During Mr.. McKinley's administra-
ton we have passed from the state
of a national debtor to that of cred
itor nation. Instead of borrowing
from Europe, we lend Europe. We
have funded a debt of more than
$3.50, 100000, bearing 4 and AZ per
cent. interest, into bonds bearing 2
per cent.-a less rate than was ever
before realized in any country in time
of war-and our new bondsnow com
mand a premium of 4 per cent, being
quoted higher in proportion than the
securities of any European govern
ment. We have collected, without
friction, without difficulty and with.
out the scandal of a single defalca-
ton, the largest revenue in our histo-
ry. During the year ended June 30,
1900, our internal revenue amount
ed to 1926 313, 107 81, and the pro-
ceeds of our tariff on imports amount
ed to $271,926,744 80, making
grand total of 1857, 240,S51 80.
We have created since March IA, this
year, 1923 new national banks. These
banks have been established through
out the country-small banks, with
capitals of $50, 000and 1925, 900, dis
trihuted among the agricultural dis
tricts, and they give not only facility
but protection. They are in fact the
symbols of our tremendous progress
and Development. They tell tale
which in the estimation of serious
men, accuses and forever silences the
silly rigmarole of the cheap and shall
low eXhorters from the stump. From
March 1898, to March 1897, there
1873 national bank failures. From
March 1897, to March 1900, there
were 81 failures. He who cannot
read Alright the meaning of these facts
ADD figures is beyond the reach of
common sense and reason. Here in
nutshell is the record of the Repub-
lican administration under Mr.. Me-
KiDley, so far as it touches the sub
stantial interests of the American
people. 1t is not made of coniecturp,
prejudice, craftsmanship or any other
manifestation of empty tomfoolery.
1t represents the faithful and inteli-
gent work of the Secretary of the
Treasury and his loyal and efficient
conductors. = Washington Post.

Gently had cattle killed in a curious

ing the object of the panther-if it be

other cattle, a two-year-old heifer,

owned by Mr., Butter6eld, were kill
ed in the same way. Authorities on

kills its victims in this way, and a
bear will occasionally do so. How

Fish Hatchery this year. The Legisla.
ture of 1898 were decidedly penurious
in this direction. We believe in econ

case, the Hatchery is direct benefit
to the State and is something that
all our citizens should be interested
in. Messrs. Titcomb and Bailey have

last three years, under the Republi-
