What the Foreigners Desire.
lluter ocean,


The hope of Europe Is that Cleve-
land will be elected President AID
that he will be supported by a
Democratic Congress. The wish is
father to the thought, and the wish
is that by the breaking down of
American industries through the
agency of free trade legislation this
country again may become com
merieal dependency Of Europe.
In order that our readers may
know what European opinion is, and
what results Europe expects from
Democratic success in the November
election, We make a few quotations
from foreign newspapers,
kuhow's German Trade Review
of July 20, 1892, says:
Il is thought that the votes OF the electors viii
shortly destroy McKinley's work in the immense
Transatlantic Union, viii dispense with the
password Of america for Americans" and, by
giving a splendid victory to the Democratic
party, viii open free path 70 our export trade.
These are the hopes which have reused So much
interest throug hout saxony in the result of the
next election for the President of the United
states. Articles which are cheap in price bu,
very largely consumed can not be produced so
cheaply in the United States as in Germany,
owing to the high price Of wages
The Partisan Journal des Debats
says:
The Democratic convention ought to be con
graduated upon its choice. Everything prom.
Uses Thar Cleveland VIII be elected. His opposi
ton TO extreme protection makes as hope that
he vIl succeed.
The London Globe writes:
From the English stand point the contest takes
on fresh interest by the bold adoption by the
Chicago convention Of a frank free trade pro.
gram. Whether the new departure viii gain or
lose votes remains TO be seen.
The Liverpool Journal Of Com
MERGE declares that;
The Democratic party in the S ates may rest
assured that If English sympathy could carry
Grover Cleveland in November the White House
would be theirs We shall watch tho develop
meut % the struggle with the keenest interest
and even IL the triumph be not attained all az
once there is indeed reason for Congratulation,
that one OF the great American parties has made
free trade, pure and simple, the battle cry Of
the future.
The London Times, "the thunder
er" among British journals, said on
the goth day of last month:
Undoubtedly our interests as a trading com.
munity must make us wish success to the Demo. [

We might quote articles in like |
vein from London Engineering, the /
London Graphic, and the London /
Evening News and Posts, but
enough may be learned from the
extracts which we have given to
convince any unbiased person that
the hopes and expectation of Europe
are that 10y "a splendid Democratic
