GERMANY AND THE TARIFF

The cumnetclti Al industrial
nations are banded together lii a
united effort To secure the repeal OF
the Mckinley Law and the breaking
down of the protecIiv.: barrier 1t
raises against the competing food
of their products of cheap labor.
Every available influence is brought
to bear to accomplish this. 1t will
be remembered taat in 1888 he
British Minister at Washing on went
so far as to write a letter advising a
British citizen in California to vote
for Cleveland, because it would be
to the interest OF his native land In
similar strain Is remarkable
article which appeared Sept. II,
1902, in the Munich Neueste Mach
richten, in which all citizens Of Ger
man birth IN the United States are
exhorted to come to the aid OF their
native land by voting for Cleveland
and agains protection. All Germans
who have relatives are exhorted TO
use their influence with them to in
duce them to aid in throwing dow n
the Mckinley tariff barrier.
The citizens OF the United States
who are OF German birth are among
the bsst citizens in the Republic.
On many bloody battleields and in
every relation of life they have sig
naliy demonstrated.their patriotism
and their love of the land of their
adoption. 1t is not conceivable that
they should be influenced by such
an appeal to use the privileges that
have been accorded them with the
Republics open hand to strike d
| hurtful blow al the land which has
harbored them, even at the behest OF
the beloved nd of their birth.
The bright hope extended to them
by the conditions existing in the
United S, ties tempted them away
from the Fatherland to seek homes
under these more favorable condi-
tons Now that they are sharers OF
the full advantage Of these conditions
under all the piivi eyes of citizen
ship, il is not TO be believed tFat
they will 90 to work to change the
conditions and bring the rewards OF
labor down to the conditions which

Hon. GEeaGE F. HoAR returned on
Wednesdsf i, n Europe. He called
at Re-Jllcan national headquarters
in Kew York IN the afternoon aud said
II spent the summer in England and
on the Continent. OF course, it is
unnecessary to say that in England the
great balance of sentiment is in favor
of Cleveland among all classes. They
dislike America, either as business
rival or because they do not approve
of our form of government, but the
most marked indications of the feeling
are to be found among the tradesmen
and manufacturers, who are interested
in the production Of articles which we
are now making for ourselves. Wher
ever | have been ! have been recoe-
nized as an American, and almost
invariably the toneof talk among foreign
manufacturers is one Of Encouragement
and of acknowledgment that the
Euglishman is being driven from the
market by his American competitor. 1"

REPUBLICAN PROSPECTS.

Now that the Presidential election
of 1892 is but three days distant,
the Republican leaders, with
thorough knowledge ofthe efficiency
Of their organization in the states
that are classed as doubtful, and
with the reports of trusted and cool
headed politicians before them,
assure us that the State OF New
York is reasonably safe for Harr son
and Reid.
This is the sum and substance OF
the political situation in the Empire
State as viewed from the Republican
national headquarters, and it is in
the Empire State that the battle will
be fought and decided. While it is
remotely possible that General Har
rison may be elected without New
York, it is absolutely necessary to
the success OF Cleveland. The Re
publican leaders manifest high
degree OF confidence in repeating
there TIE victory of 1888. On the
other hand, there has been an abate-
ment of the extravagant Democratic
boasts that have been current during
the entire month of October, and
the practical managers are exhortlng
the party not to be lover confident
and to remember that they have
dangerous enemy to contend
against, together with many admonl-
tons OF what may happen from Re
publican "fraud' and Republican
doodle"
All that is certain about the situa
ton is that the next week will wit
ness one of the most desperate and
exhaustive of political struggles for
majority of the nearly one million
and a half votes that will be cast IN
the State of New York and that the
prospects of Republican success in
the struggle are now taking on, in the
final stages of the campaign, the
same signs of encouragement that
were visible at a corresponding
period four years ago. The hope
fitness of the Republican managers
which they now are expressing with
more than ordinary evidences of
sincerity has been particularly
strengthened by the results Of the
registration, which were very dlsap.
pointing to the Democrats OF New
York city and which were quite
favorable to the Republicans in most
of the sections of the interior 1t Is
not necessary, in fact it is foolish,
tor outsiders 10 make cock sure pre-
dictions of the result in an electorate
so enormous and so closely divided
as that of New York. But the gen
eral consensus OF opinion among
discreet Republicans at this time who
are on the ground is SO unquestion-
ably favorable to Harrison's chances
that the party may regard the situa
ton in New York with increased
cheerfulness.

forget Col. McClure's past record as

some faith in him. but only about

as this prophecy of the Coloneps
happened upon the eve of state
election, at which the Republicans
