Their brutality and harshness constituted a crowned insult The government vaunted itself on peace in Ireland, yet kept six time more policemen there than in England and Scotland. British paid over a million and a halt pounds yearly to Irish police, simply to assist in collecting rents for landlords. English and Scotch landlords met their tenants fair and had not found it necessary to appeal for policemen to collect their rents. The British landlords had lost more on rents than the Irish landlords had.

This party has increased its majority in the House of Hepn imitative by arbitrarily ejecting Democrats from seats; the stolen representation of me state in the Senate; admitted to the Union states whose only claim to admission is that they will swell the liepublican majority; denied representation to Democratic territories much better qualified for statehood in point of population and resources; ignored tbe rights of the majority methods and the ruling of the speaker of the House; squandered the treasury surplus by extravagant appropriations to conciliate particular interests; enacted a tariff bill w hich will supply corruption funds for the election; conducted the census, denounced everywhere aa worthless and manipulated for counting Republican populations up and Democratic imputations down; him threatened the enactment of a force bill which will put an end to state authority In the certifying of federal elections and oaaUu Congress not a representative of the people, but a creature of what ever man fe.leral officials may choose to count in. J his is the record that confronts the people. Long practice in has enabled Republican hypocr'sy leaders to disguise partisanship patriotic language, but their appeal after all is one to cupidity and selfishness, frightened by disapproval which their headstrong and revolutionary course has arouse 1 in their own party. They are endeavoring to bolster up their bv appeals to sectionalism and party priife. If our institutions are to be preserved pure and intact every patri otic citizen must do his duty in rebuking this grasping and tyranical political oligarogy. After discussing tbe tariff so far as it it relates to the interests of farmers, the governor continued: "But not' only has the republican congress stooiied to a sharper trick to hoodwink the American farmer in regard to the tariffs on his products, but it has made his living even more expensive than it has hitherto been. His woolens pay thirty per cent more duty, while the rich man's broadcloth pays ten per cent more. The duty on sealskin sncques is reduced ten per cent, while that on pilk plush sncques, which the poor woman wears, is increased to sixty per cent. The duty on worsted shawls which the farmer's wife wears is raised from 62 to 80 per cent, and on wjo'.enshaw sthe increise varies from 16 per cent to 30. On women and children s cheap dress goods the increase is much less. For his fiann?ls the consumer must pav an increase at least of 50 per cent In the jduty on ready-madclothing the increase of taxa tiou is from 54 per cent to 84. All over the the country effect of such legislation has been to increase the prices of dry goods and other household necessities. Now all of this increase is perhaps justifiable, but sharp merchants have been quick to take advantage of the opportunity which offered them, and the poor consigner is the victim whether justly or not The McKinley bill has defined sharply the issue upon which two parties are divided. In its enactment the Republican party has demonstrated more clearly than ever that the sympathies of its leaders are not with the great mass of people but with certain favored classes. The economic doctrine which the party now supports ia the one it would have repudiated ten years Cato, y shaky-positio- e y ego. The other partv holds that the home market is already over BUpplied: that high protective duties have produced an unhealthy competition, resulting in an over production, closing of the mills and reduction in wages; it finds great industries languishing because of highly taxed raw material and limited markets; it sees the organization of great trusts reduce competiand combines to extort and tion high pricts; it finds agriculture depressed by reason of the restrictions our goverinent imposes upon the commerce of other nations. Europe is buying more and more of her breads! uffs from Russia, India and Egypt, It suggests the removal of all unnecessary barriers to commercial intercourse; recommends the free admission of raw niaterinls used in manufactures. It will impose higher duties than are necessyry to meet foreign competition on articles we produce.
