Democrats Must Not uanH too Heavy
oo garry ing RepnsIicnn states.

Tho Brooklyn Eagle, in n recent
editorial, warns the Democrats
not TO adopt the rainbow policy
of 1888, 10y seeking new fields of
conquest, but says the safer way
is TO make sure of New York, Con.
necticut and Indiana. AS il con.
tains some solid advice on the
subject, we reproduce the Eagles
views:
"The State of New York is the
key TO the Presidential contest.
No speculation about other States
can alter that vital fact. There is
no particular harm in calculating
on what may be accomplished 10y

in them for the Democrats would
be achievement of the unexpect.

OF the Democratic party, occasion

~ the United States has come to
accept as true these erroneous
CONCLUSIONS. The assertion that a
protective tariff maintains high
! wages, is without rOunoltIon In
fact. Harpers Weekly, witch has
given the subject exhaustive in.
vestigation, reaches the following
conclusion, which we cOmBend to
the thoughtful consideration of,
every workingman:
THE workingmen have only to
look at the rate of wagesin the
different countries of the world TO |
satisfy themselves that higl wages
are not caused by a high protect |
i've tariff, and that low VICES are
not caused by the absence of a
high tarin. We are constantly |
told, when comparing American |
wages with English wages, that
wages In the United States are
much higher than wages n Eng.
land because we are blessed with
a protective system while England
is not. But il ia notorious fact
that wages in free trade England
eange much higher than wages In
Germany aud in other European
countries blessed with a protect.
i've tariff. Now, IL in one high
tariff country wages are higher
than in one free trade country
aud If at the same time wages in
that free trade country are higher
than in several high tariff coun.
lries, then il cannot possibly be
that the high tariff makes a high
rate OF wages and the absence of
The tariff a low one.
IL the wOrkingman pursues his
inquiries further he will find that
Turing that famous period when
he United States had n low tariff.
rom 1915 to 1861, wages here we're
much higher than those in any
country, as they now
ire, aud that during that low tariff
period they were steadily rising.
lie will find that wages in this
country have always been higher

A man welded to a craze becomes sin
gularly obtuse to objections against his
hobby. Thus, Representative Blan d.
combating the charge that the free coin
age Of silver would enable foreigner to
bring a ship.load OF silver here have It
re-colned free at the mint, and exchange
1t for gold at a great profit, says;
The shipload of silver brought to our
mints by tha foreigner would be coined
into standard dollars, aud these dollars
returned to him but be could not 60 to
our Treasury and demand gold for them
nor can he compel one Of our citizens to
swap him gold dollar for silver dol
lar. II the American citizen gives him
a gold dollar for silver dollar, that is a
voluntary trade that no law ought to in
terfere with.
There are many other things which the
foreigner may not do but 1t is curious
that Mr.. Bland did not mention aud
combat the things he could do; one Of
which is: ne could sell his silver dol
lars at a discount.
The shipload Of silver dollars would
not be worth more in Europe. but the
foreigner would gladly dispose Of them
here at 75 cents on the dollar. There
would be thousands OF speculators
ready to buy them, because, being legS
tender here, they could be used to pay
debts at heavy discount which we're on
tracted at par in gold. A man who owed
81 600 could buy the foreigners silvol
and pay his debt with silver coin which
cost him, say, $3.50.
Under these conditions silver would b
kept at price little above its vslu'
elsewhere and be used to pay debts
which did not contain 4 special provis'
for payment in gold. The United States
Government could not control tn
price of silver In England o
France any better than it controls
the price Of wheat and cotton. II silve
could be pro6tably used here to pay gol
debts It would be imported. and the pric
Of it would be regulated by the laws O
the trade, by the supply and demand. q
the prices Of wheat and cotton are reg,
lated, not by the governments STAN
on IL.
The proposition Of Mr. Bland is
effect the same proposition with whic
the green goods man" deoeives q
hayssed. BE proposes to exchange S7I
worth Of white goods for $1,000. n

IN referring to the trip OF Senator Hill
through the South and in equipping him
with imaginary views concerning the
status and Intelligence of the negroes the
philadelphia Press says that the opinion
that they are only "a little more intelli-

ored people. These know that 3 race that

law from educating itself has in these

OF course that is partisan and unfair, be-
cause 1t suits the exigencies Of Republi-

paper, or any intelligent man, who has

the negro has been prevented by law
from educating" himself. He is not pre-
vented by any law, except the law Of his
being, which also prevents him from edu-
eating himself in Congo and Ethiopia.
The writer, who takes that view Of the
effects Of slavery on the negro Is
incompetent to take fair or correct
view Of him, at any time, under any cir
cumstances. He might have been left to
himself a thousand years, as he has been,
aud he could never have educated or ele-
waited himself as he was elevated by
slavery. BE is advancing rapidly now
