Albany Argus.
Harrison and Piatt have had a
long talk. and Piatt Is now for the
ticket, the whole ticket and nothing
but the ticket. From this we infer
that Mr.. Harrison must have taken his
pen i'll hand and put it in writing.-St.
Louis Republic.
Vice Presidential Candidate Reid
sl1ips and plays, makes pretty speeches
hitier and Won, travels about in private
ears and pleasant company. bnt as the
canDaig progresses he Will be adnon-
isl.ed quietly bat pointedly by the peo-
pie who made him the nominee that he
was selected for a specific purpose, and
that committeeman Ill need OF money
are not going 90 overlook the fact. The
suggestion to Mr.. Mills son-in-law will
be curt and authoritative: Come
iowu"'-Chicago Times.
when Benjamin Harrison was
first nominated for the presidency ne
declared himself ''an s!nlearned ccono-
mist" In preparing hi, formal accept
ance of a second nomination for the
same Office he has assumed that the
people are equally as ignorant Of eco
nome questions. Holding closely to
the editorial instructions of his party
press ne has degraded his high office by
grossly unfair statements Of issues fair
" presented by those who challenge
his administration and the policy of his
party.-Chicago Times.
THE extraordinary length of
President Harrison's letter formally ac-
cepting the nomination for re Gle ction
tended him by the national republican
convention last June would of itself be
sufficient to create the impression that
the president believes either that his
cause is Il weak one requiring specious
argument to support it, or that his
party's record is so bad as to need the
best defense which its chosen leader
can make. A perusal of the remark
able document will only serve to
strengthen this impression. &C hicago

The pretty story of NJ. Steven
son .grinding down" Illinois miners
with his Oppressive hand turns out to
be one of the stupidest falseho0ds that
the republican press has manufactured
for the campaign. A thorough investi-
cation has shown that Mr.. Stevenson
has not oppressed anyone, and that he
has always been a conscientious en-
ployer. The story-tellers seem to have
forgotten the spontaneous tribute
which Mr.. Stevenson miners them
selves paid to his fair treatment and
soon after his nomination.

If our national commerce were
not fettered by McKinleyism our west
ern products of the farm would be ex-
for the European products of
the shop to an almost unlimited extent.
The same tariff which increases the
cost of living to the people of these ex-
porting states impairs and limits the
for their surplus products, and
they are, therefore, doubly wronged.
They lose the exchange value of their
products and are forced to accept the
gold value i'll greatly restricted mar
kets. They sell their products at the
auction price, but are compelled to
purchase their manufactures at the
price.-Omaha World Herald.
