while Candidate Bryan is going about
the country telling fairy tales of what
he and his policy will do for the peor,
the question naturally arises: What
has he ever done for the working poor?

try to relieve the suffering OF. those less
His most loyal supporters make no

fact ne has no record of ever having

Ssyhat he calls the masses. On the
other hand, Maj. Mckinley, while not
nasinp as one who sfweeps for the

about the occurrence which gave the
world nm insight into the heart of the
that no was the friend of those who are
moor and hungry, but a great multitude

memory Of those who learn their bread

Grand Rapids Herald says:

governor at midnight, but before 3,
o'clock in the morning he had upon his
own responsibility dispatched to the af-
sflicted district car containing $1,000

meals for assistance and finally distrib-:

district clothing and provisions to the:

CAMPAIGN NOTES.

There is not so much fanaticism and
foOllshness in the country as was sup
posed when Bryan captured the Chicago
convention with his "crown of thorns"
and "cross of gold" harangue. The
observation-disclosures Of the masses is still
to be counted upon as a safeguard against
Socialism and anarchy.
Powderly hits the nail squarely on the
head when he tells the workingman that
his motto with regard to money should
be, "The best is none too good for
me"
A man is said to have injured his ankle
in silver debate. That's what comes
of letting people with comparatively lit
tie strength juggle with these heavy ar
guments.
Mr.. Powderly, who says the Bryan
free-silver panic would be worse for la
Dor than all the strikes ever known will
who want strikes galore, free silver,
free rum and a general breakup.

have a reputation for honesty and have

tive is put up at Canton.

Neither free silver nor any other cheap
money device can bring prosperity to a
nation burdened with a tariff which OPP
crates adversely to the interests of its
own people. #'.
BRYAN appears to be one Of those men
who think they know it all, and an in
telligent and observing public does not
need to be informed what usually hap
pens to them. &

need Of the time, and that can be done
only by a protective tariff that will re.

val OF that law Of political economy
bor.'' " ea1'n = u4'ts'on - "a
IN 1892 the policy Of protection was re-
versed and thus the laborers from the
shops and factories were, forced from
sheer, necessity to so out upon the lands
and become producers instead of consum-
ers. 1t has been estimated that over a
1872 when compelled to seek employ
ment IN farming in order to obtain sub
,slstence for themselves and families;
many OF. these have converted parcels
Of ground near and around their homes
INTO corn and potato patches, thereby
enormously el decreasing the demand for
:; me products pr Of the regular farm. It
OF this shifting of labor from the mechan-
zeal industries to the farm is considered,
what the effect must be upon prices
of farm products. as
In view; of these facts, all of which can
be verified in the past history of our
country, it is plain that our farmers are
directly interested in the employment of
labor and that their prosperity depends
largely upon whether that labor is en-
ployed as competitors in the production,
OF farm products, or as consumers en-
ployed in the mechanical industries of
the country. We are certainly learning
from severe practical experience the
truth and value of the economic principle
all eady referred to that '.the greatest
creator of wealth is the greatest possible
DIVISION of labor" We are also learning
brought about by wise policy of protec-
ton. 1
The effect of production upon the
products of the farm can be summed up
in a few words. First, will it Increase
or diminish the number engaged in pro-
ducing the products of the farm? Sec
ond, will it increase or diminish the num-
Der Der OF consumers of farm products?
When you have answered these two
plain propositions you will be master Of
the entire argument of protection and
free trade, so far as the farmer is con-
cerned. You need be concerned in no
way, about the free coinage of silver
as this cannot in any way possible in
crease or diminish the consumption of
your products. Its adoption, however,
would have the effect, as Mr.. Bryan
admits, of producing panic and con
tinued depression in our mechanical in
dustries, forcing more labor to the farm
and thereby add to the number already
producing farm products.
The employment of labor in our me-
chanical industries and not the free
coinage of silver is the thing that inter-
ests the farmer and is to secure FOR him
the prosperity he so much desires.-H.

A Misrepresentation.

A man representing himself as a
member of the board of pension ex-
aminers is going about soliciting ap-
plications for increase of pensions in
several adjoining counties, and telling
old soldiers that the act of assembly
granting peddlers' licenses to veterans
of the war will be repealed at the next
session Of the Legislature, urging
them to. Immediately apply for a Ii
cense, which he agrees to furnish for
ST.. The act of assembly says that a
member of the board, as well as the
court, must give such license on ap-
plication, without charge. A soldier
having pension certificate is not re-
quired to have a certificate from the
board Of examiners in order to apply
tor an increase.

Fierce Fight With a Big Bear.

While surveying a tract of land in
Phnket's Creek township, Lycoming
county, G. B. Fry and Joseph Bobst
encountered large black bear A
revolver was the only frearm the men
had, and with this they put seven
bullets into bruin. Fry then attacked
it with the AK. The bear fought furi-
onsly, but was finally killed. The
pistol balls did little else but stun the
brute. The bear weighed 200 pounds

THE COLUMBIAN.
E.OOMSBURG, PA.
Died In Prison.

The announcement of the death
of Ira Sanborn, in a Philadelphia pri-
son, fer the murder of daughter.in-law
and & and child. has elected a great
deal of attention among railroad men
because Of his being formerly employ
ed as an engineer, on the Phila-
delphia & Readings Catawissa branch
running between Lofty, and Cata-
wissa, for many years. He had the
reputation of being one of the fastest
engineers that ever took hold of a
throttle. Sanborn had only one very
bad quality which frequently got him
into trouble and this was his violent
temper. 1t was the cause of his
losing his position with the Reading
scne years ago, after which he re
moved to Philadelphia to reside
with his son. He was a man of
powerful stature having been 6
feet a inches in height, and weigh
'ing over 200 pounds.
The actwhich brought his career on
the Catawssa branch to a close, oc-
cured one night while making a trip
from Catawssa to Lofty. He and his
fireman, Harry Campbell had some
very angry words while climbing up
the grade near Mainville. He charged
furiously on the fireman, who took
refuge on the train knowing full well
the desperate nature of the big engin-
eer. Campbell returned to the engine,
and when approaching the bridge near
Ringtown, Sanbon seized him in his
arms, and threatened to dash him to
death los feet below. He begged for
mercy, and escaped to an empty
freight car. San5orn fred and ran the
engine the remaining part of the run,
and brought his train in on time to
Catawissa on the return trip. After
this he was unable to secure any work
under the Reading, a circumstance
which caused him to develop more
desperate tendencies. In moment
of rage he committed the double
murder will, which he was charged
when he expired.-Ashland telegram.

BioOmers In Paris.

The project of the Paris police has
been seriously exercised of late about
the increasing popularity of the bloomel
as an article of feminine apparel, and
he is now supposed TO be meditating the
imposition of restrictions. The rational
dress was readily adopted by Partisan
ladies when they took to cycling, and
indeed throughout France the sight of q
lady cycling in this costume attracts
but little attention. But in Paris the
dress has been adopted by ladies who
have no intention of taking active exer.
else, and the strange costumes to be
seen on the boulevards have suggested
to the authorities that here is a case OF
wearing male costume without leave.
In France, perhaps alone of western
countries, woman may, If she can
show good cause, obtain special per
init from the police to wear male attire.
