Your contest will not DO local but no
tional In its Significance.
TIE WAR is JUST BEGUN.
l. happens that your Representative,
Mr.. Wilson, has been charged by his
party with the preparation Of a tariff
bill and has identified his name with
II; therefore we may expect that his
bill and tho eenate bill. to which no
gave his vote, will DO matters OF severe
and close scrutiny by his constituents.
II would DO some comfort II we knew
that we were OF the bottom Of the we'll.
Though Il 10 deep and dark II has been
announced, however, by President
Cleveland and by Mr.. Wilson that this
dostructive war against the industries
OF tho country is TO go on. II your
farmers. miners and merchants like the
