WHY THEY OBJECT.

The Popocrats %strenuously object to
the business men Of the country hav-
ing any say in the settlement of the
financial question. They are too much
interested in sound money and a stable
currency; they are too anxious for a
revival of a business to be misled by
the wild and visionary projects of the
Nebraska fakir. It is reasonable to
suppose that they are as much con-
cerned about the welfare of the coun-
try, that they have as intelligent a
comprehension of its needs and are as
able to form intelligent conclusions as
to the policy and action requisite to
meet these needs as any other class. of
American citizens, and especially that
class that make politics a trade that
they may serve themselves at the peo-
pies expense.
From self interest If not from patri.
otism, and uninfluenced by partisan
feeling, business men study economic
questions seriously and thoroughly.
They must have business sense to sue.
coed. The road to wealth does not lie
through a maze of ~fallacies and va
carries.
Business men know that their own
good fortune depends upon a currency
discredited nowhere-worth az much
abroad as it is at homeland upon the
prosperity Of the masses. They are too
smart to be caught in the tolls of the
free silver net; they are not willing. at
the bidding of a gang Of place hunting
politicians, to sacrifice what little can
be saved out of the wreck of free trade;
they are not ready for reputation aud
national honor. The Popocracy is the
rankest fraud and dishonesty, and its
double tailed representative is an in
sane %zealot, a political Jacobin, whose
election would bring Unreasonable
disaster upon the country.
The business men may be somewhat
divided on the issue of Protection, but
they are an indivisible unit for honest
money and the defeat of Bryanarchy.
This is the whole cause OF the Popu.
listic objection to the business men
having anything to say or do in saving
our currency from debasement and
our credit from the strain of repudi.

Is Our Climate Changing

We are inclined to ask this question
by reason of our hearing 30 many re.
ports from the country this summer OF
diseases which have not heretofore
prevailed to such an extent as they are
doing. From all quarters we hear OF
diarrhea, cholera morbus and kindred
blood complaints. We therefore warn
our readers, that. If they would avoid
serious sickness, to shun all unripe
fruit, use no vegetable not fully ma.
tured, aud above all, to be provided
with a bottle Of Lytle's Elixir and a
bottle OF DR.. Harris Relief, 80 that, II
attacked with this disease, you can
cure yourself at once. for in sickness
of this kind, delay is especially dan
gerous.

Money-The Republican party is unre-
servedly for sound money. 1t caused the
enactment of the law providing for the
resumption of specie payments in 1870.
Since then every dollar has been rs good
rs gold. We are unalterably opposed to
every measure calculated to debase our
currency or impair the credit of our coun-
try. We are, therefore, opposed to the
free coinage of silver except by interna-
tional agreement with the leading COM
mercial nations of the world, which we
pledge ourselves to promote, and until
such agreement can be obtained the exist
ing gold standard must be preserved. All
our silver and paper currency must be
maintained at n parity with gold, and we
favor all measures designed to maintain
inviolably the obligations of the United
states and all our money, whether coin
or paper, ut the present sta~ndard-the
standard ofthe most enlightened nations
of the world.--Republican Platform.

"The capitalist can walt on his divi-
dends, but the %workingman can't wait ON
his dinner"
Free silver means free trade"
These Mckinley maxims are the gist
of the whole matter. They are the
issues germane to this national contest
compressed within the compass of a
nutshell.
The capitalist has his money locked
up, He will not risk the hazard of in
vestment in these stagnant, perilous
times. Were he to invest il in lands
he knows that it would be a dead loss,
for the price Of farm commodities is
below the cost Of production. If he
were to embark in manufacturing he
would be met at once with two insur-
mountable obstacles. In the first place
he could not compete with the product
Of foreign pauper labor, and in the
second place the masses have nothing
to buy with. Were he to turn to rail-
road building he would find that there
is hardly a railroad in existence max
ing any money on account Of the pa
ralysis of business. There is hardly a
branch of industry that is paying its
way. The capitalist is cut off from all
chances to use his money with any
profit to himself or anybody else.
Still he is comparatively in an easy
and happy condition. He has a pile
to draw on for his necessities. The
snow storms and arctic blasts of the
approaching winter will bring no dis.
comforts to him. He will have coal
in his cellar, flour in his pantry, meat
in his larder and warm clothing in his
wardrobe. Sheltered In a comfortable
and luxurious home and surrounded
by a happy family, he q sit in
gowned and slippered ease before his
glowing hearthstone and afford to wal
on his dividends.
How far different is the case of the
workingman Idleness from compul
sion has eaten up the earnings an(
savings of his thrifty days. If he hal
q home at all, it is q cold storag,
of emptiness, and he has no none!
to fill the distressing vacancies. Hi
clothing is no better than the thin
ned and frazed rubbish that pom
pous charity hands out to povert,
freezing in the winters fury. AS Ion
as present conditions continue no hop
will throw its gladdening beams upo.
his future. Punched by hunger he nc
his dependents can afford to wait O
their dinner.
And now to ameliorate his condltio
and bring back sunshine and happines
to his darkened and miserable home
the Popocrats propose to give him dol
lars worth SO cents for work that b
can not get and has no hope of gettin.
under our free trade system of destroy
ing industry and beggaring a Who'll
nation of toilers.
Free silver means free trade" an
free everything else that is a nations
curse and calamity.

HERE is something else for Robert
not to talk about. The cost of the ex-
ira session is nineteen thousand, eight
hundred and ninety dollars and eighty
one cents. In such flush times as these,
this is an insignificant sum to throw
away in such a conspicuous manner.
The people ought to be very thankful
that they are so prosperous and the
Legislature was so considerable. Score
another victory for Peter.
Herald and tribune. [volume] (Jonesborough, Tenn.) 1869-current, 1896-10-07

If free coinage of silver means n SO cent
dollar then it is not an honest dollar. If
free coinage means a n hundred cent
dollar equal to n gold dollar, as some ofits
advocates assert, we will not then have
cheap dollars but dollars just like those
we now have and which will be as hard
to get, in which case free coinage will
not help the debtor OF make it easier for
him to pay his debts.--From McKinley's
speech to colored men at Canton, August
