form than did the silver Republicans
begin to repudate the Hon. James
McLaclan. This movement against
him in his own party is quite pro-
bounced. The silver Republican club
OF this county alone, has 2,045 names
already enrolled as members, and con-
stantly increasing. The membership

Equally encouraging reports are being
received from all over the district.
Mr.. A, G. Barlow, a bright young
farmer of San Luis, ObispO county, is
the POpulist candidate for congress

have also made him their nominee,
and the silver Republicans through,

which l consider reliable, the silver
sentiment in this state Is shown to be
about ten to one. In view of the fact
that the money question is the over

ors and congressman, and also upon
members Of the Legislature to elect a
United States senator next winter
who will be in accord with the admin
istratiOn of Mr., Bryan.
Four years ago in this state the
combined vote for the Cleveland and
Weaver electors gave majority of
1882. While there will be some de-
lection of gold Democrats, the acces-
sions of Republican votes will be ex-
tenSive. 1t is conservative to say
that California will give Bryan and

THE DEMOCRATIC TARIFF.
How 1t Has "Swamped Our Markets With
Foreign Goods"

To those who believe the Wilson
tariff bill has brought disaster to our
manufacturing industries by flooding
our markets with foreign goods, a few
figures gathered by Mr.. Otis from
the statistical abstract Of the United
States for 1895 may be both interest
ing and instructive. Senator Baker,
in a speech at Clay Center on the 5th
inst, mentioned imports for 1S94-5 Of
wooden, silk and cotton goods, tobacco
sugar and mOlasses, coal and coke,
kid gloves, earthen ware, iron and
steel, etc., bewailing the terrible
effects OF such imports in causing the
hard times Of the present, and prais-
ing the good days of Harrison's ad
ministration under the Mckinley
tariff. The Senator forgot to tell his
hearers that less was imported of
each and every article mentioned, ex-
cept sugar and tobacco, during the
years lS94-5 than during the years
1872,
The following is a comparative

An Illinois Republican,

Judge Alfred Sample, Judge of the
Appellate court Of Bloomington, Ill.,,
an old Republican writes an able ar
ticle to the Bulletin of that city, de.
Tending his course. We extract the
following from it:
"Why should we seek to destroy the
value of the silver product, which we
produce more of than any other
nation, and thus drive thousands of
men out Of employment. As Repub.
llcans we have been taught to encour-
age manufactures, so they might
employ men to consume our products.
There are nearly as many men en-
gagged In mining, so it is stated, as 10
the factories. At least there is a
large number. Why should not the
same rule apply to the miners as to
the factorymen, especially when the
benefits to US will be as Great. if not
greater, than to the miners by the in.
crease in the price of our products,
by the increased circulation of
money? By our present policy of
cheapening silver we furnish our
rivals with the means of forcing
down the price Of our agricultural
products that come into competition
with silver countries. Just notice
how the game is being played on us.
For Illustration, suppose wheat in
silver countries is 81 per bushel, in
silver. 1.-THE latest l have seen was
sOcents.) The Englishimporter can buy
the bullion in that silver dollar of US
for about fifty cents, take it to the
silver country and buy silver dollar
wheat with it, when in fact 1t only
cost the importer about so cents. He
can take the wheat to England aid
sell 1t for say IS cents per bushel and
thus make fair froft. Do not our
people have to put our wheat down
to the same price in order to com.
pete, This illustration will apply to
any article or product that such
countries make or produce 10 compe-
tition with US. II we raise the price
OF silver to its former price, as we can
do, this game could not be played on
US. So that if we lUOk at the question
from any standpoint our interest lies
with the free coinage of silver.
What is the distinct issue presented
by the gold plank of the St. Louis
platform? One that no national
party ever presented before, viz, that
until such (internationaD agreement
can be obtained the existing gold
standard must be preserved" This,
in my judgment, is the most vicious
and un-American declaration ever
incorporated in a party platform in
America. Think of it! Par. 5, Sec. s
Art. Of the original constitution,
presided over by Washington, declares
The congress shall have the power tC
coin, money, regulate the value there.
Of and of foreign CON-" The pledge
of the gold plank is that this nation
will not exercise its constitutional
power as to the free coinage of silver
until foreign nations agree to it, and

ratio, Washington, in that sacred doc,

THE UNDERLYING PRINCIPLE OF
PARTY ORGANIZATION.

Mr.. Cleveland, after his nomination at
Chicago in 1892, in letter TO Clark
Howell, editor of the Atlanta Constitu-
ton. commencing his course in support
ing the National Democratic ticket,
stated that the underlying principle OF
party organization is acceptance of the
arbitrament of the National Conven-
ton. That was good doctrine i'll 1892,
coming from the nominee of the Ma
tional Democracy, and it is good doc
trine now, for all Democrats TO fall into
line on. There never has been a plat
form that the voters of the party could
support every plank it contained. The
-yirginian does not agree with all the
blanks of the platform recently adopt
ed by the Democratic Convention at
Chicago, but it accepts the sound con-
illusions enunciated by Mr.. Cleveland
in his letter to Mr.. Howell in 1892, viz:
The underlying principle of party Or
ganization is acceptance of the arbitra-
ton of the National Convention"
The Norfolk Virginian. [volume] (Norfolk, Va.) 186?-189?, 1896-07-18
SHOULD MAKE AN EXAMINATION

The New York Journal advises those
change of politics to first make an ex-
animation of McKlnley's record as Gov
ernor of Ohio, and also of the Republi-
can party's record when it was in power.
No good can be expected of that party
in any event. whatever its professed
platform or however respectable its
nominal leader.
The Richmond Dispatch, writing on
q similar line, says: 1--WE do not ask
any dissatisfied Democrat to commit
himself in hurry. Study the situar
ton as much as you please. Ponder the
existing condition of things Reflect
upon the prospects of a return of an
boilers to the Democratic party. De-
eide for yourselves whether you viii
prefer the company of the Democrats,
though some OF these have formed new
relations to last till November next. or
will fall into the company of the Re-
publicans. If we have bad men in our
-ranks-the- Republicans have more.
Right under the standards of the DE
mocracy is the place for the Democrats
of Virginia. But, as we have said, take
your time to make up your mind, but be
sure that when made up, it is right.
If there are any Democrats in Vir-
ginia who contemplate a change Of
politics they should first consider the
facts set forth by our New York con-
temporary, and in the meanwhile what
the Dispatch has to say about being
in a hurry to abandon the old party
ecause of temporary difference Of
ooinion on recent matters.
