THE Republicans are on the run
and are resorting to every means to
get votes away from Bryan. Their
latest move is in sending out circulars
to the country mail carriers. James

LEAFLETS last Saturday and handed it
to us for perusal. The contents are
tool contradicting to deserve even
passing notice. 1t contains three
pages about salaries being paid in 50

prayer to the carriers to vote for Nc

Where's the Difference?

The gold bug press are very much
worried over the Prince Bismark's s
letter to Governor Culberson. They
seek to give it a different meaning.
"Harper's Weekly' says the mistrans-
lation is in this: 81 hold that this is
the very hour that would.be advisable
to bring about between the nations,
chiefly engaged in the worlds COM
merce mutual agreement in favor
of the establishment of bimetallism;"
when it should read, says the Weekly,
II believe to this day that it would
be commendable to obtain by en-
deavorers of those nations chiefly en-
gagged in the worlds commerce an
agreement in the direction of bimet-
alllsm."
What of the difference in the trans
lation? 1t is mere change of the
wordsiwithout a change of meaning.
The leading thought, by either
translation is that the re-establish-
ment of silver is the right thing to
do. II that is the idea and we sub
NIT if it is not-then Prince Bismark
says the gold standard is bad thing.
In this he agrees with all parties, not
even excepting the Republican party,
which acknowledges it bad thing
by declaring it will free us from it
just as soon as England will help.

WE are sorry that it was impossible
to putin type for this issue, being
oyer crowded, the excellent COM
munication from Mr.. o. NJ. Randolph
of Mcclure. Mr.. Randolph was for
merly a Republican but left the par
ty when it bowed down to the behests
of England at st. Louis, and joined
the ranks of the party in favor of
providing our currency without the
advice from England or any other
nation-the Democratic party, the
free silver party. Mr.. R. is enthusi-
astic for Bryan, honest money and
the rights of the common people, as
are scores of other former Republic
cans of Damascus Township.

THE paper on which the ballot for
the November election is printed is
as large as this page. 1t contains
seven tickets in this order: Republi-
can, Democratic, Peoples, Prohi-
bition, National, Social Labor, Ma,
tional Democratic. On the Peoples
ticket there will be but one name
that of one candidate for elector
which is a scheme Of the partisan Sec
retary of State to confuse Peoples
party voters and have them lose theil
votes. To balk this bold outrage
and to avoid any confusion or trouble
will be for you, when you enter the

MORERRPUBLICAN DEVILTRY!
A Scheme to Confuse POpalist Voters!
So That Their Votes May Not be
Counted.

One OF the last damnable schemes
Of the Republicans, on the eve Of the
election, in order to defraud Populists
OF their votes, is the refusal Of the
partisan Secretary of State, W. f.
Taylor, to remove from the ticket the
name of VIM. F. Barr, although Mr.
Barr has given his resignation to the
Secretary of State and it is now on
file in that Office.
The object and intent of this piece
of rascality of bearing the single
name of Mr.. Barr upon the electoral
ticket under the heading of the Peo-
ples Party Ticket, is to deceive the
Peoples party voters into voting for
Mr.. Barr and thus making them lose
their vote upon the whole electoral
ticket.
Attention is called to this outrage
which has been attempted by Secre
tary Taylor and his political hench
man, Chas. E. Kinney, his chief CLERK
and the Republican candidate fol
Secretary of State. Peoples party
advocates should be on. their guard
against this fraud, and no doubt they
will rebuke the bold attempt to have
them lose their votes by simply put
ting their cross in the circle under tht
ROOSTER, thereby running no risi
of having their vote thrown out. d.
tins, and these Republican trickster'
will be balked in their nefariou
work, and you will have served your
self and your country well.

Hon. B. A. robson,
Don't Divide Forces!

Taking it for granted that the Pop
ulists of Henry county wish for the
success of the silver cause above any
thing else in this campaign, they
should mass their votes upon the free
silver candidates who can be elected,
or have fighting chance of an elec-
ton. This is especially true in the
case of Congressman from this dis
trict. There is no hope for the cleo
tion of the Populist candidate for
Congress in this district, but the Hon.
David Meekison's election can be
made doubly sure by the united sup
port of all the silver forces in the 9th
district. He is an out and out advo-
cate for the free and unlimited coin
age of silver, and as he is the only
free coinage candidate who can be
elected, it behooves all silver men to
cast their ballots for him. Do this
and our Populist friends as well us
Democrats will have the assurance
of knowing that their votes are cast
so as to be counted for silver. 9th
erwise, their votes are simply thrown
away, and in reality are in favor OF
the election of Dewitt, the gold stand
ard candidate. This can also be said
of any other candidate upon the
Democratic or Peoples tickets. The
Democratic ticket throughout is the
only silver ticket which can be sue
cessful. The fight is between the
single gold standard ticket, Republi-
can, and the double standard ticket,
Democratic, and one or the other
must triumph. This being the case,
the Populists should put their X in
the circle below the rooster, and no
other mark upon their ticket, to
make their votes effective and to rep
resent their free silver sentiments!

In the presidential election this fall

In the presidential election this fall
there are to be chosen 447 electors,
being three more than in the election
of 1899, owing to the admission
of the state of Utah. Thus
224 votes are required to elect a
president this time. Friends of sill.
yer should see to it that their forces
are not divided. Therefore, let nc
silver votes be thrown away on tick
cts which stand no possible chance
of an election. A vote for any other
name for Congress outside of that OF
Hon. David Meekison, is vote
against silver and for the election oi
Dewitt, a gold bug.

THE WOMEN VOTING.
Ladies are Given q Chance tC
Express their Choice for
President.

The women's vote, now being
taken throughout the country, for
President, is of great intertst to all
parties, as it has long been a matter
of conjecture what course they would
pursue if given the elective franchise.
Large numbers of the best ladies in
the land are making use of this op-
portunity to express their own views,
and the final result of the woman's
vote is looked forward to with great
interest. The ladies seem deeply in
earnest in this opportunity to ex-
press their preference in national af-
fairs. 1t is true the movement brings
into marked prominence manufact-
uring firm whose Office force is used
for receiving and reporting the ballot
twice week but that fact is simply
incidental and does not detract from
the profund public interest in the
question of the woman's vote. 1t
has been urged that the vote is per-
haps more sure to be accurately and
fairly counted by the skilled accoun-
tants Of a business office than when
handled by some of the ordinary
judges OF election. However this may
be, the Company is OF National re-
pute, and pledge their commercial
integrity and honor to an accurate
and final counting under oath.

port may, or may not, be favorable
to the candidate this paper supports,

stands, and the reader must form his
own conclusions therefrom.

HENRY COUNTY
RELIABLY FOR BRYAN, FREE
SILVER AND HUMANITY!
Patriotic Republicans, POpuliStS and
PrOhibitiOniStS EnliSting in the
Bryan Ranks.

The NORTHWEST has reliable in
formation from all sections of the
country which indicates a political
revolution in Henry on November Sd.
The farmers are rallylng around
Bryan and free silver to an extent
which has become alarming to the
Republicans, and in consequence
they are working harder and spend
ing Mark Hanna's corruption fund
more lavishly than ever. But the
tide is against them, and hundreds of
the very best and most intelligent
Republican farmers of the county
are convinced that their party has
gone back on it's record on silver and
that Mckinley has been captured
body and britches by trusts and gold
advocates of Wall and Lumbard
streets. For this reason they will
vote for Bryan and the restoration of
the white metal.
While this is true of the farmers,
the labor vote is almost a unit for
Bryan. Although much of the labor
vote has been intimidated and is out
wardly for Mckinley, yet when the
polls are reached under the Australian
system it will assert its independence,
under cover of the law, and labor
will be recorded for Bryan and better
times.

of it may lie dormant until the cleo

Startling Facts.

On the first day of March, 1867, the
total national debt was $2,s27, 1888,
$500.
By the close of the year 1896 we had
paid upon it, in interest alone, in
gold, SO, ,635, COO G0e6. 90, 4or a sum about
equal to the Total original principal
of the national debt,
By the contraction OF the currency
during nearly thirty years and gold
monometallism, the value of gold,
measured by its purchasing power,
has doubled, hence the interest has
been equivalent to double the original
debt at the value of gold in products
at the time when the debts was con-
tracted.
But the bonds, on account of which
the debt was incurred, were not paid
for in gold, but in notes which cost
the creditor only from forty to sixty
five cents on the dollar.
If we assume that the average cost
was fifty cents, then we had paid in
gold, for interest alone, five times as
much as the original loans cost the
bankers who purchased the bonds.
In addition to this immense sun
paid on account of interest, $1,700,
900, ,00O.OO has been paid on account
of the principal, making an aggre
gate cash payment, at the nomina
value of gold, Of $4,400, 900, ,000.0 90
which is now doubled in purchasing
power by imitation.
Consequently we have paid more
than three fifths Of the entire princi
pal of the debt (desides the fabulous
sum in interest), and yet the less
than two fifths of the debts remain
ing is worth more to the holders of il
than the entire debt was at the time
when it was contracted.
To pay the debt at the close of 1885,
it was estimated would have required
846, 900, 900 more bushels of wheat OF
s, ,673, ,4O8, 900 more pounds of cotton
and like proportions Of other pro
ducts, than would have been neces
sary to pay it on the 1st OF March
1866, when the nominal amount was
two and one half times greater thar
it is now.
