A CAMPAIGN CANARD.
bera of the Young Men'# Democratic
Club ought to be presumed to know at
leant the namo of their orgnnlxatton.
It ahnuld be regarded as certain that
the ofllclols of the organization, au
thorized to sign for It; know that name.
But atronger oridencu of fraud Is tne
fact that in the letter la aahl exactly
what the Populista would like for Dem
ocratic officials to say. In It farmen,
railroad men and workingmen gener-
ally, from whom the Populists seem to
expect support, arc repeatedly Insulted,
nud vulgar boasts made of the power
of Democrats to cheat With Impunity.
Of oouno' it Is possible that there Is
a Democrat fool enough to write such
a letter, but not at all probable. - Even
foul Democrats do not play Into the
hand of the enemy with such wonderful
pa luces. All the probabilities are that
some thorough-going Populist, - with
aoiue Intelligence but no conscience to
protect him against the crime of forg
ery, furnished Mr. Poe with thin bit ft
campaign material. If be bas curiosity
aa to tbo- author, he should inquire
among his political friend*
Wo shall sec whether Mr. Watson,
with Ills high professions of political
morality, will try In Ills turn to undo
the wrong be has done the young Dem
ocrats of Bibb.

cause the signs of fraud on tho fire or

iug themedvee on tho attention of the
loader.
In tho first place, there is no such or-
paniutloh la Macon en the "Young
Jim's Democratic League." and mem-
Tuo or three yearn ago a convention
of negro**, held nt Indianapolis, we
tiellovo, suggested aa a remedy for lynch-
ing that every county in widen such a
crime occurred should bo mnlctcd In fi
connldcmblo aum, any $10,000, for tho
aupport of tlio victim’s family. Tho
proposition did not. attract much at
tention nt tbo time, but wo gee that
l-ow It la boiug favorably com
mented upon by several of the most
indnoutlal of our Southern exchanges.

Aud on this tho Memphis Commercial
comments by saying that "Ihcro Is 11
great deiu of vlrtuo In tho suggestion
anil the next legislature should consider
It." Wo think ourselves that Ihcro Is
some merit In It, though perhaps not
os much as those who brought It for
ward iwngtue. Wo do uot doubt that
some lynching* where the victim has
been guilty of 11 peculiarly atrocious
erinio against a woman, are parcel
paled iu l<y practically all the people
of the communities iu which they oc
cur. • The community it therefore re
sponsible, and under such clrcumstihiccs
there Is always, If not Justlttcurron for
tbo erlnie, at least very much to palliate
It. But In many cases the lynching Is
done by men who contribute very ltttlo
to the tux funds ot tho counties in
which they live, aud would be little re
strained by the fear that tha property
of other men would bo heavily taxed
because of their crime.
That this remedy in suggested and ad
vocated Is proof, however, that tho
people of tho South aro awakening to
tho daugera involved In the growth ot
the lynching evIL The growth of that
evil, which recently culminated in tho
mutder ot six negro prisoners near
Memphis, must bo checked. Tho feel
ing that It must be, wo believe, Is grow
ing to be universal among our people.
In our opinion, the boat remedy Is that
of which there has been a partial ap
plication In Virginia and North Caroli
na— tho doing away with dolnya In
court, insuring prompt punishment to
brute* accused of the crime which gen
erally provokes lynching. It Is true
that tho trial under such clreustanccs
of n man accused ot a capital crtiuo
may not be what It should bo-calm, do-
llberato aud careful of the rights of the
accused.- It may be said that convic
tion under such circumstances would bo
almost certain; that the proceeding
would merely be lynching by the atale’*
Wheel's aud accenting to the forma of
law. Tills would not bo wholly tnie.
but oven If It were, It would be belter
than lynching by an irresponsible mob.
Uvea bad law regulating such matter*
1* better than no law a: fell. In the
course of time the law may bo chauged
for the better, but there la absolutely
no way to Improve tho processes ot a
mob or of avoiding tho bad conse

In Its proceedings always progress**
towanl greater cr.l—become* raoru vio
lent, more bloody minded, less regard-
fill ot tho rights of other* more con
scious ot Its own Irresponsible power.
The remedy for lynching Is, therefore,
the prompt punishment of criminal* by
ihe law, even though the law Itself bt
Justly open to serious criticism.
any attention to the currency question.
Wo think it new to him because had
he known or believed that the only
value money has Is its exchangeable
value, and that 'that value is deter
mined entirely by the demand for It,
be would not have written some hun
dreds of columns of editorial matter
that have appeared in Ills paper during
recent years. We have understood hint
during those years to assume that the
governmenfg stamp on fifty cents'
worth of silver was sufficient to make
that coin as valuable ns a gold dollar
containing metal worth twice as much
In the market* If he nicans now that
the government stamp will add nothing
to the value of that silver, but that its
value can be Increased only by an in
creased demand for The metal, be takes
quite a different position. It seems to
us that this position is Inconsistent
with a demand for the free coinage of
sliver before the vnluo of time melai
under the new conditions has been as
certained.
We don't think the Constitution can
be In earnest when It says the ex
changeable value of mobey, the only
value It has, la "Imparted to It batfeg-
Ulation, not by creating the valuWmt
by creating the demand far It." If this
proposition tyere true, tho demand for
money would immediately disappear It
nil legal tender laws were repealed;
the world would no longer want any
money If tbe law no longer said what
was money. As tho use of money ante
date* legal tender laws many centu
ries, It is not likely that Uje world
would cease to need money If each laws
were repealed. We do not Think tho
demand for money would be In the
slightest degree diminished by the re
peal of every law affecting the curren
cy, nml wo are not at all certain that
the world would not be better off If
every such law wero repealed.
The Constitution favors free coinage
nt the 10 to 1 ratio. How docs It know
tlmt the added demand In the United
States for silver would double its value'/
If Its vnluo wero not doubled, then
gold nml silver money would have dif
ferent values, nml experience has
shown that under such circumstances
only tho cheaper money circulates—
tluit, In fact, tho dearer money ceases
to lie money nt all, In the seuso of be
ing used ns a medium of exchange nnd
slumlun] of value.
Wo congratulate our contemporary on
Its edging toward the Democratic plat
form on this question. Wo hopo that
before tho Dcmqcratlc party’s tight for
bimetallism is won that It will be
squarely npon that platform, along
with tho Telegraph. . »■
PRAYING FOR PURITY.
Methodist Conference Asks that the
Country Bo Rid of Breckinridge.
Frookfort, Ky.-, Sept, it.—At -the
opening of the Kentucky AledvxhaC con-
u-rcnce here today, the subject of the
congressional election wus warmly dl«-
cussed. Ai'ier routine business had
been taken up. Bishop Duncan raid he
was a great believer m the effleicy of

pmjrers of Just people we.-e -loswered.
He asked that all gojd people Join in

an Interest and national pride In It.
The prsyur was offered amid araens
resounding and filling the whole room
with feeling, for the defeat of Col.
Breckinridge. Such a scene is *ild
never no hare occurred In conference
before.
"O. Lord God of The living, not of the

MIL HARRIS' STATEMENT.
Mr. Harris, whose statement of the
clromnstanccs under which he rcslgueil
from tho state committee we print this
morning, Is a sincere and. .maul? young
Democrat, and we have no disposition
to criticise Ills not harshly. - We think
lie has made a mistake, but for the
harm that that mistake .may do the
party wo do not see that; he Is wholly
responsible. He felt himself-to be in n
false; position and to bo Incapable for
that reason of dolug tho party valuable
service, but lie proposed to-withdraw
quietly, without attracting uttentlon.
That the fact of his resignation im.uo
diatcly beoamo known was not tils
fault. Possibly there is a leak about
tho Democratic headquarters, which
Chairman Clay would do well to atop.
We think Mr. Harris made a mistake
because when ho became a committee
man ho assumed obligations toward
the party which should have restrained/
him from resigning, unji-ss tlio question
of resigning became ono of conscience,
nuil wo do not see that It had become
so In this case. Wo cay this while
agreeing with him, with Chairman Olny
nnd Mr. Cobb, that the Populists ought
to have representation on election
bourds tn thoso counties where they
have an organization.
Nor do we think Mr. Harris ought to
luive feared any embarrassment ns n
public speaker because of tho utter
ances of other Democrats on tho silver
question. The platform leaves him nt
perfect liberty to talk tho stralgUtosf
Democratic doctrine on that question,
no matter what other Democratic speak
ers may talk Populist doctrine.
