sylvanian's Example.
CLEVELAND, May 23.-The Leader,
which better represents Mckinley, per-
haps, than any other newspaper in the
United States, publishes the following
upon the visit Of Quay to Mckinley:
Quay came to Canton. not as the
bearer of messages from any man or
group of men, but as the leader Of the
Republican party in Pennsylvania. He
did not come, as he facetiously re-
marked in Washington, to question Nc
Kinley about his attitude on the money
question. He was Republican leader
visiting the man who will certainly
be the =.
Nominee Of the Republican Party
for president. The giving Of offices was
not considered, nor was the campaign
for the nomination discussed, because
every Republican knows that campaign
to be practically ended. One thing
they did discuss was the campaign
which Mckinley will enter against the
Democratic candidate for president.
Thesconference was most pleasant and
cordial on both sides. The visit OF
Quay was such as will undoubtedly be
made by many other Republican leaders
both before and after the st. Louis con-

is claimed for it, you can easily
churn in ore minute and get q
larger percentage of butter than
with the common chUrns. Ine1er
took the agency for anything be,
fore but so many of my neighbors
wanted churns that / ordtred so
and they are all gone. l think in
a year every farmer will have a
Lightning Churn, In fact they
can't afford to be without one as
they make so much more butter,
and a good bit of money can he
made In every township selling
these churns. By writing to J. II.

can get circulars and full iuforma,
