Plans have been perfected for a
thorough and novel canvass of the
state by the Republican nominees. 1t
will be joint canvass, ali the state
candidates participating. They will
make a thorough tour of the state. visit
ing each congressional district and will
be joined by the several congressional
nominees; also by the candidates for
assemblymen and the state senate
The tour will probably begin in the
northern part of the state, covering the
Ninth and Tenth districts first and
working down through the state. Each
meeting will be made a grand demon
stration and every effort made to secure
a large turnout of people.
In the September Review of Reviews
the editor discusses different phases of
the Presidential campaign-especia
the revolt of the gold-standard Demo-
Gratis, the attitude of Eastern wage
earners toward Mr.. Bryan, and the
spread of free-silver doctrine among
the farmers. Another important topic
of discussion in the department of
"The Progress of the World" is Lord
Sallsbury's Venezuelan proposition, in
connection with the general scheme for
a permanent tribunal of arbitration.
The editor also covers most of the
striking developments of the month in
British and European politics.
The Democrats who are now blowing
on the street corners for free silver, in
the last campaign were supporting the
following platform adopted by the
Democratic state convention:
eve maintain that the true interests of
the people demand sound, honest and
stable money, composed of or based on
redeemable in gold or silver coin of
equal intrinsic value. We therefore
oppose the project of unlimited coinage
of silver dollars of less commercial
value than gold dollars, as undemo-
cratic, dishonest and specially hurtful
to the farmers and laboring classes, the
first and most defenceless victims of
unstable money and a fuctuating cur
rency."
How devoted to principle these dear
silverites must be!
