He believes in the efficacy Of the display
of the stars and stripes. and to-day pro-
mulgated the following as "a suggestion
to good citizens
''The American flag has been in the pres
ent campaign the emblem or insignia of
national honor. Its influence has been for
great good in the cause of good people. Its
display in many places has been potent in
the advancement of the country's battle
for the maintenance Of its honor at home
and abroad. I. therefore. suggest that on
Saturday., October 81, all who intend to
vote on November 3. for the preservation
of our national honor. for sound money
and the advancement Of our peoples inter-
ests and general prosperity, display the
national colors at their homes, from their
places Of business and wherever they may
be seen. in order that voters whose hearts
are for their country may be strengthened
In their purpose. and those who are unde-
termined may periodically and inteligently
decide how best to perform their duty a.
citizens. NJ. A. HANNA"
1t Is further suggested at the headauart,
ers of the Republican national committee
that state, county and city committees and
clubs encourage the display of the national
flag on the last Saturday in the campaign
in every part of the country, especially on
residences, and have flags and bunting on
sale at convenient places for farmers and
others who live in localities remote from
popular trade points. and that the display
OF flags and bunting be continued until
after the national election.

A bomb was exploded in the Young Mems
Bryan Club last night when William j.
Thomson rendered his resignation as pres
ident of the club, and in a pointed letter
informed the members that he had severed
all connection with that organization. The
resignation of President Thomson had a
the members of the club were rendered
almost specchless when the same was read
by Secretary Toothaker.
Through tho resignation of Mr.. Thomson
the x rays are again turned on the schem-
ers of the Popocratic party and the meth
DDS employed by them are becoming more
pronounced in their craftiness and total
absence of honest purposes every day. In
fact. they demonstrate that they are in the
last throes of political death.
The Young Mems Bryan Club was or
ganized about two months ago by men,
bers of the various political parties who
believed in free silver. The club was to be
bipartisan. and its only object was to
be the furtherance of the cause of free
silver. Tho membership numbers about
2S5, out Of which 100 are Republicans. The
following is copy Of the obligation taken
by the members when the club was or
ganized:
1--WE, the undersigned, do hereby make
constitute and declare ourselves members
of the Young Mems Bryan Club; a club
non-partisan, and instituted for the fur
therance of the cause Of the free and un-
Is to l."
As soon as the club began to thrive under
non-partisan regulations. the attention Of
the Democratic and Populist central COM
mittees was attracted. To swing the club
for the county Popocratic ticket was
thought to be capital idea, and the fix
it, men were called into secret conference
and plans were outlined whereby the
game, it was thought, could be successfully
worked upon the young and unsophisticat-
ed members of the club.
W. II. Toothaker, whose son Scion is sec
retary of the club, was selected to do the
work. He was instructed TO proceed at
once and TO report to his political masters
the progress made by him each day. The
preliminary work was to see the Popocrat-
ic members of the club and put them
next to the scheme. This required but
little brain work, fortunately for Mr..
Toothaker. Accomplishing this so easily
ne Decathe pilnueu with enthusiasm and
joy, and approached President Thomson
and unfolded the plot to steal the club
The scheme was to have President Thom-
son appoint committee to confer with -
Democratic and Populist central commit
tees in view of indorsing the Popoeratic
county ticket. OF course, Toothaker had
seen certain political members of the club
and had made things all satisfactory with
them by promising them anything from
secretary of the treasury at Washington
down to minister ta Liberia. These men,

There never has been a time when the
citizens of this city can better carry out
the rule of "patronize home industries" than
now. This city has stores which can, and
do, compare favorably with any in the
neighboring cities. This is especially true
in the dry goods and clothing stores. The
big Weinberg department store has one
of the largest stocks in the state, and has,
by persistent energy, attracted large
numbers to his place Of business. This
can be truthfully said of his present big
SALE which is now going on. He is Offering
a better class of goods at lower prices than
ever before shown to the bargain hunt
ers" of the consolidated cities. Mr.. Wein-
berg will continue this sale during tho
present week. See his ad. in this i0sue

INDEPENDENCE.
More Gang Methods-Boss OXEN Uses
His once to Stop Free Speech
Tries Gag Rule.

Republican voters Of Blue township have
been left out in the cold In the matter Of
securing the court house for the purpose Of
holding public meetings. Peanut politicians
of the Democratic party hit upon the idea
some. days ago that 1t would be q fine
piece of political work to erectually shut
or free speech at the court house by max
bly, room during the balance of the cam
paisn. Republicans who have made at
tempts to secure the upper room Of tho
court house for public meetings have met
with q refusal Of the same. and, upon IN
quiry, 1t has developed the well laid scheme
to effectually shut of the Republicans by
making the claim that the hall has been
engaged by the Democrats. Inquiry. was
made yesterday as to meetings. and Re-
publican applicants were met with the
rebun that the Democrats had secured tbs
hall for the entire week.
