THE WORKING MANS VOTE.

Pile, which they manifest on any and
all occasions Especially on legislation)
promise protection to the workingmen
of the county who might be CO creed
by their employers at the election.
Before going into further discussion
of this question We would like to ask if
there are any workingmen now? We
we're laboring under the impression
that the present administration had re-
lieved our people. or large majority of
them, from work and that workingmen
were not known. Yes, playing the
old role of friend to the workingmeni
Sweeping the country in 1892 on a
platform declaring protection a rob-
berry and fraud! Swearing its un.
dying friendship to the laboring people
Of the country! Hurting anathamas
at the manufactures and trustsl Now
what have they accomplished for the
workingman? What solitary piece of
legislation has been enacted for him?
What is the fruit of the first year of
Democrat administration Idle en-
ploYes, silent factories, mills and forges.
Discomfort every where. The greatest
financial depression the country has
known for years and the greatest strike
in the history of the country.
Certainly the Democrat party is al
ways looking after the interests of the
workingmen-protecting them even
from work.
Now, Gentlemen of the Democrat
County Committee you need not worry
about the workingmen of this county
being co-erced by their employers into
voting the Democrat ticket. Your
party has already done the CO ercing by
its conduct since it came into power,
you have driven the workingmen who
were not Republicans before, to US by
your actions. The workingmen know
how to vote and they to not need any
of those high sounding prcclamatlons
to tell them what to do-they know
and you will know in November.

WASHINGTON LETTER.

WASHINGTON. July Both, 1884,
The. free traders publicly bluster
quite as loudly as they did week ago,
as to the House conferees holding out
for free raw materials until the Sen
tors are compelled to surrender, but
their private talk and acting tells an
other story. Mr.. Cleveland has dis
covered that he could not dictate to
the Democratic Senators in matters
affecting the welfare of thousands Of
citizens of the States they represent,
and he is said to deeply regret that he
allowed the advice of Don Dickinson,
the Michigan rainbow chaser to out
weigh that of Secretary Carlisle, who
advised him not to send that letter.
He hasn't changed his mind about free
coal for the benefit of the Whitney
syndicate; free iron for the Carnagie
crowd, and protection for the sugar
trust, but he has found out that he
went the wrong way to get this unique
combination of tariff reform. He
wants them as bad as ever, and some
say he is willing to see all tariff legis-
lation fail rather than not to get them,
but he regrets having jumped on those
who know how and do not hesitate to
fight back.
The Democratic conferees spent all
all day Saturday and sunday in trying
to patch up the differences between
the House and Senate, but as no salts
factory answer yet has been found to the
ultimatum of the Senators-'take the
bill as it is or you'll get nothing''-the
status is unchanged. Some Of the
shrewdest observers are con-
vinced that victory for the Senate
bill is assured, and that the time of the
Democratic bosses is now principally
taken up with arranging a series of
more or less confusing changes in the
bill, which shall make it seem that con-
cessions we're made ON both sides, or
as one man puts il: Finding a soft
place for Cleveland to fall on.,' The
House conferees are individually will
ing to hold out against the Senate, but
the Democrats Of the house generally
are not willing to keep up the fight and
they have plainly shown their disincli-
nation to fight Mr.. Cleveland's battle
for him.
Secretaries Gresham and Carlisle are
doing their best to defeat the bill which
provides that Immigrants shall be in
spected by United States Consuls, be-
fore being allowed to start for this
country, and which was recently passed
by the House and is now before the
Senate Immigration Committee. The
principal ground for their opposition,
according to their chief spokesman,
Mr.. Stump, United States Commis-
sioner Of immigration, is that the bill,
If IL become law. would stop all inn
migration. That argument win hardly

Mr.. Cleveland seems to have little
difficulty in controlling the actions Of
Democratic members of the House.
the other day the Democratic members
Of the House committee on commerce
were insisting upon the necessity for
the adoption of the resolution author
izing that committee to make an
investigation Of the recent strikes, be-
cause they did not consider the law un-
der which Mr.. Cleveland appointed the
investigating commission broad enough
to furnish the necessary authority. Mr..
Cleveland gave the chairman of that
committee hint that he thought one
investigation enough, and straightway
the Democrats on the committee began
to talk about the elashing that would
be caused by two Investigations and to
indicate very plainly that the resolution
was dead. Mr.. Cleveland would
doubtless be willing to pay largely for a
receipt that would enable him to con-
troll the Senators as easily.
No finer bit of sarcasm was ever got
off on the floor Of the Senate, than
when Senator Manderson sent fan to

cuses. He certainly must have felt
like hiding his face when he voted for
the sugar trust after having posed be-
fore the country as one of its most de-
termined opponents. Senator Stewards
refusal to vote prevented the striking
out of the differental duty.
The Senate Investigating Committee
is at standstill because of its ina
bility to get hold of one Battershall, a
man who is said to have taken the
orders of Senators for the purchase of
sugar trust stock. AS soon as Batter
shall fund out that he was wanted
and ascertained that he would be made
to tell all he knew or 60 to Jail, he
took himself out of the country; at any
rate he cannot be found, and rumor
says he was supplied with money
enough, by those who would be in
jured by his testimony, to make his
trip long and pleasant one.
