consolation in the assertion that

What is demanded in the correc

late tariff Determinations is such
a revision of that abortion as WI
bring the luxuries Of the rich and
not the necessities of the poor un.
der taxation. AS it is in England,
where revenues are raised by i'm
posing the burden on the poor, so
have the Democrats in the late
tariff revision attempted to relieve
the luxuries of the rich from i'm
port duties at the same time in
creasing the burden of tariff duties
on the ecessities Of the poor.
England is not a good example to
follow in this Instance.

The time for the Republicans OF
this Twelfth district to get into
harness is now. There should be a
perfect organization Of the party
in every county Of the thirty
seven which compose this district,
and that organization should see

OF every county good man,
worthy and we'll qualified, was ap-
pointed to look after affairs. This
is the only way to hold the ground
so CALAMITY won this campaign,
and won by the personal efforts of
the true protectionists of the rural
towns and districts who took of
their coats and put their shoulders
to the car. These men were host

look for the continuation OF the
work that is to assure a future tri-
