S1R:-To the readers of the REGISTER l
want 70 say few words. Especially 10
the labOring men. Nowadays you hear
great deal about free trade England, Let
Us see how large a country England Is
She is about as large as the State OF New
York. England has population OF ABOUT
40 OJO coo, or nearly 400 10 the square
mile. West Virginia contains p, COO square
miles. If she had the same population TO
the square mile as England her population
would 90 q,GO0,0 900. The State or New
York would contain 40OOO,C0O lnhaol-
tapts. A farmer owning 600 acres OF land
according to the number Of Inhabitants 10
the square mile in England would have
upOn his 600 acres 3T5 persons. II we would
nut 5000 900 Of inhabitants IN West Nlr-
ginia what wages would we laoorlng men
received Where we now receive 81 per
dav we would not receive more than thirty
cents per day. The United States would
contain nearly one billion OF inhabitants.
To hear the Republican orators talk they
would try 10 make US laborlng men OeleVe
that England was q larger country than
the United States.
The Republican party say they are the
moral party So are the devil and ms
angels. They depend upon Doodle aud prln-
ciDal How they love the poor labOrlng
man of West Virginia. But the poor coal
diegers of West Virginia. But they DO
NOT want the poor white men TO work 10
their mines. They fill their E-des Win
Door ignorant negroes. The schemes OF
Such nefariOus fiendS as Stephen Is. Eiklus
sCtS luaU cue schemes o. SuCn men Is THESE
shall meet a Waterloo in West Vir5 inia on
the Sth OF November The State authori-
ties should arrest every negro that has
been brought into the State, as this is an
election for State officers in West Virginia.
II we do not vote for Cleveland this time
il will be the last election in free West
Virginia that we shall ever see: IL will be
the only ono in the United States. The
Republican party is responsible for the
pauper labor OF the United States. The
election of Harrison means a monarchial
government like Russia. But l be-
lieVe in true and Just God,
who holds the destinies of nations in
his hand. He has heard the cries Of his
oppressed people in the grand country that
we call the United States. We are more
oppressed than the children Of Israel were
in Egypt in the days of King Pharaoh.
He has heard our cries and the Moses that
shall deliver US is Grover Cleveland. Har-
risOn aud his band have about as much
love for their country as the conspirator
Catalina had for the Roman Empire. The
poor farmer has been badly duped by the
CRY of protection AS Gen. Golf said in
one Of his speeches in Wellsburg, vote for
BENJAMIN Harrison and receive forty
cents per pound for your wool, for Grover
Cleveland and twenty cents per pound
But have the prophecies Of the great idol
of protection palmed out. Harrison was
elected, the farmers instead of receiving
forty cents per pound got from twenty to
twenty-three cents per pound, under
Cleveland from tbirty-three 10 thirtT-tive
cents per pound. Why do the these pro-
tectiOuists sell American goods TO England
cheaper than to US Americans3 For ex-
ample you can buy a Singer sewing ma
chine for about half in England. The
same with ploughs. So every thing the
farmer buys. Let US all vote
and all viii be right In conclusion, let
every coal miner vote the Democratic
ticket In opposition to such men as Elkins,
Atkinson 4 Co, who are flooding our
State with poor. ignorant negroes. Trust
ing TO your honesty, expect 10 hear the
rood news on the eve of November S that
hose CatalineS are a thing of the past In
West Virginia Laboring men, recollect
hat IS per cent. OF the labor IL the United
States is pauper, the offspring Of protec-
ion. Let US love and admire the motto OF
West Virginia MOntGni Semper Ltbert
translated means, MOUntaineers are al
WAYS freemen. Farmers, De not deceived
my longer.
