higher they are the more it is alleged
they will tend to discourage an extrava-
CANT consumption, TO produce a favor
able balance of trade, and to promote
domestic manufactures. But all ex-
tremes are pernicious in various ways.
Exorbtant duties on imported articles
would beget a general spirit of Snug
Cling, which is always prejudicial TO the
fair trader. and eventually TO the revenue
itself. They tend to render other classes
of the community tributary in an improp-
er degree to the manufacturing classes
TO whom they give premature monopoly
of the markets. They sometimes force
industry out of it's more natural chan
nels into others in which it flows with
less advantage, and in the last place
they oppress the merchant. who is often
obliged TO pay them himself without any
retribution from the consumer"
These would be crushing blows to a
respectable party. The fact that Judge
Harrison cannot stay in the party be-
cause its local sins in Connecticut are so
offensive and because its national policy
is dangerous as a precedent, and in vio-
lation Of the Federal constitution, 8"
should make wise or even a calm man
stop to consider whittier we are drifting.
Any man of intelligence in the Republi-
can IartY should awake to his duty
when Judge Harrison quotes from
the highest Republican au-
thority ON the protective tariff,
Alexander Hamilton, the great Federal
list, that "exorbtant duties =
tend TO render other classes of the COM
munity tributary in an improper degree
to the manufacturing classes, to whom
they give a premature monopoly of the
markets.

LIE lNrENr EXPOSED.

There can be no doubt now, in the
mind of any candid or intelligent man,
that the Higgins machine means to
carry Delaware; there must be even less
doubt that the machine means to carry
it by fraud.
As in their own primaries the Browns
were whipped and intimidated; as
Philip r Clarke was cheated and counted
out for Joe Martin; as Buckingham. Jolls
and others were cheated and counted
out for other Offices so the machine ex
poets TO cheat and defraud the Democrats
at the polls.
It is impossible for any man, no mat
ter how amiably foolish he may be. if he
has wit enough to put two and two
together TO make four, he cannot come
to any other conclusion. from the evi.
dences of the Higgins Smith and Smith
Willis scandals, than that the intent Of
the Higgins machine is to carry Della
ware by fraud.
The series of events which have led to
those scandals is precisely the series Of
events which any sensible man knew
must follow the success Of Higgins over
Massey at Dover, the appointments of
Bach, Mahahy, Stewart, Macallister and
such persons TO undertake the political
manipulation of the negro votes and the
purchase of the editors, or of their pa
pers, to defend and apologize for the
acts of these men.
No candid man, no intelligent man,
no man who is honest with himself, can
fail TO perceive that the intent of the
machine which Senator Higgins has set
up is to defraud and bribe and cheat
and bulldoze the voters of Delaware.
Democrats are forewarned They
have no reason for cringiug to Mr.
Higgins; they have no reason foi
trying to defend him and the Smith.
and preacher Willis from the scandals
they have brought on their party; they
have no reason for shutting their eyes
to the intent of the party which has beer
plain ever since Higgins came into the
management of it. They should acf

last evening. The attendance was not
as large as was expected John G. Baker
presided. He made few predatory re-
marks upon the tariff and accused Hon.
Charles b. Lore of telling an untruth

their speeches being, in the main, argu-
mentative and devoid of abuse
The Democratic and Republican Chair
man of state and county committees
have begun giving out their estimates of
Democratic and Republican majorities.
These estimates are always amusing be-
cause there is such a difference in the
figures. The newspaper man who goes
to political headquarters and expects
party leaders to open their books and
give true estimates for publication has
more credulity than Senator Higgins had
in Laurel. An enterprising morning
paper reporter writes almost a column of
interviews which may be boiled down to
the following Chairman Wilson, of the
Republican State Central Committee,
claims the state by 500 majority on the
electoral ticket, two of the three counties
and the United States senator Martin
b. Burris, chairman of the Republican
county executive committee claims
New Castle countys by safe
majority. He says that the lower
counties will be very close Chairman
Handy of the Democratic State Central
Committee claims Sussex by from 500 TO
800; Kent by 600; rural New Castle, $50
and Wilmington slightly Democratic.
He claims the state by from I 500 to 2000.
Willard Salisbury, chairman of the
Democratic County Executive Committee
claims the state by 200 majority, and
a small majority in New Castle county,
where the negro vote has been cut down
800 TO 1, 900 below their claims. Victor
b. Woolley claims New Castle county by
at least 400 majority for the Democrats.

cut, a man of ability and unimpeachable
character says;
In 1890 l considered the Mckinley
Tariff bill wrong because it seemed TO be
constructed upon the theory OF protec.

British lion which is peacefully reposing
beside the little American industry

lion is fatter and only the bones Of the
lamb are visible. The protec ton
ist Misrepresentation which makes
the lion bigger than the lamb
is on par with the crank or
the fool who can conceive that the
English can sell goods here at a profit
without buying goods we make also at
profit TO pay for them. That is trade
we would get better goods at lower
prices and sell our goods at higher prices
The only man hurt by that sort of com
merce is the man who makes shoddy or

tected home market for all wool or su-
perior goods at higher prices

JUDGE GRESHAM says Republican
can vote for Cleveland without joining
the Democratic party and that is pre-
cisely what he proposes to do. Concern
ing the issues he says:
Republicans were pledged to a reduc.
tion of the war tariff long before 1888,
and during the campaign of that year the
pledge was renewed with emphasis again
and again. Instead of keeping that
promise the Mckinley bill was passed
imposing still higher duties Il was
passed in the interest of favored classes,
and not for the benefit of the whole peo.
pie. IL neither enhanced the price of
farm products nor benefited labor.
Wages are and ever win be regulated by
supply and demand Duties were i'm
posed upon some articles so high as TO
destroy competition and foster trusts and
monopolies.
Jay Gould, OF course, and Carnegie and
Frick do not agree with Judge Gresham
on those little points and they, of course,
are steadily and patriotically supporting
Harrison, McKinleyism and protection
for the benefit of the American working
men. But there are great many wise,
honest and disinterested men who be-
lieve that Judge Gresham is right If he is
not as rich as Gould, as hypocritical as
Carnegie, or as vulgar and brutal as
Frick.

General James II. Wilson, chairman
of the Republican State Central commit
tee, has become the apologist of Senator
Higgins and Rev. Jonathan s. Willis, the
two men who stand accused. under afi-
davit, of trying to bribe Democratic Off
cials. He says
The stories they have gotten up in re-
lation to Senator Higgins and Mr Willis
are an indication of the desperate straits
TO which the Democrats are driven. No
fair minded man believes that Mr.. Hig-
gins had any other motive than TO en-
courage Wootten and his following to
join the Republican party
II the witty general had said that
Wootten was encouraged with bribe he
would have had some right. Mr.. Smith
walked into the room on the night of
October and told Major Wootten, in the
presence of Senator Higgins that they
wanted him to be voters assistant.
Postmaster Smith told Senator Higgins
in Wootten's presence, that he was Dem
ocratic registrar in the Eastern district
of Little Creek hundred. II has been
suggested that when the senator tries to
make another deal he should leave his
ears and his knowing wink at home.
These things are sworn to and Mr.. VIII
sons explanation of something he knows
nothing about will not avail. If Senator
Higgins or Me Too Smith will swear tC
the explanations which have been made
for them by others they will be arrested

Of that outrage. John p. Sutton of Lin
coin, Neb. for many years, under Presi-
dent Fitzgerald, secretary of the Irish
National League, and always an ardent
Republican, has written and made
public letter in which he gives
the reasons that have caused him
to change his political faith. Mr..
Sutton is widely known among Irish
Americans as one who devoted himself
to the cause of the National league from
patriotic, not commercial reasons. The
effectiveness Of the league has been
largely due to his work. He is man OF
the highest integrity, possessing all the
respect and confidence of his country.

''that such bill should emanate from
Dublin Castle for the coercion Of the
Irish people would not be matter OF
much surprise, but the fact that it should
have been submitted to an American con
gress by Americans for the persecution
of white Americans and the subversior
of state autonomy is a solemn warning
not to again intrust the National govern
ment into the hands of men capable o
devising such high-handed unconstitu
