1896. This year the mills We're open and
there was demand for cotton.
American farmers received nearly $40,

oats this year than they did in 1896.
They received nearly $50, 100000 more
money for their potatoes this year than

buy potatoes this year, as the mills were
open and good wages were being earned.
They received over $14,00O,OOO more
money for their barley this year, and
barley is one of the smallest Of the sta

McKinley's farm is profitable one.
In any season when crops are good it
yields richly. This years potato crop
will probably aggregate 1000 bushels.
The corn fields have been known to pro-
duce as high as $500 bushels in single
year. Last year the meadows produced
100 tons Of hay. The oats crop this year
aggregates some 700 bushels.
This is apple butter making time in
this section of the country. Many of the
apples on McKinley's farm. just at the
present time, are being made into apple
butter. The large orchard is an impor-
tant part of McKinley's farm. One good
year 100 bushels of Baldwins were
gathered and as many more of other
kinds kinds, making a total yield Of near
ly $500 bushels. Part of the produce Of
the farm Mas been shipped to Canton
from time to time to the Mckinley home,
but none has ever been sent to Washing
ton. Canton is about twenty miles from
the farm.
Selling milk is one Of the industries Of
the farm. There are twenty-five head Of
cattle. There are nine mich cows. Some
of them are blooded stock Raising

DANIEL WEByTER'S
WARMING TO THE POOR,
Only Dsmagogues viii Try to Incite a
Contest Of Money.

l see in those vehicles which carry to
the people sentiments from high places,
plain declarations that the present con-
troversy is but strife between one part
of the community and another. I hear it
boosted that the poor hate the rich. I
know that under the cover of the roofs
of the capital within the last twenty
,, four hours. among men sent here to de-
wise means for the public safety and the
public good, it has been Wanted forth as
matter of boast and triumph that one
cause existed powerful enough to sup
port everything and to defend every
thing; and that was the natural hatred
of the poor to the rich. l pronounce the
author Of such sentiments to be guilty
of attempting a detestable fraud ON the
community; double fraud; a fraud
which is to cheat men of their property,
and out Of the earnings Of their labor by
first cheating them out Of their under
standing
The natural hatred Of the poor for the
rich. 1t shall not be until the last mo-
ment of my existence that will believe
the people of the United States capable
Of being effectually deluded, cajoled and
driven about in herds by such abominable
frauds as this. l admonish the
people against the object Of outcries like
this. l admonish every industrious la
borer in the country to be on his guard
against such a delusion. tell him the
attempt is to play off his passions
against his interests and to prevail on
him in the name Of liberty to injure and
affiict his country and in the name Of In
dependence to destroy that independence
and to make him beggar and slave.

President Mckinley owns a farm. A
great deal has been written about Mr..
Bryan's farm, but heretofore no descrip-
ton of Mr.. McKinley's broad expanse
of corn fields. meadows, COW pastures
and orchards, which comprise 1924 acres.
His well-kept barns, corn cribs and wag-
on sheds show care and thrift. The wool
on the backs of 200 sheep shines with
cleanliness, for McKinley's farm is a
model one and a modern one Unlike the
famous Nebraska farm of the Democratic
candidate for President, the public
knows little about it. Two miles from
Minerva, one mile from Bayard, Ohio,
it stands on sloping parcel of ground
surmounted by the orchards of Baldwin
apples. The Cleveland and Pittsburg
Railroad crosses corner of the farm and
the Big Sandy canal courses through the
field at one side Of the main road.

The final and controlling word upon thiss
question is with the Supreme Court of

Marvellous Statement by the Department of Agriculture,

Administration.
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PROSPERITY AND DEPRESSION.

The United States Department Of Ag-
xiculture has just issued its statement Of
the value Of nine Of the principal crops
Of the United States. Comparing this
value with the value of the same crops
In 1896 and adding the increased value of
tive stock already published, there is an
Increased gain Of over one billion two
hundred million dollars.
1t is the difference between prosperity
and Representatives, Republicanism
and Democracy.
The increase is given below:

The value on the farm of the nine prin-

was $71O, 100, 617 larger this year than
I'm 1896.
The figures are supplied by the Depart

1 Interest; both agricultural and manufac-
: featuring interests have been stimulated
= thceeby; and what stimulates these inter
ests directly stimulates the business Of
railroads. The outbound shipments Of
: the raw cotton may not have been heavier
because more was used in the Southern
j: mills: but the outbound shipments Of
textile goods have greatly increased. Also
the inbound shipments of the luXuries of
life have increased enormously, and this
class of freight is the best paying of all.
Opening up new markets in Cuba, Por-
TO Rico and the Philippines for the pro-
ducts of the South has given great addi-
tional stimulus to the Southern railroads,
which, geographically considered, derive
unusual advantages from the expansion
oolicy.
The extent to which new factories have
been erected in the States Of West Vir-
-0inia, Kentucky and Virginia is shown
by the number Of establishments started
along the line Of the Norfolk and West
ern road during the past year. These in
.clude:
Three new cotton mills.
One SILK mill.
Three knitting factories.
One pulp mill.
One cotton and linseed oil
One coke bi-product plant.
Four iron aud steel works
One hosiery factory.
One Hour mill.
Two canning works.
Three peanut factories.

-Four wagon and buggy weeks.
One handle factory.
