Nothing TO Gain.

The platform and enunciated
principles of the Peoples party is
so nearly identical with those of
Democracy in every thing that is
practicable that it is hard to see
why that any Democrat shonld
think of abandoning his old party
organization and allying himself
with the new candidate for public
favor. The only points of differ
ence between the two, may be
stated in few sentences. The new
party demands Government
Ownership of Railroads and Tel
egraphs, Ownership of Saloons.
An unlimited Greenbacll issue.
A two percent loan on Mortgage
security. Government warehouses
for farm products, and women suf-
rage. We are assured that no one
or all of these propositions together
will improve the condition of the
people at large, and each may sep
arately be attacked as class legis-
lature.
The ownership by the Govern
ment of the Rail roads and tele-
graphs are perhaps the most chi
merical and dangerous Of the prop
osltions. There are now in the
The Ohio Democrat. (Logan, O. [Ohio]) 1886-1906, 1891-09-26

United States, in operation 162,6S9
miles of rail road which according
to the latest statistics, cost, in con-
nection with equipment, Real Es-
tate, Depos, sidings etc, $10,205,4 ,493
0J0, and gives employment to 1000,
600 men. There are, independ-
ent of Rail road lines, S04,5SI
miles Of Telegraph costing SLIPS,
600 and employing 42,447 men.
Suppose these rail roads and tel
egraphs could be bought by the
Government ut their cost, which
can not be done, the interest on
the debt thus created at AZ per
annum, would amount to $4l2,217,
722 or a sum larger than all the
other legitimate expenses of the
Government. 1t is safe to say that
the principle of this immense debt
could never be paid, while the liq-
uidation of the interest would be a
grievous burden to succeeding gen
erations. Nor is this all, for the vast
army of employees, no matter to
which party they belonged would
WELD a political influence that
would accomplish the destruction
of civil liberty as effectually as an
army with banners. We pass over
the saloon scheme as too weak TO
contest.
The two percent loan and the
Government Warehouse scheme
may be classed together as en-
bOdying the extreme doctrine of
paternalism in the Government,
which is the direct opposite of our
present democratic form of gov
ernment and must eventually rob
the people of every constitutional
right. Our advice to Democrats is
to stand firm to their principles
and the teachings of the fathers in
the Democratic faith.

Silly's SIObber.

Silly Pursell has not been visible
this week and numerous inquiries
were made as to whether he was
out of town, but no definite infor-
nation could be obtained on the
subject.
Since this weeks issue of the
Gazette, however, the apparent alb
sence has. been accounted for. The
Gazette has an article in it this
week. 1t is the only original thing
Silly has been the author of for
a year, except the postoffice inves-
tigation trip he made over this
county for the purpose of assessing
the post masters for campaign pur-
poses.
Silly put in four days and nights
on his master piece, and it is now
before the public.
The article will make many
votes for the u. .. F., and raise
Silly to the very pinnacle of fame.
Even the leaders of his party, who
love Silly so well, and appreciate
his self denial in the cause of enc
Tinley," must appreciate this effort
and howl with delight
His readers can now see how
great Silly's knowledge, of the ia.
riff, free coinage and the other live
issues of the campaign is. The ar
ticle will convey tons of informa-
tion to the average Republican on
these questions and hence we ask
for it careful and prayerful read
ing.

McKinley's Latest Fish Story.

'The farmer was not protected, it
was said. Ask the Canadian far
mers who paid the tax. He takes
his bnshel of wheat to Buffalo, and
the Erie Comfy Farmer takes his
bushel of wheat to Buffalo. A dol
lar bushel is the regular price.
The Erie County farmer takes a
full dollar bushel home for his
wheat, the Canadian farmer takes
home IS cents, and leaves % cents
in the public treasury for your ben
eft and for mine."-McKinley at
Logan.
Major Mckinley evidently gross
ly under estimates the intelligence
of the good people of Hooking Val
ley. There is not a farmer in Cam
ada so intolerably stupid as to pay
twenty-five cents q bushel for per-
mission to sell wheat in Buffalo.
And there is not farmer in Ohio
fool enough to believe that a Can
adian farmer would do so unnec-
essary and senseless thing. There
is not market town from Toron to
to Quebec where the Canadian can
not get as much for his wheat as
he can obtain for it in Buffalo. Liver
pool makes the price, and the cost
for transportation to Liverpool
should be no more from Canada
than from the United States.-CoJ-
aL1lbMS Post.

who eat breadstuffs are those Of the

have been asked to protect American
labor, so that the toilers can buy and
pay for three square meals per day,
which they are unable to do across the
