The times. (Owosso, Mich.) 1882-1897, 1892-07-08

The general results Of three years of re
publican control have, believe, been highly
beneficial to all classes of our people. The
home market for farm products has beer
retained and enlarged by the establishment
of great manufacturing industries, while
new markets abroad of large and increasing
value, long obstinately closed to us, have
been opened On favored terms to our meats
and breadstuffs ,by the removal of unjust,
discriminating restrictions and by numerous
reciprocal heterogeneous under section
of the Mckinley bill. OThese acts of admin
istratiOn and legislation can now fortunately
be judged by their fruits. In 1890 it was a
conflict of predictions; now our adversaries
must face trade statistics and prices current.

Cadillac Express: Judging by the opin-
ions and comments of about one hundred
Michigan republican newspapers, and by
the expressed opinions Of republicans from
different sections of the state we confidently
estimate the strength of John Il. Rich to be
at least as fve to one compared to Mr.. Pin
gree The very vigorous canvass being
made by the travelling representatives o.
Mr.. Pingree will cause him to gain som :
what on this ratio, but Mr.. Rich will receive
at least two votes in the convention for each
one cast for all other candidates. Keep this
statement i'm mind, and see how well it COM
pares with the yet to be developed facts.
Eugene Field in the Chicago News Record
speaking of the democratic nominee for vice
president says: stevenson never was a
brigadier-general in any sense; he was an
assistant postmaster gentr raj, q clerical
Office, the holder of which has no more
right to the title of general" than your
barber has to the title of professor or the
chiropOdst to the title of doctor" In fact,
Mr. Stevenson until he renounces this mis-
leading and untruthful title of general"
must he classed with that motley army of
BARRIERS, veterinarians, horse-timers, mani
cures and bug extermnators that seek to
win public confidence through the false pre-
tense of bogus professional titles"
False and misleading words and phrases
may deceive the people at first, but the fraud
cannot last long. The people have been
thinking the matter over and know that a
tariff for revenue Only" means practically
the same thing as free trade. A duty on
coffee, for instance, would not protect Amer
lean labor or industry since we cannot grow
that product In all such cases the duties
imposed is one for revenue only, and not i'm
any sense for protection. Even where du-
ties are levied on imports that come in COM
petition with home products the tariff, If so
low that it does not check or abate importa-
ton, will be one for revenue alone and not |
for protection. A revenue tariff is one adj |

er, John G. Calhoun, aptly summed up the |
whole question in this way:

erent than duties for revenue and protection.
They are as opposite as light and darkness.
The one Is friendly and the other hostile to

the following resolutions and caused them
to be circulated in pamphlet form:

years has shown that he is the most eligible
candidate for wOrkingmen's and farmers

mentioned. He is believer in Protection

We pledge the working and farmer vote

OUR ST. LOUIS LETTER.
A Hotbed Of Political condiet-Athietlo
Revival,

81. toUfs, Aug. iS,-For the first
time in the history of politics in this
state, the headquarters Of both the
great parties, as we'll as the Peoples
party have been established in st.
Louis. The Republicans have the
whole OF one story OF Il hotol on Fourth
street, the Everett house, and the Dem.
ocrats have their roons In the Laclede
hotel. The Peoples part, managers
are at the Richclieu hotel. All OF these
places are crowded from early morning
to evening with candidates and their
friends; and politicians from all parts
OF the State are making the city the
hub of every journey they take through
the counties. Both the Republican and
the Democratic parties intended Mt first
to- establish branch headquarters in
other cities in Missouri, but they aban-
doncd the idea, concluding that the
central position of ST. Louis made that
Unnecessary: Here the managers ara
able to obtain close communication with
National headquarters, too, and that Is
thing of Importance.
The athletes OF the city now see
their way clear to making st. Louis n
great athletic center. The Pastimcs
will begin soon to lay out their new
grounds near the electric car lines in
the western part Of the city, and Chris.
Won der Abe, the baseball manager,
announces that his plans nre ready for
his big ball park and athletic field,
which he intends TO have in condition
for use next season. Mr.. Won der Abe
will try to have all the games of tho
clubs which are not under the Pastime
management, held on his grounds, and
the result will be n livelier competition
in matters athletic than the city has
scSr> for some time, The Pastimcs
have no Sunday games, and that is the
point OF difference between them and
the other athletic organizations Of tho
city. Mfr. Won der Abe will open his
E, grounds with series Of ball games
carly next season, and the Pastimes
will receive the public on their field
with contest that will bring athletes
from oil over the country to St. Louis.
The admirers of Frank r Blair are
anxious that the ladies' having charge
OF the woman's exhibit for Missouri Mt
the Worlds Fair shall make the statue
they are to erect ut the entrance of tho

sourian. The ladies have not decided
whose statue they will have there. and
they want to find out first what the
