IMPROVEMENT IN THE B. & 0. r.
R.-There has been more than one
gratifying Improvement in the B. &
0, railroad since it passed into the
control of the present receivers. Not
to mention the changes which have
been made in the direction of a more
extensive and effective equipment of
the rolling stock of the road-par-
ticularly in the matter of freight
transportation-there have been sew
eral minor improvements which in
dictate better state of affairs. Par
ticularly worthy of commentator is
the increased regularity in the run
ming of trains. 1t is stated that dur
ing the months of April, May and
June there was no greater punctual-
ity in train movement on any rail
road system of the United States of
an equal amount of mileage. Sched-
ule time WAS maintained with only
the normal number of exceptions,
both in the passenger and freight
service, and in the West as well as
in the East.

l have been chairman of the New
Hampshire delegation to the National
Democratic Convention for twenty-four
years. | never cut Or scratched a ticket
in my life, but if the actions, the proceed
ings, the platform and the candidates of
that convention at Chicago are Democrat
ic, then have been dreaming and voting
wrong all my life. If | was the only man
in New Hampshire to do SO, would vote
against that ticket of ruin and repudia-
ton. | cannot see what the laboring men
are thinking of to be carried away with
this silver fallacy. They complain of low
wages now. God help them if the craze
is successful. New Hampshire Demo-
Gratis took no part in the nominations at
Chicago. They will take no part in help
ing elect them. l hope Democrats will
not be so foolish as to waste their votes
on third ticket, which will only help
Bryan. There is only one way to crush
this silver nightmare All other issues
all party affiliations. all personal feelings
must be put out of sight in one united
effort to save the honor of this country
which can but be triumphant. 1t is not
enough to defeat it. 1t must b. buried.

vance can have The New York Weekly
Tribune without extra charge. In remit

Tribune is acknowledged to stand without a
rival as the leading Republican paper of the
day. 1t is twenty page journal and gives
all the news of the world, while its different
departments, political news, editorial, ETC.,
make most valuable paper to all. The

to the UnitedStates mint with less than
ten dollars worth of silver and bring away
over eighteen dollars in coin is to make it
possible for the silver owner to rob the
Government of over eight dollars, which
is nothing less than robbing the people,
and how these people who do not own any
silver can believe that they can become
richer by being thus robbed is worse
enigma to solve than any the Sphinx ever
gave. The lower the condition of a race
the poorer their money, so we advance
from savagery, with its cowrie shell cur
rency, all the way up through iron and
bronze to gold.
l deeply sympathize with the poor farm
ers of our great prairies. Thousands of
them reached their land with hardly
enough to pay the freight on their house
hold goods. In some cases they had to
leave part of their furniture to pay for the
carriage. Thousands are living to- day on
flour, milk and few eggs. Their wants
are many and could they be satisfied would
make every industry start afresh, but
should they have their way that which
they now suffer would be intensified be-
yond precedent in this country On the
other hand, should honest money become
victorious untold ,nillions lie over the
water ready to be invested in this new
world. That would do more for our pros
perity than any other one thing. Let con-

! Campaign Song.

(Tune, 'Rallying Round the Flag.')
We are forming into line,
AS we've formed so oft before,
To battle for the honor of the nation.
The party of the people
Goes into the hight once more,
Battling for the honor of the nation
CHORUS.
Hurrah for Mckinley
The man who will save
The honor of the nation
From the anarchist and kDave:
Oh We're lighting for the flag
As we fought in sixty one,
Striving now as then to save the nation.
Oh the anarchists and knaves,
And regulators all,
Have formed into a Popocratic party
Its a brand new western product
1t will take an awful fall,
This wild and woody Popocratlc party
This silver agitation
About the crime of seVenty-three,
About which they're trying to fool the peo-
Is big hallucnation
And a humbug don't you see
They can't succeed in fooling half the peo-
pie.
When we earn one hundred dollars
If we get but tfty-three;
The cheap, dishonest, cheating, silver dol
lar
The workingman will forfeit
just forty-seven, you see;
That's the beauty of the silver dollar.
We want an honest dollar
Not dollar that is meant
To cheat the laborer who works for wages :;
The workingman will never get
just forty seven per cent.
OF the dollar that is his by rightful wages,
This Wilson-Gorman tariff
Puts on us heavy load;
Well do away with that at next election;
Wewant to see the farmer
Have the middle of the road,
We're going to vote for that at next cleo
ton.
For the interests of the people
We are striving as of old,
We want to see all kinds of labor prosper.
When Mckinley we've elected,
And our tariff laws are told,
Then will every kind of labor prosper.
