We are forced to the conclusion that
the Ohio Republican League is doing
more injury to the Republican party in
this State than it has ever done good.
The organization is great thing, but it
can be carried too far When the organ
ization works for certain favorites and
not for the good of the party in general
then is its good effects lost. The League
hands off and work only for nominees.
When it takes hand to secure the
nomination of certain League favorites
then is it laying the foundation for its
downfall and for the injury of the party
in general.

If the protective tariff is rObber
tariff it naturally follows that its fore
most advocates must be persons most
benefited by its workings. Samuel J.
Randall. who was lifelong and per-
sistent advocate of protection, died so
poor that he had not enough to pay his
funeral expenses. William Mckinley,
after being in public life for twenty
wears. has accumulated fortune of only
$4,000. If they advocated a system
of robbery, why did they not share in
the plunder? The answer is that they
were honest men, and it certainly fol-
lows that men so honest could not ad-
yocate an economical system which is
not for the best interests of the people.
The personal record of these men is
the highest testimonial in favor of
protection.

TIE cotton growers of the South have
often made demands for the enactment
of a protective tariff on cotton, but it is
only recently that any southern Demo
cratic paper has demanded such protec-
ton. The News and Courier, of Charles
ton, comes out vigorously for fair de-
gree of protection for the cotton grower
The cotton of Egypt raised by uDcivil-
lied and ill paid industrial serfs, threat
ems to take the market from the cotton
growers of our own South. Hence the
demand by the organs of party that
yelled and shrieked bit few months
ago, ''the robber tariff" and would listen
to nothing that had the sound of protec-
ton. 1t makes vast difference whose
OK is gored.
