Quincy Mcbride spent last week with his
parents at Burton, finding time Saturday to
call on Owosso friends. AS most of our
readers know, Mr.. Mcbride travels through
Wisconsin, Minnesota, Nebraska Iowa, the
Dakotas and other western states for the
Diamond Salt Co., thus coming In contact
with representative business men in nearly
every town in these states. He said to
THE TIMES that political sentiment in all
of the states is decidedly favorable to the
republicans. From his observations and
inquiries in Nebraska he is thoroughly con-
vinced that Bryan cannot carry his own
state. In the western part of the state the
farmers deperd upon the sheep industry for
livelihood, while In other parts of the state
the growing Of sugar beets had come to be
the chief reliance of large part of the rural
population. Both were destroyed by the
Wilson tariff law, which Mr.. Bryan helped
to form and pass. As a result Bryan will
lose the state. Mr.. Mcbride believes each

No republican in the city approves of the
attack made in the Owosso correspondence
of the Detroit Journal, Monday evening, OH
II. s. Hadsall. The statement that Mr..
Hadsall is not an attorney, but only an in
surance agent, is wholly untrue, as every
one in the community knows. He is recog-
nized by the bar of the county as reputa-
BILE attorney and has good practice. The
republicans of Shiawassee county are going
to win in this campaign without slandering
any candidate, and the Journal article is
condemned on all sides. 1t is apparent
that the Journal will do well to call down
its young (demOcraticl correspondent.

The money standard of a great nation
should be as fixed and permanent as the
nation itself. To secure and retain the
best should be the desire Of every right
minded citizen. The necessity of certain
and fixed money value between nations, as
we'll as individuals, has grown out of the
interchange of commodities, the trade and
business relationships which have arisen
among the peoples Of the.world, with the en-
largement of human wants and the broad
ening of human interests. This necessity
has made gold the final standard of all en-
lightened natiOns.-Garrett A. Hobart.

Want More of This.

The election of the Bryan ticket would
mean four years more of the industry
wrecking, abor.robbing, business-killing
Wilson German tariff. 1t would mean four
years more of impoverished revenues and
increasing deficits. 1t would mean four
years more of what. we have had during the
past three years.
Have not the people had enough of this
kind of experience? How is it with the
farmers of Michigan? What is the Wilson
German law doing for them?
Let us briefly cite: 1t knocks the farm
ers' wool market out with free trade club.
1t knocks off 20 cents per bushel on every
bushel of onions he sells.
1t knocks off cents per pound on his
butter.
1t knocks off cents pound on his
cheese.
1t knocks off 8 cents pound on his hams
and bacon. oia'
1t knocks off IS cents on every bushel of
his barley.
1t knocks off 10 cents on every bushel of
bis apples.
1t knocks off cents on every dozen Of
his eggs.
1t knocks off so cents on every one of his
sheep.
1t knocks off cents on every bushel of
his oats.
1t knocks off cents on every bushel of
his wheat
1t knocks off 10 cents on every gallon Of
his honey.
1t knocks of So per head on his cattle and
SIS per head on his horses.
1t knocks off 10 cents on every bushel of
his potatoes.
1t knocks off cents on every pound Of
his hops, and cents on every bushel of his
corn.
1t knocks off So on every ton of his hay.
1t does more knocking off than this, but
this is enough to show that it is time for the
farmers as we'll as the representatives of all
other American industries to go to the polls
and knock out the party that proposes to
continue in force, the Wilson German tariff
law. The knocking off figures here given
show the difference in the duties on imports
under the republican protective tariff and
the present non-protective tariff. They
show that the farmer is hard hit by the
Wilson-G German law, and that is what ais
him today.
The sooner we get back to protection the
sooner will all American industries revive
and prosperity be restored. Jour-
