Indiana for Free Silver.

Democratic journals are urg-
ing that the party drop the free
coinage issue in order that a platform
may be made to fit Mr.. Cleveland
and look to the solid south and East
ern states to select him, and putting
Indiana in all their calculations and
admit that Cleveland could not be
elected without Indiana, which, it is
claimed is for tariff reform, and not
for free silver. 1t will be remem-
bered that Thurman was put on the
Democratic ticket in 1888 in the hope
OF carrying both Indiana and Ohio,
and silver was left out of the plat
form, and both states were lost as was
also New York. The Birmingham
Age Herald calls attention to this
fact:
"After free coinage bill had been
voted for by the Democrats in Con-
gress last fall the Indiana Democratic
convention put this plank in the
platform;
we denounce the silver bill, so
called, recently enacted, as an ignom-
inious surrender to the money power.
1t perpetuates the decentralization of
silver and the single gold standard,
whereas the interests of the people
require the complete reconciliation
of silver and its restoration to perfect
equality with gold in our coinage.
We demand the free and unrestricted
coinage of silver on the basis existing
prior to 1879
"That is Democratic doctrine in
Indiana, and on that pronounce.
ment the party in that State changed
a Republican plurality of 2,3iS two
years previous into Democratic
plurality of 1919 in 1890.
"The East, that is those States Of
the East which the Democracy has
hopes of carrying, would be of no
avail without Indiana, and that con
sideration alone shows how unad.
visabie it would be to discard the
silver issue i'm order to truckle to
Eastern sentiment"

Uncle Jerry Rusk has been giving

restrictions upon the importation of
American pork into Germany, meet
ing with success. The secretary does
the fair thing in this matter, giving
the credit to Congressman Hatch,
who is leading Democrat of the
House. He says the thanks of the
farmers are due to Mr.. Hatch. But
for his efforts in passing the meat in
spection bill, the restrictions could
not have been removed. Hatch is
one of the men the sub-treasuryites
want to retire.

Oapitalists are Coming.

The New York Sun says there will
probably beimore northern tourists in
the South during the coming winter
season than there have been in any
past winter. This is the general i'm
preston. Should the good times
come that are predicted by Jay
Gould and others, and general re.
vival in business, the South will be
be flooded with capitalists looking
for investments, and it is now time
that GAINESVILLE was setting her
house in order to receive company,
and not wait for their coming, but
send out the invitations broadcast
soliciting them to come this way.
In other words, GAINESVILLE should
now put her best foot foremost in adj
vertising, letting the world know
what we have here and what it is
worth. The LEAF-CHRoNICLE's
trade edition is the thing for this.

Some of those Democrats who are
trying to shelve the silver issue in
Ohio instead of meeting it squarely,
probably are more anxious to keep a
silver plank out of the next Demo
cratic platform than they are to re-
elect Governor Campbell. - Age
Herald.
That is just about the size of it..
Mckinley is weaker on the silver
question than on the tariff issue, and
1t Is very easy to route him on that
line If the speakers and press were
looking more after Campbell's cleo
tion than Cleveland's nomination.

suaded to try DIR. Kings New Dis

A Marrow Escape.

Saturday evening Ed. Humphreys
secured a canoe at Joe JohnsOn's mill
and padded it up the river above the
railroad bridge and was allowing it
to float slowly down the stream,
while he was fishing from the craft
for channel cat. He was attacked
with a convulsion and fell back in
the canoe apparently lifeless. The
craft drifted against one of the bridge
pillars, where it came near being
forced under the water before by.
ISLANDERS could reach him. Mr.
Humphreys was taken to the shore
in safety, where he soon revived. 1t
was a close call, as five minutes de-
lay would have allowed sufficient
water to have run in the canoe to
have sunk it.
