Evening News: A recent East Sag
inaw dispatch stated that Thomas r.
Barry desired denomination by the
Democrats as Representative. This
was not the tact. In a letter of Sept.
3, from Philadelphia, to Chris. Maier,
of East Saginaw, Mr.. Barry expressly
requested that his friends make no
effort to secure his denomination to
the legislature in the second Saginaw
district, and the Democratic repre-
sentative convention, instead of abid-
ing by party usage in Mr.. Barry's
case, and giving him second nomin-
alton, threw him overheard for a
"lumber baron" Barry wanted to
see what they would do, he said, and
the result was as stated, which left
Mr.. Maier free to tell the convention
that the throwing Of Mr.. Barry over
board would be costly at the polls.
Mr.. Barry did not seek denomination,
or his friends would have seen to it
that he get it, but, all the same, the
Democrats showed their hands against
him, and they'll suffer for it.

Labor:ng men should not fail to
remember that every dollars worth
goods that can be manufactured or
produced at home, under protective
tariff, which is manufactured or pro-
duced abroad, is dollars worth of
labor taken from the American labor

in some other country. The free
traders, like Yaple, Bogus Butter
Tarsney & Co., propose to make this
transfer. Can the American laborer
afford to see this done? If not, Shia-

the story OF the flooding OF Chicago

certificates, the Bureau of Engraving
AID Printing ia in daily receipt of evil
dence that the story is still widely cir
culstsd and credited. Mr.. Il. o.
Graves, the Chief Of the Bureau, stated
today that there is not a particle Of
evidence Of the existence of such
counterfeit, and authorized the most
emphatic con tradiction of the state
ment. The city of Chicago has been
searched for DAYS by the operatives of
the Secret Service, who report that no
trace OF the existence OF a single
counterfeit OF the kind de-
scribed can be found. Mr.
Graves says it is imDos;ible
that such counterfeit should bs ia
circulation in Chicago or elsewhere
without the knswledge OF the Treas
urer, the Chief OF the Secret Service
or the Chief of the Engraving Bureau,
oil of whom deny the story most posi-
lively. As such statement is likely to
discredit the new certificates, they are
anxious that it should be denied as
extensively as 1t has been pub ished.
