Second-Because il artisan

Third-How can You vote for 6Ou-
bic action presidential combination like
Cleveland and Stevenson? The team
does not pull together. One is blowing
in the political furrow Of tariff reform.
civil service and gold. while the other is
pulling the old Democratic cart in the
direction of free silver and spoils. Be-
tween them you do not know where you
will fetch up.
Fourth-Because with his free trade
knife he Is trying to kill the goose OF
protection that has laid the golden egg
of prosperity for the United States.
Fifth-If Mr.. Clevelands soldier SUBJ

You could as patriot find several good
and sufficient reasons for voting for him;
but what reason can you adduce for
voting for the man who, in youth and
vigor and unlike Harrison, did not have
the courage TO go to the front? Mr..
Cleveland never heard shot fired in
anger. but he vetoed more old soldier
pension bills than any president from
Washington down. That is his great
war record. He slaughtered veterans
