Will Not Be Fooled Again.


The country is experiencing even
greater prosperity than it did the first
years of the Mckinley tariff, and it is ev-
ident that the Democracy will make a
poorer showing in next years ca "paign
than it did in 1896. There will be abso-
lutely nothing for it to stand upon in its
appeals to workingmen. Laboring men
of all kinds are in demand and wages are
high and advancing. The country is be-
ing secured for skilled help, and COM
mon every day laborers are sought for
withour the demand being supplied. The
coke regions want $1,000 men, every
shipyard is straining its resources to
keep up with contracts, cars sufficient
to carry coal from the bituminous regions
cannot be obtained, the iron companies
are rushed beyond all reason, and shops
of all kinds and railroads are crowded
with business. Workingmen were fooled
in 1892 by clamor for a change, but
they will not be in l9OO.-Ottawa (Ill.,

An Instructive Comparison.

y comparison of the present prosper
Gus times with 1896 will show what the
fear of a Democratic administration and
a cheap dollar will do for a prosperous
country. Then everything was in doubt;
business was at standstill no one en-
gagged in new enterprise (unless it was
some charitable association in some of
the large cities started new soup house
to feed the starving y capital sought places
of safety and was afraid of investment;
labor was thrown out of employment
and the industries of the country were
idle or running on half time. Why all
this stagnation in business? What made
these hard times in 1896? There was a
possibility of electing Bryan and chang
ing the monetary system from the gold
to the silver standard. Not a bank
would loan dollar on ninety days time
one or two months before the election, it
made no difference what the security
was. Why? Because every bank knew
that if the change came it meant a panic
and runs" would be made on all banks
and that the worst panic that ever swept
over the country would follow quickly
the news OF Bryan's election, and bank
ruptcy would be general. Having passed
through these distressing times and hav-
ing seen the sudden change for the better
on the announcement of McKinley's
election; having seen these banks open
their doors within week after the cleo
tion and make extensive loans that they
had but recently refused; having seen
the times grow gradually better until to-
day the whole country is happy, pros
porous and contented; isn't it strange to
see party clamoring for the same man
and the same policy that produced the
hard times that prevailed in 1896? or
course there is no one alarmed now, be-
cause it would be hard to find a well
posted person that believes that Bryan
had ghost of chance to be elected to
the presidency in 1900; but we want to
remark right here that iffrom any reason
it should appear in the fall OF 1900 that
Democracy and free silver had a chance
of success you would see the same close
times you saw in the fall of 1S96.-Ben-

JUDGE WHITE, of the Allegheny courts,
made a ruling in divorce cases the other
day that it would be well for other courts
in the State to adopt. The Judge discov-
cred that in a large majority ofcases t. at
came up for hearing, notice had not been
served upon the respondents, and wher-
ever such notice could have been served
he ruled the case out. The court officers
made the excuse that it had not been the
custom to serve notice on respondents in
divorce cases. but the Judge gave them
to understand that the law required such
service wherever possible, and that in his
court the law would hereafter be enforced
to the letter.
