FULLY PERSUADED.

The Northield News, which has
posed as an independent sheet, will
ing to see good things in all parties
whenever the latter put them on ex-
hibltion, has come out plainly in adj
vocacy of the republican state ticket,
and also as a defender of that party's
national candidates. The editor an
nounces that although he was reared
a democrat, he prefers the republican
policy of protection rather than the
other fellows tendencies towards
free trade. 1t is pretty safe to say
that great many independent pa
pers and voters will take a similar
stand this fall. The loyal and bust
ness-like character of the Harrison
administration throughout has had
Wholesome effect, and will prove
persuasive to many an independent
mind, and the almost persuaded will
