Remarkable Cure
Ayers Sar sapariIIa,

else gets it, What is that TO them? don't
believe that anyone, however personally pop
ular he may be-even with all the magnet
ism claimed for the great Jim Blaine could
60 before and intelligent people and create
any enthusiasm, upon mere question OF who
should have an apple dumping. 1t would
be victory without sense or season, rhyme
or season. won't enter into scramble for
an apple-dumpling, am afraid, if elected, our
leading newspapers would caricature me in
picture of fat chubby, chuckling boy,
holding triumphanty above my head dump
ling, longed for and reached for by diSap-
pointed and crying brothers. No, away with
such foolishness!
Give the voter principle to espouse;
something to fight for, of which he need not
be ashamed, and he will go forth to the bat
tie Of the ballots with an open countenance. a
proud spirit, an easy conscience and firm
resolve. Give us principle that is at once
appropriate and suggestive. Then, as this is
time of such crushing burdens on the farm
er in all his relations of trade, and Of such
constant disregard Of his rights in every re-
spect, and as intelligent farmers everywhere
are earnestly craving and anxiously seeking
any and every opportunity to express emphat-
ic disapproval Of the existing state of affairs.
|, therefore, fellow-citizens, instead of the
disgusting and meaningless picture Of an apple
dumping, here to-day unfur to you the proud
banner of Fair trade and Farmers rights
unfolding principle-not mere sentiment
but gloious principle, strong..and broad
enough and long enough to reach every hon
est man, and to cover US all with everything
we could ask or desire. To some it might at
| first appear that the motto of Fair trade and
Eve,ybody's rights would be better; but this
would not point out the evil that most sorely
Expresses us, nor would it mean an unequiv-
ocal demand for its redress.
Let me remind you that the most effective
powerful and soul-stirring appeal ever raised
in this republic, was that OF Free trade ant
Sailors rights" that rang out over the unior
in the war of 1872. which made its hero-ou
own glorious Andrew Jackson of Tennessee
twice President of the United States. ia,
more powerful and effective should our pres
ent motto be, as fair trade is purer and bette
al, f. Ia IL al /, Co;
and as the number and power of sailors are
and were, as nothing compared with the mum
Der and power Of farmers. Then, will 20,
fight for dumplings or farmers rights! Ar
you a Dumplingite OF Fairlrader? VII
You 60 with the apple-dunplng coterie, q
will you 90 forth with us to the battle OF tn
ballots, under the cheering and inspirn
presence of Fair trade and Farmers rights
For this shall be our slogan in the thickest Of tn
fight:
The watch word Of freemen and the battle cry {
might,
Let it be caught up in victory ct the con
fines Of your district, by your fellowfarmer
!, Of other parts and borne throughout the III
ion as their party cry; and there can be n
doubt of sweeping on and on from victory I
victory, until our glorious banner is plante
in triumph upon the dome of the capitol
Washington-high up to the right hand {
the approving and gladdened Goddess (
Liberty.
The war Of 1872, eliminated in a gran
/ and glorious victory at New Orleans, whic
, furnishes one of the brightest pages Of o,
: country's history. But far brighter will tina
page be, that records the victory for Fai
trade and Farmers rights; for it will prov
the success of our form of government in tn
triumph of great principle, without the fore
Of arms. And fellow citizens, it will not b
an empty and meaningless victory, hut you
hearth-stoncs will grow brighter from tina
day.
