Four years ago the democratic
party promised the people that free
trade was the panacea for prosper

enjoying. On that promise democ-

the disaster and distress of the past
four years. This year this party

THE RALPHSNYDER BOOM.


The greatest hustler in the State
just now is Isaac Cox Ralphsnyder
IN his determination to capture the
gubernatorial nomination on the
free silver Democratic ticket. He
meets with strong encouragement
IN every part of the State, aud is
compelling Gen. Watts to hump
himself. They run together once in
awhile and have lively time. Here
is what the Glenville Path6nder
says OF meeting at that place:
Gen. G. G. Watts, of Kanawha
county, aud Hon. i. g. Ralph
syndcr, of Marion, addressed the
J unferrified Democracy at the court
house mere last Monday. Such vast
Importance was the subject matter
of their speeches that Judge Arm
strong adjourned court IN honor OF
the occasion.
The Pathfnliey is an able Repub
lican paper, and not likely to be
favorable to- either one. Hence It's
views are freely expressed and goes
ON further to remark
Candidates Watts and Ralph
snyder clashed together here last
Monday and made quite All inter-
estlng time for tho boys. 1t was
advertised as the Generals day,
but the very sudden and unexpect.
cd advent Of his opponent, Ralph
snyder, threw damper OF his pic
mic. Mr.. Watts impressed his au-
dIence very fav0rabIy, but, alas !
when RalPhsnyder got up and spoke
his little piece, the Watts stock
took tumble and his cause weak
ened. Their discussion was a spicy
one and considerable temper was
displayed on either side.
The Olarksburg TribWne, one Of
the strongest Democratic papers in
the State, and earnestly advocating
freee silver, has this to say Of the
matter
Hon. Isaac G.. Ralphsnyder, of
/ Preston county, is candidate for
Governor. with campaign hoadquar-
tcrs at Fairmont. Mr.. Ralphsny o.

10 hesitation IN aYowlng his posi-
tion and abiding by the conse-
qaences Of such ayowal. Believing
that course TO be right, he has the

SO far, nc is the only candidate in
the fold who has boldly taken a
stand m favor Of the people. 9th.
ers may yet come out IN favor OF
FREQ silver, but until they DO so,
Mr. Ralphsnyder deserves the sup.
port Of every silver man in the
State. The position Of the Jribune
on this important question is too
we'll known to need re-statiug. II
