The canvass which is rapidly draw
ing to a close is franght with grave
questions, calling upon each voter
to consider well the consequences
of his ballot, whether he will con-
tinue to uphold the Republican
party in its policy of trampIing
upon the rights of the people, or aid
the Democratic party in its effort
to restore the government to "a con-
stitutionai basis, aud break up this
robbing of the people under the
form of law. We take it that he
has had enough of Republican
schemes and methods, and can no
longer be hood winked by the cry
ofprotection, when protection me ms
his impoverishment. As people be-
come better informed upon this sub
jeet the more determined they are
to look to their interests, particular
" in the election of Representatives
10 Congress. That bill of abomina-
ton known as the Mckinley bill,
framed for the perpetuation of mon
opolies and calculated to make the
rich richer and the poor poorer by
tilching from the people their hard
earned gains in the shape of tariff
duties for the protection of the
bloated manufacturers of the East,
has at last become law, and the
honest and hard working people of
this country are asked to endorse
the outrage. Citizens of Mason
county, you, who arc laboring and
economizing in order to be able to
pay your local taxes, is it right to
keep in power a party which has
emptied the treasury, and is driven
TO the dire necessity of depressing
you thus in order to meet the ex-
penses of government?
The Democratic candidates for
Congress in West Virginia are with
the people in this struggle for hon
est and economical government.
West Virginia, too, is Democratic
State and should see to it that none
but Democrats arc put on guard to
watch her interests in the next Con-
gress.
The Fourth District will do her
part when she rolls up, as she will
do, a handsome majority for james
Capehart, that public spirited citi-
zen and intelligent business man,
who will have the independence to
assert his rights, and look carefully
after the interests ofhis constituents.
Mason county should do more than
her part in honoring her fellow
citizen who has always taken great
pride in whatever pertained to her
interests.
What matters it If Democratic
members for time find themselves
handicapped by u Republican Sen
ate2 The next Administration will
be Democratic, and the next Con-
gress also, SO it will only be a ques-
ton of time when the. Democratic
party will be in II position to shape
the legislation of the country.
