WASHINGTON, D. c., Jan. o.
Silver Dick Bland made to-day what
will possibly be his last great fight
in Congress on behalf of silver. He
vigorously opposed the report of the
Committee on Rules regarding the
disposition OF the currency bill on
the ground that the report, if adopt
cd, would not afford him u sufficient
opportunity to offer his free coinage
amendment.
Bland 10 naturally much elated
over his victory in having defeated
the report of the Committee on
Rules by vote of 129 to 122, which
kills all chances Of currency iegisla :
ton for this session.
The House is now going to device
itself to passage of appropriation
bills.
Quinlan believed to be Insane.
Thomas Quinlan, who shot and
killed Gcttfried Kloppenstein at
Larrabee, this county, in December,
1898, as was recently reported, is
considered insane.
Prosecuting Attorney J. G. Trim
BILE, of this county, and Ras Pear
son, of Pike County, have appealed
to Governor Stone to remove the
old man from the Pike County Jail
at Bowling Green, No., and to have
him sent to the State Insane Asylum
at Fulton.
1t is not known whether the Gov.
ernor will do this. He may
claim that since Quinlan has never
been sentenced (his case having al,
ready been appealed for a new trial)
that he has not the power to send
him to the asylum.
The Circuit Court does not again
convene in Pike County till Feb.
ruary, and it is thought by many
that if the old man is not removed
from the Jail at once that he will
die before the next term of court.
His extent of life will likely depend
upon the action of the Governor.

THE governor of South Carolina is in

thirty-five years of experience been sutfi-

neither the state nor the nation has any
rights that the courts are bound to re-

their power is absolute and there is nc
appeal from their will. The representa-

AFTER all what good is to be accom-
plished by al the discussion which is
going on regarding the silver question.
Each side in the controversy is looking
out for its own interests. The million
aires, the bankers, the money loaners, the
capitalists and all who are in receipt of
fixed incomes which do not proceed from
their own labor favor a gold standard.
1t is natural that they should. 1t is to
their advantage. There is an occasional
exception, like W. P. ST. John, the New
York banker. On the other hand, the
poor, the wages arners, the farmers and
the laboring classes generally favor the
bi-metallic standard, and it is natural tn at
they should. No amount of argument
will alter the facts, neither will it alter
the opinion of either side materially.
The moneyed classes have no interest in
the welfare of the poor, and the poor
feel no interest in the welfare of the rich.
The advocates of BIZ metallism believe
that the free coinage of silver will make
the rich poorer, and they don't care if il
does. The moneyed classes believe that
gold standard will make them richer
at the expense of the poor, and that's
what they want What's the use for the
goldbugs to try to make the masses be-
lieve that a gold standard is better fol
them when they don't believe it them
selves. The question must, and will be
settled on the basis of the greatest GOOD
to the greatest number.

IT is reported that there are $4,000
head of Mexican cattle on the border,
ready to be shipped into the American
markets. So large a number of cattle
ought to have marked effect on the
price of beef. When it is considered
that all prices in Mexico are SO low ow-
ing to that country's being on a silver
basis, and that one of our dollars is worth
two of theirs, these cattle must have been
bought for almost nothing. This view of
the matter is of course from the sound
money standpoint.
