STAND BY THE GRAND
OLD PARTY.

All intelligent American citizens
know that our triumph ever Spain 10
far from being completed, and the
glorious results of the war is already
within our grasp and that it will 10
impossible for the President to retain
it unless he has the support of a re-
publican congress. 1t cannot be cx-
pected that such we'll known free sill
yer workers as Weaver, Finn and Lyon
to indorse the policy of u republican
President not withstanding the plea
that they are making that the Demo-
Gratis fought side by side with the re-
publican and that some of the Demo-
cratic Statesmen, soldiers and sailors
showed much valor and love for their
country as their republican brethern
and that a vote for Democratic cam
didate for Congress will be entirely
iustitiable. Is there an honest repuE-
lican who will indorse such a plea?
The Democratic leaders are in
need of an issue, they are seeking one
on every side, they first started with
the free silver and then they abandon
it for the sick soldiers or any other
issue to beat the republican and as
party they have taken issue with the
Government in every question involv-
ing any and all the war measure, either
the war was a step too far forward or
step backward or the president did
not do this or he should have done
that. If you want to see the American
name and the American flag honored
you should vote for republican Cong
ress. The President must have a Cong
ress of his political friends if he is
to guarantee to the American people
what they fought for and won, if he is
to continue the prosperous condition OF
this country give him a congress of his
political friends. A vote for such men
as Weaver, Finn, Lyon and Holly and
the other nominees on the Democratic
ticket is a vote for free silver and also
vote against Mckinley, against his
administration, against his policy,
against our army and navy and against
the very best interest of ever laboring
man in this country.

satisfied. We have popul alton Of about

Clergyman's Experiment.

A laudable attempt on the part OF
Noting Hill clergyman to practically
illustrate to the working class portion
of his flock the combined benefits of
religion and a tankard of beer has, we
regret to hear, proved unsuccessful.
The Rev. Prebendary Denison started,
for the social pleasure Of his congrega,
ton, a club, where the reverend gen
tleman or his curate went, after dis
pensing theological pabulum In the
church, and served the members with
beer and other corporal refreshments.
The idea was to keep them away from
public houses and to afford them hon
est recreation with unreasonable amount
of tipple. By the rules no man could
be served with liquor more than three
times in the course Of night. But the
clergyman was unaware Of the degree
if not of original sin at least Of bibulous
ingenuity among the rougher classes OF
Noting HILL They evaded the rule
by clubbing together their twopences
and treating each other, so that in the
course of the evening a member was
able to obtain half a dozen, or even
more, drinks, instead Of three. The re-
suit was sometimes unpleasant, and
the Prebendary has therefore reluct,
antly determined to give up the expert
