FRED LAND. FA.. <>< To HER s. ism;
Concedes Jill) Votes to llryun.
For many years the Now York Herald
has enjoyed the reputation of being one
of the leading political forecasters in
the country. It is, in this campaign, j
one of the most desperate newspapers
opposed to Hryan. therefore it is Inter
esting to note what its editorial predic
tions are. To begin with, it concedes
the Chicago nominee to have pjo votes
positive in the electoral college, and tin
reader may rest assured that lie is not
getting from the Herald an\thing which
by hook or crook can be •kept away from
him. It says Bryan will win in every
state west of the Missouri river and in
all of tin- Southern states with three ex
ceptions. West Virginia and Michigan. ,
it says, are doubtful, but are inclined n
favor of Hryan, and he will probabh
carry them, making his total electoral
vote 210, or 14 less than enough to elect.
This is what the Herald predicts, and
these are the figures it gives.
For McKinley it claims 2d7 votes, am!
obtains this total by asserting that he
will carry the solid Fast. Delaware.
Maryland. Kentucky. Illinois. Indiana.
lowa, Minnesota, Ohio a id Wisconsin.
To class the nine latter -tates in tin-
Republican column, without reserve, re
quires nerve, but in the litraid editorial
room the wish to see them there is of
more importance than its reputation for
political judgment, and that the latter
is a somewhat biased article is shown
by dispatches in its own news columns.
The staff correspondents of tin- Hi raid
have just completed their tours through
Ohio, Indiana and Illinois. The) aim
up their report of Ohio this way: "The
first poll of this state by t ho Republican
state committee gave Ohio to Rryan.
and the second poll is not much more
satisfactory." Nothing in that to war
rant Ohio being classed for McKinley.
of Indiana and Illinois tin >taff corres
pondents say: "No one can tell how
the election will go in either state."
That is what the Herald'.* men. who
have traveled tie -, three states say of
them in the news columns of that paper,
yet the Herald claims them "sure" for
McKinley.
It doe- not require much experience
in mathcmetics to see. through the
Herald's editorial elainn. Tie- news
columns of the paper contradict it
figures ami give full proof of a fr< e
silver victory. Its own correspondents
tell where Ohio will stand, and it is
worth remarking that lienry (Jeorge.
who is traveling that state, said on
Tuesday in the New York Journal, that
"Hryan will carry Ohio by a perfect
landslide''—and (leorge generally know
what lie is ialking about.
mirnyo l'lutforin 31 list Win,
From the Knights of Labor Journal.
Wo believe no one disputes the fact
that money measures products and that
products measure money; therefore if
money goes up products must go down.
As the finished product goes down tie
cost of production must go down. If
this bo true how can wages he kept up
with the cost of production going down'.'
With the cost of the finished product
constantly falling the cost of production
must fall in tie- same ratio.
Hctween IKOOaud 1872 -tatistics prove
that prices generally and gradually rose,
and from is*,:: prices ha\•• graduaalh
and continually fallen. What is tin
cause of this gradual decline <-f pri< •?
• It cannot he laid to improvements in
labor-saving machinery, for the largest
number and the greatest labor-saving
machinery was increasing production
and cheapening cost, prior to IsT'J. It
cannot bo laid to over-production, for
there cannot bo over-production while
people are in the want of the tilings pro
duced. It can only be laid to the con
traction of the currency and the gradual j
appreciation of gold.
All tilings are regulated by this law of
supply and demand; labor, products and
money. Much stro.-s is laid by Mr. Mc-
Kinley. in advocating prot••ction, on the
plea of protecting American wages.
Mr. McKinley must, know that, except
in those industries protected by organi
zations of labor, where wages are held a
little above tin average paid under the
natural rate, the law of supply and de
mand alone can regulate wages.
lie must know that industries protect- ,
Ed by a tariff act pay a lower rate of
wages per day than the day's rate of
wages paid to unprotected industries, j
for the reason that protected industries '
are controlled by trusts and monopolies,
and these combinations are more power
ful than the labor organizations oppos
ing them: while the unprotected indus
tries, like the building trades, hold up
wages because protection acts have not
combined the contractors against them.
The workingman can not be induced
to vote for a party advocating tho pres
ent financial system, and no argument
can convince them that it is to their
interest to perpetuate or continue a
system giving the banking interest the
power of controlling and cornering all
coin redeemable paper, that enables
them at any time to raid the gold re
serve and force the government to in
crease tho public debt.
The Chicago p!atf< r.n, this year rep
resents the farmer, the laborer, the
artisan, and the middle classes, while
the St. Louis platform represents the
banks, the syndicates, the trusts and
monopolies, and the millionaires. The
Chicago platform must win.
/ N INTELLIGENT DOG.
Hides on Trains unci Street t'ars and
Never Makes a 31 lata Ice.
There is n wonderful dog in Jackson,
()., owned by Mr. N. M. White, manager
of one of the coal mines between there
and WYllston. This (log is named Frank,
and he is a very pretty little water span
iel, and, though very young, lie has
shown himself to be a perfect marvel
of canine sagacity.
Every dog has a hobby, whether car
rying oIV oUI shoos, hiding hones or
1 owiing nil night, and the dog in ques
tion has a little one of his own, which
he uses 1o his own pleasure almost
daily. This dog is a railroader, and he
j ■robably knows more about railroading
thau any dog in the country. A hun
dred trains a day do not confuse Dim,
rnd he treats them all alike, riding on
any oi all of them to go from one place
1o another all over this part of the
count ry.
Mr. While, the owner of the dog, goes
up to his work at t he mines every morn
ing on the Ohio Southern, and returns
in the evening on the same road. It
WQ3 ingoing up with his master every
day that Frank became familiar with
Hie trains on that road and with the
run on the trains. At first he would
'M; t until flic evening train and cirne
home with the lest of the miners on
their regular train, but. he soon became
uecti; tomed to ot her trains on the road,
and would jump on a coal train or a
freight and come home whenever he
rot rc :uly. lie seems also lo have a re
markable power for remembering the
i in-.es of the trains, for on days when lie
does not go up the creek to the mines
he is always at the depot to meet his
mc. lor when he comes home in the
( veiling, rarely missing the train by
more than a few minutes each w ay.
S nee the completion of the new clc-c
--ti '• belt road between Jackson and
Weil ton the dog lias shown himself
abundantly able to keep afoot of the
= ilues. He now goes down to tlic elec
tric road depot to the first car in the
u ruing, and goes up to the mine liim
si If, be ng always t-liero when the own-
r appears on a later train on the other
oad. He also gets on the Hocking
Valley train out of here early in the
morning and goe3 to Columbus, return
ing on the same train at night.
lie has a habit of jumping off the train
at ( very station and then climbing back
(U again nr. the train pulls out. One
night recently he was coining home on
the mill oad and jumped off at Con I ton.
The train pulled out without bis notic
ing it, and, after chasing n for n few
) ards, he seemed to be reminded of the
electric road, and lie walked over to the
i< ' trie road depot, a short distance
; ay. and came home on the next car.
'! he dog is well known to trainmen all
along the road and is a great favorite

BRIGHT BOY'S IDEA.
Hi; i:\pluiiiß How Iln Rends unci 3lukca
Perfect Shinny Sticks.
A bright boy writing to St. Nicholas
tells how shinny sticks are made.
"X get -ticks,' he writes, "as nearly
straight as po> ible and bend them at
i ome. I have a goard made like this;
are two pins at one end, at 1 and
?. around which the stick is bent; and
at the other end are two rows of holes

f ticks— they should be as green as pos
sible—are in place on the board, I put
the whole thing in the back of the fur
nace, where the stick will bake. In"
about two days tlie* sap is dried out and
the stick will keep its curve.
"Then I take u belt lace —a leather
firing about half an inch wide and
one-sixteenth of an inch thick—and,

then put the leather binding over the

WORST CLAUSE OF TEE CONTRACT.
That Which Hired Two Men to Hack the
I'iiiled States Treasury Patriots Who
Conspired to Heat the Government Out
of OOU.OOO— A Word About Trusts.
In the course of his speech at Wil- !
lnington, Del., Mr. Bryan said:
Then they made the Rothschild con- ]
tract. There was a contract by which i
this government sold to a private syn
dicate bonds at 104 V which were at
that time worth lit) in the market.
There is not a private citizen who would
ever do that tiling but his relatives
would have a guardian appointed to
take care of his property. Men can do
is public officers that which they would
not do if they were handling tlieir own
money and attending to their own busi
ness.
We were told when we sold bonds at
home we had to furnish the gold to buy
the bonds with, fto they tried to buy
the gold abroad, and thus they did
not need to furnish tho gold which
they were buying. It made a little
larger circle. It took a little longer to
get around. The one provision in that
contract which struck mo as an exceed
ingly sagacious one was the one provid
ing that this gold should be paid in in
stallments, extending oversomo months. |
The beauty of that was that the gold
could not be got tin out until it got in,
and the longer it took getting in tho
longer it took to get out. They sold
bonds and sent them across the ocean,
and before six months were up the same
bonds that went across the ocean at
101 came back to this country and
took gold away from this country at the
rate of 120.
That is financiering. That is wisdom
in financial circles. And if there is any
ono here that docs not see that it is wise
do not say so, because they will say you
are ail ignoramus down in Wall street.
That contract contained a stipulation
by which the Rothschild and Morgan
syndicate agreed for a certain length of
time to do their best to protect the treas
ury of the United States. 1 think that
the worst clause in tho contract. It was
the worst clause because it ri cognized
in the contract that the services of those
men were worth buying and paying a
largo price lor. It was a recognition
that but for tho purchase the services
could not have been rendered. They
hired two men to back the treasury. If
this government is going to admit that
it depends for its financial existence
upon tho bunking firms, one foreign and
one domestic, then it puts itself where
those people can charge this government
whatever they please. lam not much
of a financier, but my idea is that in
stead of hiring those nun to let us alone
we ought to try them as they do any
other men who conspire against the
government and punish them for con
spiring against the country.
Yet they issued $100,000,000 more.
It was suggested that they were going
to be issued at privato sale, and J. Pier
pout Morgan, who had been in the bond
deal, where they made such a profit on
the bonds that ho refused to tell about
when brought before a committee of in
vestigation, after stating that lie did it :
largely because of his interest in tho |
country, refused to tell how profitable i
it was to bo interested in the country ;
just at that time. J. Pierpout Morgan
organized another syndicate, and it was ;
advertised that lie was going to submit j
a bid for various parties at about $1.05, |
and tin n a cireinnstunco arose which
made it necessary for the president to
advertise for public bids. Did the Mor
gan syndicate put iu a public bid for
tho samo amount if would have at pri
vate sale? No. That syndicate waited
until just before the time to open tho
bids, and then their bid was put in
more than $5,000,000 above the bid
that they expected to have put in if they
had secured the bonds at private sale.
Now that is business sagacity. Of
course no financier would condemn a
man who tried to get the bonds at 105
and then had to bid 110 and a fiactiou
and got them. If that is business sagac
ity, then 1 believe it is the business of
this government to protect tho people
against such sagacious financiering in
stead of turning tho finances over to
them.
You may call it patriotism on their
part if you will, but I want that kind
of a patriot to serve some other country
and not mine. If some pi tty individual
who did not iiavo a high financial
standing were to try to beat the govern
ment out of SIOO, they would put him
in tho penitentiary and make an exam
ple out of him. Hut if a man tries to
beat the government out of $5,000,000,
he becomes a patriot and deserves to bo
the chief guest where treasury officials
are banqueted. Ido not believe the man
who manages the financing should bo
the bosom friend of tho conspirators
who neve r lose an opportunity to bleed
the people.
I do not say this to secure the support
of the Morgan syndicate. 1 know when
I say that I put, myself in the ranks of
the anarchists. Who is an anarchist,
according to the syndicate idea? The
man who believes in the Declaration of i
Independence, that all men are created I
equal and stand alike before the law. j
Who is the patriot and statesman, ac- j
cording to J. Pierpout Morgan? Ho who
believes the masses were made with
backs to bear the burdens and tho few
were made to ride upon the bucks of
those who toil.
The people of this country desire a
government which is no inspector of
persons, hut will deal as heavily with J
the great transgressor as with tho petty j
criminal and which will not confer
speeiul favors upon a few people who
control legislation for private gain.
If you believe in u government in
I that way you have a right to your
thoughts at the polls, but if you bciieve
; it is safer to leave the destinies of this
country to the syndicates and corpora
tions, American and European, then
you have an opportunity to so decide
this fall. I know there are many people
who have not given up hope that the
people are able to govern themselves
without the aid of these barnacles that
have fastened thcmsc Ives upon the gov
j eminent. I believe a new leaf must be
turned over. I believe tho time bus
come when the secretary of the treas
ury, instead of being invited before the
mangatcs of Wall street and told what
; he must do, ought to invite the mag
nates of Wall street before him and tell
them what they must do and make
| them do it.
You say it cannot bo done. Then our
j government is a failure. You nay wc
i are not able to manage these trustsV
Yes, we are. A trust cannot live unless
| it is connived at by tho lawmakers or
j those who enforce tho law.
I have been called an anarchist be
. cause I have opposed the trusts and syn
j dicates which would manage this coun
-1 try. lam glad to have tho opposition
I of these men. lam glad that if lam
| elected there is not a tiust or syndicate
that can come to me and say: "Wo put
; you there. Now pay us buck."
I believe that for every Democrat wc
lose because of the position we have taken
on the money qucHtion we are going to
get 10 who are not DemocratH. While our
opponents do not underHtand what 10 to

Tln re is a great Democratic silver

sound money and have taken an active
part in the campaign up to date.
Considerable feeling wus created over
this in recent political discussions, and
the silver depositors began a run on tho
bank last week. The bankers solicited
aid from other institutions, but it was
not forthcoming, and today an assign
ment was made to Gilbert Drennuu.

TO REDEEM SILVER IN GOLD.
Mr. l'rjnii Calls Attention to Carlisle's
Latest Statement.
Our opponents tire doing as much
for us in this campaign as wo are ablo
to do for ourselves. And of all the pub
lic documents recently issued the most
important one is the letter just given to
the public written by the secretary of
the treasury, from which I desire to
quote one sentence, "It is the duty of
the secretary of the treasury and of all
other public officials to execute in good
faith the policy declared by congress."
And mark tlicso words, "And when
ever he shall be satisfied that the silver
dollar cannot be kept equal in purchas
ing power with tho gold dollar except
by receiving it in exchange for tho gold
dollar, when such exchange is demand
ed, it will bo his duty to adopt that
course."
I want to murk those words because
in those words the secretary of the treas
ury tells you that whenever the secre
tary is satisfied that it is necessary he
will at onco redeem silver dollars in
gold. I call your attention to that, my
friends, because I want to emphasize
the deception that has been practiced by
this administration on tho money ques
tion.
When this administration advised tho
repeal of tho {Sherman Jaw, you wero
told that the repeal of that act would
remedy the difficulty. Yet as soon as
the Sherman law was repealed the samo
authority which promised relief as soon
as it was repealed came to congress with
the demand that greenbacks and treas
ury notes must be retired by an issue
of gold bonds in order to stop tho drain
upon the treasury's gold. But now the
secretaiy of the treasury informs you
that even if tho greenbacks and treasury
notes were all retired, so that there
would not be a dollar of paper money
to be presented for gold, yet it would bo
his duty (whenever, in his opinion, it
became necessary) to redeem silver dol
lars in gold and start another endless
chain and drain upon tin* treasury. Ac
cording to tho doctrine laid down in
Mr. Carlisle's letter you cannot stop the
drain of gold from the treasury until
you retire all the silver dollars and sil
ver certificates and leave nothing but
gold as the money of tho country.
I am glad that this declaration has
been mado. I am glad that our op
ponents are, step by step, revealing to
tho public eye this heartless, merciless,
criminal policy. lam glad that they
have told the public that wo must have
gold alone, and then confessed to the
public that we are in the hands of two
banking syndicates and must pay them
for that gold whatever they want.
Talk about monopolies! Talk about
trusts! My friends, they propose to es
tablish the most gigantic of all trusts—
a money trust—and Jet the few men who
hold the gold dole it out at such price
as they will to all the other 70,000,000
of freo born American people. I de
nounce tho policy as more cruel and
heartless than political domination of a
foreign power. I would rather, as some
one has said, put our army in the hands
of a foreign general or our navy in com
mand of a foreign admiral than to put
the treasury department in tho hands of
a secretary who would barter it away to
a syndicate. I would resist such a finan
cial policy with as much earnestness as
1 would resist the progress of an invad
ing army coining to attack our homes.

They Give Munificently to the Republican

I learned today from an absolutely
correct source that very recently largo
sums of money have been contributed
to aid tho souud money cause by people
who liavo never before aided a political
party.
The banks of Pennsylvania are gem
orally contributing to the campaign
fund. Seventy thousand dollars was
contributed from Pittsburg banks last
weok. A percentage on the deposits to
a fixed amount was agreed upon. Tho
banks do this on the ground of the ne
cessity of protecting depositors and their
stockholders. A number of Philadelphia
banking institutions have given #lO,-
000 each.
"The conditions are such as warrant
the expenditure," said a contributor to
uie today. "liuin would confront us
with freo silver."
"There will be#l,ooo,ooo contributed
in the state of Pennsylvania," said a
person to me who knows whereof he
speaks. "All the railways in Pennsyl

fifteen men from death or serious injur)
on Friday in the No. k' shaft of the j
Kingston Coal Company, but in d dug so
lost his own life. The accident occur
red on the planes of which Jones had
charge. There are two tracks, one used j
for loaded cars and the other for Hie
empty ones. A rope runs over a pulie)
at tho top and the loaded cars pull the •
empty ones up the plane.
Jones forgot to block the car when it ,
came to the top of the plane, and before !
he. had time to attach the rope the car
was running away. lie shouted to the j
men below a warning, remaining on the
track in the middle of which lay the
rope. The runaway car reached the i
foot of tho plane and struck several cars
to which the rope was attached. The
momentum started those cars, tighten
ing the rope with a jerk, and Jones was
struck in the hack by the rope. His
back was broken and death was instan
taneous.
Tho men at the bottom all escaped in
jury, managing to get out of the way
just in time. liud they not heard his
warning several would have been killed.
SigiiK ol' . Cold, 11 if i-l Winter.
"Next winter is going to be a cold one,"
said a gentleman the other day. "At
least the old.settlers all predict a long,
close season. The reasons given are
various, and each person is entirely j
satisfied that the one he gives renders ii i
absolutely certain. In the first place I
rabbits 1 fur Is thicker than usual, as is j
that of minks and other animals. This
indication is regarded as infallible. :
(Jreat faith lias been placed in a sjgn
that has never been known to fail, or at j
least it is so claimed. The corn husks
are double.
"Another sign is that the crop of
nuts will be exceptionally heavy this
fall, and all trees and bushes bearing
nuts are loaded down with them. The
squirrels are laying in a larger supply !
then for several years past, starting
with acorns. If thcro is anything In j
signs, people had bettor begin to calctt- ■
late, as the animals do, on a long cold ;
winter."
