CANTON, Ohio. Oct. S.-Cnn,on's
streets lnva been crowded all day.
Forty car loads OF cheering flag waving
finely uniformed and decidedly musical
visitors crowded about the Mckinley
home. Pennsylvania, Ohio and India
ians waved "Old Glory" by the hun
dreds as they marched from the Penn
Sy!Ylnia depot at noon. Indiana short
! ly afterward tried 10 out-do them IN
some, uniformed clubs Women
marched In good line from Jefferson
county. Pennsylvania.
By the middle OF the afternoon, Mar
kct stree. leading To the Mckinley
home, was filed with marchers. The
Cleveland First Voters. who came
last, kept the crowds on the sidewalks
cheering. When Major Mckinley re-
turned 10 his home from his drive 10
| his registering place this morning. he
found Lieutenant Governor Halle. OF
! Massachusetts, among his callers. Mrs.
| j. Ellen Foster. and daughter. of Iowa,
/, came shortly Afterwards from Chicago,
and took lunch at the Mckinley home.
Major Mckinley spoke TO the Indiana
delegation as follows:
Ny Fellow Citizens:-Your presence
from OeighOor!ns state bringing as
| you do. assurances OF devotion TO the
| Republican party and OF support 10 the
ticket this year. Is most gratifying TO
ne. | welcome You all to my city and
/ home Nnttr- k-4re
much. It means that you have deep
concern FOR the welfare OF your cOun-
try and believe that welfare will be
! best subserYed BY L Republican trS-
uIHph on the third day Of November.
/ II the financial plan advocated BY our
allied opponents be practical and
| sound, then the trainers OF our conSt!-
tuuon ldled away very much time, and
! wasted very much effort In providing
n plan for raising money TO conduct
the government. X this new departure.
! so-called, be IN any sense practical.
then we don't need any tariff laws In
this country. any tax laws, any custom
houses. or any tax collectors any
! where; because Il You can make money
out OK nothing by the mere breath OF
| Congress then II Is idle TO impose taxes
upon the people 10 bear the burden
and expense 0( conducting the govern
ment.
II by mere flat. whether II be nat to
the extent Of fifty cents or 10 the ex-
tent Of hundred cents: II the govern
ment by mere act OF Congress can
make money, then all the work Of
Washington and Jefferson, Hamilton
and Clay and all OF the iinanc!ers and
statesmen OF this country vas mere
idleness and folly. But their work was
not Idle Or foolish.
THE GOVERNMENT OF THE
UNITED STATES CANNOT CREATE
SOMETHING OUT OF NOTHING
AND THE MEN OR PARTY THAT
TEACHES THAT DoCTRIN
TEACHES \ FALSE. DOCTRINE.
WHY? THAT WHICH COSTS y MAN
NOTHING Is NOT WORTH MUCH,
Is IT? AND If THIS GOVERN
MENT CAN CREATE MONEY
! WITHOUT ANY COST TO ITSELF,
THEN THAT MONEY IS VALUE
LESS-VALUELESS FOR EVERY
! PURPOSE. IT Is VALUE IN MONEY
THAT MAKES IT \ STABLE ME-
DIUM OF EXCHANGE AMONG THE
PEOPLE. THE POINT I MAKE IS
THlS.MI FELLOW CITIZENS, THAT
WE MUST GET OVER THE IDEA
IN THIS COUNTRY THAT THE
GOVERNMENT MAKES MONEY.
THE GOVERNMENT GETS IT'S
MONEY JUST As THE CITIZEN
GETS HIS MONEY, BY GIVING
SOMETHING FOR IT.
The government raises four hun
dred millions OF dollars every year by
taxing Its people and the products Of
other people coming into the United
Suites and tn. latter is the policy ur
the Republican party. Wa do not be-
llcve that the government should max"
money by setting It's printing presses
and Its mints to work. but that the best
thing IT can do for It's revenues Is 10
put tarln on foreign products 81
every kind that COmrct" with AmcrI-
can products. and make that tariff
high enough, too to protect tn" AmcrI-
can producer. We simply want 10 OBJ
serve the law OF Representation, tn
look after ourselves. look after our In
dIvidual occupations ani cmplOymcnts
and after the American home which
your spokesman has so eloQucntly de-
sCIihcd. II lies at the foundation of
| society OF every community OF every
state. and Of the nation; and there
comes up from the plain American
home, tlrH homes OF the plain people of
the country. a sentiment fJr good gov
crnmcnt and good patriotism, such ns
can be found scarcely anywhere else
~ NEc WOIlu, MOI only, my lclIOW tItI-
zens, do We want Il good tnrirf. but we
want good money We want that mo-
ncy 10 b. worth one hundred cents to
the dollar. and We do not want 1t Ia be
worth Il penny less than one hundred
cents, We want II TO be- rs honest as
the government itself. We want II to hc
current everywhere In the world; We
want II respected everywhere. just MS
our ilag II respected everywhere. Then
We propose In this country tC maintain
n government by law and a govern
mcnt under law.
WE PROPOSE TO SUSTAIN puR-
TIC ORDER AND PUBLIC TRAN
GUILTY. AND STAND RY THE FED
EltAh JUDlCIARY-TliAT TRIDI'-
NAL WHICH is ORR ANCHOR OF
SAFETY IN EVERY TINE OF
TROUBLE.
Thel" never wlH an MIN that the Re-
publican party eyer had that did not
embrace 'tlin good OF oil the people.
There never waI a Republican purpose
TINT did not seek the honor ana lntrE.
rily Of the government of the United
Stn,cR There is one thing our old party
never did-lt never struck II blow eX.
ccpt for human freedom. 1t never had
o piirrus which wns no, patriotic. and
II stands this year, RS /: hus stood IN
all the years OF the past, for public safe
ty, for public honor, good morals, good
government, good laws uul for n conn.
