Protection Sontirnent-
The Coll, Son Francisco, Vol.,
.Inly 'A, 1SH7.J
The people of tlio Nution liavo bad
Bullicieut illustration of tho ruinous
directs of Freo-Trndo to mako them
turn from tho ptith that leads to din
aster nud poverty and shun it for-
evermore. Tho lute Presidential
election, with its overwhelming uia
jority for Protection, represented a
grand niovcineut on tho pint of the
voting iiiiissea that was not to ceaso
with the realization of tho popular
desire for an administration, backed
by a majority in each branch of
Congress, that would give tho conn
try o genuino American policy. Tho
movement has continued and the
trend is nioro and more toward
those principles which ate tho glory
of the Jtepublicau party and w Inch
constitute tho best safeguard of tho
Union.
The experience of tho Nation with
the combined ills of Free-Trade and
Clevelnndisin during four years of
business distrust, closed mills and
poverty taught the people better
than statesmen and politicians, with
reasoning and statistics, could teach
them. They had practical demon
stration of the very results that
were foretold when Democracy as
sumed the reins of Government in
1892. Tho people were misled then
by theorists, who talked eloquently
. of tho "benefits" that would ensue
from lopping off Tariff from wool and
lumber and coal and ' nVimOerleB
other things. As Lincoln once said
"You can fool all tho people somo of
the time aud some of tho people all
the time, but you can't fool all tho
people all of the timo.',
Tho Democracy fooled a majority
of the people in IS'.Ci, but it was dif
ferent in lWHi. Tho ninny had ac
quired wisdom in tho school of hard
experience. Of course, some people
may always be fooled, but tho vast
number who control tho destinies of
tho Kopublie wore quickly undo
ccived. When Cleveland went into
ottice in 1 s; m ho had a solid Demo
cratic Congress to work with. In
1 811-1 the Congressional election left
hardly enough Democrats in the
House of Jiopresoutiitives to make a
respectable caucus. This was but a
prelude to tho eonipleto victory of
last year.
There is no cessation now to the
growth of the Protection sentiment.
Especially is it spreading iu the
States of the South, tho stronghold
of Democracy. The Amehican Tauiff
Leaouk, which has been serving
newspapers with Protection litera
ture, announces in the last issue of
tho Ami-kican Economist that for
tho scrvico iu quostion an unprece
dented Lumber of replies havo been
received from neutral aud Free
Trade papers. Since tho last gener
al election tho total number of news
papers thus served has incrensed
from .'5,1 !' to 5,ti(W. Tho bulk of tho
increase catno naturally from Pro
tection papers, but 48ii came from
Free-trade and 250 from neutral
publications.
From Georgia, Kentucky, Louisi
ana, Mississippi, North Carolina,
Tennessee, Texas and West Virginia
was received the majority t.f tho op
plications from newspapers which
have hitherto been arrayed under
tho Freo-lrado colors. The most
surprising incrcaso is that of Texas,
where formerly Tue Leaoue furnish
ed its literaturo to only fourteen pa
pers, and whero now the number
is increased to 100. This is deemed
tho strongost possible evidenco that
tho principle of Protection is to-day
acceptod in every section regaidloss
of previous party afliliations. Froo
Trade is dead and buried. That
ruinous policy cannot be resurrect
ed. Wo shall attain our full meas
ure of prosperity only through the
wise application of the American
policy of Protection.

Statistics of business failures in

The six mouths' exhibit includes
7,024 fuilures of individuals, firms
and corporations in business, com
pared with 7,002 in the first half of
181t0, a falling off of 578. The 7,021
business failures during the past six
months record 93,656,495 liabilities,
511.879.000 less than in the corres
ponding period of last year.
Evidences of the revival in trade
and speculation are reflected in the
June total of bank clearings, which
exceed in volume those in preceding
months since January, and also show
increases over the month of June in
recent years.

We publish below a tabulated
statement of the money on interest
in Snyder county for 1895, 1896 and
1897. By this it will be seen that the
people of Snyder county pay interest
on $15,000 less than last year. The
loans and discounts of the two banks
were about $240,000 last year and
is about the same this year. The
statement is as follows :
