MR. uusBER ON THE SHERMAN SILVER
LAW.

Is nusber's shop whistles, The Massil-
lonian airs itself In this fashion:
WThere are about 200 men working at
the Dueber works, but the whistles
never blow. This Is done for politioai
effect"
A Herald representative showed Mr..
Dneber the duotation and asked him
about IL. "Ihat Is too silly for any
nse.n said he, "If the Democrats can
take in such stuff as that and give II
anv weight they must be very dumb.
WHY IL isn't necessary to blow the
whistles now. There is so little busi-
ness and SO little work that the men
come I'm here easy enough without
hIowinc the whistles. We don't have
to call Them. they come themselves"
Mr.. Dueber said the men now work
inc we're only employed three days
weak He thought perhaps things
wonld brighten up little IL the Senate
would only quit their foolishness ana
mass the repeal bill, and he said,the men
In his shop had now lost S32O,OOO In
wages since the hard times came on
Canton Sunday Herald.
COMMENTS BY NEws-DEMooRAT.
tits true that some complaints have
heen made because Mr.. Dueber does not
blow his whistle; but the NEws-DEMo-
opAT has made no complaint. we
merely mentioned the fact such COM
nlaints are made. Mr.. Dueber has a
private business enterprise and owns
his own whistle; and he can blow IL OF
not. as he sees fit. 1t is not the busi-
ness of the public to regulate.
We COPY Mr.. Duebers interview gu
fire. as IL appeared In the sunday
Herald, in order to make some oDserva-
tions, which we regard as entirely peru
Mr' Dueber thinks business. would
brighten up IL the Senate would quit
their foolishness and repeal the Sher-
man silver law. Mr.. Dueber intlmates
that If this law should be repealed
business would brighten up, ana no
Sonbt Mr.. Dueber would commence
operating his extensive plant on 1ull
time and with full force.
Now let us proceed to observe:
lat. The Sherman silver bullion law
was enacted as a caucus measure OF the
Renublican party. 1t was voted Tor oy
the solid Republican vote OF potn
honses of Congress, and voted against
nv the solid Democratic vote OF poth
houses. 1t was approved by hepuph-
' shortly after its passage, the Hon.
VIM. Mckinley, conceded 10 Dc lhe
greatest man in the Republican party,
west of Tom Reed and Chauncey De
new. made a very able financial speech
| In Massillon, Ohio, in which he sald:
"What have we donep we nave
nassed The silver bill-the best silver
bill that was ever put upon our statute
hooks. What does it do2 1t utillzes
every ounce, every pepnyweight OF the
silver product of the United States,
| I'be government buys 4,50O,OOO ounces
every thirty days, and issues its treas-
ury notes for that sum, and makes them
redeemable In gold or silver, and makes
them receivable for debt, public ahd
nrivate. absolutely legal tender and
puts in circulation a little more than
two millions every thirty days, and In
addition to what is put into circulation
nnder the old law, the two millions OF
coinage a month. Then we have made
this silver as good as gold, and silver
today is nearer on an equality with
gold than it has been for eighteen
Years; and why shouldn't they be SIDE
by side in the business OF this great
country ?" - .,uou
bill. that has aided to stop
Mr. Dueber's factory, command silence
of his great factory whistle and throw a
large number of Mr.. Dueber's excellent
woPkmen and worthy citizens out OF
work. causing them to lose already,
las Mr., Dueber states) $4,000. What
should Mr.. Dueber do noWE he
should vote against this man, Mckln-
lev, who has brought all this ruin.
Furthermore, every laborer In the
factory should vote against Mckinley.
Every laboring man owes it to his fam.
| ilv to vote against the man whose Dill
has already cost the Dueber Watch
| Workers S320,O00 in wages lost.
Remember it Is not Democrat max
| ing this estimate. 1t comes direct
from Mr.. Dueber, who is not In the
habit of making reckless statements.
Do not fail to remember this on elec,
tion day. Nov. 7. If any laboring man
| in this city doubts that Senator John
| Sherman engineered this silver law
| through the Senate, and VIM. Mckinley
| (then a leader in the house, through
| the House of Representatives, come to
this office and see the proof oft.
But you do not want proof. Read
the extracts from McKinley's speech
made in this county in the October OF
| 1890, in his campaign for Congress.
Mr.. Dueber and every skilled Work
man in his great factory ought to vote
| for Neal for Governor, -.
Mr. Dueber comedies in hi
interview that the Sherman sill
yer law Is responsible TO-
| the industrial distress, and why not re
| buke and punish the man and the part,
responsible for all this business
distress and suffering among th'
We are in dead earnest about thi
matter.
Let every watch maker In Canton,
Vote for Larry Neal and the who'll
Democratic ticket.
