Dear Sir:--The enclosed newspaper clipping is from the Chicago Inter Ocenn of this date. As an old soldier who has up to this date voted the Democratic ticket in the belie! thfot the victors could afford to be magnanimous to the van­ quished, I write to ask you if the fact is true that your paper published the arti­ cle as quoted, and if you will do me the kindness to state the object or purpose you had in view in the publication. Yours Truly, N. C. Warner. * The following is the clipping referred to from the Durham, (N. C.) Globe: "But between Harrison and Cleveland first, last, and all the time--I am for the brave Buffalo man who slapped the dirty pensioners, who, for the most part, are beggars, in the face. * • * * » Thev were dirty and lousy rascals who came into this country and who abased wom­ en, who burped homes, who stole all that was in sight and to-day, without an honorable scar, are bleeding this country, and I am helping to pay for it. Let the hired yankees howl, I am of the South and for the South; and "until my blood is cold I shall fight for honesty and for a White Man's Country." In reply to Major Warner's letter, the editor of the Durham Glolte mafces the" following sneering retort: "Magnanimous indeed! We want the sneaks and lousy beggars at the North who ravished our women and burned our homes and plundered our people, to shut their gnat blowii mouths and let the truth be told. And the Glolte, which des­ pises this burglary and grand larceny called the pension system, proposes to see to it that Grover Cleveland site in the saddle the next four years and slaps all the dirty beggars in the face. The pen­ sion fraud must go. Go, and it should go, to the depths of hell, and Harrison and his hirelings should go with it." This is the sentiment of Southern Dem­ ocrats which no loyal man can endorse or support and which the people will stamp with disapproval next November. m* Labor Commissioner Feck, of New York, when seen by a reporter Friday, said he did not care to talk about the re­ port which he recently made on the effect of tariff on labor and wages. He was asked, however, to make some reply in answer to the criticisms which had re­ cently .been made upon his report. "1 was entirely unbiased when I made my report," Mr. Peck said, "and I did not stop to consider what effect it would have on political parties. Neither Mr. Hill nor anyone else knew what was in my report until it was published. I am a Democrat, and I made the report ac­ cording to my convictions and fulfilled what I believed was my duty. I am will­ ing," continued Mr. Peck, "to have a committee from each of the political headquarters investigate my work." The Rockford Republican says: ^Carter Harrison was thrown from a horse Saturday in Chicago and his right •rm was fractured. Carter' is having some narrow escapes from serious acci­ dents these days. He almost broke a leg at the fair in this city last Thursday ia trying to pull his foot oat of his mouth." According to Bradstreet's there were fifth-four strikes in this country during August, in which 41,174 men par­ ticipated. The men who left remunera­ tive employment have mach to say about the oppression of the "bloated capitalists" who own manufactories. But investigation brings to light the fact that the majority of stock in most great manufacturing establishments is owned by persons of moderate means, many of them being widows and orphan children. The shares were bought by husbands and fathers now dead, and left as the means of supporting dependent families. Many of the shares in mines, quarries and railway companies are also owned by the same class of persons. Capital in this country is not the exclu­ sive property of a few rich men. M^Some one induced a Milwaukee editor to ask the question: "Why Should an American be required to pay J|25 for a corduroy suit that can be feought in London for $9.50?" There­ upon a dealer in that city offered the •ditor corduroy suits for $9.50 with the guarantee that the material is as good And the making better than the> London article. . •, I®"Senator Hiscock of New York, who was in Washington last week, was dis- ti " J>osed to be jubilant over the outlook in that important state. "Everything is coming our way," said he. "There are no weak places in the Repuplicau line of , Jbattle, and the tariff issue, which the an- • V; una! report of the state commissioner of labor has brought so prominently for- word, will cause thousands of demo­ cratic workingmen to vote for Harrison And Reid. Yes Bir, New York is all right. 19^Hon. A. J. Hopkins spoke at the f)eKalb County Veteran's Reunion at Geqoa last week, and Commander E. R " Morris says that he made one of the best ; ., fpeeehes to the boys that he ever heard. £#? Speaking of the Grand Army he said: "I froiiM rather have the honor of a G. A. ft. comrade than to have the honors* that have been conferred upon me by the Fifth District of Illinois." He further , «aid that he had "heard of one Grand ||v;*;iA.rmy man who left the Order because the 5,, 1 letters 'G. A. R.' meant 'Generally All Republicans.'" Hopkins' heart is all tj;,:. right; he'satrae friend of the old sol ' ' dier; that's why all the soldiers are his a;. friends. A Comrade of the Column. Here is what Mr. Harrison says in his letter about the pensioned veterans of the Union army, who are apoken of as beggars" by the Southern supporters of Cleveland: * The Union soldiers and-sailors are now veterans of time as well as of war. The parallels of age have approached close to the citadels of life, and the fnd, for each of a brave and honorable struggle ia not remote. Increasing infirmity and years give the minor tones of sadness and pathos to the mighty appeal of ser­ vice and suffering. The ear that does not listen with sympathy, and the heart that does not respond with generosity, are the ear and heart of an alien and not of an American. Now soon again, the surviving veterans are to parade upon the great avenue ot the National Capital, and every tribute of honor and love should attend the march. A comrade in the column of the victors in 1865,1 am not less a comrade now. Fancy Grover Cleveland, the back­ ground to an able Buffalo substitute, writing this interesting subject! II • W The action of President Harrison > 'in regard to the cholera question has . -elicifced universal praise in Washington. jp% He has shown himself a whole hearted man, a prompt leader, and a wise ruler. y . The welfare of the nation is with him i- \ paramount to every personal pleasure or political honor. It may be safely re- "v upon that should a scourge comeup- y" on the United States he will prove to be ptf u a hero in the trouble. His heart and his f#,. rain<* 8X6 with his people, and although |jp l, ; the leader of the republican party he is supremely the head of the nation. Even when engrossed in deep political ques­ tions the close observer may note shadow upon his noble brow and a far away look for a moment in his eyes, and thought is at once carried to Loon Lake where Mrs. Harrison yet remains and invalid. Honors and wealth un­ shared by her lose all charm for him.. It is impossible to say now just when President Harrison can bring his wife hack to the White House; possibly not Pithy. Pointed and Pertlntht. * The New York World appears to have an idea that Mrs. Cleveland occupies a place on the democratic ticket; it's about as near true as the average idea of. that paper. Cleveland Is not greedy in all things. One i'eckof New'York labor was all and more than he wanted. * The country will sustain any action the National authorities may see fit to take to keep the cholera out of the United States; the safety of 65,000,000 people in a more powerful law than any statue upon the hooks of any state. Go ahAf^d Mr, Harrison* the people are right behind you. The cholera got Into Hamburg through the drinking water. If drinking water was the only way that cholera could tfe taken into the human system there are a lot of men who will never be in any dan­ ger from the disease. From present indications the demo­ crats will be compelled to neglect that northwestern rainbow in order to look after^he "solid south.'^ ^ The fact that the Tennessee republi- cms propose making an aggressive cam­ paign ia that state, without asking fi­ nancial aid from the National commit­ tee, is the most promising sign of a break in the "solid south" yet seen on the po­ litical horizon. « It seems that the democratic rainbow chasing in the northwest is to he manip- lated by cable from Chicago. It will not be long before the grip will be found en­ tirely too weak to do the work expected of it. s' The principle trouble with the people's party is that it is not supported by the people. The trath of this paragraph makes amends for its lack of humor. The intelligent voters will see that a perpetual quarantine is established against free trade, and that the quaran­ tine officials are men of tried vigilance and bravery. ' Governor Flower, of New York, has never been credited with being a Solo­ mon; but he is probably too wise to re­ move Labor Commissioner Peck for hav­ ing told the truth. The man to win the trust of the people is the man who is always on hand in an emergency. President Harrrison is a striking example of that kind of men; that's why he will be kept in the White House four years from March 4,1893. Ballot box "stuffing" will hardly be so popular a pastime in the future, in New Jersey, as it has been in the past. Cause: griped clothes. The President's letter of acceptance is good and timely reading for every man who sincerely wishes for the continued prosperity of this country; it is a politi­ cal classic. The democratic National committee is running this campaign on rainbows in­ stead of arguments; the voters demand something more substantial, as the gen­ tlemen will learn when the returns come in. The thing to be done is to keep the cholera out, and the way to do it is to do it. See ? No matter how it be done so it be effectually done. The mugwumps are doing their level best to widen the breach between Cleve­ land and Hill, and republicans are not throwing obstacles in their way; it's not our quarrel. NQfida Department.

Tr&mp! trump!! tramp!!! the boys are marching. ^In the trial of the Homestead strikers at Pittsburg, Pa., Judge Ken­ nedy charged the jury as follows: It is your duty to enforce the laws and to suppress lawlessness, and your find­ ings and determinations must depend upon the legal evidence uninfluenced by fear, favor, affection, hope of personal advantage, personal inclinations, wishes or sympathies, all of which must be by you laid aside. The strikers already see long terms of imprisonment facing them. In v\ew of the charge the grand jury will have to re tare true bills against all of the men. ^ It bets been asserted in Washing­ ton that Harrison has friends in the wigwam," although Cleveland is culti­ vating Tammany. In the days of demo cratic simplicity the great Jefferson rode to the White House on horseback. The present standard-bearer of Democracy would like to "getthere" on the "Tiger." There was a young woman or Niger Who went for a ride on a tiger. But they finished the ride With the lady inside, And a smile on the face of the tiger. I®" A third United States war vessel the Philadelphia, has been ordered to La Guayra. This is a wise move on the part of the government. The present state of affairs in Venezuela is little bet­ ter than anarchy. Already considerable property belonging to foreigners has been destroyed, and the diplomatic corps has entered a protest. It is intimated that England and Spain are both anx ious to take advantage of the situation and an intervention of European powers is among the possibilities. Three A meri can gunboats will be an object lesson to them in the Monroe doctrine. 19" Ex-Speaker Reed,in a speech at Old Orchard, gave utterance to many of the terse epigrams for which he is famous. For instauce: "All the enemy has to do," he said, is to oppose as. It is the business of the democracy to criticise and find fault. An archangel could not suit them. But with 140 majority the democracy did absolutely nothing. They couldn't agree among themselves. They couldn't make up their minds to take a single step. The best thing about them ie that they (Jon't do what they say they are going to no. They talk aboat a 'billion dollar' con­ gress. The only trouble with them is that |he country is too big for the demo­ crats to comprehend its needs. They themselves have endorsed this 'billion dollar' congress by exceeding its outlay. The trouble with the democratic par ty is not viciouSness. It would be harsh to call them liars. They are troubled with lack oi information. Some say truth is simple, but that is not so. It is lies that are simple; and that's why the democracy takes the short cut. "The democrats say they wouldn't mind if a little protection Bhould creep in --like the temperance lecturer who said he didn't drink, but he wouldn't care if somebody pat in a few drops of some­ thing warming unknown to him. "Some people think the American con sumer is only a consumer, sitting in a rocking chair all the time. They want to know that he is a manufacturer as well, and ha*somethitig to sell. "If blankets are selling for fifty cents per pair, and a man has 'not the fifty cents, he is going to sleep cold. 'We do not depend on the price of goods so much as on the size of our purse. Protection is the best system for the prosperity of our country. If you want to continue the good result you have seen in the last thirty years vote the Republican ticket." ALGONQUIN.
