-j Orippe Ohia Janiestowa Kvery Saturday. Ohio must cease waahinz its uirr.y linen in public Or that Btate may get down to the low level of election scandal mougering Penusyl- vania. In Pennsylvania about every editor wears a muzzle. There the truth is not to be published It Is too horrible for print. Hon esty in bther tStatea wcu never believe that any one State contained so many vote buyers: or so many predestinated scamps don up in brcaac.o:n only to cneat at elections.

Borne- time we may explain now Penn's "honest Quakers and Hessians Washington captured and located iu Pennsylvania, have oper ated to falsify honesty in election. Or why in that Btate political rascals do get on top.

Increasod by Free Raw Materlala ji i Wade's Fibrs and Fabric. The confounJlimr of tbe ideas of protection to American labor with Tariff taxes on foreign products is the strong hold that politicians try to keep oh the working classes. Every pound of raw material that is imported from abroad helps to employ American laoor, ana in the case ot wool usually helps the consumption of home crown woo.s also. If it was not im ported, the goods, or wors still, the clothing, would be imported already made, and in tne latter cae tbere woul i not be a cent 'a worth of American labor in its production; so with iron ore. To make these materials free would increase the demand for American labor and give farmers a better home market for thetr productions In pure wool and worsted goods the cot of materials is about three times as much as the cost of labor, and a duty on thette materials tends to diminish tho amount the manufacturer who consumes them can afToru to pay for his labor.

It also drives him to the substitution of shoddy and cotton (or wool. Paying for a Delicate Attention. 1 Courier.
