1t is creditable to Mr.. Cleveland that
he wishes to keep his wife and baby

MORE TO THINK ABOUT,

The fierce denunciations with which
all the Republican papers have met the
attitude of the strikers at Homestead
has not served to depresS or discourage
the strikers there or their fellow work
ers elsewhere. On the contrary, Ge-
fiance is met with defiance, and the wage
earners are showing that they have
learned well the lessons of our present
Industrial SYSTEM" and have gone its
logical length. They refuse to stop
where the beneiiciaries of it say the
logic or the system should stop, but run
1t TO its only end. Senator PALMER has
been roundly denounced for the stand
taken by him if this system is to be per-
petuated. But the recent declarations
OF labor councils show that they mold
the same views of the necessity of taking
all the consequences if we take any Of
the policy of protection by taxation. The
GLOBE has called attention recently to
some of these utterances, not that it
approves of them, but to set people to
thinking where this, industrial system
is carrying the nation to. and to show
them how rapidly they are approaching
Niagara. 1t again calls the attention of
such of its Republican readers as see in
this condition portent of evil, to the eX-
tracts from the report of the advisory
committee of tine Homestead strikers.
1t directs their attention especially to
the calm and dignified manner in which
this new doctrine is stated. 1t shows
no anger, no rash impulse to return
blow for blow, but it evinceS cOnciu-
sion reached by reasOnand logic. These
men base their case OH the fact that
1.-THE national legislature has seen
fit to especially foster and pro-
tect by public taxation the indus
try of their mills. and the state of
Pennsylvania is today guarding them
at great extraordinary expense" This
shows clear comprehension of the
purpose and effect of the protective
system. They reject Mr.. McKINLEY's
delusion that the foreigner pays the
tax, and declare bluntly that the public
pays it. "Therefore"-and here is the
point that demands there
fore the committee desires to express
to the public its firm belief that both
the public and the employees have
Q Iuitable rights and interests in the
slid mill, which cannot be modified or
diverted without due process OF law.
The employees have right to cOntinu-
Gus employment in said mill during
efficiency and good behavior" 1t is
easy enough for Democrat to combat
this, because he combats the system
On which it is based. but is is impossi-
bic for any supporter of the system to
refute the logic of their argument. To
deny it is to deny the fundamental
doctrine on which the system rests
thatit is for the benefit of the laborers
to whom it gives employment. The
Pioneer Press has the floor.

THE ROOT OF THE EVIL.

carnegie makes too many appeals for
protection. First, he wants protective
tariff against importation of his prod
ucts. This done he wants protection
from his starving employees who knock
hungrily at the gates of the fortress he
has reared.-Quincy Herald.
If protection be intended, as is
claimed. to secure american wages to
American workmen," why are its
champions so given, as at Homestead,
to supplanting American with foreign
pauper labor" even at the rifles
mouth?-New York World.
That such gigantic fortunes, created
by such gross injustice, are menace to
social peace and progress has long been
plain to every man. That the working
men in whose name this robbery has
been committed must IN time rise
against their masters was fOreSeen. The
marvel of all is that the men who have
been the victims of this tariff conspiracy
should so long be indifferent to the in
fiuences working against their welfare.
louisville Courier-Journal.
The tariff-fattened barOnS can no
longer fool the people by lying, and
yesterday they called to their aid a body
af armed Hessians to shoot down such
OF their prospective serfs as would not
submit quietly to be trampled upon.
For quarter of a century protection
has been sustained by lie; yesterday
Carnegie q Co. inaugurated the plan OF
the future; henceforth protection is to
be sustained by force, and if necessary
by blood.-New Orleans States.
When the Mckinley bill was pending
the iron and steel men were permitted
TO fix the iron and steel duties to suit
their own interests. and their action
was based on the pretense that the
duties imposed were necessary to the
protection of the interests of the labor
ing men. The latter were told that
high protective duties meant higher
wages. The doctrine was preached by
great political party, and it was pro-
claimed even by the president of the
United States. The taxation thus i'm
posed in the name of American labor
has been used to protect combinations
OF capitalists and to fill the pockets of
the Carnegies, while the workingmen
have been forced to accept lower wages.
Buffalo Courier.
President Harrison may succeed in
bringing about settlement in order to
save the Republican party, which has
made Mr.. Carnegie prince of million
aires; President Harrison may succeed
in inducing this tariff baron to abandon
his attempt to compel 1900 men to ac-
cept reduction of 80 per cent in their
wages; he may induce him to send his
bloody PinkertOn hlrelings home and to
dismantle that fort which he has erected
to carry out his policy of war against
his workingmen; but whether President
Harrison succeeds or not, the damning
fact remains that the industry which is
most benefited by tariff taxation and the
firm which has been enabled to despoil
the American people to the most gigan-
tic extent, have given the American
people an object lesson in the results of
rObber protection which can never be
etfaced.-Omaha World-Herald.

The New York Sun of last Sunday
printed an appreciatiYe article upon the
subject of Senator Edward o. Wolcott's
career his talents and his idiosyncrasles.
Curiously enough, however, it neglected
to give one incident which fairly illus
trated, we think, the gemleman's fear

sion some years ago friend took VOL
colt for a drive in the suburbs of Lead
vile, and WOlcott expressed suspicion
that the horses were perhaps too friSky

Weleott bore this patiently till presently
they began to descend one of those

"WiN you let me drive awhilew asked
Weleett.

pecting no evil.
But no sooner had Wolcott got the
reins than he turned to his companion
and said: You have been shaming me
for my timidlty. My turn has come
now. Well see who sQueals f1rsti''
With that he flung the reins over the
horses backs and began plying the
whip furlously. The frightened horses
dashed down the Hill, swinging the
buggy around curves and against bowl
ders in such wise as to threaten its
demolition. Wolcott continued to ply
the whip and to shout at the maddened
brutes. His friend clung. white and
trembling, to his seat. 1t is a marvel
that both were not killed. Finally the
buggy was overturned. the horses broke
away, and WolcoJt and his friend were
left in confused heap. with a broken
arm, a sprained ankle and dozen body

Wolcott, gathering himselftogethe and

SPECIMEN JABS AT WEAVER.

Mr.. Weaver was back number in
his best days. He failed under the
Greenback banner to carry single
state. Will he be any more of bother
under the new scneme2-Bath (Me.l
Times.
James b. Weaver has been sent out
from too many caves of Adullam to rep
resent the denizens of those strange
places to be much of surprise now as
the candidate OF the Peoples party or to
rank as a person OF special interest,
even femporarily.-Pr0vid (R. L.

The fierceness with which many
Democratic papers are attacking
Weaver and the Peoples party con-
trasts strangely with the assurances of
other Democrats that Weaver is going
TO win their victory for them by throw
ing the election into the hOuse.-Buf-
falo, On. " Express.
Gen. Weaver in 1873 was elected to
congress on the Greenback ticket, and
in 1880 was made the Greenback candi-
date for president, receiving 307, 300
votes. In 1881 he was again elected to
congress by a coalition of Greenbackers
and Democrats. ard held his seat for
four years.-Troy, (Pa.) Register.

The nomination of Weaver by the
PEOPLES party makes that organization
a mere shadow of the old GreenDack

the protection was only for the mine
owners, who, secure from foreign com-

edge that they could take their own

Moreover. what does our Quaker city
contemporary mean by admitting that
removal of the tariff from lead ores
would result in "a reduction in the
price OF ores?" Is it not part of the
Republican creed that protective duties
do not increase the price paid by the
consumer for articles produced in this
country? Then is it not rank hereSy
for the Press to admit that removal of
duties would ''surely be followed" by a
reduction in prices? The Press is in
danger OF having its Republicanism. as
well as its intelligence, questioned.

Politics AND THE WORLDS
FAIR

The Milwaukee Wisconsin affects to
believe that IF the Democrats had any
chance of carrying Illinois in November
tiiCy knocked it into Chicago's Sinking
river when their representatives in con-
greSs voted against the proposed apprO-
priation for the worlds fair" If the
Wisconsin knew us much about Illinois
politics as it doesn't know about good
many other things, it would never have
adorned its columns with this delicate
expression OF opinion. The worlds fair
is not a political issue, and is not likely
to become such. But in the altogether
improbable event that Chicago should
show disposition to hold the Demo-
cratic party responsible for the defeat
OF Its appropriation, the effect would he
TO materially increase that party's
chances for success in Illinois, instead
of leSSening them. There is in Central
and Southern Illinois strong feeling
resentment against Chicago's assump-
ton that she is all of Illinois ard a big
part of the rest of the earth. This re-
sentiment has been intensified by several
Incidents connected with the worlds fair.
For Instance, on the origina vote in
congress TO locate the fair, several
Southern Illinois members voted for st.
Louis, and we're forthwith subjected to
tie most violent abuse by the press of
GhIca-O. The constituents OF these
congressman supported them Loyalty,
and roundly denounced Chcago's pre-
sumption in considering that every con-
gresham elected in Illinois is elected to
represent Chicago. As a result of this
controversy, both Chicago ard its big
fair lost caste in Central and Southern
Illinois. Moreover. the smaller cities
and towns and villages of Illinois began
to realize more forcibfy than ever that
the universal tide that was setting to-
ward Chicago was draining them of
both wealth and population. illinois
has 10 desire to be ''one-town" state"
either politically or commercially speak
ing. 1t is probable, therefore. that the
worlds fair is il less favor in the great
er part of Illinois than it is IN almost
any other part of the country. And if,
as a result OF the defeat Of its world S
fair appropriation, Chicago should
again attempt to play the role of dicta-
tor in Illinois politics, ana should decree
repriSals on the Democratic party for
the action of the house, the effect
would be an overwhelming augmenta-
iion OF the democratic vote in Illinois
outside of Cook county. But of course
Chicago is not going to do any such
foolish thing. Our Milwaukee contem-
porary Will pardon our observation that
il is talking through It's hat.

is DoNNELLY A TRAITOR =?

urged it with pertinacity.
