A Republican President for an
other four years means continuance
of the present safe, conservative,
honorable policy of the Government
toward the business interests of the
country. A Democratic President
means heaven knows what, but cer-
tainly no good to those interests. A
general upturning of the financial
policy of the Government would be
sure to follow the accession of the
Democrats to power. They are pledg-
ed by their platform to destroy the
protective tariff system. They are
pledged BY the speeches and votes of
majority of their leaders to abolish
the national banks, and to play some
dangerous pranks with the currency.
A great reduction, if not an entire
repeal, of the tax on whiskey aud
tobacco may be expected from them,
to be followed of necessity by the
laying of new taxes upon other ar
ticles to make up the deficit in the
revenue. 1t is no wonder that pru-
dent Democrats who have business
interests at stake begin to wish for
the defeat of their party.

1t is the quiet vote which is going
to elect Garfield. Men who think
for themselves and make no procla-
nation of their purpose, are the ones
whose votes make the majorities.
They are business men and farmers,
who ere saying quietly among them
selves: "Well, business good now,
and the country is prosperous. |
think we had better vote in favor of
keeping business good and increasing
the general prosperity" The coun-
try is full of this kind of voters, and
the louder the Democrats demand a
change, the stronger becomes the
public opposition to one.

which proved TO be the abode of a
