An Apt Argument.

Franklin MacVeagh possesses an
ability hitherto unknown among
campaign orators of saying new
things as well as saying old.things in
a new way. At Jacksonville he
pumped this at the congested intel
lects of his unofficial. volunteer OPP
ponents:
The manufacturers fight. plainly
stated, is to lower wages, while the
wOrkingman's fight is for higher
wages-but after all the wages are
raised by the workingmen them
selves, and they will never be raised
by any other agency in the country.
During the investigation of the re-
cent strike it was developed by the
testimony from both sides that no
railroad manager or capitalist any
where charged himself with the re-
sponsibility of raising wages, no
matter how much money was made
or how good the times were. Al
though the tariff went up no manu-.
facturer charged himself with the
responsibility of raising the wages.
The workingman must himself fight
for that. The protectionist duty
gives the workingman. as a matter OF
fact, no protection at all; it leaves
the protection manufacturer per-
fectly free to bring in from anywhere
in the world labor which is the
cheapest he can get, and that labor
completes with the labor here in
America. No custom-house defends
the workingman. The custom
houses defend the manufacturers.
1t was originally predicted tina,
MIR. MacNeagh in action would Sc,
the prairies aiire. We think Mr.
Cullom can already smell the smoke

CAVE. the st. Louis ministerial
ass, has been braying again. 1t will
be remembered that he first sprang
into prominence by his disloyal and
uncalled-for utterances in his Memo.
rial day speech at Richmond. He
spoke before the ex-Confederate His.
torical and Benevolent association at
st. Louis the other night. when some
of the sentiments he voiced were
that southern men were patriots as
well as those Of the north; that they
never surrendered the right to speak
the truth and to preserve the honor
and memory Of the gallant southern
dead; that southern man who holds
his peace and lets his father and
brother be branded as traitors is
worthy to stand side by side with
Judas Iscariot.

BUSINESS MEETS NO SETBACK,
Changes Under the New Tariff Less Impor
tant Than Was Expected.

Changes Under the New Tariff Less Impor.
tant Than Was Expected.
NEW YORK, Sept. I5.-R G. Dun's
weekly review of trade says: Business
has met no setback this week, and con-
t'nues larger than earlier in August and
larger than a year ago directly after the
panic. The country has now passed
nearly three weeks under the new tariff
and all admit that changes have been of
less importance as yet than was expected.
II IN some branches business has mater
Tally increased, it has gained little or has
fallen off in others. Loss in some direc-
lions is explained by crop reports, for the
most favorable estimates of experts put
the loss of corn at about 1905, OOO, 900
bushels.
Pork is unchanged, but lard lhas risen
80 cents per 100. The great increase in
iron production which was noted as fol-
lowing the removal of coke difficulties is
measured by the capacities of furnaces in
blast Sept. 1, namely Isl, liS tons, against
us, 356 Aug. ], and the unsold stocks also
decreased 3o SS4 tons during the month.
The output thus rises to so per cent of a
full production, but the consumption may
be less, as the main increase in output
was near the end of August and the prices
have since weakened little.
Strikes in cotton mills have not ceased
and stocks of print cloths shrink rapidly,
but some question whether recent ad-
vances in pr &c can be maintained with
important additions to the present force.
There is still n fair business for speedy
delivery in woolens and for cheaper grades
Of spring goods. Failures in the first week
of September as yet reported show liabili-
ties of only Sl,i30,010, of which s415, 100
were of manufacturing and S937 $50 of
trading concerns. The aggregate of
liabilities reported for August is : TO-
GO. ,5l3. This week the failures have
been 201 in the United States, against 3l4

The republican press is in an ecstasy
Of delight over the bolt Of the sugar
planters of Louisiana from the demo
cratic party. While these same
journals have up to the present Will
lied and abused the Louisiana plan
tiers in common with other southern
ers, they now refer to them as gen.
tlemen Of refinement and wealth, and
say they have been shamefully
treated by the democratic party.
The truth Of the matter is that the
Louisiana planters deserted the de-
mocracy simply because that party
refused TO legislate in faver Of the
''infant" sugar industry and give an
abnormal impetus to their business.
They wanted q bounty on every
pound Of sugar raised besides q pro-
