Why Don't They?

as soon as they look at the question
on the side of Freedom, they are
easily won over, for who, more than
the colored people, realize what the
word Freedom means to them!
Now, some one who can make a
GOOD little speech, see to this with
out delay that our colored brother
and sister be called to reason to-
gether on this subject. | would do
it myself if l could make speech
as well as those who wear the larg'
ost kind of clothes. find the one
greatest mistake of these people is
in thinking the Republican party
was the only agency that brought
around and solved so great a prob
lem in their lives. But, the Repub
lican party was only the instrument
that was used to carry out the plan
that had already been LAID. Tha

grand old book, Uncle Toms Cabin,
was the chief cornerstone that
brought about freedom for our col
ored brother. And who was the
author of Uncle Toms Cabin =? One
Harriet Beecher Stowe, who was
nothing more nor less than woman,
with a woman's heart and soul
with heart that yearned for every
black mother and child as her own,
and her prayers and her thoughts
reached the Throne Of Glory, where
in dwelleth Glory to God in the
Highest ! On Earth, Peace and
Good Will to Men And the
thought reached back to grand old
Mother Earth, and Abraham Lincoln
was raised up to speak the words
and sign the document that brought
equal rights to all men, black or
VIII tie, bond or free. SO it comes
about that our colored brothers are
as largely indebted to their white
sisters as to the Republican party
for the freedom they enjoy to-day,
and l bglieve that every colored
voter in Anderson county will cast
ballot this fall for the enfranchise-
ment of women who have been SO
instrumental in giving them their
freedom. How much more will you
enjoy Emancipation day when you
know you have been instrumental
in bringing about Emancipation day
for your wives, daughters and sis
tiers. l tell you, my brother, when
women are given the right of fran
chise, we will have barbecue-one
whose voice shall reach high Heav
eli, and the peal of joy shall ring
again the bells of Freedom. Ring
on, ring on, old bells, ring on
Ring out the false, ring in the true
Ring out the old, ring in the new.

THE SPEECH
OF Miss Annie Hamb!in Peaks Upon the Tariff
at Wellesley.

The influence of woman in politics has
come to mean much. Its strength has in
creased wonderfully of late. This is due
we believe to the evidences which women
throughout the country have been recently
giving of their intelligent information on
political questions. If they haven't as yet
the right of suffrage they propose to have
the qualifications.
We have before alluded to the interest.
ing tariff debate in Wellesley College last
March. The information which these young
ladies evinced concerning the tariff, would
we venture to assert, compare most ia.
vorably with any which might be found
in the college debating club with male mem.
bership exclusively.
In this connection we wish to call oul
readers attention TO the able argument pre-.
sented by Miss Annie Hamblin Peaks
daughter of Hon. J. B. Peaks of Dover
Me. Miss Peaks spoke as follows:
Mr. President This question of tariff
is not new one; combining ourselves to oul
own country, it is as old as the government
itself. But from the beginning, there have
been differences of opinion as to the rela
tive advantages and disadvantages to thu
United States, of free trade with othel
nations, and of protective tariff whereby
duties shall be placed upon certain articles
imported from other countries. There arr
always two sides to every question. Let u.
now consider some of the reasons why W,
are IN favor of a protective tariff for thu
United States as opposed to free trade.
This is pre-eminently an age of philan
thIopy. On all sides we see charitable indi
viduals and charitable organizations plan
ling and trying means to better the condi
ton of the poor and laboring classes. II
this is worthy of the individual, it must b.
worthy of the nation, which is the whole
made up of the individual parts. 1 thinl
all will agree to this, but the disagreement
comes in considering ways and means. Lee
US now look at it along the line of a pro
tectiye policy. rs e
In comparing our own laboring classe.
with those of other nations, We find the
American nottingham much better off thar
the Nottingham Of any other country. He
has better wages, a more comfortable home
and happier family than his foreign fellow

The Maine Republican Platform.

The Republican party of Maine invite all the
people of the State who are in accord with the
principles of the following platform to unite in
a common course of action =
A financial policy not in favor of monometal-
lsm, either OF gold or silver, as the basis of a
financial system, but international bimetallism to
be secured by strenuous efforts of the national
power. Now, and in the future all dollars should
be of equal value to the end that a suitable cur
rency, abundant for all wants shall secure to all
the people the full results of their labor.
The enactment and enforcement of all laws re-
qured for the proper recognition and protection
of labor.
privileges can be protected in no surer way than
by absolute exclusion from our country. of the
paupers, criminals, and diseased of Europe. The
party, therefore, favors the passage of such re.
strictive legislation as will admit to our shores
only those immigrants who have the capacity and
desire to become good American citizens.
A firm and unbending foreign policy. which will
prevent the interference of European powers in
the domestic government OF American states and
countries. The party sustains the course OF
President Harrison and ex-Nlinister John l..
Stevens toward the people of the Hawaii islands,
and wholly disapproves the un-American policy
of the Cleveland administration in relation there
to.
Legislation for the benefit of the Union soldiers
of the war of the rebellion, their widows and
children, and disapproval of the present policy OF
the Pension Bureau in making such laws, to a de.
gree, nullity.A
Full recognition of the benefits to all the people
of the State which have come from temperance
and prohibition and we pledge our continued and
hearty support of the enforcement Of the prohibi-
tory laws.
A tariff for the protection of American labor
against the underpaid and pauper labor of foreign
countries 81
The Republican party calls upon all the voters
of the State to express at the polls their disap.
proval of the Wilson tariff bill, the main Vicious
features of which are maintained and added to in
the bill now before the Senate, which surrenders
the interests of Northern labor while 1t protects
those OF the South, and delivers nearly every in
dustry OF Maine into the hands of our nearest and
most hostile rival, the Dominion of Canada.
The Blaine system of reciprocity and opposition
to the Democratic policy which attempts Its aban-
donnent and repeal
Cordial approval of the course of the Maine del
egation, in the Senate and in the House of Repre-.
sentatives, in fighting the Democratic tariff bill at

1t doesn't seem fair to the women, denied
the right of suffrage, to hold them response
BILE for Cleveland's election to the presi-
dency in 80. There is little doubt Cleve-
land owed much to his wife. 1t always
seemed to us whatever adventitious popu-
larity he acquired in that way was among
men rather than among the women. Per-
haps we are mistaken. The fact that
women do exert q powerful influence in
politics remains good nevertheless. In
what way do the wives and mothers Of the
workingmen propose to exert their
political influence this fall? They
in some instances to greater degree than
the men realize the extremities to which
their families have been forced by the theo-
ries and pernicious practices of the Demo
cratic administration of national affairs.
What are the women wage earners to do
with their influence? We should feel rea-
sonably certain that if they bad the right to
