remember in 1864, after his dreadful
wound, we did not suppose we would
have him with us again-we have with
us today that brave soldier comrade, Col.
Russell B. Hastings. [Applause.1 I
was glad to note in tho eloquent speech

cries For Mckinley, tool Nobody
could have doubted that, knowing the
metal from which this OLD regiment was
made.
My comrades, you are just MS loyal to
country now as you were loyal to country

better to open up the mills of the Unit

cheering and cries of "You are right"l
Washington told us over and over again
that there was nothing so important
to preserve as the nations honor. He
strength was the public credit, and that
the best method of preserving 1t was to
use it as sparingly as possible. No gov
ernment can get on without 1t and pre-
serve its honor No government is great
enough to get on without it. In the
darkest days of the revolution, Robert
Morris, it's financier. went to one of his
friends in Philadelphia after he had in
volved himself as n debtor for large
sum of money on account of the gov
ernment and said to him: 81 must have

name and my honor" Quick came the
reply: "Robert, thou shalt have it,

now the country's honor has been our

Lincoln pledged it, when, in time of
war, we issued paper money. He said:
Every dollar of that money shall be
made as good as gold" And it was left to
Rutherford B. Hayes, your old colonel,
as President of the United States, to ex--
ecute the promise in the resumption of
applause.l When Robert Morris said
that they had nothing to give but their
honor there was behind his word 3,000-
600 of struggling patriots. Today behind
the nations honor are 70,000,000 of free
men, who mean to keep this government

Rich and the Poor.

Here now comes up this thoroughly
un-American question of the rich against
the poor. Some criticism is already lev
eled at this movement because those en-
gagged in it are representatives of proper
ty in their respective localities. 1t is
characterized as the rich mans move
ment. Property is banding together to
carry its ends and those ends are mimi
cal to the wage-earner and the farmer.
This simply is criminal nonsense. There
is not the slightest warrant in reason for
any such statement. The paramount is
sue of the campaign is n business ISSUE
1t relates to the very. life blood of bust
ness-whether that blood shall be puri-
poverished. Surely that proposition
reaches and interests everybody And
another point. What authority is there
for the assumption that in moving in his
own interests the business man is NOV
ing against the interests of other men !?
Under free government all interests
are allied The business man cannot
prosper if the wage-earner and the farm
er do not. 1t is impossible. If the crops
fail and the mines and factories are idle,
so that the farmer and the wage-earner
have no money, how can the merchant.
or the banker, or the manufacturer
thrive? Where is business to come
from? On the other hand. if times are
good and ;G9nfidence prevails, all feel the
benefits alike. Not all in equal degree.
never has been. That never will he. But
to the extent of their stake in the game,
when the winnings are large. the farmer
and the wage-earner get their share along
with the business Washington
Star.

Japan and Mexico.

"If silver is such an abominabIe curse
why are Japan and Mexico booming with
prosperity?"-J. X. Amber. Mich.
No one says that silver IS an
"abominable curse" The project of 90
ing to the silver standard is one which
would bring on an era of panic and
financial disaster; but to say this
project is bad is not to say silver is n
"curse." Try to apply reason to the
subject, not prejudice and emotion. The
question is plain one OF business and
only common sense is needed to settle it
rightly.
You say Japan and Mexico are "boom-
ing with prosperity" How do YOU
know this? Prosperity is an extremely
relative term. In both countries the
wages of the working class are so low
that an American workingman would
deem them starvation wages. He could
not live. Mexico is far more prosperous
than she has been for many years. but
it is because, under President Diaz,
there has been peace. The country has
not been the scene of chronic revolution,
as it was up to a few years ago. Wages
are very low, and manufacturing is
profitable. Japan is just adopting the
use of machinery in manufactures. and
is yet far behind us in everything
