PATRIOTISM, PROTECTION
and PROSPERITY.
FOR PRESIDENT
WILLIAM MCKINLEY, Of Ohio
FOR vICF-PREsIDENT-
GARRET A. HOBART, Of New jersey
ELECTION NOVEMBER 3. 1896.
Bryan can only say of his invasion OF
the East: 81 came, saw and decided to
quit
1t seems Bryan has decided to let Sewall
and Watson fight ii out between them
selves.
There is no longer a Solid South, and
Bryan hasn't even that much of base to
build on.
You never hear of Business Mans
Bryan Club nor of a Workingman's Free
trade Club.
The Democrats will never dodge the
tariff issue until they succeed in lodging
the country.
Paying wages in 50-cent dollars may
suit the free-traders, but it won't suit the
workingmen.
Since the action taken by the gold Dem
ocrats of Kentucky We may count that
State for Mckinley.
If there were nothing else to drive Popu-
lists from the Bryan camp. Democratic
trickery would do it.
There is really no chance for Democrats
this year. The people are not going to
vote for another panic.
The gold Democrats of Kentucky have
not put up much of a platform, but it will
do as a roost for Carlisle
The unemployed men of this country
demand work and wages, and Democracy
tells them that isn't an issue.
After three years of Democratic condi-
tions, what the average man needs most is
chance to earn some money.
Sewall's son has come out for Mckinley,
and it seems the old man cannot carry
his family, much less his State.
The best campaign literature of the can
vass has been furnished by Mckinley in
his short speeches to workingmen.
THE SUNDAY CALL of to morrow will be
full of good things, and the way to make
sure of getting it is to leave orders for it
to-day.
So far from talking this year about
Opening the worlds market" the aver
age Democrat would walk around a block
to avoid hearing of it.

The Democrats were as enthusiastic for
Cleveland four years ago as they are now
for Bryan, and in four years more they
will be denouncing Bryan as they now
denounce Cleveland.
The plan of fusion devised between the
Democrats and the Populists of this State
puts a very thin coating on the Sewall
pill, and it will take a very tough-throated
Populist to swallow it.
When the Democrats enacted the Will
son tariff they put tariff issue before this
country that will stay there as long as
that mill-closing, deiicit-making measure
remains on the statute books.
There never was a statesman in this
country in closer touch with workingmen
than William Mckinley, nor one more
keenly interested IN advancing their work,
their wages and their welfare.
The difficulty in the way of fusion be-
tween Democrats and Populists is that the
Democrats wish to be trusted in every
thing and the Populists know them too
well to trust them in anything.
The veterans of the Grand Army may be
relied upon to know what is the best for
the Republic they fought to save, and
nearly every one of them is supporter OF
Mckinley and the Republican party.
Ass Boston papers are noted for the
classic accuracy of their epithets, it is
worth while calling attention to the state
ment of the Herald of that city that
Bryan's New York speech was "a fzzle."
Four years ago the Democrats promised
that if Cleveland were elected wheat would
rise to 81 25 per bushel, and as it is now
worth so cents the farmers can very easily
figure out just what Democratic promise
is worth.
From all parts of the West and South
come reports of tn, unwillingness of DEM
ocrats to deal fairly with the Populists
and the Teller Republicans, and as a con-
sequence the chances of fusion grow
weaker every day.
A new weekly. The Lsnguist, has just
been launched in this City, and is to be
published in English, Spanish, Italian
and Slavonian. The initial mum Der, which
has Just been issued, presents good ap-
pearanee and gives promise of developing
into an important and useful periodical to
3 large number of readers.
