Real Cause. Of the Panic.

While Mr.. Cleveland s cry Of warning
10 foreign investors here has contributed
to bring us to u present sorry plight.
the overshadowing and all controlling
reason for our condition is to be found In
the threat Of the Democratic party to
destroy our present industrial system
by absolutely destroying the protective
features of our revenue system, and in
its place establish a system designed
simply and solely for revenue. This
threat is the real cause of all our trou-
BILE. But for it tho question of silver
would not have ruffled this nation moro
than a breeze of summer disturbs the.
placid waters OF some sheltered brook.
The tariff is the issue in this nation to
day and will continue to be until we
have established beyond question ono
system or the other-the protection"
or 1.-THE tariff for revenue only" system.

Nation.

A Hard Winter Before the workers of the
Nation. /
General Hastings Of Pennsylvania. In
. speech ut Philadelphia, has tersely
summed mp the situation in the country.
The condition Of the Pennsylvania farm
er and workingman rs he presents it Is
not overdrawn. and it will be the condi-
ton of the New York farmer and worker
before q year rolls round unless the peo-
pie call halt at the ballot box. He says:
People are now in want, with a hard
winter and poverty staring them in tho
face. and who car say that al this is not
due to Democracy and the Democratic
congress? ;
1.-THE country IL in such q condition
now that men turn to each other wits
blsnched faces and ask how long their
employment will last. Mills are closing
svery day. The party in power at Wash
ington 10 responsible for the existing con-
dition Of Affairs. The farmer is feeling
the stress Of financial and political
weather ns well as the artisan and pro-
fessionl man. and through the length
and breadth of Dur beautiful state one
hears the cry for relief. But the Demo
cratic party remains inactive and unre-
sponsive to the public demand.
THE Democrats repudiated protection
at Chicago and said they would do bet
ter things. They have done nothing but
cause a a Of destruction and poverty
70 sweep the land. They painted tariff
reform in such glowing colors that tho
people thought they would like change.
They got 1t, but at what q cost
During the 25 years the Republican
party ran the government wages in
creased from 10 to 80 per cent. and the
people prospered and saved money. Sat-
listed with affairs, u foreign neighbors
were glad to deal with us and take our
money, but as soon as the Democrats
gained power they began to question our
stability and wonder If silver was t be
the same rs before.
THE people are frightened. Manu-
facturers are at their wits ends. II the
manufacturers had the assurance that
the tariff would not be tinkered with for
10 years and a promise that no change
would be made in the currency of the
nation. all the mills in the country
would begin work inside of two weeks"

gave her job, and the next day she
was at her work and she made the
shingles fly. There were few of the
old hands who could pack shingles
with her. She was steady and meth
odical, having little to say to any Of
her male associates beside what was
necessary for her work, and she was
liG1d and respected accordingly. A
few days ago there was genuine re-
greet at the mill when it was found
that she had quit. 1t soon transpired
that she had been appointed school
teacher at school not far away. She
was well educated young woman,
and not in necessitous circumstances,
but she preferred to spend her vaca-
