The Truth In Brief.

The Manufacturers Record has an
article upon the substantial South as it
presents itself at this time-an article
uniting brevity and strength with truth
1t puts the facts it these words:
A poor man can make his little money
90 further in the South than any other
section in this country.
A man of moderate means can find
better opportunities in the South for
engaging in business than in any other
part OF the country.
A manufacturer with limited capital
can find better sites, can buy his raw
materials cheaper and can make larger
profits from business in the South than
elsewhere in theUnited States.
A man who can command large amounts
of capital can find in the South Op-
portunities for Investment that will pay
him larger returns than any other op-
portunities that the world can afford,
The poor man must be industrious, the
man of moderate means must be careful,
the manufacturer must be master of his
trade, and the capitalist must have good
Judgment and use it,

Not Due To Protection.

From the Petersburg Index-Appeal.
The strongest rebuke TO Senator Vests
arraignment Of protection comes from
he strikers themselves at Homestead
the very men cited by Mr.. Vest to illus
trate the injustice and wrong of the
protective policy. To man they avOw
themselves protectionists, and declare
that the present troubles originated in
placing steel billets, which constituted
the basis for calculating their wages, on
the free list, thereby greatly reducing the
price of billets, and consequently their
wages. 1t was a mean and brutal trick
on the part of those that perpetrated it,
but it was free trade that afforded the
opportunity, not protection. 1t IS cred
table to the intelligence and honesty Of
the strikers that they understand and
ayOw the truth IN the case, and it is
equally discreditaLle to any public man,
especially United States senator, to
mislead the public by distorting and
disappearing the facts. Let US have
campaign of honesty as well as of
education.

SECRETARY Elkins Speaks.
THIS Is THE TIME, lie SAYS. To MAKE WEST
VIRGINIA REPUBLICAN.

lhNlNAA MI 4 bAsACFNNs
WASHINGTON. July 1G Last night the
West Virginia Republican Association
held its ratification meeting in the G. A.
r. Hall, and it was a glorious Republican
iolifcaticn. There were many good
sneeebes. and for the first time in many
months Secretary of War Elkins made
puhhc speech. 1t was good old time
Rennblican address. and lt will suit the
conntrv as well as the West Virginia As
sociation. Tn cOngratulating his hearers
on being Republcans he said West Vir-
oinia was happily situated between the
Fast and the West and favored by won
derfnl resources. Her resources could be
best developed under protection, and it
was for her interest to get INTO the Re-
pnblican column and stay there.
The Republican party, he declared, had
always been in favor of protection, while
the Democracy gravitated steadily toward
free trade. Although a small element of
the party had worked at Chicago for
conservative tariff plank, it was over.
whelmed by a large majority. The pro-
tective tariff he considered great benefit
TO the wOrkingmen of the country.

popularity as the strength ct his admins
tratiOn was growing more apparent.
"The history Of the advance Of civiliza-
ton" he said, "sbowed two great f'rces
alwaya in opposition an affirmative force
reaching toward higher ideals, shedding
blood only for the good Of the race. The
other force had always occupied a mega
tive position"
While he would not say the two parties
wers as daylight and darkness, he would
call the Republican the Affirmative and
the Democratic the negative force. The
Democratic party was always trailing
twenty-five years behind The Republican.
His father served IN the Confederate
army, the speaker said, but he saw the
light the other way and followed the
Union cause, but lie was a Southerner
Notwithstanding.
The Democracy was still nursing the
sentiments of the war in the South because
it had nothing else to rest on.
In conclusion he said that this campaign
was the time TO make West Virginia
solidly Republican.

Cleveland Claptrap.

Mr.. Grover Cleyeland, perennial can
didate for the Presidency OF the United
States, has jolnted the "Force bill" shrek
ers. In letter to Kentucky Democratic
club he takes up the senseless and dis
honest cry which started purely as
campaign dodge by certain unprincipled
Democratic organs, and pirates solemny
about "menaces" TO the "welfare and
prosperity of the South"
What the Republican party said in lis
platform about the ballot is this;
eve demand that every citizen of the
United States shall be allowed TO cast
one free and unrestricted ballot in all
public elections and that such ballot
shall be counted and returned as cast (;
that such laws shall be enacted and
enforced as will secure to every citizen,
be he rich or poor, native or foreign born,
white or black this sovereign right guaran-
tee1 by the Constitution. The free aud
honest popular ballot. the just and equal
representation of all the people, as well
as their Just and equal protection under
the laws are the foundation of our republi-
can institutions. and the party will meyer
relent in its efforts until the integrity
of the ballot and the purity of elections
shall be fully guaranteed and protected
in every State.'
Here is highly important section from
the Constition of the United States bear
ing upon the same subject
"The right of citizens of the United
States to vote shall not be denied or
abridged by the United States or by any
State on account of race, color or previous
condition of servitude."
1t will be noted that the plank we have
quoted from the Republican platform is
in the fullest accordance with the Con-
sttution. Neither the platform nor the
Constitution contains any mention of
what the Democrats are pleased to term
"Force BILL" Both affirm propositions
whose acceptance is absolutely essential
to the endurance of republican form of
government IN this country. 1t is the
Republican doctrine that "every citizen
of the United States shall be allowed to
cast one free and unrestricted ballot at
all public elections" Does Mr.. Cleveland
mean to place himself on record in oppo-
sition to that vital doctrinel Is he in
favor of abrogatng the sections or the
Constitution providing for honest cleo
tioDsY II be is, why does he not have the
manliness to come out and say so boldlyl
There is not a shadow of justification in
the Republican platform for the claptrap
nonsense of his letter to the Kentucky
Democratic club.-N. Y. Press.

The Root of the Matter.

Labor organizations IN Penhsy lyania,
Idaho, and everywhere else shonld re-
member that though every lah0rer in the
country should be included in their MEM
bership except one. that one nOn-union
nan would have just as much right to
employment, Just as much right to sci.
his labor to whom be pleases, just as mach
right to be protected in that employment,
as if labor Unions had never been heard
of and, if necessary, the wholo power of
the State, or, in the last resort, of the
United States, should be employed to pro-
tect that solitary nOn-uniOn man.
The leaders of labor organizations oft n
make the misrake OF assuming thai al
labor IS organized labor, and of speaking
[ for that only. As a matter Of fact, the
majority of laborers In the United States
arc not members of labor organizations {;
but whether they are or not, the right Of
every man 20 work for whom he pleases,
when he pleases, and on what terms he
pleases, belongs TO every American ciii
zen; and it cannot be blown mp with
dynamite or shot down with Winchester
rifles.
1t is nearly $50 years since the Statute
OF Laborers fixed, or tried to fix, the price
Of labor in England In its effect, if not
wholly in its intention. that was an in
tam GUS statute. The folly of trying to
fix wages by legislation is now pretty
thoroughly recognized, and the right Of
laborers to combine is thoroughly recOg-
nized. Bat employers have not lost all
! their rights because ldbOrers have won
many new ones; nor are those labOrers
who do not happen or do not chose to be
long to labor unions, without their rights.
We contend that the rights of these, in
regard TO the matter Of labor, are some
thing like this:
l. Any person can hire or be hired by
any other person who is capable of con-
sent.
g Any workman or association of work
men can leaye work for any reason or 10
reason at any time, unless be is bound by
a contract.
g. Amy employer can put out such worl
man or wOrkmen as he chooses at any
time, unless he IS bound by a contract.
4. A non-union man is Just as good in
the eye of the law and just as mnch en-
titled to the protection of the law as if Q
we're Hugh O'Donnell himself or even
Terence V. Powderly.
An employer who pays more, or a
workman who accepts less, than the mar
ket rate is either philanthropist or a
fool.
These sayings are true.-N. \. San.

Four Bows Drowned.

BALTIMORE, July II -Four boys were
drowned while swimming in the Manokir
River, just in the rear of their residence
near Princess Ann, Md, yesterday. They
we're the sous of Christopher c. Bal,
thrifty farmer, and were sixteen, fifteen,
twelve, and ten years of age respectively,
These, with their brother George, aged
eleven years, went in swimming George

When be began to wade ont he saw
that his brothers were in trouble and he
hesitated. He then saw his four brothers
drown, one after another, within twenty
feet of him, and he was poweIless to as
sist them. The current was running very
strong and the water was very deep.
Men and boys swan mp and down the

The laber troubles in Pennsylvania still
show but little if any change for the
better, and to the lovers of peace and
good order the prospect is at this time far
from encouraging. Homestead is still oc-
cupied by a very large force of state
troops. Owing to the strict discipline ex
ercised over the troops, and, as many
think, the unnecessary severity and rather
high toned manner of the General in
command, the feeling between the strik-
ers and citizens generally upon the one
side and the military on the other is not
as friendly as it was at first The mills
still remain idle and no real attempt has
been made to start up with nOn-union or
foreign workmen although such action is
looked for daily. Warrants have been
issued for tho arrest of number of the
leaders of the strikers upon the charge OF
murder. Burgess McLuckie at once gave
himself up and was committed to Jail but
BY the time this reaches our readers will
probably be released on bail. Solar none
of the others have yet been arrested. Late
reports state that while the military are
not expecting a riot they are making
serious preparations for trouble. A large
additional amount of ammunition has
been ordered from the Franklin arsenal
although the troops have 2,5O0,COO rounds
of ball cartridges en- hand.
Such is the condition of affairs at present
but no one can tell what startling changes
an hour may bring forth.

homestead and It's HOmesJeads.
Representative Oates of Alabama is q
typical free trade Southern Democrat
but gentlemen Of his impulsive tempera-
mtnt sometimes tell truths that their
more polite fellow partisans would con-
ceal for fear of helping the enemy. Con-
gresham Oates freely admits that he
Ne, er saw such high wages paid any
where for physical labor as are paid at the
Homestead mills. Here is his testimony:
"The leaders of the workmen are men
of intelligence and capacity, and take the
wOrkmen as body, they are the best set
Of workingmen have ever come across.
The contention is not one between ignC-
rance and power. 1t is conflict of strong
men, the workmen being keen, intelligent
and always wide awake. The man who
goes TO Homestead with an idea that be
is going to find lot of ragged, half starry
ed and ignorant strikers will have great
surprise before him. 1t is revelation in
the way of a community of workingmen.
They are men of thought and action and
of independence. They have their homes,
and the skilled workmen earn from 500
to S275 per month. The laborers get
from 81 to 81 so per day. 1t is not pOY-
erty stricken community by any means"
How did Mr.. Oates come to this cOnclu-
sion2 By personal inspection Of Homo
stead and its homesteads. II other Demo
cratic politicians were to investigate
American industrial communities more,
and cultivate honesty enough not to
make sweeping assertions about them till
they had studied them at first hand, more
of them would open their eyes and fewer
of them would open their mouths.
