There will be the finding of some sweet ideal

TRIES TO BUY NEGROES.
THIS IS ANOTHER RAINBOW CHASED

OI leans Times-
Edltor Robinson, of The National Echo, the
Colored Organ, Comes Out for Harrison
and Exposes the Democratic Efl‘orts to
Buy Colored Men with Money.
The National Echo, published in TVashing-_
ton, which has been the leading national
Democratic paper published in-thc interest
of the colored race, and an. active factor in
the Democratic party for the past eight
years, will hereafter support Harrison and
Morton. R. Braunum Robinson, the editor,
has written a letter to Rev. IV. B. Derrick,
D. D. These are the most striking parts
of it:
Tho most important issue in American
politics will be settled withiua few weeks.
The results of the presidential election on the
0th of November next decide the civil and
political rights of the colored race for the
next fifty years to come.
As editor and proprietor of The National
Echo, I have in the past taken an indepen-
dent stand as between the two great parties,
believing at the outset thata colored man
could be a Democrat. I have in the past ad-
vocated a division of the colored vote as the
best means to secure protection to life in tho
south. Ihave enjoyed the esteem and con—
fidence of leading Democrats, as you see by
letters of recommendation I send you by this
mail.
After the adjournment of the St. Louis
convention I placed the names of Cleveland
and Thurman, the Democratic candidates, at
the head Of my paper, which is recognized
by the national Democratic committee as the
national organ of colored men who support
their ticket. I signed J. Milton Turner’s call
for a convention of colored men for the ex-
press purpose to 'indorse the Democratic
presidential nominees. I am assistant secre-
nry of the National Negro Democratic
Executive committee which was formed at
the Indianapolis convention. I mention these
facts to show how far I have been taken up
in the Democratic mountain.
After a careful reading of the late speech
of Hon. William E. Chandler, delivered in
the United States Senate on the outrages
perpetrated upon the colored voters in the
south, and the open letter of L. A. Martinet,
of New Orleans, late editor of the New Or-
leans Progress, a colored Democratic paper,
and the stirring address of Hon. Frederick
Douglass and of your own eloquent address,
delivered at the Polo Grounds, in New York
city, Sept. 29, 1888, has caused me to reflect
and look at the true situation of affairs as it
concerns the negro.
Open confession is good for the soul. I see
the error of my way, and I write this letter
to you pledging my support to the Republican
candidates, Harrison and Morton, from now
on until the ides of November. I take this
course, adopting the language of Editor
Martinet, that “the party that is too weak
and pusillanimous to denounce the outrages
perpetrated upon the defenseless negroes 'of
the south ought not to be intrusted with
power.”
As to ex—Miuister Taylor’s statement, that
$0,000 colored men in the northern states
would vote for Cleveland, it is all bosh. Taylor
is a Democratic scarecrow, and his 240,000
consists of Clark and Fortune in Ohio, Mat-
thews and Gross in New York, Taylor and
Turner in Missouri, and a few other misguided .
creatures, and’I hope they will see their error
and leave the enemy’s camp and return to the
house of their friends.
You are at liberty to publish this letter, as
I desire the methods Of the Democratic party
be given publicity, for it is a party beautiful
without, but full of dead men’s bones. My
influence shall be used for the election of
Harrison and Morton, and it behooves the
colored voters of the north to stand united—
divided we fall.
Yours, for the success of the Republican
party. R. B. ROBINSON.
“The Democratic party,” says Editor Rob-
.inson, “only wants to make amoral showing,
and The Echo has been sent broadcast all
over the country hunting Cleveland votes.
The Echo was made the official organ of
James C. Matthews and the New York State
Cleveland league by the Democratic national
committee.”
The letters which Mr. Robinson speaks of
throw additional light open the style of the
chief rainbow chaser. The first is from Mr.
Price himself, and says that Mr. Matthews
and Mr. Gross are doing the burnt cork busi-
ness for the Democratic national committee.
This letter was followed by three from Mr.
Dickinson, which were also interesting be-
cause they inclosed checks for 8100. Then
orders for The Echo :jwero sent in from
Democratic chairmen in all parts of the
country.
Mr. Robinson says that the recent Indian-
apolis convention was manipulated by Mr.
Bricc's Democratic National committee, and
that money and tickets were furnished to
many of the delegates. The whole thing was
a prearranged performance to stampede
negro voters into the Democratic camp. The
whole Indianapolis performance had fallen
flat and would have little or no effect in this
campaign. The Democrats had hired James
C. Matthews, of Albany, to “work” the col-
ored voters in the state of New York.
He had been liberally supplied with funds
and was prepared and authorized by Mr.
Brice to distribute money in a lavish manner
in order to make as much show as possible.
Matthews and William E. Gross formed a
close corporatiou'for the absorption of Demo-
cratic boodlo in New York, and forced
Thomas Fortune westward. He was now in
Ohio conducting a Democratic crusade in the
interest Of the Democratic state committee,
of which Jimmy Townsend, Mr. ‘ Bricc‘s
former law partner, is chairman.
A Genuine Free Trade Argument.
Emissarics of the Democratic state com-
mittee aro wandering about in the interior
counties of New York, telling farmers that
under free trade the price of farm labor
would bO reduced, benefiting the employing
farmer. This is advanced as a reason why
farmers should vote for Cleveland.
Men who earn a living by labor on farms, ‘
or by any other labor, should make a note of
this. One agricultural country, India, is
under tho rule of the free traders, and there
laborers are paid seven cents a day!
Owners of farms 'should reflect that if their
expenses for labor were lessened by the Dem-
ocratic policy, their home market for farm
produce would be destroyed.
Free trade would tend to make the United
States a purely agricultural'couutry, and that

WATTERSON 0N CLEVELAN D.
A Graphic Description of the Democratic
Administration.
The Democratic committee is sending Mr.
\Vatterson about the country to make
speeches for Cleveland. Here is Mr. \Vatter-
son‘s real opinion as it appeared in The New
York Sun, June 0, 1880. _,
This is “an administration which puts
Its belly three times a day to signify it
has had three square meals and blesses
the Lord it has no views to speak of.”
Mr. Watterson then expressed himself
about President Cleveland in Ibis way:
“He is the one man in Washington who is
blind to the truth and (leaf to counsels.
Even the secretary of state, who has lived
most of his life in a peachblow vase 3,000
miles beyond the moon, is not, I am told,
wholly lost to the real state of the case. But
there seems no help for it. A man as inca-
pable Of receiving impressions as of returning
warmth, and sensible of criticism only to the
point of resenting it, the president sits in the
White House Iikoa wooden image made to
be worshipped, not to be loved. To the
weaker members of his cabinet lie has im-
parted his dull self-sufficiency and cold sto-
lidity. The most scrvilo as well as the sin-
cerest form of flattery is imitation, and the
beggars on horseback whom Mr. Cleveland,
seeking to (liscover'a new pclitical planet and
to people it with crcntu.cs of his own,
brought into being and mounted, have caught
the trick of their chief and are equally in-
dustrious and successful in neglecting great
for little things and in seeing nothing clearly
except the regulations of the civil service.
They, too, take more joy in one Republican
who has repented and turned Mugwump than
In ninety and nine Democrats who have never
gone astray.” ' .

TRAPPING A BEAR.
HOW IT IS DONE IN THE WILDS 0F
POTTER COUNTY, N. Y.
October the Finest BearHunting Season of
.5 the Year—Setting the Trap for Bruin.
An Angry Animal—A Ticklish Under-
taking.
Benjamin» J. Jones of Cortland county, N.
Y., on his way to the bear regions, near the
headwaters of the Sinnamahoning creek,
says he takes more solid comfort hunting
bears for a month out in the wilds of Potter
county than he does on his fertile farm in
Cortland during all the rest of the year. In
. a talk with Farmer Jones he said:
SETTING TILE TRAP.
“After I have selected a spot where I want
to set a trap I find a fallen tree about a foot
in diameter. On the trunk of the tree I place
the butt-s of small logs, one on top of the
other, just as they do in building up a log
hut, and let’the other ends spread out on the
ground in the shape of a' letter V, with the
point at the tree trunk. Then I drive a nail
’ in the log and hang the bait on it so that the
bear can come along the next day, march
right into the log pen with the open front,
grab the bait and run off with it. Oh, no, I
don’t: set any trap then. The bear has no
difficulty in hooking the bait and making off
with it, but he Won’t come back the next day
~after to see if there is any more meat around
there to bO gobbled up, but you can set it
down as a fact that he will come nosing
around again within a week as sure as he
lives. .
“From now until the ground freezes up is
the best time to trap bears out there. Their
skins are good from now on, and they can
scent the bait half a dozen times further now '
than they can after it gets so cold that the
bait will freeze. We use almost any kind of
fresh meat for bait, and if it hangs till it gets
.tainted a little a bear will smell it when he is
a mile away, and hustle around and nose
about until he finds it. In cold’weather the
meat will freeze right up, and a bcarfs nostrils
can’t scent it ten rods away. That is one rea-
son why I trap bears in October, and the
other reason is because October is the finest
month in all the year to be out in the woods.
“J ust as likely as not he will make his ap-
pearance on the third day. In order to know
whether the meat has been carried away or
not, you have to visit the place every day.
TVheu I find that the meat is gone I place
fresh bait directly under where the other has
been hanging, pinning it to the ground with
a crotchcd sapling. Then I set the trap. I
place it about three feet from the bait, and in
a direct line with it, making sure that the
pub of the trap is toward the point from
which the bear is to come. If the pan is
placed toward the bait, it is more than likely
that the bear will bring his foot down too
near the end of the jaws, and in that case ten
chances to one you will find nothing but a
bear’s too or two when— you go to the trap.
After I have got the trap set and nicely cov-
ered with leaves, and have hitched the chain
to eithera small piece of timber or an iron
claw a little larger than my hand, I place a
stick as large as my leg across the logs at the
mouth of the V-shaped enclosure, and then
go away.
MAD AS A HOIINET.
“Everything is now ready for him to nose,
around, and when he gets to the stick that
lies across the mouth of the pen he will not
try to push it away. He will not even try to
raise it up with his nose or to crawl under
it, but he will lift up one of his fore feet,
throw it oVer the stick, and .bring it down
right on to the trap. Then there is some tall
thrashing around, for the bear is just then
one of the most astonished animals in crea-
tion, and in his wild attempts to free his
foot he breaks down the bushes and tears
things up generally. He is maddcr than a
whole nest of hornets over the fix he finds
himself in, but when he learns that the trap
docs not hold him to the spot he cools Off a
bit, does everything he can think Of to coax
the trap to open its jaws and nurses his pain-
ful foot. '
“Looking for the bear after you have found
that the trap has been carried away, es-
peciallly when the undergrowth is dense, is
very exciting. It is ticklish business, for you
don’t know what minute you may run foul
of the bear, and, if you happen to come pat
upon him, he will plunge at you and make
such a noise that for a few seconds you will
'be almost beside yourself. If there is ever a
time that a bear will fight any living thing
making every minute of his life miserable.
He acts as though you had something to do
with getting him into the trouble, and he dogs
'his best to get square with you for it. Of
course you have a good gun well in hand
when you find him, and the weight or the
hook on the other end of the chain keeps him
from making quite as fast speed through the
bushes and over the logs as you make, and
you soon stop his noise with a chunk of lead.”

Feeding a. ‘Hungry Beggar.
A good hea'rted Harlem clergyman has for
a ' onth been the victim of a beggar, who
always told him the same story of not hav-
ing had a mouthful to eat for twenty-four
hours. He made the very common mistake
of answering the appeal with a (lime or a
quarter. A few days ago several of his par-
ishioners told him about this perpetually
hungry man and how he had received finan-
cial aid from them. '
Yesterday the good domiuio was the recepi-
cut of a visit from the hungry man. This
time he had fasted longer than usual.
“My poor fellow, you must be hungry,”
said the clergyman, sympathetically; “come
down with me to the kitchen.”
The beggar’s facc fcll, but he followed. At
the master’s bidding the cook placed an cnor-
mous roast, from which the clergyman cut
an enormous slice. “There, my poor fellow,
eabyour fill.” The follow ate, not daring to
refuse, and, as his plate became emptied, the
clergyman, with ferocious hospitality, rc-
plenished it again and again. The beggar
ate until it became positively painful to
vatch him. After he had eaten about three
ordinary meals the clergyman relented and
dismissed the beggar with an invitation to
call whenever he felt hungry.—‘ ‘Miss J ustice”

A Badly Puzzled Driver.
A negro got off the train a day or two
since and had a small trunk. He asked a
draymau what he would charge to bring the
trunk to town. The darky driver said, “A
quarter.” “\Von‘t pay it,” said the new ar-
rival, as he shouldered his trunk and started
to the city. The roads were very muddy,
and the negro draymau was bringing his
dray back without a thing on it. The dorky
said to him, "Let me ride.” “Jump up,” re—
sponded the driver. The new arrival
mounted the dray with the trunk on his
shoulder and rode to his destination. As he
got off the drive: said, “Give me a quarter
for bringing up your trunk.” “But you
didn’t,” said the other darky; “I totcd it all
the way.” “Dali's so,” said the driver, “but
I tort I was er Laulin’ it; how is dat, any-
how?‘ I tort I’d get a quarter for haulinldat
trunk, an’ I didn’t haul it nuddcr. Idou’t
understand it.” And he went of} badly
puzzled—Americus (Ga) Republican.
A Prophet of 'ictory.
“I think New York is a certainty,” said
Governor Foraker, on his way back to Ohio.
"I have spoken in eight different cities, from
one end of the state to the other, and I am
surprised at the enthusiasm and strength of
the party here. Out our way we have been
depending on Indiana and Connecticut to
pull us through, but I wouldn’t swap the
chances in New York for those in either of
the other two. It is going to bearegular
landslide here, and Harrison’s majority will
be nearer 40,000 than 20,000. I am firmly
convinced that every northern state will give
its electoral vote to Gen. Harrison, with a
strong probability of “70st Virginia being in
the list as well."
The IssuO-Drlefly Staged.
The New York World admits that the lie-
publicans have increased the free list from
$50,000,000 in 1886 ts $234,000,000 (says Rufus
Fleming in the Cincinnati Times-Star). But
it says that “the enlargement is almost wholly
due to the free listing of articles not pro—
duced in this country,’Tlike tea, coflz‘ec,spices,
etc. Well, those are very important articles
for both the poor and the rich, are they not?
They enter into universal consumption. A
duty on too. or coffee could bo nothing but
a revenuo tariff, and the nearest ap-
proach to a direct tax possible in cus-
toms dutics, without any compensating
benefit, for there is no homo competition
with the foreign producer. TVO have here a
very clear illustration of the Democratic pol-
icy. It is the English policy—practical free
trade. Revenue for the government should
be raised, say these economists, by duties
upon such products of other countries as are
not produced in this country. This elimi-
nates altogether the protective principle. It
denies protection to our industries, abandons
the working millions to a struggle on even
terms with fo‘iign labor. Republicans, on
the other band, hold the doctrine that every-
thing not raised or made in the United
States should be free of duty and that in pm
viding revenue for the government duties
should be so laid as to encourage home indus-
try, diversify employment and promote the
interests of labor. The contest this year is
between these two policies.

"ad with Eczema. "air all nonr-
who had occasion to purchase ,
|
story to her friends: “I Went down into a
basement where-they kept these things and I
'wanted more things than I could begin to
enumerate, even to myself, all the way from
a rolling pin to a refrigerator—ranging
through butter plates, stove lids and waste
baskets. Well, I just put myself into the
hands of a nice girl with dark hair and a kind
countenance, who looked so delightfully capa-
blc and self reliant that I confided to her I
wanted to furnish a flat and didn’t half know
what I ought to purchase. ‘You .see,’ I said,
‘I never furnished a house beforc, and it’s so
confusing to have to buy pillows and flat
irons and kitchen clocks. They always seemed
just to be there like the walls of the house or
the sunlight, and I get all mixed up when I
try to remember what people ought to have
when they begin life in one of those dreadfully
empty new flats. I know I ought to buy a
pepper box, and a washboard, and curtain
poles, but what else?—
“That girl had a kind heart, and was too
clever and sensible for anything. She gave
me one comprehensive glance, and went and
fetched a printed list that was made espe-
cially for young housekeepers, and has on it
the name of everything they could by any
possibility be likely to want fer the dining
room, kitchen and laundry. Then she sat
down on one pantry step ladder and l on an-
other, and she ' road over each thing and
checked it off if I thought I wanted it. After
that she took me to'the front of the shop, got
out a huge clothes basket and began to show
1110 samples of each thing we had marked ofl.’
-——seventy in all there were. She knew ex-
actly where each and every one of those
seventy things were kept and the prices of
all three grades of every one.
“As soon as would make my selection she
would put it in the basket, and in one hour 1
had filled the whole list, had the bill and paid
it. Then she told'me where to get every—
thing elsc I needed and just what it cost and
what counter I could find it at and the best
sort of goods to buy for my purpose. As far
as house furnishing goods were concerned, I
found she carried every single detail of that
vast establishment in her head. I didn’t
question her concerning clothes, but I am
firmly convinced she could have, dre me
from top to toe and then sentme to t book

to the caliber of my intellect. She had been
on her feet since 8 o’clock, working hard all
the while, pulling down goods, carrying
them about, making up people’s minds for
them, being continually crowded and jostled
and asked four hundred thousand questions
on as many different subjects, and yet at 3
o’clock, when I left her, she was gentle, civil,
obliging and ready to do anything asked of
her, with apparently as much interest in get-
ting the things for my house as I had my-
self. I doubt if there are many women in

Across the hiexican Boundary.
The last place at which om- train drew up,
that: proved by far the most interesting, was
Tia Juana, part of which lies in the United
States and part in Mexico. As we all trooped
across the border we were cautioned not to
get tangled up in the lines; several of us
stood up on the flat, square monument that
marks the dividing line, and far away could
be seen the tall, white marble monument
that marks more majestically the national
limits.
Aswe bent our heads under the flag of
Mexico, we found ourselves in an utterly
strange and novel environment. Behindus
were American frame buildings, the Amer-
ican himself, with all his prosaic, pushing,
attributes; before us spread the low, white
somnolent adobes, groups of cattle beneath
awnings of verdant boughs, and the swurthy
Mexican under broad sombrero, booted and
spurred, riding like mad on his Mexican
mustang, with lasso hurled after some rec-
creant beast, or reclining with a dolcc far
nicnte air under an arbor Of green branches
-—-a picturesque, posing figure, with scarlet
kcrchief hiding the glitter of a dirk, while
he indolently quaffed his beloved pulque.
The place \ 'as made up Of a series of poor
little struggling adobes, and the people were
all evidently of the poorest class; but there
were on every hand elements of the pic—
turesque. From the poorest, most crumb-
ling, least habitable home, pretty dark eyed
Mexican girls in picturesque blues and reds,
smiled out upon us, and everywhere were
bowcrs of green, sometimes with a horse
tethered beneath, sometimes with groups of
dark visaged senoras in gay gowns tucked
up above their well turned ankles, bending
over Iheirwashtubs. Ithink it was one of
the prettiest pictures I ever saw—a crowd of
these handsome women, in their bright cos-
tumes, gossiping and laughing—at us per-
haps—as they leaned over their foaming
suds, against the background of a summer
sky. Surety an artist might find in such
grouping a bit of color to delight his soul.—

Mosby’s Plan of Campaign.
“My purpose,” said Mosby, “was to Weaken
tho armies invading Virginia by harassing
their rear. As a line is only as strong as its
weakest point, it was necessary for it to be
stronger than 'I was 'at every point to resist
my attacks.” He tells in these words what he
sought to accomplish, and 110w he proposed
to accomplish it. . _
“I endeavored, as far as I was able, to di-
minish the aggressive power of the Army of
the Potomac, by compelling it to keep a large
force on the defensive. I assailed its rear, for
there was its most vulnerable point. My men
had no camps. If they had gone into camp
they would soon have all been captured.
They would scatter for safety, and gather at
my call like Children of the Mist. A
blow would bestruck at a weak or unguarded
point, and then a quick retreat. The alarm
would spread through the sleeping camp,
the long roll would be beaten or the bugle
would sound to horse, there would be mount-
ing in hot haste and a rapid pursuit. But
the partisans generally 'got of]! with their
prey. The pursuers were striking at an in-
visible foe. I often sent small squads at
night to attack and run in the pickets along
a line of several miles. or course, these
alarms were very annoying, for no human
being knows how Sweet sleep is but a soldier.
I wanted to use and consume the northern
cavah‘y in hard work. I have often thought
that their fierce hostility to me was more on
account. of the sleep I made them 1050 than
the number we killed and captured. It has
always been a wonder with people how I
managed to collect my men after dispersing
them. The true secret was that it was a
fascina's'ng life, and its attractions far more
than counterbalanced its hardships and dan-
gers. They had no ’camp duty to do, which,
however necessary, is disgusting to soldiers
of high spirit. To put them to such routine
work is like hitching a race horse to a plow."

within one or two of that number of candles
could be set up on end on one-half the sur-

A Chance to Make Money.
There has not: in many years, been a better
opening for a giantathali now, so the show-
men say. Any man who measures 7% feet .
can almost fix his own price. That stature
has never been exceeded 55 far as modern
authentic history tells, except by Chang, the
Chinaman, whom Barnum exhibited for sev-
eral years. He lacked only three inches of
being 8 feet. Chang was an educated man-
darin of refined tastes, and after accumulat-
ing $50,000, enough to make him a Vander-
bilt in China, he returned to his native land.
N 0 offers have since tempted him to become
an exhibit again, and he used to declare that
only a desire to journey in all civilized lands
induced him to make his tour, which lasted
six years. Peter Feketi, the Hungarian
giant, whose death was reported recently,
was to come to America during the winter.
He was 7 feet 4 and very heavy. The
American giants of recent times, Capt.
Goshen and Anna Swan, were all less than
that in stature, and they are all dead of con-
sumption, the common destroyer of such
overgrown persons. There is not at present

“Coaving Glass Into Cloth.
Mr. Dubus Bonnet, of Lille, France, has
invented a process of spinning and weaving
glass into cloth. The warp is composed of
silk, forming the body and groundwork, on
which the pattern in glass appears, as cflected
by the weft. The requisite flexibility of glass
thread for manufacturing purposes is to be
ascribed to its extreme fineness,as not lem than
from fifty to sixty of the original strands are
required to form one thread of the weft. The
process is slow, for no more than a yard of
cloth can be produced in twelve how's. The
work, however, is extremely beautiful and
comparatively cheap. A French paper, com-
menting on the discovery, says: “When 'we
figure to ourselves an apartment decorated
with cloth of glass and resplendent; with
light, we must be convinced that it will
equal in brilliancy all that the imagination
can conceive and realize; in a word, the
wonders of the enchanted palaces mentioned

LOOK TO YOUR WAGES.
Workingmen Attention! Here Is Boyle-
thfng Worth Reading:
The father of the Mills free trade bill, R.
Q. Mills, of Texas. in a speech at East St.
Louis, 111., Sept 25, said:
"Then we will put our own intelligent and
skillful and productive labor in this country
upon a plane of equality with the laborers of
all other countries."
This is the ultimate aim and purpose of the
present free trade crusade.
It means putting our steellworkers on an
equality with the 00 cent a day steel workers
of Belgium. .
It means putting our millers on an equality
with the 47 cent a day millers of the great
flour producing center of Europe, Buda-
Pesth.
It means putting our paper makers on an
equality with the 50 to 55 cent a day paper
11181:ch of Belgium, Norway and Sweden,
who now send large quantities of paper to
this country annuallyfiwtwithstandmg the
protective tarifl'.
It means placing the weavers in our cotton
mills upon an equality with those OLA-1W
Lorraine, who work from twelve tofourteen
hgurs a day for 51 cents on the average; with
those of England who receive 77 cents a day.
and of Italy who receive 25 cents a. day.
It means putting our woolen mill Opera-
tives on a level with the 81 cent Woolen
workers of England.
It means putting our flax, linen and hemp
workers on an equality with the 50 cent a
day operatives in these industries in Eng-
land.
It means putting our boot and shoemakcrs
on an equality with those of England who
earn 81 cents a day, and of continental Eu-
rope who earn from 50 to 80 cents a day.
,lt means putting our masons and carpen-
ters on a level with the $1.10 labor Of these
trades in England and 50 to 70 cents a day
wages of‘EuropO.
It means placing cur machine blacksmiths
on a level with those of Scotland who earn a
$1.08 a day.
It means placing our first class machinists
on a level with those of Scotland who earn
$1.20 a day, and of continental Europe who
earn Of cents a day.
It means that our printers shall Work for
90 cents a day as in England. ' ,
It means that laborers about our factories,
shops and public works shall toil day in and
day out as they do in England for 72 cents a
day, and on the continent for 25 to 50 cents a
da . .
It means that our rolling mill men shall
work for 57 cents a day and our iron molders
for 80 cents, as they do in Europe. ,
It means that our wives and children shall
go into the shop, the factory and the field
and work with the men from early morn
till late at night, as they do in every country
of Europe.
It means that our wage earners shall dwell
in hovcls and crowded tenements, and live
on soup and black bread and scarcely ever
taste meat, as they do in Europe.
Workingmen, this is what R. Q. Mills, the
author of the Cleveland-Mills bill, says the
Democratic free traders will do for you if
they can carry the next election and inaugu-
rate Cleveland’s tariff policy. How do you

The Tariff In Australia.
In comparing the protected Uniwd States
with free trade England the conditions of
the two countries are so different as to leave
room for argument w that the
perity of either is '
its policy of free trade or protection. This
uncertainty is, of course, eliminated where
the comparison is made between a. free trade
and a protected country which are
’ otherwise under practically the same
conditions, as is the (ass with the two
Australian colonies, Victoria and New
South Wales. Their soil, climate, sins
of finhabitants, government. industries and
commercial advantages are practically the
, same. Victoria has anarea of 88,196 square
miles and New South Wales 323,437. In 1837
the latter had a population of 76,000 while
the former hada little more than 500. In
1350 Victoria separated from New South
Wales and set up as a colony by herself. In
1867 she adopted a policy of protection while
the mother colony has always adhered to
free trade. Although New South Wales had
nearly four times the area and fully fifty
years the start in the race with her rival,
Victoria now has airequal population and
2,405,157 acres of land under cultivation
against 868,093 acres in» the older colony.
New South Wales hasa total of 8,483 fac-
brics employing 90,698 hands, while
Victoria has 5,783 factories, employing 51,-
469 hands. The exam of imports over ex-
ports in New South Wales is 834,000,000 an-
nually, and in Victoria 812,000,000. Add to
all this the free trade'bolony reported a de-
ficit on its balance sheet for 1887 of Moon»,
and for the same ya! the protected colony
showed a has dsome surplus of receipts over
expenditures. So WHO have been
the effects of the two systems after twanty-
ono yeais’ trial side by side, that New South
Wales is now adopting a system of ad vale
rem taxation for revenue purposes equivalent
to{tho protective duty of Victoria. The
above facts are from The Australian Hand-
book and are authentic. They need no com-
ment—Cincinnati Times Star. '
