Htop Thief.
It is an old dodge of a trickster to
accuse an opponent of the \ c.ry scheme
that he is slyly resorting to. That is
the thing the leading silverites are do
ing. Every silver organ and orator
begins every utterance on the silver
question with denunciatory exclama
tions directed against the “money
power,” “shy locks,” “goldbugs,” “Wall
street,” “Lombard street/’ and so
fourth. The truth is they are follow
ing the “money power” as no set of
political schemers ever did. It must
be acknowledged that. Jones, Stewart,
Walcttt and Sibley are the I ig four o' i
the silver movement and each of ikon
are multi-millionaires. The i'-rsl flirt •
>
are large silver mine owners and toe
the last is willing to piuuvn a r
tiou of hie great wealth in order to be
elected President. He know •, thens !
no opening for him in either of the
old parties.
A Washington special to be . lew
York Mail and Express says that these •
worthy patriots comprising Die silver |
ring of multi-millionaires have formed 1
a syndicate and have bought 50.000,-
00# worth of silver bullion and stored
it away, believing that the free silver
movement is going to succeed, and
that prices will spurt up. Then they
will throw it on the market at amg
profit. It is said that the ring contri-1
buted ten millions of mono; ana that j
capitalists in Wall and Lombard street j
;
put up forty millions. What conster- j
nation there will be in the ranks of ;
those who are honestly but fooli-h'y
following these scheming millionaire:-,
when they discover that they ha . c
been led into the jaws of Wall i
Lombard streets,” and are dein v.
body and breeches into the hands of
the “money power.”
It is the old cry of stop thief. —

From Ihe Messenger, Wilmington i iV. C.
The following letter from George Russell, a
citizen of Lanrinburg, N. G., v.ilj prove of
interest to many of our readers, who mav be
suffering from’that dreaded disease —rheu-
matism.
Laurinburg, N. C., April 3, 1895.
Dr. Williams’ Medicine Company, Schen
ectady, N. V.
Oentlemcn .-—During the summer of 1888 I
had a severe attack of typhoid fever which left
mv constitution in a wrecked and broken
down condition. Ever afterwards 1 had to be
very careful not to get the least damp for if
I did an attaisk of rheumatism would be tire
result. 1 was.able, however, to attend tobusi
ness the most of my time though I could
never say that I was well. 1 continued this
w.:y till’the summer of 1894 when I was
taken with a more severe attack of rheuma
tism which commenced first, in the back of
my head and neck, then rny shoulders be
came involved. I suffered untold agonies,
could not rest day or night, could get in no
p aition that would give me rest even tor a
few moments, could not sleep more than 15
minutes at any one time, had no appetite, my
fie ii was reduced till I weighed, ontv 121 lbs.
The disease moved down or rather spread to
the small of the back and into both hips then
to the left knee joint. I could not walk up
tlmjjoor steps, but had to crawl out and into
the house. About this time i was taken with
a shortness of breath which one doctor pro
nounced heart dropsy, another an excess of
water in the chest. I gave up all hopes of
ever getting any better or even living for
more than a few months. I wrote many of my
relations that I did not expect to live but a
very short time. Of course I had been under
the care of men who called themselves good
doctors all this time, I had six of them to at
tend me during my sickness. T tried every
thing that I could get that was sal' 1 to her. Jit
people who had rheumatism but instead of
getting relief 1 continued to grow worse. One
day a friend came to visit me and like all
other friends hail o reined v for my ills. Her
remedy was Dr. Williams'Pink Fills for Palo
People. She showed me a paper which
praised them very highly. I told her that I
had no faith in them and"as for the advertise
ment in the paper, it was nothing but mere
bosh. But like a drowning man that will
catch at a straw I concluded to try the pills
I commenced to get better from the first day.
I took six boxes and am well, ray appetite "is
good, I sleep well, have gained in fiesb from
121 lbs to 169 lbs. I have been in the rain till
I was literally drenched without;experiencing
any annoyance, afterwards. T can run, jump,
hop andskipe.pialto a sixteen-year-old boy.
Any one doubting this statement can be sat
isfied by writing me. *
Yours truly,
GEORGE RUSSELL. '
Hr, George Russell has, this day appeared
in person before me a Justice of the Peace for
Richmond County, N. C., and made oath that
the statement contained in this manuscript is
true in every particular. Sworn to before me
this 13th day of April, 1895.
