PLEASANT READING FOR M'KIN-
LEY DEMOCRATS.

In n speech made to body of negroes
who called upon him Tuesday, Major
Mckinley said: Gentlemen, l am glad
to see vou-I am glad to hear that now,
as always. you will vote the Republican
ticket as YOU should do, because Abra-
ham Lincoln set you free and made
YOU the political and civil equals Of the
white man."
to the few Democrats who declare that
they prefer voting for Mckinley to
BRYAN. Nobody objects TO the negro
voting the Republican ticket IL he sees
propor. but when Mckinley puts the
obligation upon him to do so on the
grounds that Mr.. Lincoln set him free.
and that therefore he owes his allegiance

stop fighting and go back OF her own
accord into the Union"
The Republicans have worked this same
old, plea for all II is worth in former
campaigns and II was hoped that IT had
about played out. 1t seems. however,
that 1t is left TO Mckinley to revive 1T.
What good II will do him remains to be
