Two Notable Speeches,

One of the remarkable features
of this campaign on the part of the
Republican candidate is the num-
Der and variety of delegations of PEG.
pie who visit him from all parts of
the country. Special trains loaded
with Mckinley admirers go into
Canton every day and there is not
day passes that the great Ohioan
is not called upon to reply to then
hearty congratulatory addresses.
Last Monday Mr.. Mckinley had
two notable delegations to call upon
him. The first was a delegation OF
1000 potters representing the potter
les around East Liverpool and other
points. They were joined along the
route by others until the delegation
numbered over three thousand when
it reached Canton.
The next was delegation of 500
Knox county farmers. This dele
cation was led from the railroad
station to the Mckinley residence
by wagon load of freshly mown
hay.
In his address to the first delega-
ton the great protectionist advocate
showed that he knew all about the
pottery industry and just what it
needed, and then he addressed the
delegation as the representatives of
labor in the present contest, say
ing
owe cannot help labor by reduc-
ing the value of the wages in which
it is paid. The way to help labor
is to promote it with steady work
and good wages, and then have these
good wages always paid in good
money!
The delegation of farmers found
that Major Mckinley had studied
their grievances and realized the
danger of their seeking a false rem
edY. His brief address contained
among other solid chunks of wisdom
the following texts for Transparent
cies-truths which the farmers
should ponder between this and
Whatever the farmer is suffering

The Majors Melon.

Mrj. Mckinley has received an
enormous watermelon from a Texas
admlrer, who also sent with it the
following letter, which is worth
careful examination: 81 ship Won
by to-day's express a Texas water
melon (grown by A. Ii. Richardson,
an eX-ranchman,) weighing SO
pounds. Its weight partly repre-
sents your vote over the ffty-four
pound melon sent to VIM. j. Bryan
from Georgia. 1t is packed in hay
and Texas wool. Wool Is now one
of our cheapest materials for pack
ing purposes. The hay is the pro-
duct of an abandoned sheep ranch.
The top of the box is fastened with
raw hide imported from Mexico on
free Mexican COW. The entire
hide is now valued at only fifty
cents. 1t was paid for IN the large
free coinage Mexican silver dollar,
which deprecated to fifty cents in
two seconds in transit, it beng
thrown across the Rio Grande river,
a distance of 100 yards"

THE speech of the Hon. John P.
Townsend, of New York, which
was delivered by him at the Loeb
Lynn hotel last Wednesday night
will be found in this issue of The

Townsend made some sound argu-
ments and it will amply repay even
those who were present upon the oc-
casIon to read the speech.

JUDAS IsCARIoT, it will be re-
membered, went wrong on a silver
issue. He did not after his act of
betrayal, however, undertake to
organize SILVER party. His con-
science accused him and he went
out and hanged himself. Dem
ocrats who now find themselves
tempted to betray their party and
forswear their principles should
overhaul antecedent silver opera
tions and take notes.

how honest other people may be,
the farmer who has borrowed 81 900
from his neighbor to purchase or
improve his property is dishonest
enough to want to repay that neigh
Dor in money worth only half as
much as the money which he bor-
rowed of him.
Without stopping to discuss the
ethics or the fairness of that propo-
sitiOn, let us see how the expected
rise in prices will affect the farmer.
Suppose that the price Of his wheat
goes up to 81 or more in debased
money, and the prices of all other
commodities advance correspond
ingly, as of course they would,
is the farmer to do all selling and
no buying? Not much. His fer
tilizer and his farming implements
will still have to be bought-at dou
bic prices; vehicles must be bought
and repaired, and his taxes must
be paId-all at double prices. He
must buy the necessary commodi-
ties for his household-at double
prices. The sugar his good wife
uses at the table, in the pantry OF
for preserving will more than dou-
bic in price. 1t has to be paid fol
in gold. 1t costs s cents pound
in Mexico where it costs / cents
here. Coffee will cost twice as much
clothes will be twice as high. Boots
and shoes must be paid for at the
same increased prices. And wher
he sends his wheat to market hi
will have to pay double the present
freight rates, because the railroad
will be compelled to charge them
And so it goes. Under the gen
eral initiation of prices caused by tn,
debasement of money the farme:
will have to raise more wheat to pa,
for family comfort than he does now
Can he do it? Hardly.
But there is a way in which h,
CAN get along, under free silve
coinage. He can do as the farme
in free-silver Mexico and Argentin;
, does-he can do without! No sugar
no coffee, no decent furniture, cheap
clothes, no shoes-none of the re
J finements of life, none of the com
. forts, and but few of the bare nee
essities.
The American farmer who desires
to degrade himself, his wife anC
children to the Argentina STANDARD
ought to vote for Bryan and FREE
silver. The farmer who wants him
self and his family to enjoy the
blessings of civilization under thu
best government the world ever saw
ought to vote for Mckinley anC
Honest Money.
