To Ny Patrons:

1t gives me much pleasure
to announce that MIR. NJ. r.
COUNTER, one of the most
skilled watchmakers ever in
these Islands, is now managing
my repairing department. No
watch is so complex in its
mechanism but we can give per-
feet satisfaction in correcting
the evils to which watches are
heir. Watches are delicate
things to handle. We guarantee
that they will receive no injury
at our hands and will leave
our store in perfect repair.
Respectfully,

ME- Lodge also deprecated the at
telhpt to create jealousy between the
west and the East. Their prosperity
was ours, and our prosperity was theirs.
Inc main question was that of nation

forward and loaned us money They said ::

national credit that we must not lose.
Those who would bring about the poll

You know what the Democratic party

Mr.. Lodge then went on to say tha6

yours is repaired
II fear ours is wrecked beyond re-
pair,,'' said the Democrat as he sadly
shook his head.
. Col. F. N. Dow presided, introducing
first Hon. Herbert M. Heath of Augusta.
MI. Heath received royal welcome. He
said:
Standing here on the night of February
18th it WAS my privilege to say to my
fellow Republicans: Better defeat than
victory with dishonor." Since then
ner of Republication have been written
the immortal words of James 6. Blaine
dare to do right and leave the rest to
Infinite Wisdom" At the mighty
gathering called at St. Louis to deter
mine the policy of the great Republican
party we learned courage under the lead
ership of that Prince of Courage, the
great speaker of the national house.
(Great applause. To him give credit
and in your giving spare not to his friend
and ours the gifted senator from the
grand old commonwealth. The same
lOyd1fy u4oV bAkOo6h Aovo WO SoFC w UuO
statesman whose fame makes famous
your beautiful city by the sea we give to-
night to the soldier-statesman of the
West. (Applause.)
We have no apologies to make for our
platform. Its stimbers are bolted with
with the pillars of national honor and
honesty between man and man. We
made the issue. We invite d the combat.
We strip for the conflict with full conf
dence in the honor, the honesty, the in
teIligence, the patriotism of the Am eri-
can people. The same patriotism that
swept from the hills Of New England
and the rolling praiIies of the West to de-
fend the American flag still lives to pro-
tect and defend American honor. GAP
plause.)
Because gre at political party has for.
saken the faith of Jefferson and Jackson
and wandered of to worship strange
gods, the hour has not yet come to dis
pair Of the republic. Once before the
same great party broke upon the rock OF
conscience, but the ship OF state sailed
on. Democrats and Republicans manned
the yards with Douglass and Lin
ooln at the helm. Then divided Dem
ocracy made possible the perpetuity OF
| the American union. Again will the
patriotism of true Democracy stand with
the party of Lincoln and Grant in the
defence of American honor and of the
American home. (Applause.)
We are but repeating history. Pardon

| moment the role of an Instructor.
| recognize the undeniable truth that in
this grave problem there are too many
unknown and unknowable factors to war

cally by his .ipse dixit, save of course

Said Senator Dumas of France in 1873:
'Tnose who approach these questions for
the first time decide them at once. Those

National Honor NIenaced by Bryan-Bad
Money Not Good for Anyone, and
Especially Bad for the Nation.
The Republican meeting last evening
at City hall was most suspicious open
ing of the campaign. Three thousand OF
more people crowded the great hall and
made its ceiling echo again and again
as it applauded the eloquent exhortation
of Lodge and Heath.
Many Democrats were present 81 feel
as If l were in the wrong church" said
an eminent one to the Republican beside
him.
"But you may stay in ours until

etc. So mankind settled down upon cop
per, silver and gold. These became the
Instruments of exchange. Money is val
liable, really only for its intrinsic value.
1t Is not wealth. A man may be worth
million dollars, yet he may mot have
thousand actual dollars. But he has
houses or mills. The test of money is
what it will buy.
There are only few ways in which
you can get money. You can beg it.
steal it, borrow it, inherit it, or ex
change labor product for it. If you beg
it you want to get good money of course !;
if you steal it you of course do not wish
to run the risk of state prison for bad
money, and if you are to exchange for
it your labor or your products, you
certainly want in return as good money
as there is. (Applause.)
Now at the present moment there are
very hard times. ! will not explain
about the causes. 1t is sufficient to say
that the hard times and the Democratic
administration came in together. AS
usual in hard times, people are looking
out for remedies, and the very old one
of deprecated money has been resurrect-
ed. There is nothing new in it. The
soyereigns of old, to help their treasures
out of difficulties, used to cut the shll-
ling in two and try to make the half
pass for rs much as the whole. Now, in
this century our people, who are the
sovereigns, are asked to endorse half
rate dollar. The proposition is too lis
honest to be entertained. (Applause)
Mr.. Lodge next explained how, with
the free coinage of silver, our gold, be-
ing more valuable, would leave the cir
culation as has always been the case
under similar circumstances in the
past.
Was there anything to make us believe
that the free coinage of silver was GO
lug to raise wages?

AN EXPERIENCE LONG AGO.

AN EXPERIENCE LONG AGO.
In 1899 the British Ambassador wrote
home giving some facts of interest In
1916, when our standard was gold. farm
labor was SIG month, exclusive of
board a mechanic received 50 day {;
-four was $40 barrel; meat cents q
pound. In 1922 we had gone to silve
basis, and farm labor had fallen to Sc
q month the meohahios' pay had sbeen
decreased one half; -four was down
to S. barrsl and meat went down to
5 cents pound.
Now, those were not glorious times
and wages fell with the departure of
gold.
Now we have q silver neighbor to the
south. The silver men tell US that Mex
leo is very prosperous, and they want us
to be like the Mexicans. (Laughter)
Mr.. Lodge then read. from a report by
Consul Crittendsn, giving the facts
about street railroad in Mexico, where
the owners get six or seven per cent on
their investment, but the conductors.
etc., receive from 30 cents to dollar
in silver day. And the Mexican silver
dollar is worth only 60 cents in our
money.
Now If those who are interested in
atreet railroad labor, like that situation,
of course free silver is what they want.
But If they think is degradation.
they want to come with US, as think
they will do. {Applause.)
MI. Lodge then spoke Of the value of
good credit to nation. 1t is the great
est weapon of defense that nation has.
Now these Democrats propose to have
free silver in order to relieve us of de-
pondenoe upon England Think of it'll
That form the party that propose to give
over to England the priceless possession
of our home market! The higher the
credit of the United States the greater
its Independence. 1t is the man whose
credit Is poor who ia the slave of his
creation. The silver countries of the South
are in the hands of the money lender
ten times more than the United States.
And in order to keep our credit good,
give US revenue enough to run the gov
eminent. (Applause.) Enable us to do
our own manufacturing; help American
shipping; have a surplus SO as to pay the
national debit That is business. Gap
plause) But do not try to effect some
thing by the miserable plan of debasing
the currency.
Free coinage of silver would mean the
DOUBLING OF THE PRICES
of products which would mean that the
laborer would have to pay moresfor his
living, while his wages would not rise
oorrespondingly. This was proven in the
days of our paper money, when the aver
age price of commodities rose SO per
cent, and the wages of labor only 40 per
cent.
These same men paraded Massach usetts
few years ago shouting "Down with
the robber barons," meaning the manu-
facturers. Well, thoy threw down the
robber barons. The mills are silent.

After IL years of advancing prosperity
under Republican rule and four years of
slow death under Democracy it asks the
American people to sit no longer under
the upas tree that has paralyzed national
industry.
What says Mainep What say her roll
ing rivers eager to turn the wheels of
industry? What her hills that await the
clicking of the hammer and the creak of
the derrick? What her forests once busy
with the music of the woodsman's axeP
What her rock bound coast whence COM
merce yearns to sweep the seas under the
flag of reciprocity? What her farms
seeking wealth in labor's busy mart?
What her people liberty loving, God
fearing the honest sons of an honest
ancestry? Let your votes for Llewel'yn
