tariff can be accounted for as ar
indirect way of forcing the people

Mr.. Ogden admits the money
conspiracy and that millionaires
were made just after the war and
by infamous Legislation, but
charges it up to the Republican
party. The infamous legislation
referred to was passed in 1865 and
amended in 1866, the vote on that
infamous Legislation was as follows:
For, So Republicans and 2S Demo-
Gratis. Against, 53 Republicans and
1 Democrat. Now it can plainly
be seen who is responsible for the
passage of that act to substitute
bonds for greenbacks.
Mr.. Ogden from a Democratic
standpoint endorsed the Foster ad-
ministration, and urged the two
factions of the Democratic party
in the State to harmonize. He
failed, however, to say anything
about the Cleveland administra-
ton, therefore we may conclude
that by his silence he endorses it.
Now we want it distinctly under

gument to the disparity of Mr..

The children said that their mothe,
was sick and their father could no,
leave her, so he had sent them tt
bury the dead child. The sexton
told them that be could not ALLOW,
the body to be buried without /;
permit, so they returned home,
coming back the next day with til,
necessary paper, and the body was
consigned to the pOtter's field. Th
father was found to be a labOreI

Normal school.

In quest of something to inter.
est our readers, OH Wednesday
morning we wended our way to the
Normal school, where we were cor.
daily received by Prof. T. ID.
Boyd, the genial president of the
school, who kindly conducted us
through the various departments,
where we were introduced to the
several teachers. We fingered
awhile watching each teach
er in his easy, and at the same
time fOrcible and effective manner
of instruction, which so far as we
could judge. was perfect in all of
the details.
This now famous school, opened
on Monday the 1st inst, with 275
pupils, and the number is increas-
ing by daily arrivals. 1t now has
a large increase over the attend
ance of last year, and promises to
be by far the most prosperous ses-
sion of the school since it's estab-
liShment. Notwithstanding the
third grade model school is a pay
department, it is now crowded to
its fullest capacity-this certainly
speaks well for the able manage
ment of this great State institu-
tiOn.
The faculty consists of Prof. 7.
d. Boyd, president; Prof. A. L.
Smith, training teacher; Prof. r.
L. Hines, mathematics; Prof. E.
L. Stephens, latin ; Prof. b. g.
Caldwell, science; Miss Angus
Morris, history and literature Mrs.
NJ. f. johnson, drawing; Miss Lu-
cy Bates, music; Mrs. L. G. Nc
Voy, language and literature Mrs.
Emma Oswald, third grade; Miss
Bessie Russell, second grade; Miss
L. j. Lawless, first grade; Mr.. j.
E. Reedheimer, ungraded model
school.
In conclusion we can only speak
in the highest praise of the teach
ers, and we cheerfully recommend
this great institution of learning
to those who realize the great i'm
portance of educating their chill
dren.

What Congress Has Done.

Ine fOpullStS love to declare that the
Democrats did nothing during the re
cent session of Congress. Something
was done, however, but we have no
seen statement of what it was so con
cisely made as the following by Congress
man Hall. of Minnesota. 1t Is in a nut.
shell but speaks volumes
1t has made all money equally taxa.
BILE.
1t has restored confidence in our cur.
rency and finances
1t has given to all our people the op.
portunity of living cheaper and better.
1t has shattered the protected trusts OF
McKinleyism.
1t has placed the burden of taxation
upon the rich mans surplus as well as
upon every mans needs
1t has restored the freedom of elec-
tiOns.
1t has placed the transaction of the
government and its methods of account
ing upon business basis.
1t has greatly reduced expenditures of
the government
For one solid year it has maintained
an unrelenting fight against the trust
and mOnopOlies which protection has
created.
1t has fought the good fight, it has
finished the course, ithas kept the faith.
I-Richland Beacon News.
Brother Machen, is this trueg Have
the Democrats done all this ? If not,
show up the error, il SO, what reason
have you for not returning to your old
home Progress.
Now Bro. Hicks we are not pre-
pared to say that the above does
not strike us with some degree of
surprise, coming as it does from a
man that has a twO-fold advantage
over us from the facts first, that he
has been running a reform paper
for two years or more, and
second, that he has remained inside
the ''party" and therefore ought to
be in possession of all the inside
facts, and it seems to us could have
answered them better than we can,
but, however, we will do the best
we can with the lights before us,
and in doing so we will take them
seriatim.
1st. ''It has made all money
equally taxable" This requires
but very little attention for it is
false and misleading; it is false as,
there is no taxation on the million
aires bonds nor the interest on the
bonds, neither is there any taxes
on the bank note issued by the
National banks. Those bank notes
constitute the principal money of
the country, therefore it is mislead-
ing in trying to make the people
believe, that the Democrats favor
equal taxation.
End. ''It has restored confidence
in our currency and finances.
Now this proposition is too absurd
and ridiculous to require any SER
ious consideration. The masses of
the people of this country has al
ways had unlimited confidence in
all money of the United States,
and the cry of slack of confidence"
only came from the distorted brain
of Cleveland and his associates in
the crime of demonetizing silver.
