says the people will not turn

That he is one of the common

when he could become a great

that he will yet land in the White

OUR esteemed Democratic
friends had always claimed that
they could do nothing because of
a Republican majority in one
branch OF Congress. They finally
got both branches by an over
whelmirg majority and with a
Democratic President, they are
still a failure. Why should the
people give them another trial /?
What assurance have we that
they have reformed since last

THE Democratic candidates re.
present policy of ruin and dis.
honor, of broken promises and
exploded shams. The program
of "tariffreform" has been proven
to be program of poverty for
the American people, of enrich.
ment for huge trusts and ag.
grardizements for British CAPT.
tahsts. The Sugar Trust mag
mates knew what they were de-
ing when they poured out their
lavish campaign contributions to
elect Grover Cleveland. The
millionaires of the London Cham.
Der Of Commerce knew what they
were doing when they rendered
a magnificent banquet to wrecker
Wilson in recognition of his ser.
vices in tearing down protection
to admit British products to
American markets and add to
the profits of British capital.
The Democratic tariff which
David B. Hills convention in
dorsed so enthusiastically has
been an invaluable ally of all those
interests which are opposed to
the welfare of the people of the
United States. 1t has enriched
the Sugar Trust. 1t is about to
put added millions into the tills
of the millionaries of England.
And every extra dollar that goes
to the Trust, every dollar that
travels across the Atlantic to pay
for goods which were produced
in America under the Mckinley
law is a dollar taken from the
pockets of the people, from the
wages of the workingman, the in

BOB INGERsoLL says it's all
right to commit suicide under
some circumstances. It's a good
thing, he says, when you're tired
of life and have nothing to live
for. Now it seems a better phil.
osophy would be that a man
ought to commit suicide when
he has nothing to live for and
makes other people tired of life.
If he'll amend his philosophy in
that way we'll raise a collection
to send a copy of his suggestions

tors we know.-Grafton Leader.

on die fsih day 's g. February f6s
Importance of these meetings cannot
be over estimated. The territory en-.

Of the Mississippi river.
The object of the congress is to dis.
cuss questions affecting the territory
embraced in the call, that may be the
subject of legislation at Washington.

bounty, tariff, irrigation, arid lands,
public lands, Pacific and Gulf coast

The London Times, commenting up
on the government announcement in
regard to the Indian council bills,
says: I'VE do not suppose that all
hope OF making the Indian govern.
ment's silver policy success has been
abandoned by the initiators, but their
whole scheme appears to be doomed.
1t is more than likely that the minis
will he reopened sooner or later. 1t
is now evident that their policy could
be made effective by an import duty
on silver, but the government, natur-
ally shrank thercfrom because it would
have ruined lndia's export trade. The
Indian government will probably
maintain its present attitude for a
short while longer, but the best
judges are of the opinion that ii will
fail"
1t Is stated in London that the In
dia council can not maintain its mini
mum rate Of lG pence for bills of cx-
change, and it is stated by well-in.
formed bullion brokers that in the las,
two days the council had sold its bills
as low as 10 pence. Rupee paper in
London was demoralized, and on the
10th bar silver dropped one-half penny
to 81 pence an ounce.
