We want the race to go our way,
And if a Southern man can get
There first, he is the man, you bet;
But please observe this sentiment:

Too much so for that high estate;
These fat men often seem to be
Controlled by their obesity.

Therefore observe this sentiment:
Not Hoke, but Dink, for President!
Smiths but the name of myriad men;
What's Hoke but rhyme for joke, AGAIN.
While Bolts. Dink Bolts! alone it stands
The only one OF many lands;
The pride of Georgia, and a name
To sweep through politics to fame.
Therefore, observe this sentiment:
Not Hoke, but Dink for President.
Where Hoke is wide, Dink Bolts Is deep;
Where Hoke would limp, Dink Bolts would
Where Hoke would stammer Dink would
Where Hoke would sink. Dlnk Bolts swims
Where Hoke would walk, Dink Bolts would
run: .
Where Hoke would weep, Dlnk Bolts has
Where Hoke would lose, Dink Bolts will
Where Hoke would fly, Dink goes right in;
Where Hoke is weakest Dink is strong;
Where Dink is solid. Hoke is wrong;
And so on, SouthronS, to the end,
In ali things good, Dink is your friend.

The anniversary of the birth of Cen

the silent efforts to influence the genera
tons since the war to believe that he
was inferior as a military commander
to several Confederates, and particularly
to General Lee. Probably some of this
sentiment has it's inspiration in the
venomous attacks of Donn Piatt's book
upon Grant and others of the more sue
cessful Union leaders. Besides, there

arrangement for the assumption of
Nicaragua's Indemnity TO Great Britain,

of the smart money as satisfaction for
the injury to the person Of her consul

wants is time. The amount of the in
demnity, $75,0 900, is large for her. but
nothing for the United States. It's pay

The Sentinel says that 1.-THE crime of
1872" as it terms the passage of the
coinage act dropping the silver dollar,
was a crime of ignorance--a crime Of
making a great change in our monetary
system without submitting it to public
single gold standard since 1916, as Ger
many had adopted the single gold stand
ard in 1871, and as the Latin Union was
getting ready to stop the coinage of sill
yer, a policy which was carried out by
limiting the coinage of five-franc pieces
in 1874 and suspending it altogether in
1873, it is not easy to see why the sus-
pension of coinage of silver dollars by
the United States in 1878 should be
called a blunder any more than a crime.
The continued free coinage of silver by
the United States alone could not have
been maintained at that time any more
than it could be now, and the fact that
it does not exist at present in any great
commercial country goes to Show that
there were very strong reasons for the
act. Those reasons were strong enough
to convince the best monetary experts
of thu lay that it should be done, and,
in view of contemporaneous conditions,
it is by no means certain that it was a
mistake. However, the thing to do now
is, If possible, to get silver back into an
assured place in the worlds currency.
