The Democratic party is seriously
disturbed because Of the report of La
Dor Commissioner Peck of New York
in regard to the effect of the Mckinley
bill upon wages and production. His
statistics are taken from over 5000
substantial business firms in New York
and cover the year before the McKin-
ley bill went into effect, and the year
after and show net increase in wages of
So, 6,377,925 and in production of s31, :
315, ,130. The Democrats have tried
to make out that Mr.. Peck is tool of
Hill, and his report got up to injure
Cleveland but as he was appointed by
Mr.. Cleveland himself, this theory is
as baseless as any other that they could
bring forward. The figures speak for
themselves, and the frantic efforts Of
the free traders to explain them away
is amusing. As Lincoln said, "1ou
can fool some of the people all Of the
time, and all Of the people some of the
time, but you can't fool all of the peo-
pie all of the time.' The American
people are not going to be fooled by
Democratic sophistry in face Of the
facts that under the Mckinley tariff
wages are higher and living cheaper
for the common people than in any
free trade country, or ever before in
the history of this country.

Not SD Hnndsome. Rnt Wiser.

The republican party of Vermont re-
sembles the man that was kicked by a
mule, is not as handsome as 1t was be-
fore election, but it knows more. 1t
has learned that the experiment of nom
mating weak candidate for the head
of its ticket in a presidential year is a
disastrous failure, and also that it is
better to wait until after election before
talking about tremendous majorities
under such circumstances. And yet it
is hardly true to say that the party has
ascertained these facts. The party as
whole was aware of what would
happensbut some of those who make
the most noise in public print and 9TH
erwheres didn't seem to sense the situ-
alton, or, if they did, acted senseless-
ly.
The truth is, Notwithstanding the
figures show greatly diminished re-
publican majority as compared with
that of four years ago, that there are
just as many republicans within our
borders now as then and that they be-
lieve just as strongly in republican
principles they simply wouldn't be
driven into voting for someone whom
majority of the plain men among them
didn't want. Nor was there lack of eff
fort to get ont the vote. The state
committee carried on its work system
atically and well but even this would
not arouse the voters.
The outcome of the election would
be of no consequence whatever were it
not that republicans OF other and closer
states look to Vermont to set the pace
and that they win be discouraged and
the democrats correspondingly elated
over it. The former will not be ap-
praised of the purely local reasons of
the vote and the latter would not learn
and tell them if they could so an en-
tirely erroneous impression will 90

cause and the help of the democratic.

So far as the republican vote is con-

there was no special incitement to poll
