VINEYARD HAVEN, Mass, July es.-
The three masted schooner Everett
Webster, of Philadelphia, laden with a
cargo of coal, struck the wrecked steam
yacht Alva on Pollok Rip shoal, causing
the Webster to leak badly. She set her
colors for assistance, and the steam tug
Joshua Lovett went to her. The Web
ster had four feet of water in her hold,
but the Lovett put suction hose on
board, and will probably be able to
keep her free.

EX-GOVERNOR coz FoR CLEVELAND.

Ex-Governor j. II. Cox, of Ohio, has
announced his determination to Join
Judge Gresham, Wayne MacVeagh,
Charles Francis Adams and other illus
trious old time Republicans in their
protest against the g. o. p. He will
vote for Grover Cleveland for President.
The announcement of Ex-Governor
Cox intention will fall like thunder
bolt In the demoralized ranks of the
Republican party, despirited by general
apathy and funereal gloom and he will
have many followers.
Both as q soldier and citizen, ex-
Governor Cox has occupied command
ing position. We was a Major General
in the Union Army, serving with dis
tinction in the Army of the Potomac
and the Army of the Ohio. He was
twice Governor of Ohio, following the
war and declined nomination for a
third term; was Secretary of the Inter
ior under Grant and a member of Con-
gress from the Toledo District. He
has been Judge of Cincinnati courts
and is the present dean of the Cincin-
natl Law School.
Republican madness on the Mckinley
bill has forced him from the party he
has supported for thirty-two years as it
has done Judge Gresham, Wayne Mac
Veagh, Charles Francis Adams and an
untold host of independent thinkers the
country over.
Vote for Grover Cleveland and right
your country's wrongs, seems to be the
Republican watchword now,

OBJECT LESSON IN TARIFF REFORM.

A New Jersey Democrat has prepar-
ed unique object lesson in tariff re-
form for the New York World, in
which he says that few years ago qui-
nine was sold to the consumer at two
cents grain.
A New York paper called for a sub
stitute of the same medicinal virtue
within the reach of the poor, but
without success.
At that time cinchonidia, greatly
inferior and cheaper product of Peru
Wan bark, was largely used for the
poor, but two Philadelphia firms, qui-
nine manufacturers, were making mil
lions.
Quinine now enters free, and the
American product is used more than
ever, because of an increased consump,
tion, and on account of its reliability II
commands better price than the for.
eign article. Cinchonidia is now hardly
ever prescribed, and quinine can be
bought anywhere for one eighth part OF
its former price-a quarter of cent q
grain.
Is it not also high time to have the
heavy duty removed from raw wool
and have shoddy, the product of Eu
ropes pest-breeding rags, declared un-
fit to clothe American treemen?

THE lNDs PENDENT EXODUS.

The Independent Republican voters
of Massachusetts have promulgated an
address on the issues and candidates of
the campaign, in which they accuse
Harrison for whom they voted in
1888, of deception and breach of faith
and concluding as follows
We trust Mr.. Cleveland as a man
who has never deceived us. His elec-
tion, In our judgment, is demanded by
every public consideration, and we urge
all our fellow citizens, therefore, to
give him their hearty support.
The list of signatures includes the
names of some of the foremost philan-
thropists, educators, authors and states
men of the Old Commonwealth headed
by ex-Congressman Henry l.. Pierce
and includes VIM. Lloyd Garrison,
Prof. n. 5. Shaler, President Elliot of
Harvard University, 7. b. Aldrich,
Martin Brimmer, Col. Theodore Ly-
man an ex-Congressman, Charles
Francis Adams, Prof. Charles Elliot
Norton and Richard II. Dana.
These men, all old time Republicans,
arraign President Harrison for at
tempting to subsidize the press by the
appointment of leading editors to diplo-
matte positions, and because the "spoils
system has been shamelessly enforced
In every department of the Govern
ment except the Navy Department"
He is condemned for his use of the
patronage for his own and his party's
advantage, for displacing Collector
Erhart, for removing officers who voted
for Blaine in the Philadelphia caucuses
and with crowding the Minneapolis
Convention with the recipients of his
fayors bestowed at the public cost.
The address asserts that many of the
Independents of Massachusetts who
voted for Mr.. Cleveland in 1884 voted
against him in 1883 because Mr.. Har-
rison promised to be more consistent
civil service reformer. 1t shows the
powerful under current the country
over in favor of Grover CleveIand's re-
turn to the Presidential chair.

THE DEMOCRATIC PURPOSE,

Chairman Carter of the National Re-
publican Committee thinks the election
of Democratic President means the
election of a Democratic House and
Senate, a view in which Secretary
Charles Foster, Senators Sherman and
Aldrich and other Republican leaders
concur. The New York World accepts
the verdict and says:
This is the Democratic purpose
there need be no mistake about that.
They ask the people for full control of
the Government. And the people, tired
of divided responsibility, as they were
outraged by Republican eXcesses when
that party had full swing, evidently in
tend to give the Democrats entire re-
sponsibility and power commensurate
with it.
This is as it should be. The majority
should rule.
With the Democrats in control the
peoples mandate will no longer be
dehed as for the past two years it has
been. -...
If they can gain the Senate as we'll as
the Presidency bills for tax reduction
will no longer be insolently pigeon-hol-
ed in the upper house. When the Rep
resentatiVes of the people pass reason
able appropriation bills the Senate will
not add $33,000,0O0 to them, as the
present Senate did to the bills passed
by the House.

veterans or ST. Paul, Mimi, have
issued an address to their comrades to
vote for Grover Cleveland. They assert
that Cleveland is the earnest and true
friend of the men who saved the nation,
and close their appeal as follows:
"But we will not do the intelligence of
the ex-soldier the injustice of asking his
support of Grover Cleveland for this one
reason. On the contrary, support of his
candidacy is urged because of the added
reasons that his candidacy is a declara-
ton of war against monopolists, combi-
nations and trusts, as also against the
domination OF the plutocratic class that
has placed its fetters upon the masses,
because 1t means that the wealth of the
people shall be allowed to remain in con.
troll Of those who earn it, because it means
to all toilers more work, more bread,
more happy homes, more general pros
perity.n

CLEVELAND AND THE VETERANS.

There Is q powerful soldier move
ment In Minneapolis for Grover Cleve-
land, growing out of the effort to make
campaign material over Grand Army
speech made by General Dan Sickles at
the Washington Encampment,i In which
he paid q tribute of comradShip to the
President of the United States. General
Sickles denies, over his own signature,
that his speech had any political signifi-
canoe, save as 1t came under partisan
Interpretation but in any case 1t has
brought public attention to several
important facts of interest to the vete-
rams.
The first is that President Cleveland
gave to the soldiers, In General John @.
Black, himself soldier, shot all to
pieces in the war and suffering from
unhealed wounds, the best Commits
sioner of Pensions the service has ever
known. This fact Is susceptible of
proof by inquiry of those cognisant Of
his services at Washington and through
out the country irrespective of party.
The second fact Is that President
Cleveland showed himself at all times
the friend aud defender of the real
fighting soldiers of the war, the men
who performed the service and
deserve the rewards. Though he sharply
scored In his vetoes, those who,
through fraud or Congressional care
lessness, were seeking to Fix themselves
upon the pension rolls, held honorable
by reason of the fact that pension
under che then-existing laws meant
service-now, uuhappily, no longer the
case-yet the fact remains that he
signed more private pension bills than
were approved in the sixteen preceding
years of Republican rule. Concerning
those yetOes General Sickles then said
In speech at Utica, October 5, 1888:
Now as to President Cleveland's rec
ord in behalf of the soldiers. They
charge that he has vetoed good many
pension bills. So he has. 1 have read
his views. ] am a soldier. love my
soldiers. Had l been President and a
Congress had passed such bills for my
soldiers, l should have vetoed every
one of them, too. They were mostly all
frauds and shams, and l had no frauds
under me. Any right-minded man,
sworn to discharge his duty, would
have signed these vetoes as President
Cleveland did.
The truth Is that under Clevelands
administration there were 192,070 pen
sion claims allowed, an excess of Ga, ,65S
over the allowances under fourpreceding
Republican administrations;an land during
General Blacks administration of the
pension bureau under Cleveland there
was disbursed for pensions 1924, 1888 900,
an excess of $62, $4,000 over the pay
meuts during the Gardeld-Arthur ad-
ministration.

McKINLeY'S LATEST FLOP.
From the N. Y. World.

Gov. Mckinley would do better to
stick to that same old speech. The
moment that he departs from its pom
derous platitudes and feeble fallacies
he gets into trouble. On Friday he
said:
If tariff Is put on an article which is
not produced in this country the price
of that article is the foreign price, plus
the duty. In that case we pay the duty.
A protective tariff may for a time be
paid by the consumer, but the moment
the United States is able to produce
the article, competition cuts the price,
and the foreigner must meet the cut,
thereby assuming the tax himself.
Let US see about this.
The United States is able to produce
woollens. 1t has taxed them under the
tariff for three quarters of century.
The present duty averages 80.62 per
cent. On some fabrics in common use
by workingmen it is as high as from ITO
to 150 per cent. There was imported
last year of manufactures of wool $43,-
100000 worth, upon which there was
collected at our custom houses and paid
into the Treasury S35,000O0O.
Does Gov. Mckinley mean to assert
will anybody outside of a lunatic
asylum or a protection club believe
that foreign manufactures "cut, the
price" of their woods for the American
market 80 per cent? To assert such a
thing is to assume that these manu-
facturers sold us $43O0OOOO worth of
woolen manufactures for $8OOO,OOO-
cutting the price" S35,OOO,OOO, which
assuming the tax themselves would
require-in order to sell to Americans !
The same thing is true of glass, ma
chinery and other manufactures of iron,
carpets, cottons, clothing, cutlery, salt,
tobacco and number Of other staple
articles manufactured here. The duty
on these ranges from so to over 100 per
cent. Gov. Mckinley admits that "a
protective tariff may for time be paid
by the consumer" The bulk of the ar
ticles on our tariff list have been highly
protected for thirty years. The asser-
ton that foreign manufactures "cut
the price" 80 to 100 per cent. in order to
assume the tax themselves" is worse
than a paradox-it is either dishonesty
or idiocy.
McKinley's old speech is safest.

THE NEGRO EXODUS.

Bishop John M. Brown of the African
Methodist Episcopal church of Wash
ington, ID. O., openly denounces the Re-
publican party, as a party of broken
pledges and promises and In an open
letter to his people calls upon them to
vote the Democratic ticket or stay at
home.
Bishop Brown says the negro has
been tae tool of the Republican party
long enough. He does not believe it is
for the interest of the negro to be allied
to any political party, and that 30 long
as the Republicans are sure Of the
negro vote they have no respect for his
interests. He has talked with many
intelligent negroes who share the same
views. Following are extracts from
Bishop Browns letter to the churches
under his charge which are growing
quite numerous in the South. 1t will
be seen that the farmers and the labor
ers of the North and Vast are not the
only elements Of disintegration In the
ranks of the g. o. p.
"For nearly thirty years we have
done all we could to make the Republi.
can party successful. We have voted
and some Of our people have died for
It's progress. But now the question is
being asked by a large number Of US,
how are we being benefited by our ad-
herence to it? The chalice Is put to
our lips but it is made to vanish before
one comfort comes to US.
The Bishop then contrasts this with
Mr.. Cleveland's course In nominating
Mr.. Mathews for Register of Deeds in
Washington and his insistence on the
nomination until he was shown that
the Republican Senate would not con-
firm him. OF Mr.. Cleveland he says
Not long ago he spoke most kindly Of
our people and urged kind treatment
toward colored citizens. was told by
a gentleman in New York-at one time
Chief of the Indian Bureau, a man of
wealth and social position, Demo-
crat, Southerner by birth and
education and an ex-slave holder-that
he had been assured by Mr.. Cleveland
that If elected President he would prove
himself as true to the interests of
colored men as any man who might be
elected.
The question comes to us, what is our
duty in casting our ballot, If we vote at
all? For Mr.. Cleveland or for the per-
son who has no pronounced opinion for
the colored man only on election day ?
1t is not social equally we ask for, but
we do ask that we be treated fairly
1 appeal to you, dear brethren, to
think before you act, and do not act so
to engulf us in other and more severe
difficulties. If you cannot consistently
vote for Mr.. Cleveland, then stay away
from the voting precinct. The time
has come for us to act, and act, decided.
ly. JOHN M. BROWN.

THE REPUBLICANS ALARMED.

eff the Republicans lose in this cam
paign it will be because of general
apathy" said a prominent Republican
returning from business trip to Bos-
ton, and added, 81 never saw anything
like it, there is positively no interest in
the campaign anywhere"
Where, then, is the great Republican
tidal wave which was to sweep the
rousing Democratic victories of the
past two years from the face of the
earth?
Certainly there is, as yet, within three
weeks of election, no perceptihle sign
that the people rue their rebuke of the
criminal extravaganza and odious class
legislation that have operated to bring
about the downfall of the Republican
party and a return to the Democracy Of
power and trust.
Everywhere Republicans are quietly
renouncing allegiance to party that
has deceived and betrayed the working
masses in the interest of monopolies
and trusts and Carnegie millionaires
ana avowing their intention to vote, for
the first time, for clean sweep, from
President down.
They know things are wrong and that
the remedy lies in the ballot. The
calm deliberation with which they pro-
pose to act is what worries the Repub-
lican campaign orators, who had hoped
to sink real issues in swhoop and
| hurrah.

When did the Mckinley bill take
effect upon the price ?-Ans. About q
year earlier, when 1t became evident that
1t would pass. Comparisons based on
prices during the year previous to July
