Vermont increased her plurality in
189. over lhutofJS92 hy 8,030, and
Maine increased her plurality by
25,000 and over. Every indication

The Democratic party gained its
ruaguificeut victory of 1890 by rea
on of the campaign of lying, so industriously
begun and so iaitbf
in the few weeks beloro the
election. Merchants were induced,
fcorao through political and others
through selfish motives of personal
gain, to cry out that tho recently
passed McKinley bill had caused an
increase in the price of goods. The
reader will remember the tin plate
lie as a favorite. Tho people believed
these fa'se representations and an
overwhelming Democratic majority
in Congress was the result After
the election and after the devilment
had been done, the people realized
they had been deceived nnd they now
know that the country was more
prospeioua under the McKinley bill
previous to the uccessiou of the pres
ent administration than ever before
in its history, Tho Democratic party
is again attempting to deceive the
people by a like method by proclaiming
to them how much cheaper
their woolen goods may be bought,
nud other like schemes. When a
merchant tells you tho suit you paid
815 for last year will only cost you
57,50 or $10 nowym had better go
to another store beforo buying.
