Mr.. Major. the famous cement man, of New
York. explains some very interesting facts about
Majors Cement.
The multitudes who use this standard article
know that it is many hundred per cent. better
than other cements for which similar claims are
made, but a great many do not know why. The
simple reason is that Mr.. Major uses the best
materials ever discovered and other manufac-
turers do not use them, bectuse they are too ex-
pensive and do not allow large profits. Mr..
Major tells US that one of the elements of his
cement costs IS 70 pound. and another costs
S2.65 gallon. while large share Of the SO called
cements and liquid glue upon the market are
nothing more than sixteen-cent glue, dissolved
In water or citric acid, and In some cases fill
tered slightly In color and OdOr by the addition
of cheap and useless materials.
Majors cement retails at fifteen cents and
twenty-five cents a bottle. and when a dealer
tries 70 sell a substitute you can depend upon it
that his only object is To make larger profit
The profit on M3jOr's cement Is as much as
any dealer ought to make on any cement. And
THIS Is doubly true In view of the fact that each
dealer gets his share of the benefits of Mr..
Majors advertising, which amounts to over
5000 month. throughout the country Es-
tablished In 1876.

"OBsERyER" OF INwOOD CALLED
He is Either Dull of Comprehension Oh
Dishonest.

He is Either Dull of Comprehension or
| Dishonest.
The following is portion OF an
article which appeared in the Repu blican
paper of this city Tuesday, signed
observer:
Editor Republican: Metsker, in his
speech at Inwood last Friday evening
said that Aguineldo is more of a pat
riot than the soldiers who are lighting
him."
| observer" is certainly anything else
than an observer, else he is dishonest.
He has either purposely falsifed or he
is dull of comprehension.
The statement of Mr.. Metsker could
not be misunderstood by any one who
wanted to understand. He said that
the Filipino soldiers were lighting for
the right of self government just as our
fathers in 1776 were fighting; and that
If We concede that our fathers were
right in claiming that foreign power
had no right to rule over the colonists
against their will, then We must accord
the same consideration TO the Fill
pinos, who are alike struggling for their
freedom and the right to build up q
government upon the consent of the
governed.
The speaker did not say that the
| Filipino soldiers are more patriotic
than the soldiers who are lighting them
far from it. He said plainly that
American soldiers are not to blame be-
cause they are commanded by the Nc
kinley administration to shoot down a
people contendine for liberty. The sd-
ministration alone is responsible, not
| the American soldier.
Most OF these soldiers enlisted to
fight Spain enlisted to aid in the
emancipation of people, but after en-
listing they were taken to Manila, and
the administration which has turned its
back upon human liberty and the
inslienable rights, as claimed by those
who fought for our republic, has forced
these soldiers, who enlisted to fight
against Spanish oppression, to turn
their musketry against the weak and
oppressed people of the islands.
The soldiers are not to blame; they
do not wish to fight to subjugate peo-
pie. 1t is the administration, the power
that commands the soldiers, that is re-
sponsible for the crime against people
struggling for liberty.
The above is almost the exact Ian
guage used by Mr.. Metsker at Inwood,
| and we think observer" will learn
from this experience that there is moth
ing accomplished by Misrepresentation
or by distortion of facts.

Republicans Propose tn Corrupt.
The following letter hes been received
10y the national democratic committee
Dear Sir-In accordance with your
request to report to any election frauds
that may come under our observation
am sorry to say that the republicans OF
this place are offering to buy votes iu
this way.
They offer $50, and pay half cash, fol
which they take receipt, and promise
TO pay the other half when the vote il
cast.
The game, of course, is to get the vot.
ers receipt Under our law as it now
stands, when they once get the voters
receipt they will own him not for this
election, but for all time.
And the shame of the matter is that
the republicans who are handling the
funds now, would have scorned 70 dc
such work when it was q criminal
offense to buy votes.
l suppose that the same game will be
tried In other parts of the state and
therefore deemed it my duty to notify
you that you might warn the other
clubs. Respectfully,
\. j. HOWE.
Pres. of the Delphi Bryan 4 Stephen

county clerk TO make the change.
Hence, the printed ticket will bear the
name of Mr.. Taylor as the candidate.
1t is now too late to rectify the matter
as this should have been done prior to
fifteen days before the election. The
republican committee is alone respons-
ib'e for this blunder.
It's understood that Mr.. Laird, ,believ-
ing himself to be the candidate has
been making canvas for the office.
He even refused to teach school this
fall on account of his supposed csndi-
dacy. Mr.. Taylor, whose name will ap-
pear on the republican ticket, is going
to school outside the county. The can
didscy of Mr.. Taylor will prevent his
father from acting as inspector in his
township, and in consequence the
county commissioners will be called
upon to select some one in his stead.
Either the republican committee has
been asleep or those in charge have
permitted the blunder for personal res-
sons.

A Tidal Wave Of Democracy.

| The democratic national congress
sionsl committee issues the following
statement OF the situation:
A tidal wave of democracy is sweep
ing over the country and indication,
now point to the greatest popular ma
jority for Bryan next month ever giver
TO any democratic presidential candi
date. The great popular uprising IL
favor of Bryan is not confined to any
particular section of the country. 1t il
universal. The sign is in the sky and
it spells VICTORY.
1t is universally conceded, even by
the republican leaders, that Mr.. Bryan
has lost nothing of the strength he had
in 1896, when less than $4,000 votes
properly distributed, would have elected
him. Ii therefore follows that this
year he will receive al least as many
| votes as in 1896, plus the natural in
crease in the number of young demo
cratic voters who have come of age
since the last national campaign. But
this year Mr.. Bryan has many elements
of strength which he lacked in 1896 and
which are sufficient to insure him a
tremendous majority, both in the pOpu-
lar vote and the electoral college
In 1886 the German vote went almost
entirely for Mckinley. This year Mr..
Bryan will receive, by the most cOnser-
vative estimate, sixty per cent of this
vote. A gain of 10 per cent in the
German vote alone is sufficient to carry
several of the sO-cslled doubtful states
and elect the democratic national
ticket.
Four years ago the labor vote was
largely given to Mckinley on the al
legged prosperity" issue. This year the
vote of organized labor, numbering
hundreds Of thousands, will be cast for
Bryan. This vote alone is sufficient TO
carry several doubtful states for
Bryan and Stevenson.
In 1896 the "gold democrats" left the
regular organization on the financial
issue, and they claim to have cast one
million votes, most of which were given
direct to Mckinley. This year the
gold democrats" recognizing that
their constitution has, for the time be
ing, been settled by statute, have re-
turned to the old party and fully eighty
per cent of them will vote for Bryan
This vote insures safe democratic
majority in several close states.
In 1896 large majority of the Irish
vote was cast for Mckinley. This year
THE vote will be given to Bryan, and
this alone means success in several i'm
portant states which four years ago
gave their electoral vote to Mckinley
