The News-Herald. [volume] (Hillsboro, Highland Co., Ohio) 1886-1973, 1890-10-30

The republicans of this district have a
great responsibility placed upon their.
Great national issues are at stake. Two
years ago the great arch.enemy was
roundly beaten at the polls and the Re:
publican party swept into power, being
placed in control of all departments of
the government. Within one year they
enacted legislation more important and
wide reaching than any since the war
and accomplished reforms in parlia-
mentary procedure which will endure as
long as legislative bodies are constituted
as they now are. They initiated other
lines of legislation equally radical and
progressive, looking toward the estab-
lishment of free ballot and a fair
count
All these measures have been met by
the most determined and deadly oppo.
sition that the Democratic party in all
its career of obstruction and reaction
has ever attempted. The minority in
the House has tried by every effort
known to desperation to accomplish
what they had failed to accomplish by
direct appeal to the people. The Re-
publican party, in spite of every obstacle
that human ingenuity could oppose to
them, have carried their point and now
come before the people for an endorse.
ment of their course.
The people of this district are entitled
to one Representative in the next Con-
gress, the control of which is necessary
to the carrying out of the great policies
of Republicanism. While every effort
has been made to cheat the great State
OF Ohio and of her true representation,
there is still fighting chance left to
Republicans in this district. Remember
that while we have free and fair ex.
preston at the ballot, there are twenty
five equally populous districts in the
country in which the voice and choice
of the people will not be expressed and
in each of which Democratic Congress-
man is as sure to be elected as if the
diTeduy naO Deen.
The duty is imperative upon Republi.
cans to see that this district has a repre-
sentative in the next Congress who will
vote with the Republican party. 1t is
an outrage that the weight of the great
State should be thrown against the prin-
ciples which the majority of her people
believe. Such will be the case il the
Democratic programme as expressed in
the infamous gerrymander is carried
out.
When the importance OF Republican
vote in the next Congress is considered.
local differences should sink into insip.
nifcance. Not one vote should be
thrown away to crafty whim or fad.
Every Republican vote for Rhoades
would be vote for Pattison. Would
you vote for Pattison over Rhoades'
shoulders?
Loudon is undoubtedly a dangerous
opponent for Pattison in that part of the
dirtrict where they ara best known, 90
that united effort in this county might
bring up the balance requisite 70 tip the
beam in his favor. Vote for Loudon.
The News-Herald. [volume] (Hillsboro, Highland Co., Ohio) 1886-1973, 1890-10-30

The Gazette plainly shows what we
have been trying to demonstrate to our
readers for some time, that the principles
of the Peoples Party are closely allied
to those of the Democratic Party on the
tariff. Rhoades is in favor Of absolute
free trade, giving European goods free
swing of our markets and raising the
national revenues by direct tax on the
people. He hates the name of tariff
whether for revenue or protection.
Pattison is on platform which con.
demns protection, but proposes to raise
revenue by tariff. Now one of these
theories is as impracticable and as far
removed from our present system as the
other. Protection must be destroyed in
order for either of these to be established.
So that thus far their way lies together.
A vote for either of the men is vote to
break down the entire system and aban-
don the principle of protection. Thus it
makes little difference to the old case
hardened Democrat which ticket he
votes, and you may depend on it he will
not follow off after strange gods, for he
is already joined to his idols. Republi-
cans have had this trick played on them
before, and those of them who are mem.
bers of the Alliance should not allow
themselves to be left holding the bag
while the Democrats 60 off with their
own party.

tburdened it's columns, or annoyed its
patrons, with appeals or complaints as
to hardness in paying subscriptions.
None know better than we do that
times are and have been hard with
the farmers, and knowing this, we
have been lenient beyond our ability
with many of our friends. The rela-
lions between this paper and the
farmers are so intimate that as they
suffer we suffer. With our next issue
closes our fourth volume. We have
time and again asked our friends to
let us begin u next volume with
~"clear books" We, therefore, hope
they will Immediately remit the amount
they are due us. We should greatly
regret to lose a single subscriber, but
if we do not hear from those in ar
rears promptly we shall take it for
granted that they do not want the
paper longer. Such a paper as The
PROGRESSIVE FARMER cannot live ION a
credit system, especially when it is
put at the low price of one dollar.
viii not the brethren of the Alliance
all over the State make 1t point at
their meat meeting to bestir themselves
and extend its circulation in their
midst? The brotherhood will need
the paper more during the year 1890
than aver before. Will not the. hUe,
energetic members exert themselves at
the next meeting of their Alliance to
send us more subscribers? This article
is intended for all who read it.

"Soon we will hear that the will of
the people shall be the law of the
land" So says the NeVs and Observer.
Well, wouldn't that be a deplorable
and An alarming state Of affairs?
Washington, Adams, Jefferson and
the old time patriots thought that the
evil of the people" should always
be regarded even in the important
matter of shaping 'the law of the
land" Who represents the will of
the people in North Carolina? Such
men as Alexander, Elias Carr, Gen.
Vance, Johnson, Green, Newborn,
Beddingfeld, Holman, Worth, Van
Ltndley, Darden, Cook, "zeb." Vance,
Daily, Moye, Graham, Cheek, McIn-
tyre, McIver, Wilcox, Stevens, Bea-
map, Oates, McClammy, Scarborough,

good and true men. When the
will of such men "shall be the law
of the land" we shall hear less
of injustice and oppression and better

ruined" and saltpeter will not save US
and our farms and homes if there is
no relief near at hand.
What we want is uniformity of
action by the masses. If it is political
ofice-seekers that is keeping US apart
as a people, why kick them out and
let them go over to the monopoly,
where they belong. We can't afford
to have u good work broken up by
a few political tricksters. We say and
know that those different branches of

SILVER.

WE have been told officially that
w silver was ostracised by the
commercial world, and that it could
no longer occupy the l~egal.tender
functions it once did. Secretary
Window has prepared a bill to issue
certificates on bullion deposited. This
was framed with a view of keeping it
an inferior metal. A government has
just as good a right to measure gold
by the silver standard as silver by the
gold standard. Count Rosconi well
said: GA metal is one thing but
money is another. Nature makes
metal, Iaw alone makes money.
Suppose Secretary WINDOWS bill
should become a law. If at any time
the market price of silver should ex.
coed the limit of the law, then the
Secretary can refuse to receive bull.

and the United States are arranging
for the more perfect demonstration
of silver. England is coming in as a
silver purchaser after all these years
that she has opposed to issue silver
certificates.

make its readers believe that The
Progressive FARMER had been guilty
of styling it ''the organ of the party"
THE PRoGREssIvE FARMER is not

and sincerely begs the forgiveness of

It's little whip. 1t can't help it. 1t is

serene in the thought that the News

yet notforfeit his place in party ranks.

they will raise their own meat, it will
be worth more to them than the
Agricultural Department, College
and Farmers Alliance, for which they
pay at least sixty thousand dollars a
r."-PerSon Courier.
Yes, and if the people would edu-
cate themselves we would not need
to pay more than twenty times
$50, 900 for school books and the
the services of thousands of school
teachers in this and other States. But
they won't do it and we must sup
port the schools. But when we get
an Agricultural College and the Far
mers Alliance, both of which are in
tended to train and educate our work
ing classes, some little editor has to
Jump up and howl about the cost;
cry "hog and hominy," or else tell Us
that we don't work half hard enough,
or some other nonsense.
But some people in this country
prefer that the farmers work from
the dawn of day till night, then
cram his stomach full of cabbage and
bacon, or the proverbial "hog and
hominy," then lie down and snatch a
little rest and repeat the same day
after day.
That is the plan some have. They
know that the man who will do this
will have no time to think and cannot
meet with his neighbors and discuss
matters concerning their general well
