Is CAMPBELL AFRAID?

We are gravely informed that Governor
CAMPBELL, of Ohio, has been too cowardly
to accept the Democratic platform on sill
yer, ard that as a consequence he will he
defeated next Tuesday. This is peculiarly
rich, the declaration coming In the face of
the fact that Governor CAMPBELL. since
his recovery, has been making from one to
three speeches every twenty-four hours
and in many of these speeches. he has said
more or less in reference to sill.
yer, and everything that he has said
has been in direct line of the hearty en-
dorsement of the free silver plank. Last
week, on Thursday, CAMPBELL addressed
a meeting in New Lisbon. Columbian
county, veritable hotbed of Republican.
ism. 1t may be remarked that the largest
hall IN town was too small for the crowd
that assembled, and hundreds of farmers
who had come FROM miles around s.ood
about the open windows and doors in q
drilling rain, listening to the candidate Sc
he rolled out the logic which converted
and convinced. He opened his speech with
remarks on silver, and here is part of
what he said, enough to show whether or
not ne is cowsrdly as to the subject:
Major MCKINLEY has been pratinc abop,
silver and taking care not 10 explain the RI,
publican position. AT Columbus, where he
spoke Saturday night, ALLEN w. THURMAN
asked him series OF questions on silver Tho
major lodged them then, but he's going m
speak In this county tomorrow, and as this is
the closest ne Il get to me in this race laugh.
teri III ask some OF the questions over again
and give him another chance The Democratic
position is as plain as the nose on YOUR face
We believe in the metals of the constitution
ooth OF tnen. We believe in the words Major
MCKINLEY wrote last October to the secretary
OF the Farmers alliance in Stark county: q
would honor gold and silver alike.n That's orr
position. The major was Democrat lust long
enough to write that letter II is true that the
Democrats are divided on this question. but the
division is no worse than In the Republican
party.
From Ohio 10 the Pacific every Rennb,;can
convention has favored free silver and evarv
eastern Republican convention has opposed il
In the Senate the Republicans divided upon the
silver question, 81 to Is. The major votei for
free silver in 1916. He says he favored il then
because there were only eight millions of silver
in circulation. and he opposes it now beoanse
there are 1902 600, 600 in circulation. At Tofedo
last February the major made a speech criti
cising GROVER CLEVELAND because he had been
an enemy to one OF the money metals of III a
country. In February he was opposing those
who opposed free silver. There were then saoo
ooO 900 OF silver in circulation. Now. where be-

RECKLESS NATURALIZATION.

The week before last In the New York
superior court 5000 persons were natural
lied. 1t is unnecessary to inquire into the
matter as to which of the political parties
did the most ''rustling" in the business and
viii get the majority of the votes of these
newlymsde citizens. The parties are not
to blame, nor are the politicians nor is the
law at fault. The statute provides that
before admitting an alien to citizenship the
court shall be satisfied that the applicant
has resided in the United States five years,
and IN the state one year, and that during
that time he has behaved as man of good
moral character, attached to the prin-
ciples Of the constitution of the
United States and well disposed to the
good order and happiness OF the same.m
The law covers ali the ground that Is neo-
sssary and does not leave too great discre-
ton with the judge; but it does assume
that the judge will exercise that discretion
In reasonable ana proper manner The
statute contemplates an investigation
which shall establish the facts that ought
to ne proven, namely, that the man is of
good moral character and has fulfilled the
statutory requirements as to age, length of
residence, department, ETC.; that he has
read the constitution and is familiar with
the principles contained in it, for without
knowing what these principles are how can
man say whether or not he is attached to
theml In the case of immigrants these in
quiries are not essential, all that is re-
Qulred being a reasonable knowledge that
LIE newcomer is likely to develop
into q worthy resident and will not
become a charge upon the community.
When it comes to citizenship the law con-
templates that the individual shall have
proven by his acts as a resident that ne is
worthy the privileges which will follow
bis naturalization, and that tue proof shall
be satisfactory to the judge BOW is it
possible for Judge to become satisfied in
the cases Of 5000 persons in one week.
Sitting ten hours day his honor would be
compelled to inquire into So cases an hour,
or at the rate Of ~ cases 9, cry minute.
At this rate how much could Judge learn
OF an individuals What could the apph-
cant say in the time which would satisfy
the Judge that he (the applicant) was ia
miliar with principles of the American
government as set out in the constitution.
md that he was attached to those princi-
plesi The mere suggestion of the thing is
Udicrous.
When men complain that vicious or igno.
rant aliens become citizens and exercise
the rights, privileges and powers of the
best ana most intelligent of native born
inhabitants, they should direct their CEN
sure against the judges and not against the
law, which is intended to do its full share
in The work of protecting both the worthy
aliens who want to become citizens and the
citizenship Of the republic. The courts are
at fault

Now, tomorrow hope the major will answer
these questions: In the first place. will not the
31l,, grains of pure silver in dollar buy as
much OF anything in the world, except gold , as
u would in 1873, and Of many things will it not
ouy more? II its purchasing power has not de-
creased, why DO you call IL dishonest dollar!
Ii the gold dollar be the more honest dollar be.
cause 1t will buy more, does it not follow that
the greater the purchasing power the more
honest the dollar: Has not gold increased in
value instead Of silver decreasing? If gold has
appreciated in value is gold dollar an honest
dollar: If the production Of gold is decreasing,
VIII not Its purchasing power be enhanced and
Will not all debtors have to pay more to meet
with gold dollars liabilities now incurred? Do
you believe that either gold or silver alone ill
furnish money enough for the business of the
world! Now, have talked silver to crafty the
major and 1 want him to answer these ques.
uons to crafty me. II you want your debts
increased before you can pay them by the in
crease in value of the gold dollar vote the Re-
publican ticket, If you want to pay your DEBTS
honestly in money OF the same value that it is
now, vote the Democratic ticket. That's the
silver question in nutshell.
Does this sound like coward. Does it
sound as if he were afraid to talk about
silver2 AS if he were not a believer In
silver: AS if he were not in sympathy
with the party's position on the white
metal?
On the same occasion Governor CAMP
BELL had something to say concerning tin,
and this is part of what he said: 81 have
received box OF tin-plate from Demmler,
Pa, just like that President HARRISON re-
celved the other day. They sent an afi-
davis with mine. which says: These plates
are made by American worl1men, with
American machinery, from American steel
blllets, and the only material in them that
had to be imported was tho tim In letter
accompanying the tin the manufacturers
said they had been making tin this way for
fifteen years, SO that the MCKINLEY bill
had nothing to DO with it. A fruit importer
might just as well call himself banana
raiser, because he imported green bananas
and hung them up to ripen in his store.
GOVERNOR CAMPBELL does not appear to
be afraid to discuss any of the issues of
the campaign. He discusses them all aud
In way to strike terror into the hearts
OF MCKINLEY and his followers, who are
amazed at the inroads which the governor
Is making to the Republican ranks. If
CAMPBELL would not talk so much about
silver end tin and wool and the rob-
Der tariff MCKINLEY would be
more hopeful Of next Tuesday. In
Illustration of how much talking
CAMPBELL is doing it may be- said
that after the New Lisbon meeting he drove
sixteen miles in the dark over mountain
roads to East Liverpool, reaching there in
time to make speech to an immense gath
ing OF workmen in the potteries.

HE ELECTION in Cork threatens to be-
come sort of Donney brook fair.

WHEN JUDGE COOLEY resigned from the
interstate commerce commission few
weeks ago, he said the whole affair was q
dismal failure. To be sure tits. Who ex-
pected that it would be any thing else? The
law is wrong in principle and worse in
practice. The statute was put in the books
because the politicians wanted to do some
thing to pscify the granger element, but
there was never any intention of interior
ing with the practices of the RAILWAYS
which were Objectionable.

THIS is not the first time the idea of an
American Pope has been advanced, but
aside from giving 8 few individuals q
chance to relieve their vivid imagination
there is nothing in it. With very few ex-
ceptions, the Pope has always been an
Italian cardinal, and it is not likely this
rule will be ignored when it comes to the
next election, least of all in favor of a
Protestant country like the United States.
Signor CEsAh,E whoever he may be, will
lind it more difficult to get the ear of the
college of cardinals, when it comes to that
than the ear of the press.
