The Popnlist national convention will meet at St. Louis July 22,1890. CALLING FOB BIS DKNCAT. The Louisville Courier-Journal thus calls for the defeat of the nomi nee of the democratic caucus: "Let the sound money democrats who refuse to vote for Blackburn aland firm to the last. Upon their fidelity to principle depends in a lirgo measure the future of demo cracy in Kentucky. For them to abandon their party and go over to tbe man who, in liia desperate ef forts to advance bis personal inter ests, has well nigh destroyed that party In this state, would be to sur render hopelessly 10 the party’s worst enemy. Blackburn Las re pudiated and obstructed the party’s pledges, defied its authority, bolted its platform. Even now he is seek ing to carry Into the next campaigu the mutiny which proved so disas troua in the last. He represents the democratic party of Kentucky even less than Hunter represents tho re publicans. It would be a misfortune to the state if either should be elect ed its United States senator.’’ The Birmingham State Herald makes this patriotic comment, which The Timks-Rkcobdkj! most strongly endorses: ,; The platform of tbe democrats convention of Kentucky was iden tical with that of the Chicago platform, and each was open to a double .construction. Each was in tended to bo susceptible to such construction as any one might wlah. . Mr. Blackbnrn could stand upon Hand eonatrue it as he pleased, a jd nothing that he said or aid was violative of that platform. "When the legislative caucus me: Mr. Blackburn was nominated a* the party candidate for the annate. He was entitled by virtue of that nomination to receive every demo cratic vote, and had the gold atajd- ard men voted for him after his nomirsMon be would have been ° * m * ■«! s id one more democrat would hare beei added to the senate. The zeapoa•toility for the election of are 4 senator from a democratic state .will rest with the gold atend- ard members and with the Louisville Courier Journal.* ’ Senator Tillman made a very sensational speech in tho senate Wed nesday, iu which he charged that the President had purchased votes in congress with Federal offices; that Secretary Carlisle was a Judas, who bad betrayed his party aud sold out his principles, and unless something was done to grant the relief demand en by tbe people a host with rifles would march ou Washington and take by force wliat should be given them freely by their representatives. Tillman’s speech is said to be tbe most remarkable iu tbo history of the senate and it shocked, surprised and awed the greybeard*. Senator Tillman lias Him ply proven that he is man enough to express freely aud boldly what thouamls think. Tne Athens Banner comments edi tori ally upon tho recent senatorial fake report from Washington: "It must havo been very touching, if not tempting, to the g.tilant Gordon to seo two such dUtirguisiiod rivals for tbe high efficehe had voluntarily rei n qnisbed, como to him with Much a t lei and such a pledge. The incident, how ever, is very improbable, and as Wash ington rumors are often without muoh foundation, nud therefore often liable, we may ns well await further particulars before accepting the allege' incident as a fact. If tho story wor true that General Gordon was approach ed in tbe manner reported, and bo had yielded to tLoir solicitation, the an nouncement of bis reconsideration oi bis declared intention to retire the expiration ot nia term, would have shaken up tbe present Sona'orial situa- ation almost Indescribably. The New Tork Mercury makes the death of Ambassador Runyon the occasion tor declaring that the ofllce of Minister and Ambassador from the United States to Germany haa been something of a hoodoo. It calls to mind! that Bayard Taylor died while holding It. George P. Pendleton, while ita incumbent, received a cable announcement of the fatal injury of his wife in New York, was himself stricken with paralysis not long after, aud died at Wei shaken, whith er he had gone In the hope of re covering hie health. William Walter Phelpe held the office four years, retired from it in fairly good health, and died In this country less than two years later, Aud now, Mr. Runyon, who was apparently well and strong, for his age, has died at hlapost. Says the Ne w York Suu or Sunday "Our Baltimore contemporary, the Manufacturer*’ Record, prints a full review of the business advancement cf the eouth during the last year. We learn from it that in the year the southward movement of population was of unprecedented magnitude; that cotton mill building iu the south was phenomenal; that there was a remarkable revival in tbe iron busi ness; that the output of coal was heavier than in any previous year; that several southern shipyards made large contracts;-and that, in short, the year was one of marvelout success iu all branches of industry. After surveying the field our Balti more contemporary says with pride that in ihe year 1805 *a solid, sub stantial foundation was laid for growth greater tbau any ever before seen in the south, if not lu any other part of the country.' ” Many prominent Cubans in Boston have made arrangements to boom their cause.

Thk senatorial deadlock in Ken tucky continues. That Tired' Feeling Is a certain Indication of Impure and im- povarished blood. If your blood could always be rich and. pure, foil of the red corpuscles upon which its vitality depends, you would never be weak, or Nervous! Bolls, pimples, scrofula, salt rbsum, would aersr trouble you. But our mode ot living, shut In all winter in poorly ventilated bomeo and shops, depletes the Mood and there Is loss of appetite and weakMie. Hood’sSarsa- psrilla.ls tho standard remedy tor this condition. It purifies, vitalize* and enrleha* the blood, overcomes that tired feeling, bolide up the nerves and givee perfect health. Bead this: “Our daughter, Bfcukte/wheu four years eg* had a humor breakout on her hands and face, which dor. physician i pronounced eczema. If the cold sir j reached her face or hands they would swell up,' look almost purple, and headed blisters would form and break, Discharging a watery fluid, and the burn ing and itching would drive her nearly wild./Unless we incased her little hands she would tear patches of akin from her face and hands. We tried many doctors and many remedies and at last gave the case np sa hopeless. But our daughter Cora tried Hoodie Sarsaparilla, to euro s scrofulous lump near the left breast which caused her much pain and after taking 4 bottles it disappeared. Blanche, who la now eleven, had spent seven years of suffer ing, so I concluded to give her Hood’s Sarsaparilla. She took 6 bottles and her face Is smooth and soU as a baby’s, tbe color of a rose petal. Her hands are ■oft and white, where four months ago they were blue and red and calloused nearly like leather. I can- nof express my gratitude by pen or mouth. It seems a miracle and our Wenda are surprised.** Mns. Anna L. Class, 401B. 4th 8t^ Duluth, Minn. - A dispatch from Madrid to the Central News says that as soon as General Weyler, the new captain general of Cuba, arrives in Haysna he will issue a proclamation giving the rebels eight days to lay down their arms and surrender. If they do not do this he will then Inaugu rate a campaign of blood and fire against the rebels and their abettors. Whkn Dr. Henry Battey, of Rome, started to Florida a few days ago he took his two favorite bird dogs along. While he was waiting for the Central to pull oat Id Atlanta, Bostick, a fine setter dog, decided to return to Rome. Ee left Atlanta about four o’clock aud next morning be was found at the office, none the worse for bis iramp of seventy-five miles. Means a good deal in the line of domestic economy. Some folks tliink that if they want furniture, a’l they have to do is to walk into a store and buy it Well, they can walk into a’ store and there will he tnrniture there—even furniture fair to see— but whal store aud what kind of furniture. Aren’t these important questions ? Unless you are setting the stage for a domestic drama, you want furniture that will stand something, and that’s the kind we can sell you. A. W. SMITH.
