WILLIAM MCKINLEY, Of Ohio
FOR vICF-PREsIDENT-
GARRETT A. HOBART, Of New Jersey
ELECTION NOVEMBER 3, 1895.
Bryan is not SO much dark horse as an
offcolored colt.
The issue of the campaign is to turn
down the fools.
Now then register at once and get ready
for the campaign.
Bryan will get no congratulations signed
Grover Cleveland.
And the lone fisherman of Buzzards
Bay-what of him2
The people will vote for statesmen and
not for blatherskites.
Conservative Democrats will find room
for them in Republican ranks.
What will it profit Democracy to gain
Nebraska and lose New York;
There are some Democrats left in spots,
but there is no National party of them any
more.
Democracy will have nothing to ratify
but wind, and it ought to be able to unite
on that.
Whitney, Pattison, Russell and Hill will
find European trip very pleasant this
summer.
The Democratic donkey can say with
truth: 1.-THE convention was ruled by my
brothers."
Now then we shall see whether any boy
orator can lead the Populists into fool
movement.
Charles A. Dana is Democrat, but he is
no fool. and is not following the party
flock this year.
The Democratic Presidential candidate
is better than his party, inasmuch as his
record is shorter.
Bryau's oratory will go through the
Democratic platform like a windstorm
through fogbank.
The Democratic ticket makes Republican
victory sure, so get into the procession
and help to whoop it up.
A promise of free silver is but poor
gliding for such bitter pill as free-trade
tariff and ruined industries.
The only thing in New York that
Democracy can claim is Tammany Hall,
and they are welcome to that.
After the meddling and muddling of this
administration who can trust the Demo-
cratic party on any platforms
The country was never more in need of
strictly business administration, and
Democracy offers it wiudbag.
Silver Dick Bland and Farmer Boies can
sympathiEe with one another in mourning
the ingratitude of Democracies.
The Chicago platform is weak, but it
may be strong enough for the light weight
ticket that has been placed on it.
We said this WOULD be campaign of
business against fiapdoodle, and Bryan's
nomination fulfiils the prophecy.
Turning down Cleveland at Chicago this
year shows a repentant spirit for having
elected him, but 1t doesn't atone for it.
The result may have been due solely to
Bryan's cyclonic oratory, and then. again
there may have been dicker with AIT.

We will be much obliged if the Demo.
cratic party will circulate the speeches of
Altgeld and Tillman as campaign dozen.
ments.'
Bryan may possibly carry Nebraska. but
we take notice he did not do it when he
was a candidate for Senator against
Thurston.
The transit Mississippi section of the
Union has at last Presidential candidate.
but he is only little one and won't be in
the count.
There are almost enough conservative
Democrats in this country to elect McKin-
ley, and they are declaring for him all
over the Union.
1t will be noted that the Chicago plat.
form gives nothing but snub to those who
wish work and wages and a home market
for home goods.
The deficit party remains true to The de-
felt tariff and gives the country another
proof of its incapacity to learn anything
even from experience.
We can gauge the capacity of the Chi
cago convention by the fact that so shall
low rhetorician as the boy orator of the
Platte could intoxicate it with the ex-
uberance of his verbosity and send it reel
ing of Its feet.
