HARRISON isn't saying very much
these midsummer days, but is he saw
ing wood?
WoRKING0tEN should not forget that
the Tariff Question is the only real
issue involved in the present campaign.
A vote for Harrison is vote to sustain
Carnegie and Frick.
A FUSION plan is under consideration
by the Democrats and Alliance men in
Minnesota. Such movement would
undoubtedly result in the loss of the
state to the Republicans.
The fact that the Pinkerton men
were hired by the Carnegie company
before the sheriff had been asked to
protect the mills shows the bloodthirsty
disposition of the Carnegie people.
THE great American circus is with
us again today in all its modern glory,
and ye small boy is happy-that is, he
will be if he can crawl under the tent
or carry water for the horses and
thereby earn a pass.
Fl. q. FRICK refuses to tell the inves-
tigatiug committee what it costs to
produce a ton of steel billets. He
refuses because he doesn't want the
public to know the enormous profit his
firm is making out of Republican Pro-
lection.
WHITELAw REID, the Republican
candidate for vice president, lives in a
million dollar house. His paper, the
New York Tribune, defends Carnegie
and Frick in one column and in anoth-
er column importunes the workingmen
to vote for Harrison, Reid and protec-
ton.
CARNEGIE says he saves two mil
Ions a year, and on the other hand his
general manager swore before the con-
gressional committee that unless the
wages of the Homestead men were cut
down the Carnegie firm would be
driven into bankruptcy. One of them
probably the manager-lied most
egregiously.
THE most kindly and cordial feelings
should ever exist between the employer
and the employed. All disagreements
should be settled either by conference
or by arbitration. 1t has been my firm
conviction for years that organization
looking solely to the bettering of the
protection of their rights is necessity
to the wage. e.earners.-Gen. A. L. Ste
venson, Democratic candidate for Vice
President.
The most ridiculous exhibition of
monumental gall that we have noticed
up to the time of going to press today
is the claim made in some of the Re
publican papers that the defeat of the
free silver bill in the house was due to
the Republican party. The negative
vote was polled by 81 Democrats and 60
Republicans. This would indicate to
the ordinary reader that the Democrats
defeated the measure.
The 1st of uly, 1892, has come and
gone and yet tin plate is not produced
in our own country to very large ex-
tent. A small quantity of terne plate
is made and few samples have been
produced of bright tin plate, made Of i'm.

Dealer.
ONE remark that Major Mckinley
made is being widely quoted, and bids
fair to exert as much influence in the
present campaign as did the famous
three RS of the Rev. Burchard. The
Mckinley bill, said the major, in q fit of
blind idolatry and honest qualification,
"is doing it's own talking" In view of
the rapid, direct and palpably evil
effects of the measure, a more appropri-
ate legend for the banners of Democ-
racy could not have been DEVISED

GROVER CLEVELAND grows stronger
in the estimation of the American peo-
pie every day. His greatness never
shone with more brilliancy than In the
dignified and forcible manner in which
he has requested over.zealous friends
not to compel the members of his fam
lily to figure in the campaign by using
their names for organizing purposes.
The highest attributes of patriotism
and the sanctity of the home circle are
ruling ideas in the life of Mr.. Cleve.
