AND THE FORGE
 BILL.

There is no ground whatever for the charges that Mir. Cleveland re- mained silent while the Force bill was under discussion by Congress. In the course of speech, remarka- ble for it's clear statement of Demo cratic doctrine, delivered to the Young Mems Democratic Club of Philadelphia, Jackson's Day, Mir. Cleveland used these words:
 When we see our political adver- saries bent on the passage of feder- al law, with the scarcely denied pur- pose of perpetuating partisan su- premacy, which invades the States with election machinery designed to promote federal interference with the rights of the people in localities concerned, discrediting their honesty and fairness and justly arousing their jealousy of centralized power, we will stubbornly resist such a danger ous and revolutionary scheme in obc- dience to our pledge for the support of the State governments in all their rights"
 And subsequently, the Senate of the United StatesStdid stubbornly re- sist." Mir. Cleveland could not have declared more forcibly or plainly his opposition to the infamous measure and he made this speech at a time when it rang through the country and was of good cheer to Southern hearts. It is strange that Demo- crats anywhere in the South could have forgotten them. Mir. Cleve- land, whether in or out of power, has by no act or word of his forfeit ed the confidence or affections of the Southern people. Men may diff fer from him on the subject of free coinage of silver but Southern Dem ocrats cannot afford to ignore or forget the steadfastness with which he resisted all schemes to continual ly harass the South and the courage with winch, during his administra tion, he challenged Northern Repub lican sentiment and called into pub- lie service many distinguished Dem ocrats of the South. The Democrat ic farmers of the South cannot surely listen with any degree of patience to the third party emmissaries, who are going up and down the land abus- ing MT. Cleveland and making it ap- pear that he was the farmers dear est foe. No matter what may be the opinion of the Southern farmers as to the propriety of re-nominating MT. Cleveland, his course relative to the Southern people during his ad- ministration and his prompt expres- sion on the Force bill-to say noth ing of the wisdom, fearlessness and honestly as Democratic leader entitlc him to exemption from de- nunciation in the South, The peri patetc demagogues from Kansas who arc going through the Southern country proclaiming against Mir. Cleveland in abusive terms should receive no comfort from Southern audiences. - Appeal-Avalanche.

Teeth and Taxes.

Under the Mckinley bill it is un- patriotic for Americans to chew with foreign teeth. All such teeth are heavily taxed to keep them out of the country, and the result is that the Massachusetts tooth makers have everything their own way. There are many ''soft snaps" un- der the Mckinley bill, but there is hardly room for doubt that the Massachusetts tooth manufacturers have the softest--not even accept ing the Vermont maple sugars boil CTS. If the Republics advice on the question of the most royal road to wealth were asked it would take down the latest report of the Massa- chusetts Bureau of statistics, point to page 275, and reply; Young man, if you would be wealthy in the shortest possible time, either break into bank vault or go to Massachu. setts and make artificial teeth under the Mckinley bill"
 From the returns made by l20 es tablishments engaged in making ar tihcial teeth the Massachusetts bu. reau of statistics has compiled this most astonishing table of averages of cost in lot of artificial teeth sell 1 inp for SlOO.

STORY OF A RING.

III 'VNiiiS ONcl COlItCtlOn or Iln- gcr-rings in the possession of friend who has a great fondness for such ornaments came across T most un- lque character.
 1t was heavy band of gold, set With q cameo cut to represent d snake that lay coiled with head erect. It's eyes of emerald seemed to snap at a tiny bird, also cut in stone.
 There is a singular incident con- nected with that ring, which" my friend remarked, as l picked it up and carefully examined it, "pcrhaps you would like to hear.
 Il should, Twas my reply; and he narrated a story which I will tell as nearly as 1 can in his own words.
 "Ihree years ago l went to pass a few days in Clifton as you may know, a noted summer residence, but a better resting place than most resorts.
 Il had been there only few hours when 1 saw on the hand of lady who lodged at the same hotel ring which greatly excited my curiosity for reasons that will appear later in my story.
 Il easily secured an introduction to her, and in the course of our first conversation referred to this ring, no l,nger on her hand, as having attract ed my special attention.
 It is very curious, she said.
 "Docs it belong to you?' 1 inquir- ed.
 Ut does not, but was lent me by a friend.
 May inquire the name of the owner|
 She requested me not to men ton her in connection with the ring :; so you will excuse me from telling you her name,

 I will learn whether she is will ling to sell it, and let you know soon.
 ''Before my arrival in Clifton there had been many cases of pocket-pick- ing and petty theft in tho place, and on the fifth night after came the village hank was hurglarizod,
 "Though the minor offcnses had caused no particular excitement, the burglary did, for the temporary as we'll as the permanent residents ot Clifton would lose considerable sums if the stolen funds were not recoy- cred.

AN.w Decision About Coupons.

On the first day of last December r. p.
Barry. of Faunuier. rendered the coupons of a
th0usand-dO.ar bond in part payment OF ms
taxes. When the matter came up IN court the
lolnt made by the State was that the BOND
from which the coupons had been cut had
not been proved t. be genuine. The plalntih
testified that the coupons were cut from the
bond IN the presence of the county treasurer
and that he had for several years proved
coupons from this same bond and had col
lected the money for the same from the state
Treasurer
The bond was also produced, and two
prominent citizens testified 10 the genuine
ness Of the signature of the Auditor written
on the bond but could not prove the genuine
ness Of the signature of the Treasurer, the late
Hon. n. VI. I. Hunter
The jury brought in verdict for the State.
judo Keith allowed this verdict 10 stand and
also notified the plaintiff that in consequence
OF II tho coupons would not be returned to
him Mr.. Barry then wrote 10 the Second
Auditor to fund his bond under the Riddle
berger bill. This the Second Auditor declined
TO do for a reason expressed in the following
extract from letter to Mr.. Barry, dated 0cto-
Der IA. 1891;
Tho Attorney General tells me that you
failed TO prove IN court that your bond was
genuine; that when that question was pre-
sented 10 the jury they found verdict for the
State and against ITS genuineness, and that
Your coupons were withheld by Judge Keith
bee ause they had been cut from u tainted
bond
Now there is no more reason for my funding
tainted bond than for the courts receiving
coupons cut from IT, therefore notify you
that will not fund the bond untllits genuine
ness is certified to me by the court that re-
jscted it,
