The Morgantown Post in COM
menting upon Col Woods speech in
that town says: THE speaker be-
gan by saying that he proposed in
his remarks to indulge in only facts,
but the audience soon found it was
Misrepresentation" Was it2 Then
why didn'tsome Of you fellows correct
him, because he dared any man in
the house to refute anything he said.
None of you fellows dared attempt
it. A number of the republican
leaders of Morgantown went up to
Academy Hall laboring under the
impression that Col. Wood was q
very small gun and expected to have
fun by questioning him, but after he
began speaking they found he was
an immense gun and loaded to the
muzzle, and consequently our repub-
lican friends stood mute and failed to
open their mouths. 1t is said that
Grant had the nerve 70 hide behind
the stove and shake his fist. Any
republican can take the liberty to
question democratic speaker in
Morgantown and no one will say
him nay. But when a republican
speaker is speaking and a democrat
attempts to correct him, the re-
publican leaders, haze rufiian
handy to collar him. Now that pa

Oh, tin and tearn! almost any one
can make tearn plate. 1t has
been manufactured in America for
years. But tell us please how much
of this 100000 lbs. was pure Amer

Of (which is the mother of the chick

hen that matches it,
Then which is the mother of Amer
lean tin. Wales that furnishes the
black plate, the black tin and the
WEIGH workmen to make it, or Amer
lea where it is Matched?
A man in Wheeling has advertis
ed for three months for q box OF
American tin, all the materials of
the same to be American productive
and made by American workmen.
No one has offered to furnish it al
though he has offered quite premi-
UNI ON the same. Now furnish the
tin or take in your sign of American
tin. Four years ago it WAS wool, and
the republicans had the picture of a
sheep hung over Main street. Now,
bring out your sheep again we want
a peep at that old ram. quote
