Mr.. HARRIs0N's letter of accept
anee has at last made its appearance,
and, as a literary effort and contri-
button to campaign literature it is a
success, but for a truthful account Of
the workings Of the Mckinley law,
and statement of his own personal
position and opionions relating to the
Republican platform, it is an ignomin-
Gus failure. His efforts to conciliate
Blaine by praising his pet reciprocity
scheme when but short time since he
so bitterly opposed it, and the willy
manner in which he lodges the "Force
Plank I" of the Republican platform
are too transparent to escape the
notice of any person who possesses the
patience to read the voluminous
!" letter." The whole is a cunningly
devised essay on the blessings that pro-
lection and the Mckinley law have
conferred, but Harrison made a big
slip when he claimed that tariff de-
creases the cost of the home product
to the consumer and then declares
that the clause of the Mckinley law
abolishing the duty on sugar has been
the cause Of the decline in price of t hat
While this is the most
conspicuous OF the incongruities there
are many more which we shall take
occasion to expose in the future.

1T is peculiar and noteworthy fact
that a very large majority of the
English, Welsh, Scotch and other
clannish and royalist loving immi-
grants espouse the cause Of the Re-
publican and Autocratic party, the
party which favors the Capitalization
Of power, the serfdom of the masses to
professional politicians and CON-
tributors to a corruption fund who in
return are subsidized by the provisions
of the Mckinley law. On the other
hand, those immigrants Of Irish, Ger
man, French and Scandinavian de-
scent, and all others who believe in
free, untrammelled and popular gov
eminent In favor of the majority Of
the people instead of a few tariff-fed
monopolists and spoils hunters, as
surely grayitate into the ranks of the
Democratic party as water finds its
level. In it the immigrant that is
seeking q home and an asylum from
persecution finds his only hope of a

modern civilization that such exhibi-

is nothing in them that is moral or

Of all good citizens, but the exhibition

18th, for the purpose of forming q

clubs organized the Democratic voters
are requested TO send delegates to the
convention to act with the delegates
from those clubs which have organized.
The Importance OF this call cannot be
oyer-estimated as it is in the interest
OF perfect organization, earnest work

The Republican party is doomed
and its disruption is near at hand. The
issue upon which it came into exist.
ence has died out and despite every
effort Of its bounty-fed followers it is
gradually but surely dis-integrating.
This is evidenced by the desperate
efforts to retain the present party in
power, and to make that power abso-
lutte and permanent through the
medium of pernicious legislation, SUBJ
sidization of the press and the catering
to the demands of the men who control
the operation OF the party machines
in all sections of the country. With
the defeat Of the Republican party at
the polls in November the death-knell
of Republicanism, which is synonym
for fraud, corruption, favoritism and
monopoly, will be sounded, and at Nle
same time will be heard the glad shouts
of a united people hsralding the birth
of political and social freedom from
persecution and tyranny; from the
impending danger of the passage of
Force bill, which means nothing less
than disfranchisement to thousands of
good, true, loyal and patriotic citizens.
The Democratic party is the con-
servative party, the party that stands
as safeguard to the constitution
whose principles it has defended
against all comers since its birth, and
as such, has seen party after party rise
and fall, and will continue to do so
until the constitution itself is no more.
1t is the constitutional party mas
much as its principles are the under
lying principles of the constition,
while every opposing party has been
born cf an issue, lived on that issue
and succumbed at the death of that
issue.
The Republican party is essentially
a war party, having been called into
being by the inevitable approach of the |
Civil War, it has lived upon the war
issues By advocating the retention of |
war tariffs in time of peace, thus en-
abling it to reward manufacturers Of |
protected goods, who in return
were expected to support its existence, I
and by the payment Of so-called pen
sions to hundreds of thousands of Re-
publican voters who never saw bat
tle-field during action. Like it's prede-
cessors. the Republican party has ex-
hausted the issue which prompted and
its existence, and is now en-.
gagged in the campaign which will de-
tide its dissolution or precarious ex-
stence for the next four. years. This,
IN great measure, accounts for the
many desperate measures they have
adopted, or have tried to adopt. in the
past few months and years, but with
title avail. The masses have decided
hat the party that has lived by deceit
md fraud, that has Eeen leech upon
he wage-earners by sucking the life
Hood from thousands upon thousands
# toilers through the fat-frying
'rinciple of taxing their employers,
hat has promised protection" but
protected only their oppressors in their
lcts OF oppression, and that has broken
aith with them in every instance
where they courted confidence and fair
ealing. is no longer the party to be in
rusted with the power of government,
