lue NEW 1OTk lTlDuHe says mo
boss rule. No federal interference. So
we say in Ohio.
The voters of Ohio will not be driven
and coerced as last year. Mark Hanna
would like to, but it can't be done.
The fight in New York against the
boss machine business is waxing fierce
and furious. Hanna bosssm in Chic
is threatened.
One of the great industries of this
country is silver mining, ana yet the
Republican protection party wonld des-
troy the whole business.
We do not unders' and that Mr.. Han
ma talks in his speeches about the
Pacific railroad job. If he speaks ia
Canton truthful exposition of that job
might enIighten some people,
And now the uper.serviceable Hanna
organs are cracking up their boss as a
great orator as well as a staunCh friend
and benefactcr of the laboring man
"How his world is given to lying"
The voters this year are not going to
be deluded by false promises of pros
perity. Thousands, yes, tens of
thousands who were deceived last
year will not be captured this year by
Hanna claptrap.
If the free silver party have majority
in the Ohio general assembly no British
gold standard man will be sent to the
United States senate. No oppressor Of
labor like Mark Hanna will be chosen.
All this is certain.
Coz. CCngtr is out with another blast
on MAX Hanna in which he speaks
quite freely OF McKinleyism, quoting
Blaine in this connection. Toledo's
mayor, s. M. Jones, cannot stomach
Mark Hanna either.
Suppose we had free consge, would
foreigners send silver to our mints when
it gets better price in Europe and never
more here? The freight would be some.
thing. what falsities and fooleries the
Hanna sheets deal in.
"a hundred millions more in crcula.
ton this year than last" says a Hanna
organ. SIN circulation" with the banks
in New York and all our large cities
over-stocked with money they cannot
loan. Why not tell the truth?
1t is to be hoped there will be no m ore
monetary commissions sent from this
country to England. 1t only makes us
ridiculous and we ought to be ashamed.
1t is Republican invention and there is
neither manhood nor craftsmanship in
it.
"Tax the inheritances' says the Cleve-
land Leader, and refers to the Pullman
millions. Yes, and tax incomes. Such
men as Pullman was can stand tax ON
incomes. The country will have to come
to all this as we'll as to free coinage of
silver as well as gold.
Republican papers boast that the gold
reserve in the U. s. treasury is near
$3.50, 600, 900, but they do not tell how
the treasury surplus is coming down
owing to the failure of the Dingley law to
furnish adequate revenue. In three and
a half months it has fallen back 35 mil
lions. Yet great is Dingley!
Republican organs are approving the
course of the British government in re-
fusing to yield little on the silver ques.
ton. This is just what advocates of
silver said England would do. 1t was
just fraud scheme to elect Mckinley
and pave the way for gold standard and
retiring the greenbacks and other gov
ernment paper
Mr.. Bryan continues to trouble the
goIdbug organs. OF late these sheets
were saying the "McLeRn committee
would not have him in Ohio" But now
that he will make dozen or so speeches
in the state these British gold papers are
tortuously tacking and twisting "Bryan
is going to cut rates." and sis anxious
to avoid expressing an opinion about
the New York contest, ETC., etc." One
thing these scayengersdo say, namely,
that Mr.. Bryan has not put his foot In
1t as President Mckinley has.
