Several }M>|>ulUt.* in Sherman county
have announced their iuteniions i<>
vote for McKinlev and that two of
them have joined the republican club
just organized at Litcutidd.
Jack MaeCull is indeed a popular
candicate. He is gaining ground in
his cauvas every day, and by No
vember he will roll up a majority
equal to that of secretary Pipers
vote of two years ago, 27,oO(> in
round numbers.
It is said that Coin has devised
-a phiu by which the silver forces
■can yet uuite and thus get oul of the
mess made by the holding of the |
St. Louis pop conyentiou. It would
have been more satisfactory to the
-free silverites if he had devised a
plan that would have kept them
from getting into such a mess.
Kverv voter should read and study

money arguments. Talk it over on

rOPlJLlsT CHEAP TACK ABOUT TMK
NATION A I, DEHT.
Ye editor had a little street corner
argument this week with some pop
ulist friends and this is whut they
told us:
••It will take more of our nation 'a
products to pny oft the national debt
of to-day than it would at the close
of the war."
Men who will advance such state
ments must ceituudy lie reckoning
from a free trade and free silver
stand point, if so we frankly ad
mit the truth of their statement, ns
the past four years of free trade has
not only robbed the national treas
ury of the $2:15,000,000 left there
when Harrison stepped out, tint it has
been necessary to issue $gd‘J,UOO,OOt>
more bonds to run the government.
Hut if they mean that such will
be the ease under u protective and
sound money policy we take except
tiou tosui h uu (iscertion. Such state
ments will not bear the light, but
even if il did, is it not a fact that
this nation is today producing at
least twenty times us mush us she
wus then?. But let us see:
At the close of the war the nation
al debt was $2,000,000,OCU. At the
close of Harrison's administra
tion the national debt was re
duced to $H40,000,000. Thus nearly
two billion had been wiped out
Now with the Cleveland adminis
tration under his free trade policy we
are compelled to add $202,000,000
bond issue which makes the nation
al debt ot to-day $1,100,000,000 as
against 2,(500,000,000 at the close
of the war. In other words the na
tional debt of to day is $500,000,000
less than half what it was at the
close ot l he war.
In the four years of Harrison's
administration lie paid oil' nearly
$:i00,()00,00o i hereby saving
$11,000,000 annual interest. At this
rate it, would tukc less than 4 terms
or about 14 years of Harrison policy
to wipe out the entire debt, and still
leave the $225,000,000 in the treas
ury, which was there when Cleveland
look Ids seal.
They say too:
•■That the foreign uatious whose
capital this country has borrowed
rules us with a rod of iron.”
What nonsense. In the face of
the above facts and figures, where
it is shown that we have been able
to wipe out live hundred million
more thau half the original national
ttebt, to say nothing of the hundreds
of millions of dollors of interest that
lias also beeu paid, these politicians
have the gall to tell us, that with
twenty times the resources we had
at the lime the debt was contracted,
we are not aide to handle the
comparitivuly small remaining bal
ance. Suoh argument is only cheap
talk and serves to show how desper

T FITCH TELLS WHY HE IS A REPUBLICAN
At the late republican convention of Arizona,
held to elect delegates to the St Luuik conven
tion. Tom File'll, one of the most noted free
silver advocates In the territory, was called
upon to speak, and responded In a k IRC ('ll
which for simple eloquence and beauty of
diction deserves preservation Ills reasons
why he should remain In the Republican par
ty are utianserablc and -hould he read by all
rcpullcans. The reading will In no wav dwarf
tliclr enthusiasm for the grand old party The
full text of Mr. Fitch s speech Isas follows.
Qeutlemen of the convention I thought
that seclusion that the upper gallery grants,
combined with our circumstances, would ex
empt me from any Invitation to speak before
this convention, but your repealed calls leave
me no alternative couslstaat with courtesy
but to answer them.
The speakers who have addressed you have
spoken of the free coinage of silver as a card
inal principle of ibe Republican party. I tear
that the Nt. Louis convention may compel us
to retrace some of our steps In this matter,
and. us the statesmen who control this conven
tion have not Included mu among those deemed
most lit to represent Arizona ut St. Louis 1
feel quite at liberty to tell the truth.
• I suppose no qne will question my long de
votion to tlio cause of free silver coinage.
Years ugo. ut the meeptlori of the movement,
1. as vice president of the national executive
committee ol the silver convention. In connect
ion with A. J Warner, the president of the
committee traveled through the South and
west preaching the doctrine of bimetallsm. and
I have never since had occasion to change my
views with respect to the great benefits that
might result to this Nation from the complete
restoration of silver as a money metal, and
yet there are other circumstances quite as
influential which must be potent In determin
ing my future action, and the future action of
many Republicans in this matter.
This morning u friend, whe Is a member of
this convention, and who now honors me with
bis audience, said to me: Mr. Fitch, you have
always been a pronounced advocate, of the
free coinage of sllter, wliut will you uu n me
Si Louis convention adopts a plank In Its plat
form favoring a single gold standard and
dcuounglng the free coinage of sllverr I did
not answer this question then, but with your
permitlon I will do so now.
"1 belong to the Republican parly because
Its history is the history of the growth, the
greatness, and the freedom of this Nutlou; be
cause its purposes are patriotic; because It
is the friend of labor without being tbe foe of
thrift, because It Is wise, because It Is just,
because its restoration to complete power
will rekindle the furnace and start thu tur
bines, and (111 the land with the uiuslc of con
ted and well-paid toll, and put bread Into
men's mouths, and hope Into their hearts.
"f belong to the Republican party because
it Is the grandest political organization of
freemen that the world has ever known: lie
cause under its wise guidance star after star
has been added to our flag, ship after ship has
bet., added to .-ill fleets, factory a Nor factor.
has been added to our resources, millions upon
millions have been added to our wealth, city
after city has been developed from our vil
lages, and the land has been laced with a net
work of Iron rails, and furnace Ures have illu
minuted the night, and the grand diapason of
labor has been made to sound throughout the
continent.
-1 belong to the republican purty because
under its inspiration these United States, once
a wrangling and discordant commonwealth;
these United States, once shamed with slavery
and decrepit with the disease of secession
these United States have become a country
where no slave * presence dishonors labor,
where no freeman s utterances are choked by
the band of power, where no tnuu doffs his hut
to an other except through the courtesy of
equals, where education is free, where man
hood is respected, and where labor Is protected
• Under the patriotic rule of the Republican
party these United States huve become a Na
tlon whose credit reigns at the head of the
world stlnanees whose flag floats proudly up
on every sea and whose armies would come at
the drumbeat out of the hives of Industry to
swarm in defense of the country ou every shore
Under the rule of the Republican party these
United Slates huve become the greatest,freest
and most prosperous Nation under the light of
the sun.
