The farmers of our country will never prosper while the manufac turing industries are languishing and the manufacturing enterprises can never nourish under free-trade. Show us a time when American manufacturing was in full blast, and we will show you a time when labor was reasonably well paid, and when farm products brought a fair price. In Mississippi some of the ne groes believe that if the silverites win, that the colored man will get 16 acres of land and one mule in place of the "40 acres and 1 mule" promised by the Freedman's Bu reau people. Calling a rotten doesn't make it good, egg good All the difference between a Cleveland Democrat and a Bryan Democrat is a promise. If Billy Bryan is the great "re former" that the Democrats claim him to be, why did he sit in the "frails of Congress and never intro- istration. But the 10 to'l Demo cratic orator shouts, and the-band plays and the fools yell and the patch-plated, . befuddle-brained farmer lines up in readiness to give the old humbugs "just one more chanca. " With Bryan and Palmer as its candidates for President, the Democratic party represents a great double-headeddevil fish after the American voter, hence no dif ference which head swallows him, he is immediately landed into the same craw, to become nourishment to a party which is a blooming, infinite absurdity, cherished and nurtured in the dung-hilt of stupidity. duQe. asingle,biILin Jeeping-jkvitliling-to- be sure. Instead of - "ex the great (?) platform he now porting woollens", we witness th stands on? Free-Trjide would bring fully as much prosperity, under Bryan as it is doing under Cleveland. "Gone Democratic" and "gone to the devil" have come now to mean about the same thing. The Democratic party of to-day is the same old' lying machine that it was foir years ago. In Oregon the , Pops say be fore they will support Bryan they will go fishing in November. "The man who is decieved once is human ; -but the man who is decieved twice by the same person is a fool. " In 1894, Bryan wanted free trade, he said, to make prices low. In 1896, he wants free silver to make prices high. And the Dems claim to want both free trade and free silver. If this isn't blowing hot and cold wind, we'd like to know the reason. Mr.Brvan said, in 94, that free wool would enable the American manufacturer to export woollens. Well, Mr. Bryan and his friends had their way and we got free wool, and what a thunderation sight of "woollens" we are export- If the Democrats undertake to prove their faith; by their good works, they will have a devil of an undertakincr. A man who likes "Democratic prosperity" good enough to vote The Secretary of the Seaman's Union declares that nowhere are seamen so poorly paid as on the sixteen vessels owned by the Dem ocratic .candidate for, vice presi dent. Democrats, don't it make vou feel erood to have a chance to vote for such a humane old mil lionaire as Arthur. Sewall? The Democratic platform de clares against Protection National Banks and Railroad Monopolies, but in his 16 thousand words speech at New York recently Wm. J. Bryan dodged all three of these planks. Now if in two months he will ignore three planks of his platform, how long will it take him to ignore all of it? A batch of three-ply patches on the caboose of the farmer's trous ers is one of the 4 'object lessons" he gets from a Democratic admin- disgraceful spectacle of the Amer ican manufacturer tearing down and exporting his machinery to the olcPCountry, throwing out of employment the American laborer whose place is to be filled by the rat eating ten cent laborer of Ja pan and China. But the free trader tells us that we can now buv our woollen cloth- ing for less money than we had to pay under the McKiriley Tariff. Bat poor deluded simpletons, they are too thick skulled to see the fact that their policy has made money so thunderatiori scarce by the shutting down of the mills and kindred establishments that the people haven't got the "less money" to buy jwith. Of .course, the average Democrat is too blind these days to see anything but free silver, but every sober thoughted man knows that it is better to pay more and have the money to pay with than it is to. have a chance to buy for less and yet lack the funds to settle the bill. It is Mr. -Bryan's policy of Free Trade that has run this great Na- tion in debt at .the rates oi over $125 per minute for the last three vffl.rs hp crrpflr, nnlip.v rt rrn- j - . 0w.. j -r- debt over $100 per minute for'25 years.
