The hollowness of the pretense by
the New York World and other papers
that they are raising campaign fund
for educational purposes is shown by
the fact that these papers do not dis
cuss campaign issues. but confine their
editorial efforts to Misrepresentation
of the Republican policy and to false
statements concerning their own party

THE following, from the Sentinel of
April 25, 1890, was given by a Demo-

1t is apparent that the Republican party has
kept faith with the soldiers and has more than
redeemed the pledges it has made. and Will do
even more as the opportunity presents itself.

INDIANA TEMPLATE.

A statement published in this issue of
the Journal relative to the American
tin-plate- works at Elwood. Ind, should
be read by all who wish to be correctly
informed in regard to the status and
prospects of that industry. There has
been a great deal of very vicious lying
about these works by the Democratic
free-trade press. and in order to ascer-
tain the facts the Journal sent reporter
to Elwood. to go through the works and
state the exact facts about them. The
report shows beyond doubt that the
American tin-plate- works are bona
tide business undertaking, backed
by men of means and enterprise,
who intend to make success of 1t and
expect to do so if present conditions
continue. Democratic papers assert
most positively that tin-plate is not and
cannot be manufactured successfully in
this country. A sufficient reply to this
is that the American tin plate at
Elwood is doing it. After reading the
report no one can doubt that the COM
pany has valuable plant, that it is
manufacturing an excellent quality of
tin plate in marketable quantities, and
that, for the length of time since it was
organized, less than year, it has ac-
complished a great deal. The prod
uct of the American tin-plate- works
falls very far short of meeting
the American demand, and yet
six carloads a week is by no means an
Insignificant product. Within few
weeks this output will be doubled, max
ing an annual product, at present
prices of tin, of from 5000. 900 to S7O0. 900
a year. Such an industry as this is a
desirable acquisition to any community.
and Indiana cannot have too many of
them.
The Journals statement in regard to
these works is conclusive and should
set at rest all doubts as to the success
full manufacture of tin-plate in Indiana.
