Wc hold to the use of both gold and silver as the standard money of the country, and to the coinage of both gold and silver with¬ out discrimination for mintage, against but the either dollar in eta], unit or of charge both metals must be of equal in¬ coinage of trinsic and exchangeable value or be adjust¬ ed through international agreement, or by such safeguards of legislation as shall insure the maintenance of the parity of the two met ills and the equal power of every dollar at all times in the markets ami in the payment of debts; and we demand that all paper curren¬ cy shall be kept at par with and redeemable iii such coin. Wo insist, upon this policy as especially necessary for the protection of the farmers aud laboring classes, the fiist and most defenseless victims of unstable money and a fluctuating currency.—Currency Plank of the National Democratic Platform. Upon the great question of currency, we reiterate the principles and purposes of our national platform, indorsed with such unpar¬ alleled unanimity by the people in 1892. and urge upon our senators and president,a representatives iu congress, and upon our speedy repeal of the prohibitory tax upon the issue of state banks. We demand the immediate passage of such legislation us will restore silver to its constitutional position the ns free a money metal, and will secure at once and untilited coinage of gold and silver on a parity, and give to every dollar in circula¬ tion, whether coin or paper, the same debt paying and purchasing power.—Currency Plank of the State Democratic Platform. Tammany is done for. Last week’s election killed it, and the addition of Brooklyn and other adjoining cities will help to ketp it dead. ’---- « -«*- • --------- The House finance committe has made one move in the direction of economy, having reported favora¬ bly the hill reducing the salaries of railroad commissioners from $2,500 to $2,000. ---- —. • ---- • The Japanese and Chinese war continues, with honors in favor of the Japs. The rat eaters seem to have no backbone, and are easily put to flight by their enemies in every engagement. They are anx¬ ious for peace, hut it is not likely to come until their empire is bro¬ ken up. A bill providing for the election of judges and solicitors by the peo¬ ple has been reported adversely by the House committee on general judiciary. It seems that senti¬ ment is rather in favor of placing their appointment in the hands of the governor, and a hill will prob¬ ably be introduced to that effect. -------- • • —— A certain old farmer had neg¬ lected *his crops, so much so that his corn patch presented a rather sickly appearance; but he than!ed God for the consolation that his was not the only patch that look¬ ed “yaller.” The southerd popu¬ lists find great consolation in fact that they were not the only ones who were defeated in last week’s election. • ♦ • New York will soon be the Jarg cst city in the world ia area, and second only in population, a hill having been passed by the New York legislature providing for con solidatiing New York, Brooklyn, Jersey City, Hoboken and other suburbs of the metropolis of the new world. The population of the new municipality will be over 3,000,000—next to London, with her 5,000,000. This, from ti:e Florida Lnnn, Tr . is verv encouraging: . ur “During , the next two years the “ republicans ... will ... be , powerless , . , 1 legislation. . . , .. mi I ■ i pass any neir only power will be to prevent demo cratic legislation. During the next two the condition of ,, the years country will .... and ... the dem- , improve ocrats will get the credit for it and if they will learn from their de- feat to quit quarreling amo'.g themselves, will define their party principles and stick to them, they will inflict a more crushidg defeat on their adyersaries in 1836 than they snstained yesterday.” “A WHITE ELEPHANT.” Comparing last week’s landslide with that of two years ago, there is no certainty that another slide may not take place in 1896. Regarding this possibility, the Augusta Chronicle says: “There is iittle doubt that the republicans were as much surpris¬ ed at the result of the recent elec¬ tion as the democrats themselves, and after the first flush of victory is over, and the responsibility of the situation begins to loom up be¬ fore the g. o. p., it will be like the unhappy fellow in “Wang,” “with an elephant on his hands.” It is a mighty easy matter to laugh and poke fun at another fellow on skates, but when he takes them off and we put them on, we find that the fun goes on just the same,— but we are not in it. The possi¬ bilities are that the next Congress may furnish just as much room for criticism as the present, but the republicans will not be in a po¬ sition to enjoy it. “No more tariff legislation will be possible for them, and the dem¬ ocrats could wish for nothing bet¬ ter than for the republicans to re¬ peal the income tax. The great problem before the country is that of finance, and while the republi¬ cans would doubtless like to settle it, they are as much divided on the subject as the democrats. It is not a problem to be solved satisfacto¬ rily to all classes the first guess, and republicans will have a bad quarter of au hour when they tackle it. “In the Senate the republicans will have a helpless majority, and one they can never depend upon. They will be worse off with their populist balance of power than the Democrats were with a nominal majority in the preseut. Senate, and will find themselves entirely unable to force legislation. From a purely stragetio standpoint, and looking at the election as a play for position, it is a very open ques¬ tion if the republicans have hurt themselves by their tremen¬ dous victory. They have shifted all responsibility from the shoul¬ ders of the democrats to their own, and will, nevertheless, be unable to carry out any legislation that will be calculated to strengthen them before the people. They have been ridiculing democratic incom¬ petence, and are iu great danger of making a spectacle of themselves in turn. They have throughout the present campaign charged the hard times upon the democratic party and promised good times if republicans were elected. The peo¬ ple have put the beer on them, so to speak, and if they do cot re¬ deem their promise they will be thrown overboard lock, stock and barrel. “A thoughtful man said yester¬ day that he regarded as the most hopeful phase of the recent land¬ slide the notice that had been serv ed on both the old parties that the people were independent of either, and would overthrow one as quick¬ ly as the other if recreant to its obligations, Two years ago the republican party was overwhelm¬ ingly defeated. The defeat of the democrats this year could not mean a reversal of public opinion on the issues they decided two years ago, but simply meant dissatisfaction with the democrtic administration, The election means that the people are on top and not the party. It meaps that the people mean to con trol parties, and not allow parties and party machines to control them. It is a hopeful sign. It presages better government. means that the people are alive to their interests, and knowing rights . w dare . . them. ,, ° maintain Tins , . mav be encouraging . country, , hut it does not add ,, “ .. . <V j 15 ?. 1J ^ lK im ° le ^. nU / ' < ° ] KU ' u U Com l > 1 es “ the tremendous contract that it has , , , lie T , laughs , beet , laughs Jast? aud ther ^ may not be much hilarity in the republican in 1896.” LOOKING FOR THE REASON. It is in order now for every pol¬ itician and every newspaper to bring forward a reason for the re¬ publican landslide of last week. Those of the populist persuasion will tell us that it is a demand for free silver; but the falling oft’in populist representation in congress suggests the fallacy cf that the ory. The republicans will tell us that it is a demand for a re-adoption of the McKinley bill; but the Mc¬ Kinley bill was in full swing when the people ousted the republicans, which fact indicates that the peo¬ ple can hardly be charged with be¬ ing in love with that iniquity. We btdieve that it is the result of a lack of sufficient common sense upon the great bulk of vot¬ ers m this country to form opin¬ ions for themselves, the conse¬ quence being that they don’t know what they want, and are just s .vung from side to side by the ut¬ terances of loud-meuthed irre¬ sponsible politicians. Both republicans and populists have left nothing unsaid in their efforts to convince the people that all the disasters of the past year— storms, train robkeriee, fires and floods—were attributable to dem¬ ocratic legislation, and thousands of ignorant voters have been fools enough to think that may be it was so. ----- A bill introduced into the legis¬ late by 1 Mr. Houston, of DeKolb, makes it a misdemeanor far a street railway to run open cars be¬ tween October and April. It not pass until another bill, mak¬ ing it a misdemeanor punishable by chaingang or fine, “or both, at the discretion of the court,” shall have been put through, providing that the temperature shall not go above 80 ° during that time. THEY WANT PROTECTION. Brunswick laborers are leaving the city, on the pretext that they are being driven out by competi¬ tion ; and the merchants of the city are disgruntled, and do not think that imported laborers should be allowed to stand iu the way ef home muscle. The Times moves that a staked-and-ridfcred fence be around Brunswick, and every idle boy in the city put on guard with a Winchester. Let the work to be done iff* city all be given to men living in the city, and let these workmen obliged to do all their trading with merchants of the city; then com¬ pel these merchants to confine their sales to people residing in the city, and make the country people go to some other city to sell their produce. Let this strict reg¬ ulation be enforced until the mer¬ chants and laborers of the city Brunswick learn that this is a thoroughly free country, in which men do pretty much as they please —sometimes. If Brunswick shall fail to learn this lesson, then let her secede and set up a little kingdom of her own, and adopt a revised edition of the McKinley tariff law, ---« -M-- Another issue of $50,000,000 of government bonds is to be made, Secretary Carlisle having issued circulars calling for bids. This is made inevitable by the fact that the gold reserve has now r leached a point where it could be completely wiped out by a few heavy ship ir outs nul it is thought to he the part of wisdom not to wait until the gold in the treasury is practi¬ cally exhausted before making an effort to recoup. NOT SO. Says the Tampa Daily Times: “The election of Mr. Bacon as Senator from Geoogia is a distinct triumph believe in for those and democrats immediate who the free coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1.” The election of Mr. Bacon is no such thing. In his speech before the . ... legislature . Mr. „ Bacon insisted . . . . ” the necessity of , maintaining . , . . upon the parity of the gold and silver ’ and stated emphatically 1 that .. 1 must , he done , somehow. , T He r 1 .. it his , . idea ., that . interuation- . . as agreement was the most reliable and the most desirable of all meth* for reaching this end. A resolution which was intro duced into the Georgia legislature demanding the immediate and un¬ conditional coinage of silrer at the ratio of 16 to 1 was squelched by the very crowd that elected Maj. Bacon to the United States sen¬ ate. Will Buy All Your Cotton. I will say to the farmers and merchants that I now have orders for cotton and will buy freely, giving highest limits, spot cash, no trade, no drafts but money paid you in Statesboro. I am prepared to buy any amount in one day. I am having Sea-island cotton seed selected on the islands, as there is great need of them iu this country, and it will be well for all parties who wish to obtain them to place their orders with me, and have them de¬ livered later for planting season and profit thereby. Respectfully, N. R. Lee. It Has Went Off. A story is told of a certain showman who combined with the ordinary circus performance a display of fireworks, says the Pittsburg Dispatch. At one town he advertised the “Battle ol Trafalgar,’’ with burning ships, blazing oceans and other magnificent effects. He drew such a vivid picture of that great naval en¬ counter that the people from that entire countryside were attracted to see it. When the time arrived the showman brought his guiding hand to bear,on the set piece, applied the match in the usual manner and retired to await results. Sev e - al minutes passed, but no battle ensu¬ ed. The showman then stepped forward and addressed the crowd. “It has not went off,” lie remarked. “I will now show you the earth quake of Lisbon.” He gathered the fireworks to¬ gether, and filled a barrel with them. He poured turpentine over them, sprinkled the lot freely with gunpowder, and once more applied the torch with astonishing results. When all was over he gave a parting address. “It has went off, ladies and gentlemen, Good and so has three of my fingers. evening, and many thanks. The earth¬ quake will not be repeated.” FOR THE LADIEsTnLY. Did you know that to look well you should dress stylish? If you want the latest go to Olliff & Co’s.
