GOLD AND SILTED. “Wo denounce the Republican legUl*> Uon known aa the Sherman act of 1800, aa a cowardly makeshift, fraught with poaaibilitiea of danger in the future, which should make all of tta supporters, aa well aa ita author, anxious for !W peedy repeal. We hold to the uae of both gold and silver aa the standard money of the country, and to the coin age of both gold and silver without dis criminating against either metal 01 charge Tor mintage, but the dollar unit of coinage of both metals must be of in trinsic and exchangeable value, 01 adjusted through loteroatioual agree* ment, or by such safeguards of legisla tion aa shall insure the maintenance of the parity of the two metala, and the equal power of every dollar at all times in the market and in the payment of debt; and we demand that all paper cur rency shall be kept at par with and re deemable In such coin. We insist upon this policy as especially necessary for the protection of *he farmers and labor- ng classes, the first and most defence less victims of unstable money and fluc tuating currency.”--National Democratic Platform. NO UNCONDITIONAL REPEAL An unconditional repeal of the Sher man law wonia secess&slly remand ill ver back where it was under the set 1873, and where it was in all gold using countries. That act had been no “make shift.” It had made a clean silver as money. Such a repeal would not be a “cowardly makeshift,” but an unconditional surrender to the goldites. He would as soon trust young chickens in a hawk’s nest to bo cared for as leave silver where it would l>e if the Sherman law were repealod uncondi tionally. He should never vote for the unconditional repeal of the Sherman law. An unconditional repeal of any law, without substituting other reraedi al legislation, was an unquaiifiud admls •Ion that no such legislation is necessa ry, and the chances of securing the new remedy In a separate bill were dimin lahed. M“It is the determined and., unalterable purpose of the opponents of repeal stand upon their convietions of public duty and fidelity to their pledges to the people whom they represent, end who have honored them with their confl d mce on this vital question, until phys ical strength is exhausted and the power of speech is left to no senator to prevent the suocess of the conspiracy denounced by John O. Carlisle as equal In conse quence to .war, pestilence and famine.' —Senator I*ugh, of Alabama. WHY MOKE MONEY I* NEEDED, The New York Recorder boldly de clares that the business of the country Is starving for more cmreuoy, end makes this point: Statistics nLow that the population of the United States Ik doubling it*elf every thirty years, a fain of SH per cent every year. If the volume of our money U not Increased as fast as our population. It must be plain to every one that there must be a steadily In creasing scarcity of money. And ft Is disputed by any Intelligent student of the currency question that, as money shrinks in volume relatively to the numlier of people who use ft and the amount of business to be* d me with it, the purchasing power of money Increases, all prices fall. Including the wages of labor, business becomes unprofitable, In dustries are suspended, and all*tbe evils have to be endured whlrb are to be summed up In these twow irds, “bard times. It Is the Recorder’s Ides that on this basis of calculation there should bo at least $59,000,000 added to our circulation every year. This country has the largest civilized population in the world. It ia the greateet in commercial and industrial activity, and It la growing at a rapid rate. If it remained a stationary coun try It would still need a larger per cap! ta circulation than that of any Xuropean nation, and it follows that under existing conditions our volume of currency should receive additions to keep pace with the yearly growth of our popula tion and business. These facts have never been ar iicient- ly enlarged upon la our financial dis cussions* but they are of controlling Im portance and should be kept before the people.—Constitution. The “Little Georgia Wonder,” Mrs. Annie Abbott; better known as Mrs. Dixie Hsygccd, has returned to her home in MUledgeville after two years' absence In Europe, where she exhibited her wonderful powers. An enthusiastle newspaper correspondent, who has seen her In MUledgeville, reports that she bring* back with her a fortune, her jew els alone being worth $60,000, nearly all of them gifts from admiring foreigners. “This country is suffering not from the scarcity of money, but from a re dundancy of money,”—W. Bourke Coch ran, spokesman of the administration. Thar* ta no need to send elsewbere^for job printing. Patronize home Industrie*.

The prediction that the lords would defeat home rule by 400 to 40 was more titan sustained, tha vote against the bill being -41° to 41 for U. As a rule, the attendance In the upper f- bouse rarely exceeds twenty-live. But there are 999 lords, and the home rule excitement brought oat the almoetun precedented number of 460. Members who were hunting or traveling la dis tant lands came home to vote, sod the | sick left their beds, risking death Itself order to defeat the will of the people. Those who are familiar with the tec* ord of thaae noble hereditary ataammen knew fn advance how they would vote. During the prseeni century the loedn have opposed the nusmintnasy time*. They rejected the hills appointing a committee on sdnetlon; ahoUahing the death penalty foe tsaRnc goods of the value of 3 shUfisgs; entaNlahiwg relig ious liberty sad giving political liberty to the Jews. They opposed the politi cal reform bilie ta the thirties, causing bloody riots sad a ran en the Bash of England. They fought sanitary man ures sixteen yean, and seven times voted down the bill enfranchising the Jews. In 1844 they opposed the repeal of the act making It a crime for a Roman Cath olic to teach a child to read. They ■isted the bill disestablishing the Irish church, and the bill extending the fran chise to 2,000,000 house holders. Despite their opposition to all these measures they finally had to support them. It will be the same In the cate of Irish home rule. Mr. Gladstone will go to the country on the issue; the com mons will again pass the bill, and the lords will have to vote on it a second time. Unfortnnxtly Mr. Gladstone does not expect to lire to tee the complete triumph of the cause which he has served so ably and faithfully. It ia to be hoped that he la mistaken. Although he is now in his eighty-fourth year his intellectual and physical vigor are such as to make it not at all Improbable that his life will be spared a few years long er. But, whether ha lives or dies, hit record already made up Is so splendid and stainless that the grand old man' place in history and In the hearts of tha people la assured for all time to come. Exchange. Mr. Bisseli. says that the way a man votes on the silver question will have nothing to do with the patronage ia hi* department. Representative Latimer, of South Carolina, called at the poet office department to see If he could get some postmasters for his district, 'as has been unable to name any. Mr. Bisseli told him that be had heard that he bad made derogatory speeches of Mr. Cleveland after the nomination, where upon Latimer acknowledged that be had and said that he still could sustain them. Mr. Bisseli said this would be the stum bling block, but told him that as long be suggeated good democrats and did not name republicans or third partyltes, he would not call him to aeoount. Confidence Is returning and still titers’has not been any repeal of the Sherman law. If a normal condition restored while congress Is dickering over compromises, It will prove a boon to silver and do more than anything else to keep the white metal afloat In this country. If the friends of silver can hold out long enough to prove the cry against the Sherman law a false cry, whioh some seem to think they are now doing, the message to congress will prove a boomerang to tha gold standard men.

Nelms says: Atlanta, Ga., Aug. 14,1893. For the past two years I have used King’s Royal Germetuer in my prac tice and with most satisfactory re sults. I have used It in Typhus, Ty phoid and Bilious Fevers, and al ways with the speediest and best effects. It lowers the temperature and breaks up fevers of all kinds common to this latitude, more ex pedltloualy than any remedy within myTtnowledge. From my own ex perience in Ita use, upon myself and upon others to whom I have recom mended and administered It I be lieve It would be a good remedy for Yellow Fever. It ia a mottexcellent antiseptic, cures Catarrh, Insomnia, Night Sweats and Eczema in all ita forms. King’s Royal Germetuer is emphatically a safe remedy and leaves no injurious effects in the system. Tuscumbia, Ala., June 27, ’93.
