KNOX ooUNTY FAKMERs.
They visit the Republican Nominee at
His Home.

His Home.
CANTON, Aug. 24.-At l O'Clock seven
carloads of Knox county farmers reached
Canton by special Pennsylvania train.
A local farmer headed the parade with a
load of new-mown hay. They were a
sturdy looking set of men, and gave
cheer after cheer as their chairman ap-
peared on the step at the Mckinley
residence. H. D. Crichfield, of Mount
Vernon, son of Knox county farmer,
made neat presentation.
McKinley's response was repeatedly
interrupted with applause. He said the
hardships of the American farmer came
from too many competitors over the
whole world. They also came from the
fact that the farmers best customers,
the American worhlngmen, had been
largely out of work during the past three
years. The Republican party could not
dispose of its competitors, but it could
help the American market for the
farmer. The home market under pro-
lection consumed 50 per cent of the
American agricultural products. He
said the home market was the best mar
ket, and the factory was the farmers
best friend.
Prosperity had come to the farmers
through the factories, and not through
the mines. He said he had no fear of
the farmers vote. In 1892 they stood
firmly and Loyalty against free trade.
They would stand against free trade and
free silver this year. To lower the STAN
dard of value would not give the farmer
any actual gain, but panic of free
trade and the free silver policy would
add to the hardships of the last three
years. He said free silver would not
cure over-production OF farm products or
under consumption of the American
people, Free silver would not close the
wheat fields of Russia, India or Argen-
tina. The farmer as well as the work
ingman wanted his pay in an honest
dollar.

SO Says Gomez the Insurgent Com
mander.
New YORK, Aug. 24.-The Herald this
morning published the following corre-
spondence from Santa Ana, Cuba, under
date of August 18th:
In speaking of the attitude of the
United States toward Cuba and the pos
sibilIty of President Cleveland recognlz-
ing the belligerency of the insurgents,
General Gomez said:
ST have forbidden the discussion of
the subject in my camp. For weeks men
fairly held their breaths waiting word
from Washington. 1t was waste of
time. Long ago 1 realized we must
can win our independence while the ex-
ecutive of the United States is consider
ing the.question of our possible belliger-
ency.
81 have no doubt of the sympathy of
the American people as a whole. In
fact, have the best evidence of their
good will. Many Americans are fight
ing in my ranks, and good, true men
they are. The chief of our artillery is
an American from Boston and no brayer
man lives
"How long do you think the war will
continue?''
81 prefer not to appear in the guise of
prophet. leave that to General
Weyler,' was the response.
''You are confident of success in the
end?''
GAS certain of it as am that Cuba is
an island, but must fight the battle my
own way. I know that we are called
guerrilas; that some people marvel be-
cause we prefer to fight from ambush,
but we are in this war to win. Ammu-
milton is scarce and think know how
to use it to advantage. Cuba is ours
now. 1t Is true the SpanIards hold most
of the seaport cities and some of the in
terror towns, but in the latter they are
getting very tired. We don't let them
stop much. and now we will zee that
they do less. The city of Puerto
Principe is hungry now; Guaranino is
suffering and Victoria de las Tunis is
nearly starved. Sabancu is abandoned.
The cattle of Camaguey and Santiago de
Cuba provinces are out of the reach of
the Spaniards, and from this time forth
there will be no more carrying of fruit
and vegetables into the cities by
paci6cos. We will have no more
pacifcos. Every man on this island
must be for Cuba or for Spain.
81 have requested the French coffee
growers who did not care to take up
arms for the common liberty to take a
little vacation in France. Some have
obeyed. 1t will not be for long. If they
remain unmolested by my forces Spain
will grow suspicious and destroy their
estates as she has those of the Ameri-
cans whom / tried to protect
"Will there this coming fall any ex-
ceptions made in your order against
grinding cane?''
"Not one, replied the general
''Nothing will be tolerated which will
yield revenue to Spain. Lack Of money
is Spain weak point, and am going tc
take advantage of it.. 1 have no desire
to destroy property, but Cuba must be
free. But will have no more of barter

rHAr STEFAN SHIP lime.

1t is indeed refreshing news beyond
the selfish fact that IL will increase the
railroad business In Las Vegas, that
the Atchison company contemplates a
line Of ocean steamers connecting our
western ports with Japan. There has
been a little danger Of late that the
United States would wait to long and
that some other power would step in
and carry away the plums In the
Pacific ocean trade, as England has 10
the Atlantic. Since the war OF the
rebellion America has paid England
$500, 600, 900 ocean subsidies and for
carrying the mail, and it will not be
surprising il that country will soon
seek to control the trade on the Pacific
ocean also.
1t will not be a great while until the
traus- Siberian railroad shall be com
pleted aud then, there will certainly be
another move toward q better steam
ship service on the Pacific, as the
service Is now inadequate to any
increased traffic The old Pacific
mail company continues its line across
to China and Japan, but there 10 not a
first. class ship in the feet. The Ameri-
can company runs a line OF picked-up
steamers from Tacoma to Japan and
China, but there is not q really first
class ship in that fl set, and all the rest
of the trade, except what a few ships
that run to Australia carry, is under
foreign flags. President RipleY's
scheme may be the nucleus OF greater
enterprises IN this direction. The
United States government should lend
all possible encouragement to such ef-
forts. The Oriental Countries are just
beginning to awaken from a thousand
years lethargy. Their trade will be-
come an important factor in this coun-
try in the next quarter of a century.

portunities for the Pacific ocean

ON TRIAL BY THE PEOPLE.

Mr.. Bryan's speech 10 Lincoln, on
Saturday evening, put the national
situation in the clearest and simplest
form, says the Rocky Mountain News
The republican party has been entrust.
ed with power on promise that certain
policies will restore prosperity. Mr..
Bryan and other free coinage advocates
believe that those policies will fail to
accomplish that end. The test will be
made during the coming years, and the
people two and four years hence will
be called upon to give their verdict.
10 order that the verdict may be rend-
cred wisely and with accurate knowl.
edge of the case, Mr.. Bryan suggests
that clubs organized for the study Of
political questions shall meet once a
month or oftener, and shall take into
consideration in q regular and syste.
matte way the progress Of public
events. He is perfectly willing that
those who are opposed to free coinage
shall follow the same course, basing
upon his confidence in the final good
sense Of the American people, the con-
viction that study of this kind will
secure the triumph Of bi-metallism in
future elections.
Such would indeed be q campaign OF
education. No accusation can be made
that 1t is an appeal to sectionalism, or
an incendiary attempt to infame the
passions OF the masses. II is, on the
contrary, an appeal purely to reason
and judgment. 1t means that a full
and fair trial shall be given the re-
publican proposals, and that the peo-
pie ia their calm and sober Judgment,
and not during the heat Of a campaign,
shall pronounce whether those plans
have succeeded or failed. The propo-
eition is Ia the broadest sense an ap.
peal to the people In accordance with
the truest principles Of popular govern
ment.

A MANCHESTER photographer relates
that he recently took q photograph of
a child who was apparently in good
health and had a clear skin. The
negative showed the face to be thickly
covered with an eruption. Three days
afterwards the child was covered with
spots due to prickly heat. The camera
had seen and photographed the erup-
ton three days before it was visible to
the naked eye. 1t is said that another
case of a similar kind is recorded,
where a child showed spots on his
portrait which were invisible on his
face a fortnight previous to an attack
Of smallpox. Probably this explains
why some people never get a good
photograph of themselves.
