WE WILL STOP WHEN 1T
HURTS

The Portland Oregonian sees the i'm
pending doom of protection, and lugu-
briously walls: Every well. then; let US
have GROVER CLEVELAND and free
trade. And after we get GROVER CLEvE-
LAND and free trade, after protection
shall be no more, we shall. then see if
everybody will have plenty and content
and be happy therein; whether there
will never be any further trouble about
wages: whether strikes and riots will
be no more," and so on, until it ends in
a sobbing repetition of "Let us have
CLEVELAND and free trade"
One of Punch's cartoons. back in the
'40's, represented PEEL i'll the door of a
swimming booth, covering. fearful of
the effects Of headlong plunge into
the waters of free trade where Golden
and BRIGHT stood urging PEEL to make
the plunge. PEEL made it and took
England in after him, and she came out
of it to run the commercial race in
which she has distanced all competitors.
The Oregonian shivers in dread of the
bath it admits is inevitable. The GLOBE
assures its doubling contemporary that
the bath won't hurt it bit. but will do
it good, and it assures 1t that just as
soon as the Oregonian feels that "GRo-
YER CLEVELAND and free trade'' be-
gins to hurt. the GLOBE will agree to
scurry back to protection with the Ore
gonian. Isn't that fair?

A minister was residing with farmer
Ill Glasgow, while on visit to that city.
In reply to an invitation to eat some
fine fruit. he mentioned that he had

Mount Vernon, 10.
Boston is said to be profoundly

the mustache of Chief Justice Fuller.

King-Humbert of Italy has inherited
none of bis fathers qualities, and in
stead of wine he drinks water; were it
not for Queen Margaret, who has earned
the reputation as high liver, gastron-

Guided from the court in Italy, where
the dinner service, even for every dav,
is of solid gold. One of the kings ia
vorite dishes is the "Fritta," made of
livers, cockscombs and artichoke bot

According to foreign papers, while
the Duchess of Sanfelice was walking
Via Fireuze, in Rome, recently, the
coril holding her necklace of pearls
broke, and the gems, valued at $4,000,
rolled into the sewer. An alarm was
sent to the department of streets, and
laborers were instructed to search for
the pearls, the Via FireuZe in the mean
time being closed. The hunt was sue
cessful, and all but four of the Jewels
were found.
W. S. Hobart died the other day in
San Francisco, worth $1,000, GOO. In is7o
he was carman in the Chollar mine,
and received 81 a day for pushing an
ore car in the lower levels. Then he
made little money in stocks and put it
into teams, with which he hauled ore to
the mills. He prospered at this and
finally got contract to extract ore
from the Chollar mine on certain roy

fortune.

MINNESOTA CAN BE CARRIED
FOR CLEVELAND.

If every Democrat ia Minnesota does
his duty between now and Nov. 8, the
nine electoral votes of the state will be
cast for CLEVELAND and STEVENSON.
This is not bluff; it is not optimism; it
is demonstrable fact. 1t only requires
the aid of every Democrat. 1t can be
made on straight fight and without
fusion.
1t is a presidential year." but those
we have had offer GROUNDS for our faith.
In. 1880 GARFIELD had 60 per cent of the
vote of the state: i'll 1854 BLAINE had IS
per cent; i'm 1888 HARRISON had Sd per
cent; in 1890 MERRIAM had &c per cent.
WILSON 30 per cent and OWEN "a per
cent. A change of l per cent would
have elected WILSON; change OF 2 per
cent would have given the state to
CLEVELAND. That IS, change of one
man in the one case and of two men in
the other out of every one hundred men
would have carried the state the other
way.
Can these changes be made? From
all sections of the state come reports of
Republicans who say they will vote for
SlIi-N ELAND. SOlle QU UOt Ike lax
RIsON: some are opposed to protection:
some simply believe in CLEVELAND;
some see that Republicanism has come
to be paternalism, and refuse to go with
their party. Such remarks are'of COM
mon. everyday occurrence. WEAVER
will not hold the votes of thousands CT
his men from CLEVELAND. They know
they can't elect WEAVER. and they
know they can erust CLEVELAND.
If Democrats do their duty; vote
themselves; find out these "CLEvE-
LAND Republicans" in their neighbour
hood. encourage them. get them to the
polls, success Is certain. But it needs
work. Democrats owe it. Mr.. CLEvE-
LAND is essentially their product as
candidate. The politicians were against
him. Many doubted his availability;
while they admired him, they opposed
him. The great army. the rank and
file. brushed aside the selfish and UNI
selfish opposition alike, and demanded
CLEVELAND. The opposition bent to
the impact of the popular demand.
Democrats. he is your candidate; you
made him So; on you rests the obliga-
ton to do all in your power to justify
your judgment. If you do what YOU
can. the count of the November ballots
will show that the GLOBES assertion
that CLEVELAND can carry Minnesota
is not ian irideScent dream"

LEARNING THEIR LESSON.

Inc great wool-growing state of Texas
leads the opposition to the MCKINLEY
tariff CD wool. The Reporter, published
at the town of Alice in the Lone Star
state, sizes up the situation in the fol-
lowing concise and unanswerable fash
ION: "Wool is selling in this market at
l6 and II cents pound, and yet there
IS big tariff On foreign wool. How long
VIII 1t take the farmers to learn that a
tariff on wool is an injury to them?
How long will it take them to learn that
manufacturers combine and pay them
what they please for their wool: in fact.
able them to pay the tariff rates on for
eign woods. which they must have fol
mixing purposes. so that they sell their
products at the old price,"
How long will it take the farmers to
learn? That is the question: question
OF time merely. =.
Not the farmers of Texas, for they
have already learned, as is evidenced
by the annually increasing majoritles
with which they indorse the Democratic
doctrine of tariff reform. But the farm

PRAISE FOR PATTIsoN.

The governor has been fair and manly
ali the way through this Homestead af-
fair. and public opinion SuStainS him.
Harrisburg Telegraph (Rep.)
We rejoice that he has at length
acted. We heartily commend the wis
dom and prudence which have put in
line all the resources of law and order.
We approve the action which is now
taken. We make no criticism of the
delay in calling Out troops. This has at
least permitted the first anger of pas
sion to subside, given time for the voice
OF reason to be heard and enabled the
leaders of the men to reaSsert their con-
troll and uth0rity.-Philadelp Press
Rep.)
The governor has acted throughout
this trouble with wise prudence. He
mas refused all hasty appeals to the
military force of the commonwealth
until satisfied that the civil power was
exhausted or hopeieSSiy inefficient.
There will be no fighting. The soldiers
are not ordered to Homestead to carry
Old war. but to support the sheriff in the
exercise Of his lawful authority. The
mere presence of such force will he a
guarantee of peace, and under it's pro-
lection order will be preserved and the
civil authority re-established at Home
stead. Philadelphia Times (Ind)
The action OF Gov. Pattison in order
Ing out the state militia will be COM
mended and approved by all good citi-
zenS.. 1t is not to win glory and bid for
laurels that the troops are sent to Home
stead. Nor are they ordered there to
take the lives Of as many men as posi-
Die TO lessen the number on the other
side. This is no war and there should
be no pitched battle. Their purpose in
being dispatched to the scene is alone to
remind men OF their duty to their cOun-
try and the respect they owe the laws of
the land. -Harrisburg Call (Rep.)
Gov. PattisOn. of Pennsylvania. has
done well to call out the entire division
OF the National Guard of that state to
restore order at Homestead. There has
been some disposition to criticise him
for not having taken such step sooner,
but falr-minded people will generally
reel disposed to the conclusion that de-
llDerate action was quite as wise a
policy. The strikers have now had
every opportunity they could ask to put
their side of the case before the public
and to make their disposition clear. If
Gov. Pattison had rushed some troops
TO the scene of the trouble the moment
he heard ofIast Wednesdays collision
there would have been more or less ques-
tioning as to the rights and wrongs of
the question at issue and as to the ne
cessIty or wisdom of his action. Now
the public sentiment Of the entire nation
Will unqueStiOnably sustain his course,
and the strikers will havs no moral sup
port In making any opposition to the
coming of troops.-New York Evening

M,KINLEY QUESTIONED.

The Socratian method las been adopt
ed and adapted for campaign purposes
by the United Question Club of MasSa-

Lowing Undergraduates at WILLIAM Nc
KINLEY Jr.:
1. Ip what way does protection affect
wages? .. A prominent Pittsburg manufact-
urer states that the present reductions in
wages are purely questions of business. and
thats'the iron trade doesn't warrant the pay
ment of existing wages i'll spite of protec-
ton" Do you agree with the above state
ment? 3. If you do, are we to continue to
put unlimited faith in the oft-repeated, as
sertions of high proectionists that protection
raises wages? l. Will you, as an offset to the
depressing news of reductions and strikes in
the.grearest of projected industries, name
instances where wages have been raised as
the result of your bill? 5. Who have been
the principal beneficiaries of your bill?
These are what might technically be
considered ''hOt Ones" Mai. MCKiN-
LEY should give it out, once for all, that
he is neither a Delphic oracle nor a
planchette, and that he doesn't pro-
pose to answer any tariff riddles, how
ever easy. He should stick to his orig
1nal declaration that 1.-THE tariff is doing
its own talking" and refer his tor
mentors to Homestead or to perdition.
