WASHINGTON, Oct. 24.-Infor1natio
received here points to certain Republif
an victory. This information Indicate
that the people are making carefu
study OF the situation and alternative
9 offered by the two parties and tha;
platforms.
olhce this is being done there can b
httle doubt as to the result
Ihe business men are thinking IL over
= large proportion Of them have estab
nshed AID bnilt UP their business unde,
lhe present protective system. Theaver
aye business man Of today has estab
llshed his business since the protective
system was adopted thirty years ayo
lhose who inherited Il business pst.1 i.
llshed prior to that time have ala1tad #
10 the protective system of the last
thlffy years Hence every business man
who Knows that tie election Of C,lnva-
'alla means a Democratic house. senatp
stlld presidency sees that q general
cnahge III the system Of tile cond71ct of
tne government would change the con
dltlons under which he has had business
I prosperity, ana ut the same time So H.
/ settle Inc general business conditions as
! 70 render investments unsafe, and cari-
1allsts unwilling to enter upon business
enterprises.
me manufacturers are seeing that
thelr industries have wonterful}y deye1-
oped; that the balance Of trade )as boan
S'oo,uUo,OCO III favor of this country in
the past ten years, While in the sa,,n
time it has been $500. coo 900 asainst
free trade Great Britain. Hence t,,ev
prefer TO retain a system under which
ther individual business and our na-
tlonal commerce have both been nrns-
porous.
Their employees are seeing that I'll,
rates OF wages in protected United
States are double those paid in free
trade England, and that employment is
more certain here than in countries NOT
having q protective system. Hence they
VIII vote with the Republican party.
Inc farmers are remembering that
PRESIDENT Har1'lsons administration has.
by us energetic efforts in their behalf
increased foreign markets for their
products immensely. Not only has the
vigorous work of this administration
caused reopenlng Of markets for our
meats, but through reciprocity our other
farm products have been given ;.dvan-
5ages abroad, and the foreign sale of all
agricultural products has been increased
S2Io, 900 900 Hence the farmers will
vote with the Republicans.
Merchants and financial men racoy-
1lze the fact that the Democratic party
$ pledged to substitute for the national
system rnltaSed and unguaran
eed issues OF state bank currency, which
Vas SO disastrous to all business inter
sts before the war. Hence they vii,
upport the Republican candidates.
1he people OF the great west are re-
nembering that Mr.. Cleveland's admin
strltlon OF the land Office devoted its
hlet energies to preventing people from
ptalh1hg homes and homesteals, in
tead OF aiding them, as this admins
ration has done. Clcvcland's commits
toner's OF the land Office charged that 40
er cent. of the homestead entries were
faudulent; that so per cent of the tim
ef culture entries were fraudulent. and
lat lCO per cent. of the pre- -e,nption
les We're fraudulent. [ts11spentlel hun
reds OF thousands of claims for homes !
nd Went out OF office leaving 950.953
ltrles for homes unacted upon. Presi-
7nt Rarrlsons administration has j
cared up all Of these ana acted upon !,
Others which have come in the mean
NE. The people Of the west, remem- Y
ring these things, will vote with the
epublicans. v
The Old soldiers remember that Pres
ent Cleveland refused his signature to +
4 pension bills, While all the presi-
nts who had preceded him had only
ken this action upon five bills. They II
member that Clevclands administra- tt
N elected thousands OF soldiers from II
ice and showed its lack Of sympathy u
them at every step. Hence they will u
te with the Republicans. CT
The foreign born citizens compare al
alr condition i'll this country with that 81
Tree trade countries, and are unwiIl- On
TO exchange the system which has Of
,en them prosperity here for the sys- TO
u Whlch pays starvation wages abroad CO CO
l Which they left their former homes ~, ~,
escape. Hence they will vote with sp
Republicans gil
ne colored voters remember that it ~ ~
to the Republican party that they we we
their present free and prosperous ho
dltlon, and that a large share of the up
party is conducting the Tn gn
