1t is only in protective countries that
trusts and such combines and mon
opolies flourish. A protective tariff is
to keep out foreign trade that would
interfere with home manufacturers,
This cuts off competition and trusts
are combinations to prevent competi-
tion and so enable them to control the
market, fix prices to suit themselves
and have employees by the throat And
all this is Republicanism, which we may
say. narrows mans mind and makes
us poor dupes to the few Of mankind
Democracy, taking a much broader
view, demands that full justice shall
see us all through. So vote our whole
ticket and sweep those away who sup

The Philadelphia Record, of Oct.
"a, says:
For the first time in many wears
foreign manufacturers are being call
ed upon to supply steel rails for the
United States. During the past week
the Red Star line steamship Switzer-
land and the Norwegian steamship
Hanseat arrived at this port from
Antwerp and Rotterdam respectively.
with part cargoes of steel rails, made
In Scotland and Germany, consigned to
the Union Traction company, of this
city, and New York company, acting
for street railway lines in other cities.
They are the first steel rails made IN
foreign countries ever contracted for
py any street railways in this country.
In the midst of the greatest area of iron
and steel production that has ever been
witnessed in the United States, when
steel products in particular are being
extensively exported to many foreign
countries, 1t may occasion surprise that
nome consumers are obliged to go
abroad to place important contracts for
steel rails. The situation is easily ex-
planned, however, when 1t is pointed
out that an iron-clad pool or trust has
such tight grip upon the product of
demand In this country that consumers
ma 1t more profitable to import steel
rails than to submit to the exLortion-
ate demands of the monopoly"

Our Republican friends are catching
at straws. For instance, "Col Bryan
himself went to Washington and work.
ed for the ratification of the Paris
peace treaty"
Exactly, the treaty was hanging in
the senate, and Bryan went on and
worked for it's ratification. This does
not relieve the administration from it's
bad management since. Aguinaldo and
his army were our allies, and no one
then thought of war with them; and If
Admiral Dewey had had the control
there would have been no war.
The fact is the corrupt schemers at
Washington are to blame for all this
wretched business and they cannot
shift the responsibility. The orders
went from Washington and the army
officers in command were docile in
struments.

The imperialist organs and orators
are chorusing the declaration that "the
president is just as much bound to
quell an insurrection or rebellion in
Luzon as in Massachusetts or Penn
sylvania." How can there be "rebel-
lion" where there are neither citizens
nor subjects? How can there be an
"insurrection" where there is no "al-
leglance? The people Of Massachu-
sets acknowledge citizenship in and
allegiance to the United States. They
are living under laws which they
helped to make. They pay taxes which
they helped to vote and of which they
receive the benefit The flag Is their
flag The army is their army. Can
the same be truly said of the Filipinos,
who have a government and flag and
allegiance of their own, and who have
never ratified nor recognized their sale
by Spain?-N. Y. World.

The Hanna organs parade figures to
show the great increase in manufac-
turing business in Canton and other
towns. Their sheets, as usual, only
tell a part of the truth. In many
cases prices of manufactured articles
have doubled. so that the increase in
value will not show that increase in
business. And, one thing is certain,
that increase in workmen's wages has
not advanced in proportion. AS Mr..
Lentz said: "The truth, the whole truth
and nothing but the truth"
With all this parading and clamorous
stuff, and falsities from Hanna, Roose-
welt, and others, these organs exhibit
no alarm at the trusts and combines
that have been multiplying enormously
under this administration and Dingley
tariff. They have no adverse word to

John r. Mclean has been firm

of these organs ought to acknowledge
his generosity in one instance. Com

it came near home and was quite un-

Mr.. Watterson, Of the Louisville
Courier Journal, in defining his posi-
ton in the peculiar Kentucky fight
now on, takes occasion to speak for
the boiling Democrats Of 1896 in this
way:
Neither he nor any of the self sacri-
ficing Democrats to whom Mr. Nc
Kinley owes the place he holds have
any reason to love the president or to
support his administration. A more
narrow and partisan administration
has never been known in the annals Of
the country. Not less than a million of
Democrats voted directly for Mr.. Nc
Kinley, honestly believing that they
were saving that country from i'm
pending danger. They will never vote
for him again. All that they have got
for their self-immolation upon the
altar Of patriotism has been the ignor-

that: 1T is unwise at this time to
suggest amendments to the present
tariff law in special cases, and that
any notifications of the provisions of
said law should be made on the bases
of some broad policy and independent
of the claims of specific interest" This
has familiar ring.
This action was brought about by the
Boston Shoe & Leather association
asking commercial bodies throughout
the country to appeal to congress to
abolish the Dingley tariff duty on raw
hides. The claim is. the duty does not
benefit farmers or cattle men, bit
