SHELLEY AND SILVER.

This Office is in receipt of the ad
dress of the American Bimetallic par
ty. That our readers may know what
the demands of the new party are We
re produce the platform in full:
The money question is now indis-
putably the dominant issue in the
United States, and will remain so un.
til settled and settled rightly. Other
questions, however important, must
wait for this, which, to q greater OF
less eCtent, involves all others.
THE ISSUE
is between the gold standard, gold
bonds and bank currency, on the one
side, and the bimeLallic standard, nc
bonds and government currency, on
the other.
First. On this issue we declare
ourselves to be unalterably opposed
to the gold standard, and demand the
immediate return to the constitutional
standard Cs gold and silver by the res,
toration by this government indepen-
IDENTIFY OF any foreign power, of the un-
lCobl lObON COludbO VI uUlu BOlu anu Sll-
yer into standard money, at the ratio
Of l6 to 1, and upon terms of exact
equality; the silver coin to be full
legal tender, equally with gold, for all
debts and dues, public aud private.
Second. We hold that the power to
control and regulate paper currency
is inseparable from the power to coin
money; and hence that all currency in
tended to circulate as money should
be issued, and its volume controlled
by the General Government only, and
should be legal tender.
Third. We are unalterably opposed
to the issue by the United States of in
terest- bearing bonds in time of peace.
and demand the payment of all coin
obligations Of the United States, as
provided by existing laws, in either
gold or silver coin, at the option of the
Government, and not at the option of
the creditor.
On this issue we appeal from the
dictatiOn of the money power to the
intelligence and patriotism of the
American people

Some ofthe cOunty.republican papers
over this state remind us very much
Of the old story told about the demo-
Gratis of Arkansas. 1t used to be said
of them that they went to the polls reg
ularly each year and cast their ballots
for jackson, and had not yet learned
that Jaskson is dead and out of poll,
tics. The Kansas republican papers
are still parading in their columns a lot
of stuff about the corruption Of the
populist party, which shows their ignO-
rance on current events. The populist
party has been cleared of all the vile
charges of anarchy and boOdleism, and
the whole crime has been fastened
upon the republican party of the state.
The old gang has been found gu lily of
fraud, drunkenness, anarchy, obtain
ing money under false pretsnses, dis
regard for the law of the land; and dis
respect for the virtue Of the young
ladies of the state. The present state
administration is the most corrupt set
OF political mOntebanks that ever in
tested state house in any state in
this Union. and the republican editors
of Kansas know it.-Barton county

FROM our infancy we were taught
that we lived in a country where the
majority ruled and that was an nm
measurable BLESSING in having that
privilege. but of late years we are be-
ginning to doubt it. Take for instance
the late decision of the supreme court
on the income tax Granting that the
nine judges represented the whole Of
the United States (which they did not

law was held by one man. The same
condition existed when Hayes was

judges we're appointed and there was
no decision, merely the form, for the
man who gave the deciding vote in the
Hayes case, was appointed to that
place to vote as be did. Our mind
while in this channel runs TO another
important decision and that was in the
gen raj conference of great religious
body, when the doctrine of infant
damnation was wiped out of the creed

every silver dollar we have in circula-

 City Editor of the Sunday Herald Dis
 figured For Life.
 Frank B. Steele, city editor of the Sum- by having thrown in his face quantity of vitriol. while on his way from the office in the Lilley block to the postofice. About 6 o'clock Mir Steele left the office. A man who had been standing near a telegraph pole approached him and threw a bottle containing nearly half a pint of acid at him, striking him on the left cheek, the tottle breaking and cutting the flesh and the acid penetrating the flesh and almost driving the man crazy with pain. The perpetrator of the cowardly deed disappeared through the little alley way between the Manufacturers bank and Bronson's block. Mir Steele gave chase but the man escaped. Steele then has tened to the Apothecaries hall, where as- sistance was given until Doctor Good enough arrived, when it was found that his left cheek was badly burned. The vitriol had entered the ear, ran down his necE, over the chest to the abdomen, burn ing it's way ss it went. The liquid burned though the mans coat collar, eat his tle and one side of his hat. He was removed to his home on North Main street suffer- ing intense pain.
 George T. Jackson. clerk at Jones & Morgan's store, saw a man leaning against the telegraph pole who answers the de- scription given of the acid thrower. Mir Steele says his assailant had on a long, rough overcoat and Scotch cap. The bottle. which was found on the sidewalk, was turned over to the police. It's sup posed the man had been watching Steele in his office from the east side of the street and on seeing him get ready to go out, he crossed the street and met him a few feet from the entrance to the build ing. where the opportunity to escape was much better than on the other side.
 Whoever Steele's assailant may be he is no stranger in the town for no one, except man we'll acquainted with the place, would think of escaping through the alley way, for there is not one out of five hun dred men in Waterbury who knows that one can pass to the rear of these build ings through that entrance.
