Hutchinson gazette. [volume] (Hutchinson, Kan.) 1895-1902, 1895-12-05

caused this injunction to be hastily
telegraphed to the deputies by the rail-
road company for execution. "Injunc-
tions to order, by telegraph" is the lat
est form of judicial tyranny.
Here you are. An Associate Press
dispatch just after election says:
Since 1t has been demonstrated
That the Democratic party Is so badly
divided everywhere, especially on the
currency question in the south, Dem
ocratic leaders in Alabama, where the
State campaign, which will eliminate
In the State election next August, is
on the eve Of opening, are seriously
considering the advisability of stop
ping all discussion inside the party of
currency and turning their attention
to reuniting the Democratic party for
the coming contest"
This dispatch was from Alabama,
and referred to a conference held be-
tween Senator's Morgan and Pugh and
other prominent silver Democrats of
the south who have been making
vigorous campaign for free silver. But
like many other pretended silver men
in the party they regard principle as
a subordinate matter.
nanooraflo oiIyar man vo,,ok oiIho,
pull down their signs or get out Of the
party. The wholesale defeat Of the
Democratic party renders all talk of
reform inside the party" useless.
Even If the party were not
divided against itself there would
be no hope Of its carrying
out any measure at all. The
people have lost all confidence in its
professions and would not give It an
other chance though 1t declared by all
the angels in heaven that 1t stood
solidly in favor of free silver and all
other great national reform principles
The gold-bugs of the east prefer the
Republican party, and the true silver
men are thoroughly disguised with
Democracy. The Democratic party
has been driven from the field in con-
fusion. Neither gold-bugs nor silver
men can endorse its vaclllatlng, uncer-
tain, cowardly policy. East, west, north
and south the Democratic party Is a
wreck. One kind of Democrat can
not be distinguished from another in
the general mass Of obliteration. The
very name Democrat has become dis
grace In the eyes Of the people. Come
out from among them, If you wish to
stand up for principle. Do not call
yourself Democrat any longer unless
you wish to take chances Of being
buried alive in the same grave with
the dead.
The prostitute press dispatches and
machine editorial writer's made a great
noise about the Farmers Congress" at
Atlanta declaring against silver. While
1t would not have been surprising for
the farmers by appointment" who
composed that congress to have taken |
such action, the fact Of the matter is
that they did not make any such decla-
ration as was announced by the tele- |
graphic news liars association. The |
following resolution was adopted:
Resolved, That we favor the free and
coinage Of both silver and |
gold at an agreed ratio guarded by an
import duty upon foreign bullion and
foreign coin equal to the difference be-
tween the bullion value and the coinage
value Of the metal at the date Of i'm
whenever the bullion value
Of the metal Is less than its coin value"
It is true that this resolution is almost
absolutely meaningless-bu 1t is not a
declaration in favor Of a single gold
any more than It is a declara,
ton in favor Of anything else.
The misunderstanding between
Chairman Taubeneck and Col. Norton.
appears now to be satisfactorily settled.
Is far as they are concerned. In let
.er to Col. Norton, Mr.. Taubeneck says:
MANY good people have been misled
n not knowing that you had severed
'our connection with the Weekly
Sentinel II is due to the public as
we'll as to you and myself that make
his explanation.
II desire for all to know that here
" retract every unkind, uncompllment-
Try word used against you In this dis
'ussion and also apologize for the
language used and exonorate you from
my unfair or any unmanly dealing.
Hoping that this explanation will,
8 much as possible, undo the in
ustlee done you, remain as ever"
The discussion in which they were
rigiually engaged viii probably be
ontinusd without personalities.
