governor r. F. Kolb, the man who was
elected to that Office, but counted out, in
1892. In its resolutions the convention
adopted the following:
ain the midst Of prosperous peace,
possessed OF the richest and most fruit
full country on the face Of the globe, with
q succession Of bountiful hGrvests, hsv-
ing frugal, intelligent, enterprising and
industrious population, with inexhausti-
bic resources Of soil, minerals and staple
productions, and form of government
the most sensible and propitious for the
spread Of universal happiness and pros
perity, we find at this time the people Of
the state OF Alabama and of the whole
United States envirOned with conditions
that threaten destitution, misery, suffer
ing and want never before known in our
Country's history. We find confidence
destroyed. Men from necessity are
growing sordid and selfish. The moral
and religious foundations Of our Civihzs-
tion are being undermined with q dan
gsrous spirit that substitutes vice for
virtue and greed Of power, wealth for
honor and morality to such an extent
that civilization itself is threatened, and
believing that these conditions have
been brought about and are now being
nurtured by the two political parties,
we, the Peoples party, in state conven-
tion assembled, do put forth the follow
ing platform Of principles:
ave are actusted by a common
brotherhood, espousing common cause,
Cemented by a common interest, and
having in view common result we will
labor to common end.
"With steadfast faith in the principles
Of the Omaha platform, we unhesitat-
ingly renew our allegiance to the doc
trines therein announced, and will exert
our utmost energies in the coming cleo
tions to have them engrsfted upon our
statutes.
sour faith is unshRken in the good re-
suits to come from purged and purified
ballot box, and we are, therefore, now,
as we were in 1892, for a free vote and q
fair count, and insist that the hun-blest
citizen should be permitted to cast his
vote without fear, constraint or other un-
due influence, and when cast should be
honestly counted, unmOlested by un-
sCrupulous party managers or henohmen
to substitute it with one of their own
choosing, or outnumbsred with the vote
of fictitious persons who do not exist or
did not vote.
"As Thomas Jefferson was opposed to
any restrictions upon the suffrage of
men, so are we, except it be for some
grades Of crime, among which we would
place the purchase or sale Of q vote, or
other interference with the honest ex-
preston Of the will Of the people at the
ballot box.

THE HEIGHT OF INSANITY.

$ nator q rman in his sIeech IN the
SeLate in reply 90 Senator Sherman,
charged that the Mckinley bill did not
raise enough revenue TO support the
Government, but Senator Sherman
promptly replied that he would prove
from the official figures furnished him
10y the Treasury Department that
the statement Wis not supported by
facts. Mr.. German endeavored to re-
flute the reply by dragging in the sinking
fund. Senator AIdrich pertinently in
quired why lie included the sinking
fund and asked whether it was the pur-
pose Of the party for whom Senator
German spoke TO provide revtn nue. for
the present and the future which will
not only meet the current expenses of
the Government but the sinking fund
itself.
Senator German replied: II will say to
the S.natr from Rhode Island that |
can not conceive that there would be
insanity enough in any party i'll this
country which had control of the gov
ernment To deliberately enact laws
which would not produce revenue enough
for the support of government and re-
sort TO the sale of bonds to make up the
deficit"
Senator German has rightly charac-
lied the action of his party. 1t is
insanity, or worse, for the Democracy
to pass the Wilson bill. which admit
tedly creates Il deficit, and while asking
the people to applaud it., to ter an
issue of bonds to partly make good the
deficit caused by this bill.
1t is insanity that will be taken care
of ut the polls next full.

THE PARIS EXECUTION.

The blade of the guillotine fell this
morning and the world is rid of one
more anarchist.
Auguste valiant never believed that
he would be executed for his horrible
crime in the Chamber of Deputies. His
cleve-ly played role of martyr and his
bold, even insolent defiance of the law
are sufficient proofs that he expectt d
ultimately to go free. So thought
Spies, Parsons and others after
the Haymarket horror. America
had never before experienced the anar-
cbist disease and her remedy was swift
and sure. France, like other European
countries. is thoroughly familiar with
them and yet has seldom before pro-
ceeded TO extreme measures to blot them
out.
1t remains TO be seen just how much
the fate of Valiant will retard the
growth of anarchy in the old world.
Here in America the anarchist element
has been very docile since the fateful
November of 1888, when the ringleaders
of the Chicago outrage We're put
to death. Except tor the oc-
casional eruption of Herr Johann
Most's mouth, anarchism is
matter of but passing moment. In
Europe the effect may not be so swiftly
apparent, but eventually every root
and branch of the lawless teachings of
the red handed will be obliterated. Civil
lization is too far advanced to yield to
the antipodal influences of anarchy.

THE DUTY OF THE HOUSE.

This week will probably decide
whether the United States diplomatic
service is or is not TO be made ridiculous
before the nations.
Should the House, either because of
sympathy or for fear of injuring the
future prosperity of the Democratic
party, refuse TO condemn in a fitting
manner the infamous Hawaiian
policy of President Cleveland, the great
republic Cf the United States
may well he held up to tue scorn and
ridicule of the whole world. Never be
fore has she been placed in so delicate a
position. Never before have the states
men Of the world eyed her so critically
as today, The duty of Congress, Demo
cratic though IL be, is plain and un-
equivocal. IL must repudiate and con
denim the man whom its own party
elected.
Rigid investigation may develop that
even sterner measures should be taken.
They are, however. hardly TO be expected
Of a Democratic body. But the House
cannot afford to report approvingly the
Presidents policy. The least Of its'duiy
will be TO condemn.

PICKHAM's CASE.

The friends Of Wheeler III. Peckham
not only feel sure that the Senate's judi
iciary committee will report his name
iavorably 10 the Senate for confirma-
iion 10y the Senate, but also feel
assured of his confirmation by the
Senate, just the reason for their
Insurance. it is difficult TO ascer-
tain. but it is doubtful if it is based on
any more substantial foundation than
their own desires and the hope that the
federal patronage club in the hands of
Cleveland may be able to beat some
of the recalcitrants into line.
The opposition to Peckham is based
on principle. His appointment is made
admittedly ms reward for political
work and also as a club to down an op-
posing political faction.
There are offices enough within the
gift of the Administration with which
the President can reward his friends
without prostituting for that purpose
the ermine of the highest judicial
tribunal in the land
The Supreme Court of the United
States should not be used for any such
purposes. OF all the departments of
this great government, our highest court
is of the most sacred character so far
as its composition is concerned, and
should be absolutely free from
political bias. 1t should not be used as
a reward for faithful political work, nor
should man be appointed to the high
est bench in the land simply to spite
political rival.
If Peckham was pre-eminenr1y fitted
for the place, the method aud the man
ner Of his nomination should call for his
rejection, but even his friends have not
urged that he is specially fitted for the
position.
The farthest the most enthusiastic
admirer Of Peckbam goes is to say that
he is not absolutely untitled TO fill the
position that he is a good lawyer.
His personal disposition is admitted
10 pe such as 10 preclude the possibility
of his possessing broad, judicial mind.
He is II rrow, bigoted and of queru-
lous nature, chronic kicker and
growler with little or no stability of
character.
The President should be taught that
the Supreme Bench of the United
States calls for the ablest and most
talented men of the land; that only
such men are worthy of selection. The
Supreme Bench means life position
and mistake made in the appointment
can only be rectified by the death of the
appointee. Peckham should not be con-
firmed, and it will be interesting to see
whether enough Senator's can be CO.
creed into voting for such man at the
command Of the President.

OBITUARY NOTES.
The Death of Benjamin VI. Drown OF
harrington Deeply Mourncd.


harrington Deeply Mourned.
In the demise Of Benjamin M. Drown
of Drownville, harrington, II. l., the town
has lost one of its most e,timable citi-
zens. He was the only son of the late
Aunt Fanny and Uncle Alfred Drown, 80
called by those who knew the venerable
couple the longest and best for their
neighborly kindness and their
veracity combined with all those
elements OF character which
constitute the foundation Of
personal excellence, which were daily
exhibited, to their life's end. A man born
of such parents would naturally possess
some of those virtues which always COM
mand love and respect. Benjamin, their
only son, died Feb. 1, in his seventy-sec-
ond year, OF pneumonia, the result of
severe cold, contracted while on visit to
the Worlds Fair, Chicago, from
which he never recovered. He from
boyhood followed the vocation Of
farming with his father to the
end of his life. Benjamin was q man
OF no pretension, show or ostentation,
but kind, sympathetic and generous, and
possessed of those characteristics which
can lay claim to public favor without dis
a.
| Republican in his politics and had served
his town in many responsible positions.
While member OF the lower
House of the General Assembly
a friend, long ago passed away, remarked
that, although Mr.. Drown was man OF
modest, gentle and retiring habits, his
decisions, when by vote, were always on
the side OF right, dictated by a strict
adherence to even the smallest details of
veracity, which is the foundation of all
manly and noble character.
His nay was nay without recall
His yea was yea, and powerful all;
He gave his yea with eful heed.
His thoughts and words were we'll agreed.
His word, his bond and seal
His funeral was solemnized at his resi-
dence, Drownville, Saturday, Feb. 3, the
Revs. William M. Chaplin and John w.
Colwell officiating, when a large assembly
OF citizens, friends, neighbors and rela-
tives testified by their presence to the es-
TEEN in which he was held.
