THE business failures occurring
throughout the country during the last
seven days were 335, about one hundred
larger than for any corresponding week
of Grover Cleveland's administration,
and larger than ever before known in
the history of this country. This, too,
with magnificent crops and large for
eign demand, and all the conditions
favorable for big business boom. But
II does no good to complain. The
trusts are all doing well, and the mo-
nopolists are deep in clover. Read the
Presidents message, bless the Mckinley
bill and its author and brace up. We

A PREPosrERous PROPOSITION.

A Democrat should not admit, even
for argument, that a Protectionist is an
honest man. He may admit that
he is deluded, that he is an ignorant
victim of the Protection bunco, but the
proposition that the Protectionist can
be honest is unthinkable. Protection
in its very terms is theft. 1t is protec-
tion in depriving another man of his
share of sunshine; of natural opportu-
mites. 1t can be granted only to
small number; to class, as a class
privilege, aud 1t merely takes from
many to give to one. 1t changes a
natural condition; 1t redistributes
wealth as all theft does, but it creates,
and can create nothing more than theft
does. There is not an argument in
favor of Protection that does not apply
to theft, and honest men everyW here
should oppose Protection on one ground
and only one ground-that it Is theft
There should be only one objection
urged to a Protectionist- that he is
either thief or an advocate of theft.
Protection must prove that it is right.
The other side is not called upon to
prove that 1t is wrong to men of sense.
And the time will come when the ring
of Protection thieves, now honored as
the Tweed ring was in 1870 when every
Republican newspaper within the city
and State was defending it and its
thieves character against "The
Worlds" attacks will meet with the
same fate that overlook the ring of
protected thieves.
And the name of Bill Mckinley will
sink hundred fold worse than that of

SENATOR SHERMAN has introduced
a bill to promote and encourage the
display of flags in the United States.
John should encourage the principles
that the flag was originally intended to
represent and typify. 1t stands for
patriotism, National unity, equal rights
and true representativeg government.
John voted to steal two L. s. Senators
from Montana. He voted TO make
seven rotten borough States, with IA U.
5. Senators, whose combined population
is less than that of Ohio. John was
also one of the chief conspirators in the
Presidential steal of 1876. His record
does not justify any fooling with flag

SOME of our Alliance Democrats
think 1T will be hard work for Editor
Phelps, with his strong Democratic
convictions, to edit Republican news
paper. They fail to take journalistic
view. A we'll equipped editor is sup
posed to know both sides of every put
lie question, just as a lawyer is sup
posed to be prepared to take sither side
of legal controversy. There are al
ways two sides to every case, and no
trial ever takes place in court where
there is not lots of law quoted on both
sides. We believe Editor Phelps will
prove equal to the emeI gency. He
should, however, commence 10 inform
himself on the origin, history and prog
ress of so-called Protection. In order
to do this, the study of Chinese history
is indispensable. This has been a pa
triarchal despotism for about 5000 years
and the present Emperor, Toong Chez
has furnished the modern Protection
lists with all their pointers. If Mr..
Phelps will write to Chang Ten Yoon,
Chinese Minister to the United States
on Dupont Circle, Washington, he can
get much valuable information for fu-
ture editorials on Paganism, Paternal-
ism and Protection.

DELIGHTFUL DEMOCRATIC TRUTH

(From the Mansfield shleld.)

The Shield is pleased to note the great
and deserved success of the Canton
NEws-D which on last Sat
urday moved into its handsome new
four-story building, a marvel of con-
Venience for its business purposes and
architectural beauty. That excellent
publication has deserved the success it
attained and it is now, as it long has
been, the leading daily newspaper in
north central Ohio, outside of Cleve-
land. 1t is bright, crisp and entertain
ing at all times, and above everything
is Democratic to the backbone. The
NEws-DEMOCRAT's excellent labor in
the cause of tariff reform is known all
over Ohio and is a conspicuous fruit of
able journalism. In its successful in
duction to its handsome new home and
in its manifold evidences of thrift and
prosperity, the Shield extends its
earnest and hearty congratulations
The plant is one the oldest in the state,
the Shield, however, outranking it in
age by about l6 years.
