"UNFINlSHED BUSINESS"

A few days ago Hon. Charles A.
Towne remarked in speech at Wash
ington G. II. that ''the campaign of
1900 is the unfinished business of the
campaign of 1896"
With mental penetration that is
beyond the ability of the average mind
to follow, the Beacon exploits this ut
terance as being on a par with the in
discreet remarks Of DR.. Burchard or
Senator Scott.
Our neighbours point is too dense for
us, but this is not surprising in view
of the fact that in this campaign intel
ligent thought and reason are strangers
even to the camp of the saviors of the
national honor, and being such, are
not to be thought of in the ranks of
the Bryanites and silver Barons.
But let us review the campaign of
1896.
In that contest the underlying prin'
ciple at issue WAS the right of the
people to have voice in the control
and policies of their government; and

In the excitement of a Presidential
campaign voters are apt to forget the
Importance of electing good county
ticket. They become so imbued with
loyalty to the great principles involved
in the national contest that they
overlook the matters touching their
interests here at home. There are
many Republicans who intend to vote
for candidates on the Democratic
county ticket. In their zeal for the
election of the national ticket they
should not forget to mark the ballot
so that they cast a vote for the men
they wish to support on the county
ticket. Democrats should make it n
point to remember their duty toward
the candidates for county offices. Be.
tween now and election time do all
you can to bring about the success of
the men who are candidates here at
home.

Chief Marshal Hershey doesn't seem
to have counted any of the delegations
out Intentionally, but why has he fan
ed TO make room somewhere along the
line for silver Baron Dicks "Silver
Mine Owners Mckinley Sound Money
Cmb?" And why has the Neely
and Rathbone Mckinley club been
crowded out? Can the discrimination
against these organizations mean that
they no longer are supporters Of the
Administration?

THIS INTERESTS WORKINGMEN.

1t cost. the workingmen of America
great many years of labor to have
placed upon the statute books a law
excluding the Chinese from entering
America to compete with American
labor. The colonial system that is be-
ing adopted by the Administration
means that the colonies will be an open
door by which the cheap labor of the
East may enter the home country.
Even If the constitution were ignored
and the people of the colonial terri
tory, including Hawaii and the Phil,
ippines, were excluded from the mother
country, their labor will be employed
in the territory in which they live in
competition with American working
men, for the articles which the cheap
labor produces will have to be admit
ted TO the home markets free Of taxa
tlon.
This is danger that threatens
every American laboring man and in
dependent manufacturer, and every
farmer and merchant who depends up
on the prosperous conditions of these
interests for a market for their prod
ucts and wares. The trusts only will
be in n position to exploit the labor
Of the Philippines. Voters should take
this into consideration before they
vote for the endorsement of policy
that stands for a continued exploita-
tion of the Philippines for the benefit
of the trusts.
Every voter should read the ad-

real fact indicated by the Youngstown

has taken up his residence in the Ma.
honing capital. If there is any city
in Ohio that has suffered more than the
rest from the operation of trusts, 1t is

MISTAKES Of MCKINLEY.

written by a Republican voter who supported Mr.
Mckinley in 1866
More of the head than Of the heart
Are the errors of our President;
Well meaning, but without backbone
No strength of will to assaults
Against plain duty" well Defined
Yielding his own and public rights
To wealthy syndcates and trusts
Whose Golfers yawn for and more
or wealth and privilege and power.
Only few short years ago,
Mckinley urged the peoples rights
And welfare. "Sound money" then
Meant gold and silver equally
Free coinage at sixteen to one,
With MAN the master, not the DC LIAR.
How soon the change in nnety-six
The Presidency for prize,
Mark Hanna lifts plate of gold
Dazzling McKinleys eyes, Free coinage then
without permission from abroad became
A dangerous experiment and only dcmagogues
Were its supporters. Forgotten all
His former words and precepts. Reversed
His teachings and his policies. All
To be in name, not fact, a President.
Small wonder then at summersaults performed
And zlgzag tracks in national affairs;
The Cuban war mismanagements; Ager's
Disgrace, and Egans sore ahiictlon,
The Filipino and Sulu Sultanate
The Porto Rican tariff and Cuban postal frauds
Surrender of Alaska and canal unfort6ed
South African republics for liberty lake war,
But crushed by overwhelming force appeal
In vain to Washington. Mckinley dare not speak
America responds in sympathy expressed
In love of liberty with just and equal rights
Abhorrng England's greed for power and gold,
And our alliance with her. secret, but understood
second term is what Mckinley wants;
Another lease of power for four long years,
To fasten yet more firmly necks
The yoke of trusts and bonds and golden Chains.
Shall Fpinos put our hearts to shame
By fighting for their freedom and their homes,
While we in tame submission vote him in?
Mckinley? mol Nor Mac and Roosevelt,
But Bryan! only Bryan! and his mate

| one and all.-expansion, religion, pros
perlty, moral progress, material better
ment Of condition, upbuilding Of an In
ferlor race, extension of commerce,
necessity, logic Of events, duties weo we
to humanity and the like. JEFF Davis Ia
the defender and the apologist Of the
whole scheme, and Mckinley and his
fellow spell-binders are only humble
followers of the arch rebel Of 1861.
If Davis was right then, Mckinley is
right now,-not otherwise. There is
this difference, however: Davis was
standing for an existing institution.
Mckinley is striving to force one upon
the people, among whom it does not
now exist, except in the Sultanate of
Sulu, where he has guaranteed it con-
tinuance so far as his administration
is concerned, and is paying for it's
maintenance and to this he has ex-
tended his protectorate over polygamy,
"A thing Jefferson Davis would have
shrunk from with moral loathing,-and
all this 40 years later.
We have no further comment to
make upon this remarkable state of the
argument.
| The only answer the Beacon journal
will make to it is-no doubt-that it is
"slush."
The men of 1861 did not so consider
| it.
We only desire to set over against
it the answering words of Abraham
Lincoln, which were:
"These arguments that are made,
that the inferior race are to be treated
with as much allowance as they are
capable Of enjoying; that as much is
to be done for them as their condition
will allow-what are these arguments?
| TIory fhn MT 10 L -frNU
have made for enslaving the people in
all ages of the world. You will find
that all the arguments in favor Of king
craft We're of this class; that they al
ways bestrode the necks of the people.
not that they wanted to do it, but be-
cause the people were better off for be-
ing ridden. Turn it whatever way
you will, whether it come from the
mouth of king, an excuse for enslav-
ing the people of the country, or from
the mouths of men of one race for en-
shaving the men of another, it is all the
same old serpent"
To be consistent with itself the Bea.
con Journal will have to say of this al
so that it is all "slush."
The question we ask is which party,
this year. is the party of Mr.. Lincoln,
and which the party of jeff Davis?
Was Mr.. Lincoln, in 1861, waging a
just war, or was Davis? Is Mckinley
prosecuting, in 1900 just war in the
Philippines or not? The latter ques,
tion is as significant this year as the
former was 40 years ago. The con-
scientious voter is entitled to satis-
factory answer. From Mr. McKinley's
party he will not get it. His newspa-
per here will edify its cultured readers
with the Dobsonian argument that it
Is all "SLUSH." And if this is not
deemed wholly satisfying to the in
Quiring voter, some red-fire will fill the
bill.
