Every Democrat in the country
should do his utmost to elect
Cleveland this year because
The election of Cleveland means
the restoration of Democratic
in national affairs, not for a
term but permanently.
Because the election of Cleve-
land will put an end to Billion
Because his election will bury
the Force bill idea with no
or chance of a resurrection.
Because his election will be the
first step towards tho breaking
down of that kind of tariff taxation
which aims to enrich the few at
the expense of the many.
Because it will put a final end to
tho policy of centralization in
which tho republic's greatest
danger lies.
Because it will free tho country
from tho scandal of Elkins.
Woods, and the rest
of tho personal shams that have
blotted its fair name.
Because it will restore the Dem
idea of government by a
favored class for gain.
Every independent should do
all lie can for tho election of
because his
election will go further than any-
thing could to restore that
purity and honesty of government
which independents seek.
Every workingman should do
all he can for the election of Mr.

means popular government, tho

for taking the climb. All this
country through here is exceeding
rich in minerals and mines are
numerous.
From Hope the travel is east-
ward. many miles after leaving
there we were over into Montana
and something occurred that con-
amused the passengers
on the Pullman. At a station a
well dressed Chinaman lugging a
heavy valise got on at the rear
platform and took his seat on a
camp stool just between the side
folding doors. Seeing that he was
on the lookout for something from
the rear of the cars attracted the
passengers and a few of us gather-
near him began looking out
too- Presently the conductor came
along and familiarly asked
what was tho number of his pass
and how far he was going- The
Chinaman answered promptly and
from that we all knew that he was
in some way connected with the
railroad. By questioning him
some and watching him more we
soon found out all about it Ho

goes over the road just as he was
doing to-day and pays off the

when to expect him are on the
lookout for the train ho is on- He
has a small canvass sack for every
section in which is placed the
money, always coin, to pay the
hands at work on it. Each
is labeled in Chinese hieroglyphics
so that no mistakes can be made
and with the money inside is a
statement showing how much is
due each hand- The paymaster
knows the sections as come,
has the sack readiness, and as
the train dashes by the squad
wherever they are at work he
out something to them and dashes
tho sack overboard. The chief of
the section takes charge of the
sack and distributes to man
his wages. This paymaster gets
a month for his services and
the section hands arc paid
per day.

Senator Brice is finding it
cult to stick to his long-ago ox-
pressed determination to retire
from the chairmanship of the
Democratic National committee,
the wish of Mr. Cleveland,
ex Secretary Whitney, and other
prominent leaders of the party
that he should retain tho position
during tho present campaign. A
gentleman who has just returned
from a visit to Mr. Cleveland says
that the muddle into which Mr.
Harrison has thrown his party by
all of those who
opposed his nomination has made a
deep impression upon Mr. Cleve-
land and that he will show an op-
spirit when the Democratic
committee meets to organize for
the campaign by insisting that no
such discrimination be made.
The free coinage of silver has

Speaker Reed was tho
leader of tho members

on Rules for tho consideration of
tho free bill. Opinion
differs as to what, if any, effect this
disposition of the bill will have on

congressional districts that
