STRONG CASE in POINT.
Atlantic Seaboard Workmen Get No
Advantage From Increased Cost
of Their Productions. -,

Frederick Seymour, Democratic
lawyer nominated for Congress In
New Jersey, In his letter of acceptance
makes a practical plea for the issues
raised by his party, addressing himself
directly to tradesmen and working men
Of New Jersey.
with the statement that the interests
Of New Jersey are largely manufacture
Ing he asserts that "in common with al
the seaboard States ii Is hard hit by
our present tariff on raw materials
which enter into the various processes
Of domestic industry and on articles
partly made up, which are virtually
raw materials, and on animals and
foods.
After pointing out the various artl-
Giles adversely affected by the tariff he
turns to the relations OF the tariff to
the labor question, pure ana simple,
with this interesting and irrefutable
argument:
1.-THE labor question and the tariff are
closely connected but in very differ
ent way from what our opponents say
While no Federal law can directly raise
wages, the Federal Government can as
certain the facts, and can make plain
the general principles to be derived
from them ana can settle to the ne.
ccptnncc Of NIL men that raw materials
and coal IRE deNrer on the Atlantic
coast than In the great interior manu-
featuring centres, that the seaboard IS
the best place TO manufacture for the
export trade, that the cost Of labor In
manufactured products Is less in the
United States than anywhere else In
the world that the tariff on most man
ufactured goods Is twice and, In many
instances. four times the cost OF labor
In the product. that the tariff is excess
slye and injurious, that 1t is the direct
cause of parttimc work in our factor
les that the cost Of living Is increased
by the tariff, and that the increased
cost of manufactured goods does not go
TO labor, and having established these
facts may publish them"

EEARST TO the CLUBS.
From the Ringing Address of the
President OF the Democratic
Association.

Mr. William Il. Hearst, in an address
to the members Of the National Asso-
citation of Democratic Clubs. of which
association he was the founder and is
now the President says:
II hope that every official and every
individual member of every club il
our association will do all that he can
and more than ever before-to pro-
mote and eXpound the interests and
the beliefs of genuine Jeifersonian
Democracy. l call upon all members
of the clubs to begin earnest campaign
| work Immediately, to reorganiZe where
reorganization Is necessary, and espe-
clally to respond promptly and encr-
getically to every suggestion thai may
come from the National management
of the Democratic party. | have offered
my services and those Of my news
papers to the managers Of the DemCc-
racy, and IL so far rs | have felt JUS
tilted as your President in so doing |
have offered the much greater intlu-
ence of the National Association of
Democrats Clubs, plcdging the honest
cooperation of all the members to
further effort on the lines of that gen
uine Democracy IL which majority of
the American people believe"
Mr.. Hearst concludes his ringing call
to the clubs to get into line and work
hard for the success of the Democratic
National ticket, in these words:
1--WE Democrats hold now, as we did
one hundred years ago, to the doctrine
of equal rights for all and special priv
ileges to none. while Mr.. Rooscvelts
party and Mr.. Roosevelt, with every
appointment in his gift bestowed on
some trust puppet hold to the doctrine
of special favors for those who can and
will pay"

POOLING THE FARMER.
Eoosevelt's Letter Drops Into the
pv> OLD Republican Pretcnsc. ~

The Republican party has for years
been trying to delude the farmer and
the worklngman inc the belief that
the present tariff makes them better
OFF, that Is, that it makes the American
wage Garner or farmer richer to pay
heavy taxes-taXes Oh all that he
wears. his tools, on his agricultural
machinery, on the nails and wood that
so into his house, his bed, his table
and his coffin, on his swaddling clothes,
his wedding garments ard his shroud.
1t is pure pretense that tifty-two
per cent. of the American farmers
crops are used as the manufacturers
raw material. 1t is characteristic Of
the Presidents letter of acceptance
that he does not say thai raw cotton
makes more than half of the products
of the farm used in this way, and there
is no reason why this fact should have
been omitted unless the assertion
would have made the whole statement
ridiculous.

SURPLUS AND DEFICIT.
Comparison by Bryan to the Credit
OF Cleveland's Administration.

Speaking of the panic of 1898, Will
liam !. Bryan says in the current is
sue of tie COmmouer:
"Ehe first indication of its coming
appeared November II. 1880, when
the New York Clearing House Assoc
citation voted its certificates to banks
in need of assistance. November II
the Boston Clearing House did like
wise. Barker Bros. 4 Co., bankers,
of Philadelphia. failed with liabilities
of S5,OOo,0O0. Mr.. Bryan then gives
a long list Of failures, beginning with
the United Rolling Stock Company, OF
Chicago. November -, 1880, and end
ING with that Of the Spring Garden
Bank, Of Philadelphia, May s, 1891.
Then came the Homestead and other
great labor troubles. followed by the
election of Cleveland to the Presiden-
~. In May. 1895. there were more
failures. and finally the raids on the
United States Treasury. January IL,
1891. the Administration ordered
$1OOOO.OOO bond issue. August i,
1891 tie Wilson tariff went into eff
feet"
Continuing with his most interest
ing and timely retrospect. Mr. Bryan
says:
1T will be observed that the Cleye-
land Administration ordered the S5O,-
100000 bond issue January II, 1894.
That was seven months before the
Wilson bill became a law. Perhaps
1t is not significant. but in view OF
Nr. Roos ayclts claim, it is at least
interesting. that the first indications
of the panic occurred November IL.
1890. little more than thirty days
after the Mckinley tariff bill became
a law. From that date the panic ragged
and while its effects were felt for
syeral years. it reached its worst
stage in 1893 and during the early
days Of 1891. during All Of which time
thu Mckinley tariff law was in effect
1T may not be out Of place to point
out That when the Democratic Admin
istration surrendered the reinS Of gov
eminent. March {, 1881 there was in
the Federal Treasury the largest sur
MUS iii history. When the Republican
narfy went ont Of power. March 4.

In further emphasis of his imperial

who has hitherto during the campaign
been kept well muzzted by his man
ayers, broke loose in Washington on
Sept. 9th. when he received at the
White House about seventy mem
bers of the International Congress OF
Arts and Science In the course of a
brief address made to them Mr.. RooSe-

NO MUD SINGING.
Judge Parker Speaks Out For a
Clean Campaign.

That Judge Alton Il. Parker. the
Democratic nominee for the Presi-
dency, is a man far above the small
things of life and man of rock-ribbed
principle, his famous gold telegram
to the st. Louis convention was in it
self sufficient evidence, but a more
striking illustration of his absolute
Observation-Disclosures is the following letter
to Mr.. George +. Parker, Chairman of
the Literary Bureau of the National
Democratic Committee, and a number
of the committee which prepared the
text book. The letter follows:
Rosemount,
Esopus, New York,
August II, 1904.
My Dear Mr.. Parker:
The Times of this morning says that
the party textbook is about prepared,
and that 1t will go to the printer in a
few days. Therefore hasten to beg
you to see to it that there is no word
in it that reflects upon the personal
honor and integrity of President Roose-
welt.
An Evening Post editorial indicates
that but little care was taken in that
direction toward myself by the COM
piler OF the Republican textbook, but
let there be no rejoinder in kind or
otherwise.
| feel confident that you need no re-
minder, still my anxiety impels me to
send this caution.
Very truly yours,
ALTON 3. PARKER.
Mr. George +. Parker.
1t will be remembered that many
pages Of the Republican campaign
book were devoted to an attack upon
the personal character of the Demo.
cratic nominee; especially in regard to
his motives In sending the Gold Tel
egram" to the party convention at
st. Louis.
That the wishes Of Judge Parker
that there be mo rejoinder in kind OF
otherwise" have been scrupulously OBJ
served will be apparent when the Dem.
ocratic text book, now about to be
issued, is read.
The book will have as sort of
preface full copy of the Constitution
of the United States, as emphasizing
the Democratic contention that the
return to the Constitution" is one
OF the principal issues in this cam,
paigl. The greatest amount of space
in the book Is devoted to the discussion
of tie tariff

A Good Showing.

The following Is a report of mining property turned Tn by n local expert:
 ''The lead has bacon and beans on the hanging and pie on the foot and pitches toward the boarding house. It is a sugar quartz of fine quality, such as retails at about le pounds for dollar
 Another valuable assest of the lead is whole stable full of horses, all of which are large and strong and capa- ble of much use; in fact, it is doubtful if they ever could be worked out. That there is money in the property Is unquestiona ble, as the present own CTS have added to nature's store and never taken any out. The equipment of the mine is very complete On the hoist there Is a two cylinder Arm strong engine which can be operated as the nominal cost of s per day.
 A bucket IS used in the shaft, as 1t answers not only for hoisting, but also for rushing purposes. Another eco nomical feature is that 1t Is never necessary to buy water for the engine; there is an abundance of 1t in the mine.-Stateline.
