Projections Champion Named for
the Presidency.

He believes that the American dollar should
have some grains of sense as well as more of
silver; tnat there can be no stability to our
currency or money If we keep adopting such
shifting policies as that under them the same
piece may be a copper cent in one hand or
dollar in another. He believes that unlimited
coinage would soon lead to unlimited bank
ruptcy. No honest farmer would borrow from
his neighbor bushel of 50-cent wheat and
insist upon paying him back with bushei of
25-cent oats, and so this great Government
cannot expect to keep its credit at the highest
point if it borrows a dollar and insists upon
paying back with 50-cent silver, any other
construction of the word "coin" in any laws or
contracts to the contrary notwithstanding.
The platform of this convention must be for
sound money, and in clear, ringing, unmis-
taxable terms. On any other construction OF
1t the party may get into power, but the coun-
try would be in danger of falling into the
batch of bankrupt governments and at the
END OF the partys administration 1t would
probably have no more of an estate than did
Rabeisis, whose will, when opened, read: "ln
the name of God, amen. l have nothing. l
owe much. give the rest to the poor"
AT a time when a nation wildly looks at an
other nation, standing with mute lips apart,
Allison did not meet with clinched fist the
profered hand of international adjustment.
However, he has stood unwaveringly by the
Monroe doctrine and insisted that the United
States should recognize any people struggling
for liberty and republican institutions, even
If they are insurgents in Cuba. 1 ask you TO
nominate him. If you do, the people from the
sand-enshrouded Mexican line to the life wire
that separates us from an unborn daughter on
the north will shout as in one glorious, glad
anthem, "The old temple of Republicanism
still stands. Flock to it for shelter"
If you do, every keynote of the campaign
will be kept at concert pitch. If you do, the
White House will be used no longer as an ex-
pertinent station. Nominate him and thrill
of joy will go from the West TO the East, carry
ing on its trembling way the songs of our
reapers, only to be lost in the roars of your
furnaces. Nominate him, and when our corn
grows old in autumn's time, when our fiocks
are teeming and our granaries are full, every
spindle will be turning day and night upon
the Merrimac.
The speech was an eloquent one and
was loudly applauded at some points.

chusetts, and Senator Lodge nominated
Thomas B. Reed for the Presidency in the
following speech:
Four years ago we met as we meet now,
representatives of the great Republican party.
Prosperity was in the land. Capital was con-
fdent and labor employed. There was the
good days wage Tor the good days work, ana
the spirit OF American enterprise was strrlhg
and bold. The treasury was fuli, the puphc
revenues ample for the public need. We were
at peace with all the world and had placed
prudent hand on the key OF the Paclne'
Four short years have come and gone Look
about you now. The treasury is empty. Our
credit is impaired. Our revenues are deficient.
We meet the public needs not with income
but by borrowing at high rates and pledging
the future for the wants of the present.
Business is paralyzed. Confidence has
gone. Enterprise has folded its eagle
wings and mopes and blinks in the market
place. Our mills are idle and our railroads
crippled. Capital hides itself and labor idly
walks the street. There is neither good days
wage nor goods days work. We have met
Sights abroad and have serious dlnerences
with other nations The key OF the racine mas
slipped from nerveless hands. Foreign troops
have been landed in this hemisphere. Our
own boundaries have been threatened in
Tended, but is not yet yindicated. The people
OF neigh Dor island, fighting for freedom, look
toward us with imploring eyes, and look in
vain. The American policy which would pro-
tect our industries at home and our nag abroad
has faded and withered away
Look then upon that picture and then on this.
Could you on that fair mountain leave
to feed and fatten on this moor?
But four short years have come and gone,
and they have brought this change. What has
happened? l will tell you in word. The
Democratic party has been in power. That is
the answer.
Upon us falls the heavy burden of binding
up these wounds and bringing relief to all
this suffering. The Democrats deceived the
people by promising them the millennium
and the miserable results of those lying prom
ises are all about US to-day. We have no
promises to make. We pledge ourselves only
to that which we believe we can perform. We
will do our best. That is all. And, as in 1860
We saved the Union and abolished slavery, SO
now in 1896 we will deal with this Demo-
cratic legacy of blunders bankruptcy and
misfortune.
We are gathered here to choose the next
President OF the United States. That we will
win in the election no man doubts. But let
us hot deceive ourselves with the pleasant
fancy that the campaign is to be an easy one.
1t will be a hard battle; it cannot be other
wise when so much depends upon the result.
Against the Republican party, representing
fixed American policies, strength, progress
and order, will be arrayed not only that or
ganized failure, the Democratic party. but all
the wandering forces OF political chaos and
social disorder.

THE SHAKERS IDEAS OF MEDICINE

Now a days when man goes to his doctor,
he is usually told that he has some unheard
Of disease with a long name, and when he
leaves the office hc does not know whether it
is St. Nitus Dance or consumption that is
gradually undermining his health.
1t is therefore refreshing to talk with the
Shakers, for their very simplicity commands
confidence and respect, and we have the
further satisfaction Of knowing that they
have devoted themselves to the study of
disease and its cure for more than hundred
years
The venerable old man whom the writer
saw was only too glad to discuss his pet
subject lie said that strange as it might
seem, very few doctors realized that three
quarters Of the most prevalent diseases were
all attributable to faulty digestion.
He then went on TO say that a child Of
average intelligence knows that putrid meat
or decaying vegetables are poisonous and
must be avoided, and yet these same foods,
even if taken into the stomach in the freshest
possible condition soon dcCOmpOsc unless
digested and absorbed.
In such cases the resulting poisons enter
the system, when aches and pains, weakness
and debility soon follow as a natural con-
sequence.
1t was recognition of this that led the
Shakers to devote their energies to the per-
fcction of product which would stimulate
the digestive organs and assist them to per-
form their proper work.
The first symptom of disordcred diges-
ton is loss of appetite, and the Shaker
Digestive Cordial is wonderfully efficient in
supplying any deficiency in this respect, at
tbo sornp timp il relieves all distress after
eating. Furthermore, as was carefully eX-
planned by our venerable friend, it is abso-
lutely harmless.
Better evidence of the Shakers confidence
in it could not be found, than in the fact
that they have placed 10 cent sample bottles
in the hands of all druggists assured that if
once tried it will produce such immediate
and marked benefit that it will be continued.

The silverite orators insist that the dol
lars we have now, which are maintained
at parity with gold by the government,
are too good for the people of the United
States-that they are really two-dollar
dollars. There is food for reflection in
this contention. The wage earners, the
depositors in savings banks, the buyers of
Insurance. the pensioners and all other
persons who are getting two-dollar dol
lars for their services or their dues, are
asked to go to the polls and help them
selves to money half rs good There have

out Of his way to cast reflection upon the
Irish race, lie apparently attributes the
passage of the Chinese Exclusion act to the
sons Of the Emerald Isle, and for whom Ii
has apparently bitter hatred His knowl-
edge however, is at fault as to the extent of
the Irish population in this country. There
are 300, 600 manufacturing establishments in
this country employing 100000 skilled
artisans and mechanics, exclusive of ordinary
laborers and not per cent of these people
are Irish. There are 100000 farmers in
the United States and not ] per cent. of
them are Irish Besides, the legislators OF
this country will continue to legislatc for the
benefit of our 100000 of people rather
than for the lOO,OOOOOO Chinese. What is
more, many Of Americas greatest statesmen
are of Irish decent, and every American will
resent the reflection cast upon them by this
foreign ruler who should know that he can
not attack any portion Of our people without
receiving the condemnation of them all.

not farthing had been paid to any Irish
member of parliament or devoted to any
