Some of our readers may have forgot
ten what the Democratic platform Of
1892 called for. We give it below rs a
reminder OF the pledges on which the
election OF last fall was carried:
We denouncc Republican protection as
a fraud a robbery of the great majority
of the American people for the benefit OF
the few.
We declare it to be fundamental prin-
ciple of the Democratic party that The
federal government has no CONSTITUTE 1nal
power to impose and collect tariff duties
except for the purpose OF revenue only,
and we demand that the collection Of
such taxes shall be limited to the ncccs-
sites of the government when honestly
and economically administered.
We denouncc the Mckinley tariff law
enacted by the Filty-hrSt Congress as
the eliminating atrocity OF class lcgsla-
ton.
We dcnouncc the sham reciprocity
which jugglcs with the peoples desire for
enlarged foreign markets and treer ca
changes by pretending to establish closer
trade relations Tor a country whose arti-
ces of export are almost exclusively
agricultural products with other cour-
tries that are also agricultural.
We dcnouncc the Republican lcgisla-
ton known as the Sherman act of 1890.
We hold to the use of both gold and sill.
yer as the standard money ofthc country
and to the coinage of both gold and sill.
yer without discrimination against either
metal or charge of mintage.
We recommend that the prohibitory
1Op.c c. tax on state bank issues be re
pealed.

Financial pancs in general, ard the
one through which we are now passing
in particular, are to a great extent psy-
Geological in their naturc-that is, they
exist in the minds of men. For instance
Il savings bank may be perfectly solvent
and have i'll good investments tH.cc as
much money as il owes; but start a fer.
mcnt in the brains Of its depositors and
let them all come Clamoring at once Tor
their money in cash and it is impossible
to meet the demand. The bank suspcnds
not from loss of assets but from loss OF
confidence. The business of the world
today rests upon the confidence rather
than currency, and the real financial care
rs mind cure rather than gold cure.

What's all tbs debate in Congress
about? Whose vote is 2oin% to be
changed by it How many men have
listened to it? What doth it profit tn,
country to read Of Mr., Blanks fiery
eloqucnce, etcctera, and nluscam, when
empty benches have greeted him i'll the
House or Senate, while he WAS talking.
The great sham of the hour is debate.
Here the country is waiting for action,
but members must debate; must talk
while there isn't colleague wdo gives a
continental whether the speaker thinks
our coinage ought to be of ox-hldcs OF
platinum. Yet there must be debate, OF
else the globe wouldn't whlrl. The
country wants less debate and more Of
action just now.

The following verses sum up very nicely
what the present feelings Of many Clcvc
land voters must be:
When Factory Whistles Sound.
What rejoicing there would lie If the days we
could recall
When everything was booming, with work
enough for all,
When the smoke from factory Oh imncys told n
tale Of prosperous times,
And payday never passed without the usual
share of dimes.
But that is all a memory, u thought Of days
gone by;
Not satisfied with good enough, we needed
tempter's cry,
And voted for reform as Grover laid it down,
And it isn't like it was

crowd gathered around the jail and kept
increasing as night approached. At ) o'clock
the Roanoke Light Infantry marched TO the
jail by orders of Mayor Trout. Guards were
posted and the streets in the vicinity cleared
About dark the crowd increased by hundred
men from the vicinity OF the woman's home,
headed by Mrs. Bishops son, fireman on
the Norfolk & Western railroad.
At s O'Clock portions of the mob battered
a; a side door of the jail where the militia
and Mayor Trout had retired. The shooting
was commenced by the mob and the mayor
was shot in the foot. The militia were then
ordered to return the fire ard yolley from
rifles was poured into the mob.
Eleven men were killed by this fire and az
many more wounded, some of them fatally.
During the excitement caused by the volley
the negro was taken from the jail by an Off
Ger and secreted. The dead and wounded
were removed to drug store and the Offices
of nearby physicians. The militia then dis

court assured the mob that the negro Smith

prove the truth of his statement. Ills state
ment and the speech of ]. Allen Watts, Dem
ocratic candidate for the state senate, did
much to pacify the crowd, but they hung
around the jail and adjacent streets for sew
eral hours afterward, many searching for the
secreted prisoner.
At midnight the scene had quleted down
and no further trouble is expected. The
militia remain under the mayors orders, al
though 1t is probable that they will not be
called out again. Mayor Trout is firm in the
position he has assumed and declares that he
will uphold the law. The dead, which al
midnight had increased by the death OF
George Settle, were removed to the under

returns.
Placer dggings have been discovered on

ominC The discovery was made by accl-
dent nd IS creating much excitement in that
section. The lind is on the Shoshone reser-
walton but Is supposed TO extend over the
line.
The Jumbo mines, below Breckenridge are
milling daily ore that averages from IS to SO
per ton, which values are caught on the
plates. The l0-stamp mill is making the
company $3.50 per day. The placers owned
by the company are proving of Immense value
TO them.
