Those M'Kinley Poster $.

We have all seen those faring Nc
kinley posters representing Mr.. Nc
Kinley as god-like figure standing
i'll the front rank of factory doors
posing as the advance agent of
prosperity An inquisitive contem-
porary has taken the trouble to ex-
anime some Of the figures given on
these posters and set to figuring as
to their accuracy. The poster among
other mis-statements set forth what
Mckinley did for tin plate"
According to the figures ON this
poster the practical result of what
Mckinley did in five years was the
production of $50, 600 tons of tin and
terne plate, the value Of finished
product in five years being 1885,
100000. This, the poster AYERS, has
given employment in this industry
to ''about 10000 persons "at aver
age pay, of men in mills. of $3.50
per day
The impression conveyed to the
hasty reader is that 10000 persons
have been employed in the five years
at an average pay of $3.50 per day
in producing $35,000,000 value OF
finished product. The more careful
reader with pencil in hand, can make
a calculation on the poster which
will show the absurbity of it's claims.
There are six working days in
tin plate week as in all other weeks
when full employment is given. At
$3.50 per day, the 10000 workmen
would earn 100000 week. Throw
ing off fortnight for extra holidays
that would be $30,000,000 year, or
within $5,000,000 of the total value
of the finished product of their labor
for five years. Five years of this
would $150,000,000 spent in labor
alone to produce $35, 100000 worth
of tin plate. That is to say, that for
every dollars worth of tin plate the
manufacturer would have paid out a
fraction over $42S and would in adj
dition have sunk his investment in
plant and materials. What self-sac-
rificing people the tin plate manufac-
turers must be.
Take it another way. If 10000
people have been employed in getting
out $35,000,000 worth of finished
product in five years and the entire
value has been distributed in wages,
they would have received but So
cents day instead of $3.50. Or al
lowing them to have been paid $3.50
a day, instead of having fifty weeks
work in a year they would have had
but seventy days.

Shifting their Ground.

The sold bug organs are making
much Of the recent speculative adj
vance in wheat. But short time ago
otie of their grievances against Bryan
was that his policy would put wheat
up and thereby increase the cost OF
living to the workingman. OF course
the answer to this was that unless
agricultural products advanced in
price the farmer would have no money
TO spend on supplies, and thereby the
mills would be closed or wages reduced.

ufactufing industries OF the country.
So; too, short time ago, and even
now, the gold bugs are opposing any
increase of the currency as against the
general interests of the country; that
it would initiate values and decrease
the purchasing power of wa
ges. Now they are hailing as great
boon the increase of the money supply
by the importation Of gold from Eu-
rope and pointing to the alleged fact
that ii has increased business. If a
few millions of gold imported for
speculative purposes by syndicate
produce this result, who can tell the
benefits that would flow from the re-
monetization Of silver and giving the
money of the constitution back to the
people in an amount commensurate to
the business growth of the country?
In the last two years there has been
a positive decrease of the currency
amounting to 500, 900, 00o, and if this
is added according to John Sherman's
estimate, the increase demanded by
the growth>in population and bust

two years ago, is $3.50. 100000. = Reg

Two weeks from to-day it will be
settled what policies have been en-
dorsed by the American people,
Each man when he goes to the polls
will be confronted by question de-
handing settlement This is not
the money question however vital it
may be, and however much it may
overshadow the Others in this cam
paign. The supreme issue before
the people is; "Shall this nation be
ruled by its men or by its money?
On the one side we have Mckinley,
backed by e,.y trust which fears
the honest enforcement of the law;
every syndicate that hopes to fatten
by looting the Treasury; every cor
poration which is employing dishon-
est methods in it's business; every
rich man who thinks the government
should be run for his private gain
and by Hanna labor killing mon
ster. All these and more an behind
the Major and their investments in
the shape of campaign contributions
will be wrung from suffering peo-
pie in case he is elected On the
other we have seen Bryan backed by
nothing but himself and his cause.
He appeals directly to thoughtful
people. He asks no quarter from
any trust or combination but hon
estly asks all who believe in his cause
to vote for him. He tells every man
who honestly thinks that his election
would ruin the country tovote against
him. Bold, fearless and honest he
is the impersonation of the ideal
christian American. He asks every
one to study the question and to
vote his convictions. The other side
seeks to win by any means fair or
foul.
People differ as to the result of the
different policies offered. Some
think that bimetallism would be a
good thing while others believe that
the gold standard is the only safe
one. But every honest American
knows that if the grip Of gold is not
shortly loosened our Republic is
doomed. Let every voter before he
deposits his ballot fully investigate
this phase Of the election and then
ask himself the question,
"Shall this government be run by
the man or by the dollar?' If this
is done there is very little doubt as
to what the result will be.

The 'honest" money Republicans of
the Ashland kentucky district have
nominated w. G. p. Breckenridge, of
unfragrant memory for Congress, and
the race will be between Democratic
candidate and Breckenridge, support
ed by the Republicans and the Demo-
cratic gold bugs. Where be those vir-
tuous heroics we heard only a few
months ago from the same Republi-
cans that Breckenridge should be per-
manently ostracised from public life
for all time-that his brilliant abili-
ties only made him the greater sinner
of whom shining example should be
made. If we recollect the reverend
clergy dealing in politics were particu-
larry vehement against Breckenridge.
Now his adhesion to the gold stand
ard seems to have wiped his sins away
and he is hailed as one of the right
eous in whom there is no guile. 1t
simply shows that the great money
power of the country will stop at moth
ing in the way of Immortality, cor
ruption and intimidation to carry it's
ends. Breckenridge is also a free
trader.

Another attempt to defahie Mr..
Bryan has rebounded on his accusers.
1t was alleged that he as editor of
the World Herald wrote some very Sc
we're editorials on pension abuses and
quite a good deal of Indignation
was created over some of the utteran-
ces. But 1t is found that the Offend
ing editorial appeared two years be-
fore he was connected with the paper.
OF course this frees him from all
blame of it. Every other accusation
that has been brought against him
when there was any chance to verify
or disprove it has been disproven con-
clusiyely. Does 1t not argue well for
public man that there can not be
found one single thing against him
that can be substituted? Is he not
worthy of the support of all patriotic
citizens who has so completely kept
clear of every unworthy act? W. ].
Bryan is the cleanest man that was
ever presented for the suffrages of the
American voters.

The Mark Hanna organ is
terribly shocked at Mr.. TONNES
wickedness in advising, as it
alleges, voters to sell their votes
for cash. Neither Mr.. Towne
nor any other free silver man
has advised men to sell their
votes. The only vote buyers in
the field are Mr.. Hanna's
agents, and it is generally
agreed, and may have been adj
vised by Mr.. Towne, that voters
take all money offered. In &C.
cepting the money no obliga-
ton is incurred to deliver the
goods. The bribe-giver is an
enemy to society,a traitor to
the people from whom come all
just authority-morally guilty
of treason to the state-and to
to take his money and not de-
liver the goods is simply war
strategen1, which, since the
statute cannot reach the guilty
party-the giver of the BRIDE
becomes the only way in which
he can be punished, and, there
fore, on either patriotic or moral
grounds is perfectly justifab1e.
And in these days since the
money comes from those who
are making it impossible for
men to live by honest labor, it
amounts simply to foraging on
the enemies of popular govern
ment.
