THE Sun SHINES.
A NEW YORK PAPER OWNS UP TO
ITS BLUNDER.

1t Helped to Eieet Grover CIeveiand as
President and Now Tears Its Candidate to
Pieces-Facts That Ought to Have Been
Discovered Years Ago.
The exposure by the New York Sun
May 20 of the socialistic teachings of
Grover Cleveland deserves more than a
mere passing recognition. Only two
years The sun waged "A vigorous
warfare against the prosperity of the
United States by advocating the election
of Mr.. Cleveland to h office of presl-
dent Of the United States. 1t / SO
largely by creating class discrimination,
and its cry Of NO force bill No negro
domination will be long remembered.
1t set the south against the north. Ii
advocated "A policy that has damaged
and destroyed the manufacturing n
the wage earning interests i'll both Sec
tiOns. 1t descended to the level Of the
pro-English and anti American organs
that disgrace the American press of to-
day, vet which were successful in the
campaign of 1892.
1t is indeed gratifying to know,
though two years late, that The Sun
finds the idol which it shOne upon in
1892 to be mere clay, dross or brass.
But this should have been discovered
sooner. 1t was Just as easy for The Sun
to refer TO the speeches and letters of
the presidential candidate in 1892 as it
is to do this in 1894. The documents
of 1886, of 1883, of 1891, of April and
July, 1892, We're all at the disposal of
The Sun as matters of public record
prior TO November, 1892. The Sun knew
then, or should nave known, the char
acter of the man whom il wished to
elect to the high Office of president and
that his teachings were 1.-The teachings
of the disturbers of society, and some
times such teachings bea terrible fruit. "
There can be no excuse whatever for
a journal of the high standing of the
New York Sun for advocating such
teachings through its candidate. They
were un-American and should have
found no place either directly or indi-
rectly in the columns of a reputable
American journal. We trust this will
prove "A lesson to all American newspa-
pers such as are truly American and
have the interests of their country at
heart. 1t is far better to take the trou-
BILE to ascertain whether the candidate
for the high office of president has at
any time been "a socialistic agitator, an
advocate of anarchy, "a promoter of strife
or a disturber of classes before his cleo
tion than it is to do this after his cleo
ton.
The light mas come. The splutterings
of the flag ends of the candle are *
tinguished. Now the light is good.
The light is divided from the darkness.
Let The Sun so shine.

4. THE STAGE AND THE TARIFF.
Cleveland Times Put Actors on Their Up
peers and Tax the Benefit Funds

Cleveland Times Put Actors on Their Up
pers and Tax the Benefit Funds
There is no class of people among
our entire community upon whom is
more quickly reflected a dull OF a pros
porous condition of business than the
actor. There has been no business that
more fully experienced b Cleveland
panic of 1884 han did the theatrical
profession. Managers have been disap-
pointed. Many of the actors and &C.
tresses have been without work and in
dire want and necessity.
At the thirteenth annual meeting OF
the Actors Fund association, held in
New York last June, President Palmer
pointed out that THE terrible wave of
business depression which has swept
over our country has brought great mis-
cry and want to many members of the
dramatic profession, and it has not only
made our task in soliciting and collect
ing money very hard, but it has largely
increased the volume Of our work among
the funds beneficiaries, for, in addition
to the care of the sick, we have been
Obliged to take an active part in caring
for thnsA nf our brethren and sisters

who, though o disabled by sickness,
were still helpless, lacking in most IN
stances even the barest necessities OF
life.
In order to relieve the unfortunate
actors and actresses who, owing TO the
Cleveland dull times, We're unable tc
find ~remunerative employment, a spe-
cial fund amounting to 80. Clio. % was
raised by subscriptions and by benefit
performances given in various theaters
in New York. The expenditure of this
money was placed in the hands of a
committee, which reported that they
had given relief to 517 actors and ac-
tresses and had paid out SIS, l55. SO. The
report stated that relief was still being
given to members of the theatrical pro-
fession who, though in bodily health,
find themselves in mos desperate straits
until the coming of the new dramatic
season, when it was hoped there would
be- an improvement in the general bust
ness of the country.
The growth of distress among actors
and actresses was stated for 1892. In
that year relief was afforded to sol per-
sons; in 1888 relief was afforded to sos
members Of the profession, and this
year the number has increased to 903.
This long list of beneficiaries includes
7O3 actors and actresses of the dramatic,
operatic and variety stage; 5S mana
gers, business managers and agents; 16
dancers, IL circus performers, 8 min
strels, 3 stage managers, 2 dramatists, 40
musicians, 3 magicians, 10 machinists,
81 museum performers, 3 scenic artists
and 90 of all other classes.
The American actor and the Ameri-
can actress are not protected by the tar
if directly; therefore, according to the
free trade theory, their business should
prosper without intermission and with
out regardto passingevents aroundthem
The result. however, which upsets the
old and wornout free trade theory we
have already shown. But it may be well
to 90 further and point out the fact that
where the dramatic profession is not
protected it has been "a particular victim
to free trade, because foreign managers
and foreign actors who come to this
country and make money out of the
American people take that money out
of the country. Yet they have been al
lowed to import their costumes and ev-
erything else pertaining to their pro-
auctions free of duty. while American
managers and actors We're compelled to
pay duty on everything that they i'm
ported from abroad.
Without the benefi of this concession
it would not pay many foreign mama
gers to bring whole companies to this
country to take the bread and butter
out of the mouths of American actors,
who can do equally well, if not a
good deal better, and the profits made
by the ventures of the American man
ayers would be expended IT invested in
our own country instead of being car
ried off to Europe to increase our out
flow Of American gold.

Starved Out of business.

For more than a year past wool has
been selling at free trade prices, SO that
many growers have been starved out of
the business, and the few remaining
have not been able 10 pay current ex-
penses. In consequence of this condition
of affairs several thousand in connec-
ton with the trade hav been forced
out of employment. I'm fact, never since
wool growing has been an industry in
this country has the business been in
such a deplorable condition al during
the past I2 months. The Bank of
Tempe. A. T., has just closed its doors
ON account of the ruin of some of its
stockholders through the shrinkage in
the price Of wool and sheep.-Oakland

There is much reason TO fear that the
rariff policy of President Cleveland and
the American Democrats is doomed TO
complete failure. The Wilson tariff
bill, as it has come back t. the senate
from the committee, is completely met
anorphosed. The duties are raised on
almost every class of article the landing

months exports with the total clips for

with 115, 900 bales on hand a year ear
