Former Republican Comes Over Into the
Democratic Fold.

a Ormer RepuhNcun comes over Into the
Democratic Fold.
To ne Editor ofths Register:
SIR want to write you few lines
in reply TO an article concerning the
sale of wool made by Mr. y. Bell, of
Ohio county, about which the editor of
the h,telligcnccr said so much.
lie said that Mr.. Bell kept about 800
head OF sheep; that he sold his wool for
~ cents per pound. But he forget to
tell the intelligent voters how much net
he received. He received 80 cents in
New York city. The person who sold
it for him would charge him per cent.
for selling il. Counting railroad charges
and storage the sum total would be
nearly per cent, which would take of
scents per pound and leave him ~ cents
net per pound. The worthy editor at
tributes il the Mckinley bill. Deduct
ing about 20 per cent. this bill has put
upon WOODEN goods, he did not receive
more than forty cents. The advance
that wooden goods have taken under
this uefariOuS bill instead OF receiving
fOrty-nine cents at New York City, he
should have received about fifty-niue
cents per pound. Why is it that wages
have been cut down in all the large
wooden mills? Being always Repub-
lican until the last election, my eyes
were opened after that bill went into
effect. The hardest times this country
ever saw or ever expect TO see are under
benjamin Harrison, who has no interest
in the welfare Of the farmer or the
labOring man, but only in the monopc-
list. As former Republican give us
Grover Cleveland in 'g2 and he will
sweep the country. He is the poor mans
dearest friend aud the greatest states
man OF the Nineteenth century,
A FORMER REPUBLICAN.

since the men have had, through the
system OF profit sharing, what may be

The advances in duties which the law
has made are indefensible and absurd
We believe that most Of the men chiefly
concerned in the preparation Of the act
would acknowledge this now. At any
rate. the majority OF the Republican
voters were tOlerably well convinced
long ago of the folly and wickedness OF
this action. Reciprocity, however, as a
distinct working doctrine, is not affected
by these considerations except to be
rendered more popular and urgent.
This is To be- the great issue OF the com
ing canvass. The Republican National
platform in 1899 will come gu, boldly
and honestly in favor Of lowering OF
tariff barriers between the nations OF
this continent, and no man can obtain
the nomination who will not sincerely
