by the republican party, not because
OF his viewson the currency question,
but because he is the typical repre-
sentative of the policy of Protection.
It was the desire for the re-establish-
ment of Protection that compelled
the Majors unanimous nomination,
and the democratic candidate must
not be allowed to dodge that issue"
Tnk Bryan wing of the town dem
ocrats have banner swim ging across
Bridge street, dedicated to Bryan
and Sswall, but alas for forgatfuluess
or intsnded slight. they omitted to
pat the name of the second vice Pres
idential tail on the barner. They fail
ed to put the name of yice-Presiden-
tial candidate Watson on the banner.
So the galorious banner is minus one
tail.
BRYAk's shadow on the dial plate OF
coming events is having depressing
inhusnce in every department of life.
1t effects even the schools as may be
learned from an article that wa pub
lish in another calumn taken from
the Chambersburg Repository. Read
the article. Ii Bryap's shadow 10 so
depressing what will be the effect
when the man himself appears upon
the stage of Government action.
"THE Vermont farmers knew that
there was no chance Of their getting
hold of any silver-or gold either
no matter how free and unlimited the
coinage, SO long as there were no
wage earners to buy their eggs, hay,
butter and vegetables. And Ameri
Can workmen have not been earning
wages with which to buy the farm
ers' products since the Wilson Law
started in on its task Of destroying
American industries, of shutting
down American factories, and OF CIV
ing to the cheaper labor Of Europe
the work which should have been
done by American workmen."
"LUMBER producers in the United
States are unit in demanding the
restoration of the duty on imported
lumber. The free admission of Can
adian lumber has played havoc with
the saw-mill industry here, and the
mischief will increase in volume ev-
cry year till there is q Tariff placed
on lumber. The Canadian csmpeti-
tion has cut down market values here
20 far that the Canadians themselves
freely admit that they are making
nothing on their sales in our markets,
although they can produce more
cheaply than our own lumbermen
car. Free lumber is FREQ fraud OIL
our producers, and what is true in
the case of lumber is quite rs true in
the case of other important products.

AT the time Of the passage Of the
Wilson bill, when Free Trader Viii
son stated that the march toward Free
Trade had but Just begun, the first
step taken, some one lik ened Mr.. Viii
sons method of procedure to that OF
certain mau who set out to cut of
his dogs tail. This man did not cut
off the poor animals tail at one stroke
bat cut off an inch or two each da.
until the whole was gone. Free Trad
er Bryan agrees with Free-Tradsl
Wilson as to the result to be obtain
ed. but differs with him as to tn
method to be employed. He was no
satisfied with the Wilson bill, because
according to his own words, it "did
not go far enough" His policy woul'
be to give only one stroke and tha
one just behind the ears. Mr.. Viii
son has had his first inch, while Mr.
Bryan wanted o chance to give I
fual stroke. But now Bryan is afrait
to touch upon the subject. But vot
ers will give final stroke to his am
biticns on the third day of next No
vember when they vote for McKinle..
