1T is an open secret that the. main
motive of the Populites in the Ten
nessee campaign this year is the
defeat Of the Democratic party for
refusing to endorse BUCHANAN and
his weak administration, and the
naming of a ticket in this county
to" try their strength" is strictly in
accordance with the plans mapped
out by the leaders, and has been
adopted simply as the most pur-
suasive means of inducing innocent
Democrats who favored BUCHANAN
to aid them in weakening the Dem
ocratic ticket. Whether any great
number of these Democrats (who
| are honest and well-meaning) will
seriously consider the policy which
has been inaugurated by MCDow-
ELL and his henchmen is not now
apparent, bat certain it is some of
them are treading on dangerous
ground, and we warn them now to
pause before endorsing any move
ment which lends aid and comfort
to the Republican party, and care
fnlly consider the dangerous re-
suits which may follow the success
full carrying out of such a narrow.
contemptuous policy. These are
facts for you to ponder over, and
we hope when the time comes for
endorsing the principles that we
have been contending for during
the past thirty years that no Dem
ocrat in this county will be weigh
ed in the balance and found want
ing in his devotion to principle; and
furthermore we confidently believe
that no true Democrat will refuse
to be guided for the best interests
of the party which has always es-
poused the interests in common OF
all the people.

LAST fall when the Democrats
administered such a terrible drub-
bing to the Populists in Virginia,
it was predicted that the party had
received its death wound. This
prophesy is being fast fulfilled. a
recent Richmond dispatch says that
at a State party meeting in that city
Chairman PIERsON and Secretary
HARRIS both resigned their posi-
tions, giving as excuses for resign
ing that the work interfered with
their business engagements. And
the most significant feature of the
meeting was that it was difficult
matter to induce any one to accept
PIERsoN's job, and they completely
failed when it come to naming {
successor to HARRIS. Straws show
the current of the wind, which il
about all there is in the party, anC
that is now well-nigh exhausted.

SEVERAL changes have occurred
in the newpaper world Of Carroll

HUGH PETTUs has sold the Hollow

MOULTON, of the Huntingdon Re-
publican, and that paper willappear
next week under the management
of Mr.. j. G. FITZGERALD, who has
sold his interest in the Huntingdon
Owl to ALEX. BIyENs. Mr.. JOHN

Traveller having suddenly departed
for parts unknown, Mr.. PETTUs
came over here Tuesday and made
arrangements for the removal of
that plant to Paris, where he will
begin the publication of paper.
Thus, Hollow Rock is left with one
paper, which, we presume, will be
Republican in politics.

They Caucus Together and Name Ticket
to "Try Their Strength"
AS had been announced those
high in the councils Of the Popu-
list camp met here last Saturday to
nominate a ticket and renew their
VOWS of fealty to we know not what.
The attendance was not large and
the enthusiasm, we are informed,
was even more scanty than the
crowd.
Here is the ticket: For trustee,
Tom Warmack; circuit court clerk,
r. P. Haley; county court clerk,
J. Monroe CASTLE; sheriff, Joe A.
Cowell; register, Horace Pafford.
There are some shrewd politi-
clans in the party, and the fact that
they do not permit the business or
meetings of the organization to in
terfere in their most trivial matters
is evidence conclusive that the fu-
ture of the Pops seems very dark
and dreary indeed to them, and We
assume that the sooner some of the
so-called brethren, who are being
deluded by the leaders of the Mrs

So much has been heard Of Mary
Wollstonecraft as herald Of woman's
equality that most people have forgotten
the name Of Mary Astell, contempo-
rary of Defoe's, who lived a hundred
years before Mary Wollstonecraft, and
who was the first woman who pleaded
for "woman's equality Of education and
social position" If it were a daring
thing to do in the eighteenth century, it
was surely much more daring thing to
do in the seventeenth, and, though Mary
Astell may be said to have "hedged" a
little under the wrath of her contem-
poraries, yet to her is the credit of hav-
ing been the first to urge the necessity
Of giving woman the benefits of thor
Ough education. Other pioneers there
have been at later date who have suf-
fered slander and persecution in the
woman's cause, and whose work has
been ignored and set aside by the more
noisy crowd who now enjoy the benefits
which the pioneers suffelings purchased.

Flowers and Singing,

Concerning a paragraph published on
the alleged weakening influences of flow
ers, especially violets, upon the voices of
singers, a correspondent writes that an
evidence in favor Of the assertion was
had at matinee in New York of the
opera season. a very large and beauti-
ful bunch Of violets was handed to Nor
dica, who, with scant ceremony, thrust
them instantly away from her, holding
them behind her as she backed off the
stage and reappearing to bow again with
out them. The incident was sufficiently
marked to attract the notice of at least
one person and aJtests the assertion that
singers have reason to dread the effect of
she perfume of violets while singing a

Of the treasury TO maintain the two
metals at parity and all our money
today is Of equal value, of full debt pay
ing value. Silver is as good as gold
today. All our gold, silver and paper
Is Of equal debt-paying value. The
writer has in the past two years paid
nearly a thousand dollars on note
payable in gold coin and nearly every
dollar was paid in silver. Those who
say silver is demoDetized or that any
Of our present money will not pay
debts simply lie. We need more
money in our country, but
we do not want any deprecated
money. Our country should do as
England does in one respect. Govern
meHt employees, army and navy, labor
ers and pensioners should be paid off
every week in silver, instead Of every
three months in bank drafts. That
would put silver In circulation instead
Of keeping S4O0, 900 piled up in the
vaults at Washington. The proposition
to stamp 40 cents worth Of silver bull
lion as one dollar without by law
maintaining it at parity with all
other money Of cur country, is the free
coinage idea, and would place our
country on q silver basis. 1t would
drive all gold out Of circulation as well
az all good money. 1t would Mex
icaniZe our finance. 1t would cause q
con TRACTION Of currency such as our
country has never seen. Financial re-
form must come in other ways than
by disturbance Of values. The gold
basis Is bad enough but it is infinitely
preferable to any uncertainty. We
need TO use both gold, silver and paper
We need more of it in circulation. But
how shall any Of it circulate unless
there is demand for labor and demand
for products. Money is only the
medium of exchanges. When no ex-
changes take place no money changes
hands. If there was twice the money
in the country, but factories closed and
laborers idle, who could get any of that
money? Does anyone doubt if there
was demand for wheat, wool or labor
that there would not be money to buy

FREE COINAGE AND BIMETALllSM

We must have either international
bimetallism, or American bimetalism.
We do not want Mexican blmetallism.
international bImetallism could be SO.
cured by an agreement of the great
n Itions to Use silver AS money on par
with gold to be maintained at an agreed
ratio, or to use II as money on its own
intrinsic value. American bimetalism
as we understand 1t il the largest use
Of silver possible upon parity with
gold. Mexican bimetallism Is not
genuine bimetallism at all 1t is the
forced circulation of deprecated silver
The legal right to take either gold or
silver to the mint and have 1t freely
c)ined at n fixed ratio exists and has
often existed, where genuine bimetall-
ism did not exist.
You can take gold and silver to the
mlnts of Mexico today and have them
freely coined ut a fixed ratio, but no one
will claim that real bimetallism exists
In Mexico, or that he favors such
"bimetallismn rs exists In Mexico.
The governor Of Oregon could freely
take both the precious metals To the
mint In Mexico and have them there
stamped, say AZ 500 of gold and 500
OF silver. But the moment he had
received the coins he would not ex-
change the 500 OF coined gold for 500
OF coined silver, and he could not ex-
change the 500 Of coined silver for 500
of coined gold. No one would give
him 500 of coined gold In exchange
for 500 of coined silver. As matter
OF fact he would part with 100 silver
dollars for not far from 90 gold dollars,
and anybody would give no more
than about so gold dollars for 100
OF his silver dollars. In other words,
his gold and silver metal would be
worth, after It had been run through
the mint and stamped by the Mexican
government, just about what It was
worth before,
Yet the gold and silver coins would
be equally legal-tender, aud there is In
