STARK COUNTY.

Democrats of Stark county, one more
word with you The election next Tues
day means much. Victory is in the air.
Let every democrat in Stark county help
along in the cause. 1t is the sacred duty
of every democrat to help redeem Stark
county. Stark county will surely go
democratic if every democrat goes to the
polls. This is all that is necessary. Get
out the vote and victory will be ours.
The republicans are counting on demo.
Gratis staying at home. Will any demo
crat do this? We do not believe he will.
Our noble candidate for governor,
James +. Campbell, deserves the vote Of
every man. He is poor, but he is max
ing grand campaign. Reward him by
voting. Let old Stark show up well in
the democratic column.

COXEY.

Jacob S. Ccxey, the popuIist candidate
for governor, is doing all in his power to
aid the republican party. He has hob
nobbed at republican state headquarters
and is and haa been doing work against
the democrats.
What do honest populists think OF
such business? We respect every mans
opinions but we do not believe that the
rank and file of Populists will endorse
Coxey's scheme to turn the state over to
the republicans. That's his game, moth

Coxey for trying to turn you body and

BushnelI,s BarreII.

Speaking Of barrels, what about the
hogshead that is now on tap by the Re-
publican candidate for governor 1t is
one of the most barefaced and impudent
examples of the power of money in poll
ties ever known in this or any other
state. Bushnell was man little known
over Ohio. He had neither great per-
sona popularity nor even mediocre
ability. Any candid unprejudiced person
who listens to or reads his ridiculous
speeches will agree that he is the weakest
brother ever nominated by either of the
great parties. On the stump he is an
absolute, eggregious and awful failure; he
is even lacking as good mixer or hand.
shaker.
Why then was he nominated by For
aker and Cox in preference to the score
of men of ability and long party service
who we're avowed candidates for the
office?
Simply because he is millionaire,
and could turn the golden flood which
would be expected to make him governor
and Foraker senator. The agreement
was made long before the GAINESVILLE con-
vention.

urged against Louis Loichot, for auditor.
Stark county never had better, more
efficient, more capable, more painstaking

fidelity to duty and his trust. He has

McKinley and protection.

rnerv is unp view IN wnicn great
victory for McKinleyism in Ohio would
be blessing. 1t would strengthen Gov
ernor McKinley's chances for the Re-
publican nomination for the presidency.
No greater boon could be bestowed upon
the national Democratic party than the
nomination of the governor upon his
platform of high protection. McKin.
leyism means protection against any inn
ports at all into this country Of anything
that can be produced or manufactured
here. This would mean protection
against any revenue to be derived from
duties on such imports.
We have few extremists in our own
party who are for free trade. They
want to burn down, the custom houses
and abolish duties on all imports Nc
Kinleyism is the natural complement
or counterpart of free trade. Both are
directed against tariff for revenue, be-
cause the one opposes any duty on inn
ports, and the other opposes imports on
which to impose duties. II Mckinley
ism or free trade could prevail the gov
srnment would be forced to obtain all
its revenue through excise taxes and
taxes ON occupations. II any taxpayers
are curious to see the sources from
which revenue can be derived under an
internal system Of taxation, let them
look at the number Of articles subjected
to internal revenue taxation during the
civil war
II Mckinley could only be nominated
by the Republican national convention
upon the platform that American prod
ucts must monopolize the American
market, and that foreign imports oi
such products must cease entirely, tn,
only campaign document necessary Il
be printed would be the internal reve
nue. law Of 1868. The Democrats O

jority ever given the Republican part,
