Tim iisuo in thin ostnpuiga ii thu Ro- publicin record of the test four yean. It is » very bsd record. It la a record of wrong-iloiug, of unfair favoritism in legialntion and of scandaloua misconduct in administration; a record of reckless aquanderinsr; of the ileliauchmcnt of the public service; of corruption in offi’.e end in getting oiHee, and of shameful malpractices in the atto apt to retain power regardless of the popular will. Thu Administration and the Fiity-Hrst Congress cun) Into power by plain pur chase. Too Republican Party In lBciB secured its triumph by soiling legislation abort. Abandoning all that it bad piofesso I and all that its loaders, living and dos'd, had taught concerning the limitations of right in tariif legislation, it (remit n platform in Chicago in which it odero I to monopolists such tariif rates as they should desire for thcironrichovsnt at the expense of the peoplo, in return for con tributions to the campaign fund. Tne offer wot accepted. Too money was paid, and with it the notorious em bezzler .and corruptionist, Matthew quay, with his lieutenant, Dudley, was set to buy thu election. When the fun is ran low John Wanamakcr purchase 1 an option on a Oiblnot oliiio by securing an additional contribution of 41110,0(11 from thu louyurs of legislation upon a margin. Wnon tho Congress thus elected came together tho Republican majority was too narrow and uncertain to do thu worn it iia 1 promised, it could not deliver tho legislative go ids it had sold to mon opolists without resort to further un fairness and wrong. Tt proceeded to un seat members of the minority whom thu people had elected and to sent Republi cans whom the puoplu had refuse 1 to elect, and not a man in all the majority was bravo or honest enough to rnise a voice in protest. When the time came for debate the majority decided not to permit debate, lest tho truth be made plain to thu peo- pie. The rules of tho House were revolu tionized. A dictator of peculiarly «rb : - trary will was placed in the chair who 1 suppressed discussion, overrode nil coi- elderatious of fairness, changed tln| House from a deliberative body into a mere machine for recording his defer- minntiuu, and thus onacto 1 thu m mural of monopoly which the party had boon paid in ndvaneu to pass. In two short yours this Con gross biju in- dared an ouorinous surplus, reduced the, treasury to the sorest straits, laid heavy] burdens upon the people and upon in-; dustry and made a determined, though! fortunately a fruitless, ellort to rob tiie ■everal States of tho right of free elec tions in order to secure for the Rspubll-J can Party a longer lcaao of powar. It’ sought to buy votes for tho futuro by. pension legislation of the most reckless; and unjust character, whose shadow; hangs line a pall over the finances of the: oountry and must c nburinss its prosper ity for a generation to come. The Administration thus elected tlo-i Hvorod to Wanamakor tho Cabinet otHca! he had bought, put Tauneriuto tho Pen-! elon Onion, with his exultant exclama tion, “Goa help tho surplus!" not uponj his lips, and when his ncandalous mis conduct mado his removal a necessity, j S ut Ilium thero instead, to work still. >rgor mischief fu loss vociferous fash ion, and to flit the oflieo with ipocili- tteus, peculations nud so indats so shame-] ful that oveu tho Reed Congress could not bo dragooned mto palliating thorn. And, in spitoof further and more Mi grant expositVo, R-.uin is in olUuo still 1 The Administration turns tuto power protesting most solemnly its purpose to enforce the Civil Service taw iu letter] aud spirit, nud to extend its scope ami influence. It straightway set Clarkson at work to behead postmasters at a rate wholly uuproccdoutod. The President openly farmed out tho Federal otfieus as spoils to sued bosses as Quay and Platt, and quartered bis own relatives and partners aud chums upon the public ser vice. When tho Civil Service Commis sion discovered the most flagrant an 1 shameless abuses iu Uilthnorc and urged thu removal of numbers of persons Lay name lor proved misconduct amounting to criminality—misconduct perpetrated in the name and ou behalf of the Ad niiuistrution—the whole matter was jauntily put asirto by Wimainakcr, and the President in no way interfered to re deem Isis pledge or to Ireo himself from the soarne of it ull. Dudley was ono of tho agents in tho purcuase of Mr. Harrison's siluction, and he was found out. Mr. Harrison lias since refused to hold inti mite personal relations with tho “Blocks ot Five" statesman, but through his Attorney Geitorul and former law partuor iso has interfered with tho administration of justice in Dudley's case, has caused a judge upon the bench to shield aud pro tect crime, nod has since rewarded that judge for his corrupt subservseucy by elevating him to a higher judicial posi lion. And within those later months the country has seen tho Pieudcnt organize tho Civil Service i ito a political uii chiue, an i with it oa.npel lain owu nomination fur a second term. From the very beginning Mr. Ilar- rison has used the appointing power as n means of securing a second term for himself. lie rosortod at the outset t* davico justly denounced by the elder President of his name as wrong and daugerous. Ho muzzled tho press of 1m own party go far as criticism of his administration was concerned. Ho made sure of the support of tho prominent Republican newspapers for all his ambitions by putting thoir editors under obligations to himself for high office, carrying with it pecuniary rewards, tioliticial advantages or social distinc tion, according to the known need and desire of each of his bonoSciaries. In certain directions he filled the foreign sorvioo with incapable man to oblige unworthy interests. Ho sent Mizner to Central America, and kepi him there long after tho country had Ifivon express's.! i to its disgust and kmiliation with ttie conduct of an perican Minister who, in the interest i speculative syndicate, sacrificed tho hor of thu Xation aud the flag, lie seat E gaa and McCreery to Chile, |h results grievously hurtful both to |good name and to the commercial Knits ot the country. T i Wans tinker ho has adds 1 Elkins as a Cab ur, officer—Elkins, a politic il a ive nuror and speculator, who had gin vn ric s out of politic! without hav ing Woo res,sect enough anywhere to miic his in ,n suggestive ovon of poui- Isiistiisi iu connection with honorable of fice. He made Porter tho Buporinton- deul of tho Census, knowing him to bo an already discredited manipulator of statistics, a foreign advanturor destitute of convictions and ia sciroh of a market for Ilfs peculiar abilities, a man at that very time conducting b s iness as a vul gar wine tout in combination with poli tics and ready to placard his advertise ments in this Executive Mansion itself. He permitted this man to falsify tho cen sus of great States by way of robbing them of their just representation and thus increasing the chances of t sat party's succoss to whose servico ho had iiired himself. It is a sad and shameful story o( pledges broken; of fiscal legislation bar tered for campaign funds; of a'ections socurod by tho purchase ot VJtora; of high office in l ie the subject of vulgar traflic; of tho public service, including thu most honorable places, prostituted to the promotion of tho President's personal ambitions; of n court converted Into n sanctuary for tno protection of a scoun drel; of judicial subserviency rewarded with high judicial place; of debate sup pressed m Congress; of a surplus squiu- dure I, an I of l ie enormous inoreaso of the puople'e tax hurdeus that tho pro ceeds might flow into thu coders of favored monopolists willing to suare their spoil with tho political organization tlmt made its collection possible. it is a grievous indictment tnat is lioro ina ie, but it is perfecily true and it covers hut u part ot the truth.

Tno whole rocird will be laid bare—that record whici the poeplo by thoir votes in November are to approve or condo nn.

And thoy •till constitute the Adminiatratlon ma chine In Baltimore and Maryland politics. In brief, tho Administration is what it has been. It proflts still by the practices for which honest hum iu both parties have ooudsnsnod it in the past, it pro tects its scoundrels and its law-broakor*. It koops them in oflioo. It uses them in politics. It sanctions their creeds and their performances. It sent tliain and such ns thorn to Minneapolis to nominate Mr, Harrison lor a socoud term in spite of any desire the Republican Party mighl have for some other candidate. It still looks to tho monopolies it has fostered for tho money with which to carry tho election. In their behalf it liiii not only made laws, but bos noglected auiUl'ofiucd to onforco such laws as thero are on thu statute booksndvorso to them. The coal conspiracy lias boon forme l during this Administration. Without lo or hindrance it has levied a tribute upon the people iu face of tho uuti-Trust law. That lnw mokos it tho imperative duty of tho Attoruey-Goncral, through the District Attorneys, to bring criminal prosecutions against all tho conspirators; hut no District Attornoy has moved, and tho Attorney-General weakly protests tdant ho has no information touching tho conspiracy. In tho interest of good government it is necessary to chastise oflichil miscon duct by defeat. Tho men and the party now in power must bo sont into retire ment for tho public good.

Tho Tariff anil tits Farm *r. A Pensylrauiu Democrat writes tho Courier-Journal for information upon the following points : “ 1. How does tho tariff affect tho grain farmers as compared avitla the cot ton growers? “2. How nro tariff rebates regu lated? “3. What articles of trade, oither produced ou tho farm or manufacture 1, cau bo sold in tho English market cheaper than in thu American market? I mean American goods." 1. The tariff affects grain farmers aud cotton growers alike iu this, that ii robs both. It is true that thero is o tariff on corn, wheat and oats, on the pretense of protecting thorn, but they need no protection, because they are oxportod in largo q uantitics and sold iu competition with tho grain of other countries. Whenever a com no liity can be exported in large quantities, it is be cause it is produced m ire oliea ply here I than it is abroad. In the Inst fiscal j year we exported 157,00*'. 0 )J bushels of whoat, worth $it>i,00D,0Q 0, besides 15,0i)U,0JU barrels of it iur, w orth $5 000,000; also 75,OOJ,UJ) bus.,els of corn, worth $41,500,000, and nearly 3.000,00J.0J0 pounds of cotton, worth $258,000,000. We were enabled lo do this because these commodities were cheaper in tho United States than iu the couatriea to which they were sent; tho j price abroad, less fraight, commission ; and other charges, being tho price re alise 1 for turn isoro. it is mu souse to talk of protect ng cut s goilt against tuoso tnat are dearer; by the uatural laws of tra te com no.litfei seek the mar kets whore pricoi are best. Cotton Is on tho free list, while wheat is nomi nally protected by a duty of twenty-five cents a bushel; hjtcntton is ai effectu ally protected by its cheapness ns wnoat, an I neither is protected by tho tariff. Where the robbery comes in is in th* tax on tbo goods wiiicb farmers receive for their grain and cotton. Wo sent abroad last year, in rouud numbers, $300,000,000 worth of products of agri culture of ail kinds. What did wo got in return? Did we got our pay in gold? No; wo exported imro gold and silver than wo imported. We had to tak« foreign merchandise in oxchntige, aud on all dutiable goo ii the tariff ex ic ted a duty of nearly fifty per coat. Thus, of the $101,000,000 worth of w heat ex ported, trie fatmers, if paid io dutiable goods, would get hac< only about $110,- 000,000 wortn, tho rumiiuder being necessary to pny the duties. It is truo that all Imports aro not du'.i iblo; hut it is also truo that tno farmers pay to do mestic manufacturer! mtioh higher prices tor goods obtaincl from tno n than similar goods would cost abroad; so tjat a reduction of one-third from tho purchasing power of our agricultural ex ports does not by any meins represent tho exaction which the tariff utakos of tho farmers. 2. Wnon imported mote rial is used in tuo manufacture of an ar tide, ninety- nine per coat, of tno duties pu d on such material is roiun led wnon tue article is uxporie 1. 3. Miny agricultural hnpte.nau ts, saw ing mtcoinus, aud imoy other articles, are sold auroail at lower prices than at homo. Tuis has boon denied, but it lias been proved beyond question ; mid some protectionists al.nit uni defend it as proper. The rebato ot dutios on import ed malarial contributes to ruudur this possililo; but it also liappoiis iu tho caso of articles oil which no renatu is puld, because high tariffs enable too m nniifno- turur to exact exoo ssivo profits at Immo, wniio abroad, wncro the tariff gives him no advantage, ho is co a pulled to take a reasonable profit.—Oou n er-Journal, It I* n Stimulant. Mr. Mason, one of tho Itapublioau stumpers, declares tlmi “tile tariff is not a lax but a stimulant. ” A truo word. Tito tariff stimulates campaign con tributions from its beneficiaries, tho pro tected millionaires. The fat-friers know this. it, stimulated Oarnugio to buy castles in Scotland and to sot up ns a money lord in England while reducing wages at home. It stimulates manufacturers to shoddy- izc their goods and raiso thoir priests. It stimulates thu tariff and tho usurer to collect the debts of its victims. It puts tbo stimulant of uccossRy upon workingmen to secure thu extra cost of their necessaries due to exactions. Mr. Mason is only half right. Tho tariff is both a tax and a stimulant. Th« Result of Tariff Taxation. Experts estimate that during the laet thirty years upwards of five billion dol lars have been paid into tho United States Treasury as tho result oi tariff taxation. The same authorities tali us that for every dollar thus paid into the Treasury, from $8 to $5 profit has gone into the pocket* of the protected home manufacturers, or, altogether, the anor- inous sum of thirty-one billion dollars, is it any wonder that twenty-live thous and individuals now owu one-half of all tho property in this country?

The test of the Isckots wns slipped over the breech of tiie great thirtcen-lncb gun nl the nsvy yard a few days ago, end the immense piece of ordetmnee is now nenriug c- mpletion. The work is one of more than usual interest and ev ery step is being carefully watched by Captain Sampson, inspector in charge at 'he yard. The gun will be the largtst ever made in this country. Fifteen inch guns wi re made during the war of cast iron, but they were smooth bores and from any point of view, except in regard to calib r, they were insiguifleant when compared with the gun now oo tho lathe at the navy yard. This modern steel ri fle is made of thirteen separate pieces of metal cxc'uaivc of a complex carriage, it consista of a central tube over which nrc shrunk hands of jackets of vnrione shapes. The joints are so exsetiy match ed thut the gun appetit* to be but one piece of metal. Its total length is neat ly forty feet, its diameter at tbo lirct-ch is an inch more thin four feet and it ta pers to a iliickneas of twenty-one inches at the muzzle. When Anisin d, the gun will weigh nenry one hundred and fifty eight thousand pounds. It n quires more than a quarti r of a ton of powder to load this rifl - for ono dis charge, but that quanity is expected to burl a shell us tall as a good sized boy and weighing 1,100 pounds to is distance of twelve or thirteen mil- s, at tho extra ordinary velocity of 21,000 feet per sec ond. Close at hand this shot would penetrate 20 2-8 inches of solid steel, and at a di tame of a milo and a half from Ilia gun, which is about as far as such guns can lie sighted and fired with seen racy in marine wafare, the shot would still h ive vitality sulflcient to s nsm-li iliruugb tho side- of a ship covered wiih 21 1-2 inches of sieel Hrm ir.
