on a high protective tariff platform,
which i tiie way the Republican
party has of paying off its debts to
the wealthy manufacturers, who
have already contributed hundreds
of tbou. and:-; of do] ars to secure
the nomina'ion of McKinley: and
will, as in the past,expend mil ions
more to secure his election, know

some profit on the investment at

FROM BETHAVEN.
The Holt correspondent, says (hat every
'body In that, section is fur free silver, anil
wa-ta tile government to send down a car
toad for distribution antivg the poor and
needy, and lie contemplates being the
chief mwtiruar nt tile fnuornl, but doubts
if lie can beat the .1 party, etc.
The 8 party does not expect free silvor
that way. nor do they look for it through
the democratic jmrty. Its past record is
too frssh in their minds, Fees silver was
murdered ip a democratic congress by *
majority of 181. No matter bow the
HJnth votes, die gold bugs „f both the old
parties are united, and they name the
president and th e fool people vote foi him.
