"EFFRON'TERY."

But to say that this last Congress
/ did nothing for silver except to give it
a black eye and that the Democratic
party was responsible, it being in
power in the presidency and in both
Houses of Congress, our neighbor de-
clares to be effrontery. What about
the logic that our neighbor prides it
self on possessing?"
This is a quotation from our morning
contemporary. As is very common with
that paper, it states but half of the
proposition. 1t also misstates our po-
sition in reference to "Iogic" The
Herald has never boosted of it's own
logic, but has repeatedly and effectu-
ally exposed the lack of logic in it's
opponent down the street.
The effrontery alluded to by The
Herald on the part of the Tribune is
this: The Republican party, after de-
monetizing silver in 1873, as confessed
by every Republican advocate of free
coinage, refused to undo it's work dur
ing the twenty years succeeding that
act, and when it had full power to ac-
cOmplish all that it desired to effect in
that direction. The Democratic party
has had congressional and executive
power during but one session of Con-
gress. 1t is effrontery to charge the
Democratic party with dealing a death
blow to silver. when the paper making
the accusation has asserted that dur
ing that same Congress:
The Republican party by it's repre-
sentatives in Congress has shown it
self basely, idiotically recreant on the
silver question, without sense or party
advantage, indeed contrary to both.
The Republican representatives could
al any stage of the vote have carried the
day. They could have forced free
coinage at 20 to /; they could have Sc
cured it at 16 to |; they could have de-
feated the Wilson repeal BILL
In view of these facts, we repeat it
is effrontery on the part of our Repub-
lican neighbor to berate the Demo-
cratic party for its action on the silver
question during the late session of
Congress. The party was pledged to
the repeal of the Sherman purchase
infamy, and its representatives in
Congress were aided by the Republi-
cans in wiping the miserable make
shift off the statute book Perhaps our
illogical neighbor down the street can
understand now where its "effrontery''
comes in.

BIG COAL COMBINATIONS.

Combinations of coal mining interests
seem to be the order of the day. A few
weeks ago numerous Ohio coal producers
ly the two largest mining companies in
Alabama have pooled their interests and
added % cents per ton to the price of
their fuel. Now it is proposed to extend
this Alabama combination so as to in
clude all the mine operators in Georgia.
Alabama, Tennessee and Kentucky, and
an organization for this purpose has been
formed News comes too from the north
west telling of the revival and reorgani-
cation of the Minnesota coal trust, which
was driven out of existence by the Min
nesota legislature last winter. This is an
age of trusts, and experience has shown
that the arm of the law is rarely long
enough to reach such combinations when
there are so many legal loopholes through
which they may eScape.-Philadelph

RESCUED BY FOLLOWING THE
COWS.

A prominent Pittsfield society woman
met with a peculiar experience Tuesday
and for several hours her friends were
much alarmed over her safety. She ac-
companied a party of young children TO
South Mountain in the forenoon, intent
ing to spend the day in an outing. They
climbed to the summit and there separat-
ed, the elder one agreeing to meet the
youngsters al an hour and a place agreed
upon; connections were missed, however,
and the result was that the children re-
turned home and gave the alarm. The
authorities were notified and searching
party of several men started out in the
middle of the afternoon. The wanderer
turned up safe and sound about o'clock.
She had lost her way in the underbrush
on the south side of the mountain and
strolled about a long time looking for a
clearing to get her bearings, when finally
she CHANGED upon several cows, and, be-
lieving that their instinct would carry
them to a safe place at sunset, she fol-
lowed them, and was rewarded as she
expected. Her relatives and friends had
become very anxious and her welcome
home, was hearty and joyful.-Springfe

THE AxGLICIzED CROKER.

There is too much liberty given the
American newspapers in matters political
to suit Richard Croker, erstwhile Tam
many boss. He is in London, where he is
instituting comparisons between the Eng
lish and American press. His admira-
ton for the former is unconstrained.
Were the United States journals conduct
ed after the manner of the British dallieS
Mr.. Croker would still be rolling up mil
lions at the head of a band of plunderers.

TWO KINDS OF CHICKS.

The ST. Louis Republic is in the posi-
ton of the old hen caring for brood
of chickens and ducks; it is trying to
care for both silver Democrats and gold
Democrats and is constantly agitated
because the silver chickens prefer to
stay on Uncle Sans dry land, while the
goldbug ducks manifest a desire to swim
in English water.-Omaha World-Herald

afraid to say openly that they are for

ardly and most vacillating partisans of
that description on this green earth. Why
don't they do something?-Denver News.

Persia May Be Represented-Th Corr respondents to Be Looked

ATLANTA, Ga., Jan. 30.-President Collier received through the state depart ment today communication from Minis ter Mcdonald at Teheran, enclosing one from the prime minister of Persia, who says that the invitation to take part in the Cotton States and International exposition was laid before the shah and his majesty has ordered the minister of commerce to bring the exposition to the attention of the merchants of that country.

POOR INDEEDl

The prospect of relief from drastic ca thartics for persons troubled with consti- patton is poor indeed. True they act upon the bowels, but this they do with violence, and their operation tends to weaken the intestines and is prejudiclal to the stomach. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is an effectual laxative, but it neither gripes nor en- feebes. Furthermore, it promotes diges- tion and regular action of the liver and the kidneys. It is an efficient barrier against and remedy for malsrial complaints and rheumatism, and is of great benefit to the weak, nervous and aged. As medic- inal stimulant it cannot be surpassed. Physicians cordially recommend it, and it's professional indorsement is fully borne out by popular experience. Appetite and sleep are both improved by this agreeable invigorant and alterative.

that they could not operate their road. This was done by discharging skilled elec- trlcal employees, who had refused in tho event of a strike to take motormen's places. This act of the company had made 1t dam gerous for the motormen to continue work, and had precipitated the strike. This was 8 different situation from a mere failure to operate tbe road. The company had en- forced unlawful actions and disregarded the public in the running of cars at a high rate of speed. In two years the trolleys had caused fifty five deaths and over 300 acci- dents.
 The men might work for 50 cents day if they choose; that was not in the ques- tion here. The disregard of lives and prop erty had resulted in drawing out 10, 600 troops. In view of the willful violations of the law it was the duty of the attorney general to take such steps as were necessary in the public's behalf.
 The company had violated section of the railroad law of 1892, which said the Company could employ any inhabitant of the state. In order to operate it's cars the company had established agencies in many of the large cities of the country to get the -men needed to take the places of the former employees This was 8 violation of the pub lie policy of the state and of the company's charter.
 Judge Gaynor has intimated that there were matters for the attorney general to consider in the situation. When Mir. Dennison had concluded Attorney Moore Shlu tne company wanted Llfne to put ln answers to the affidavits.

 MT. Moses objected to delay. He said the counsel had had a month B time to pre- pare for all the great uestions which have arisen.
 MT. Trull, for the company, declared that the papers furnished no ground for ac- ton by the attorney general against the company. There had been no single act of violence committed during the strike for which the strikers were not responsi- ble. They had assaulted and carried away American citizens desiring to work, and the answering atfidavits would show it.
 Attorney General Hancock said he would adjourn the hearing and serving of answer ing afiidavits until Monday at 2 D. m., counsel for the petitioners to be served Saturday

Sheffield Standard.
 Yes, the constitution of 1876 was an an. swer to a demand for a reorganization of society and the building up of waste places. The present demand for a constitution is based upon broader ideas and higher aspi- rations-something commensurate with the progress and enlightenment of the times We want more liberal rights to help our selves in the development of our grand and unparalleled resources and to obtain the utmost security in the enjoyment of liberty and the blessings of good government. We want law, fixed in bedrock, that will pro- vide the wisest qualifications for suffrage for the widely diversified character of our population and that will point an unerring way for the maintenance of the purity of the ballot box. By all means let the peo- pie of Alabama take stock of their ideas of a republican form of government, discard what gre insufficient to the demands of the times and adopt what will give new cour- age to hope, stimulate enterprise afresh and give the honest people of the state cause for abiding trust in the integrity of their institutions.

The state- ments in this reporG are particularly gratify- ing, and should give our citizens of Jefferson cause of graduation, ali things considered.

ITALIANS MIGRATING.
A FORGED REDUCTION OF WAGES CAUSES
 

FORGED REDUCTION OF WAGES CAUSES A
 GENERAL PANIC.
 NEW ORLEANS, Jan. 30.-The steamship Montebello, which is engaged in the trans portation of fruit from Palermo, Italy, to this port, will weigh anchor here tomor- row with at least 800 passengers on board. The list will be composed entirely of Italians who emigrated to Louisiana in order to secure work on sugar plantations, but now, owing to the destruction of the bounty, found their wages cut to 50 cents day, and in consequence are unable to live on earnings so meager. It Is said that a general unrest prevails among all the Italians who have recently arrived at this port, and 1t is said that within thirty days at least 1000 of them will ship from here to some other country where the times are more prosperous.
