ing together is a combination which
may very readily be termed the
Spanish party, for it's success would
strengthen the hands of that Demo-
cracy which is opposed through its
leaders, to the splendid policies and
magnificent plans which President
Mckinley has in view for the pros
perity of the Nation.
What else does President McKin-
ley say? Just this:
We must guard this restored I'm
ion with Jealous and sacred care,
and, while awaiting the settlements of
the war and meeting the problems
which will follow, we must stand as
one man, not in the spirit of party, but
united in a common effort for that
which will give to the Nation it's widest
influence in its sphere of activity and
usefulness to which the war has assign
ed it,
This is an appeal to the patriotic
sentiment of the people of the Unit
ed States. 1t is rebuke to the
SwalloWcrats and the Wanamaker-
ties. 1t plainly tells them that
their petty interests shonld be de-
ferred until after we have settled
our differences with Spain. What
interests can DR.. Swallow or Mr..
jerks or Mr.. Wanamaker have
that are paramount to the future
of the Republic? Let these men
have their way, and Pennsylvania
cuts loose from Mckinley, cuts
loose from his Philippine and
Cuban policy, and leaves this mag
nificent old State, this rock ribbed
Republican State, stranded upon
the shoals of Democratic inef1icien-
cy and Democratic opposition to
the Mckinley administration.
The Republican party in Penn
sylvania has nominated ticket
that is honest from top to bottom.
it is perfectly capable Of bringing
about all the reforms that are nee
essary. Colonel Stone as Governor
would give us the same honest ad-
ministration that he has given us
in Congress. The soldier boy who
went to war and who throughout
his public career since has left a
record which cannot be assailed,
and upon which all the mud bat
teries of the opposition have been
unable to leave even as much as a
stain, would see to it that the
honor and the integrity Of his
native State were protected.
We can trust William A. Stone.
We can trust General Goblin. We
can trust every candidate on that
ticket, and when their election
means the Endorsement of McKin-
ley and all the aid that Pennsylva-
mia can give to the development
and prosperity of the Nation, then
no man who has the welfare of his
country at heart should be led as
tray by the malicious attacks of
men who personal enmity would
destroy even the Nations honor to
secure personal revenge.
Cameron County press. [volume] (Emporium, Cameron County, Pa.) 1866-1922, 1898-10-20

thus nulllfy all that has been ac-
complished.
We call Pennsylvania Republi-
cans to stand by their President.
The war may or may not be over,
but if it is over, vast problems still
remain to be worked out. Govern
ments are to be established in the
captured islands of the seas. Com
merce is to be extended. Merchant
vessels are to be constructed.
Trade is to be enlarged. Can these
great questions be treated intelli-
gently unless President Mckinley
has the full backing of Pennsylva-
MIA and the other great Republican
States? The leader of the Demo-
cratic party in Congress, Mr.. Bail
ey, of Texas, would hand every
island back to Spain. Elect him
Speaker of the House, elect a Dem
ocrat to the United States Senate
from Pennsylvania and turn the
now evenly-balanced Senate over
to the opposition, and down would
come the American flag and back
would go the islands!
Is Pennsylvania prepared for
this?
All these great questions are
ahead of us. "They will not be
solved in day." says President
Mckinley. Patience will be
required; patience combined with
sincerity of purpose and mistaken
resolution to do right, seeking only
the highest good of the Nation and
recognizing no other obligation,
pursuing no other path but that
of duty.
How is that path to be pursued
how are we to maintain our rights
If we give hostile Congress to
Mckinley, if Pennsylvania and
New York go Democratic? We
quote from President Mckinley S
speeches the following paragraph,
weighted down with significance.
WHO WILL DARKEN THE
COUNSELS OF THE REPUBLIC
IN THIS HOUR REQ UIRING
THE UNITED WISDOM OF
ALL?
Who will darken the counsels?
Mr.. jerks will. Elect him as
Governor, elect Democratic Con-
gressmen, elect Democratic Unit
ed States Senator and you join with
jerks, the foe of Republicanism,
in darkening the counsels of the
Republic.
DR.. Swallow will. He sees moth
ing but his own individuality in
this campaign. What are the great
issues confronting the Nation to
him? There has been extravagant
legislation, so he says; therefore,
Pennsylvania must pronounce
against Mckinley.
Mr.. Wanamaker and his follow
ers will. They are repeating from
the stump the irresponsible utter
ances of the Swallowcrats. They
hate Quay, and to bring about his
defeat they are making deals for
the Legislature with both Demo-
Gratis and Swallowcrats. Cuba,
Puerto Rico, the Philippines are
only incidents to them. The future
Of the country is of less importance
than that who should control Penn
sylvania.
Such is the situation. The op-
position to the Republican party
the allied opposition-might with
justice be called the Spanish party,
for this combination is darkening
the counsels of the Republic.
