"Plenty of DemagOgues and
CrankS."

Under the above heading the AL
exandria Town Talk essays a criti-
cism of the Baton Rouge Advocates
position, that the absurd sub-treas-
ury scheme of two years ago has
now its counterpart in the 'free sill
yer" craze. Friend Mack, after re-
citing that this Congressional dis
trict "went for" silver in the late
Democratic primary by vote of
1910 to 226, and that many able
and prominent men have also been
guilty of using the same demagogic
slogan, says of the "silver cranks, !"
"they iciH succeed" Yes, Mack;
they will succeed in establishing
bi-metalism on exactly the lines as
mapped out for "sound currency"
by the Cleveland Administration,
and then the whole mob who are
now opposing will join in and cry
exultingly, Eve did it with our lit
tie hatchet!' Verify, there are of
cranks and demagogues plenty,
else Coxey could never have led
his crowd of tramps to the Capt.
tol, nor would there be found any
to abuse a Democratic. President
for standing squarely on the party
platform he was elected upon!

Tired of Populism.
Editor Coffar Chronicle


Here We are, Bro Goodwin, slightly
distigured, but still in the ring, and wise
with experience. That was cute Demo
cratic trick to put Hicks out on the Pop
ulites and side track them, because Hicks
was Democrat all the way through, if !
am any Judge. The Pops are in mourn
ing, and want you to publish my letter
of coincidence to them, viz:
To Bros Machen and Fortson. and all my Dear
Nephews and Brother Populists-
1 have not herd from yew sense the
last lection, and have moved from the
place where now live or should have
rit to yu before. did not kno where a
letter mite find w fust, but now take
my pen in hand to drop yu few lines to
inform yu of the deth of yur own dear
livin unkle, @. d. Hicks, who died very
suddenly after lingering illness of 16 or
70 days. Pore mani he suffered great
deal. He lay for long time in political
commissions, perfectly speechless, all the
time talking incoherently and inquiring
for Congress water. am very much at
loss to tell yu what he died of, but the
Democrats think it was occasioned by
his race for Congress, for he was not we'll
days at time during his race for the
position. His political age yu kno jest
as we'll as l can tell yu. He was eight
months old lacking seven months. If he
had lived till this time he would hav bin
dead eight days. Take notis, / send yu
my hart-felt coincidence in your sad be-
reavement, which the family sends also
unbeknown to me. They would like to
send you the brindle COW if it were not
fur her hoarseness and lost voice.
l beg OF yu not to read this until two
or three days otter yu receive it, in which
time VA will De better prepared for the
sorrowful news. Hopin that yur nerves

Our friend G. ID. Hicks, of the
Shreveport Progress, acknowledges
his defeat, and says: "All hail to
the gallant Harry, Boosters manly
son, and the grand old Democratic
party. Long may she wave in this
good country of ours" We could
almost forgive him for making his
foolish run, after reading his as
sertion that he is a Democrat, and
only ran as a rebuke to the Con-
gressional committee. Come, now,
friend; don't you know some bet
ter way of showing party feaIty
than that of kicking out of the
traces, and afterward going around
saying, Il am Democlat?"
