THE WoRLD,s FAIR.

Democratic Platform: Section 16, Re-
cognizing the Worlds Columbian exposition
as national undertaking of vast importance
in which the general government has invited
the cooperation of all the powers Of the
world, and approaching the acceptance by
many of such powers of the invitation so ex-
tended. and the broad and liberal efforts
being made by them to contribute to the
grandeur of the undertaking. we are of the
opinion that congress should make such
necessary financial provisions as shall be re-
qulsfte to the maintenance OF the natl onal
honor and public faith
DR.. DANA, and possibly that Jealous
economist. your uncle HOLMAN, of In
diana. are the oaly Democrats of anv
consequence who are inclined to dis
pute the idea that the big fair is "a ma
tional undertaking of vast Importance
Not that the doctor is really Of any con-
sequence as a Democrat, but in other
respects he cuts some figure, and so. we
cite him along with the Great Director.
Whatever objections the latter may
have to voting aid to the worlds fair
are of an entirely impersonal and i'm
partial character. They are only part
of his general plan of action. He can
not be accused of discriminating in his
objections-they are too nearly uni
versal for that. He objects because
that is his idea of what he is there for,
and nine times out of ten it is a good
Idea When the tenth time ap-
pears he can always be persuad-
ed to recognize it, and to pull
his objection back; and therefore
the GLOBE feels sure that we can be
relied Oh to ultimately allow congress
TO make such necessary financial pro-
Visions" for the worlds fair as ''shall
be requisite to the maintenance of the
national honor and public faith"
And as for DR.. DANA, the other OBJ
Jector. his objection is merely his way
OF showing that he is much better
New Yorker than he is Democrat.
Because Chicago got the fair and New
York didn't. DR.. DANA has ever since
considered it his patriotic duty to knock
out the fair what time he was not en-
gagged i'll knocking out GROVER CLEvE-
LAND. He will succeed in the one at
tempt about as we'll as he has succeeded
IN the other. In fact. the friends of the
fair need not feel half the alarm at the
doctors hostility that they would be
justified in feeling if the fair were to
become the victim Of his approval.
And so. the two possible obstacles
having been disposed of, there remains
no reason why a vote for the Demo-
cratic candidates next November should
not be considered vote of encourage
ment for the worlds fair.

The election Of Abraham Lincoln in 1864

Cleveland and Stevenson. In the presence
of wrongs like these, in the face of villany

devlish greed that affiicts the republic like a

Workingmen Will Understand.

The managers of the Carnegie Steel works
at Homestead are determined to deal with
the strike there without reference to political
effect They declare that it is with them a
matter of business and not of politics; but
evidently with the politicians it is matter of
politics, and they are decidedly anxious to
have the matter patched up with the work
men. Mr.. Magee, of Pittsburg, however, pro-
fesses to think the trouble will have no politi-
cal effect because the tariff has really moth
ing to do with it. Perhaps the steel workers
themselves may understand it that way, but
workingmen in general will reason that
somehow or other the Mckinley bill has not
had the promised effect on wages in Western

An Effective Object Lesson.

Springfield (Mass.) News.
What commentary this whole affair offers
upon the alleged purpose of the high tariff
to protect American labor. The iron manu-
faetnrers are among its favorites, and Car
negie is one of the wealthiest men in Amer
lea, and one of the stanchest Republican ad-
voeates of high tariff. Now that it is made
clear that he and his associates have only
hate aud contempt for workingmen. and
count the year wasted that does not record
some cut iii wages or outrage on the rights of
labor, the whole humbug of the argument
that the high tariff is devised for the protec-
ton of labor is revealed. The object lesson
at Homestead will make more Democratic
votes among workingmen than whole tons Of
the Congressional Record.

The pathetic and appealing nature Of the
situation in Homestead, Pa, has bearing
upon this political campaign. Thousands OF
faithful American wor kingmen are there en-
gagged in a desperate struggle 20 maintain
decent rate for wages. They are opposed in
that struggle by one of the millionaire iron
kings, who is a leading champion OF the high

not burning, vital and vitaliztng Issue in

Monopoly's Profits.
Albany Argus.

Albany Argus.
-Four years ago Hon. William L. Scott in his
great speech on the tariff May 10, 1885, showed
from the books of the Carnegies the way in
which protectionism operates. OF total
cost at that time of S26.79 for ton of steel
rails the labor employed by the Carnegies re-
ceived only $500. while the profits of the
firm on each ton were SIS, and Andrew Car
negie himself confessed to Mr.. Scott that in
one year he had drawn 81 500. 600 as his share
of the profits from the Edgar Thompson
steel works, only one establishment out of
the many united last week in the Carnegie
trust. Organization secures labor's wages;
protective tariff secures monopoly's profits.

more than ample wages for every ironworker
between the Atlantic and the Pacific oceans,
and yet, in spite of this enormous contribu-

that they desire, business stagnates and lock-

of protection. By its fruits We shall know it.
