pay y-rolI Of the city OF New y ork amounts
TO Sl7 100000 yearly, while the payroll of
the State is very large. The assessments
from these sources alone are greater than
the entire sum in possession of the Re-
publican National Committee. This was
supplemented by at least half million
dollars, which was raised by a few we'll
known Democrats. [ therefore don't
hesitate to claim, and certainly no we'll
informed Democrat viii deny, tnat the
Democratic committee is in possession of
p per cent. more funds Tor campaign
purposes than the Republican committee.
If Cleveland is kept in ignorance by
his party managers OF the existing con-
ditions IN order that he may make state
nents such as last night the Democratic
committee IS deceiving him, endeavoring
TO deceive the country, and should re-
celve, through public sentiments and its
popular expression at the polls, the pun
ishment which it deserves

HILL AT PORT JARVIS.
PoRT JARVIS (N. ", Nov. 2.-Senator
Hill spoke III the opera-hOuse this alter
noon. Representative Democrats were
present from the surrounding country.
senator Hill spoke in part as follows:
" Ihe question of Federal taxation is the
dominant issue OF the campaign. The
power TO levy taxes takes a despotic but
necessary power in every well organ
lzed Government. The Democratic party
believes in strict construction Oi the
Federal Constitution. The Republican
party is willing to confer every possible
power upon the Government; the Demo-
taHaru -.
strict constitutional limits. The kepub-
Ecans say taxes should be levied Tor
necessary expenses OF the Government.
There we agree with them. We believe
III tarlu for revenue, with incidental
protection. Tariffs which create unnec-
essary revenue are unconstitutional
II admit the first Congress enacted a
revenue bill with protection preamble.
Congress was coerced into the passage Of
the bill by the impOrtunitles OF selfish
Peunsy ylvania. Succeeding III recogniz-
ing the danger OF the precedent, and to
guard against future violations of the
Constitution of the same nature, there
was enacted an amendment providing
that ali powers not expressly granted the
General Government be reserved to the
States. All tariif bills passed since that
time were passed as revenue bills, with
out recital OF protective intent.
Let the Republicans be candid and
throw OFT al disguise, pass the bill solely
and expressly for protection. The cry
Tor protection is growing evil. ntil
recently, it has been deemed temporary
necessity to encourage infant Industries.
Now is the time for this to cease.
I'm all my travels | have not found a
man whose wages have been Increased
by the Mckinley bill. l challenge our
Republican friends to show a single
manufactured article on which duty
enough was not left by the Mills bill. We
represent the difference between Amer
can and foreign labor. The Democrats
propose not free trade, but moderate
tariff revision"
Hill made only a dried aIlusion to the
force bill.
THE COLORADO TICKET.
DENVER, Nov. 1.-The latest move in
the resignation of Weaver Electors from
the Cleveland ticket is the issuing OF am
order by Judge Miller in the County Court
to Clerk McGaf1ey, instructing him to re-
move the names of the Weaver men in
accordance with their request. AS the
ballots are now being printed. it looks as
though the Cleveland ticket would 90 in

OREGON DEMOCRATS.
PORTLAND, Nov. 2.-The question of
the withdrawal OF the Electoral ticket is
still being discussed at the Democratic
headquarters. The candidates, Nolan and
Butcher, are still firm in the determine
ton not to obey the request OF the Ma
tional and State Committees and with
draw. They are supported by the Tam
many Society. 1t is thought the final
outcome of the matter Will he that the
ticket will remain in the field, but that
the Central Committee will ask the Demo-
Gratis to disregard it and vote for the third
party candidates.
