DOES ITS OWN TALKING.

'The tariff is doing its own talking
said Governor Mckinley. 1t is happy
aphorism that may do good service dur
ing the campaign.
The tariff is doing great deal OF
talking on its own behalf, says the New
York Press. 1t is saying, fer example
''Here's your sugar, twenty pounds for
81; used to be cents pound before
went to work upon it, Or, '.here are
your American-made carpets, really and
truly as good in quality and as elegant
in design as any of foreign make, and
they are selling as cheaply in Chicago
as English carpets of like quality sell in
London. The free traders told you that
the tariff would make carpets dearer, but
you see they didn't know anything about
it; they are cheaper than everr' Or it
says, lust look in the store windows:
Just read the advertisements in the news
papers, and see what I am doing for
you. The free traders told you that
dry goods and clothing would be 'dearer
on account of the tariff, but you remem-
Der what you paid for dress or suit
of clothes a year or two ago. and you
know what you have to pay for articles
of like quality to-day; have not made
them dearer, rather cheaper" Thus
tariff talks on its own behalf.

DEMOCRATIC LESSON.
From the New York Press.

From the New York Press.
The democratic party has learned one
Important thing about Rhode Island
The state is not for SALE Its voters car
be neither bullied nor bribed into votine
against their own prosperity in the in.
terest of foreign manufacturers. Very
little concealment was made of the fact
that large sum of money was raised
by prominent supporters Of Mr.. Cleve-
land in this state for the purpose Of car
rying Rhode Island for free trade and
the perennial candidate. One leading
democratic organ in this city announced
some time before the election that S4O,-
600 had been raised, and stated that il
was proposed to increase the amount to
100000.
At about the same time that this cor
ruption fund was collected another New
York democratic newspaper blazed forth
with suspicious suddenness in remark
able outburst of double-leaded zeal in
behalf of the Cleveland cause in Rhode
Island. Exactly how much of this fund
was paid by Cleveland's friends to the
organ that ostentatiously announced
that it would ''carry Rhode Island fol-
the democrats" will probably never be
publicly known. In view of the result
Of Wednesdays election, however, it is
pertinent to ask Mr.. Cleveland and his
intimates if they regard the investment
as entirely satisfactory.

THE TlME-HONORED PRINCIPLE
OF PROTECTION.

From the New York Sun.
Major Singerly calls the tariff plank
Of the Pennsylvania platform q ''strad-
die" The plank calls for a revision of
the tariff, with due regard for the
rights of American labor and the preser-
walton of our manufactures" This is
protection. According to the school of
tariff reformers. to which Major Singerly
and his mugwump associates belong,
American labor has no rights in the
making Of the tariff schedules. Ameri-
can manufacturers are not entitled to
consideration in the arrangement of the
taxes. The resolutions of the Pennsyl-
vania democrats may seem to Major
Singerly to be straddle. They seem
to us to stand perpendicular, with both
feet planted firmly on the great and
time-honored democratic principle of
protection.

CAN CoNFIsCATION BE AVOIDED?

From the Christian Union.
Senator PETER proposes that the gov
eminent shall lend the people money on
adequate security, at a nominal rate of
interest. What does this mean? The
government of the United States is the
people of the United States It means
that the people shall lend to the people.
Right hand pocket lend some money to
left hand pocket.
Or else it means that the people who
have money shall lend to the people who
have not. Voluntarily? No! not vol
unfairly. There is no law against their
lending voluntarily, OF low interest or
no interest at all Senator PETER pro-
poses, either that all the people shall
lend to all the people. that the right
hand pocket shall lend to the left hand
pocket, or he proposes that the men
who have saved their earnings shall be
compelled to lend to the men who have
not.
This is confiscation.
If the rich men have made their
money unjustly and are not entitled to
it, let us say SO frankly. and take it
away from them. But let us not call it
loan by the government to the peo-
pie. The government is the people.

Tho Colonies at the Fair.

The British Colonies promise to be
largely represented at Chicago. The
amounts voted by the various Colonial
Governments already nearly reach
SO, 900, three times the appropria-
tiOn made by the Home Government
-e25, O00-and large additions will
be made to this total when the other
Colonies who have applied for space
announce the amounts they intend to
spend. Canada, for instance, has not
yet decided on her expenditure,
though she will make an extensive
exhibit. The total area awarded to
Great Britain and the Colonies will
probably be about 800, 900 square
feet. the largest space ever filed by
them at any foreign exhibition ex.
cept Paris, in 1873 1868, 500 square
feet, and this will have to be in
creased by the erection Of annexes or
otherwise if the demands Of the
Colonies are to be even approximately
satisfied. New South Wales has al
ready asked for 800. 1000, the whole
amount available, other known de.
mands come up to another 100, 900,
and as much may reasonably be de-
named for Canada, so that a total
area of 500, 600 has practically been
applied for by the Colonies alone,
leaving out of the question the re-.

cult to tell an alliance member from q
way down south democrat. Possibly
Otis and Baker should be partially ex-
cepted. The comrades would certainly
enjoy the scene. The respect with
which the bills relating to the old SOL
diers are referred to would certainly
thrill the sympathizing and patriotic
breast.
1t would be impossible to give cor
rect picture of the scene II it could
be done it would certainly be invaluable
to the comrades throughout the entire
country. Some member will call up q
bill, and after the clerk has read the
designated wilder of the evening will
arise to make some inquiry. They have
it arranged so that the fellows opposed
to pension legislation OF any and all
kinds will be on hand every evening to
do the flibustering act. They always
get someone down south who was on
the other side who has no union soldiers
in his district. His constituents will ap-
prove his course. The democrats up
north keep little quiet, for they don't
want to injure their prospects for get
ting some Union soldiers again into
their bunco game on election day.
Klgore, of Texas, is one of the fell
lows who inquiries very closely into
matters on pension nights. At other
sessions he gives very little attention to
what is going on in the house. In fact,
he appears to have an abundance of
time on his hands. Cobb, of Alabama,
is another patriot deeply and seriously
interested in this line. He is the same
Cobb who was SO well ''cornered" when
he spoke in the Rockwell Noyes case,
and his conduct on that day was given
many columns in the papers of the
country next day. Bailey, of Texas,
who is Mississipian by birth, is an
other who takes a leading part in being
sure he is right on all pension bills be-
fore consenting. It is game between
this trio and the fellows of like feelings
towards the old soldiers that has so
far prevented single pension bill being
passed on pension evenings.
Filibustering on private pension bills!
Possibly, no enc will deny that it is
very striking scene.

Connecticut to their list viii give them

two states, which they are not at all sure
of doing. Suppose Indiana goes demo

What else is there to depend on? OF

Add Montana's three votes and the total

The most enthusiastic democrat can

made without due consideration. Re-
publicans may win without New York,

THE LAST STAND OFITHE WAGE
FARMERS.

Extract from Congressman Walkers
tariff speech referring to his meeting
Mr.. Hoe, manufacturer Of printing
presses, in London:
"What are you doing in London" I
asked
He replied, II am making my printing

l said, ''Can you afford to do that
Is material SO much cheaper in London
that you can afford to be at the great
expense of running two shops?''
He said, "Why, the iron and steel

to $4,000 for do not cost me anything
to speak Of. We do not count the ma
terial in estimating the cost of a ma
chine. We never figure it, it is SO small.
But" he said, skilled mechanics I can
hire here for quarter what can hire
them for in New York, and can build
these printing presses in London for a
little more than one quarter what can

Illustrations as the one drawn above prove
that the republican party is standing
against the world for the protection Of
the wage-earner against the tendency to
lower standard of living. The repub-
lican party is the stronghold and for
tress Of the laboring man. 1t is an or
ganized protest against the tendency of
free competition to debase all wage
standards to the standard of the lowest
wage country. 1t is the friend not only
of American labor but of labor in Great
Britain as we'll. The fight is for living
wages the world over as against degrad-
ing the wage-earner to the condition of
a mere machine, to a part of the mere
mechanical means of production. Labor
is making its last stand in the United
States upon the platform of the repub-
lican party and under the banner of
protection.

The Grand Old Man and His Grandchiid.
President Harrison's well-known
devotion to the babies of the White
House has parallel in Mr.. Glad
stones interest in his 10-year-old
granddaughter. A recent visitor to
Hawarden is quoted by the Pail Mall
Gazette as saying: Il never saw a
prettier sight than when she ran
through the open door which divides
the drawing-rOom from the grand old
mans sanctuary, and, pulling at the
lapelS of his dreSsing-gOwn, drew him
lmperiOusly away from Homer. or the
blue-bOOk, or whatever was engaging
him. The first intimation we had in
the next room was peal of laughter
on Mr.. GladStOne's part at the OBJ
viOuS necessity of capitulating to that
daring invasion, as musical and
hearty as ever came from human
lips, for his laugh is one of his great
est attractions. Presently the grand
old man and the little child Sepa-
rated by eighty years of time, came
hand in hand together into the draw
ing-rOOm. Mrs. Gladstone runs to
the piano and strikes up lively
waltz tune, and in second the two
partners are dancing together, the
grand old man putting into his pirou.

little steps, learned of our great
grandmothers seventy-tive years ago,

out delight and applause, although SC
much pathos mingled with comedy in
the touching scene"

THEY MUST CARRY NEW YORK.

Intelligent democrats must admit
that the prospect of their carrying New
York this year is not encouraging. Hill
has plainly demonstrated his superior
popularity with the party in that state,
and there is no doubt as to his ability to
defeat the ticket if so disposed and but
little doubt that he will be disposed.
But democrats blandly declare that they
can elect Cleveland without New York.
How true is that?
To have majority in the electoral
college it win be necessary to secure 223
electoral votes. Admitting that the
democrats viii carry all the ex-slave

niflcant wink at several young men
who were lounging at the door of his

Some Of the rules of health followed
through life by Mr.. Ingraham are
worth rejecting upon.
He did not believe in the loose Gus
tom Of the young men of to-day of
changing his boarding place often.
for he boarded in one family cOntinu-
ously for sixty years, and slept in one
room throughout the whole time.
He was stranger to arsenic poison,
for he discarded wall paper as a fool
ish luxury.
He always slept in a cold room
and opened the window literally be-
fore retiring, without regard to the
temperature.
He was true to the modest candle
of his forefathers, believing that gas,
electric light, and other artificial
schemes Of illumination were de-
structive to the eyes. Up to the
time of his death he could read fine
print without glasses. In fact pair
of glasses never sat on his nose.
He never wore a piece of under
clothing Of any kind in all his life,
nor anything around his neck; nor did
he ever wear an Overcoat.
Last, but not least, he never had
on pair of socks in his life.
Mr.. 1ngraham was no miser. but a
generous, genial, and kindly man.

hundred thousand dollars, enjoyed
life, and died serenely happy, never

DEMOCRAT PENSION LECISLA-
TON.

A Washington correspondent sends
the following under date OF April 80
1892:
'The pension business is not booming
in the present house. 1t may be of some
interest to the.old soldiers to know some
of the great progress in pension legisla-
ton SO far in the do-nothing and anti
everything, business-like congress
In the pension committee 532 private
pension bills are found, and in the COM
mittee on invalid pensions, 1,679 similar
bills. The pension committee has re-
ported fifty bills, and the committee on
invalid pensions eighty eight bills. This
covers the number of bills introduced in
the house and the work of the COM
mittees.
1t will be understood that the work
has Just commenced whea committee
has reported on bill. The dangerous
period really commences when the bill
reaches the house the second time.
1t will probably be of interest to
know how many private pension bills
have passed the house. By unanimous
consent, three. This is all Just three
up to date. This was by unanimous
consent. secured by northern demo-
crat member who wanted to be able to
return to his district this fall and assure
his constituents that the democratic
party is a friend to the old soldier But,
two of these three bills passed were In
favor of Mexican war veterans and the
remaining one in favor of fellow who
was injured in an Indian war. So far,
not one claim passed upon in the house
which concerned Union soldier who
assisted in the late unpleasantness. This
is the record so far.
This correspondent called at the COM
mittee rooms and secured the data from
the committee clerks. He was assured
that the present management of the
pension business in this house was not
going to start to tnet insane asylum
over the pension question. The last
congress was viciously referred to as ex-
travagant in this line, and the country
could feel safe now. Everything would
be looked into carefully.
Following this looked into carefully"
assurance. it may be well to inject some
more facts. The house is supposed tc
lay aside on Friday nights the great
questions intimately connected with the
salvation Of the country and consider
pension cases only. 1t is referred to in
Boosting instructions that that great
house gives one evening in each and
every week to measure out solemn JUS
tice to the old soldiers. This is true,
but so far nothing but wind, buncombe
and hypocrisy has been measured out.
Not single private pension bill has
passed at these night sessions 30 far.
It would certainly be refreshing to
the old soldiers of the country il they
could all have seats in the gallery and
witness one of these night sessions The
old soldiers of Kansas should have re-
served seats down in front. They would
