The new dominion. [volume] (Morgantown, W. Va.) 1876-1904, 1892-11-05


ii Cleveland is elected on the sth OF
November il will be the death knell OF
the republican party. II the republican
party fail this time, backed by enc hum
dred and fifty thousand Office holders
all using every effort they ean--and by
all the monopolists and protected man
ufacturers and with ten Millions OF dol
lars contributed by those manufactures,
then they can never hope to elect again.
A republican said to me day or two
ago 1--WE are on the eve Of another civil
war and this time between labor and
capital Ii this is so and it is believed
| by many, then if Harrison should be
elected by the use of money il would
hasten on this war Why2 Because
the manufacturers have contributed
more than ever, and they will demand
a return, and the Mckinley bill will have
to be increased TO compensate them.
A prominent republican leader of this
county admitted to me that they could
not elect Harrison by fair election,
but said he: We have fried ten millions
OF fat out OF the protected manuiac-
turers"-(They have given mp the cry
of protected labor and we have sent
Dave Martin with it to New YorS end he;
will buy New York with Doodle"
He admitted that Martin had no reputa-
ton and would do anything for money.
| This same man frankly admitted that
the intention OF the force bill, was TO
place the southern states in the hands
OF the negroes and put them in all the
offices in that section Another repub-
lican said that the object of the depend
ent pension bill was not to reward the
soldiers for what they did during the
war;" but was simply to buy the sol
diers to vote the republican ticket and
to make the democrats pay half of the
expense for the same" He admitted
that all soldiers that really deserved
pensions could get the same under the
old pension law.
called the attention OF republican
farmer to table in the Morgantown
Iost some time ago in regard 10 the price
of flour, beef &c. in 1857. The Poet
claiming that in that year -four was
$3.50 pr. barrel beef was cts. pr. lib.
He replied that was lie, be did not care
what paper published it, for he sold
wheat in 1857, at rs cts pr. Blu. but sold
wheat in 1859 at $3.50 pr. bu.
He also said that every intelligent man
ought to know that the tariff has no
effect upon the farmers products; it
was supply and foreign demand that
regulated the price Of farmers products.
Another republican said to me. The
tariff is tax and | know the consumer
pays it. / also know that we pay more
tax to the American manufacturer than
we do the government.
| Now in conclusion il you Monongalia
farmers know that the republican leaders
lie to you and try to deceive you, il you
know that the Mckinley bin does not
protect the farmer or the laborer, II you
know that you pay the tariff, and that
protective tariff raises the price OF goods
and thus compels you to pay more for
what you have to buy, then in the name
of God why do you vote the republican
ticket and thus increase your own and
your neighbors living expenses

Quay went to New York, surveyed the
situation, and declared New York was
solid for Cleveland and advised the com
mittee to use their money in buying up
New Jersey, Connecticut and West Vir-
ginia.
