ONE Of the most remarkable con-
ventions of the present year was
that of the Farmers National Con-
gress, held at Atlanta, Ga. last
week. The congress is presumed
to represent the farmers of the
whole country, and the Farmers
Alliance, one of the adjuncts of the
Peoples Party. Upon the ques-
ton Of petitioning Congress to "use
both gold and silver upon parity,
and calling for an international
conference on the monetary ques-
tion,o an amendment to insert the
words Eat the ratio of Is to 1, was
defeated by a vote Of 251 to 104.
The same congress, the same day,
defeated resolution declaring OPP
position to the further issuance of
interest bearing government bonds
under any circumstances. The
congress is significant in this, that
it is plainly the intention of the
great majority of the people Of this
country to perpetuate the single
gold standard at all hazards, and
thinking men, students Of finance
unbiased by self-interest, are won
dering where we shall end. In the
business world there is always a
time for the settlement of accounts,
and the same principal will apply
with governments. The United
States has declared for the gold
standard in the face of the fact
that urinterest obligations already
exceed largely the yearly supply,
and that means constant drain of
gold from the treasury. The issu-
ance of government bonds can now
be regarded as regular thing.
As farmers are usually opposed to
politicians and the banks, the At
lanta Congress is one Of the signifi-
cant straws Of the the times Min
ing Gazette.

Had to Take His Turn

In the days Of General Sam
Houston dueling was much more
common than now.
After removing to Texas Gen
eral Houston happenedto give an
offehse to political opponent, who
felt his honor disfigured to such an
extent that he sent a challenge to
Houston. The bearer of the chal-
lenge was received with courtly
civility. He handed the written
challenge to General Houston, who
read it, and, taking up his pen,
wrote something across the back Of
the folded paper and placed it in a
pigeonhole of his desk. He then
went on to entertain the bearer Of
the challenge with the pleasant
conversation for which he was
noted. After a time the man be-
gan to grow impatient, and, remind
ing the general of the challenge,
asked him if he was going to reply
ooh, yes," said Houston, II am
going to reply"
"Well, are you going to accept
the challenge of my friend?"
Certainly, | will accept it."
"Will you fix the date for to-
morrow"
"No, not tomorrow"
Next day."
mo, not the next day, either"
'Well, will you fix a date?"
"No, / am not able to fix date.
You saw me number your friends
note. 1t is No. 40. There are for
ty-eight other BANKED scoundrels
ahead of your friend and | must
take them in turn. AS soon as /
have killed them off / will attend
to your friend, But he will have
to wait until his turn comes"
The bearer of the challenge bow
ed himself out, but of course his
friends turn never came, and it. is
not probable that he was anxious
for it to come.

Why does the commercial press
eulogize throwing open the govern
ment vaults to the plumber of gold
gamblers, when the law protects the
gold in the Treasury by authorizing
redemption in silver? Because, if
such speculations as the Austrian
swindle andothe bond deal of Feb
ruary last we're stopped, the resour-
ces of the commercial press might
be seriously affected.

AS the result of wager the fol-

II promise nothing; / engage to

The impotence and apparent
candor of this cool appeal to the
public met with every success.
Stamps rained in for several days,
so that the winner Of the wager was
able to hand over a considerable
sum to a local charity, after which
he tOld'the story in the newspapers,

ADVERTISING is a distinct art, as
much so as the art of coal min
ing or of engine building. To be a
successful advertiser on must at
least understand the rudiments Of
the science. Any one can write an
advertisement, and almost anyone
can write it to please the adver-
tiser; but often the advertisement
which is 50 gratifying to the writer
will hardly attract a passing notice
from the possible customer. Wheth-
er or not the advertisement be
pleasing to the writer or advertiser
is a question of small consideration,
but vital Importance hinges upon
the capacity of the advertisement
to attract the people, and, by at
tracing them, gain their intelli-
gent attention, which, once obtain
ed must force the grist of the
advertisement into their minds,
and, if they are available custom
ers to the line advertised, impress
upon them the wisdom of an in
spection of the goods advertised.

AMERICAN farmers are unques-
tionably at the head of their bust
ness, and there is good reason to
believe that American fruit-growers
will occupy similar position before
many years. The demand for our
fruit is growing in Europe, and it
is already acknowledged that our
apples are unequaled. The Italian
lemon crop is very poor this year,
and but for the Florida freeze we
might perhaps be shipping lemons
to Palermo.

THE Los Angeles Times discusses
the question: Glow to mature pa

between a PARTISAN and a patriot,
a politician and statesman, and

IT looks as if the time had come
when the practical merits of the
Monroe doctrine will be tested.
The dispute over the Venezuelan
boundary involves the. question of
American supremacy, to relinquish
which in this case will mean the
passing of theory upon which
our statesmen have loved to harp
for years past One good derived
from an argument with arms on
the subject would be to give the
White Sqadron a chance for actual
employment instead Of the orna-
mental usage Of the present at the
expense of taxpayers all over the
Union.

Look about you and answer by
the light of your own surroundings;
Is it not true that since the demon
citation of silver values have de-
preciated, the rich become richer
and the poor poorer, and that such
economic conditions have been
created that the great bulk of the
property of the country is passing
into the hands of the favored few?

Our people are desperate; we are
approaching war between the rich
and the poor, and / look for lots Of
throat-cutting between now and
1900. The millionaires have OPP
pressed the masses until the latter
are like a squeezed lemon. They are
unable to educate their children, to
travel and improve their minds or
to read books, papers and magazines.
They merely make living and a
scant one at that. They have grown
desperate. The millionaires buy
up half the mass esq put arms In
their hands to intimidate the other
half, and thus keep them all in sub
lection. The time is coming when
these people will rise up in a bloody
conflict / look for it during the
next presidential election or the one
after that. All the writer's on our
government unite in declaring that
if the republic ever goes to pieces it
will be during a presidential elect
ion, in conflict over the spoils Of
office. Calhoun told the truth when
he said that the tendency of repub-
lies was ,owards despotism, never
toward democracy. So firmly do |

of Hardin, of Kentucky, in refusing

Mr.. EDISON is at work on the
problem of using the great accum-
ulation of refuse at the coal mines
to generate electric power for trans
mission to distant points. He says
there is no difficulty in sending
power from the Niagara Falls plant
to Buffalo, fifteen miles distant, I'M
less the low cost of coal at Buffalo
is economically in the way. The
inventor has not given up his idea
Of producing electricity directly
from coal without the use of fire,
steam or machinery, but the utili-
cation of the culm banks at the coal
mines need not, wait upon the solu-
ton Of that fascinating problem in

The fact that Green Forest bas
one OF the best High Schools in
the State, has done moro toward
the advancement and Improvement
OF our town than all other things
combined during the past two
years. Some of the most substan-
tial citizens of Carroll county hay
become property owners and resi-
dents of our town during this time
solely on account of the school.
The County Normal which will
convene here next month TO last
one month, is wholly attributable
to our High School, through its
able Superintendent, Prof. II. 2.
Burney. Just what value this will
be to our town is simply beyond
calculation. Let us do all in our
power to maintain the school.
Even talk to the contrary is OF the
most damaging nature to the future
welfare OF the town and can come
from only the avowed enemies OF
our social and moral advancement.
