Messrs. Youche of Crown Point, and Agnew of Valparaiso, Johnstonites, called upon Charlie Landis the other day, at Delphi, and informed him that he must get off the track. They graciously assured him that their objections to him were not personal, at the same time they preferred any other man. They would not tolerate the man or the faction that thwarted then, iu their attempt at stealing the convention and the candidate. —" 1 - 1 ■ ..... Coxeyism is the fungus growth of McKinleyism.

< —I - McKinley protection doesn’t protect the laborer. During the y°ar 1893 there were 3,200,000 tons of coal mined in tlrs state. To do this work 4,510 miners were em* ployed and the wages paid aggregated 81,577,891. The price paid oer ton for mining was 52 cents. The average pay of the miner per day was $1,12, out of which he paid 21 cents per day for oil, oowdei, j etc., leaving him just 91 cents as a

day's wages. The amount of coal mined pei day by each miner was but a little over two tons. On this coal the McKinley protection was $1,45. The miner’s wages wafc 91 cents. This shows that the McKinley tariff law gave the mine owner his coal free of labor cost and 63 cents besides. The pros j tected owner live«| upon the jfat i of the land, and the unprotected j miner lives upon 91 cents a day. | Such facts refute the Republican arguments that a high tariff makes high wages. High tariffs mak.millionaires and strikers. The present coal miners’ strike jn tifß . state prove* it.
