Mississippi orator: "As to the per-
lis of contraction caused by the
withdrawal of greenbacks and
treasury notes, Mr., Carlisle pro-
poses that increased facilities for
Issuing should be extended to the

these are redeemable in gold, and
that in hard times they will prove

they have been to the treasury The

Obituary.

Little Mary Madaline Haynes, the
youngest child of F. B. and Habbie
Haynes, was born December 21st,
1894, and died at 1:3O a. m, July
10th, 1895, near Midway; aged six
months and twenty eight days. She
was buried at Rocky Mount July
Goth, 1896.
Little Madaline had been here Just
long enough to entwine her sweet
life around the hearts of her loving
parents; and, oh how hard it was
to give her up. But such trying
ordeals, while sad and hard to under
60, are the lot of all who have near
and dear relations.
1t is we'll attested fact that God
does not take our loved ones from US
to bring US to Jesus, but has ordained
the gospel for that porpose. So !,
in the language of Paul, commend
the bereaved parents to God and the
word of his grace, which, is able to
build them up, and give an inheri-
lance among all them which are
sanctifed.
Dear brother and sister, grieve not
for little Madeline for Jesus died to
save the pure and spotless, such as
she was, and assures US that of such
is the kingdom of heaven.
Your darling babe is at rest, she is
in the bright and beautiful home of
the soul, beyond the trials, troubles
and disappointments of this life. She
will never have to go through troub-
les, or suffer the pangs of a broken
heart as you have. This should slim.
ulate you to bear your disappointment
and to turn to the words of Jesus for
comfort and consolation, and to give
your life to him who has become the
author of salvation to those who obey
him. And after life spent in his
service, you will be admitted to that
glorious home above where there is
no sorrow, no trials, no disappoint-
ments, where God shall wipe away all
tears with his own hand, and all the
faithful in Christ Jesus shall forever
bask in the sunny chimes of Gods
eternal love. Your brother,
II. II. MONTGOMERY.

The rank and file of the Democracy

Everybody, of course, is in favor of

that sort OF things, and the Demo

time will take hold of the matter and
bring about such reforms as may be
needed. The Times does not belong,

ocratic party in the approaching

Though a good many people seem
to have lost sight of it calm dis
passionate view of it's record, as
compared with the only party that
can be recognized as an opponent,
shows that the Democratic party is
worth saving. If we will recall the
Reed Congress with it's enormous
pension payments which have fas-
tened upon US burden largely the
cause of all our troubles, it's high
tariff with it's blighting influence
upon agriculture, manufactures and
trade, its force bill calculated to up
set and imperil social conditions and
safe government in the South; if We
but consider these things, we may
conclude that we can be better en-
ployed than by clutching at one
anothers threats in the rank, and
often intolerant, discussion of the
currency question. Let US be more
tolerant and stand together to meet
the political enemy of the people,
aud that is the Republican party.
