sustained the law. New Industries have been
established; and more are soon to follow. Manu-
iactured goods are cheaper, not higher. The
products Of the farm are bringing better prices.
Mortgages are being paid of. Labor is well EN-
ployed' More money is in circulation PER capita
than ever before; and it is all good money Every
| dollar is worth its face in gold.
| We are about to enter upon another national
campaign, and the Republicans are full of courage
ana confidence. Even the Democrats have ceased
their gibberish about the Republican party being
dead Their leading journals are all agreed
that without the State of New-Yorl;
| IN the coming election the Democracy
Is doomed to defeat The Republicans may win
without that State The Democracy, by no
manner of means, can do SO. The great North
west is again practically conceded to the Repub-
licans. They are therefore going to win the
contest united and strong.
We Republicans know in what we believe We
| are in favor of protection, in favor Of honest
money, in favor of reciprocity, and fair elections
and honest count. We are in favor of this
American Republic and purpose to stand by our
| own country
| How about our friends the DemocratsP They
! are divided and at war among themselves. They
| have just closed contest for Speaker in which
| they said things about each other as hard as
we have ever charged them with. They are not
agreed on any great public policy. Some Of them
are for and some against the free coinage of
silver Some are for and some against free trade.
Some are for Mr.. Cleveland and some against him.
Some claim that reciprocity is a good thing for
this country, while others pronounce 1t fraud.
The Democrats seem able to unite upon only one
thing They can at any rate join in denouncing
the Republican party and its principles. They
| cannot agree upon any policy Of their own.

wisdom of its authors by blessing the entire
Nation The fruit it bears shows the nature
Of the tree. The National debt is being
paid. Our soldiers receiving their
welcomed pensions. A Navy is being built. The
Treasury of the Nation is in excellent condition
Our people are prosperous. The United States Is
getting ready to produce its own tin plate, and
is even opening up mines Of pure tin. Already
pigs of tin metal taken from American mines
are sold weekly in our markets Linen factories
are being built and run American soil, and
are consuming the fibre of American fax. Fac
tories for the manufacture of beet sugar are in
process of erection and the culture Of the sugar
beet will soon be one of the great industries OF
the farmers Of this country. The wild theories
as 10 finance and Governmental aid have had
their rum and people once more coming to
their senses. Cranks have had their day, and
ing to the front
One such able, clear and convincing statement
as is made by Secretary Foster in his report
is worth more to clear away the mist and teach
the people financial wisdom than dozen volumes
of such vagaries as are daily published by the
Jerry Simpsons and set ahoat by the fiat money
fends of the United States
Hence l say to the Republicans Of this Nation
be of good cheer. Our party was never In petter
form for square stand-up fight than 1t is to-day
The situation is in every way more promising
than it was four years ago. The Democratic
House of Representatives In Congress has just
organized. II there is anything in the situation
unfavorable to the Republican cause, you can
safely trust that House to remove it. The Ad-
ministration is being run carefully, conservatlVey
and with consummate skill and marked ability.
Borrow no trouble about the coming candidate!
He will be some in whom our people believe, In
whom we can safely trust. The convention at
Minneapolis will decide that question wisely and
we'll In the meantime let us all unite in an old
fashioned. welldirected effort to present solid
'front.'
The Tribune will be in this battle to win.
You can rely upon its zeal and love for the party
and its principles. You can depend upon the
truthfulness of its teachings Read it yourselves;
and get your neighbors to read it also! If you
are puzzled over the tariff or the currency, SEND
along your question with regard to the point you
| have in mind. II 1t is possible to help you out,
| your question will be answered. The coming
campaign will be one Of education. The enemy
cannot avoid the real issues Of the day if they
try. The Republican party is one of principle.
We proud of our past record, know what
we believe, and have great faith in the good
sense and real patriotism of the American people.
Our cry then is Ho every man to his tent ,
We have crafty and INSCRIPTIONS foe to fight.
| We know his methods and understand to what
| iniquity he will resort in his desperation. The
| Tribune believes the Republican policy is right.
We propose to stand by our guns. Let every
| Republican then fall into line" Organize
| thoroughly and begin work! up, boys, and at
| 'em!" The victory is ours if each Republican
will do his duty. r. G. HORR
