Under the Mckinley tariff, the
highest tariff ever known, wool is
selling at Is to Is cents. 1t may be
well to remind the farmers that un-
der this beneficent law they were
promised 40 to so cents for their
wool and wonderful "home market
for everything else they could pro-
duce. Under this law wages have
steadily declined, strikes have in
creased, the poor have been made
poorer, distress has become general,
no one but the highly protected tar
if barons have prospered. These
are facts known to every one, We.
there are republican editors idiotic
and untruthful enough to charge all
the present woes of humanity tc
these democratic times" The PEG.
pie know where the blame should
rest.

The Cost of the strike.

While the stubborn conflict be-
tween coal strikers and operators
goes on, the soft coal miners are los
ing every day in wages over 800, 900.
President Mcbride himself claims
that there are in the country 1000
idle miners. Since the strike began,
the loss in wages is estimated
at 100000. The loss in output is
1850, 900 tons, the value of which at
the places Of consumption would be
not far from 100000 To this
must be added the loss of earnings
by the railroads, which in many cas-
es has caused large reductions to the
forces of trainmen. Many large
manufacturing places are being clos
ed on account of the lack of fuel, and
the employees in these factories and
mills are losing their wages also. In
round numbers the total loss so far
has probably exceeded 100000.
Democrats VIII Carry West Virginia.
The Philippi Plaindealer is evil
IDENTIFY confident of a Democratic
victory at the polls this fall, to judge
from the following;
The Democratic mass meeting on
Tuesday was one of the largest held
in this county, and the responses in
applause to the ''from the shoulder
hits" of ex- Governor Wilson indi-
cate that our people are not slumber-
ing or deceived by Republican YER
sions of the condition of affairs. The
ex Governor, who always enthuses
our people, was in prime condition
to lay bare the misrule of the Repub
lican party while in power for more
than thirty years, and the cause of
the constant concentration of wealth
in the hands of the few, draining
the hard earned substance of the
many. His illustrations were plain,
and easily understood, and the blind
eyes of many were opened, if such is
possible. He spoke for more than
two hours to a crowded house, stand
ing room being at a discount. Gov
ernor Wilson is success on the po-
litical rostrum and will make a can
vass of this State that will arouse
the Democracy to do its full duty,
and when the votes are counted in
November it will be found that as
usual majority are for Democracy
and tariff reform.

For several days S. L. Baxter has

forming an abortion on Miss Colum-

A good many republicans are try
ing to charge their sins of omission
and commission to the democrats
but it won't work. No one can be
fooled with the idiotic cry of "these
democratic times 60" Every think
ing man knows that these times are
the direct result of republican legis-
lation. The foreshadowing of these
times was what covered the republi-
can party with an avalanche in 1892.

Republican confidence has not yet
abated any of its remarkable idiocy.
Without increase from the Demo
cratic party, the Republicans have
no show whatever Of winning in
West Virginia. Things may look a
trifie shaky in Ohio county, and nc
wonder, with a few Democratic pro
tectionists raising disturbance and
the men who are out Of work charg-
ing it up against the Democratic
party. Anything sillier as an argu.
ment, than that the hard times arc
caused by Democratic laws, which
have never been passed, we defy his
tory to produce. The fact is, the
hard times are caused by Republi
can laws, which the Democrats have
failed to repeal Wstzel Democrat
