How wonderfully quiet the Demo-
cratic papers have become about the
great sins that Franklin B. Cotton COM
mitted as the inspector OF the Twelfth
election district nearly year ago.
From the manner In which the
Democratic papers raved about the
matter an outsider might have sup
posed that Mr.. Cotton was one of the
worst Of men. No less violent were
the accusations against Mr.. Col
ton for the active part he took In the
election in the Sixth district Fifth ward,
last June, when father and son who
ran the election in way that made 1t
easy for Democrats, and difficult tor
Republicans to vote, saw proper to
make themselves scarce, one by seal.
ing the back yard fence, and the other
by rushing across the street and put
ting himself under the protection Of
the police .....
Mr.. Cotton did nothing to alarm
anybody. He is small gentleman,
genial, alfable, polite, good business
man, strong Republican, but the lat
ter was his sin in Democratic eyes. He
believed in right and Justice, in fair
elections, and no bulldozing. Mr..
Cotton, with possibly the exception
OF Captain Mitchell, became the most
abused man in the Republican party
But he didn't mind it. He just kept
on in the even tenor OF his way, turn.
ing neither to the right nor to the left
He has becoinea leading man In the
business OF the city. He is an acknowl
edged factor in the city railway deyel'
opments. Men like Mr.. Cotton were
wanted in the City Council, and the
Fifth ward sent him there for u second
term.
While he is not boss-his whole
Instincts oppose bossism he has
certainly become safe leader fol-
his party SO long In tho past in a
minority. Aschairman OF tho Finance
Committee he conducts everything in
a safe and business like manner and
has the confidence and thanks OF th,
business part of the community.
This is u solid Offset TO the abuse oil

who found they couldn't bulldoze

more was said about the tin plate sit
uation, at the risk OF being called a
''tin-plate liar OF course it IL not
agreeable to our Democratic friends
to hear OF the great success Of this in
dustry in the United States, but that
is no reason why the truth should not
be told about the tin Industry. 1t was
unfortunate for the Democrats that
they started out In high termed de-
nunciations OF the mckinley bill as it
effected the manufacture OF tin plates.
They were quite sure such thing
could not he done in this country any
how that the people would have TO
keep on purchasing their tin plates
from the English and Welsh manufac-
turers paying such prices as they saw
proper to charge: that the added duty
under the Mckinley bill would be an
added tax upon tile purchasers; that
there was not skilled labor in our own
country TO manufacture tin plate, and
anyhow, even IL such thing could be
done, there were no tin mines in Amer
lea that would turn out enough tin to
cover the plates, and after all tin would
have to be brought from Australia,
where England got her tin, and the tin
plates, when we got them, could not
be called American tin.
These and many more were the pre-
dictions and objections OF the Demo-
Gratis, and Notwithstanding the fact
that they are still keeping up that line
of argument yet upon the principle
that one lie at first takes two more
to hide it, they have not succeeded
In their desperate attempts to pre-
vent American men with Amer
lean capital from embarking
largely in the enterprise of manurac-
turing American tin. Neither is the
industry confined to Americans and
American capital, as English and
Welsh manufacturers arc preparing to
move their plants TO America to get
the advantages secured under the Mc-
Kinley tariff bill. 1t would bo much
more graceful for our Democratic
friends II they would just acknowledge
their error at once and no longer keep
up this wicked attempt to deceive the
people.
