MCKINLEY AND HOBART.

All are pleased with the selection
Of Mckinley and Hobart-or more
propefiy speaking, all are pleased
with the ticket who believe in
protection to "A merica and all that
is American Mr.. Mckinley repre-.
sents more than any other one man
the interests OF the millions or toll
ers Of this country, and he is their
ideal candidate.
He is considered as being sound
on the financial question, and we
believe he is as sound in this as he
is in all other things of political
nature. Mckinley is the peoples
candidate and the people rightly re-
fused to allow the politicians to
nominate another than Mckinley.
Under the guidance of Mckinley we
predict this country will grow in
in wealth and in infu-
ence, as no country ever did before.
and Hobart are the ideal
Of the toiling masses and
they will be elected as the champions
Of the peoples rights at home and
abroad, and the depressed Of all ma
lions will find a friend at court after
ihe fourth of next March.

whitney's Hopeless Task.

Mr.. W. G. Whitney and his East.
ern associates will not secure the
approval of the "existing gold stand
ard" at Chicago, but they will give
the country a vivid sense of the diff
ference between the two parties.
The Republican party is for gold
gold values and the gold standard.
The Democratic party is for silver.
silver values and the silver standard.
The supporters of sound money
went to St. Louis to secure aflima-
tive support and approval of the use
OF gold, silver and paper on basis
of gold values and they got it. Mr.
Whitney and his associates 90 to
Chicago TO oppose free silver coin
age. They will not succeed. III
they did, the result would be alto
getheT different from that secured at
St Louis. The utmost Mr.. Whit
ney proposes is to prevent declar-
alton for free silver. Neither he
nor President Cleveland dream Of
asking declaration for gold, gold |
values or the gold standard, 1t
would be madness.
The "existing gold standard" was
voted at St. Louis 8 to /. The move-
ment for it was guided, managed and
directed by the friends of the chosen
candidate Of the party, William Nc
Kinley. The plank which pro-
nounced for it came from Canton.
The demand for the plank had be-
hind it the Mckinley delegates. The
same rising party tide which swept
Mckinley over all obstacles and CD
position lifted the party up to the
incorporating assertion ofthe tex
listing gold standard
Mr. Whitney leads minority. As
far as the Democratic party IS con-
cerned, he represents faction He
is backed by a sectional movement. q
No party tide is behind him. No '
great organized majority aids him. t
He has the New York Democracy I
with him. Some Eastern States are b
behind him. One South il
ern State, Florida, is for gold. Mr.. t.
is that way. This is much =
particularly in Philadelphia. In d
Chicago it is less. After the con- al
Vention it will be seen to be moth
ng. c
Mr.. Whitney may plead as he ia
will. He will fail. In the face of hi
he splendid declaration at 81. Louis f.
lothing can avail but a declaration
or gold. Anything short of that Ii
will be straddle. 1t will not sat -
sly the country. 1t will not stand :.
Or sound money. For once the cur "a "a
ency issue is clear. The Republi- a.
an party is for the existing gold ~
tandard" If the Democratic party - -
J not for that it is for silver. ", ~
Mr.. Whitney's errand is hopeless. s
lie may modify the declaration for "a
liver. He cannot secure a deciar-
lion for the gold standard If Mr.. WI
Ihitney and Mr.. Harrity want that sn
icy must vote for Mckinley IN

When your stomach begins to trouble you,
it needs help. The help it needs, is to d.
Rest your food, and, until it gets it, you
won't have any peace. Stomach trouble is
very distressing, very obstinate, very dan
gerous. Many of the most dangerous d.
seases begin with simple Indigestion. The
reason is that indigestion lnot-digestion'

allows disease germs to attack it. The anti

does this by strengthening the stomach by

er's bolt from the St. Lonis Convention
hes been areatly lessened BY the persistent
efforts of the Popusts to push Mr.. Teller
forward as a candidate for the Democratic |
nomination OF course those who know
Senator Teller's high minded devotion to
principle, do not for a moment believe that
he IS taking any handin this business, but
there can be no doubt that in giving ad-
vance notice of his intention to do Just
what he did, he put it in the power of men
less high minded to make use of him as. a
tool to attempt to carry out certain schemes
of their own,nor that those men are taking
advantage of their opportunity There
isn't the slightest probability that the Dem
ocrats will nominate Senator Teller for
President, aud he would increase the re-
spect with which he is generally regarded
if he would put an end to the game by for
bidding the use of his name before that con-
vendon.
About the oldest thing in the present
political situation is that although Mr.
Cleveland said in his broadside against the
silver Democrats, published last week, that
lis only desire hereaftenwas to be private

leld in Washington that he is willing to Il
iccept the Democratic nomination again,

though it was known that his friends
were making strong fight for him Hon
Garret A. Hobart is not so well known to
the rank and file of the party outside of his
own State as he is to the leaders with whom
he has been associated since he became

every sense Of the expression He has
wide experience as a political manager,
which he will put to good use during the
campaign, as it has already been arranged
that he shall have charge of the business

would take New Jersey under his own
wing and to repeat The Republican triumph
which put Gnggs into the Governors
