the tax on incomes derived from certain
corporate investments and the tax ON indi-
vidusl incomes which has passed the Demo-
cratic House and IL now before the Democratic
Senate.
When Mr.. Cleveland deliberately opened
the door for an income tax. he lot the whole
iniquity through. The responsibility for that
achievement is enough TO send any man to
the Dismal swamp.
The hope of preventing this hateful and fa-
tai legislation is slender at the present time;
yet hope has not altogether disappeared. II
Is la the power OF . few Domocratic Senators
by saying with fearlessness what they mean.
and by meaning what they say, TO make the
enactment of any income tax impossible.
The veto will not come from the White
House: there is absolutely no chance OF that.
The veto must come, II at all, from the Demo-
Gratis of the senate; from a few Of them; per-
haps primarily from one of them. Who Is the
Democrat who will say, "yeto! forbid?"

Additional tidings of Republican successes
in various parts Of the country point the doom
of Clevelandism and its supporters. and give
warning To Congress OF the condemnation that
awaits. In the North at least. the men who sus-
tain by their votes the Wilson bill scheme TO
destroy Northern industries and desolate
Northern homes. In the local elections held
on Monday in Maine the Republican candi-
dates were not only uniformly successful,
but In many instances were elected by in
creased majorities. The city of Portland
elected Republican Mayor by the
largest plurality 1t has cast in recent
years. The local elections in Iowa were
marked by a series Of sweeping Republican
victories The city OF Burlington, heretofore
citadel of Democracy, chose Republican
Mayor for the first time snce 1882,
overcoming an adverse majority Of
1000. In Darlington, Wis, where the
Democrats have been very strong. the Repub-
licans elected their entire ticket for the first
time in the history OF the place. Free trade
wreckcrs will strive in vain to make
the country believe that the unpre-
cedented and unbroken succession of
Republican triumphs since the advent Of
Clevelandism Is due TO local causes. Wher-
ever an election booth has opened the people
have rallied to the polls To condemn and re-
buke the Wilson bill and demand by their
votes that the infamous measure shall be de-
feated and rejected. Let Democratic Sena-
tors who have hopes OF the future hearken to
the warning from ballot boxes East and West.

GENERAL BLACKS ADMISSIONS.

General John G. Black in his speech
last night before the Rhode Island Busi-
ness Mems Association closed his re-
marks with the declaration that, 1--WE
want market bigger than
the American one, and we are not par
ticular about having the European one.
"What we produce in our manufac-
tories are produced in European coun-
tries. We want the great Indian mar
kets, the markets of China and of the
islands of the western seas. Great
Britain has spent her millions of money
to reach the Asiatic seas. There is the
market of the future. There is the
great prize for which the East can
struggle for the next decade. We be-
lieve that by the principles now being
worked out by the party at Washington
this result may be obtained for us"
1t is little astonishing TO hear a free
trader make such admissions, it would
have been more astonishing to have
heard him demonstrate how free trade
was going to aid us in succeeding in the
program he outlined. Why does Cen
eral Black cast sleeps eyes at China and
the islands of the western seas, when
close at hand, almost at our very doors.
stand millions Of people whose trade we
want and whose goods we must have,
whose trade he ignores?
The people in Rhode Island. are in
favor of protection. The State is a
manufacturing State and under the pro-
tective system it has assumed a size in
commercial importance far beyond that
which its area would warrant or enable
1t to attain through the pursuit of any
other occupation, Were the mills closed
down. manufacturing abandoned and
the people compelled to rely upon hus-
bandry the importance of the State
would dwindle aud fade until it assumed
value perceptible only under the
microscope, and its thousands of popu-
lation would be forced to migrate be-
cause of the States inability to furnish
them with the necessaries of life.
The abandonment, therefore, of a
policy which has encouraged
manufacturing industries and
fostered them until they have
placed the state in the lead among the
a States Of this Union, is serious mat
ter to the people Of Rhode Island and
when a man comes among us and advo-

Hon. JOHN G. BLACK says Chicago is
the child Of free trade. OF course it is
So is every city in this vast country of
ours. We are the greatest free trade
nation in the world for there is
absolute freedom of trade between
all the states and volume of business
covering territory that is unparalleled
in the world, largely due to the fact
that this whole magnificent commercial
union is protected from the foreign
peddlers.

SOME FROZEN FACTS.
We're in the Saddle and Propose
to Ride Hard.
An Old Southerner Replies to Hewitt's
Criticism Of Southern Statesmen-No
Corns ON His Brains Anyway.

Today met In Southern train Judge Lee
of Georgia, most charming gentleman OF
the ante-war school. The Judge was reading
Mayor Hewitt's speech. As he finished the
last word he handed The Constitution to Dr.
Shelly, saying:
doc. jes read what that old Yankee, Abe
Hewitt, seq about usl sez we Soth'ners hain't
got brains! Why, Doc. we've got brains 'nough
TO capture this Government"
"Yes." said tho Doctor, 1--WE had sense
enough to vote ourselves into power. while
Abe Hewitt's Yankee Democrats voted them
selves out. wonderif If 1t occurs to those YAM
KEGS up there that We Southeners are OF top
just now-that we are running Congress?"
And that we are the nation today" con-
tinued the Judge. "while the Yankees are only
colony. Why. our brainy Southern states
men have made q low tariff for Massachusetts,
and Pennsylvania, put It through the House,
and what Yankee has dared to stop us? Amos
Cummings kicked, but we Southerners
whipped the rest in. Then we've got IL
through the Senate. too, and only Colonel
Brice, German, Hill, and one sugar renegade
from Louisiana have dared to ask question,
l tell you brains tell, and our Southern men
are running all over the Yankees. We've got
about 10, 100000 people out of the 650OOO00. but
we are sailing the ship. We know how to
manage, we do"
"You get big representation in Congress.
Judge" suggested.
"why, yes, and Hewitt's Yankees gave it to
us. 1t was Yankee votes that allowed 10000
Southern voters to make Congressman in
Mississippi and Louisiana. while 1t takes l25.-
oO0 votes in Abe Hcwitt's district. Why.
we've got one district In Georgia where 24UOO
smart Southern white men make Congress-
man. The fact Is, our Southern statesmen
have got brains enough TO run the South and
whip in enough Yankees to capture the North
and run that, too. Abe Hewitt talking about
brains Why, the old Yankee has got corns
ON his brains and chilblains on his heart,

Brown Alumni Dinner.

The project of inviting ladies to listen
to the after-dinner speeches at the Brown
alumni meeting Friday evening had to be
abandoned. The attendance of the
alumni will be large and there will be no
room to accommodate lady friends, and
the desire of the committee will have to
be given up.
Among the topics to be discussed are the
relations of a college to the State and
community in which IL is situated. What
college ought to do for the special needs
OF such community" "Why, in return, IL
ought to be heartily supported by the
state and city in which 1t stands" "Re-
suits to be expected from such mutual
heIpfulnes." Something will also prob
ably be said about the woman's annex
and University Extension.

only be able to retain our home markets,
the markets Of 65,000.000 of the best
paid working people en- the sace of the
| globe. but also secure the market which
he declares we ought to control in the
| Orient.
How will it help Us to secure other
markets, this abandonment Of our own?
When we throw down the protective
wall against the products of the cheap
labor of the free trade countries and
invite their competition, we open TO them,
but not TO ourselves, a new market.
They can then sell their goods aud find
market which has no equal, while we
are chasing the delusive phantom of
the ''markets of the world"
How is it possible by strengthening
rival. to increase our own chances of
success?
General Black is an honest man, and
he unquestionably believes that his
theory is destined to benefit this coun-
try. He is brave man, loyal man
and would gladly lay down his life for
the nation for whose preservation he
shed his blood during the great civil
war. AS soldier he would
never have allowed an armed
body Of his opponents to walk
into his camp and occupy fully as freely
as himself the points of vantage in the
hope of defeating them in the struggle
for the supremacy. Yet what he would
not do in war he wants to do in COM
merce. He wants to give our opponents,
armed with weapons we do not and
cannot possess, unless we reduce labor to
the condition of the pauper labor of
Europe, equal advantages with ourselves
In our own markets.
He wants an enlarged market, and yet
General Black was one of the Con-
gressmen who voted to wipe the reci-
procity clauses of the Mckinley tariff
bill out of existence.
Free trade means the abandonment of
our own markets in the vain hope of
securing other and less valuable ones.
Mr.. Blaine when he enunciated his
policy of reciprocity pointed out
way to gain the advantages of an in
creased foreign market while retaining
our home markets He believed, as does
General Black, that attempting to obtain
control of English, French and German
markets for our manufactured goods
carrying Goals to Newcastle-was
foolish. The natural markets for us are
with non-manufacturing nations; with
nations which produce things we need,
but cannot produce, owing to our
climatic conditions, and which need our
manufactured goods, our cereals and our
machinery. Under reciprocity our
trade with the South and Central
American States doubled and trebled,
yet the Democrats have thrown away
these markets, abandoned reciprocity
and are seeking free trade with manu-
featuring nations. Under reciprocity
we could have won the trade of the
Orient as we were winning the trade of
the Southern nations and yet have
retained our own markets. Under
free trade we invite competition in our
own markets, abandoning them to the
extent of the importations that come
here under free trade, and attempt to
secure the trade of other nations while
fighting to keep our own.
