The Ground OF Hope.

On what ground is our hope for the
Lords salvation built? on HIS faithful
ness, not on our sincerity; on His promis-
ableness, not on our constancy. 1t is
built not on the work OF grace In us,
but on the work of Christ for US; work
which has satisfied every claim. provided
every security, and pledged all the divine
projections on our behalf; a work SC
finished and complete. that all the din
culties OF salvation on The part of Goo
are removed; and the sinner, finding n
hindrance in the way hut himself

long tho hard times and increase the

The ''silver-prOducing countries, -
besides our own, are Mexico, Peru,
Chill and BOlivia-all controlled by
non-prOgressive and non-commer-
cial population, and every one abso-
Iutely subject to Europe in the mat
ter of exchange. And yet our con-
temporary thinks that with their
puny support the United States
could defy the power of the country
which dominates all the exchanges
of the world!
Surely it is time for newspapers
which claim to be under intelligent
direction to quit this foolishness in
discussing this subjuct. Facts are
facts, and no amount of lingo dema-
gOgy can change them, and the
most unpleasant fact of all is that
England must be consulted in the
establishment of any medium of ex-
change that is to be accepted by the
world.

people Of the South have continued
to hold that doctrine in odium, and
In doing SO have escaped the social
ills that come of socialistic views of
Government and its functions. The
old fashioned notion that every tub

saved the South. It nerved its arm

IT is said that the denomination
of silver has caused a decrease in
the price of cotton; but cotton is a
gold producing product, besides the
controlling cotton market Of the
world is Liverpool. How could
the denomination of silver in the
United States affect the price of cot
ton in England? England is on gold
basis, and the Liverpool quotat lons
mean that cotton is worth the
price quoted in gold and not in sill
yer. Again if the demonitization
of silver has caused cotton in its
manufactured state TO decrease in
value, why has there not been a pro-
PotiOnate decrease In the price of
cotton goods? Echo answers why.
Class legislation is the paramount
cause of the financial depression ex-
Perieneed by the Southern farmers
and not the decentralization of silver.
