THE Democrat wants to know ii
The REPUBLICAN won t contribute
part of its annual levy to the maple
sugar producers of Garrett county
IN order to help them out of the
hole they were put into by the Will
son bill. The REPUBLICAN always
was generous and it is willing to
contribute.
The REPUBLICAN, i'll the interest
Of the taxpayers of Garrett county,
submitted a proposition to print the
ballots for $500, and if we mistake
not the exorbitant bill which was
put in last spring for doing that
work was cut down by the County
Commissioners 1912. We believe
this saving was effected by our
offer to do the work at the figure
we have named. In this way we
have contributed and we propose to
continue our contributions by saw
ing the people money whenever we
find the opposition press overcharg-
ing them.

Communicated.

To the Editor ofThe Republican.
Before another issue of HE RE-
PUBLICAN the great battle of 1894
shall have been fought and the ques-
ton Of momentous importance-the
question which means so much to
the American people, will be decid-
ed for two more years.
There has been one thing which
we caunot mistake: we have had an
''obiect lesson" and have had q
practical experience of what De-
mocracy means. Shall we heed the
lesson or let partisan spirit and
party prejudice control us or shall
we rise above party and vote for
country and the principle Of Pro
lection to home industry?
We have in this Congressional
District two candidates-the one,
Mr.. Williams, representing the
principle Of a party which has al
ways been opposed to the best in
terests Of the American workmen;
the other, Mr.. Wellington, carry
ing the banner Of that party which
has always stood for all that was
best for the upbuilding and pros
perlty Of our common country.
In former campaigns our friends
the enemy have told US that they
were not in favor of Free Trade,
but in this campaign the Democ-
racy has a candidate whose battle
cry is "down with Protection. "
We have already seen and felt the
effects of that policy which during
Cleyeland's present administration
has cost us more than the civil war.
Farmers of Garrett county, YOU
have been more fortunate than some
of the people Of our land, but De-
mocracy has brought down the
price of your wool ten cents a
pound and when politicians tell you
that the price of wool is advancing
they lie and they know 1t. The
lambs that sold readily two years
ago for 81 head are to-day a drug

county, State and Nation which
the results of the impending strug-
gle will bring to them. Republl-
cans OF Garrett county, work until
the polls close on the night of the
election, You have everything to
gain by the effort you put forth.
Defeat would mean continuance
of hard times, unemployment Of
labor, low wages and scant living.
Victory means the opposite. Vic
tory is not only for you and her
fruits are not to be tasted alone by
you but by your Democratic neigh
Dor as well.
In these last days of the campaign
devote your energies to enlightening
them upon these vital questions
which affect us all. Work, and
victory is ours. Work, and George
L. Wellington is triumphantly
elected.

ing them.

The REPUBLICAN stands not
only for a bounty on maple sugar,
but for tariff on wool, tariff on
lumber, tariff on coal, Protection
to the farmer, the mechanic, the
Iaborer. upon his produce, and for
America.
We are interested in a bounty on
maple sugar in Garrett county. We
want to see the farmers of Garrett
county prosperous and if the receD-
ton of two cents per pound upon
their sugar product will add to
their prosperity, and which they
know it does, we want to raise our
voice against the robbery which the
nefarious Wilson bill has practiced
upon them.
We have thus stated our position
upon this question and all others
which effect our people IN contra
distinction to the Free Trade policy
ADVOCATED by the puerile Democrat.
OF course we know that the people
Of this county do not pay any at
tentlo1 to its silly yaporings, be-
cause they are not fools. But it is
too late at this stage of the cam
paign to indulge in discussion of
these questions or to pay any atten-
ton to the natural propensitles of
the Democrat for lying, The people
don't believe what it says because
they know better and we must bear
with it because We suppose it is one
of the natural evils which are found
in all well-ordered communities.

After Election, the tx.

Washington Special in Phila. Press.
Judge Lochren, Commissioner of
Pensions, made a most emphatic
denial Of the charges that the work
Of the Pension Bureau was being
manipulated for political purposes.
Secretary Mckee, of the RepubIi-
can Congressional Campaign Com
mittee, when his attention was
called to Judge Lochren's denial,
made the following statement with
out any reservation:
1T cannot be denied that there
were $4,000 notices prepared in
Secretary Hoke Smiths department
to be sent to old soldiers drawing
pensions, asking them to show
cause why their pensions should not
be dropped or reduced. Of this
number So, 900 were to have had
their pensions dropped and $4,000
were to have had their pensions re-
duced. These notices were ready
to be sent to the old soldiers, but
have been withheld until after the
election. AS soon as the votes are
counted on November 6, the pen
sions of veterans will begin to drop,
Notwithstanding Judge Lochren's
denial that there is any effort to
placate the old soldiers vote"
1t is understood that when the
Democratic Campaign Committee
heard Of the notices the managers
were dumfounded and demanded of
Secretary Smith that they be with
held, Smith consented, as he real
lied what damage would be done.

THE issues are made up. The
contest will soon be brought to a
close. BY the time this reaches the
people they will have decided where
to cast their sutfrages. They will
have determined whether the policy
of thiscountry shall be theAmerican
system of Protection or the English
Democratic system of Free Trade.
1t is useless to spend time in argu-
ment. The people know which sys-
tenn is for their interests. Any
man who does not protect his own
interests at the ballot box where he
has the opportunity does not de-
serve the blessings Of free govern
ment. We know what the verdict
of the people of Garrett county Will
be. They will declare by their
ballots that Protection is their
choice and that that system advo-
Gated, upheld and championed by
George L. Wellington is their desire.
Garrett county will give the largest
Republican majority in her history.

A EOOrQoTaOC

The Democrat still sticks to the
theory that wool is advancing in
price and asks US 10 quote the price
Of wool under the "reign Of the
Mckinley BILL" which we are
happy to do.
Under the WiIson-Gorman-Bnce
bill the selling price Of wool has
beep and remains lower than it ever
was before. We have no doubt the
Democrat has great confidence in
the Philadelphia Record.
The Philadelphia Ipquirer has
taken the trouble to consult the
Records files for its wool quotations
covering the period from January,
1894, to October 10, 1894. This
record from the Democratic Record
is interesting and may be the means
Of injecting something into the
brain of the Democrat that will
cause 1t to turn from it's course and
publish the truth for once anyway,

The Fall In Wool Prices

Messrs. d. Loewen & Co., Of st.
Louis, write to the Gl06e-Dem0crat
of that city to say that they see in
Democratic newspaper "that s2me
man in West Virginia sold some
wool at q cents, for which he was
offered Is cents six months ago;
and also, that other parties are very
active in gathering up woods and
holding them for a further rise Of
6 cents to s cents pound"
The comment Of Messrs. Loewen
& Co. on this statement is that
"whoever wrote it either knew
nothing Of what he was talking
about or he deliberately falsified for
political purposes" These dealers
offer to sell to anybody 1000, 900
pounds Of wool at ? cents a pound
less than it was worth six months
ago, and the buyer may take any
kind of wool he wants.
Wool has dropped everywhere ex-
cept in the political departments of
Democratic newspapers and in Dem
ocratic campaign literature gener-
ally. 1t has dropped in the market
reports of the Democratic newspa-
pers, but this makes no impression
on their political departments. 1t
makes an impression on the farmer,
who by this time has discovered that
there is a free trade conspiracy to
trick him into supporting the party
Of free trade.
The farmer cannot be fooled on
this question. If he has wool to sell
all he has to do is to offer it i4- the
market, and he knows very soon
what the market price is. If he
has already sold his wool he can
easily learn what his neighbors are
getting for theirs. No newspaper,
Democratic or Republican, can fix
the price of wool. That is done
between the buyer and the seller,
and neither party to the transaction
can be deceived by any newspaper,
This is what makes so absurd the
Democratic effort to deceive.
1t may be that wool will bring a
better price before the end of this
year or before the end Of next year
or at some other time. The price
depends on variety of conditions.
The fact of interest to-day is that
since the passage of the Wilson
German tariff bill wool has fallen
in price until it has reached the
lowest point of which there is any
record. Democratic tariff legi8la,
ton has done it.

1t appears from the above that
Ohio NX and above-the standard
wool of this region-was quoted IN
Philadelphia January, 1894, at 23
cents a pound. 1t appears further
that in August last the same wool
was quoted in the same market at
10 to 20 cents per pound,
Finally it appears that on Octo-
Der 18th, the quotations had fallen
to IS cents, 5 cents a pound less
than the same Democratic Rec0rC
quoted for the same wool in the
same market less than one year ago
The fact is q sale of this wool was
made in Philadelphia last week a
1G9 cents pound.
1t is idle for the DemOcrat to try
to make it appear that wool ha'
advanced in this country since the
passage of the free wool bill. Not
outstanding the fact that free WOO
was discounted by the trade, WOO
is lower to-day than when the bill
passed, and in making this asser
ton we are borne out by everyone
who has had any wool to sell since
the passage of the German bill.
The Democrat cannot change thu
markets, however it may juggle thu
quotations.

ington.
