THERE was furry IN sugar last
week, and the sweet stuff dropped 2
cents pound.
The shame of Europe is in permit
ting the Turk to carry on his bar
barity against the ArmeIians.
The Democratic silver party will
hold its National Convention at Chi
cago On the 7th of July, and the new
silver party will hold its National
Convention at st. Louis on the 22nd
of July.
TEE Republican party at ST. Louis,
declared that all our silver and pa
per currency must be maintained at
parity - equality with gold,'
which meant that every paper dollar
and every silver dollar will be taken
at its face value.
The people were not prosperous
under Buchanan's administration.
They are not prosperous under Cieve-
lands administration, but they were
prosperous under all Republican ad-
ministrations. If you want harder
times. vote the Democratic ticket and
you'll get them But when the bad
times come, don't say you were not
warned.
IT was as a protective tariff cham
pion, that Mckinley became famous,
and it was the protl ,tive tariff senti-
ment in the Republican party that
forced his nomination, and it will be
the protective t-riff sentiment that
will elect him by grand majority.
The Democratic party have so reduc-
ed the government that the govern
ment cannot get enough money to
Iun the affairs of the nation without
issuing bonds. The lowering of the
tariff has tiattened all business ex-
cept the business of the foreign i'm
porter and jobber.
ALTGFLD of Illinois is the new Dem
Ocratic boss, who made the New
Workers whip around the stump so
that they can get themselves ready
to swallow the coming Chicago plat
form The Democratic ability at
swallowing is enor nous. They swal,
lowed Horace Greely with the hope
of gaining the election. and they now
swallow Altgeld with all his anarch.
Ism with the hope of winning the
coming election. Woe to the pros
perity of the United States for many
years, if the combination of Altgeld
Cleveland, Whitney & Co., win the
election.
THERE are people who admire the
dignifed man and woman more thar
the humorous man and woman. The
dignified people and the humorous
people are found to greater or less
degree in every community. The
two classes have found distinct rep
resentation at the head of the United
States Government. George Wash.
Igton represented the dignified type
of citizen: Abraham Lincoln repre-
sented the humorous type of citizen
In this community of Miffiintown the
digniied type of citizen is not popu-
lar. The humorous typ, of man
hood or womanhood is the type that
takes best here. Indeed many peo.
pie of this community go further
than the humorous. They admire
the clownish type of people best.
WHEN you talk about the Democ
racy up comes its record, and whep
you look at the record of the Dsmoc
racy on the money question. You are
convinced that they are no more car'
able of getting up and conducting q
safe money system than they are cap
able of running the government, and
you know kow they have run the
Government into the ground. They
gave the country the old wild cat
State Banks, and when the banks
failed under Buchanan, they oppos
ed the present safe money system
that the Republicans have put in op
GRAFTON, and then they changed front
and became the greatest of g. eenback
shouters, and then they turned their
coat and wanted to abolish the green
back. Then they wanted nothing
but gold, and Cleveland absolutely
issued gold bonds. Now they are
shouting for silver. What next from
the Democracy on the money ques
ton. Well party that is such a
confirmed weather cock on the money
