No. 1 JW, I. - DAILY WORKINGMEN'S CLUB Addressed by Hon, Tilmon Ford, PROTECTION AND GOLD, FOR He Offers Some Curious Statistics on Tariff, A fair audience greeted Hon. Til. Ford, when hearoso to address the Salem McKlnlcy and Hobart Work lumen's club, at Republican head quarter In the Laforo building. At 8:15 a large banner was borne In, In scribed with the namo or the olub, fol lowed by the drum corps of tho club. After a rattllnjj tunc, "Marching through Georgia," which stirred tho blood of all present, the president, Eirl Race, called tho meeting to order. On the platform sat Secretary Irvine, who read tho minutes of tho last meeting. At the last meeting Rev. John Par somaod General Odell hnd addressed the meeting. In tho front row sat Jos. Koncs, School Director Chcrrlng ton, Banker E. P. McCornack and other prominent citizens. Secretary Irvlno read a letter from Hon. John H. Mitchell from Atlantic City, N. J., that has been printed In the Statesman, also one from T. T. Geer, of Mucleay, who Is to speak at Salem on Friday evening, August2lBt, to help " turn back tho silver craze " Hon. Til. Ford was now Introduced amid applause. He said he expected to talk to the free silver llcpubl leans In this club. The gold stawlnid Republicans and gold standard Democrats were all going to vote for McKlnlcy and Ho bart anyhow. He wanted to talk to the sliver men. Both parties advo cated bimetallism. Both advocated the use of both fold and silver as standard money In explicit terms. Republicans did not wantblmetulllsm alone, or without the aid or assistance of sotneiof the other civilized coun tries of tho world." There were a great many people who believed In free coinage of gold wd silver, but did not want It with out protection. Our gold and Bllvcr lud to bo protected by lnws tho same our other great Industries. Tho question was, which one of these men oulamcst promote tho prosperity of the people. What was the true test of a Repub- "an? It was tho tarlff-a tariff to ilse sufficient revenues levied so as to Protect nil our industries and In terests. Democrats wore free traders. Populists and Democrats were now !1 united. In 1892 we had great prosperity. be balance of trade was In our favor I'nW.OOO.OOO. This was a fact no Democrat or Populist could dispute, 'a the next year 1893-the first vcar icf Mr. Cleveland's administration thre was a deficit of sixty odd Millions a year. The balance of trade W6,000,000j and over against us. was under tho Democratic free "we bin. A! a result of tho nmrnfin ,nr W 262,000,000 bonds had to bo i . No man who will sincerely f? n im question can voto for free J1" along with free trade. No'mat- w much we disliked tho present . - i mu ouiuu no no llTed under for ?n vn derltwo paid off the national J and the country grew in wealth "eaithlerall the time. Could we te for frPAtrnrln In .j.. silver? The Republicans say -mi give us free silver if they bA,. 'umeott'e other nations to -vus. lnm .,... htb. aituug a Dimetaliist Lhxr th,8room- Just before "andftblmetalllstwerethd awe. If a. man went Into a hotel and was hungry and could not get bread "and meat and, pie, he would take bread and meat first and pic af terward. Tho Republicans would give them the free silver pie ufter awhile. (Laughter and applause.) Mr Ford now spent some time In replying to a Populist he had a de bate with In Eastern Oregon. That man was a free trader and had pictured a dark state of affairs. The debts of the country were said to bo $400 per capita, and the wealth of tho country was $1100 per capita. Tho more 'children a man had the richer ho would bo. Under a Repub lican administration wo would get richer all the time Wo would put our men to digging out the gold and silver of our moun tains and under a protective system and coin It at any 'ratio we saw lit. The Populists and Democrats always abused the manufactures. Tho man ufacturers would not pay the laborers and furmcrti any moro than they had to. The 350,000 factory employes now Idle, would be set to work. The manu facturer might get rich, but labor was employed and would buy the farmers' products. The theory of the Popu llats. and Democrats would build up rich manufacturers in England. Re publicans would build them up at home; The foreign manufacturer could hot bo taxed. If we hud to build up millionaires somewhere let them grow up here and "we will tax the vagabond to help run this coun try." Applause. While wo might lose some Republicans wo would get Democrats to support McKlnlcy In their places. Laughter. The Republican platform was uot gold standard nor free silver. It was a compromise. The Republicans had paid off the war debt. Would you abandon protection In order to get free silver? Wo should not. We 'wore tho wealthiest people. In the world. We were worth 800,000, 000,000. Wo owed but $1,000,000,000. Could not all see that we had the grandest country under the sun? Wc would go forward to the same great prosperity wc had In 1892 If wo would elect McKlnley. The Republican party proposed to make no change In our financial sys tem. We had tho best financial sys tem on the face qf tho civilized glebe. (Great applause.) He closed with a tribute to the club and the prediction that Marlon county would roll up a a larger Republican majority than oyer before. In conclusion Mr. Ford said: "Wo gentlemen or tho free silver Ideas" can discuss that question after wo restoro protection and prosperity, Wo cannot Improvo on tho policies ad vocated by McKlnley and Blaine. (Applause.) He trusted a monarchical form of government would never be established In this country. (Great applause.) Mr. Race now read The Journal report of Mr. Barkley's repudiation of the gold standard plank of tho Mc Klnley platform. He moved that tho secretary write Mr. Barkley togho in a letter his position on the plat form and McKlnley. Walter Lcnnon put tho question to the houso and It was carried by a very weak vote. Mr. Fones said the uniforms for tho club wore in tho manufacturer'shands and by the time of the big Jubilee they would bo ready for all who wanted to wear them. "This is regular old Methodist campmeetlng style," said Mr. Fones, "Tlio Methodists never fall to tako up a collection. Anyone who will voto for McKlnley can loin this club." The president announced anothor address next Friday night The club now adjourned. For Sick Headache. The popularity of Hood's Pills as a remedy for sick headache, stomach and liver troublo Is rapidly Increasing.
