Five years ago shoPs made FROM II
cost s5 per pair and the leather cost
" cents per SQUARE foot. To-day Blu
menihale employ 800 men in this city
and glazed kid Is made here and clss-
where and shoes soil for 50 per pair
and the leather is better. Thus the
consumer saves 81 OH pair OF shoes.
What applies to this applies to calf
skin and other kinds OF leather. Not
a woman and not moro than half the
men wear shoes made OF bull0ck's
hide.
Prior to the passage of the Mckinley
bill there was not hosiery factory In
this city, but now there are several
one OF which furnishes employment
for eighty women. some of whom earn
us high us ton dollars u week. The
stockings made In these establish
ments are sold TO job0ers at prices
which enabled them to be retailed at
10 cents pair.
Go to the dry goods store and you
can buy Canton flannel more than a
yard wide at cents per yard. You
can buy unbleached muslin at cents
per yard and bleached muslin at 8
cents. Take callcoes. Better calico
than ever Queen Elizabeth wore can be
bought for cents yard. The duty

being added. IL Is nonsense. Here Is
d piece OF cloth that Is all wool You
can not find a thread that is not wool.
This sells at 37ks cents per yard.

buy the best sugar made for cents

nine hours. With one days work he
can buy eighty ono yards OF this mus

He said that he had no respect for
Senator Gray's Democracy. as he con-
tends that each day tho tariff made the
struggle OF life harder. A few years
ago no tile was made Ia this country,
and 1t could not be bought for less
than 81 a foot but now this industry
furnishes employment TO 5000 men
and the price Is 80 cents foot.
Mr.. Bayard said ut Newark that he
was convinced that a great danger
threatened the government from I'M
just taxation. Mr.. Rayard argued on
theory and not on fact The time
never existed whom so much could be
bought for the money. Take the viii.
mington Savings Fund Society. II has
1860 depositors and ever ~, S27. 1886 In
deposits Its rules forbid the deposit
OF more than $50 per month, SO that 1t

the reduction In interest from to 4
per cent. deposits have Increased since

Is there anyone who wants this con-
ditlon OF things changed? YET the
Democratic platform denOuuces pro-
lection, and their speakers have said
the same thing In this State. The Col
onel then turned his attention to the
currency, and said:
A national bank buys $4,000 bonds
of the United States and deposits them
with the Treasury Department OF the
omitted States and secures in return
al, 900 IN notes with which to do busi
ness. Tha notes are protected by
bonds and arc as good as gold. The
Democrats say that bonds uf the STATE
are Just us goad aud Stats banks cat
insure their issue as we'll. Mississip
pi repudiated its publij debt, Virginia
refuses to pay interest. Her bonds
are worth but $50 for 500 bond. VIVA

, The colonel then alluded to Cover
nor Reynolds by reading the lettel
which the governor hud written to Mr.
Dickey. The governor is clothed with
more power than any governor In tn,
country. He appoints all the judges
, He appoints the Encouragement anc

to appoint the hoard OF election.
In speaking OF the letter he remark
3 ed that he had heard OF people wht
Q had tried to bribe an oificiai, but sci

!. Il has been understood that there ar,
. fraudulent assessment lists In TIN

by Dickey is presented and the super
visofs wish to examine 1t they are tolt
3 by such high authority AZ Senator

before they will show them. There Il
