stance of the difference between the
cost If articles here and In other
countries, how the people were paying

80 cents in tariff on the article.
Facetiousy he suggested that articles
be marked in two ways, first, the real
price Of the article and secondly, the
price OF the article plus the tariff.
Then the believers in free trade could
buy the article for its real value and
those believing in protection for the
real value plus the tariff. This he
said would forever end the disagree
ment over the tariff, each side would
have what 1t wanted.
AS he believes in free trade he be-
lieves In reciprocity with Canada and
gave potent reason for his belief.
He condemned the large appropria-
tions for army and navy and desired
much of the money spent in this way
be used for internal improvement.
He believes there are good men in
both the Republican and Democratic
parties and considers a good Democrat
better than either good or bad Re-
publican, but did say that he thought
a good Republican better than a bad
Democrat. He wants tho "moss backs
OF both parties sheared and the
"standpatters" aroused to the call of
common good.
The people of Hillsboro had never
before been privileged to hear two
such men in one day. Both are loyal,
true brave men and are doing great
work for the nation.
