z. w. Cunningham, Pres
ident and Manager of the COM
pany, said to the Enquirer cor
respondent that he and nearly
all his employees have been life
long Republicans, but that they
are all for Bryan and free sill
yer.
Mr.. Cunningham said that
the above notice had been post
ed because the company realiz
ed that under free coinage in
creased business would
JUSTIFY INCREASED WAGES.
The company, believing i'm
plicitly in the advantages free
silver would have in putting
men to work, restoring pros
perity and giving men money
with which to buy, is willing to
share its prosperity with its
men.
President Cunningham, who
is a practical molder, then wen
on to show how molders' wages
prior 10 1873 were 80 per cen
higher than they are today
how, after silver vas demonetiz
ed, there was n gradual decline
until the passage of the Bland
Allison act in 1873, which re
viyed the West, increased de
mand for holders products and
resulted in increased wages.
Business depression siz
years later caused another de
cline. In his opinion nothing
will restore permanent prosper
lily but the restoration of silver
In concluding Mr.. Cunningham
remarked:
do you know of any fac
tories Offering increased wage:
if Mckinley is electedl
don't"

ANOTHER rival of Schrader,
the divine healer, has appeared
in Starr County, in the person
of Manuel Sarate. His methods
are not perhaps snch as would
please everyone, judging by The
following description Of his
treatment of patient publish
ed in the San Diego Sun:
manuel Sarate of Lucero
Ranch, Starr Co. took the case
in hand and by simply heating
his hands over the fire and rub
ing the patients head, body
and arms, and pulling the frs
ear until the joints make a
wacking sound which operation
repeated four times restored the
sufferer to a completely norma
condition"

The democrats and populists
have fused in % states with
representation as follows: dem.
ocrats 1873, populists, 68. This
beyond any doubt insures the
election of Bryan. The recent
elections in the southern states
where the populists have always
been strongly arrayed against
the democrats, show a DISPOSE
ton among the farming and
laboring classes to support
Bryan no matter what their
leaders do. 1t is a matter t.
them of great Importance. The
money question is not only to
be settled but the more impor
tsnt matter whether the trusts
and syndicates or the people
shall run this country. This
election will make history that
will either bless or curse the
homes of the common people
for perhaps many generations
no matter what good there might
he in the single gold standard
1t is only reasonable to believe
that its virtue would be de
stroyed by the combines and
trusts that would dictate the
party's policy.

THE reception and enthusi-
asm Bryan is meeting with in
the Dakotas and Minnesota is
only anotherev evidence that there
is a solid West to join with a
solid South in the election OF
next president. At last the
naughty East must look to the
broad prairies of the West and
the cotton fields of the Sunny
South for mercy.

Newark, Ohio, October 10
This city, TO day presents the
now novel spectacle of a factory
voluntarily Offering TO increase
its employees wages, the offer
being accompanied by the pro-
vision that the advance depends
upon the election of William
Jennings Bryan to the Presid
ency of the United States.
Readers of speeches delivered
by Major Mckinley and his
capitalistic friends have been
taught to believe that a Bryan
victory means closed factories,
idle mills and starving families.
This belief has in some in
stances been strengthened by
assertions from manufacturers
themselves.
A company employing labor
exists in this community that,
instead of attempting TO coerce
it's employees or trying TO induce
them to vote for Mckinley, is
generous enough to admit that
nnder the free and unlimited
coinage Of silver and gold wages
will go up, not down.

A story is related of a farmer who
came into a village grocery in ono of
our western states and exhibited TO an
admiring crowd an enormous egg
about inches long, which was laid 10y
one of his old hens. He had it packed
in cotton and wouldn't allow anybody
to handle it for fear of breaking the
phenomenon. The rrcccry man examin-
ed II with tho rest. aud, intending to
chat the country man, said, 'Pshaw,
I've got something IN the egg line that
will beat thatp' III bet you SO you
haven't" said the country man, getting
excited. Take it up!" said the grocery
man, and, going behind the counter, he
brought out a wire egg beater. There's
something in tho egg line that will
beat it, l guess, said ne, reaching for
the stakes. 'Hold on there!' said the
farmer "Let's see you beat it. " And
he handed it TO the grocer. Tic latter
held out his hand Tor It, but dropped it
in surprise on tho counter, where it
broke two soup plates and a platter
1t WAS of iron, painted white. "Seme
folks think they are tarnation cute, "
muttered the farmer as he pocketed che
stakes and left, but tain I no use buck
