cAppairl vas made against the $780,
100000 surplus. They charged that
it WAS an outrage for the republicans
to have that much in The Treasury.
When Mr.. Cleveland went out Of Of
flee, there was only S10O,O00,O00 in
the treasury They had got rid OF
3O0,O00,0O0 in three years, and if
they had not gone out Of office when
they did, they would have had pam

Mr.. Harrison came into power and
that stopped the downward course OF
affairs. He could not restore the
100000, 900 in the Treasury, but be

unconstitutional because of the repub

curing money with which to pay the
expenses of running the government,
and to protect cur workmen from
having their business broken down
by goods made in Europe by cheap

enough to listen 20 the cry of the
democrats against the robber manu-

democratic administration, which

the pinching times through which
they are passing Most democrats
are for the American business des-
troying agency of free trade, but
they have fallen out with each other
on the question of the free coinage of
silver, and on the question of the

The better element of the democracy
will not support the dangerous rev
oluiionary plans of the Bryan ele-
ment of the democratic party. The
truth is the revolutionary element of
the democracy led by Bryan seem to
be more antagonjstic to the Cleve-
land wing of the party, who are for
honest money and the protection Of
all interests of the United States in
every state of the Union. The Cleve
land wing will not support the Bry.
an revolutionjsts. The duty of the
hour for republicans Is to stand to-
gether rs one man in this hour of su-
preme danger. If the republicans
falter now, all that has been gained
for the unity of the states and sound
money will be lost and the hands on
the dial plate of American progress
and prosperity will be turned back,
no one knows how long. Perhaps for
q period of three generations. Vote
the whole republican ticket, nation,
state and county, and you will make
no mistake.
