Ever since the Ohio Democratic con-
ventiOn ad jOurned the friends of ex-
President Cleveland have been in
somewhat nervous state. The adoption
of the free coinage plank they regarded
a serious mistake, and its presence in
the platform. they argued, made it i'm
possible for Mr.. Cleveland to go TO Ohio
and assist Governor Campbell in his ef-
fort to be reelected. But the success
OF the Ohio democrats without the as
sistance of Mr.. Cleveland would also i'm
pair the ex-president's chances in 1892,
so it was very hard for Mr.. Cleveland's
friends to decide what would be the bet
ter course to pursue Washington

am one of those that believe that
these men from your shops, these farm
ers remote from money centers, have
the largest interest OF all people OF the
world in having dollar that is worth
100 cents every day in the year. and
only such. If by any chance we should
fall into a condition where one dollar is
not so good as another, 1 venture the
assertion that the poorer dollar will do
its first errand in paying some poor la
borer for his work. Therefore, in the
conduct OF our public affairs, feel
pledged for one that all the influences
of the government should be on the side
OF giving the people only good money.

Fifty-fve millions of dollars saved to
the people of the United States is the
record of the Mckinley law for the first
nine months. Free sugar accounts for
about one-half Of the reduction, and the
benefit of this is felt on every table in
the land. The other half is accounted
for by the fact that laces. hats, cutlery.
wooden cloth, dress goods. etc., to the
amount OF many millions, are no longer
bought from European manufacturers,
but are purchased from Americans
This means added prosperity to trade
1t means that factories will be kept run
ming which continued European impOr-
tations would have closed; it means that
men and women are and will be en-
ployed who would otherwise be seeking
in vain for work. 1t means the Ameri-
can market for the American people
New York Press.
The stale maxim ofthe free trade doc
trinaires that our protectivs tariff linn
its the market and restricts the sale of
American farm products and manufac-
tured wares, is receiving some hard
knocks about these days. Within a few
months after the Mckinley tariff be-
came operative, we see very marked
increase in our export trade, and the
present prospect is that we shall not bs
able to supply the foreign demand for
breadstuffs and provisions. This signi.
ties that people abroad, as at homo. buy
what they need, without regard to tn,
commercial amenities. That's the law
