~ m pathy for Parker.

Possibly some Democrats may want
to vote for Parker. because they would
feel very sorry for him in the event of
his defeat. But II is matter Of com
mon gossip in New York that Parker.
il not elected President. is to hive fat
job anyway; that in fact lie has already
been offered by August Belmont the posi-
ton of counsel OF the Interborough Tran
sit Railway at n salary Of $4,000 a
year. the same salary he would get as
President Of the United States. and that
in this position he may also do outside
legal work as member OF a law firm to
consist OF Hill. Sheehan and Parker. In
any event Mr.. Parker has secured a fine
advertisement for himself by his candi-
dacy for President, 10 that there will be
no danger whatever Of his not being able
to earn a good living in private life by
the practice OF law. IL would seem to
be better for Mr.. Parker to get 5000
per year from Mr.. Belmont as direct
counsel for that gentleman, than to get
$4,000 per year from the United States
government for official services that may
be largely Influenced by the suggestions
Of Mr.. Belmont, who is in the trusts
neck high, and who once organized
syndicate which got a rake-off of nearly
SS.0oo.0o0 on bonds issued during the
second Cleveland administration to make
good the deficits resulting from the Viii
son tariff for revenue only" bill.
In the minds of voters the personal
prosperity of thousands of Americans
who would be adversely affected by Dem
ocratic victory should count for more
than sympathy for the Democratic can
didate; who will doubtless continue to
grow personally more prosperous. not
withstanding a disappointment in his
Presidential aspirations

Growth of M.nu..cturrns.

Manufacturing never attained much
growth under the old Democratic regime.
Democratic legislation and Democratic
administration were not favorable to it.
They favored the importation OF manu-
factured products from foreign countries.
The real development OF our msnufactur-
ing industries dates practically from the
birth OF the Republican party and the
establishment of protection. In 1860
there were only 1I0.433 manufacturing
adjustments in the United States; in
1900 there were 512,734. In 1860 the
value of our manufactures was S1.Ss5.-
$4,000; in 1900 it was 3.039. .273. 600.
The figures show that our present great
manufacturing system dates from the or
ganization of the Republican party.

How Is This, Mr.. Cleveland?

Ex-President Grover Cleveland says in
a solemn letter advising young men. that
his first vote was cast for .the expert
enced. undramatic Buchanan" rather
than for Fremont. the Pathfinder" Ac-
eording to the record, Grover Cleveland
was born on the 18th day of March,
1887. He could not have reached the
age of twenty-one years in 1856. when
Buchanan was elected. Not until 1853
was Grover Cleveland OF legal voting
age.
But. as the Washington Star remarks,
they used to vote early and often in
those days.

Domestic Manufactures.

The exports of domestic manufactures
from the United States have grown from
SI0.345. 500 in 1850 to $403.G41. .4Ol in
1902. Nearly ali of this growth was
under Republican administrations Since
1899 the expectation of manufactures
has averaged over 400.Oo0.0OO per an
nun. being more than twice as much as
in any year prior to 1896. four times
as much as in any year prior to 1877.
and ten times as much as in any year
prior TO 1867. Could there be a stronger
argument in favor of Republican policies
than that afforded by these figures?

A Ludicrous Complaint.

The further complaint that the figures

prices instead of wholesale can only he
understood by assuming that the use Of
the latter would have given the Demo-

the reasons for the use of retail prices
as basis for cost of living in prefer
ence to the wholesale. 1t is true that
wholesale prices have been used at times
to indicate the trend of cost of living.
