Under treatment at the institution, Mr.
Davis improved rapidly and he returned
to his home with every prospect OF an
early and complete restoration to health.
Tuesday, May 4th, however, he con-
tracted heavy cold which soon deyel-
oped into pneumonia and his already
weakened condition could not endure il
and thus his life was suddenly termina-
ted. His funeral took place from the
Church at Taylorsville last Tuesday af-
ternoon, and was largely attended. Mr..
Davis was very worthy gentleman and
. consistent christian. He was in the
5lst year of his age. His wife was

Daily tobacco leaf-chronicle. (Clarksville, Tenn.) 1890-1895, 1891-05-29

Democracy is now shaken up by
two extremes. If it can survive
both and elect the next President, it
will forever be invincible. On the
one hand is the impractical CleVe.
land men and gold advocates want
ing to push silver and everything
else aside and run Cleveland again
on the one idea of tariff reform.
Suppose we do, and suppose we
could elect him, what good could he
do? There is no chance to reform
the tariff with the present members
in the Senate, who will be there dur.
ing the next administration. The
Republicans will certainly stand by
their former acts. Then there is the
sub.treasury folly and the other eX-
treme. Don't our Alliance friends
know that they cannot possibly
pass a sub-treasury bill in the Senate
during the next administration
Suppose we could elect Mr.. Cleve-
land and pass the silver bill contrary
to his wishes; honest rs he is,
wouldn't he certainly veto it? Then
wouldn't the administration fail to
accomplish anything aud disgust
the people again, and have to step
down and out and move?
The last session of Congress, under
the leadership of Senator German,
gave the country an example of
practical and sensible politics.
Though In the minority, the Senate
defeated the force bill and passed the
free coinage bill. Now we have the
House in line with the Senate on
Daily tobacco leaf-chronicle. (Clarksville, Tenn.) 1890-1895, 1891-05-29

that measure, and all we need is a
President who will approve free
coinage and this done it will lead to
tariff reform. Now is this not the
sensible thing for cur Alliance friends
to do, drop the sub-treasury and in
vite the Democracy in, electing
free coinage President, and try that
while and see If silver won't meet
all of their demands, before plunging
into an uncertainty, for a measure
that is to say the least, class legisla-
ton and contrary to every principle
upon which the organization is
founded? Better reason about this
matter before running off after wild
schemers.
