The G. o. P. could not give
eighteen words to the McFadden
excise bill, which would give to
the producer the added value of
gold and compel the smelter to
pay him higher price for it.
Some of the Republican papers
are telling the miners they are
sure to receive at least dollar
an ounce for their silver under
the Pittman law. But they fail
to explain how he is to get it if
silver sells on the market for less
than one dollar per ounce. The
producer is forced to sell his sill
yer to the smelter and they pay
him 5 per cent less than the mar
ket quotations. The smelter
might be able to get one dollar
per ounce even tho the market
price was lower. We have not gone
into this bill thoroughly but the
indications are that the purpose
of the law is to furnish another
graft for the smelter under the
false claim that it will encour-
age and foster the mining indus

Since the nomination of Sena-
tor Harding of Ohio, by the Re-
publicans, the chances of Cover
nor Cox, of the same state, receiv-
ing the Democratic nomination
have increased decidedly. Cox
has wonderful record as an ex-
ecutive and has been instrument
tai in having great deal of con-
structive legislation enacted in
his state. Politically he is the
strongest man in Ohio IS is at
tested by the fact that he has
been elected governor three times.
notwithstanding that Ohio has
always been regarded as a strong
Republican state. The action of
the Republican convention in ad-
opting a platform that straddles
all the main issues of the cam
paign and then nominating a can
didate for president who is q re-
dictionary and would be easily
Dominated by the special privil-
ege seeking classes in case of ell
ection, has increased Domocracy's
chances of success and available
candidates are becoming numer-
Gus. The Democrats on q positive
platform of constructive ideas
can win with either Cox, McAdoo
or Marshall.

Instead of the time honored
slogan of equal rights to all and
special privileges to none," the
Republican party comes out with
the declaration that the laws must
be equally and impartially en-
forced against all. But do they
mean this? Eugene V. Debs for
uttering radical sentiments dur
ing the war, is serving a long
term of Imprisonment in the peni-
tentiary, while Senator Newbcrry,
of Michigan, who was convicted
and sentenced to a term in the
penitentiary for violating the ell
ection, laws of his state, is an
honored member of the senate of
the U. S., and there is no human
probability that he will ever see
the inside of prison. We under
stand that there was some refer
ence to this in the Republican
platform, but it was also lost with
the dry plank.
