What the Republican Party Stands For.

"nat inc hepupuchn IbFty Sthuub rors
The Republican party stands today,
as it has always stood, opposed to the
continuation of an industrial policy
which cripples industry at home, robs
labor Of its rewards and supplies INSULT
cient revenue to run the government. 1t
stands opposed to any change in our
financial policy which would put US
upon a silver basis and deprive us Of
the use of both gold and silver as cur
rency. Involved in the contest, too, 10
that fundamental as to whether we are
to have government by law. The Re-
publican party stands now, az always,
for the maintenance of law and order
and domestic tranquility. William
Mckinley.

Greatest Sufferer From DECEASED Money.
No one suffers SO much from cheap
money as the farmers and laborers.
They arc the first to feel its bad effects
and the last to recover from them. This
has been the uniform experience Of all
countries, and here as elsewhere the
poor and not the rich are always the
greatest sufferers from every attempt to
debase our money.-William Nick inley
