Thsjbk excursions went from Alle
gheny county to visit Governor McKin
ley, last Saturday. There were six
trains and about B,or > people, the del
egations being composed of Home
stead steel workers, the National Tube
Works employes and other iron men of
McKeesport and the employes of the
Pennsylvania lines west of Pittsburg.
The last of the special trains bearing the
Homestead, Pa., delegation arrived
shortly after noon. At 1 o'clock the en
tire delegation to the number of 2,c < ac
companied by two bands of music, a
glee club and several drum corps, rtai ted
for the McKinley residence. The city
was in holiday attire. All along the line
of march the visitors were loudly cheer-,
ed and the enthusiasm was enormous.
Every department of the Homestead iron
works was represented. Mr. Molanthy,
the spokesman of the visitors, made a
brief speech pledging the support of his
fellow workmen to Major McKinley.
The latter was greeted v> »th loud cheers
and responded at some length to the as
sembled workingmen.

Reed's vote this year is the largest ever

it seemed by the time Reed's house was
reached that all Portland was out. He
came out in answer to the cheei ing and

the part of the people.

The visiting delegations took an ear.y
start this week. Maj. McKinley com
menced his speech-making at 11 o clock
Monday morning, and he will not finish
his oratorical labors till Saturday even
ing. . .
At TO:W o'clock a delegation ci i,or D
wool growers and business men from
Harrison county, 0., arrived in Canton.
This delegation started from Cadiz, tee
county seat, and home ot the venerable
diplomat and jurist, John A. Bingham,
shortly after sunrise. As the majority 01
the men in the delegation were larmers,
early rising was no hardship :or them.
The Hanlson county men ■were received
in a handsome way at the station, by the
Canton mounted troop, who escoited
them to Maj. McKuiley'a residence. The
ca-.didate has made a good many
speeches in Har.lson couuty— which is
one of the greatest wool growing com
munities in the west—and he has a large
number of acquaintances and admirers

HARBISON COUNTY'S WOOL INDUSTRY.
"It is especially gratifying to me to
receive a visit from so many of the farm
ers and wool growers of Hamson county.
There is scarcely a county in the State
which is so essentially ag. IcuKural as
yours. You have no large towns. Vou
have but few factories, and your occupa
tions are almost exclusively : iral. \ our
county has long been noted as one of the
ere at agricultural sections of the State
especially devoted to that branch of ag
riculture known as sheep-raising an i
wool-growing. There is probably no por
tion of the country of the same ?rea that
has supported so many sheep as yours,
and for many yefrs at least, this was the
most profitable industry of your larjiers.
It is not so go 1 , I believe, now, as
formally. (Laughter and applause and
cries of "DO, no,")
"The last three years have been years
of great trial, not only to the wool-grow
ers of your county, but to the entire coun
try. You have seen jour crops d sappea.
and your fleecer diminish in value to an
extent that previous to 1892, you wou'd
not have believed was possible. I re
member in 1891 to have delivered an ad
dress in the city of Cadiz, to the assembl
ed farmers of Harrison county, in which
I undertook to predict what would hap
pen if we had free wool in the I nited
States. There were few men in that
great audience who believed my predic
tion then. What do you think of it, now,
fanners of Harrison county? (Cries of
"we think it all right.")
"In 1891, you had, according to your
banners displayed here to-day, 153>5°3
sheep of an average value of $5 per head.
In 1896, you have but 92/ x> sheep worth
only sr.so per head. In IS9I, you re
ceived from 30 to 32 cents pe/ pound for
your wool. In 1896, for the same grade
of wool from 14 to 16 cents per pound.
This enormous loss to a great industry is
truly astounding and calls for serious con
sideration and prompt remedy if or.? can
be found, and the only remedy we have
in the United States is by the ballot, and
if it is protection you want, you know
what party carries the banner of protec
tion. (Enthusiastic cheering ana cries
of "what's the matter with McKinley?
He's all right")
"Prior to the enactment of the Wilson
tarifl law you had enjoyed, almost with
out interruption from the l>eginning of
the government, a tariff on your product
to protect you from the competition of
the cheaper lands and the cheaper labor
of other countries. By that act your
product was made free and opened up to
the unrestricted competition of all the
wool of the world.
"What makes that act more indefensi
ble is, first, that it was wholly unneces
sary; and, second, that it was singling
out one of the greatest industries of the
country for immediate sacrifice, leaving
other industries having no greater claim
upon the consideration of the government
practically unbanned. (Cries of "That's
right.")
"'No class of our citizens have suffered
•o much from that tariff law as the wool
growers of the United States; and none
were more deserving of generous tieat
ment tl-in they. So inexcusable was
this act that President Cleveland, who
favored a reduction of tariff all along the
line, and who believed in free raw mater
ial, was unwilling to sign the bill, and
used these characteristic words against
it:
" 'lt may well excite our wonder that
Democrats are willing to depart from
this—free raw material doctrine —the
most domestic of all ta-iff principles and
that the inconsistent absurdity of such a
proposed departure should lie emphasized
by the suggestion that t'ie wool of the
fanners lie put on the free list and the
protection of tariff t? ration tie placed
around the iron ore and coal of the cor
porations and capitalists."
•'But this did not avert the fatal blow.
Less organized than other industries tn
the country yoi were unable to secure
the recognition to which you were justly
entitled and your great product was made
the victim of free trade. (Cries of
"That's right." 1 In all the years ill
which the Republican party was in power,
you know that it gave protection to
wool, and in the act of 1890 gave to this
industry increased protection. That
law, the law of 1890, gave to every agri
cultural product of this country, every
farmer's product in this country, the
most just protection ever had l*-fo e.
Every protection that could be given to
them against outside romp' itio.i and to
preserve the home market, was always
cheerfully and generously accorded by
the Republican pai t y. ( G.cat applause
and cries of "That's right.")
"The platform of the National Re
publican pany upon which we stand this
year, much to my grati.'cation, sing'cs
out the. wool industry and makes of it
special mention as entitled to full p-otcc
tton under our revenue laws. (I«oud ap
plause anil cries of "Good, good.") This
is the laug-iagc of the national platform:
" 'To all products—to those of the
mine and the field, as well as those of the
shop anil factory—to hemp, to wool, the
product of the great industry of sheep
husdandry, as well as to the finished
woolens of the mill, we promise the
most ample protection. (Applause.)
This was followed by some general
statistics regarding the wool industry of
the country, quotations from speeches of
Hamilton and Jefferson; and McKinley
concluded as follows:
"Now they tell you that free silver
(laughter) is the panacea for .-ill your ills
(renewed laughter), and you have the
same money in circul: tion now that you
had four years ago; bat von wool-growers
have not got as much of it as yott had
then. (Cries of "That's right.") As
tree wool degraded your industry so free
silver will degrade your money. (Ap
plause and cries of ( "That's right, too.")
You have already been fleeced by loss
on your flocks, and you don't propose to
!>c fleeced further by loss on your money.
(Great cheering.)
"We have opened up our mills to the
wools of the world, and both the wool
and the woolen mill have suffered. The
American farmer has seen his wool dis
placed by the foreign clip. The Ameri
can woolen manufacturer has seen his
goods disapjiear from the Ajp-:ricai
I market, to give place to the foreign
market. And the American farmer has
thus lost directly in the pi.ce of his J*' o®' 0 ®'
and almost as severely by the blow dealt
to the home market for agricultural pro
ducts, through the diminished consumer*;
resulting from idle mills. The Ameri
can farmer will not tamely submit to this
injustice and wrong. (A voice: "We
don't intend to, in Harrison county.")
The American workinginen in the woolen
mills will indignantly repeal that legis
lation whose effect is to degrade his
labor. ( Applause and cries of "He will
on the 3d of November.") My fellow
citizens, I am glad to receive yon and
welcome you here at my home, and it
will ailord me sincere pleasure to shake
hands with each one of you personally,
if vou desire me to do so. Great ap
plause.)
Ax 1.-shman, name not given, went to
hear Bryan recite his speech. Bryan in
1892 promised workingmen high wages
and cheap rents, clothing and food if
they would vote for free trade. What
he is promising thij year is made c»car
bv the story of this Irishman.
When the speech was concluded the
liishman walked to the platform, seized
Bryan by the hand, and spoke as follows:
•'Sure, Mr. O'Brien, that w?« an illi
gant speech, but I want to RX ye a ques
tion: Will >e bilng the money to us or
must we go afther it?
Bryan 'oesu't answer questions. For
that reason we wish to inform the I..sh
man that iu all human probability he
will be compelled "to go afther it.
McKinley to Somerset Co.
Fifteen hundred fai .ners of Somerset
Co. Pa., traveled 250 miles to Canton
Tuesday, to greet McKinley.
They went w 'th three bands and many
banners inscribed with appropriate pa.-y
mottoes. Each man wore a large cluster
of golden rod on the lapel of his coat
and some fastened the emblematic blos
rnm tr Xh* ut -Somerset
were dnbbed "frosty sons of thunder ,
by one of their representatives on the floor
of the house in Washington more than
50 years ago and on Tuesday each man
wore a yellow badge w .th this desci »p
--tive phrase upon it. .
At McK'lnley's home Senator Cntch
field was the spokesman, and McKinley's
replv was a very happy one, beginning.
"jt gives me sincere pier sure to meet
my friends and fellow citizens of Somer
set Pa., in my city, my state and my
home. Yon have traveled more than 250
milts to bring to me assurances of your
confidence and of your pu >ose to pi ve
to the Republican w. .y and i's glo.ous
principles your united and hearty sup
port. [Great applause.]
"It is difficult to appreciate until the
tact is known what this great audience
coming from a sister State represents.
You have here in this a 'emblage one
forth of the voting populalio of the
Republican party and one fifth ot the en
tire voting population of the county.
[Applause.] It means, my count./men,
not that you are interested in me person
ally, but that you have a deep and ever
abiding interest in your country and your
country's honor. [Great cheei.ng and
cries of "Interest in McKinley.] It
means too that you are deeply interested
in the rightful settlement of the great
national questions which divide us, and
which are to be settled by you- votes,
and those of your countrymen next Nov
ember. [Appiause.]
"I am especially glad to welcome the
citizens of Somerset county to my home.
[Applause.] I recall that in the years of
the past I have visited your mountain
home and enjoyed more than once your
generous hospitality, and I trust that the
future will permit me to again visit that
delightful spot and renew our former
f iendship [Cheers.] Your spokesman
says that the people of your county are
devoted to farming. Looking over t'lis
vast audience and rememberi.ig how far
you are from home, I should think you
were devoted to Republican politics.
[Tremendous cheer.nw.]
"I do not recall a time since the days
of the civil war that there has been so
much solicitude for the i.ghtful outcome
of a national election as this year 1896.
All the peoole are reading and studying
and informing themselves in a larger de-
gree than ever before. Popular inquiry
was never so great and popular interest
was never so profound. It is gratifying
too, that the masses of our countrymen
are seeking the rifjht for the «aVf of the
right, that they may pursue the . ght.
They want to know only what is best for
the countiy, what will truly promote
their own welfare and insure the great
est results for the common good. [Ap

Washington'! Farewell Addresa.
One of the mo»t precious legacies of the
true American spirit ever bequeathed to j
the ciUJens of the United States is George .
Wasaington's Farewell Addrws, i«ned
under date of September 19, 1i96, when he
not only declined in dignified and nsmis- j
takable words the honor of a third rreai-.
denial term, but al. > atUred to the young i
nation of which he bad been acclaimed J
"The Father," the warning j
of a parting friend." It was not only an i
appeal to patriotism, but a prophetic can- |
tien against the errer«Jand waesof »ection
alism. The great laadar had always axperi
ecced bitterly the unhappy «y lequetcM
of sectionalism upon the tended nelu. ine
iealousiea of the Conti' antal aoldiars-<>f
ten the result of old provinaial and colo
nial squabbles—had made him heartsick
! many a time, ®ver in the horr of Ticlorj
I over the common foe. Time and again he
i had been moved to exclaim that the new
i without King (jeorge was like the
substitutio r of thirteen petty sovereignties
lor the old single on«>.
In hie trip towards the west he discern
ed the trembling pivotal attitude of the
immense Western Empire with respect to
the future development of the new federa
tion. During the eigh years of hia Presi
dency he had' beheld thfe cruel beginning
of partisan warfare. His own fellow-pa.-
riot, Thomas Jefferson, had instituted a
criticism upon nim, and Freneaa s dia
tribes had soured many of the sweets of
public honor. Indeed, Washington once
exclaimed: "They could not trW. me any
worse if I were a >*ero!" When he determ
ined to issue his Farewell Address ne:
turned to Editor Claypool as lta pubHher.
That journalist alone bad treated Wash I
ington with the reverence and esteem
which he deserved, while all the Ana-Fed
eralists were barking and snapping at t.s
Having at the close oJ hia first term
consulted James Madison i» regard U» an
address declining a second eleoiion, Wast
ington now sought theadvloe and couuse.
of Alexander Hamilton no longer a mem
ber ot the Cabinet. The Address was pre
pared and pablished nearly half a jear be
fore his official term expired. The immor
al paper has often been printed with tne
date of September 17, and special interest
has been expressed in the coDe.denoe oj
or tne v nit
ed Slates. As a matter of tact the orig
inal Address, in Washington's autograph
bears the date of September 19, 179*5, &*
may be seen by the visitors to the Lenox
Library in I*ew York.
The immediate eftect of the Address
was to emphasise the truly republican
character of the new nation. It at once
gained triumphant recognition for the
principle of popular government. Bat the
"No Third Term" Idea is by no maans PO
important as the ,'No Sectionalism' P-'| n *
ciple laid down in this message by the de
parted Father of this Country. That
broad, far sighted statesmanship, which
ever distinguished Washing.on, ieems to
giitrp-ied far ahead of the actual perls
»-Dicn then threatened the Federal Gov
ernment. Tfe slavery divorce between
Xoith and South had already been hinted
in the famous sapi ressed passage of Jef
ferson's Declaration of Independence.
Warhiagton not only felt the dividing in
fluence of the Mason aDd Dixon line,
out any care a' reader of his writings (as
collected by Mr, Ford) must be imprsssed
with the conviction that he was also anx
ious to prevent a divorce of Bast and West.
To-day when holitical agitators, appeal
ing to cU.iS prejudices, arc doing all they
can to stir up the spirit of sectionalism be
tweentl e West and South and the East, it is
a genuine civic duty and benefit ti listen
once more to the warning appeal of the
ot the great American who knew no name
but that of counvrv. Exclaimed he in al
most pmpheic accents;
la contemplating the causes which may
disturb our Union, it occurs as a matter
of serious concern, that uny groand should
hav« been furnished for aharaoteriiing par
ties by geographical discriminations: North
ern infl Southern Atlantic and Western;
whenoe designing men may endeavor to
excite a belief that there is a real differ
ence of local interests and views. One ol
the expedients of party to acquire influence
within particular districts is to misrepre
sent the opinion and aims of other dis
tricts. You connot snield yourself too
much against the jealopsies and heart
burnings which spring from these misrep
resentations they .tend to render alien to
oach other those who ought to be bound
together by fraternal affection.

McKinley and Protection.
Extracts from a letter from lota.
Greenfield, la. Sept. 14, 1806,
W. C. Negley, Esq. Butler Pa.
Dear Sir
Money is close here as p;ices are exceed
ingly low. We have an abundance to
make money oat of here if there was any
market for our prodncts. There m in our
town a half-million bushels of old oorn in
crib*, and oats accordingly. The new
crop of oats is in a manner lost on the ac
count of no much rain dating harvest and
threshing time.
I have on my farms 12,000 ba. of corn in
cribs and 3,500 bn. of oats in bins, that we
are holding until after McKinley is elected
and perhaps until after he is inaugurated

Oar new corn crop will be very abun
dant if the frost don't catch it for a fort
night yet.
1 wi.l have at least 5,000 bushels of raw
corn, bat the price now will not pay for
producing it, but all that can will hold tor
McKinley and Protection. We are feed
ing two car loads f4O head ]of steers and a
lot of h jgs that wi'l consume a portion of
our new crop.
Cattle and sheep are the only products
of the farm that bring anything like a re
munerative prioe.
At the opening of the campaign we
thought that the Popocrat* were going to
sweep the country, but now w» have them
on the run and by the 31 of Nov. they will
wonder what has becotnu ol the balance of
them. I expect our western Popocrat
orators are more windy than they are in
the east as they have a better opportunity
of inflating themselves, at least the ingre
dient i» more abundant here than there,
and ft ia "free." Tneir speaker* greatest
effort 1* to array the West against the
East and to create seclior alism; yoa would
think to hear them, if yon did not know
better, that 'he Eastern consumer was the
Western farmer's bitter enemy.
The best element of all daises and
parties here are for "Bill" McKinley and
the McKinley Bill and a 100 cent dollar
whether gold.silver or paper. We want the
credit, faith arid honor of our government
maintained. No sectionalism.
Yours truly,
E. Q. DUNCAN.

with British 91lT»r.— A FarUaaat Qnary
BMrlug Upon tike Freaant Campaign.
Brit!ah owner* now hold a Urge part ot
tha alWer atocka of thla ocnintry, which
prodnoe about 80,000,000 osictt of sSlrer a
year. Bcitlsk ownera «ow kold nearly all
the other productive sQrer mines of tke
world —1B Auatralla, Mexico, South
Araerioa, and elsewhere. Their prodaot,
aside from mines in this country, la 9146,-
000,000 ounc«s a year. The whole ailrer
product cornea to 173 p OOO p <ttQ ounces, and la
Increasing at rec«nt prices. Ita bullion
ralue U 1115,300,000. The Talue to whloh
the ailvarorat party proposea to raiae it by
a force bill la |856,750,000. Difference, or
additional profit, »110,5Q0,000 a year on the
preaent increasing product. That profit is
the motive foroe of the ailrerorat party,
thia»-fourths or more in the British lnter
i ait The increase of thla mostly BrltWh pro
duct did not stop when the market price
went below !b cents on a dollar in gold,
i Why should It? On the offlolal report of
j the Broken Hill mine of New South Wales,
' belonging to British owners, It makos 12,-
1000,000 ounces a year, besides a lot of lead,
copper and gold.
At the market price of silver bullion It
has paid ita British stockholder* in eight
years, on a cApltal of less than |t,000,000,
over **).000,000 In profits, of whloh over
185, 000,000 was In gold coin, the rest in
stocks. The aUrererat party, under the
direction of Mr. F. O JTawlands, ef Ne
vada, the leader, and Mr. W. J. Bryan, of
Nebraska, the follower, propones to double
the market value of that bullion. That
would give the British owner* of the
Broken Bill mln* an added trroflt oa that
on* mine, In gold, of more than $10,000,000
a year. That mine produces only 15 per
cent of the world'a produot, which is
mostly British. About an equal profit
B would fall to the rest of tho silver mines,
3 mastly British. Here are two or three
a little sums for Mossr*. Newlands and
e Bryan to do:
The British Woald Profit.
Question I.—lf we, acting on behalf of
the silvererat party, can raise the price of
t the 13,000,000 ounoea of silver from the
1 Broken Hill mine from WJ cento to 1198
r> per ounce, how much profit shall we, "ln
-8 eldentally," make for the British owners?
j Answer 1.—51.30 minus 66 cents equals
j 63 cents; 13,000,000 ounces multlpliod by 83
cents equals |7,600,000.
Question 3.—lf we raise the prioe of the
rest of the silver bullion produot of 188,-
'< 000,0(t) ounces, mostly British, from 6fl
J cents to 91 99 an ounoe, how muoh addi
tional profit shall we "incidentally" take
ont of the pockets of the American work
man and pat into the pockets of the sllvor-
F erats, mostly British?
Answer 2.—91-89 minus tifl equals 83
H cents; 183,000.000 ounces multiplied by 83
cants equals 9109,460,000
e Question 3. —lf the British owners of the
. Broken Hill mlna have made 140,000,000 on
19,000,000 ounces In eight years at the mar
s' kst rate of silver, hew mueh will the
' mostly British owners raaki In the next
eight years on 1T«.M0,«08 ouacee a year at
91.90 an onnoe, when we have secured their
■ force bfll to bring the value of the silver
D bullion of the world op to that prioe?
Answer. —Mr. Bryan la aew "Uwldent
' ally" figuring this ant, a«d w4ll give the
6 answer in his next speech.
Mr. Bryan says that these "inoidantal"
(aec the last part of his ad dross in New
- York) profits most not prevent the voters
- of this oountry from supporting the sllver
" crat party. Mr. Bryan goes about the
country like a small roaring lion braying
about British bankers, and alleging that
his opponents are subjecting the money
system of this oountry to British lnfla
' enoa If that sort of talk Is taken out of
s his speeches, what is there left?
s Now, If the silvererat orators regard
E this sort of sauce suitable for the geese
whom they expect to drive, may not a
sauoe of British silver be rightly served to
, that kind of gander?
If the whole body of persons who are in
good repute In this country to whom have
* been delegated the hlghoet position* of
s trust In the custody at the great enter
* priceß of this country, ai well M all the
1 eon duct of life lnstiranoe companies, sav
f lngs banks, and the like, are aotnatod by
3 British lnflneime in tholr efforts to keep
the savings of the people as good as Brit
ish gold, what shall be said of the sll ver
s cratsofevll repute who are trying to debase
2 the American dollar to the levol of the
Mexican dollar and to reduce American
waxes to the rates of Mexican wages?
British Silver Emissaries.
Is their motive to be attributed to Brit
ish silver?
Under what inflnonce have sudden oon
' versions been worked In Massachusetts?
Under what Influence have the bossies of
the political machines been led from the
- true Democratic party to the sllvercratlc
) party?
r' lias the permanent sliver lobby of able
r and unscrupulous men been paid to work
! In Washington these many years with
BliMsh silver?
| Who got op the book of Ilea entitled
"Coin's School" and spread it
> by millions over the ooaittry?
* Have British emissaries been working
I for years for the "laoldeutal" Issues (see
Mr Bryan) profits of the Brltlih silver
Interest?
Let these silver era t tradnoers who prate
about British gold and British laflaence
' r In support of the credit and honor of thlf
r nation take warning lest British silver and
Its Influence be brought home to them
selves to their own discredit and dishonor.
' What Daniel Webster said ot a similar
body of cheap money men sixty years ago
fits this case, with the change of two
words, which I have put In brackets:
( "He who tampers with the currency rebs
> labor ef Its bread. He panders, Indeed, ta
i greedy capital, which Is keen sighted and
' may shift for Itself, but he lieggars labor,
which Is honest, ansuspectlng, and too
busy with the pro sent to calenlate for the
p future. The prosperity of the working
classes lives, mores, and has Its being he
established credit aa< a steady medium of
1 payment. All sudden change* destroy It.
| Xonest lndustag serar cesses la for any
part of the spoils In that se ramble, whloh
, htkes plaoe whan the aarreaoy ef a oeuntry
Is disordered. Did wild schemes and pro
jects ever benefit the Industrious? Did
I violent fluctuations ever do good to him
I who depends on his dally labor for his
' dally bread? Did lrredemable bank paper
' [silver dollars] ever enrich the laborious?
Certainly nevar. All these things may
gratify greed 1 Qua* for suddon gain or the
rashlness of daring speculation, bat they
can bring nothing but Injury and distress
to the homes of patient Industry and
honest labor."—Kdward Atkinson la Now

now Bryun's proposition is that this
country can add f4."00.000,000 to lta value
by taking the world's yearly product,
which is in coinage value about 1316,000,- : 1

—the amount to be determined by the

had an lnbern, honest detestation of the
coin clipping methods by which govern
ments had sought to defraud the governed-
He denied the right of congress to debase
the coin by a reduction in the value
MR. J.OIE-- R. GARTIELD writes from
Ohio on a point that has occurred to many
Republicans: "In his effort to array class
against class Mr. Bryan has appealed
most strongly to the farmers. If they
forsake him his election is an impossi
bility. Possibly many do not realise tho
difficulty that will confront a new Repub
lican administration. With an adverse
senate, all means for increasing our reve
nues to a point above expenditures will
be eonfused with the silver question. The
contest arising on that point is the most
serious aspect of'next year's political prob-
I lem. "
