The Russellville Democrat., 1893-10-05

THERE should be more considera- tion on the part of those democratic newspapers engaged in condemning the Senate and calling for a cloture rule simply because of the prolonged discussion of the silver bill. These newspapers were not in favor of a cloture rule when the force bill was up for discussion. They did not think discussion out of place at that time. They thought it all right when the prolonged discussion succeeded in shelving the bill. The truth is that a majority of the democratic senators desire the discussion con tinued until a compromise can be made that will carry with the repeal of the sherman law such legislation as is just and equitable to the con tinued coinage of silver and proyld- ing that such silver coin shall be a legal tender in the business transact ions of the country. The demand is for a double standard, gold and sil- yer at a parity, and no confidence game that might possibly result in eliminating silver from the coinage of the country
The Russellville Democrat., 1893-10-05

splendid grain and fruit display. Her building is the finest State building on the ground. A repro duction of an Illinois scene adorns the building with genuine cliffs, trees, cavern and waterfall, and even the little pool and bridge at the foot, with hundreds of live fish of all sizes, giving an air of romance to the surroundings. The statue of the silver Queen ? in the Colorado building is an object of attraction. This reminds us that if some of the white metal in some of these differ
 ent pieces of statuary, together with the models made of souvenir coins could be torn down and coined into good honest Decent dollars, it might possibly cut figure in the settle
 ment of the vexed question just now. The old Liberty Bell hangs in state in the Pennsylvania building. Com ing into it's sacred presence one naturally doffs his hat to do hom- age to the "grizzled veteran of American Independence. Numerous relics are contained in the building. When we come to the New York building we feel like reconsidering our assertion that Illinois had the finest building. Here is a magnif- cent structure. A lovely fountain plays on the eastern piazza. The grand entrance is mass of splendid statuary costly carved works, flow CTS and cut glass. A Steinway pi- ano fpure gold stands in the main parlor, on which hired man yir
 tuoso (not of the next door girl'' yariety) thumps occasionally. The whole interior of the building is gorgeous indeed. Virginia makes an interesting and instructive ex
 hibit in her Mt. Vernon, the Home of Washington It is a faithful reproduction of the honored old edi- fee, and contains the furniture of Washington's family, besides many other relics connected with the life of the illustrious Father of his Country We love to finger within it's classic walls, amid the historic surroundings, and dream of the ex- citing period attending the birth of American Independence. Florida's s reproduction of old Ft Marion at St Augustine, while possessing an uninyiting appearance with it's old guns frowning over the parapets, contains an attractive and unique exhibit, consisting mainly of native tropical fruits, grasses and sea shells, corals and other curios. It is mat ter of regret that the interior is sim ply a souvenir and trinket bazar, as almost everything is for sale. This is the result of the exhibit being made by private individuals, as no appropriation was made by the State. T. k. L.
