number of democratic newspapers

to close their establishments for
political effect. Governor Boise,

said it was done to inJure the dem

American manufacturers republi

are not) why do democratic manu-

that the authors of such silly

cost of such procedure on the
part of manufacturers. Take. for
Instance, an institution with a
capital stock of 100000 that is

per cent. Each month that such
an institution remains closed there
is a dead loss of $2,5OO-rather an
