THE WORKMAN'S BENEFIT.

Senator Hale recently remarked that the
workingmen of this countrJ were never so con
tented and well paid as now. 1.-The Providence
Journal replies by citing a quotation from
Bradstrcet's, to the effect that the number OF
lock ed-out and striking employees throughout
the country increased last week from about
80 900 to 100, 900. Everybody knows" it
adds, "thc comparative value of the two au-
thorities in these two cases" Apparently The
Journal" does not know that the number OF
strikes and " lock outs" in Frce-Trade England
is relatively much greater than in the United
States under the Mckinley Act During the
week to which it refers a general strike among
the Lancashire cotton spinners was reported 10
be pending in consequence Of reduction OF
10 per cent in wages and decision on the
part Of the manufacturers TO operate their fac
tories on short time. This labor revolt closely
followed prot acted lock out which had only
recently been settled. That is only one cut OF
many strikes which have recently occurred
under the revenue-tariff system which "Thc
Journal advocates. The folly of attrbuting
all the labor disturbances in the United states
to the operation Of the Mckinley Act does not
REQUIRE demonstration. Senator Aldich has
covered the ground In his mastery speech. and
produced convincing evidence that there IS
more unrest and discomfort among English than
among American workingmen.
In no other American State are workingmen
80 well paid, so fully employed or living SO
comfortably as in Rhode Island, whence this
protest is raised against Senator Hale's com
ments upon the prosperity Of labor. The Nc
Kinley Act has opened every factory that was
closed, and enlarged the plant and production
of nearly all the leading industries. Work was
never more constant and remunerative in Rhcde
Island than it is to-day. Senator Aldrich, in
referring to the labor interests of his own
State. made the remarkable declaration that the

York presents him to the convention ana pledges
him her electoral vote Directly following
his nomination ratification meeting was held
by the Democrats of Elmra, and to this meet
ing David B. Hill sent this telegram: " Per
nit me to Join with my fellow citizens OF Elmira

wears ago. This year, instead OF being the
unanimous choice of the NewYorl delegation,
his nomination was unanimously protested
against by that delegation, as one which would
mperil the success Of the party and would ex-
nose it TO the loss of the electoral vote OF the
State" Not n single NewYorker helped 10
carry the Chicago Convention for him. TN
the contrary the most notable speech made IN
that bOdy-Bourke Cockran's-waS an elaborate

Cleveland was informed of his nomination New

which will cast the determining vote for the
Presidency This look as though Cleve-
lands strength in It was greater or less than II
was In 1888?
II is also to be borne in mind that the Cleve-
land of to day is weaker than the Cleveland OF
1855 because the Democracy OF New ork, III
view of the crimes against popular government
which it lately has committed, is essentially
weaker. This Democratic weakness was sig
nally attested last spring at the local elections
throughout the State, and is certain To snow
isef again in November. As the candidate OF

savings of the working people, averaging nearly
81 900 for each family, deposited in the savings
hanks furnish the best evidence Of their pros
porous and satisfactory condition. These
savings" he remarked accumulated since the
inauguration of the Protective policy of the
United States are greater per capita than those
NJ any other industrial community in the
world ANY one who knows Rhode Island
thoroughly will confirm this opinion. The State
is \ great industrial hive swarming with pros
norons labor French Canadian workmen, who
have been there only few years, live in their
own houses, have large accounts IN the savings
banks. and are living under conditions OF SUI
prene contentment. There Is no more pros
nerous labor in the world than can be found
enioying the benefits of Protection in the little
commonwealth where the leading journal affects
to believe that the operatives are crushed and
oppressed by what Mr.. Cleveland describes as
tariff robbery.
II is of the highest importance in this canvass
that Republican speakers and journals should
make very large use Of the arguments which
Senator Aldrch has produced in his remarkable
tariff address. Wage-earners will elect the
next President and the next Congress. The
anpeals from the stump should be made in the
most lucid and practical way directly to them
Their wages are so per cent higher to-day than
they were in 1860. and owing to the cheapening
of the cost of living the purchasing power of
those wages has risen "a per cent. This is
what Protection has done for them. Accord
ing to Senator Aldrichs calculation the Nc
Kinley bill in the course of two years has in
creased the purchasing power of their wages
over per cent besides securing for them I'M
interrupted employment and protection against
the cheap labor of Europe. Who should vote
AGAINST Mr.. Cleveland's English policy if not
the American workingman?

The fact that Grover Cleveland was defeated
for the Presidency four years ago, and that. too
by tho candidate who is running against him
this time is an ugly one for the Democratic
party. 1t has In 1t, as they cannot help
but realize the promise that the voters will
decide the issue of Harrison versus Cleveland in
1892 a. they did in 1883. Accordingly, we
find Democratic newspapers laboring to break
the force of this bad omen by vehemeuty in
sisting that Cleveland Is much stronger now
than he was when he first tried conclusions with
Harrison But there is nothing in this conten
ton the truth being that Cleveland is a weaker
candidate to-day than he was in his last cam
paign.
