In the one mile handicap Bert Gage’s victory over Norton and Ketchuin was such an easy one as to make the race of little interest to spectators.

The: platform adopted by the democratic party af 1884, when Mr.. Cleveland was elected, ” Mr. Doolittle proceeds,1*was ‘ substantially the same as that of Madi son, Monroe, Jackson and Van Buren. The measure proposed by the president in his message of December, 1887, /.and by the bill which has passed: the house, called the ‘Mills bill’ and which were substantially approved by the demp- cratic platform of 1888^ stand upon the same solid ground: where Madison so wisely placed it more than fifty years ago. So far from being a measure to destroy; the incideiital protective system under a ' tariff for revenue, it proposes to leave , the average duties upon goods manufac tured abroad, which come into, compe- titi' n with goods manufactured at home, at 40.. per /cent., anam o u n t sufficient beyond all question to cover the differ- ence in the price of labor and :rates of interest ori capltfij inve.stecl .in favor .of the foreign manufaelurer. /At the same time it giyes to our manufactiirers free •raw m nFpvi q .1 si - • n-mnnor vnf.hAi’a +r» OUl’ ; -Miss .

Smith, of Chautauqiia, who will address a meeting at the Cdiirt House, fin Fri day evening, the 12th Inst./ Dr. Smith is a prominent physician of Westfield, and notwithstanding the fact that he is a near relative of ex-Governor Fefiton, he is and always fias been a staunch and influential democrat. He is a forceful and able speaker, who has already don e effective work in. this campaign in Erie county, Pennsylvaniay the home pf Hon. W* L. Scott. His efforts there have been principally in the direction of securing the election of Hon. Thomas Burns . for Congress, and Hon, Alfred Short as State Senator, both of which Will be accomplished. ML Short, it will fie remembered has twice been elected to the State Senate from that overwhelmingly lppubliean county, on his merits as a gentleman. Dr. Smith reports a large / number of defections from the ranks of Chautauqua republi cans this fall, among whom are tw o , brothers of ex-Governor Fohtbn, nephews and other Relatives/ Another prominent man who has recently re-^ nbunoed / aliegiance to the republican party and declared himself •• strongly for Cleveland, is Hon. Charlek Wqlff, pf Erie county, Pa,, a man well known and of great infiuence. Warsaw democrats need no encouragement, but these facts are none the less pleasing.

The res ignations were handed in because the taxpayers have severely. .criticised the board for levying a tax of ^5500 for* build- reservoirs' in opposition to the wishes of a majority, of the citizens.

I voted for. thatm easure,, that it was urged as; a war necessity, with a distinct * bnclet'Rtantling by all parties thai the high rates would be reduced when 1 the necessity had passed; . when I call to mind that President Lincoln, the ihartyr president, had saicl to the great Aineri- can people, ‘the taxes will be reduced as SQoa as the. tremendous expenditures, of the war will admit of it;’ when I call to mind that no platfbrin of th9 present re publican party ever declared in favor of a high prbtective tariff for nearly twenty- eight years after it was organized from 1856 to 1884, and even then pledged it self to ‘correct the inequalities bf the tariff and to r*d«ce the sufphig*’ and, on the other liand, when I call to mind thjat in 1868, three y^n^ after /the war ws ®4 over, its national platform declared: ‘I t . is due to the. labor of the nation that taxation should be equalized and reduced as rapidly as the national faith will per mit;’ when I pall to mind that General Grant, who was elected on that platforrh and re-elected in 1872> in seven put pf eight of his annual messages, earnestly recommended congress to redeem that pledge; when I remember that in his secdud message in 1870, only five years after the war was over, he said: ‘With a> tax onjjtiquors of all sorts/ and tobacco in all its forms and by a wise adjustmeiit of the tariff which will put a tax only on those articles which we could dispense with, known as laxurles, and those o f which we use: more than we prbdace, revenue enpugh may b e ; raised^ after a few years of peace and consequent re duction of iTRlwbtediies'1, to fiilii.il all our obligations-;’ while in iris fou th m essage lie refers to; these high war; taxes as a ‘vexatious burden on any people;’ while in his fifth message he urged ‘a reVisioh and codification of the tariff laws;* and in his sixth and seventh messages he recommended for the free list, dyes, Chemicals, and ‘those articles which en ter into manufactures of ail sorts saying, ‘ail duty paid upon such articles goes directly to the cost of the article , when manufactured here and must be paid by the cohsumer;’when I call to mind thaft President Arthur in his m essage of 1884 reeoceimended ‘an enlargement: of tlle ; free* list, so as to inehide within it the numerous articles which yield inconsid erable r evenue,. a simplification of the complex and incbusisteut schedule of duties upon certaih manufactures, par ticularly. thbseTof eotton, iron and steel, aucl a substantial reduction of the duties upon these articles, and. upon su g a r ,. molasses, wool and* woolen goods;’/., i . I repeat, sir, when I call to mind all these facts and consider that the Mills bill makes an average redaction of less than 10 per cant., J confess my surprise and amazement that any man in his right mind can be made to believe that the passage of the Mills bill, or one sub- sfcahtially like it, can in any manner, en - danger the manufacturing indastries of the United States, oi reduce the wages of labor employed in them.M / Barns in Darien Burned.
