Judge Durham says of the delay
of the Republican Senate on the
tariff bill II believe ii is big
political scheme upon the part Of
the Republicans to delay a discus
sion OF the tariff before the people
and to keep the eyes ofthe country
on Washington. As long as Con-
gress is in session tine members can
not return and thoroughly canvass
their district and put the issue to
the people in the proper light. The
Republicans are afraid to meet the
Democrats on this question fairly
and squarely in the field. They
WANT TO delay the campaign Until
late in the fall, then endeayor to

reservations about free trade. The

a Cleveland Rooster,s Growing

the Democrats had a rally al
Creal Springs to-day. A feature OF
the affair was a tiag-pols raising.
The pole was raised in the forenoon
1t measured 1876 feet in length. On
the top was placed a broom, indi-
eating a clean sweep for Cleveland
and Thurman. A veritable novel;
ty of the affair was the action of a
rooster. A live rooster vas put up
on small platform near the top OF
the pole, where he pluckily remain
ed until the pole was raised to a
perpendicular position. Then ne
crowed eight times, the number of
years that Grover Cleveland has
got TO serve the people as President
and few down. Speech-msking
followed during the afternoon, and
was continued until late hour at
night.
