The Washington Post wisely re

Some of the papers in the Second
iistrict seem to be very much in
Joubt as to Bro. Russell’s position on
the financial question. Mr. Russell’s
friend* in the Uth have no doubt as
to his position. He is for sound
money and opposed to the unlimited
coinage of silver, and he is right as
usual.
The trouble with some of our ail*

An enterprising Washington news
paper offered a prize to the first per

and not one of them struck upon the
name of Marion. Eight hundred
and ninety guessed thalfc it would be
named Naomi. If the President is
still sensitive' to public opinion he
will make a memorandum of the Na

in a letter asking .Secretary Carlisle to
prevent the inq*ortation into this coun-
tiy from Mexico of “sundry bulls and

Mr. Ballou says such importation is
contrary to law, and he warns the par

the hope that the society will not be

Notes From Patterson’s Speech.
We commend the following extracts
from the speech of Hon. Josiali Patter
son, of Memphis, Tenn., delivered at
Savannah recently, to the thoughtful
consideration of our readers:
I challenge the advocates of free
coinage of silver to look abroad over
the world, in either hemisphere, or on
any continent, and name one country
where trade and commerce flourish ; one
country where the Christian virtues
enoble the lives of men and women, and
from whence Christian philanthropy
sends out missionaries in the name of the
Master to subdue the world; one country
where the mechanical arts and ap
pliances are manifested in the develop
ment of industry and enterprise; one
country where science is laying bare the
secrets of nature; one country where
schools and colleges are cherished; one
country where intellect and culture are
in the ascendant; one country where
good government prevails; or one coun
try where a day’s wages is sufficient to
maintain the man who earns it in com
fort and independence, which has the
silver standard.
“ I prefer the gold standard, because
I am in sympathy with the cotton pro
ducers of the south. It is not a matter
of choice with them. They have either
to abandon the production of cotton or
make it to sell in the open markets of
the world. 68 per cent of all the cotton
the Southern people produce is sold
in gold countries. If we become a silver
standard country, then will the cotton
producers become the victims of the
money changers of the world. The pro
cess by which the cotton will be ex
changed for gold, and then silver will
be an expensive 6ne. Not only would
the vacillations in the price of silver be
an expensive one. Not only would the
vacillations in the price of silver be an
element of risk which would affect the
price of cotton, but the producer would
suffer another loss in exchanging the
gold for silver.”
A laboring man in the United States
gets for a day's work nearly twice as
much in gold as a laboriug man in
Mexico gets in silver, and the purchas
ing power of American money is nearly
twice as great as that of Mexico. Draw
the comparison between England and
Russia, or even between heathen
Turkey, which is a gold country, and
heathen China, which is a silver country,
and you will find the same result ,all of
which goes to show that labor cannot
earn good wages without the prosperity
of agriculture, commerce and manufac
tories, and these cannot prosper without
a safe and reliable standard of value.”
I challenge each and even.’ man in
this great audience to name one country
in all the world where the free coinage
of silver obtains that is not absolutely
on a silver basis. No one has answered,
for no such country exists. Therefore,
I say, that the irresistible conclusion is,
that Mr. Cleveland was right when he
said that the proposition to coin silver
as the standanl money, at the ratio of 16
to 1, means neither more nor less than
the establishment of silver monomet-
alisrn in the United States/'

The Movable Refugee Camp.
The refugee camp which is being pre
pared at Waynesville, on the site of the
old Camp Detention, is attracting con
siderable attention. The sole object of
the camp is to have in readiness for in
stant transportation to any point every
thing necessary for a detention camp.
The camp wjll be finished in about
three weeks. Surgeon Nydegger and
Stewart Richardson, of the Marine Hos
pital service, have the work in charge.
The equipment will include.250 tents,
with all necessary furniture, cooking out
fit?;. etc. Sixty thousand feet of lumber
is to be used in building tent floors.
A mad bull on the streets of Thomas-

Jasper Higginbotham, foreman of the

DvaVs station, had a warrant for a ne

fired on him with a pistol, the fire was
returned and both were fatally shot.
The Jones County News says that “the
attitude of the democratic party on the
currency question must be settled by the
democratic party itself. This thing of
calling populists in to help settle it
won’t do. The declaration of a conven
tion called by a faction and composed
half and half of populists and demo
crats cannot have much force and no
body will pay much attention to it.
Such a. convention as a democratic as
semblage is a farce. *
