For the People to Decide.
The Democratic party has found no place In
its platform for any reference to this subject,
and has shown its hostility to the general pol
icy by refusing to expend an appropriation
made during the last administration for ocean
mail contracts with American lines. The patri-
otto people, the workmen in our shops, the cap
italists seeking new enterpris s, must decide
whether the great ships owned by Americans
which have sought American registry shall
again humbly ask place in the English naval
reserve; the great ships now on the designers
tables go to foreign shops for construction and
the United States lose the now Frightening
opportunity of recovering a place common

structors and the courage of its sailors in the
carrying trade of all the seas.

One Purpose of the Present Law-Some
Tin-Plate History.
Some special effects of the act should be no.
ticed. II was courageous attempt to rid our
people Of long maintained foreign monopo-
silk plush, linens, lace, etc. Once or twice in
our history the production of tin plate had
been attempted and the prices obtained by the
Welsh makers would have enabled our makers
to produce il al profit. But the Welsh max
ers at once cut prices to point that drove the
American beginner out of the business, and,
when this was accomplished, again made their
own prices. A correspondent OF the Industrial
World, the official organ of the Welsh tin plate
workers, published at Swansea, in the issue of
June 10, 1892, advises n new trial of these
methods. He says: DO not be deceived.
The victory of the Republicans at the polls
means the retention of the Mckinley bill, and
means the rapidly accruing loss Of ~ per cent.
of the export american trade.
Half Pay and No Profits Proposed.
"Had there been no Democratic victory In
1890 the spread of the tin plate manufacture in
the United States would have been both rapid
and bona fde. IL is not yet too late to do
something TO reduce the prize of plates. Put
them down TO lis per box OF l. G.. 1lx2s, full
weight basis. Let the worltmen take half pay
for a few months and then turn out more.
Then let the masters forego profits for the
same time"
And again that paper says: ut Is clearly the
interest of both employer and workmen to pro-
ducc tin plates, tariff or no tariff at price
that will drive all competitors from the field"

producers and tho Democratic party for its de-
struction will not succeed
Development of the Industry.
The official returns to the treasury depart
ment OF the production of tin and terne plates
In the United States during the last fiscal year,
show a total production of 13,2i0S;U pounds,
anu comparison of the first quarter, $685.

shows the rapid development of the industry.
over 5,OOWO pounds during the last quarter
were made from American black plates, the
remainder from foreign plates. Mr.. Aver,
the treasury agent in charge, estimates, as the
result OF careful inquiry, that the production
OF the current year will be 1O0,0O00OO pounds,
and that by the end of the year our production
Will be at the rate of 2OO, 100000 pounds per
mum.
Reference to Pearl Buttons.
Another industry that has been practically
created by the Mckinley bill is the making Of
pearl buttons. Few articles coming to us from
abroad were so distinctly the product of starv-
alton wages. But without unduly extending
this letter, l cannot follow in detail the infiu-
ences OF the tariff law of 1890 1t has trans
planted several important industries and es-
tablished them here and has revived or en-
larged all others. The act gives to the miners
protection against foreign silver bearing lead
ores, the free introduction of which threatend
the great mining industries of the Rocky
Mountain states, and to the wool growers pro-
lection FOR their feeces and fiocks, which has
saved them from further and disastrous de-
cline.
The house Of representatives at its last ses-
sion, passed bills placing these ores and wool
upon the free list. The people Of the west well
know how destructive to their prosperity these
measures would be. This tariff law has given
IN thnn f,H0 pf Ann
men and women, and will each year give en-
ployment to increasing thousands. It's repeal
would throw thousands out of employment and
give work to others only at reduced wages.

Bl-METALLISM DISCUSSED.
Believes in silver and Gold Dollars of
Equal Value.

The resolution of the convention in favor of BIZ
metallism declares think, the true and nee
essary conditions of a movement that has
upon these lines my cordial adherence and
support am thoroughly convinced that tho
free coinage of silver at such a ratio to gold as
will maintain the equality in the commercial
uses of the two coined dollars. would conduce
TO the prosperity Of all the great producing
and commercial nations of the world. The one
essential condition is that these dollars shall
have and retain an equal acceptability and
value in all commercial transactions.
The General Principle Stated.
They are not only medium of exchange,
but measure of values, and when two unequal
measures are cllled in law by the same name
commerce is unsettled and confused and the
unwary and ignorant are cheated. Dollars of
unequal commercial value will not circulate
together Tn" better dollar Is withdrawn and
becomes mer nsndise. The true interest of all
our people, and especially of the farmers and
working people who cannot closely observe
the money market, is that every dollar, paper
or coin, issued or authorized by the govern .
ment shall at all times and in all its uses be
the exact equivalent, not only in debt paying,
but in purchasing power, of any other dollar.

REFORM ELECTION METHODS.
Some Remarks on Ballot Box Stufing
and Gerrymandering.

Some Remarks on Ballot Box Stufing
and Gerrymandering.
In my last annual message to congress said
must yet entertain the idea that it is possi-
bic to secure a calm, patriotic consideration Of
such constitutional or statutory changes as
may be necessary to secure the choice of the
officers Of the government to tho people by
fair apportion.nents and free elections. l be-
lieve IL would be possible to constitute q COM
mission, non-pprtsan in its membership and
composed of patriotic, wise and impartial men,
to whom a consideration Of the questions Of
the evils connected with our election system
and methods might be committed with a good
prospect OF securing unanimity in some plan
for removing or mitigating those evils.
The constitution would permit the selection
of the commission to be vested In the supreme
court, IL that method would give the best
guaranty of impartiality. This commission
should be charged with the duty of inquirng
into the whole subject of the law of elections
as related to the choice Of officers of the ma
tional government with q view to securing to
every elector free and unmolestcd exercise
of the suffrage and as near an approach to
an equality of value in each ballot cast as is
attainabe. The demand that the limitations
of suffrage shall be found IN the law and there
only is q just demand and no just man should
resent or resist 1t.
Reference to Alabama.
It seemed to me that an appeal to our people
to consider the justice of adjusting our legis-
lation upon absolutely fair nonpartisan lines
might find some effective response. Many
times have had occasion to say that laws and
election methods designated to give unfair adj
vantages to the party making them would
some time be used to perpetuate In power q
faction of a party against the will of the
majority of the people. or this we seem to
have an illustration in the recent state election
in Alabama There was no Republican ticket
In the field The contest was between white
Democrats.

No Necessity for Confusion in Regard to
the Rival Principles.
The declaration of the platform in favor Of
"the American doctrine Of protection" meets
my most hearty approval. The convention
did not adopt a schedule, but principle that
Is TO control all tariff schedules. There may
be differences Of opinion among protectionists
as to the rate upon particular articles neces-

correctly, has been made to appear TO be, be-

Strange Freak of Affection ON the Farm
of Abraham Kelley.
A singular case Of animal attachment
recently occurred on the farm of Abra-
ham Kelley. on the river road about
three and a-half miles southeast of this

Mr. Kelley had blac, and.wh cat.
which gave birth to seven kittens.
These she nursed until they were old
enough tn have their eyes open, or about
nine days. Then she forsooS them.
at that time hen was sitting. She
noticed the neglected kittens, and. for
salSing her eggs, took the foundlings
under her care. She "hovered" the
kittens the same as she would have done
her chicks, and they answered her
"cluck' as obediontly as small chickens
would have done They would follow
her all around the banyard and at
night slept under her wings
The men on the farm built n little
trough. This was filed with sweet
milk at intervals, and the hen always
had her strange brood there in time for
meals. The hen continued TO nurse the
kittens until they were about three
months old and able TO take care of
| themselves. Then they deserted her,
/ apparently much TO her grief
Another strange thing on this farm is
a cat with tail very much resembling
