of other daily
newspapers in the United States in the so-cailed
Directory" Of Lord q Thomas, OF Chlcago' Is
as inaccurate as that Of The Tribune in said pook'
the publication is utterly valueless to any business
man and unworthy of one moments serious con-
sideration. The rating of The Tribune In boru
4, Tbomas's DIRECTORY" for 1890 fell far short
of the truth; and, possibly because The Tribune
refused to advertise in the issue for 1901, the
rating is now reduced even below that for 1890
and below that of dailies which do not have half
the circulation of this paper. Possibly the mat
ter is of no consequence, but as Lord Thomas
are seeking certain position for their directory
and some advertisers might be misled by their
figures, we call attention to their inaccurate
rating of The Tribune In justice to ourselves,
the figures should have been more than doubled.

The regret caused by the refusal Of Senator
William H. Robertson to accept a denomination
is tempered by the nomination Of Assemblyman
Bradford Rhodes to succeed him. Mr.. Rhodes has
served several terms in the Assembly. He has
made good Assemblyman, and we are sure he
will make a good Senator Judge Robertson's
plurality the last time he 2,717. His
great personal popularity counted for much, of
course, but there is every reason TO believe that
Mr. Rhodes will keep the district in the Republi-
can column.
