All that has to be done is for the
people to let these coupons alone and
there is no power on earth can interfere
with or dictate our financial policy.
And is there anything dishonorabie in
refusing to buy coupons? These
brokers are trying to persuade our peo-
pie to take into their hands an instru-
ment which will inevitably bring dis
aster If not business death to Virginia,
and it is the only instrument that can
possibly be used in that work.

Great interest centres in the course
that the new Administration will pursue
concerning this extensive interest, which
sgitates the producers so violently.
Enough has been disclosed to show that
the Cabinet will act with common-sense
business intelligence, and it is now
generally understood that the standard
Of excellence will be DUrFY's PURE
MALT wHrsKEy, which is made by
new scientific process that absolutely
eliminates all traces Of infammatory or
injurious ingredients, and is the very
best remedy for dangers arising from
sudden climatic changes, and a COM
plete safeguard against pneumonia,
scarletfeyer, diphtheria. and debilita-
ting fevers. The leading physicians
recommend that it be kept in every
family, and all reliable grocers and
druggists will supply it.

Never IN Trouble Again.

At o'clock last night Marshal Eek :
hart and Officer Cary arrested L. Meyer,
of the Fulton market. upon the strength
of a warrant issued by u Davenport in
stitution, charging him with obtaining
money under false pretenses The Gazette
says that 'some time in September he
came over to Davenport and made GER
tain representations TO the proprietors of
the Phoenix mills, by which he was en-
abled to secure about sixty dollars worth
of flour Time passed. and these repre-
sensations that were made proved false,
and furthermore the sixty dollars seemed
to be greatly like y minus quantity. His
vast amount OF real estate, which would
be the best of security for the flour,
failed to materialize. An inform alton
was filed by the mills against Meyer, and
| the Rock Island authorities We're instruct
cd 10 keep their Heather optics peeled,
which they kindly did. 1t is probable
that Meyer will be bound over for the
| next term of district court
