Pittsburg dispatch. [volume] (Pittsburg [Pa.]) 1880-1923, 1891-10-15

If the rain doesn't prevent. There will be
plenty of roast beef to eat, and with For
aker, Sherman and Mckinley for speakers,
oratory will not be lacking. On the way to
Dayton saw Chairman Hahn for few
moments.
'There is no question about McKinley's
election" he said. "It is settled beyond q
peradventure that he will have good, safe
majority. But the election of the head of
the ticket is not all there is in this fight.
The Legislature is very important. If the
House should be Democratic, then we
couldn't repeal the odious gerrymander,
and they would continue to have 16 Con-
gressmen for the next two years. The
Democrats concede Campbell's defeat, and
they are turning all their efforts to the
Legislature.
KNIVES OUT FOR CAMPBELL.
ssThere are too many knives out for the
Governor in his party, and the Democrats
who made threats before he was nominated
will have to carry them out to prove their
predictions. While Mckinley is drawing
large crowds, they do not insure the cleo
tion of the Legislature. We might have
10, 900 of majority in city, but it wouldn't
give us one additional member in the House
or Senate. 1 think the cities will go
strongly Republican, but the Republicans
should remember there are 20 doubtful
counties out of the SS in the State. That
means so many members of the Legislature.
81 have been calling in the County Chair
men, few at time, to instruct them to
watch the legislative ticket. Mckinley
from this time out will almost be able to
take care of himself. Another week will
tell the tale. Then number of things that
are doubtful now will be cleared up, and 1

eran Republican organization in Hamilton
county will help the State ticket but 1 am
afraid it will injure the county nominees.
The fight in Ashtabula county over the re-
moval of the Court House will help us, as
both candidates are Republican, and the
rivalry will bring out fuller vote.
"I expect to see Ashtabula roll up more
ballots than she ever did. People outside
of the State think we are all right, and so
we are, but tell you the fight is on the
Legislature, and nothing else. 1t will have
to be watched closely. Taylor will surely
be elected in Guernsey county, but about
two weeks ago was afraid the Peoples
party man would pull through"
DEMMLER TIN PLATE DISPLAY.
Mckinley will be in Columbus Saturday
evening. Among the features of the demon
stration will be the exhibition of lot of
canned tomatoes The tin plate was
made at Demmler. The cans were turned
out and filled by the Xenia Canning Com
pany. The object is to show what the tariff
will no for home production. Mr.. Hahn is
determined to make the Columbus meeting
big success. Chairman Hahn has received
letter from j. W. Gates, President of the
Braddock Wire Company, which explains
itself 1t is this:
Please say to Major Mckinley that since
the Mckinley bill took effect in July, $780,
the price OF wire nails has declined fully
from $40 to Sl2 per ton and wire nails can be
purchased to-day at Salem, Findlay, Cleve-
land and Pittsburg at ~ cents per pound.
This is lower price on wire nails than is to-
day made in England. Barbed fence wire,
which, before the Mckinley bill took effect,
was selling at cents per pound for painted
and 81 cents for galvanized, is now selling
for 219 cents for painted and cents for gal
vanized and to-day barbed wire can be pur-
chased lower in Ohio and Pennsylvania than
in any other portion of the known world,
Notwithstanding free trade England.
Say to him that we are selling thousands
of tons of barbed wire in Africa, England,
South America and Australia in competition
with all makers, both of Continental Europe
and the British Isles, and are able to get
from 81 90 to So 90 moro per ton for our
product in competition with foreign makers
than we can get for it in competition with
American manufacturers. ISRAEL.
