>• Constant Labor Troubles In That
Stats Easily Explained.
Yet, all protectionist state as it is, it
j\ hardly have escaped observation
that Pennsylvania is also the state in
which there have been the most serious
disturbances as regards labor. There
a* most always labor troubles in
Pennsylvania. The excuse for high tar
iffs ot late years is chiefly that high
tariffs are in the interest of labor. Yet
here is a state in*which a high tariff has
been longer relied upon and is applied
to more industries than in any other,
and yet labor in it is more dissatisfied,
more unhappy, more aggrieved and
more turbulent than anywhere else in
the country.
There is a lesson to be learned from
this as regards which there is no excuse
tor mistaking. It is that high protec
tion, when the most fully applied, is a
failure in its effect upon labor. High
protection does enable those who are
assumed to benefit by it to make great
fortunes. No one will doubt that who
knows of the millions accumulated by
the Scotts, the Carnegies and the Besse
mer steel magnates; but while these
princely returns are being realized the
workmen are in a condition which re
sults in chronic discontent, too often
finding vent in bloody outbreaks like
that now appalling the people.
“Bnt why do you attribute this to the
tariff?" we may lie asked. We reply,
first, because in Pennsylvania the tariff
is supposed to doits most complete work.
Here is the test of it, if there is to be a
test anywhere. Pennsylvania is a state
of such resources in her soil, in her min
eral products aud in the character of her
people that industry, if left alone, would
win success there if it will win success
anywhtve. If industry left alone had
failed there, we wonld have been willing
to admit that the failure was the failuro
of the American people engaged in in
dustry when unshackled by government,
and to have looked for the cause of it in
some mistaken action on the part of
themselves.
But when government steps in, and
against the protest of a large portion of
the intelligent citizens of the republic—
including among them nearly all those
who have studied the principles which
apply to the productive labor of men
and have taken pains to observe their
speration in our own and other couc
tries—when government, we say, in the
face of this remonstrance undertakes to
establish another system, under which
enormous fortunes are built up, whilo
labor is constantly dissatisfied and often
in open outbreak, as in the case in Penn
sylvania, it seems to us that we aro jus
tified in holding the action of govern
ment as largely responsible for the
TOM REED ANSWERED
HIS RIDICULOUS CLAIMS PUNCTURED"
BY HOLMAN AND SAYERS.
When the first session of the Fifty-
first congress ended The World predict
ed a deficiency in the treasury. The sec
retaries of the treasury under the pres
ent administration have concealed the
deficiency bv counting among their
available assets uncurrent funds, the
bank note redemption fund and the gold
reserve and by holding up appropria
tions. This fact and its true meaning
have been exposed and explained by
The World from time to time, and now
Representatives Sayers, Dockery and
Holman, after an examination of the
government's accounts for the past two
years, verify The World’s predictions by
showing that there is a real deficiency of
more than $100,000,000.
Last year, because of the extrava
gance of the billion dollar congress,
the secretary was uuable to meet the
requirements of the sinking fund, and
this year ho will fail again to pay the
amount required by law to be set aside
toward the satisfaction of the public
debt.
Messrs, llolmaii. Dockery and Sayers
estimate that the deficiency will be
$50,000,000 besides the sinking fund, if
to this sum there Ik* added the ninouut
of tho sinking fund due for the current
fiscal year, $43,(182,000, the $90,000,000
moneys and moneys owing to reserves
amWrequired for appropriations, the
deficiency on June 80 next will really Ik*
much more than $180,000,000.
Tho result has lieen accomplished by
extravagance. During Mr. Harrison's
administration $05,000,000 less of the
government’s lionds have been retired
than were i«ii«l during Mr. Cleveland’s
administration. Besides this the actual
lack of present funds coiiqielled the ad
ministration to extend $25,801,500 of the
4*2 1** cent, bonds, so that more than
$00,000,000 must lie added to the de
ficiency, together with $34,000,000 repre
senting tho surplus in tho treasury at
tho end of Cleveland's term, in order to
i a conclusion indicative of the rela-
cost of Mr. Harrison’s uud Mr.
Cleveland's administrations.
lu fact, the appropriations for the four
tars of Mr. Harrison’s administration
hnvo exceeded those for the four years
of Mr. Cleveland's term by $141,044,20L

An Experience That lx Burned Into n
AVeeterner*# Memory.
“I had an experience in Nebraska in
1858 that I can see yet whenever I shut
my eyes,” said Maj. Tom Stephens at
the Lindell. “I piloted a parly of emi
grants across the plains and was re
turning alone to the Missouri. It was
a trifle risky, but my business was
urgent, and I was so well mounted that
I had little fear of Indians. It was in
the latter part of September, and as
there had been no rain for two months
the tall grass was like so much tinder.
One night I camped on a small tribu
tary of the Middle Loup. It was a
small, spring-fed rivulet, destitute of
timber and almost hidden by the rank
grass. I had not slept long when I was
awakened by the neighing of my horse.
The advocates of protection in Penn
sylvania, as everywhere else, insist upon
attributing every symptom of prosperity
to the tariff. Do they seriously expect
tliat they are to lie allowed to claim all
tho credit of everything that is good in
its results to the tariff, and to be freed
from the responsibility for all that is
not good at the same time? They have
vaunted of the effects of legislation that
have made Carnegie rich enough to
build a baronial castle and live in Eu
rope. Are they to shirk the responsi
bility for that same legislation when the
effect of it is seen in the turning of
thousands of men out of employment
and the driving them to desperation and
bloodshed? If the tariff did the one, we
respectfully ask why it has not done the
other? The American people are too ii
telligent to be bamboozled in the at
swer to this question.—Boston Herald.

Importance of Achieving Victory.
The importance of achieving \ ietory
is so urgent and the disastrous conse
quences of defeat aro so manifest that
no chances which may aid in winning
the battle must be neglected. The de
pressing effect upon the country and the
party which would inevitably follow a
Democratic repulse in November war,
trutlifully portrayed by Mr. Cleveland
in his speech, and he emphasized the
necessity for “systematic and intelligent
effort on the part of all who are enlisted
ttr cause.” Vigorous fighting and
brilliant campaigning alone will not win
the election. That army fights most
successfully whose forces are most com
pactly organized and whose movements
directed by an intrepid, skillful and
confident commander. The valiant sol
diers of Democracy can safely trust the
wisdom and the courage of tlieir leader
in this campaign.—Chicago Herald.
Thu Wornout Ere# Trad* Howl.
The Republican tendency in tariff leg
islation has unmistakably been toward
excessive protection. It is a tendency
that the Democracy desires to check.
It will be checked without proceeding
toward the opposite extreme. The is»ne
is moderation against excess. The Re
publican platform is embodied in the
McKinley bill. Our opponents must
successfully defend that measure o»* be
beaten. The false and outworn free
trade howl has nothing to do with tho
case. Tariff reform is not free trade.—
Rochester (N. Y.) Herald.
Aa Antplclou* Outlook.
The outlook for the triumph of the
Democratic candidates and Democratic
principles is indeed auspicious. In all
sections of the country nothing but good
reports are heard, and in all sections
Democrats are confident that Cleveland
will be the next president. Tho inde
pendent vote of the country is rallying
around our standard bearer to a greater
extent even than was anticipated. In
every city, village and hamlet acquisi
tions to the Democratic cause urealmoit
daily reported.—Syracuse (N. Y.) Con
tier.
Alone Responsible.
The Republican party is alone respon
sible for all the evils of misgoveroment
in the way of exorbitant taxation and
oppressive and discriminating laws from
which they as a class and tho south as a
section suffer.—Augusta (Ua.) Chron
icle.
