sEwELL'S POSITION.

As the campaign proceeds it becomes
more and more evident that the nomina-
tion of Arthur Sewell for vice president
by the Chicago convention was joke.
Mr.. Sewell is not only O national bank
president, large ship owner and mil
lionaiTe, but he is also pro.ectionist.
That is to say. he is a protectlonist il
some of his affiliations ere to be accept
ed rs evidence against him. He is pres
ident Of the American Merchant Marine
association, an organization which is
devoting its energies 20 securing a tax
on foreign shipping. and which is con-
stantly circulating the strongest kind OF
protectionist literature.
AS late as June Both last Mr.. Sewei's
association sent out a circular calling oD
the republican clubs and minor leguee
to urge upon the people sctlon calculat-
ed to force the policy of taxing ships
upon the democratic national conven-
tion. The circular gave statistics show
ing that under democratic rnle Ameri-
can tonnage had declined, while under
repu bIican rule it had increased. 1t
claimed also thGt protection was the
policy of the democratic fathers, and
had been reversed by their degenerate
descendants. Finally it ssid:
"Whether the democratic party can
be induced to favor the policy which
Thomas jefferson was particularly in.
fiuential in having first established, and
which is the only policy that has ever
been successful in giving to American
ships the carriage of American COM
merce, is not at present known. IL the

conceive to be right, are not deserters.

democrats would Join the republicans
and restore and maintain that policy.
in the same non-partisan and unanimous
manner that it was hundred years ago,
its permaneDce would be assured, it
would continuously employ hundreds OF
thousands OF skilled workmen in Ameri-
can shipyards and would cause the re-
tentIon of hundreds of millions of dol
lars annually sent abroad in gold to pay
foreign ships for carrying American
commerce"
These views must be the views OF Mr.
Sewe!l because be signed the circular,
and while he is to be congratulated up
on entertaining them, it must be said
that as the nominee of the so-called
democratic patty for vice president he
is in singulsriy inconsistent position.
The republican national platform de-
clares in favor Of the restoration or the
American merchant marine by the ad-
option of discriminating duties. On the
subject of protection generally, the re-
publicens said:
We renew and emphasize our allie
glance to the policy of protection as
the bulwark Of American industrial in
dependence and the foundation of
American development and prosperity.
The true American policy taxes foreign
products and encourages home indue-
try; it puts the burden OF
revenue on foreign goods; it secures
the American market for the Americ-
an producer; it upholds the American
standard of wages for the American
workingman; it puts the factory By the
side of the farm, and makes the Amer
lean farmer less dependent on foreign
demand and price; it diffuses general
thrift and founds the strength OF ell on
the strength of each. 1t is reasonable in
application, it is just, fair and impair
tial, equally opposed to foreign control
aud domestic monopoly, to sectional
snd individual favorit-
ism.
With reference to this the Chicago |
Platform ssys:
We denouuce as disturbing to busi-
ness the republican threat to restore
the Mckinley law, which has twice
been condemned by the people in na-
tional eiectiln ne, and which, enacted un-
der the false plea of protection to home
Industry: proved a prolific breeder of

The citizens OF Stafford ara about
ready to go before the people with their
su bscrlption list and petition the Super
visors asking for the election for the re-
moval of the county seat 40 be held.
We hope that every citizen of the
county will consider this we'll and let all
understand fully that the debt of the
county will not be increased by the re-
moval but on the contrary will be d.
minished by the increased valuation of
property. We are in daily communica-
tienswith people from distance asking
about our property in anticipation of
this step being taken by the county.
True, Stafford will reap a great benefit if
the county seat is brought here, but
Graham county on the other hand, will
be able to boast Of her county seat and
can point to 1t with pride instead of max
ing excuses for it.

note is high or low. This young lady
says her range is about one and one

cousin, young boy, possesses this
power of laryngeal whistling, but to
