HELP REFORM THE TARIFF.
The Western Democratic Cam
paign Fund and Its Mission.
How tlevcland's Election Ma Bc
Made Absolutely Certain.
From This Mornings World. i

The Western Democratic Campaign Fund
total now amounts to s3O,24015, n sum that
will do valuable service In spreading the
great Democratic principles Of tarin reform
among tho voters ofthe Northwestern States
who are yet In doubt as to the way they will
cast their ballots.
Never In the political history OF the coun-
try has Interest In national campaign been
so backward as this year. Only now are the
people beginning TO wake up to the fact that
PRESIDENT is TO be chosen six weeks from
next Tuesday. From now on campaign mat.
ters may bo expected to boom. ana as the
tarin and candidates become more general
subjects OF conversation this fund IL likely to
attract more and more attention OF a sort
calculated to increase its efficiency.
Last week the fund advanced In q way
thoroughly satisfactory to these Interested
In the great work 1t is expected to perform
In behalf OF true democracy.
Through The WORLD 1883 persons showed
the emselves to be Democrats in deed as we'll
as sentiment by sending in subscriptions,
while many others contributed through the
columns OF the hundred odd newspapers
scattered throughout the Union which arc
allies OF TnE WORLD In this tarin reform edu.
cational movement. The amount OF money
contributed almost doubled that OF tho
week before, while tho letters which accom-
panied subscriptions showed how widespread
the belief Is that this work will be OF incal.
culable advantage to the Democratic party.
The contributions came from all parts OF the
country. md white and black, Old ana young,
men ana women showed their allegiance to
Democratic principles by swelling the fund.
The next President must be a Democrat,
nnd advantage should be taken OF every pos.
siblc plan to bring about this glorious result.
The tolid South viii stand as she has ever
done IN line for the Democracy, and New
Jersey. Connecticut and Indiana may be re-
lied upon for Cleveland and stevenson.
Every indication points that this state Will
give her thirty-six eiectora, votes TO the
chicago nominees, besides rolling up q
splendid popular majority.
The Empire State, however, has been
known to falter IN its allegiance TO Demo-
cratic principles in a PRESIDENTIAL year and
the United Democracy this campaign will be
called upon to fight the influence OF tre.
mendous corruption fund that the Republl.
cans viii pour into this state. The result OF
a national campaign should not depend on
the way any one State votes, and Demo-
cratic hopes this year are too vital to hinge
upon the why the thirty.six electors OF New
York cast their ballots
The West offers splendid field for mission
ary work, and conservative politicians who
have visited that section are convinced that
by proper presentation OF the great princi.
pies OF tarin reform enough voters can be
won over to the Democratic cause to make
Clcvelands election Independent OF New
York's vote.
The Western Democratic Campaign Fund
was inaugurated for the purpose OF spreading
the Democratic gospel or tarin reform. With
the money subscribed spe eakers will be sent
out into the States Of Illinois, Iowa. wiscon-
sin, Michigan, Minnesota, Nebraska and X an.
sas to show up the frauds OF protection and
the benents OF tarin reform. The issue will
be thoroughly explained and literature bear
ing on the subject Will be scattered broadcast,
that every voter may learn the truth and be
persuaded that his future depends on Demo.
cratic success.
Not one cent OF the money subscribed Will
be spent in bribery. Every dollar viii he ex-
pended In pushing n cam paIgn OF education,
nnd committee, on which Cows. BOies OF
Iowa, Peck, OF Wisconsin, and Boyd, OF Ne
biaskn, have consented to serve, will see that
all moneys are properly accounted for.
