PRESS COMMENTS.
Impossible for Both Senator Aldrich's and
Peok's Statements to BE Correct.
From the Newport (R ~ Herald
The Republican organs who short
time ago, were commanding Senator AL
drich's statement in regard to the Of
fects of tho tariff are directly refuting
his statements when they call attention
to Mr.. Peck's monstrous array OF statis-
tics. They cannot both be correct.
The People VIII Sec to an Educational
Fund, the PlutOcrnts to the Siush Fund.
From tho st. Louis (Mo) Post-Dlspatch.
Now that the Republicans have awak-
ened to their danger in the Northwest
States, there is occasion for increased
vigor on the part of the Democrats. The
plutoorats will give freely to the slush
fund and the people must see that the
educational fund is sufficient for the
work TO be done.
Cheerful Under Adverse Circumstances
Are the Republicans In Kansas.
From the Topeka (kan.) Capital.
The Alliance has been a valuable
means of education to many farmers in
Kansas. The critical scrutiny with
which the Republican party has been
examined and all it's acts tested has
demonstrated is capacity for govern
ing country the size of the United
States Our farmers will be Republicans
hereafter by conviction instead of
prejudice.
This Years Election to he Settled Largely
by the Labor Vote.
From the Trenton IN. J.) State Gazette
This years election will be settled by
tho intelligent judgment of American
labor. Partisan feeling will have very
little to do with it. The question is
whether protection or free trade is best
for labor.
Cleveland Opposed to Pensions Because
He Was President of the Whole People.
From the Lincoln (Neb) Courier.
While some of the Third party pa
pers are accusing Cleveland of being
cans are charging that he lost $4,000
votes in the last campaign by his oppo-
sition to pensions The Republicans
are right when they say Cleveland OPP.
posed pensions. Cleveland knew that
it would be terrible drain to the
South to keep up unnecessary pensions
and he said he was the President of
the whole people.
Hope for Liberty in Wisconsin Lies la
Continuing the Democracy.
From the Chicago Qll.) Times.
Let the Republican party return to
power in Wisconsin, and not many
years will pass before there is another
Bennett law, one far more drastic and
menacing than that which Democracy
repealed. The only hope for the thor
ough liberty OF the citizen in Wiscon-
sin-the Catholic, the Lutheran. every
citizen--lies in continuing the Demo
cratic party in power at Madison. In
this view the Times will continue to ad-
monish the electors of Wisconsin, as it
counselled them two years ago. to vote
for George w. Peck.
Gustatory Undertakings That lnflame the
Southern Imagination.
From the Nashville Herald.
Suppose the reader had to face death
from starvation or appease his appetite
from a festal board whereupon was
spread that tempting morsel, Fred
Douglass!
Where would he wish to be buried?
Think of breakfasting off the force
bill?
Think of swallowing the whole Re-
pu Dllcan party?
Lord, help US! Think oft!
'Twere an awful dose, and hades itself
shudders at the prospect!
Republicanism and Federalism One and
the Same.
From the st. Louis (Mo.) Republic.
The battle has been long one, but
the federalism in the party has tri-
umphed. 1t is the controlling spirit OF
Republicanism. The men who represent
it are for Harrison because he is ono of
them, and because he represents Force
bill which, II it becomes law, will en-
able them, votes or no votes, to force
their views of law and duty upon all of
us. The Germans are not alone in this
confess. Americans must stand or fall
with them as they preserve or lose their
rights.
No Constitutional Authority for Purely
Protective Tariffs.
From he Wilmington (N. c. Star.
The fact is there is no constitutional
authority for protective tariff as pro-
tective tariff separate and apart from
the idea OF revenue, and all enactments
that take from one man money for the
benefit OF another man, although he be
engaged in an enterprise which is of
value to the public, are simple robbery
under the forms of law and arc 80 pro-
nounced by the Supreme Court Of the
United States.
