A funny idea of the Sun is that the
probate judge should distribute the
patronage of the office throughout the
county. We presume the SUI refers
to the appointment of administrators,
and would like to see the deaths Oc-

Democratic Record.

During all these years that the re.
publicaOS voted against silver, a ma
jority Of the Democrats voted for the
white metal until the final test came
at the special session, August % 1893,
then the democrats for the first time
changed front. On the vote to re-
peal the Sherman law, 152 declared
against silver and 96 for it. From
this it can be seen that neither of the
the old parties can be relied on to do
anything for free coinage.
