A WORD TO THE PoPULIsrs.

They VIII Waste The.r Vote IL TheT Cast
Them for Other Than the Democratic
Ticket-The Democra PlecGed TO Bet
ter Popular Conditions.
The following very timely and point
ed argument is from the Farmers id
UOCGts, printed in Charles Town, and
esta blished a few years ago with the
spls'Surpose in view Of furtherlng the
interests of the Farmers Alliance and
furthering the condition Of the agricul-
tursl element OF the State:
"A word TO our Populist friends.
What can YOU hope TO gain In this Con-
gressional district by voting for can
didate for Congress? There is no pos
sible hope for his election. If the fight
was 10 any degree triang then
there would be some wisdom In IT, but
as IL is, do the most SsDguine OF you
dream that your candidate will do
other than assist the election OF party
candidate, whom every line and precept
OF your principles urges you TO antagon-
ize? You know that the Alliance was
baptized, in its swaddling clothes, as
the uncompromising enemy and opposer
o. Republicanism and Republican legis-
lation. You know that every i'll you
are now complaining of is traceaole to
Republican legislation. You know
that link after link Of the chain OF In
dustrial slavery has been forged, year
after year, by Republican law makers,
aud can you now indirectly help TO fur
Their rivet those letters by throwing
your vote in such way that it will
help your worst enemies into power?
Do you suppose it is patriotism which
is causing the Republicans OF this Dis
trict, this State and this nation, TO
strain every nerve TO regain the power
they lost? Do you think that IL is 9th
er than desire TO regain the
offices they have lost, so that
they may have renewed OPP
portunitles TO indulge Unsuitable greed
for spois, aud further rob you by IN
Just taxation? You want free coinage
of silver. Was it not the Republican
party which degraded silver in 1873,
aud has ever since stood as barrier TO
its restoration? The majority of the
Democratic representatives in Congress
and in the Senate voted against the I'M
conditional repeal Of the Sherman law.
Ninety per centum of the Democratic
masses are today in favor of the restO-
ration of silver at a ratio of l6 10 l,
and through the Democratic party this
restoration will come as sure as the
sun shines. You can hope for nothing
in this direction from the Republicans
You can confidently look for every
thing from the Democratic party. The
masses are all right, turn out the lead
ers. You can't even afford to turn out
the leaders, who are with 20 in every
other particular, and put in the Repub.
icans who are opposed to you in every
thing. The situation invokes your most
careful aud thoughtful consideration.
II you think, you will act wisely.

When ewes bring 10 cents a head and
lambs u cents over in Carroll county, Ohio,
the REGIsrRR can easily estimate the mar
ket price of a secured pound Of Carroll
county Intelligence.
E3This is the most utterly absurd and
and idiotic trash the Calamity Ho,rler
has yet been guilty OF, and that is say
ing a great deal
Our neighbor appears TO be in dead
earnest, however, since it publishes a
Steubsnville special telling Of the
sale Of some sheep and lambs At these
prices, which il heads Effect Of Free
Wooll"
The Intelligence itself is to blame.
however, for thus making 70 airing ass
Of Itself, for # could have avoided so
doing by simply turning TO its own
local market quotations, which read:
Sheep-Extra 2l{a9slc; good, .1s{a2c;
common, 1al1Sc; lambs, 2a3+c.
This means from s.. 100 TO 81. 90 a head
for she3p, and a still higher price per
pound gor lambs. Had the Intc,ligpcr
looked at these market quotations and
not been so anxious 20 let loose its
calamity howl TO the detriment Of the
farmers market, it might have smelt a
mouse and saved itself from falling into
this ridiculous hole.
Now and then a farmer will have
some starved and worn out sheep that
are worthless for any purpose, except
their hides. These the farmer is glad
to get rid Of at any price or to give
away IL be can't sell them The nomi-
ma prices such poor animals bring
has no more bearing on the market
yrice Of sheep than the occasional sale
7 OF an old, spawned, wind-gaIled, worn
out horse has on the horse market.

1t is we'll that General Gordon CUES on
making his fine conciliatory and recon-
Cling speech through the North, while
Mckinley, Reed aud others 60 about on
the political stump making their old
sectional war talk. It's a fine contrast,
and one in which the Southern people
may take great pride and consolation.
An old, grizzly Confederate General Is
seeking to heal the wounds that were
made in the past and TO pour oil on the
troubled waters, while the other fellows
are trying TO keep the wounds irritated
and TO lash the waves into fury.

The following Interview with the rep
resentaNvs Of a London house that
makes Nrments for city swelIs in Amer
lea who affect foreign styles and fabrics
is reproduced from the Washington
Post he says:
The new tariff law will not make much
difference ia the price of mems wearing
apparel, the tendency being 20 somewhat
cheaper the COST. A 500 suit after the lst Of
January next can be furnished for about
$50, or perhaps a little less. What viii make
a great difference In the course of few
years is the adoption of free wool. The
abolition OF duty on wool is the greatest
thing ever done for the American public.
I am sorry, as an Englishman, aud looking
al 10 purely from q selfish point OF view, 90
see your Congress put wool on the free list.
To means a larger consumption Of the raw
material. more wooden factories, better
prices for the sheep raiser, enlarged de-
mand for labor, and finally 10 will, inside
of ten years, completely drive European
fabrics from this country You Will make

They Couldn't Eat In Public.

A tender blade, with blush on his cheek
and down on his lip, drove up to II Lewis.
ton hotel on Tuesday and hitched his horse.
Then he helped out pretty lass in a hat
with white feathers, and with n blush on
her cheek that defied the setting sun to
match. Ken hitch my boss while we eat
dinner!" said he. The clerk said they
could, or he would send it around to tho
stable. He signed his name and then
scratched something out, and when it final.
ly was complete the better half of it read,
land wife"
In the dining room they attracted uni
versal attention. The head waiter not
catching sight of them Immediately he be-
gan to edge to the door, but she pulled his
sleeve. Their attack on the bill of fare
was unique She was dainty and didn't
want anything but lemon pie He pre-.
ferred soup, but didn't care for anything
else. He was bashful and stammered
when he asked for anything, and in getting
away from the table he was awkward and
knocked over glass of water on the table.
In the office he simply said: Darn it! They
all knew we were jest married. Where is
there an all fired good s'loon where we kin
get square meal an nobody LOOKING"
They got the right direction, and the res
taurant man says that the young bride ate
a sirloin and a slab of custard pie, and tho
groom got away with two oyster stews and
an eight inch segment of unadulterated
