The appointment Of Simon Cameron
to the War Department shows strongly
that at Cincinnati the weight OF official
influence will be thrown in favor Of
Conkling. Cameron had held his forces

to Cameron. This opportunity has

Pennsylvania are to support Conkling

The s. 4. Call is usually too much OF
q trimmer to be very interesting. It's
forte is to be all things. to all men con.
sequently II does not amount to much
with any one. But the other day it pub
lished remark worthy OF serious con-
sideration which was this: "If the folly
of demonstrating silver should be per.
sisted in, the consequence would. be a
rise in gold; in other words, a depre-
citation Of all kinds OF property. and
practically an augmentation of national
and private debts" Now the Call must
be given the credit Of stating the whole
matter in about as few words ss possible.
The question is presented in nutshell.
TO demonetize silver is to injure every
one who does not possess large amounts
of gold coin. To demonetize silver is to
give the money changer. the pawnbroker,
the usurer, the money lender an snor-
nous advantage and to depreciate all
other kinds of property. while the hard
lot OF the very poor is rendered still
harder 1t is to increase the amount OF
the debtors liabilities and add to the
dificnlty OF acquiring the means OF dis
charging them. In short to demonetizs
silver Is to legislate in the interest OF the
very rich and against those who are not
so well off.

The kilograms published this morn

cabinet changes. Attorney General
Pierrepont is to become Minister to
Great Britain. Taft. now Secretary Of
War, is TO take the Attorney General
ship aud Simon Cameron Is nominated
as Secretary Of War. The latter ap-
pointnent is one that it is probable will
meet with but little favor in the public
mind. From Belknap to Cameron is to
take few if any steps on tho march OF
improvement. Cameron has for many
years been an INSCRIPTIONS, wirepulling.

the worst character. In the early days
of Lincolns administration. he occupied
the same official position to which be is
now appointed. II not kicked out, be
was forced out of the Cabinet, though
the dose was sweetened by the bestowal
of the mission to Russia. His admins
tration while Secretary, acquired a very
i'll odor which has never been dissi.
pated. To place him again in the same
position must indicate wonderful
dearth of proper material in the party
with which he afIiliates. The change
from Pierrepont to Taft. as Attorney
General is probably for the better.
That Of Pierrepont, to Minister to Great
Britain is not calculated to excite great
enthusiasm or reprobation. Much bet.
ter men might have been had and far
worse ones and that is about all that can
be said.

The LOudOn Times az a re
publican Paper. .

The Loudon Times has ever
since its first breath claimed TO
be a Republican paper, still it has
all, tile time been fighting the
party. Two years ago it did all
in its power to defeat Hon. j, N.
Thornburg for Congress-, and for
no reason under the sun, except
Thornburg wouldn't buy it up.
This time again it is not support.
ing Thornburg who is the regular
nominee Of fair convention and
as sound a Republican as there is
in the Union; and a man whose
character is without a blemish.
But to "cap the stack" the Times
came out last week advising the
counties not to recognize the call
of q Senatorial Convention at
Athens-That it was in the inter
est of some "favorite.' The only
reason we could see for such con.
ductin the Times was that it was
afraid it's pet couldn't be nomi
mated. In other words it knew
that the Republican party
wouldn't nominate a man who
was fighting the only member Of
Congress it had from the State. The
Times had acted very shabby all
the time-So much 50 that it can't
control ten votes. Personally we
we like its editor but politically
he is a fraud.

THE NATIONAL REPUBLICAN,
PLATFORM.

The following is the platform, q.
adopted by the National Republican
Convention that nominated Haye;
and Wheeler:
When in the economy of Provi.
dence this land was to be purged Of
human slavery, and whenthe strength
of the Government of the people, by
the people, for the people, was dem.
onstrated, the Republican party came
in;o power. It's deeds have passed
into history, and we look back tc
them with pride. Incited by their
memories and high aims for the good
of our country and mankind, and
looking to the future with unfalter.
ing courage, hope and purpose, we.
the representatives of the party in
National Convention assembled make
the following declaration of princi.
pies;
First. The United States of Amer
lea as a nation, not q league; by the
combined working of the National
and State governments under Their
respective Constitutions, the rights Of
every citizen are secured at home and
protected abroad, and their common
welfare promoted.
Second, The Republican party
has preserved those governments to
the hundredth anniversary Of the ma
tons birth, and they are now embed
iments of the great truths spoken at
its cradle, that oil men are created
equal; that they r endowed by
their Creator with certain inalienablc
rights, among which are life, liberty
and the pursuit of happiness; that
for the attainment of these ends gov
ernmcnts have been instituted among
men, deriving their just powers from
the consent of tho governed; until
those truths arc cheerfully obeyed, if
needed to be vigorously enforced, the
work of the Republican party is un-
finished. The permanent p~aci6cation
Of the Southern section Of the Union,
the complete protection of all its citi-
zens in the free enjoyment Of all
their rights are duties to which the
Republican party r sacrcdly pledg-
ed. Applause. The power to pro-
vide for the enforcement Of principles
embodied in the recent constitutional
amendments is vested by the amend
ments in the Congress of the United
States, and we declare it to be the
solemn obligation Of tho legislative
and executive departments Of the
Government to put into immediate
and vigorous exercise oil their consti-
tutional powers for removing any
