Ed. Register-The happy days of a
visit home fly away so swiftly that al
most uncOnsciously four weeks are
gone. and l have not written to you
yet.
We found friends we'll, and prospects
for harvest very fine.
We have truly enjoyed our visit and
have rested by boating and fishing.
The advantage of fishing was that we
always left enough fish in the river
that it was necessary to return for
them the next day.
While we have enjoyed the pleasures
of old associates and old associations,
we have found the low country very
hot and have longed for the cool nights
of the mountains. Nor have we for
gotten the good people of Ironton
while visiting amongst old friends.
We receive the REGISTER each week,
and we read every local item. with in
creased interest, and are beginning to
long for our new home amongst the
mountains and amongst our new
friends.
Let me take now the privilege of
sending our greetings to all our ac-
quaintances through your paper, and
to express our good feeling toward all
of them. Sincerely.

Democratic Mass Meeting.

Pursuant to call of the Executive
Committee, the Democrats of Iron
County met in mass convention at the
courthouse in Ironton, on Friday,
August I'd, 1895. The meeting was
called to order by Mr.. C. K. Polk.
Chairman of the Executive Committee,
and on motion DR.. G. w. Farrar was
elected Chairman and E. d. AXE, Sc
cretary.
The Chairman explained the object
of the meeting, viz: to select two del
egates to represent Iron county in the
State Convention at Fertile Springs on
the 9th inst.
On motion, the following was adopted
by standing vote, without dissent:
1--WE instruct our delegates to the
State Convention to present the follow
ing declaration of principles and views
as embodying our sentiments on the
financial question, which question we
regard as of the greatest Importance,
affecting more interests and people
than any other question before the
country, and demanding an early, just
and permanent settlement.
list. We believe in the COnstitu-
tional System of Bimetaiism-of gold
and silver-coined at the present ratio
of I6 to 1. without restriction or dis
elimination: and we denounce the de-
monetizing act of 1873 as the greatest
of financial wrongs. causing panics,
destroying values, increasing debts,
and unsetling business in general
which will continue until that wrong
is righted.
..2d. Whilst we would gladly coop
crate with other nations in aid of BIZ
meLalism. we emphatically deny our
dependence on them for our liberty
and ability to make our own laws. In
finance as in other matters, and as this
country is the greatest producer OF sill
yer, it is our duty to be the most &C
tive in the reconciliation and use of it.
I'D. Weoppose the National Bank
ing System-by which the government
surrenders it's chief function of supply
ing and controlling the money of the
country to them-as the most danger
GUS example of class legislation. and
one of the strongholds of the single
gold standard-of bond issues and plu-
tocracy in general.
On motion, DIR. Ira A. Marshall and
f. ID. AXE were elected delegates. and
after a few remarks by the Chairman
upon the prominent question OF the
time. the meeting adjourned sine die.

sorrow has no tears to dry, when

minor questions. There once lived in
these parts an old gentleman by the
name of Casey who is said to have
been a great story teller. Among 9TH

fighting when all at once they began
to climb each other. Up they went
until they went out of sight and it
rained black cat hair for three days.

and the old time din of the hammer is
again to be heard from morn till night.
The Schneider company at present
are doing very little in the stone cut

that when one of our granite cOmpan-

so happens none can say. During the
