Some of the active young Demo
Gratis of the county have taken
steps looking to the formation of a
young Mems Democratic Club.
1t is proposed to put the organiza-
ton on a permanent and an etfec-
tive basis. There is fine opening
for the organization to do some
most effective work, and we hope
to see the organization perfected
in such manner as will bring
about results beyond the utmost
expectation of its promoters. A
call for such an organization is
being actively circulated and
names secured and in few days
notice will be given of call to eff
feet the organization. 1t is pro-
posed to start with some three or
four hundred members and then
push it till every young Democrat
in the county is enrolled in its
ranks. Go in boys and win.

Respectfully Yours.
EDITOR OF THE TINES.

Well, what do you think of it?
The time for any Democrat tC
make his "kick," if he had one to
make, was before Mr.. Horton was
nominated. The threat conveyed in
the above is not manly, nor was it to
be looked for from any good Dem
Ocrat. We are constrained to hope
the Editor of the Times" either
wrote without fully estimating the
force of his language or was simp-
ly vOicing the words of one who
had spoken inadvisely. No good
Democrat wants to be found in
any way embarrassing the nomi-
nee of his party.
Suppose Mr.. Horton should fail
to do as these unnamed Democrats
demand, who would they heartily
support! There is to De Demo-
c;atic and Republican candidate;
will they better matters much by
heartily supporting the Republican
and comprising the defeat Of the
Democratic nominee?
Mr. Horton is man of far too
much sense to engage, while can
didate, in any unnecessary efforts
at card writing" and he will
probably ignore entirely the card"
of the Editor of the Times"
For the benefit of the Editor of
the Times" and those of his friends
who are so much disturbed over
this matter, we repeat an EXPIRES
sion we heard Mr.. Horton make a
few days since in the presence Of
several gentlemen One Of them
asked him, "WhO is your choice for
United States Senator?" He reJ
Piled in substance, "Who my choice
happens to be makes little differ
ence. i go to Frankfort to reflect
the wishes of my constituents. Il
shall vote for the man whom II e
Majority of the Democrats of the
district shall designate"
We have no authority from Mr..
Horton to repeat his expression
on this matter, but it was publicly
made and we, therefore, take the
liberty of using it.

There will be conferences for county
officers to discuss ways and means,
The latest me ,hods Of S. s. work will

as to awaken thought and arouse to
action. There will be a Teachers
Exchange. The Home Glass Depart
ment and Normal Work will be ably
presented. S. S. Work in the Noun

address which will reveal many in

 Japan, China, Mexico and the Spanish-American countries not only all use silver money, but they are on a silver basis and all their money is silver. In Japan wages are about l24 cents day, in silver; in China about cents per day and in Mexico B cents per day is con sideredl big wages. And it must also be remembered that in these countries the purchasing power of silver is about one-half what it is ih the United States.
