The Holden Enterprise is fight
ing the proposition the county court
of Johnsan county has submitted to
the voters to build a new court
house at Warrensburg to cost $780,.
900. The argument the Enterprise
uses against the construction of this
needed improvement for the county,
is baby twaddle. johnson county
has no court house, the offices are
farmed out about town and the En-.
terprise ought to have more county
pride and less sectional hate and
support the proposition.

It will be gratifying news to every
democrat in the state, who has the
best interests of the party at heart,
to know that the state committee
has healed the wounds which have
been bleeding for some time and
that meeting of the members, new
and old, has been called to meet in
st. Louis in December. At this
meeting harmony will prevail and =
stop will be put to the wrangling
that has been going on.

Ex-Governor Francis is an i'm
portant factor in politics in this
state and he holds opposite views
on the policy of the party to certain
other members thereof, but it is hard
ly possible for him to be the main
instigator and sole embodyment of
the disaffection in the party that has
existed u p to the calling of the
committee for December 3rd, as
some SO called democratic news.
papers would have us believe.
No one man in this state owns, con
trolls, dictates or bosses the great
democratic party. Governor Fran
els has always shown himself to be
good democrat, hard worker in
the ranks and his views on the party
policy are entitled to the same re-
spect and honesty of purpose as
those of Mr.. Bland or any other
prominent member of the party.
This abuse, wraugling and calling
names ought to be stopped. and the
reform should begin with the papers
which are almost, if not entirely,
responsible for the SO called disatfec-
tion which has heretofore existing in
party. The committee has been
called, the new members recog-
nized,now let there be no gold bugs,
no silverites, and but one united
democratic party for this state.

Of the wagons at the pier they were
driven close to the steamer. An ex

use OF the men who carried the gold

ovERMYER's VIEWS.

At a recent meeting of the demo
cratic sfate central committee in To
peks there WAS some discussion as to
the time Of election OF Chief Justice
Of the Supreme conrt, Some OF the
committee took the stpnd that an
election held next fall would not be q
general election aud that therefore
the choice Of Il Chief Justice at that
time would be illegal. To settle the
question committee Of five lawyers
was chosen to investigate and the
first Of the opiuons has been present.
I'd by Hon. David Overmyer, to
gether with SIM" remarks concerning
the silver stand rhat the party ought
to take, ~ follows
Mr.. Overmyer says:
u am satisfied that the unexpired
term of Chief Justice Horton must be
filed by the election at the November
election of 1895.

interest merely we must pay to Eng
land every year $50 millions.
Our total supply Of gold and silver
money, available for all uses, does not
exceed 1900 millions. Under these
startling conditions, when our coun-
try is urgently needing every dollar
Of our silver and gold to assist us In
meeting these tremendous obliga-
tions, our highest officials are en-
deavoring TO persuade us that it is
the right policy to destroy one-hali
our supply Of money.
Surely such a policy could only
spring from insanity, imbecility or
villainy. No one will accuse the gold
schemers Of imbecility or insanity,
The destruction of one-half our
metallic money, our redemption
money, will inevitably double the
commercial value of the other half.
1t has already done so. The value Of
all other property must sink one'half
or more. 1t has already done so.
Even now we have a bitter taste Of
the result
1t is also inevitable that the pro-
ductiou Of gold must decrease in the
near future. There is a fixed guam
hty Of the precious metals planted in
the earth by the Almighty--that, and
no more. There are no new lands to
discover, with fresh gold mines to re-
ward the seeker. The search for
gold has been pressed by restless
man with all the appliances of mod
ern science, and with all the stimulus
Of greed. 1t is altogether improbable
that fresh mines will be discovered.
The supply of gold must gradually,
perhaps rapidly, decrease after few
more years. AS the supply decreases
Its value must increase. The values
Of all other property must then in
evitably sink lower aud lower year
by year. The purchasing power Of
gold will increase three fold, five fold,
ten fold-where will it stop as 1t
grows scarcerS Debts will become
Increasingly difficult Of payment.
Under a single standard gold sys-
tenn 1t is plain that we have but start
ed on the period Of declining values
for other property. Prolonged par
alysis Of business must ensue, and all
the horrors so powerfully pictured by
Mr.. Carlisle in 1878 will be more than
realized.
This, fellow-citIzens, is the fearful
fate to which false guides would lead
US. It is startling to contemplate.
Our enemies, the gold advocates,
are a compact, powerful organization,
familiar with all the tactics Of such a
warfare, watchful, unscrupulous, and
above all supplied most abundantly
with money dishonesty extorted from
the people, and now used for their
destruction. 1t is no sixty days"
struggle, but graphing of giants
for life or death, for existence or
destruction.
The friends Of silver-the hosts OF
the people-must organize and throw
their strength as one man. With all
earnestness Of soul we appeal to them
to organize, organize, organize-iD
every state, county, city. village and
hamlet organize.
For once let us subordinate every
other question to this burning issue.
Let patriotism prevail over party
Our cause is just. The people are
awakening. Division alone eau de-
feat us. Unity will save us.

ENLARGING THE JAIL.
The Scheme to Render the Prisoners
More Comfortable.

The Scheme 10 Render the Prisoners
More Comfortable.
The county jail Is badly overcrowded
and ever since the beginning of his
term Warden Boland has been at loss
to know what to do with his extra pris-
oners. A few days ago 172 men were
confined In the Jail. and as only three
have been discharged since. there are
still 1863 in Jail; and the healthy capacity
of the prison is only 102. For 4 year
past II has been apparent that some
thing must be done to accommodate the
immense crowd of criminals and the
county commissioners have taken the
matter in hand. Several schemes have
been proposed, but as yet none have
been adopted. Among them Is the ex-
tension of the wing. commencing at the
boiler house, into the side of the hill at
the rear. and the other Is the entire re-
moval Of the hill. II the former Is
adopted, 1t will be detrimental to the
health OF prisoners. The cells will have
the appearance and every condition Of
those on the basement floors, and will
be damp, gloomy and unhealthy. But
IL the entire hill Is taken away an ad-
dition of any desired size can be erect
ed and still be a healthy place. The
hill Is composed of shelly rock. which
could be used to good advantage on the
streets or on the river bank. Whatever
changes are to be made must be made
at once.

THE COMPANY'S SIDE.
What They Say About the south Washing.
ton Street Switch,

The answer Of the Traction company
to the bill In equity recently filed by
DR.. Weaver and James Campbell was
given into the care of the prothonotary
yesterday. This case. 1t will be re-
membered. was about a switch which
the Traction company laid one dark
night. in front of the properties of
James Campbell and DR.. Weaver, on
South Washington street. The answer
Of the company is as follows:
That they had right to construct a
switch or turnout; that the space left
between car and curb Is quite sufficient
for ordinary public travel; there Is no
hindrance to travel nor danger to life
and no damage to Weaver's or Camp
bells property; that there is a necessity
for the switch in order that cars going
In different directions may pass.
They further say that their right to
construct and operate the switch is de-
rived from a charter of Coalviile Pas
senger Railroad company, the consent
Of the municipality OF Wilkes-Barre re-
luired by said charter and the necessity
Of such switch or turnout.
The Traction company asks to have
the bill dismissed with their costs in
this behalf wrongfully sustained. H. "A.
Fuller appears as attorney for Traction
company.

Yesterday morning another mail car
rier was bitten by dog, and this time
the unfortunate was John Jeremy, who
was tackled by the brute as he en-
tered the house Of Russell Brown, 24S

when he entered the yard. paid no at
tention to the dog, which was lying
by the fence. After ne had passed the
dog sprang at him, biting him in the
right leg and running his trousers. The
wound was cauterized and Jeremy will
be all right In a few days.
