but quickly passed into the discussion OF
the more important National issues.
Two questions" said he, ''are para
mount in this campaign-proteciion and
money. Republicans say that protection
is the main issue, while Democrats and
Populists insist that free silver should
take precedence. The Democratic party
has ole head and two tails and the tails
are wagging in different directions. The
Republican party has but one head and
one tail and both always work in mar
mony. AS the Democrats are claiming
that free silver is the one thing essential
for the betterment of the condition of the
people OF the United States, the Repub-
licans Will meet them on their own
ground Notwithstanding the evasion of
the main issue of protection by the silver
ties, IN comrarison 10 which the money
