Tho Silver Bill.
The confiMf'iKM) committees of the
Semite and House at Winliington have
agreed upon tlie silver hill. Asa mat
ter of course its provisions are unsatis
factory to ths South ami a large ele
ment in the farther West.
The hill provides that the Treasury
shall purchase each month 4,500,000
ounces of silver hellion, at a price not
exceeding $ I for 1171. iiiVlOOths grains of
pure silver, and shall issue "silver bul
lion treasury notes” in payment of such
purchases; that such treasury notes
shall be redeemable on demand in coin,
and shall he a legal tender in payment
of all debts, public und private, except
where otherwise expressly stipulated
in the contract, and receivable for all
customs, taxes and public dues; that
the secretary shall, until the first day
of July 1801, coin 2,000, (XX) ounces of tho
silver bullion thus purchased each
month, and nfter that time he shall
coin us much as may be necessary to
provide for the redumption of the treas
ury notes provided for by the bill. An
other section provides for covering into
the treasury the funds held by the
national banks ns security for deposits.
The bill declares that it upholds the
ixilicy of the United Htates to maintain
the two tuetals (gold and silver) upon a
parity with each other upon the pres
ent legal ratio (10 to 1) or such ratio as
may be provided by law.
Tho free coinage feature, which the
silver men insisted upon as necessAty
to securo relief from monetary strin
gency, was obnoxious to the money
kings and monopolists, and was there
fore left out of the bill.
The exception above specified as to
“legal tender in payment of debts,”
virtually nullifies its efficiency and dis
parages the value of silver.

The Campaign In Pennsylvania.
Tit K gubernatorial campaign is warm-
tug up In I’fliu.sylvaniu. Tho Republi
can loader is Dulamatur, Doss Quay’s
man. The Democrats liuvo nominated
Jxx-(iovornor l’uttison, whoso adminis
tration in tho early eighties was so sig
nally clean and business-like. Kx-
Lieutunant-Governor Jlluck is again as
sociated with him on tho ticket and
much enthusiasm is already kindling
oyor the "old ticket.” J’owdorly, who
is at tho head of the great labor organi
zation, seems to be taking soma inter
est iiptho canvass. Speaking recently
U|t Moudow Brook, Mr. l’owderly, after
scoring Tom Flail for his action in tlc-
bwting No v York’s plan for the
World's Fair, thus paid his respects
to l)o»s Quay und 111* friends, tiio mo-
in; polios;
“A few days ago a convention was
held, and t hrough tlm iiilluenco of Mat t
Quay, a favorite son ol the Standard
Oil Company was noniimited for Gov
ernor,, and the will of thousands of the
volofq of t he State was thus set asid
In eomparisnn with the power of tiie
Mtlindnrd' Oil Company the king of
England was u ha by. That, corporation
is a menace to church ami state and peo
ple every where, A new declaration of
independence is needed, and tho men
wlto should make it arc t lio laborers

Gkn\ Hai.dky, superintendent of the
Federal census at New Orleans, esti
mate* that the population will be found
to be between &!K,000 and 240,000. This
closely approximates the enumeration
by tho State census of tills year. Hut
tho Timet-Demncrut insists that full
justice cannot bo done to New Orleans
by any census taken in tho summer
time, because of the Absence then of so
large a portion of the city’s population.
The Meriwether Alliance.
Columbus KiiquIri-r-Sun.
It lias been reported the (’ol. Heftiy
«. Harris was* Rosing fir the Alliaftfce
vote, nnd expfeted tlie formers of the
1* ourtli to bdbst him liack into Con-
uress. I f t lie report la correct, the action
of the Meriwether county Alliance nu
'1 uesdny leaves him badly in the lurch,
as it endorsed Hon. C. ],. Moses,of Cow
eta,, fflr Congress. If the Meriwether
Alliance is strong enough in the coun
ty to elect the delegates to the district
convention, where will it leave Col.
Harris ns a candidate? If he cannot
go into the convention with the en
dorsement and support of his own
county, what, can he expect from other
counties? Unless, then, he can carry
the county in the primary, he will l>e
left alone, and without a following to
urge him noon the conventioh, and in
the general opinion, lie will be compell
ed to with draw from the rare. So the
Meriwether primary may set tie the fate
of one of tlie prominent candidates,
and tile result of it will therefore be
awaited witli great interest.

An Able Representative.
Atlanta Journal.
Among tiie most faithful Represen
tatives in the lust General Assembly
was Hon. W. II. Daniel, of Heard comi
ty. lie was seldom missed from Ills
seut, and at great inconvenience would
remain ovor on Sat unlay in order that
a quorum might not be wanting. He
voted ngainst the summer session, and
in every way that he could, by linrd
work and prompt attention to his
duties,attempted to shorten thesossion.
He was among the faithful seventy-
seven that voted for the Olive bill, and
we are glad to learn t.hnt he is u can-
dtdute for re-election in his county, and
we take it for granted that his people
will indorse him by a handsome majori
ty. While ho is a lawyer, yet he is an
extensive farmer also, running a ten-
horse farm near his home. Colonel
Daniel hus been a Senator as well us a
Representative, and long experience in
legislative matters has made him a tit
Representative of his people.

Ear-ache.
Woman’* Work.
Ear-ache, a very painful and com
mon disorder of children, is best reliev
ed by hot footbaths; by dropping into
the ear a few drops of laudanum and
warm sweet oil: by the application of a
warm brick, or bag of hot salt over the
ear; or by putting a ball of cotton into
the bowl of a pipe, dropping on it a few
drops of chloroform, and then blowing
the vapor into the ear by putting the
bowl of the pipe over the oar und blow
ing through tho stem of the pipe.
If there is a "rising” in the ear, ap
ply warm mush i>oultices, or a hop
jioultice, and when tiie boil or rising is
‘ripe,” it must lie opened.
Wax in tho ear may cause ear-ache or
“risings.” This is to bo removed by
dropping in a little glycerine and gent
ly syringing a few hours after with warm
water. No uttempt should be made to
remove it by picking with hairpins, or
fir
gouging with hairpins.

France Retaliate!.
The Senate has shown its hnnd plain
ly in regard to American questions.
After a long debate, on July 5th, it
voted iu fuvor of a duty of threo francs
on corn, anti supplemented this by im
posing a duty of six francs on corn
meal. During the closing debate, it
wee distinctly avowed that the duty
on corw-^wAa to be considered only a
continuation of tho nine-yeur-old policy
toward American pork.
Comte Foucker DoCareil declared that
the Importation'of American pork was
only another mode of the Importing of
American corn, and tho French ftirmors
could not maintain thomselves against
it. The prohibition of pork was right
and ought to be maintained, and the
duty on corn should also be made pro
hibitive.
Mr. Millatid called nttontion to the
4act the American pork Is only prohibi
ted on the ground of its alleged uu-
Iwalthfulness. He declared that this
ie* merely a pretext. Other members
replied that it is right, and that pro
hibit ion ought to be maintained.
An article published in the Temps,
which is thought to reflect the views of
the government, suggests that there
ought to be circumstauces under which
it might be desirublo to withdraw the
prohibition against pork.
"Ik there is ono man in the Fourth Con
gressional district who ought to realize
that the debt of gratitude due by the
people has long since been paid, that
man is Henry R. Harris, lie has cither
been in office or diligently seeking a
place of houor and protit for eighteen
long weary years. During all theso
years the people, without stint, have
opened wido their hands and given him
of their bounty the good tliiugs he has
asked. Has he been paid for his sacri
fices £dr the dear people? It is estima
ted that #50,000 would nQt cover the
amount he has token in for hi; valuable
servicep. ..We have no tight to make on
Harris, He is a most estimable gentle
man, and a Christ iangentleman at that,
but be has been well paid for all he
has ever done, and it does seem he
ought to be satisfied.’’—IFesf Point

ed me uu this question that 1 was no

would not be, although I have been
urged nnd almost begged to be a candi

from tho fact that it would be almost
stly

might be that 1 would fail to do the

Thanking my friends again for the warm

Through tho instrumentality of the
Alliance tho fanners are educating
themselves on the many economic ques
tions of tiie hour as they never did be
fore. Through its efforts Congress has
made more efforts in behalf of the
wealth.producers than ever before with
in twenty-live years. In the past great
monopolies alone made demands; but
at last, through education and agitation
by the agencies of the Alliance and sim
ilar organizations, the industrial classes
have become aroused to their real inter
est. The introduction of the anti-trust
bill, and lard bill, the several bills au
thorizing the Government to loan mon
ey to tho farmers at a very low rate of
nterest anti some others, were doubt
less prompted by demands made for
legislation by the farmers. It is need
less to say this is creating a sensation
