The Logic of the Situation

It is of the essence of the theory
of protection that the free exchange
of the products of labor should be
restricted in order that those who
have procured the restrictions may
dispose of their products at en-
HANGED prices. To accomplish this
end they resort to the very means
which they condemn when resorted
to by laborers, viz, compulsion.
They endeavor to deprive those who
employ their capital in certain d.
rections of the opportunity to use
it as they choose, just as the Home
stead laborers endeavored to regulate
their employers use Of their own
property. They endeavOr to pre-
vent laborers from selling their
labor in free market for the best
price that it will bring, just as the
trade-unionists endeavor to prevent
non-union laborers from working
at trades which the unionists wish
to monopolize. IL it is justifable
for an American manufacturer to
compel the farmer who sells his
wheat in Liverpool to pay tax
upon the clothing or tools that he
receives in exchange, or else pay q
higher price for the protected arti-
cles, it is justiiable for the Home
stead workmen to compel their en-
ployers to pay them higher wages
or else allow their works to lie idle.
If it is right for American manu-
featured to force their fellow-citi-
zens to buy their wares through the
means of a protective tariff, it cam
not be wrong for American laborers
to force the manufacturers to buy
their services by excluding fellow
laborers from the competition

What Tariff Reform Means.

Tariff reform means cheap clothes
and good clothes in place Of the
high-priced shoddy which McKin-
ley's tariff on wooden goods CON-
pels three-fourths of the people to
wear; and in this way it means
less pneumonia and consumption.
Tariff reform means the end of all
this cant and hypocrisy about the
owners of protected manufacturing
concerns sharing the profits of pro-
lection with their workingmen.
Il means that the American farmer
shall buy American agricultural
machinery as cheap as foreigners
can buy the same article. II means
overthrow Of the trusts and COM
binations that conspire to make the

How is it any Better?

The advocates of McKinleyism
may say that it is all the fault of
the workingmen; that they ought
to be contented and happy and
show an appreciation of their bles-
sings; that they ought not to strike
against reduction of wages or fret
because the protected leaders of
Republicanism prefer to hire cheap
convict labor.
But we are confronted with a
condition, not a theory" And if
the present condition is that of the
Mckinley paradise, how is it any
better than the worst predictions
Of what would follow "free tradep'

Hon. Allen B. Morse.

Fitted by nature and training fol-
positions of grave responsibility
loved by the people, popular with
the masses, respected and honored
by all, Allen b. Morse heads the
ticket which will win in the APP
preaching election in this state
Grand Rapids Democrat.
Judge Morse is strong with all
classes and everywhere. His hon.
esty and ability secure him the
respect and confidence of the bench
and the bar as well as the toilers
His qualities commend to the
socially polished as well as to those
of limited means and humble homes
to whom an honest administration
of the law is most important.-lonii
Daily Standard (Ind.)
No stronger man could be PLACED
at the head of the state ticket. Ii
his nomination and acceptance
there is the assurance of victory
for the Michigan Democracy il
November. The soldier, who's
empty sleeve is the badge of devo
ton and the evidence of bravery
the jurist whose fame is as wide a
this country, the citizen, who i
loved, honored and respected il
every corner of the state, will lea'
the Democratic hosts to victory

A Republican Expression.

With Judge Morse at the head
of the Democratic state ticket il
would be worse than folly to deny
that the party has chosen strong
candidate. It is better to acknow-
ledge facts and face conditions
than to underrate the pow er of an
adversary and take chances Of los
ing the battle through over conf
dence and lack of work. In Judge
Morse the Democrats possess the
very strongest candidate for Gov
ernor they could possibly have nom
mated. He will poll at least 10000
more votes than Winans could have
secured with the most energetic
campaign conducted in the latter's
behalf. With Winans on the
ticket it would have been an easy
victory for the Republicans, but
with Morse the situation is entirely
different. There are 10000 soldier
votes in Michigan, three-quarters Of
whom, under ordinary conditions
belong to the Republican party
But Allen B. Morse is beloved
comrade of these men and as they
are accustomed to say, friendship
formed between men while standing
shoulder to shoulder on the field Of
battle is of most enduring kind.

The Review of Reviews for September
Is so edited as to remind its readers that
there are, even In presidential year,
many other tropics besides politics that
claim share in the general attention.
The September number has for its frontis-
piece spirited full-length portrait of the
great French scientist, Camille Flammar-
Ion standing by the side of his telescope
In the observatory at Juvisy; and the
Progress of the World"-that is, the
editorial opening department Of the Re-
view-begins with a discussion of Mars
and Its inhabitancy, illustrated with CHA
parelli's map OF the surface Of Mars, and
portraits of Professor Holden, of the Lick
Observatory, and Francis Gallon, chair
man OF the royal observatory at Kew,
London. Flammarion is not only great
astronomical authority, who makes bold
| predictions as to our future intercourse
| with the inhabitants of Mars, but he is

The Robber Tariff.

Steel rails are estimated by ex-
perts to cost in production at the
Carnegie mills about $22 per ton
including the value of raw material
The price received by the manu-
facturers is $50 ton. The enor-
nous profit which is thus made is
rendered possible by the absolute ex-
clusion of imported steel rails from
our market. The duty is ST. ton
These facts afford excellent food for
reflection on the part Of those who,
without understanding it, profess to
believe in the robber ariff.-New
Haven News.

necessities of life artifcially dear.
1t means, among other things, the
disruption of the Irvine Trust,
which has been tins summer ex-
torting from the wheatgrowers two
cents pound more for harvesting
Irvine than it ought to cost.
For farmers everywhere in the
United States tariff reform means
reduction of at least 25 per cent
on what they have to buy without
in any way diminishing the prices
of what they raise for sale. For
workingmen it means similar
reduction in the cost of living with
no reduction in their earnings, for
the Homestead lockout and scores
of strikes and lockouts elsewhere in
the past two years prove that the
more the tariff is raised the more
wages go down.

The State election of Vermont
took place yesterday. The Repub-

forts to have a large majority. The
State has always been Republican
by large maiorities, and the only
question that interests outsiders is
the size of the majority. The Re-
publican majority in past years
ranged from $4,000 to 10000.

that duty for his country thirty years

when the war was over he returned

country he risked his life to save.

The Field of Gettyshurg

Is to the old soldier and the student the
most interesting of all the earth's battle
grounds. Those who go to Washington
to attend the encampment Of the G. A. X.
In September, will have the best oppor-
tunity OF visiting Gettysburg by taking
the line Of the Michigan Central and the
Northern Central, which includes side
trip to Gettysburg either going or return
ing. For those who wish to return by
way of Philadelphia, all return tickets
will be honored either via the short line
or via Philadelphia, allowing stop-over at
Baltimore, Philadelphia and Harrisburg.
The stop at Philadelphia will permit of a
side trip to New York and return at the
low rate Of $500.
During the summer season the Michi-
gan Central gives the privilege of stop
ping over at Niagara Falls at any time
within the life of the ticket returning,
upon depositing 1t with the ticket Agent
there, affording valuable opportunity to
see the beauties of the great cataract and
vicinity at leisure.
Tickets are also sold to Washington
via Toledo and the lines south and east
therefrom.
The Michigan Central is the shortest
route, the best route, and offers induce
ments that no other line can give. For
any additional information apply to near
