Are you taking Simmons Liveb Reg
ulatob, the “King of Liver Medi
pines?” That is what our readers
want, and nothing but that. It is the
same old friend to which the old folks
pinned their faith and were never dis¬
appointed. But another good recom¬
mendation for it is, that it is better
than Pills, never gripes, never weak
ens, but works in such an easy and
natural way, just like nature itself, that
relief comes quick and sure, and one
feels new all over. It never fails.
Everybody needs take a liver remedy,
and everyone should take only Sim

J3e sure you get it. The Red K

about 3 o’clock on Sunday morning,
with appendicitis.

tbat he was thought to be dying, and
four eminent phyiacians were hastily
summoned, and restoratives were ad
ministered.
He continued to suffer intensely all
day Sunday, but at 7-30 in the evening
he became easier, and was thought to be
much better. But later in the night be
grew worse, and his relatives were tele
graphed lor, as it was thought he could
not live.
At an early hour Monday morning he
was resting easier, and it was hoped the
worst was over.
The physicians were preparing to
make a surgical operation, provided be
was able to 6tand it.
It is earnestly hoped he has passed
the worst, and will soon be relieved.
As we go to press he is reported as
resting easier.
The governor’s illness has caused a
deep sorrow in our city, and he has the
heartfelt sympathy of our entire people.
Our earnest hope is that he may be
speedily relived and restored to health.

Memphis Silver Convention.
The great Memphis free silver con
vention was a success.
Even the dispatches in the Atlanta
Journal say it was the largest conven¬
tion ever assembled in this country on
any economic question.
And that tvas saying a great deal for
it.
Twenty-seven states and territories
were represented hi it, and a large num¬
ber of United States senators and rep¬
resentatives were also present.
Many prominent leaders of ihe dem¬
ocratic party were present, and took
yart in the proceedings.
All partisanship was discarded, and a
full and free expression of sentiment
on the financial question was given.
A sound free-coinage-of-silyer plat
form whs adopted, which shows how
deeply in earnest the delegates were on
the great question of finance.
The following is the platform adop¬
ted :
II Silver and gold coin have in all ages con¬
stituted the money of the world, were the
money of the fathers of the republic, the
money ol history and of the c<-u- itution.
The universal experience of mankind has
demonstrated that the joint use of both silver
and gold coin as money constitute the most
stable standard of value, and t. tt r the full
amount of both metals is necessary as a medi.
um of exchange.
"The demonetization of either of these his¬
toric metals means an appreciation in the value
of money, a fall in the prices of conmodities,
a diminution of profits of legitimate business,
a continued increase in the burden o’ debts, a
withdrawal of money from the clannels ol
trade and industry, where it no longer yields a
safe and sure return, and its idle aciumulation
in the banks and the great money enters of
the country.
“There is no health or soUndnessln a finan¬
cial system under which a hoarded dollar is
productive of increase to its possesor, while
an invested dollar yields a constanty diminish¬
ing return, and under which fortutts are made
by the action of idle capital or b a persistent
fall in the prices of commodities aid a persist¬
ent dwindling in the margin of pofits in al¬
most every branch of useful indu'.ry. Such a
system is a premium on sloth an a penalty
upon industry, and such a systenis that which
the criminal legislation of 1873 has imposed
upon this country.
“The bimetallic standard of sver and gold
has behind it the experience of ges. and has
been tested and approved by th enlightened
and deliberate judgment of rankind. The
gold standard is a departure frtti the estab¬
lished policy of the ci lized years of I
ing to commend it but Iwegf he people and

It is not a matter of dispute
among the honest advocates of the gold stan¬
dard, that general prosperity came to an end
with the destruction of the bimetallic system,
and that hard times, falling prices, id'e work
ingmen and widespread depression came in
uu |, t j, e gold standard and prevails today
wherever the gold standard has lieen adopted
“Every international monetary conference
that has been called, every demand in this
country and in Europe for an international
agreement to re-establish the bimetallic stand¬
ard is a confession that the demonetization of
the system was a blunder, if not a crime, tbat
its consequences have been disastrous, and
that the conditions that it has wrought are full
of menace and of peril.
•‘The logic of facts establishes beyond in¬
telligent question that the des'rucrion of silver
as primary money by a conspiracy of selfish
interests is the cause of the widspread depres
sion and suffering that began with the go'd
standard There can be no restoration of
prosperty. no permanent relief from prevailing
conditions until the great cause has been re¬
moved by a complete restoration of silver to its
proper place as a money metal, equal with
gold.
“We believe in a money of stable value :
we believe least of all in an appreciating stan¬
dard ; it is only through the practical opera
tion of bimetallism that a stable standard of
value can be secured. A standard constituted
of money constantly increasing in value is not
a sound, single, nor a stable standard, but a
constantly changing standard.
“The effect of gold monometallism is to es¬
tablish one standard for the creditor and an¬
other for the debtor ; and there can be no
more dishonest monetary system than that
which gives short measure to the borrower and
long measure to the lender.
<< Under the policy prevailing prior to 1873
there can be no violent change in the relative
value of the two metals, for a rise in value of
one metal is counteracted by a decreased de
mand and a fall in value by an increased de¬
mand Under the operation ol this beneficent
law a stable relation was maintained between
them in spite of the most extreme changes in
relative production. From the fir st period ot
our history up to 1873, the right of the debtor
to choose whether he should pay his debts in
silver or gold coin was always recognized.
The subsequent policy has been to transfet
this right to the creditor, thus tending to con¬
stantly increase the value of the dearer metal
and destroy the parity between them.
“Believing that it is absolutely necessary to
reverse this iniquitous and ruinous policy, we
therefore, resolve :
“That we favor the immediate restoration
of silver to its former place as a full legal ten¬
der standard money equal with gold, and the
free and unlimited coinage of both silver and
gold at the ratio ol 16 to I and upon terms of
exact equality.
“That while we should welcome the co -op.
eration of other nations we believe that the
United States should not wait upon the pleas
ure of foreign governments or the consent
foreign creditors, bijt should themselves pro¬
ceed to reverse thet‘grinding process' that is
destroying the prosperity of the people, and
should lead bv their pie the nations of the
earth. a. j ^American f.
That the rights of i people,
the interests of American labor, and the pros¬
perity of American industry, have a higher
claim to the consideration of the people’s law¬
makers than the greed of foreign creditors, or
the avaricious demands made by the ‘idle hold¬
ers of the capital.’ The right to regulate its
own monetary system in the interests of its
owr. people is a right which no free govern¬
ment can barter, sell, or surrender. This re¬
served right is a part of every bond, of every
contract and of every obligation. No creditor
or claimant can set up a right that can take
precedence over a nation’s obligations to
promote the welfare of the masses of its own
people. This is a debt higher and more bind
ing than all other debts, and one which is not
only dishonest, but treasonable to ignore.
“Under the financial policy that now pre¬
vails we see the land filled with idle and dis¬
contented workingmen and an evergrowing
army of tramps, men whom lack of work and
opportunity have made outcasts and beggars.
At the other end we find th t a few thousand
families own one half the wealth of the coun¬
try.
« The centralization of wealth has gone hand
in hand with the spread of poverty. The pau¬
per and the plutocrat are twin children of the
same vicious and unholy system. The situa¬
tion is full of menace to the liberties of the
people and the life of the republic. The issue
is enfranchisement of hopeless servitude.
Whatever the power of money can do by de¬
bauchery and corruption to maintain its grasp
on the law-making power will be done. We,
therefore, appeal to the plain people of the
'and with perfect confidence in their patriotism
and intelligence to arouse themselves to a full
sense of the peril that confronts them and de¬
fend the citadel of their liberties with a vigi¬
lance that shall neither slumber nor sleep.”
To the Memphis Convention.
The friends of true bimetallism in
Covington sent greeting and best wishes
to ihe Memphis convention, last week.
While the great silver convention was
in session Wednesday, the friends of
free silver coinage in Covington wind
the following friendly message to the
chairman, bidding them Godspeed in
their noble and patriotic struggle for the
restoration of silver to its proper place in
our monetary system as one of the stan¬
dard money metals of ihe country.
The telegram reads :
To the Friends of Silver—Greeting :

Chairman Bimetallic Convention, Memphis:
The silver men of Newton county, Georgia,
send greeting, and say God spje4<fn«itutional
meat to restore,^ j| nal payment .
n! \Ve believe in the coinage of both gold an-f
silver at the present ratio, without discrimin¬
ation against either metal.
We say honest money consists of gold and
silver and paper, of equal legal value and dtbt
paying power, and that the government can so
legls’ate as to preserve this equality without
the interference of foreign nations.
We want the government to make money
for the Unit d States and not for the world.
Feople to the front and politicions to the
rear. Down with the money changers and
monopolies, and give the silver eagle a chai ce.
A large majority of our people favor the
free coinage of silver at the present ratio.
