the Greatest Team on Record.
Frank Everett, member Of the
county committee from Dover-tI
think the ticket is winner. The
course of Mckinley dnring his admin
istration will hold the conservative
voter, while Roosevelt will give us
the hurrah end of the campaign, and
it will be good one, too. F"
Ex-Assemblyman Axtell-t The can
didates on the Republican ticket are
all right The party made it-not the
politicians, and Teddy Roosevelt is
the idol of the young men of the coun-
try, regardless of politics.
NJ. S Condit of the Boonton Ma
tional Bank The recent Republican
convention, at Philadelphia, has
simply carried into effect the mandate
of the people in the nomination of
Mckinley and Roosevelt. No other ac-
tion was possible at anytime of the
conference.
Edward S. Hance, member of the
Republican County Committee The
nomination of Mckinley and Roose-
welt are the veSy best that could be
made, and viii receive as strong sup
port as that given to Mckinley and
Hobart in 1896 "
W. T Brown, county committee
man from Madison The nomina-
tion of Mckinley and Roosevelt is
very satisfactory to all the Republi-
cans that have seen since the nomi-
nation was made and will be sup
ported by them all, and think a num-
Der of the good Democrats will also
support the ticket If l can judge by
what they say there is no doubt in
my mind but that Mckinley and
Roosevelt will be elected by good |
majority. :"
Ex-Assemblyman Joseph B. Fighter
Tn response to your query as to
my opinion of the nominations of Nc
Kinley and Roosevelt, would say both |
are all that can be desired. l think,
Mr. Roosevelt had very important
work to perform in the state of New
York, and should have been con-
tinued as governor. But what is New
York's loss is the nations gain. am
confident of the election of the Re-
publican standard bearers. "
Col. ]. F. Moore president of
the Monitor Iron ANSWER
ing your favor, beg to say that l
find myself in entire accord with Nc
Kinley and Roosevelt, and the Re-
publican platform. believe it would
be very great misfortune and dis
aster if Bryan or any of his tribe
were elected. l look upon him as
the weakest and most incompetent
politician that has ever been be-
fore the American Republic His
bimetallism, l6 to /, etc, is simply
a contradiction of terms.
There can only be one measure of
value, except subsidiary for small
transactions. Anything else is con-
fusion and deceit. You cannot
serve two masters. You will lose the
one or hate the other
'The best measure of anything is
the least variable one.
Why do we use Is OF. of iron and
lead for pound. Because it is the
best for that purpose. Does not vary
materially in hot or cold weather
Suppose we took Is OF. of sponge as a
standard. In wet weather it would alb

mentioned have varied widely even
within week.
"Gold is the only proper standard |
for values. Mckinley is dead right
on this and Bryan dead wrong.

in favor of it-of new markets that
are necessary to our work and mode

Americans are. We must expand or
we will contract. We must go further
in the fulfillment of our manifest
destiny, or sink back into barbarism.
ut hardly becomes the Democratic
party of today to give the lie to Jeffer-
