Well, now, | used TO think ! was u toler.

tho Same thing in tho same manncr.
thought n monopoly WINS where one per.
son or corporation had the exclusive right
to do something. Why Is II u monopoly
Il Is a monopoly In their eyes because
Democrats seldom engage In that hnsl'
ness. Whyr Few Democrats can under-
stand why d poor man should be paid ior
his labor. do not want YOU men IN Snr,,

TIE SELFISH SOUTH.
In the Southern States why Is 1t that
YOUR statesmen are free tradcrs2 YOU
live a few in West Virginia who say they
ars for tariff. They are when 1t touches
coal, but for nothing else. II | owned n
good deal OF coal ! would 10 III the sainc
fiy. In North Carolina tho Congressman
arc free traders, but when you touch pen.
nuts and turpentinc they want u tariB.
Laaghter.I
In Louisiana they arc free traders rs to
everything but sugar, but when you touch
suyar they raise n howl, but when you
toEch iron they are for free trade. A
Democrat can't be II tariff man. 1t is IN
impossibility. lie may be. on u particular
thing that interests the people, who vote
for him. but OH everything else he is n
free trader. A Republican Isl taritr man,
born and bred in the bone. Hois for pro.
lection for protection's sake. lClcers;
lie is for American industries for Ameri-
can industries sake. lIo Is for home, for
his own people.
Ono article, without OBTAINING you on
the subject: Under Democratic admins
tration did you over buy Il watch, like
that? Taking a gold watch from his
pocket. II you did how much did it cost
you? That watch cost $500. 1t didn't
cost mo u cent. II 1t had cost me that, !
never would have owned 1t. 1t was pre-
sefted TO me by some very good friends
over-twenty years aso. When We com.
menccd to manufacture watches in this
country you would have TO pay from Sl5U
10 $500 for n iirst-class watch. Yon have
now thirteen watch lactoricsi in the United
States. To-day there are Sl5,000,00O worth
of watches sold i'll the United States each
year. What does That prove TO you? Oi
ihat SIS, ZOO, 900, $lO,OOO,O00 worth are sold
to IL own people and wc would have
had to pay that Sl0,000,0O0 to foreign couIl
tries, instead OF which that $l0,000,0OC
stays at home and is circulated among our
own people. {,
So it is with other articles manufactured
in this county. But the Democratic idea
is TINT that money shall not stay
at home and circulate among the people,
but shall be transferred to Europe and dc.
prive the American people OF it. | say
produce among ourselves the best we can,
us much rs We cam, sell it ut home OF
abroad, but the product brings the money
to our country. Send our product 10
foreign countries; keep the money among
ourselves. That is the true theory Of
political economy which will advance the
interest Of the American people. (Here

been talking. Cries Of $50 on" Ego on"

AFAvoHirE CRY.
want to call your attention to one
thing. I spoke n moment ago about the
surplus in the Treasury. The Demo-
cratic party say that the surplus in the
treasury ought to be disposed OF. Now,
let us see what they mean by that. They
say We do not get rid OF the surplus.
There arc u hundred ways by which We
can get rid of n surplus whenever we
have it. In the first place, il it was left
to me l would appropriate n part OF the
surplus OF the treasury Of the United
States to mid every State in this country
where they were not able to educate their
children themselves. Iwould put a part
OF that surplus in an educational fund
for the benefit OF the poor
children OF this whole land. GGreat
chccring.1 And then there is another
thing. My Democratic friends are alarm
ed about the surplus-they say you must
take slOO, oO0, 900 Off the tariff. Take that
off and you stop every mandatory in the
United States. Every one. l tell them
there is a better way to do it than that.
Ii you have more money than you want,
and doubtless the Democratic party has,
they never had so much befdre-when-
ever you get more money than you know
what to do with, take off the internal
revenue and let the tariff alone.
TIE TRUTH ABOUT TIE SURPLUS.
Interference TO the S4OO, 900, 900 iin,the
Treasury: MyfriendG Governor Hendricks,
the candidate for the Vice Presidency on
the Democratic ticket, says there is $780,
10000 surplus in the Treasury that ought
to be in circulation, among the people.
GovernorE Hendricks ought to know better.
Ii hcdoesn't know better he is not quail
fled to be Vice President. If he does
know better, he does not state the truth.
Under the law We have in the. Treasury
OF tho United States, n a reserve, $780,
10000; We have S2429, 100000 OF deposits
belonging to individuals, rs a special de-
positeo Of bullion, for which gold and silver
certificates IRE issued, and ara in %circula.
ton to-day. What Of the balance OF Mr..
Hendricks $500, DOC, 900? 1t is held in the
Treasury as interest on bonds not called
and on called bonds not presented, and
that is the whole of the sum in the
Treasury of the United States that these
people are SO alarmed about. II they
will only examine the question they will
understand that the Treasury has just
what the law requires it to have and no
more.
Now VIC have disposed Of that-if We
have 10 surplus that ought to be disposed
OF except in the manner in which we
have provided for it, what use have you
for the Democratic>pa party ? daughter.
They only want to get there 10 dispose Of
the surplus.
And Mr.. Hendricks says he wants to
the books. ii they did they
wouldn't understand them. tCheers and
lnughter.l
