The London Times has a very Poor opinion of Mr. Blaine's letter on pro tection, and believes 'that American Democrats can casilv refute his extra- ordinary sophisms. ' When Republican Sena :ors and Repub lican newspapers begin :o complain of the power of the President it is prima facie eviderice that Mr. C eveland has ex erted his power for the good of the people. . . : . The National Democratic Convention which has been in sessidn at St. Louis since Tuesday, completed its work yester day afternoon by .nominating that noble 'Old Roman," Allan G. Thurman, of Ohio, for Vice-President. The ticket as it stands, Cleveland and Thurman, is with out doubt the strongest that has ever gone before the American people. It is a ticket that, will cany- Jthe full and un divided strength of the democratic party of the Nation, and win triumph in a great victorv in November next. . The Republican Natid nal Convention meets in Chicago on the 19th inst. It is a hard matter to tell nominee for President. ivho will be the Now that Blaine fre 'Gresham and is out of the race, Jud General Sherman both ha - ve pretty strong flowing, but it is likelf that neither of these men will be nominated. The fact is the republican party is so badly disor ganized by the j withdrawal of Blaine from the race that it is at a loss as to who can make a creditable run before the people. ; The Star says it is announced at Ral- eigh, where the politicians seem to know .everything, that the Republicans are afraid of the Democratic speakers, and that there will - be no joint canvass this year. ' However this matter may be ar ranged as to the candidates for Governor, we warn the Executive Committee that Dockery ought to be met by some good speaker at every point." When confronted by a man who knows his record and is not afraid to meet him, he will do but little harm ; but when permitted to can- vass alone ne is one ot ttie most cianger ous demagogues in the State. FI9KANDBROOKS. This was; the first Presidential ticket put in t the' field. It is the prohibition ticket, with woman's rights tacked on as an annexj Clinton B. Fisk of New Jersey and Janie's A. Brooks of Missouri are the men. j Mr. Fisk was a-General in the war; and is represented as a man of high character and ability. ' He is a Meth odist and conspicuous in church work.' He is largely; interested in the Atlantic & Pacific railroad, and is considered wealthy. For many years, he has been identified with! the prohibitioriparty, and in 18S6 he was the nominee of that party for Govornor; of New Jersey, polling 19, 500 votes, the! largest number ever cast lor a prohibition candidate in that State. His associate on the ticket is said to be of Virginia descent, j . ! The prohibitionists do not expec to win in the. contest,! but they expect to poll such a vote as jto alarm the other parties and compel recognition by the lawmakers. The knowing ones among them claim that the prohibition vote at the approaching election will be over 700,000, whereas the vote for St. John in 1884 was only a little over 150,000 In this estimate Ohio is put down for 35.000 votes, Pennslvania 35,000, New Jersey 30,OOo Texas 40,000, Vermont 25,000, Wisconsis 25,000, New York 75, 000, Michigan 40,000, Illinois 50,000, "Kentucky 20,000, Minnesota 1S,000, and so on. ! i - . :l TRUSTS.! I Onthesubject of "Trusts and the Peo ple," the New York Herald has the fol lowing striking comment to make: "But there i$ a still greater evil in these capitalistic combinations. They not onlvso cover ithe field that individual effort is. paralyzed, but in the pursuit of their monopoly they buy the services of tnc aoiest men- tne urains ui nictuuuuj and by paying the large salaries and rewards which an established monopoly, and that alone, can afford, they suborn the intellect oi the nation for their pur poses. Thus in these times we see the ablest, lawyers1, the ablest chemists, and the greatest inventors, the most in genious mechanics,, the most competent business managers in the pay of great corporations, combinations and trusts, doing obediently the unscrupulous will of the 'aggregated and selfish; capital which employs them. Thus we see more and more, evei ot r public men the ser vants of trusts and corporations. The Senate of the TTnited' States is notorious ly full of such, and at the head of them shamelesslv stjands the chief of a great combine, Senator Stanford, a person of . no ability in public affairs, whose voice is unheard in the Senate except in defence of the corporation of which he is the head!" ; I . . To Man a Necessity. ; Says an old man, moralizing ih the At lanta Constitution .-''There is no doubt that a man is very soon forgotten. I have thought about it a great deal, and I tell you that when a man Is dead he is gone. It is painful to me to take an -active part in plaj'ing a tribute to a dis tinguished friend after his death, for I know how little it amounts to. We talk about the man's good example, and the influence of his life, and the loss the coun try or the StLte has suffered, but it is mere jargon. When a man is dead he is gone, and tha : is the last of him down here. There was our old friend, I do you know he thought the State would go to wreck and ruin when he died ? Well, he is virtually foj-gotten, and the State is running on just as it did before.1 No, it makes no difference who it is and what he has done, when he is dead he is gone ; yes, gentlemen, when a man is dead he is gone!" I " I ; V ' Tlie Internal Taxes i ' Richmond Dispatch. i We applaudjthe manliness of the: Dem ocrats of North Carolina. In State Con vention assembled, they will not only declare, as the Roanoke Convention in Virginia did last year, for the Blair bjll or some better bill in aid of general edu cation, but they demand the uncondi tional abolition of the whole internal revenue systeih as a war tax not to be justified in time of peace. In caucus in Washington City, the North Carolina members of Cbngress showed the same spirit, and stood up for their rights. It is a little jtoo much to ask of human nature to expect the Democratic Con gressman from Virginia and North Caro lina not to vote for the abolition of the internal taxes on frtfit brandies and to- bacco. Even the national convention of the prohibitionists declared on Thursday last forthe immediate abolition of the internal reventie system Why should any Democrat hesitate to vote in the interest of his (constituents? -Messrs.
