Mr.. DAVIS INCONSISTENCY

The latest example of the wabbling
of the Democratic party on public
questions is furnished by the recent
speech of its candidate for Vice-Pres-
ident, Mr.. Davis, in which he said he
favored tariff that not only fur
nished revenue but provided protec-
ton to home industries. That is fine
Republican doctrine and sounds
strangely from Democrat.
Some allowance must be made for
Mr.. DAYS., however. He was talking
to West Virginia audience, and it
is well known of course that West
Virginia, from necessity and of bit
ter experience, is a protectionist
State. Mr.. Davis was afraid to stand
up for the free trade doctrines of his
party in that State.
His speech is fairly characteristic
of the present attitude of his party.
not only on the tariff question but on
other public questions. The party is
u ms w SUI outtIc bllelu. FOLLOWING
the example set by the party action
on the gold question, when the con-
vention went one way and the candi-
date went. the other, the party is now
splitting on the tariff.
The Southern and Western WINGS
want free trade, as near as they can
get it. To them the tariff is a rob-
berry. The class to whom Mr.. Davis
talked know better and would not
have free trade. But, which wing is
to rule? How are the people 20 know
whether they would have free trade
or modified protection under Demo-
cratic rule?
If they want the protective tariff
there is only one way to insure it and
that is to help elect a Republican
House of Representatives this fall.

most sacred reverence for the consti-

< FEARER, Z


WIG >10>10>1C\
There passes through our town
from West Virginia almost daily what
is called stump in print in return
on lumber wagon is what is called
"Gussaway' in a jug or jugs for
snakehunters. As this wagon was
passing the Mayors residence, which
was being painted, the driver called
to an old man-and said: Hello, old
q. with your button, come here |
want you to try some of old 'Gussa-
way or old H. q. D. If you don't
take the stump for the old man if you
get two smacks at this you will be a
red-hot H. G. d. democrat all your
days"
Yes" said G. with the button,
''for I'd be lunatic. Now I'll Just
take this rock and not your stump
and tell you all you want to hear of
H. q. d. and his party. You know
away back in the sixties, when that
man fed you snakehunters the same
stuff he is feeding you today and
filling his pockets with dollars worth
one hundred cents, and not fifty cents,
as Gussaway voted; yes, and you
know how we made the buZZards fly
around the snakehunters' carcasses
in the lower end of our State. You
ought to be down there with the cop
perheads and old Arthur Pew Cor
man who made the whole country
stink with the carcasses of sheep
when he and Wilson lifted the pro-
lection from wool and the farmers
had to kill their sheep. He's down
in New York today with the same
poison you snakehunters take which
! will ruin any nation. Show me one
thing your Gussaway or A. Pew ever
did for our country. Pew did stand
for gold, but where is he now? Where
are your leaders | can't find them
and don't think the voter will hunt
them up as you do snakes. You
should change and come on the Lord S
side, for the good book says "a fool
changeth not Our platform is like
this rock, it has the grit and founda-
ton, and the only thing | find fault
with our party is that it has made
times so good that any one can get
your stump poison. That's what
makes your brain so narrow and why
you don't believe in expansion. If
your brain and the good your party
has done our country were confined
in mustard seed they would haye
as much play room as a frog in the

spreading his wings to plant Old

and his party don't expect the people

PARKER'S LETTER

Judge Parker has announced his ac-
| ceptance of his nomination for the
presidency by the Democratic party
in letter submitted TO the public
| last Wednesday.
The letter deals in generalities and
is in no particular specific as to RENE
dies for the imaginary governmental
evils existing and impending, which
che letter portrays.
| The letter is mediocre, pessimistic
and commonplace, and it will not
strengthen the judge and his party
with the people. The texts of the va
rious paragraphs in the letter are not
new or original. These subjects and
the same line of argument are perfect
ly familiar to the people. They con
sist in the main of criticisms and at
tacks upon the Republican party and
its established policies and have long
| since been worn threadbare by Demo
cratic orators in and out OF Congress.
Judge Parker goes along in the old
familiar beaten Democratic path in a
| weak, negative and nerveless produc-
ton" discussing imperialism, the tar
if, reciprocity, pensions, the consti-
tuition, the Filipinos, the Panama ca
nal, etc.
His fusilade upon the national ac-
complishments and policy of the Re
publican party is without effect or in
| tluence, because in each case his prom
Use is false and because he can sug-
gest no remedies for the evils he pro-
fesses to discern. As an exchange
aptlY puts it, He handles the tariff
question with a pair of tongs" and
his elaboration of his crude reciproci-
ty ideas is prefaced by this admission:
To-day the marvellous growth of our
manufacturing Industries has far eX-
coded the consumptiye capacity of
our domestic markets" If this be
true, as it is, and as Judge Parker
admits in his letter, what response can
he and his party expect from the peo-
pie to his proposed experimental
changes in the tariff laws? The judges
reference to imperialism is silly and
pointless; his accepta nee of the gold
standard as fixed is merely an en-
dorsement of the act of the Republi-
can party, an act which he tried to
prevent by his votes four and eight
years ago, votes of which be but re-
vote Gently boosted.
His comments on the recent pension
| order lose their force in the closing
appeal and the bid he makes for the
OF the old veterans.
In imitation of Grover Cleyeland he
calls aloud for retrenchment in the
expenditures of the government, but
as an exchange says: Not a single
item is suggested. Not a single item
is suggested. Not a single specifca-
ton of saving is indicated. A criti-
cism which does not name an ole G.
ton and cannot name an an amend
ment is pointless.n
The letter contains nothing else
worthy of comment.
Hon. Arthur Pue German, who has
superseded Mr.. Thomas Taggart in
the Democratic management, must
haye known of the contents of this let
ter of acceptance and must have an
ticipated its force with the people
when he went to New York and told
Parker to 20 home to Esopus and
henceforth make no utterances for
the public, but keep perfectly quiet
and unobtrusive until after the cleo
ton.

section of the country that they are

manufacturer according to quality,

is a trade to itself and it requires
years of experience to know when you

bought for the money, and best suit

NO PROTEST AGAINST SALE.
Asphalt Mined by President Castro's
Receiver Arrives in New York.

The State Department has not yet re-
ceived any protest from the American As
phat Company against the sale in New
York of asphalt mined from Bermudez lake
by General Castro's receiver further than
the statement contained in the original
brief and notice by the director of the
company to it's stock holders. That notice
extended to all ship owners, shippers, ship
ping agents and other persons informa ton
that the asphalt company was wrongfully
dispossessed of Lake Bermudez July %
last and that it would hold responsible in
damages all persons whomsoever, who at
any time or place receive, transport, de-
liver or dispose of any asphalt taken from
the lake by persons other than the COM
pany's agents and employees.
The State Department will, of course, en-
tertain and consider carefully any repre-
sensations made by the asphalt company to
show cause why it should take action to
seize the asphalt which arrived In New
York yesterday on the steamer Kenneth
but the present view is that the matter is
one that must be settled by the New York
courts.
