Not a Sectional Matter,

This contest is not between the peo-
pie of the west and south and those Of
the east. There will be no marshaling
of armies nor will the blood of kindred
be shed in mighty struggle, while the
money power in Its safe retreat forges
new fetters for the limbs Of all alike as
it forged them 80 years ago. The con-
test is between the whole people in the
east, the west, the north and the south
and the few who in the cruel selfshness
of wealth would make the happy citi-
zens Of q free republic the helots of a
crushing ohgarchy, born without a fu-
ture, toiling without hope and dying
as die the weeds by the roadside in the
brown autumn. The interests Of all the
people are the same wherever their
homes may be situated
At present, unhappily, the people Of
many Of the eastern states do not know
how thoroughly they are serving the
purposes of the monster Of greed, and
at the approaching election a majority
of them will vote in favor of wearing a
chain stronger and more degrading than
any made of steel. history must repeat
itself. From out of the west, this time
in harmony with the south, another
wave must come. Having remedied one
evil, the work must be completed by
the remedying of those other and gross
er evils fastened on the Union by the
money power, and when the wave has
swept over the land and thesrule of the
people is restored, the redeemed voters
Of the east will marvel again at the
blindness which now fills their eyes. -

THE Bryan Press makes Congress
man Dewitt say that the Republi-
cans who are friendly to silver will
vote the Republican ticket on account
of tariff, while many Democrats will
not trust Democracy further on eth
er tariff or money and will quit the
Democratic party" And upon that
he relies for reelection. There is
no free silver Republican who will
vote for Mckinley on account of the
tariff. The tariff question is settled,
and even the election of Mckinley
will not resurrect the Mckinley law,
and the free silver Republicans are
not to be thus hoodwinked. And as
to Democrats not trusting their party
further, that is mere hogwash. Dem
ocrats, with a few exceptions, Chose
who have been blessed with more of
the goods of this world than they de-
serve are for the old party and the
good old constitutional money, gold
and silver, both to be coined free and
to be used as money for the payment
of all debts. Mr.. Dewitt will not go
back to Congress.

France and Our Country.

The Bank of France, which is prac-
tically a government institution and
stands related to the treasury OF France
in this respectsas our treasury does to
our currency system, pays out gold'o or
silver at the option Of the bank and at
the convenience Of the bank and not at
the option or demand of thenote holder,
and yet all the money of France is
maintained at a parity. But we are
confronted with the argument that this
country of ours Of 45 states, with its
territories, of over 10000, 600 of people,
with probably~more than $4,000, 000,-
900 Of wealth, with a productive power
as great as France, Germany and Eng
land combined, or nearly so, is not able
to maintain the unlimited use Of gold
and silver; that we should waitSor the
assistance and agreement, or league,
with other NATIONS, especially England
To admit that to be true is. to abandon
all hope Of the restoration of silver, and
none knows it better than tbosetwho pre-
tend to advocate such. a policy. The
American people are strong enough to
establish policy of their own. Un-
qpestionably, Whatever policy the United
States may adopt with regard to silver
will be the policy Of this continent, and
our money wiA circulate and be used
not solely as tie money Of the United,
States, but Of all America -R p.

ANNIVERSARY SALE
Bryan Nominated by the Silver
and Populist Parties.


The national convention OF the sill
yer party was brought to close on
Friday by the delegates nominating
Bryan and Sewall as their standard
bearers. The nominations were
unanimous, there being no opposition.
In this, the silver convention went out
of the usual order of conventions this
year, as in all others the sentiment
was not all one way. AS the dele
gates to the silver convention were
made up principally of Republicans,
it will be seen that Bryan and Sewall
are to receive the solid support of the
silver Republicans, without any ifs
or ands.
The delegates in the Populist con
vention were not as harmonious as
were those of their silver friends, but
on Saturday Bryan was nominated
by a vote of 1912 to 321 by the Popu-
lists. But this convention, to be a
little contrary, and we might say
foolish, refused to support Mr.. SewalI
as the running mate of Mr.. Bryan
and Hon. Thos. E. Watson, of Geor
gia, was nominated for Vice Presi
dent.
The result of these two st. Louis
conventions assures the election oi
Mr.. Bryan as the successor of Presi
dent Cleveland, and even makes Ohio
as doubly doubtful for Mckinley, foI
with the free silver forces united the
gold standard and protective tariff
advocates can and will be routed
in this state.
Hurrah for Bryan and Sewall and
the emancipation of the people from
gold and British rule.
Democratic Northwest and Henry County news. [volume] (Napoleon, O. [Ohio]) 1894-1905, 1896-07-30

THE Defiance Republican says the
farmers of Defiance county are about
driven to the wall, factories are shut
down, and business men are sorely
distressed, and in the next breath
asks the people to continue the gold
or single standard by electing
Mckinley president. The gold stand
ard has been in vogue since 1878, and
matters have been going from bad to
worser until now the people are in
the condition the Republican says
they are. These being facts, then why
not change to the double standard of
gold and silver, the good old consti-
tutional money, which the people
had up to 1878? This change is what
the Democratic party is trying to
bring about, and a vote for Bryan
and Sewall is a vote to restore the
white metal, which will bring pros
perity to our people.

The friends of free silver coinage
can and viii carry Ohio this year. In
1892 on the free silver issue not near
ly so clearly defined, majority of
the voters expressed their will in its
favor, but through a lack OF knowl-
edge of the intricate rules of the cleo
tion laws only one elector was chosen.
This year the silver voters will make
no such mistake and will chose 90
electors to vote for Bryan and the
free coinage of silver and better times.

His Lucky Number.

There is, perhaps, no superstition
so general throughout the civilized
world as that regarding the figure 13
being an unlucky number. How it
originated, perhaps, will never be
known, but it is generally attributed
to the presence of the Twelve Apos-
tie and Christ at the last supper.
There is also a worldwide supersti-
ton regarding the figure being a
luck number, and throughout all the
railroads of this country the EN-
gineers invariably select the Z in
preference to any other engine. 1t
is said that many of the railroads
omit numbering an engine 10, be-
cause it is difficult to get an engineer
to take charge of it.
When the Democratic nominee for
president, w. j. Bryan, arrived at
Chicago, several weeks before the
convention convened, he put up at a
hotel the name of which is spelled
with seven letters-Cliftou. The
clerk assigned him to room No. Z.

He was nominated by H. 7. Lewis,

spelled with seven letters. Mr.. Bry-
ans home is in city of seven letters,

charge of the convention was Harri-

He wears a No. shoe and No.

that followed the standard of Ne

The name of the club that Mrs.
Bryan organized is spelled with seven
letters-Sorosis-and he referred to
just seven kinds of business men in
his great speech that secured his
nomination. There were seven Cali
didates for the president nominated
before the convention, and the sleep

THE Republican platform admits
that bimetallism is right but wants
Great Britain to agree toit. If bime-
tallism is right let America lead the
procession. England owns enough
American securities to fall into line.
But if we wait until England consents
to bimetallism before returning to
the double standard England will
continue to dictate terms until the
United States becomes one of her
dependencies. Down with British
intolerance and dictation to the
United States. If we are free and
