between these two men, nor between
the principles they represent. While
Mckinley was a member of congress he
refused to speak to Pettigrew because
he believed him to be dishonest, and he
said so many times. On the other hand
Pettiprew had abused Mckinley as no
other man has ever been abused. There
is scarcely a crime on the calendar o:
which he has not accused the president
in his speeches before the people n In
congress-.
Mckinley stands for expansion the gold
standard, protection to American indus.
tries. Pettigrew Is unalterably opposed
10 expansion, says the gold standard Is
the greatest curse that could befall the
country, and Is today bitterly opposed to
protection.
II a man honestly feels that II, Is his
duty TO vote for Pettigrew, he should
also, to be consistent, cast his vote Tor
Bryan. He cannot consistently vote for
Pettigrew to crafty his p~artisanahip n
then vote for Mckinley as a salve to his
conscience or to appease his judgment.
A vote for Mckinley Is the one thing
of all others that will make a vote for
Pettigrew look foolish. There IL abso-
h!tely no argument for both Mckinley
and Pettigrew. One is the antithesis OF
the other.

Farmers and the DIngiey Law.
Chicago Inter-O Ocean

N.NDf V
The tariff rate on all live stock under
the Wilson law was 90 per cent. of value.
Under the Dingley law the rate on cattle
was $2 per head for cattle less than one
year old; 1916 per head when valued at
not more than S14 per head; and 271a
per cent. for all cattle valued at more
than $14 per head. Under the Dingley
law the rate on hogs was 81 so per head
or % per cent; horses and mules, $50 per
mead or GA per cent for all animals val
ued at less than $3.50 each, and 20 per
cent for all over that value; sheep less
than l year old, 70 cents per head and
$3.50 per head for all over 1 year old /;
all other animals 30 per cent.
The Dingley law increased the tariff
rate on corn from 90 to 26 per cent; oats
from 20 to A per cent; wheat from 90 to
Il per cent; butter and cheese from 4 To
. cents per pound; beans from 90 to AZ
per cent; eggs from 8 cents a dozen to s
cents; hay from 81 a ton to g.: onions
from 20 cents per bushel to 40 cents hops
from 3 cents per pound to IL cents. In
fact, all the products of the farm were
given, under the Dingley law, increased
protection, and the RESULT was e Ia
increased production, increased value
and increased exports.
Farm products were exported in 1885,
under the Wilson law, to the value of
$751, s34, 987, and in 1S99,under the Ding
ley law, to the value of $1,151, 0O6, 1853.
The value of the corn crop in the low
tariff year of 1895 was $544, 9S6534, wheat
$237 ,93S 1893, and oats $163,6J5,O6s. The
value of the corn crop in 1899, under the
Dingley law, was 1928, 210,1 l6S wheat
$319,545,259 and oats SOS, 167, 1915. The
total value of staple farm crops in 1895
was s1,767, 9S9,671, and $2,090Bs6, 7S5 In
1899. The value Of live stock was
s ,655,414,612 Jan. 1, 1897, and ss,sSe,-
375,413 Jan. /, 1900.
The imports of agricultural products
for the year ending June 80, 1897, under
the Wilson law, amounted in value to
S4OO,S71,46S. In 1893, under the Dinglpy
law, the value was $Sl4,291, 796, and in
1899 $355,514,SS1. The value of foreign
wool imported in 1897, under the Wilson
law, was $~53,243,l9I. The value in 1899,
under the Dingley law, was $500, 345.
Best American wool dropped under the
Wilson law, from 81 to Al CENTS per
pound to Is cents, and went up un del
the Dingley law, to 81 and 36 cents. The
figures show tlat no class was more
benefited by Republican legislation than
the farmers.

An Absurd Proposition.

The following observations by Editor
Mcleod in the Aberdeen News should bt

in the state:
There are a few honest men in IL
state-a very few who think Of votiu

who are paid by Pettigrew to talk tht

Are Trying to Fool the Voters.

The Demo Pops of Day County,
true to their policy of misrepresen-
tation and deceit, r going around
over the county just Oh the v of
election, and making statements in
reference to the policy of the admin
stration, and the Republican party,
which they know to be absolutely
false and untrue, thinking hat there
by they may be able to influence
susceptible and ignorant voters.
A would-be prominent German of
this county, who has had the office
itch ever since he has been a
resident but who has never held
any Office greater than the office of
deputy sheriff, and who is making a
loud claim that he has the German
vote in his pocket, is telling the I'M
informed voters of this county, (he
never was known to influence anyone
else,) that our taxes are higher than
they ever were before, and that the
reason that it is thus is on account of
the war in the Philippine Islands.
He evidently is not aware that when
a person pays his taxes he receives
a receipt therefore, which shows for
what purpose the levy was made and
the taxes raised in this manner, and
that there have been no assessments
made to cover the expense of the war
nor any tax levied for that purpose
in Day County, or any other county
in the United States.
He also tells the German voters
whom he can get to. liten to him, (by
the way, they are notvery numerous
that if Mckinley is elected he is go
ing to adopt the German military
system in this country. Again he
displays his dense ignorance. For he
should know, if he does not, that
President Mckinley possesses no law
making power, and has not the
authority or power to do what he
charges him with goingto do. Voters
do not be misled, by these lying state
ments made by men who, while they
can scarcely read and write, claim to
be walking Encyclopedias of politi-
cal knowledge, and who claim to be
gifted with second sight and able to
f~oretell coming events, even although
they have not as yet cast their shadow
before.

Ii the private letters from officers
serving in the Philippines could reach
the public there would be no doubt
of the fact that the insurgents pre-
sent activity is caused entirely by the
hopes they have of Bryan's election.
To say the least it is an unfortunate
position for a candidate to be placed
in when his words and ayowed policy
give hope and encouragement to the
armed foes of his own government.

No stronger argument has been,
will be, or can be offered for the re-
election of President Mckinley than
this, opening sentence from an edi-
torial in the Independent Washing
ton Post: "The financial situation
of this country is superior to that of
any other power on earth" This
superiority was made by Republican
Legislation, signed by William Nc
Kinley.
