F.vrry patriotic Amcrlenn citizen
FhouM today display at his home n'1
at his working place the Inspiring folds
of the American lias. It Is a proper
Fymbol of tho Influences which are nt
work for the restoration of American
Industry and the preservation of the
hone sty and the integrity of the Ameri
can dollar.
The man who truly loves the Has
of his eeuntry will not wish to see it
humHed ly the enactment of a law
requiring the stamp of the mint to
print on the nation's coin an unblush
ing He. lie will not desire to have the
laborers of his country the men who
dig its mineral rcsourcs, fell Its for
ests or work Into a thousand useful
shape's its miscellaneous raw material
thrown into competition with the
cheap labor of foreign lands and paid
at the end of a hard day's work In
money worth only half the sum marked
on its face.
The Protective policy Is the American
policy and it may well be symbolized by
the American Hag. Steady work at
good wattes paid In money equal to the
best Is a prospect which may properly
be sought by our worKing people under
the inspiration of a patriotic device.
The supremacy of law, the Integrity
of our courts, the unity of our national
life and the brotherhood of our people
are parts of the American programme,
and nothing Is more creditable than
that those who stand for these princi
ples should wish to let the fact bo
known by an appropriate token.
t'p with the ling and down with all
who would dishonor it!
r.y voting to a mnn for Roberts and
Roberts Republicans can not only se
cure three years more of splendid ser
vice In the county commissioner's of
fice but. they can checkmate the local
Democratic organization in one of Its
favorite schemes for political entrench
ment. The Indian Problem.
The attention of our readers Inter
ested In the problem of law enforce
ment on the frontier Is directed to the
exceedingly Interesting article by Mr.
Richmond on another page describing
the workings of tho Mounted Police of
Canada and picturing the happy results
of a systematic, intelligent and hu
mane policy of dealing with thd Indian
tribes.
These results stand in vivid con
trast with the fruits of our own care
less. Ineffective and more or less In
human handling of the same problem.
In Canada, as our correspondent points
out, the frontier is as safe and as or
derly as tho city; there aro no "hold
ups," no outrages, no frenzied carnivals
of intoxication and crime. The Indian
tribes are peaceable, contented and In
the main industrious. They are send
ing many of their children to school;
they are becoming good farmers and
the whole trend of their social gravla
tlon Ib in the direction of civilization
and usefulness.
The reasons for this good showing In
the Dominion are that over there treaties
are kept, violations of law are promptly
and firmly but not spasmodically pun
ished, the sale of liquor to Indians Is
not nominally but actually prohibited
and prevented, and there is humane apd
generous official encouragement to
those Indians who exhibit a sincere
desire to Improve their condition. It
must humiliate any American to com
pare this record of Canada's Indian
policy with the record of our own gov
ernment In this respect. A reading of
Mr. Richmond's letter wll be worth
more than twenty volumes of official
reports on this Important theme.
No free silver! No free trade!
"I do not like the proposition of the
Chicago platform that relates to the
powers of the national government. In
1861 eleven states combined their arm
ies In the field to establish the doctrine
that the government of the United
States could not enforce their laws In
those states without the consent of the
Btate authorities. Brave men for four
years advocated that doctrine, not In
the attempt to set up anarchy, for they
proposed to establish a government n
which rights of persons and property
should be respected, but the end of that
was, comrades, friends, that we bad
established the power, that it was the
constitutional duty of the president of
the United States to enforce all the
Iuwa of the United States without ask
ing anybody's consent If we
make a mistake In finance we will get
out of it, but if we once establish in this
country of ours the doctrine that the
laws of the United Stales can only be
enforced In any state by the consent
and co-operation of the governor, we
have wiped out our great history, we
have dragged the flag In dust, we have
destroyed our constitutional system of
government, and that once destroyed,
once surrendered, we may never Je able
to recover." General Uenjamin Har
rison. The voter in the First district who
votep for John R. Farr doesn't take u
leap in the dark.
Worth Considering Carefully.
An Interesting point was made by
the last issue of the Northern Chris
tian Advocate In the form of a table
showing what It cost the Missionary so
ciety of the Methodist Episcopal church
to turn Its collections Into gold during
17 consecutive years of Its history.
About hulf of Its receipts during this
period had to be so converted In order
to secure the money's acceptance In
foreign fields. Here are the figures:

The Advocate added this timely com
ment: "The premium on gold that
would be caused by the triumph of froe
silver would tax the missionary treas
ury as severely as It was taxed during
the worst days of the war."
After asking for Information about
one of Its cock-and-bull stories the
Times says Immediately afterward:
"Any Information given at this elev
enth hour would be valueless." Then
why ask for It?
Representative Candidates.
We take pleasure today In present
Inp portraits and brief biographical
sketches of tho Republican candidates
In this county. Collectively as well us
individually the showing made is com
plimentary to the parly and reassuring
to the people. Tho candidates without
exception are clean, honorable and
creditable representatives of the po
litical organization to which they be
long. Their personal worth Is not less
than the worth of the political princi
ples for which they stand as temporary
exponents.
If there was ever a time In the his
tory of this people when tho best In
terests of the country cnlled for a
wholesale and uniform defeat of the
Democracy that time Is now. It la not
enough to defeat William J. Iiryan
and thus save tho white house from the
danprers of populism. It Is not enough
to defeat Judge Merrlfleld nnd thus In
pure, so far as this district can, a sound
money congress. This would lop off
the branches of the free silver Upas
tree which now poisons tho air with Its
exhalations of mennce to business con
fidence nnd prosperity; but the tree's
tap root would still find nourishment
for future mischief If tho Ilryanlzed
wing of the Democratic party were to
got hold of the county offices and se
cure a foothold In the next state legis
lature. The only sure way to ptamp out tho
perils Involved in the Chicago platform
Is to step heavily on every candidate
fof office, big or little, who ventures 4o
appear In the present kind of Demo
cratic livery. In other words, put all
personal feeling aside nnd vote the
straight Republican ticket as a matter
of patriotic duty. If you have a friend
on the Democratic local ticket, let him
wait for a complimentary vote from
you until some year when you enn give
it without feeling that thereby you are
extending encouragement to vicious po
litical principles championed In a na
tional fense by vicious or dangerous
men. The friend can do without your
vote for a time much better than the
country can do without confidence
among Its business Interests. Protec
tion for Its labor and its Industries, and
the Ft row? assurance that for every
violation of federal law there will be
prompt punishment.
A Eplit ticket Is like ft scattered shot.
It does but little good. This year the
line of cleavage is so sharply defined
between those who are for the best In
terests of the nation and those who
are for Its harm that all on tho former
ride ought to waste no time on per
sonal compliments to Individual mem
bers of the opposition, but should vote
straight against the menace which
confronts them.
Vote for Alex. T. Connoll for the leg
islature and make certain of being pro
perly represented.
The Case Summed Up.
TVe direct attention to the sum
ming up, on another page, of the pend
ing case for Protection and sound
money. This article Is full of figures,
and figures ordinarily are dry rending;
but these figures tell an Interesting and
Instructive story, which every voter
should know.
They show that since Cleveland's
election In 1892 the business of our
clearing houses has been Injured to the
extent of from $40,000,000,000 to $50,000,
000,000; that our foreign commerce has
been dlmlnlsod by nearly $1,000,000,000;
that our agricultural products have
suffered a depreciation In value of over
$1,000,000,000; that there is nearly $1,
000,000,000 depreciation In the value of
live stock; that the sheep industries
have suffered to the extent of about
$60,000,000 In value of the sheep, and
over $46,000,000 In the wool crop.
The number of new railroads being
built has been reduced about two
thirds; the number of passengers car
ried has decreased almost 32,000,000 In
three years; there has been a decrease
of over $31,000,000 In the net earnings,
$50,000,000 In the net receipts, $31,000,
000 in the receipts from passengers and
112,000,000 In the dividends. There has
t
been a decrease of 4.079.9S3 In the num
ber of messages sent by telegraph, and
an Increase of one cent In the cost per
message.
Our exports of agricultural products
have decreased $290,780,000. Unfortu
nately, there Is no means of compiling
the statistics to show how disastrous
has been the effect upon our manufac
turing Industries since the Wilson
Rryan tariff bill went into operation;
we know, however, that in many indus
tries the production and prlcps have
decreased almost one-half. We also
know that that tariff bill closed several
of our local Industries and put others
on restricted time, causing general de
pression In the community.
The facts cited in regard to the per
capita circulation of money Bhow that
It Is not for want of money nor of good
money that all this trouble has arisen.
That depreciation of prices has not been
caused by the demonetization of silver
Is self-evident; for, according to offi
cial reports, there Is at this time $433.
000,000, or about $8 per capita, of
standard silver dollars In circulation.
whereas previous to 1873 there never
had been more than twenty cents per
capita.
The change of administration and
cutting down of duties has reduced the
revenues of the government, so that In
stead of paying off the public debt at
the rate of $70,000,000 a year, we have
added about $S7.000,000 annually to the
bonded debt of the country. The great
falling off in all departments of busi
ness in the last three years, as Indi
cated by the foregoing statistics, gives
a clear insight into the conditions of
the country at the present time. Av nat,
then, Is the matter with the country?
If such facts as these do not indicate
to the voters of the United States for
whom to cast their ballots, we do not
know what will.
No free silver! No free trade!
Arrant Rot.
A staff writer of the Toronto Globe
writes to his paper from Chicago:
During the present election people have
been innulring not only whether Iiryan
or McKlnlry would be elected, but wheth
er, back of the ordinary movements of
nolltics. there were forces which threat
ened tho disruption of the American
Union, such as a war of "masses usalnst
classes," or a cleavage between the south
nnd west nnd cast. The impression which
I derived from a fortnight's Journey owr
some of the central western states of the
fiilon was one of the solidity of American
institutions. The inquiry was very cur
Fory of course: yet an American Journal
ist who wnnted to know whether Canada
was ripe for annexation could obtain a
great deal of light in a two weeks' tour of
Ontario, ninl so a brief visit to come of
the communities on the other side nviy
not be without Its value. I heard some
very excited oratory, but I never heard
a suggestion that If either side were disap
pointed in tho result of the election se
cession or rebellion would follow.
Pretty much the same spirit Is Indi
cated In the remnrk of the Detroit
Tribune, probably the most enthusias
tic free coinage advocate In the coun
try, when In speaking of n certain fore
cast of next week's result It said:
This would Inilleate a very close elec
tion. We hope, however, that Mr. Stealey
may prove a poor Usurer, for It will be
much more satisfactory to the country
nnd move conducive to the spee.ly setilltii?
of business again In Its ordinary channels
If one party or the other were to carry
the election by a very decisive majority.
It would be a great misfortune if the
mom y question we re to be a bone of con
tention for tho next four years. A ve.-y
derisive, vote will probably settle It for
good and we will all be the better con.
tented.
The fact Is that on next Wednesday
morning every sensible man In tbo
country will scan tho returns, accept
the result philosophically and proceed
at once to pick up the threads of his loo
long neglected business. Whether that
business shnll be prosperous or not In
the ensuing four years may bo Involved
In the election returns, but not wheth
er the American republic shall live or
die. Talk to the latter effect Is simply
arrant rot.
The unthinking adoption of a policy of
currency debasement Indicates more than
ft passing danger. It shows that a blind
Samson, weary of providing a continu
ous festival for his taskmasters, may
some day tear down the pillars of the so.
clal structure, even though he perish In the
wreck. Toronto lllobe.

If they want to see; nor does any one

What Wage-earners
Should Remember
That the man who teaches that the In
terests of employer and employe are not
mutual Is an enemy of labor.
That the men who stand on the Chicago
fie silver and free trade, platform are
men who never employee! labor and will
not be able to give any Idle man a tfob In
the event of llryan's election.
That the experience of nations Is far
more Valuable In solving on economic
question than the boldest assumption of
thi'orists.
That one fact gleaned from the markets
will kick to death all t lie free trade the
ories that can be found In the books.
That the history of our own country
shows that Industrial depression and
tinani'lal panic haves always resulted from
a tariff law framed in tho Interest of
Unropeun worksheets.
That a low tariff has always Increased
the Importation of foreign goewls until our
money ran out: Increased our foreign ob
ligations; produced a balance of trade
amiinst us; impaired the farmers' honr?
muiket without securing u market abroad;
decreased the industries of the nation; eli
minishid the value of all property and
robbed labor of its Juiit rewards.
That the only argument ever ndvane-.vl
In fevor of fre trade or tarlff-for-rsve-lien.
-only Is the argument of cheapness."
That this ni'Kinneiit has been efl're tiinlly
demolished by the history of the Wilson
(iortnan law, which has made the earn
ing capacity of labor $.1tKi tiii.iKH) less trW
year then in ISsS and has not ylclbd
liny ee nipi tisating benefits In the shape
of cheaper woolens, cheaper cottons,
cheaper shoes or cheaper household uten
sils. Thnt cheapness Is of no advantage to
the man w ho Is out of a Job.
That It Is better to have t" with which
to buy a $3 hut than to have (2 with which
to buy a otWent li:it.
That under thirty years of protection
In this country wares have Increased t"j
per cent, in money uud 72 per cent. In pur
chasing power.
That the re has never been a time in our
history when work was so abundant cr
when wages were as high, whether meas
ured by the currency in which they were
paid or by their power to supply the nec
essaries and comforts, of life, as the y were
In ISHJ under the McKinU-y tariff law.
That Mr. 1'ryan, who now declares that
the present dollar Is "too good" for Amer
ican wage-earners. Is the same Iiryan
who In the ilf:y-th!r,l couktcss took the
position thnt a tariff law that gave every
man u Job wus too good for the American
wnr.e-eftrners. .
That till!- same M; Rrynn who deviates
that public nnd private il.bts should be
scaleil So per cent, by paying them U n
debased currency Is the same Itrvun Vho
in the fifty-third congress took the posi
tion that the enlarged home market ml
nted by the Ab Kinb y tariff law. was too
good for the Ainerie.an farmer.
Thnt this ratne Mr. iiryan who declares
that men who use tlielr capital to employ
labor should be treated as enemies by
their employes Is the same Iiryan who
voted to repeal the tariff law under whl.-h
the put. lie debt had been decreased $241,
M!i,7:i'), nnd voted to substitute for it a
tariff law which incrensed our public debt
by J2.i2,Ui;,2iri, threw thousands of wage,
earner-! out of employment, prostrated
hundred. eif Industries, creating wide
spread disaster nnd financial panic.
That if Air. Itryan could have had his

passed a nv.ich more radical free trade
measure than the Wilson-Uormnn law
and the effects upon labor nnd Industry
would have birn much more disastrous.

TIIEIlt 1XTKHKSTS IDENTICAL.
From tho I'ittston tiazette.
Tho Industrial News, the ofllcial organ
of tho Scranton Cent raj Labor union,
comes oat strongly In Its e.lltoilal col
umns for William Cnnnell, the Republi
can candidate for congress in Lacka
wanna. And why should it not? There
never was a greater truth than thnt the
Interests of capital nnd labor arc Identical;
and whin a capitalist employing hosts of
workmen, who has studied thoroughly
his business and Its needs from a practical
point of --view, decides upon a certain
voitrsc, it is pretty safe to assume that
that course which will be Lest for tho em
ployer will also bo best for the employe.

the ranks of thj? toiling ones, nnd can
sympathize with them. In him, Lnck.i

And the same argument which proves It
to be the wise course for workingmen to
support Mr. Council In this campaign is
applicable to Hon. Morgan II. Wllllums'
