generally for free trade. Thus the majority
of a million given against the Mckinley
tariff in 1890 was increased TO nearly mil
lion and half in 1892 on the appeal 10 the
sober second thought of the Republic.
Evil times came upon the land, largely
aided by the excessive taxation for the bene.
fit Of the few under the Mckinley bill, and
by the financial policy Of the Harrison
administration that seriously impaired our
credit abroad, forced our own securities up
on our own market, drained our country OF
gold, paraized industry, destroyed conf
dence and brought panic into every bust
ness channel This was the legacy that
Harrison, Reed and Mckinley left for Presi
dent Cleveland, and now, when industrial
and business disturbance is liable 10 pro.
duce political revolution, as it always does
against the party that happens to be in
power whether responsible or not, the three
men who gave the country the foundation
of financial and tariff disturbance are
stumping the country charging the results
of their own policy upon the party that was
powerless when the causes were created
and each hopes 10 ride into the Presidency
on the tide of business misfortune wrought
by their own efforts.

THE LEGACY LEFT BY HARRISON,
Mckinley AND REED.

The Republicans of Pennsylvania have
evidently ignored exPresident Harrison,
though he is bird of their flock, whilst
Mckinley and Reed are given front seats as
party champions to share the laurels which
they proclaim they will reap in the next
presidential election.
The three men who forced the abhorrent
Mckinley bill upon the country 10 1890
were President Harrison, Speaker Reed, and
Mckinley, the Chairman of the Ways and
Means Committee. They acted in concert,
stood shoulder to shoulder and coerced the
party's acceptance OF the measure when
not single member Of Congress, as far as
yet reported, believed il was right. They
went TO the country on the new issue, mis-
called protection, and were beaten round
million by the nation.
la 1892 they insisted the people did not
understand the Mckinley bill, when ma.
ioriiy of million had been rolled up against
them, and they appealed TO the sober second
thought of the country. The result was
that, on direct issue between the Repub-
licans and Democrats, they, the Republicans,
were beaten nearly half million, with
full million of Populist votes largely drawn
from the Republican party, whose political
faith was not only for tariff reform, but very

TO DIVIDE THE iSPOIL.S

The very air is now full OF stories of war,
of International disagreement, of diplomacy
and efforts at aggrandizement by rival pow.
ers, and while all this unrest does not di
rectly affect us, We naturally feel more than
passing interest in the outcome. There
is no doubt danger to the world in that
when the war between Japan and China is
ended the conflicting interests OF England,
France, Russia and Japan may create fresh
complications.
Already England is sending troops from
India to protect Europeans in Chinese coast
cities, and the British feet in the waters of
China, which is already large, is to be
strengthened. The Russian fleet will also
be a formidable one, while that of France
in the East is 10 be reinforced. France
seems to fear that England will demand
Formosa in return for preventing Russia
from acquiring territory south of Viadivos
took, and, in such case, France would want
some possession adjacent to Tonquin.
1t is useless for these powers to declare that
they are trying to prevent any undue action
on the part of Japan, If she should, as now
seems likely, accomplish the defeat of China.
When Germany, at the close OF the Franco.
Prussian war, had William crowned as EN-
peror in the ball of Kings at Versailles and
an indemnity was exacted from the French
people so enormous that II might have been
thought payment was impossible, the rest
of Europe did not interfere or protest The
war now being waged on Japan's part is as
civilized as that which ended at Sedan, and
Japan has shown, both in peace and war,
that she has right to recognition as part
of civilization. 1t is scarcely probable that
when her victory comes she will do more
than exact an indemnity from China and
the full independence of Corea, and all that
is being said as to the danger of her insti.
tuting anarchy and disturbing commerce
is simply an excuse for being ready to share
in division of the spoils when the end Of
the conflict comes.

DEMOCRATIC TICKET.
MIR. WILLIAMS CANVASS.

Mr. Ferdinand Williams, the Democratic
candidate for Congress, closed his canvass
in this county on Monday night last, al
Potomac
We cannot now recall the name of any
public man who has ever made, in 80 short
time, greater impression, or who was
ever more cordially, earnestly and sincerely
received by our people throughout the coun
ty than Mr.. Williams. Almost a perfect
stranger when he came into our midst, he
leaves US with his name syllabled by the
tongues of all with whom he came in con.
tact, or those who had the very rare pleas
ure of hearing his plain, dignitied and able
exposition OF those measures now agitating
the country, and in which the people are so
deeply Interested. From all parts of the
county we have the most gratifying and
encouraging reports of the able and con.
vlncing arguments he made, the thought he
awakened, and the enthusiasm he aroused.
And we have been further assured that Mr..
Williams speeches have had the effect of
not only awakening our people up 10 the
great emergency of the hour, but they have
dspelled whatever even of indifference and
apathy that may have existed-sent new
life into the Democratic columns which
must and will result in Montgomery giving
one Of her old-time Democratic majorities.

SHERMAN ON HIGH TARIFF

Senator John Sherman, one of the ablest
and oldest leaders Of the Republican party
in the country, in speech at Akron, Ohio,
few days ago, used the following words
in relation TO the tariff:
II am not now and never was an extreme
protectionst. believe that sufficient duties
on imported goods can be and ought to be
levied to pay ordinary expenses of the gov.
eminent in times of peace. No duties should
be levied for protection that are not needed
for revenue. These duties should be levied
SO far as practicable, on articles that come
into competition with home industries
Other taxes, excuses, including income taxes,
should be levied only for extraordinary ex
penses incurred in war or other great strin.
gency. Taxes on articles that we cannot
produce, such as tea, coffee and spices,
should only be imposed when necessary to
meet exigencics.
"All duties and taxes should be so ar.
ranged in schedules as that the revenues can
be raised or lowered by schedules without
a revision of the whole tariff
II believe that these simple, just and ad.
tquate rules would remove the tariff from
party struggles and leave the States, coun.
ties and municipalities of our country the
broad field of direct taxes necessary for
local self government"
The above remarks are cordially recon-
mended to the prayerful consideration of
Mr. Wellington and his high protectionist
followers in this county
