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.

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.

The tax payers and juries wit take a dhtcrent view of tne evu tnen end quickly Ibid ways to end if 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 quence* ot its act* la fact, the mob 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.

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. T. I-nrry Gnntt, along with his two sons, having been thoroughly thrashed on a street of tho South Carolina town where he uotv Uvea, admitted before the police court that nil the fault was his anil paid tho lino of everybody con cerned.
