AN attorney in Harribsurg has a client
who holds a mortgage against a farmer
in Colorado. That farmer has a large
amount of wool and sold it through a
commission house in New York shortly
before the Chicago convention. It reach
ed New York a few days after the nom
ination of Bryan and the adoption of the
Chicago platform, and the purchasers re
fused to take it at any price, saying they
were unwilling to manufacture any more
woolen goods or lay in any further stock
of "wool under such conditions as the elec
tion of Bryan would bring about. The
farmer went back to Colorado converted
to McKinleyism. The holder of the
mortgage extended the time for its pay
ment until after the election to enable
the farmer to sell his wool and this
morning received a letter from the
farmer's agent in which he says: "Mr.
Shmnan will be very grateful for your
kindness in waiting for the payment of
his loan nntil after election. I believe
that McKinley will surely be elected and
that business matters in general will im
prove after that time. There are a great
many McKinley people out here, but of
coarse the State is largely for Bryan and
Sewell, There is some excuse for a
Colorado man being friendly to the sil
ver question, but how anybody that is
not directly affected by the increased
production of silver will be benefitted is
more than I can see."
AT Indianapolis last Thursday the Gold
standard Democrats nominated John M
Palmer of Illinois for President and
Simon B. Buckner of Kentucky for Vice
President.
Palmer was nominated in the first bal
lot by a vote of to 124# for Bragg.
The platform declares for the gold

commends President Cleveland's admin
stration; and condemns both tne Chicago
and St I/juis platforms.
The Way it was Put.
"I presume," said the magistrate,
"that you gave the prisoner some occa
sion to strike you?"
"Why, your Honor, we were talking
about the coinage, and he made some
statement that called me to remark that
he had been misled and was arguing
from wrong premises, and then he struck
me,"
"Is that what he said to you, pris
oner?"
"Yes that is the substance of it, your
Honor, but not the language. What he
said was that I didn't know enough to
pound sand in a rat hole, and was talk
ng through my hat like a jackass full of
thistles and bull-nettles."
W. C. THOMPSON, A. T, Scott and L.
M. Wise attended the meeting of the Re
publican clubs in Erie yesterday, and
heard Chauncy Depew's great speech.
T. C. CAMPBELL and Mr. Phillips, a
glass-blower of Jeaunette talked at the

THE New York, Philadelphia and
Washington papers of last week devoted
from two to ten columns a day to Li
Hung Chang—his yellow coat, peacock
feathers, parrot, coffin, etc —all of which
Li totes around with him. Li don't be
lieve in walking, and is carried from his
hotel to his carriage, carriage to car,
and so on. The Gold and Silver cam
paign in the towns named, was com
pletely over shadowed last week by
this "Heathen Chinee" and his doings,
Li left Washington, Saturday evening,
for Niagara Falls on the P. R. R. via
Harrisburg, and Williamsport, and will
cross the continent 011 the Northern
Pacific, and tike steamer for China at
Vancouver. He hadn't time to come to
Pittsburg, and slighted San Francisco
purposely, on account of our restriction
laws.
The Boy Orator.
I cf me from haunts of rabbit's foot,
I make a sudden sally,
I rush across the startled land
And call the boys to rally.
In fifty towns I raise my voice,
Or break into the cities,
A village here, a hamlet there—
I'll show them what my grit is.
Still whirling on from State to State,
I cross each brimming river,
For men may come and men may go,
But I talk on forever.
I chatter over railroad tracks
And talk from off the trolley;
I never pass a little crowd
But that I fire a volley.
I gabble, gabble, as I go,
My words flow like a river,
For men may come and men may go,
But I talk on forever.

SPEAKING ol Senator yuay's inter

n a speech In the senate, giving offense
toDavid Martin, Alex McDowell recent

McKinley to the Editors.
The Republican editors of Ohio, in
annual session in Canton, called ujx n
Maj. McKinley,Tuesday afternoon,•walk
ing from the hall to the residence, where
they formed themselves in groups about
the porch. The spokesman was John
Hopley, the oldest editor in the State.
Among other things, he said:
"However urgent the necessity of pub
lic confidence, certainty of the future is
absolutely essential to its return. iiie
success of'free silver' would mate tne
future more uncertain than ever, and the
return of public confidence in the pre.
sence of such uncertainty would be more
hopeless than ever. But the success of
'honest money and the chance to earn it
would immediately give to the nation a
certain future.
• Then will the time again come when
all over our rich inheritance the turnace
fires will be beacons, lighting the nation
to prosperity; when the whirling wheels
ringing anvils, the hum of lactones and
the deep bass of ponderous machinery
will unite in one grand anthem to the
glory of labor and the prosperity of the
McKinley was roundly applauded
when he stepped forward to speak. He
have been deeply moved by the gra
cious words of your venerable
You could not have chosen one of jour
memtership to give the expression o.the
sentiments of your association ™" r( -
pleasing to me than my old and honor l
friend, Mr. Hopley, whose efforts in be
half of the Republican party have beej
unceasing for more than 40 vears [Ap
nlause 1 Defeat has never discouraged
Sim Ind£l. I think he is at his best
and does his best work when the party to
which he belongs is under temporary tie
feat I can only wish for him continued
good health and the full measure of those
blessing which he has so much enjoyed
during his long and eventful career.
[Applause.] .
'•lt gives me great pleasure, gentle
men to welcome you, one and all, to my
home I feel sure that you are familiar
with Canton, an.l need no assurance
from me as to the cordiality of its hospi
tality. You have rlone Canton a great
honor by your visit, and, for me, I highly
appreciate it, as I know all our citizens
do. Canton is a very fair newspaper
town, and no newspaper writer or pub
lisher ever comes here who is not, warm
ly welcomed, whether he gets what he
comes for [laughter] or not, and no mat
ter what he mav say when he goes awav.
[Renewed laughter and applause.] Gen.
Sherman and some of our other old oiri
cers used to have a way during the war
of scnd'ng certain newspaper men out of
the camp occasionally, and perhaps often,
wished to send them* 'across the line.'
"We have now no sectional lines. [Ap
plause.] They have been, happily, ob
literated: No part of this great republic
can now be called 'the enemy s country
[Great applause.] Newspaper men, like
everybody else, can go freely and speak
freely and write freely on every spot of
ground beneath our glorious flag.
"I feel that I know something of the
Republican editors of Ohio. I cannot re
call a time that they h« ve not been faith
ful and friendly; nor can I forget that in
some of the closest campaigns in the
State their intelligent and unfaltering
support has brought victory. This year
they are more earnest, more aggressive,
more thorough and more efficient than
they have ever been before. They ap
preciate the overwhelming importance of
the issues involved in the contest, and
are leading, gloriously leading, in the
educational work which is indispensable
to a proper understanding of the ques
tions which divide us, and right action
ultimately at the polls. Gentlemen, it
is a post of singular honor which you oc
cupy to-day. I cannot remember any
period, pave and except the war, when
the Republican press so signally repre
sented national honor and national wel
fare as now. [Great applause.] It is
not often given to a political party as it
is this year given, to ours, to stand be
tween national honor and dishonor, pub
lic faith and repudiation, and order and
disquietude. [Applause.]
"It is the good fortune of the Repub
lican party to stand in this contest for
what is best in government, for what is
patriotic citizenship, for what tends to
the support of the financial integrity of
the government, its credit and its cur
rency It is a vast responsibility to put
upon any party; but the Republican
party is not without trial amidst grave
responsibilities. It has performed su
prernr Jut; It l»w
trusts before. It has discharged them,
too, with wisdom, courage and fidelity
and it will meet the new ones with an
holiest and unfaltering pnrpose to serve
the best interests of the people and all
the people. [Applause.]
"Fortunately, 111 this contest the Rep
ublican party in not alone in its support
of the Republican cause. Conservative
men of all parties stand with it. It num
bers ainow its strongest allies many of
the most powerful Democratic newspa
l>ers Hast and West, which are doing yoe.
man service for the patriotism and na
tional honor.
"Tliey arc welcome thrice welcome,
and the country owes them a debt of grat
itude for their unflinching loyalty as
against the party, for sound money and
public morals. [Great applause.] Ihis
is a year gentlemen of jwlitical conten
tion without bitterness. Intelligence and
investigation are taking the place of
passion and partyism. Party prejudice
cuts little figure in a crisis like this.
We must not indulge in asjx-rsion or
criminate against those who may have
differed from us in the past, but who
are now with us in a patriotic effort to
preserve the good faith of the country
and enforce public aud private honesty.
[Applause.] We must not drive any
body out of camp but must welcome
everybody in,
"You doubtless have grown weary of
being told of the greatness and power
and value of the press, so many times
styled the preserver of our liberties and
the hope of mankind. It was Bulwer
I believe who commanded. Take away
the sword; States can be saved without
it; bring the pen. This is a year for
press and pen. The sword has been
sheathed. The only force now needed
is the force of reason; and the only pow
er to be invoked is that of intelligence
and patriotism. [Great applause.]
"Our people have always extended to
the press the most generous patronage
and accord it the greatest deference, so
that the press has grown with our growth
and advanced with our advancement.
There are nearly as many newspapers
and periodical publishers in the United
States as in all the rest of the world be
sides. To me the modern newspaper is
so vast and comprehensive that I can
never contemplate its possibilities with
out becoming I>otli interested and enthu
siastic in the subject. Why, to be a
real capable and worthy journalist, wise,
honorable and efficient is to attain the
highest plane of human opportunity and
usefulness. To love and proclaim the
truth for truth's sake, to disseminate
knowledge and useful information, to
correct misimpressiocs. to enlighten the
misinformed, to feed an expectant and
anxious people with the occurrences of
the world daily—indeed almost hourly —
to discover and correct abuses, to fairly
aud honorably advocate a great cause
in short to mold and direct public opin
ion, which is always the mission of jour
nalism, is surely the noblest of profes
sions. [Great applause.] Poor it may
be in some parts of the world, despised
it may be by the intolerant, and igno
rant everywhere, but degraded it never
can be so long as its aim is for the good
o£ the people."

Vcl ludnttrial Capacity.
During all th» jraars the Republican
party wti In power ami wrhon Republican
policy prevallad. there was no necewlty
for twain? bonds to maintain the gold rc«
»#rve. The government had constantly
money enough to meet all current expen
ses and a surplus to apply to tho reduc
tion of the national debt. This happy
condition of affairs was due solely to tho
fact that we had a tariff system that pro
vided revenue and afforded protection.
What better argument could be advanced
in defence of a protective tariff? At the
same time the fact that we also had in
dustrial prosperity only emphasizes the
argument. Give us protection and thar«
will be no agitatioa of the ques
tion, no issuing of bonds. —Cambria

Dr. SchaflVr's Reply.
When Dr. Schaffer. superintendent of
public instruction, who is a Democrat,
was asked by a Pittsburg Dispatch re
porter, "Will you vote the ticket?"
"I pay out f5,500,000 of the state'* money
for the schools every year, and I think
too much of our school system and the
welfare of the c-niltlren to have the dis
tricts pecolve a depreciated currency, 63
cents for a dollars," was the significant
reply. The doctor said no more. It was
enough.

English Labor Needs Protection.
The working pooplo of England find
that competition with countries employ
ing cheaper labor is too oppressive to bear
longer and are demanding, in the interest
of themselves and families, to be saved
from the further degradation it will en
tall. It is not American competition they
dread. It is the competion of France, Ge
rmany and Belgium, countries whose labor
is even mure poorly paid than tho labor of
England. They have come to appreciate
at last that nothing but tariffs which are
defensive in their characters will save
them from utter ruin and destitution.—
