That man is J. O. Blaine. Mr. Blaine does not want tho presidency; but the people, nnd tho highest interests of the nation, does.

It is, therefore, respectfully suggested to tho candidates who have thought of offering themselves at Chicago that they stand not on their own rights but patriotically consider the Huprume requirement of the hour, nnd gracefully retire from the contest for tho nomination. This is bold request, but the demands of the hour niauo us bold to propose it. The question is not who shall be nominated, but who can bo elected? Meanwhile the Irish World refuses to haul down its flag, even at tho command of onr beloved louder. Tuese are facts! The democratic party has hud control of the house of representatives for six years, during which time the surplus revenues have grown to bo oppressive. In all that timo the party had not been able to present a measure which even the democrats could unite on.

As a party they are consequently responsible for ull the evils of surplus in the treasury vaults and the conse-' quent clangor to tho money market. They are entitled to the credit of having by a crude and in a dangerous way averted actual calamity last year, but they want of statemanship on the part of tho democratic leaders in the basis of the whole trouble. Timo and again the republicans since the war have reduced revenues internal and customs duties, and did so in tho last congress in which they had control of the house. In view of these facts the democratic platform is a tissue of misstatements and a misleading in every way. Topeka Capital.

Democrats to-day are calling from the housetops that they are opposed to a protective tariff, opposed to the principle of protection, and the reason (hey assign for such opposition is, that a protective tariff is a fraud, that is "vicious, inequitable and illogical that it is taxing one industry to support another, a requisition upon tho labor and capital of one man to support his fellows engaged in some other calling. If they do believe in any kind of tariff protection at all it is "incidental protection," a theory announced and advocated in the first message of James K. Polk, who has been elected president on a platform interperted in the eastern and middle states to favor the "tariff of '42." But why do they not say what they mean They oppose protection, they declare loudly, and yet in their national platform indorse the Mills bill, which is in some respects a high protective tariff bill. It is in no sense a revenue tariff measure; it does not pretend to be an incidental protection plan it proposes to levy from twenty five to seventy-five per cent on all manufactured articles which come in competition with like articles in this country. The bill discriminates in fa vor of southern industries, and that is its worst feature, except the removal of duties from wool.

Thero is no pre tense that it is not a protection bill; indeed, even as to free wool, the fram- ers and friends of the bill declare their belief that it is still further protecting the manufacturers of wollen fabrics by giving them cheaper raw material, nnd much better and more steady market for wool. There is enough hypocrisy wrapped up in the democratic platform of 1888 to leaven a party twice as big. If the party would come out plainly and say it is a protection party, its endorsement of the Mills bill would be intelligible and everywhere regarded as honest, but it is absolutely impossible to be opposed to protection and yet favor the platform adopted at St. Louis last week. The two positions are utterly consistent.

The Chicago platform of 18S4 was a declamation in favor of a revenue tariff and that is reaching that plane, the proceedings should be regardful of existing conditions so as. to cause as little' disturbance as possible; but that platform is now re-adopted with the president's message as an explanatory attachment; and the message is a free trade document with a pledge to reach that plane gradually, carefully guarding established industries; that is to say, get to free trade with tho least loss; but got PERSISTENT IS UXE MEN. While all of tho men who are prominent in the republican party believe that Blaine, since his last letter cannot be regarded as a candidate and will not accept the nomination, thore is a largo number of the personal admirers of the Maine statesman, men who are not, identified with political management, who still insist that he will bo nominated, are working to tint end. They expect that there will be such a division of the convention in favor of personal and state that no nomination can bo made for several days, and when; it is discovered that this cuanot be done the whole- convention will turn to Blaine and nominate him by acclamation. This is what they hope, and many of those who hope for this will be in Chicago to work to bring it about.

The most remarkable thing about this movement is that those who are in it are business men rather than those are active in politics Several papers are openly advocating this policy, as the following double leaded appeal of the Irish World ot New York show: Protection to American industries is essential to tho well-being of this country. British free trade will bring ruin to hot wage-payers and wage-earners. Opposed to the policy of protection is the free (r ide administration at Washington, with other agencies on either side of the ocean. The Irish World believes there is one man, BRUKD10E 4 BEAR, H.
