A Prediction.
We make this prediction which
you may paste in your hat. When
the brokers and bankers of Wall
and Lombard streets, and their SER
vile political followers, become con-
WINGED that their lies and misrepre-
sensations and scurrilous abuse fail
of the intention to check the pro-
cession, which is marching steadily
on and increasing in numbers daily,
in honor of free coinage of silver
and sound currency, they will in
devilish desperation institute anoth-
er panic, similar to that of 1898,
started to scare the people and to
force the repeal of the purchasing
clause of the Sherman thereby
killing siIver-to produce constern-
alton and prevent the will of the

The toot- horns of the Republican
party in this county arc as silent

The end of the war between China
and Japan is likely to cause some
trouble between other European
powers. Japan, it is thought, viii
ask the advice of the United States

The Democratic party is practi

Farmers should keep posted on
the wool market, and not be in too
big hurry 10 dispose of their clip.
Remember there is 10 competition

A man who lives right and is
right, has more power in his silence

Character is like bells which ring
out sweet music and which when
