What we were about to call attention to was tbe last sentence of the paragraph quoted. Whether an increase in the total amount of wjges distributed is of general benefit or not depends on hjow many more men than heretofore must work to get those wages.

If, as under the policy of the Republican party to protect everything but labor, there have been large importations of "pauper labor" from the Old World into New York factories, then an increase in the total amount of wages paid might mean a reduction of wages to individuals because of the many more men employed. The fact is, after straining every point, the Republican organs have been able to show less than half a dozen increases in wages in New York State protected industries since the Mc-Kinlev bill went into effect.

Editor: After cool and mature deliberation I find that I have been misled by the false representations of the Third party lenders, so I announce to my fellow citizens that I have withdrawn from and severed my connection with that partv. I will state as briefly as possible the reasons that 'one this change of views. I realized the distressed, impovei ishtd and oppressed condition ol our people, and knew it was due to unjust sectional and pernicious class legislation, and in mv dilemma grasped the idea of a People's party that we were told would not his in tbe true sense. It has been wrung from the consumer bv tbe robber tariff. Carnegie's immense profits under the high tariff have been unearned by any-work of his except in making "fat fry" contributions to tbe Republican campaign fund.

Orover Cleveland hit the bull's eye that time. Lucu B. Smith, editor of the Civil Reform Chronicle, says in the Forum of President Harrison that "he has been a willing leader with a purpose to use the full power of the Federal patronage to accomplish, first, personal, and, second, party ends." "Indirect blackmailing by campaign committees goes on too steadily and too publicly not to be known to him."

While standing in tbe lobby of one of Asheville's hotels a few days ago I beard a traveling man relate to the clerk an experience be bad bad tbe afternoon before with one of Asheville's Terr numerous hackmen who camber the ground around the passenger depot upon tbe arrival of every train. This gentleman said h- had come in on tbe late train.

and. there being no street car at that end the line just then, he decided to take a cairiage. He did this without inquiring the Jehu's rate of charge. He was takrn t6 one of the hotels of the city, unloaded, and charged, what do you suppose?

SEPTEMBER 29.1892. A SPECIAL INSTANCE. "The Democrat plan of destroying the industrial system of the country by the extirpation of protection as an unconstitutional fraud this including, of course, the abolition of the reciprocity treaties and thp proceedings for the re-establishment of a commercial navy surely cannot find favor with the enlightened people of the United States." This paragraph, by Murat Halstead, illustrates the despcratio of the Republican speakers in their determined attempt to prejudice the business interests of the country against the Democrat party. "Tbe proceedings lor the rc-es-tablishmcnt of a commercial navy" were begun by the introduction of the necessary bill by whom? A Republican No; by a Democrat, and we believe that every Democrat who was given the opportunity has voted lor the measure. As to reciprocity, il has amounted to nothing Of course the Democrats have no plan, nor ever had.

In his judicial decisions he has always stood for the nghtsof the individual as against the corporation, and, as a citizen, tor honesty t- politics and for purity in elections i feyy years ago as an incorrupt ible judge, and he would have been on the Supreme bench long ago if he had not excited the jealousy of Harrison as a raan compelled a resect that the President could neve; hope to have ac- corded him. Such a man as Gresham has no business iu the Republican party, I and we hcyie it is ti getting out of it. ue that he intends I The Citizen heaps that the people of the eastern part of the State who are really Democrats feci greatly encouraged over the size of the Weaver demonstration in Raleighlast week. It had been extensively advertised that every county in the State would be represented by scores and thousands of Third party men, and that the total of the crowd would be anywhere from fifteen to twenty thousand.

The most desperate efforts were made to get out every man who would probably vote for Weaver, and the result was that not to exceed two thousand Third party-men heard the villifier of the South speak at the capital. It seems probable that the strength of the Weaverites in this State has been greatly over-estimated. North Carolinians, resident in Baltimore, have subscribed over twelve hundred dollars and forwarded it to Chairman Simmons of the Democratic Hxecu-tive committee "as a fund to be used to maintain white supremacy in North Carolina." In so doing they take tbe opportunity of hoping that "the people of our dear State, mindful of our glorious record in peace and war, will rally around tbe banner of Democracy to shield the State and save ber from tbe combination of Radicalism and Weaver-ism which threatens to destroy not only good government but peace and prosperity within her borders." November should return the right answer to this generous act. YVjiex Lieut. Peary, now of Arctic fame, was recently asked what was the value to commerce of 'the result of his trip across Greenland, he very sensibly replied that it had no value.

Some additions to science have been made by nearly all tbe successful Arctic explorers, but the great stimulant to trips to the.North Pole is simply this, that there is a secret to be revealed, a problem to be solved, a riddle to be read; and the Anglo-Saxon mind is so constituted that it cannot rest till the Pole is reached or the futility of attempting to rcuch it is fully demonstrated. It is the honest belief of J. B. Cranfill, Prohibition candidate for vice-president, that there can be little doubt not a shadow of a doubt, he says of the election of Grover Cleveland. As an observer, prejudiced somewhat against Mr.

Cleveland's chances, tbe opinion of Mr. Cranfill is valuable. He has been travelling all over he United States and has had a good opportunity to observe the trend of public opinion; he sees that it points all one way. Speaking of imposing a Republican high tariff for the benefit of a few, Mr. Cleveland's letter of acceptance says: "Tbe struggle for unearned advantage at tbe door of tbe Government tramples on the rights oi those who patiently rely upon assurances' of American equality." That is it tbe "unearned advantage." The greatest beneficiaryof protection does not earn the benefits; bis profit under it ia 1 rectiv due to the Kepulilican partv, as earners ol mis country.

I will vote the National Democratic ticket because the period of that party's rule is the history of cur greutest prosperity, and Inca use it has ever been the friend of the masses. I will vote for Grover Cleveland be-eausc he saved $83,000,000 surplus under a 47 per cent, tariff, while Harrison will have a $130,000,000 deficit under a CO per cent, turiff.

Had a tariff bill been adopted, giving them free raw materials, they would have lx-en able, in the opinion of Mr. Sandford, to keep on and place their products in foreign markets. This was the largest wool hat f.ictory in the United States, running continuously since lsuo, employing an average of operatives, paving over SlOO.oijil ier annum in Wages, and large sums hr taxes and other expenses incident to the conduct of aHjusiness ofS such magnitude.

Conceive the howl that would have none up bad this happenened under a Democratic administration A HONORABLK, David Mastin of Philadelphia is to have charge of thedirtv Republican work in New York State. He was once thus described by a Republican, speaking in the presence of President Harrison "He is a disreputable rascal a ruffian at the polls a manipulator of ballot boxes a dispenser of corruption funds a willing tool of that element in the social life of Philadelphia which defies law, order and decency." This man is now spoken of by the New York Tribune as "the Hon. David Martin," and tbe Brooklyn Times, a republican paper, says of him "Democratic abuse of David Martin is the most gratifying feature of the campaign that has recently been developed. If Martin is the kind of man they sav he is the Republican party needs him in New York City." This a significant admission.

"They ay" and "tbey" are not only Democrats but decent Republicans as well that Martin is a man who debauches the ballot box at every favorable opportunity; th-jt he buys up voters and is a man after Elocks-of-five Dudley's own heart. Virtually conceding this, a Republican organ says that if fartin is that kind of man "the Republican party needs him in Iww York City," for, of course it means, similar work. Tbe Republican party is preparing to carry tne tnatc 01 Atw ujrn oy dishonest methods. WAUEH AND THE II'KINIXV BILL. A speaker at a Republican meeting in New York city the other night, trying to prove some good of the McKinlev bill, aid: "Actual statements from a large num-lr of manufacturers in this State prove that there have been many increases in tbc rate of wages, but whether that were true or not, that $6,000,000 addi tional bat been paid ont in the State of New York for wages means that it has brought plenty to hundreds of homes and laboring; people.

And I submit to the laboring men and to every other class of our people whether or not it is not quite as much benefit to tbe country, it not more, that there shall be an increased distribution of wages among 1a-oring men, whether that increases be in the actual amonnt distributed or in an increase of tbe rate per capita." It is a pity tbe speaker did not name tbe manufacturers who have i given "many increases in tbe rate of wages" ia New York State, for there baa been a demand for just such information for ohm time and it i baa not been forth- printed in another column, is publisher of the Chicago Herald and the Post, is I in midst of the Illinois tight and in posi-' tion to know whereof bespeaks.

After a long period of peace, when our overburdened countrymen ask for relief and a restoration to fuller enjoyment of their incomes and earnings, they are met by the claim that tariff taxation for the sake of protection is an American system, the continuance of which is necessary in order that high wages may be paid to our workingmen and a borne market be provided for our farm products.

There is no limit to Republican money and tbc tbe question now is: Vt here can it do the most good? Harrison and his gen erals are alarmed about the North. Tbey have given up New York. Harrison is shaky as to Indiana, too, and expects grief to Republicanism in Colorado, Ne vada, North Dakota and possibly Kan sas and Nebraska.
