be raised against imperialism and the
tariff. Under the heel OF imperialism
what has not come to pass, but we need
not at this time 90 into details; 1t suf-
fees that things have come to pass. Az
to the tariff, ii Ii well known that under
its operation certain industries have
hourished outrageously. Under its ne
farious workings we are competing with
the world in trade and even the farmer
Is becoming, In some eases, far too opu-
lent Take, for instance, the one who
raises wool. He gets far more for his
wool than he would were the Australian
product allowed to enter free OF duty.
Why should the wool grower be thus
benefited? We feel, as we have felt for
long time. that all is wrong with the
tariff. We may be a trife vague con
corning our own attitude as to what we
might, could. would or should do with
the tariff were its adjustment In our
hands. but let that pass.
Troubles All ,Ronnd.
The land is rocked by business and
Industrial troubles. Men are standing
against men, arguing, striking and oc-
casionally working. Nothing has been
done to bring all this 10 a focus. Where
Is the hand OF Power? What would
Thomas Jefferson do were he with US in
the flesh to-day?
No Second Term.
In conclusion. gentlemen, | wish to
remark that | seek no second term.
feel that even consideration OF such
thing as a second term would be I'M
timely. | feel that we all. in common,
are convinced that all thoughran and energy
should be concentrated upon obtaining
the first one. Gentlemen | am salts
fed with the platform, with you and
with myself. Could there be more mag
nifeent outlook for the party Of Thomas
Jefferson, TO whom. / believe, have
already referred? Could there be an
outlook more full OF promise?

DEM0CRACy'S COAT OF ARMS

candidate Parker, in a letter to a
correspondent, says that the arms of the
Parker family show three stays and a
chevron charged with trefoil slipped. ]
Old Dame Democracy sits down
And knits her puzzled brow
Into a deep and lasting frown--
81 can't decide, somehow"
She signs, (which one of these designs
Shall be my coat of arms
The figures and heraldic lines
Have rather lost their charms.
"For instance: Here's a mule couchant-
His ears are both askew,
His legs all Imply lie aslant
Upon a field Of blue.
A placard tied upon his tail
Tells why be cannot run
This motto: Do not work, but wall
About 16 to L.
again: Here's one discreetly drawn;
The mule is on its feet,
But thin and rough and weak and wan
AS though it did not eat
The shadow Of portly man
Seems to be set astride,
ana unlS udTk NlOlLO meets my scan.
Let Grover Cleveland ride
"And here a tiger is rampant,
With red lights for his eyes
The mule, concealed. is very gaunt
And looks on with surprise.
He reads the motto, which is big,
And which is printed thus:
In old New York you have to dig
The graft belongs to u.s.
''1'hey will not do. All, here is one
That | Will have to choose:
A mule, in fright before a gun,
His neck held in moose.
His heels tied by a telegram
Inscribed: From Parker-quick"
Below, platform, built of sham
The motto: You can't kick"

to finish and actively set things going
is something our historic party Is sa-
credy pledged TO combat to the end.
Imagine a power SO ruthless shat it even
threatens to tear canal across the
isthmus Of Panama and to build vast
dams and reservoirs and irrigate the arid
reaches of the West. We are opposed
to power.
The Weather.
Without the exhibition of any undue
bitterness, speaking calmly of our OPP
ponents, as should become an ex-Road
Commissioner. | would call your atten-
ton, gentlemen. to the fact that under
a Republican administration the last
winter was the coolest in over forty
years. What has followed? Has the
Signal Service been reformedf So far
as any intelligence has been transmitted
to me, the bureau of the Agricultural
Department to which | have just made
casual reference remains in almost pre-
cisely the condition in which it was
year ago. / wish to refer to this matter
with all broadness and dignity OF percep-
tion but, while | would not directly
charge maladministration in the prem
ises, | feel at least justified in calling
the attention Of the American people to
an existent state.
The Boil weeyiI.
Furthermore. gentlemen, and bearing
in mind the graceful remarks OF your
chairman, | would call attention par
ticuarly to the boil weevil which has so
ravaged the cotton crop under a Repub-
ican administration. 1t is true that Ger
tain ostensible attempts to check the
evil have been made, but why should the
boil weeyil have appeared at alli What
necessity was there for bol weevil UNI
der any circumstances? II Is the old
story of Republican oppression OF the
South. And the chinch bug is undoubt-
eddy impending!
Encke's Comet.
But, gentlemen, and l am not I'M
mindful of the fact that l was practi-
cally renominated a second time on a
platform supposed to be thoroughly ex-
purgated in spirit IL not In letter, l would
call attention 10 the fact that under this
same Republican administration Encke's
comet is to reappear again this fall and
tear its senseless way across our solar
system. The Republicans admit the fact
themselves. and having, unfortunately. a
majority of the educated class in their
ranks, including almost all astronomers,
they should certainly be conyersant
with the situation.
November.
Gentlemen, could, were / so inclined,
refer to the fact that, under this same
Republican administration. il Is admitted
that November is coming again; No
vember, with its lowering skies and long
gray stretches OF hub-deep muddy roads
and consequent strain upon the farmers
horseHesh. Gentlemen, the farmers are
the bone and sinew OF the land. A
calamity TO them is a calamity to all.
That other things than bad roads are not
unlikely to occur to some Of US in No
vember next may be fact, but upon
that we need not dwell.
Imperialism and the Tariff.
1t is quite unnecessary, gentlemen, to
allude to the fact that our utmost voice,
the longest howl on Unalaska's shores"
---if may be allowed to misquote slight
