A. Jenk's nomina- tion was secured by Quay’'s influence is another rediculous political canard. The life of Mr. Jenks is so free from such in. fluence that Quay methods could never swerve him from duty Political losses are the ones who most opposed his nom. pation and fear the result of his election If the people want reform in state affairs tet them elect Jenks, and a vigorous, | courageous, clean man will be in the ex. ecutive department, IT is reported that Clement Dale, Fsq., will seek congressional honors this year, and will ask for the instructions of Cen. tre county republicans, which no doubt will be accorded him. Mr. Dale has been an active party man these many years and never sought political patron- age. Further he is aclean, upright man; above all sober and honest. He certain. ly would be an improvement on the kind of men this district has been sending there recently.

That is what Mr, P. BE. Furman, a well-known demo- crat of that state, says, and the same thing will apply equally as well to other states, for it is as plain as the nose on your face that the republicans are going to make their campaign on the although they deserve no more cre action of Congress igton that ress republican Con - FOR THOUGHT sir hands for land investments, By making money dear, on the gold basis, it becomes scarcer, harder to get, requires more farm pro. ducts to get the dollar. Taxes remain the dame and consequently our farmers get very little for their toil after selling their crops, paying labor and taxes, con sequently seldom get money ahead to buy themselves homes. That 13 what the dear gold standard does for the farmer If he will only study the situation he will realize why bankers and money lenders oppose silver coinage. - DODGING. The campaign this year will be strictly | on state issues, The republicans don’t want to talk abcut that point. Since wheat has dropped to 65 cents they shy away from it too and the only thing they seem able to say is that Stone was a sol- dier. That seems to be their only hope of appealing for votes and at the same titue they are roundly abusing Bryan for raising a regiment and offering his ser. vices in the present war, to the govern. ment, When we size up the republicans in their present situation they appear in a rediculous light-—a set of inconsistent dodgers. our We have the ships, the guns and the men who know how 3 SER aod land, The res loan shows that we } } eople who cost fallen in action on from beginning to end country which our German friend telling us three months ago knew not ing about war, - TaEry is considerable comment among the papers and naval circles as to who should receive the credit for the destruc. tion of the Spanish fleet at Santiago, At the time of the engagement Admiral Sampson had charge of our fleet and Schiey was next to him, but Sampson was ten miles away to haye a conference with Gen. Shalter Schley directed the engagement and carried it through to a successtul termination, and Sampson ar. rived in time only to witness the surren- der. Now if Schley bad made a failure or a blunder, he would have been respon- sible and been given all the censure and criticism. Since he won a signal victory it likewise is just and right that he re- ceive the glory. Schiey did the fighting, Schley won the battle and certainly should be recognized as the victor, ———————————— .
