| In hla - < p'ccli at Canton on Jlonday ,
Major MeKlnley said that the contest
tlilst jear will not be waged upon theory
and speculation , but In the light of
practical e.xperlencc and deaily acquired
knowledge. What Is this ptactlcal ex
perience and knowledge which will most
largely Ititlueiiro the Intelligent voteia
of thu United .States In the Impending
campaign ?
Tour ycois ago the condition In this
country was one of unoMimpled pios-
polity. At that time the ludiistiles of
the countiy woie In full operation.
Uvoiy mill and factory In the countiy
was miming nnd ovoiy man , woman
ami child that ncodod woik could ob
tain It at good waues. I'nder the last
lepubllean tariff law the development
of manufaetuilng IndtHtilcs had bi'cn
lapld , but with the ample employment
which those ga\e to labor , tbeieby
gleatly Ineieasing the ability of the
people to consume , the demands of the
countiy Kept pace with the .supply. At
the sumo Him * that the domestic com-
meico was greatly enhuged the foielgn
( onlinece ] was also \ei > much Incieas-d.
The statistics show that the e.xpoils
of Iho United States In IS'Ueic thu
laigest of any year In our history. What
is known as the McKInley law had been
In opeiatlou less than two jeais and
Us icMilts In all lospwts had surpassed
( hi1 most sanguine expectations of its
siippoitots. These facts are Indisputa
ble. Thoj aie matter ot lecoul acces
sible to ou'ijbody who will take the
tiouble to hxik them up. They aio l.i-
mlllar to millions of American woiKing-
meii and business men.
What has bri n the expeiienco since ,
under thu opeiatlou of demociatic
policy ? This tiKso is familiar , for the
countiy Is still under the pall of the
Istiust and depression and disaster
aused bv that policy. The iesnlt , of
he national elei lion of 1W- ) , which de
L'd the advent of the demociatic pnity
o power , was tollowed almost imincdl-
tely by a change lu lndnstil.il condi-
ions. Aliumed at the demoeiatlc tin cat

MIS necessary to take pieeantloiwij
ncasuies against thu i evolutionary
bango which the doiuoci.itic p.uty had
issiired the uiuutiv was to bu iiisti-

ilstory of the countiy was theie so

following the advent of the dmo-
ciatlc paity to povvoi. Never be-
' 01 e was tlieiu so gteat an ainiy of
\merlcan woikingnien and their I'.iml-
los subjected to pilvatlon and hardship
is in this peilod of deinoci.Uic contiol
) f the goveiiimont. And even now him-
lieds'of thousands aie idle , with no
lope of betteiing their condition except
hiough the. restoration oC lepubllean
lolley.
It is hiieli piactlc.il expeileiice and
Ic.iilj acquiied Knowledge that has
li.iwu liuudieds of thousands of voters
to tlie republican patty dm Ing the last

In seeing similar purgative lemedles ap-

Kiom lellible infoLinatlon it appeals
that the ( outIs of Chicago and I'ooK

that which has leeuntly Infested 0111

condition , thu ( Jlilcago Tlmes-lleiald
sajs :
\Vhat with perjury , Jmy packing , false
personation of Juior.i , bilbory of ointlalH ,
stiau trill and straw bonds , the administra
tion ot Justice Is seriously crippled In Cook

to cheat tlio law roraea to light , and though
sometimes the culprits nro punished , too
frequently they escape. That thcro Is nn

to bring the roRuet to Justice , but the law's

Known means too uuiely Interpose to save

The Times-Herald goes on to clto an
Instance that has Just occuned , vvhoio
a fiaudnlent appeal bund was given , the
bondsmen having made oath to the
owneishlp of propcity that belongs to
other peisons. The smprising thing In
their testimony to such ownership was
the details they gave of the propoity
and their title to It. They described It
fully , told Its value and what liieum-
biancos woie. on It. All this with an
air of slnci'iity that Imposed upon the.
cntiil and cvciyhody who heard them
bavo thu astute and suspicious lawyeis
ojiposed to tliem These gentlemen
matin fmher ( Investigations and ascer
tained after much expense and dllllcult >
that thu bondsmen wcio. liars ami per-

nor any otllur. And the Tlmes-HoiaU'
concludes its ait.ilgnniunt of corrupt
coiut methods with thu ubseitlon that
such cilmes tuu sc'ldom committed with
out the Knowledge of one or moio of
the attoiiieys engaged In the cases and
with a demand that the Judges and bni
association Join In pinging the legal
frateinlty of the QuliKs , ( iummoub and
that Infest It.
Theio hi no question that thu Times
llciald Is right In charging up a largo
pint of the Jurj-fixing ami mlscnnlngc
of justice to the complicity of conscience
less lawyeis and Iho Indlffetcnco of
reputable attorneys and Judges. An at-
toinuy who connives w'llli purjuiers and
iilbc-glveis should bo legaided as all
