Why Silver is Being Boycotted.

The standard is of opinion that the matter of demonetizing silver that deep laid scheme of the veal thy few of the world to destsoy one half of the earth's entire mon- ey. embodies in different form, the purpose of making the rich richer and the poor poorer; and there is in the project the same old fight of capital against labor of money against muscle.
 Every one knows that silver is distinctively the money of the poor; and destruction of it's qual- ities as such money, it seems quite clear to us would on the one hand benefit the wealthy by rendering money much scarcer and conse- quently dearer, and on the other hand, would be ruinous to the

case was hopeless and further treat ment useless. Ut is difficult to i'm agine how Respondent we all became" said MT. Crausby, knowing that she must die and unable to give her any relief. I had spent over five hundred dollars with the best medical skill to be had, and felt that there was no further hope.
 "One day happened to read an ad- vertisement of 8. s. s., recommending that remedy for cancer, and In view of the failure of the most eminent physi- clans in the country, confess l had little faith left in any human agency. However, purchased a bottle of S.S.S., and to my delight 1t seemed to benefit her. After she had taken a couple of bottles the cancer began 10 heal, and astonishing as 1t may seem, a few bot ties more cured her entirely. You can probably better understand how re- inarkabie this cure was when l explain that the cancer had eaten two holes In the breast two inches deep. These healed up entirely, and although ten years have elapsed, not a sign of the disease has ever returned, and we are assured of the permanence of the cure, which we at first doubted.
 "As my wife inherited the cancer, I certainly regard s. s. $. as the most wonderful remedy in the world, and 1t Is truly a Godsend to those afflicted with this terrible disease. You may be sure that 1 shall always be grateful to that remedy, for without it my home would now be desolate and my chil dren motherless." ;"
 The above Is but one of many re- markable cures being daily made by s. s. s.

struggling. toiling millions.
 To destroy silver AS n money the custom of ages amongst man. kind.
 It would everywhere injure trade and com cree, by hamper ing and restricting it, as it would more or less retard and paralize all industries, while it's disuse as a medium of value would inconven- ience and materially among all per. sons whomsover.
 We think the reasoning utterly falacious, that "the over prod tion of silver" has so cheapened it's value as to make it unworthy of being employed as a money metal. The law fixes it's value, or should do so, backed as it is or would be by universal sanction a, least of the vast maj ority. We be- lieve that on account of it's bulki' ness and weight. the vastly veal thy few, whose moneyed transac tions run far into the millions oi dollars per day, are studiously boycotting and combating it, these having the same feeling to wards the silver coin, one ordina rily has for copper cents, as nc one would care to be paid $500 ol 5000 in copper cents. Again there is an aristocratic air in gilt tering gold which make the rich admire it, as these do the spark ling diamond. To this we do no, object since 1t IS clear that all should have the right and enjoy the privilege of possessing either gold or diamonds, who can afford l 1t, and while we concede this tt the rich, wo demand for the poor that he be permitted to possess th' dollar of the daddies, our conten tion being not that the rich should  not use the yellow metal as money but that the masses be allowed tn, use of the white metal as such al so.

A heardless youth in knee brooches is now said to be the forerunner of the free silverites. He is expected to make a tour ot the country blindtolded and will hold meetings in the political cen ters where he will answer all questions relating to political economy. This is the latest fad of the rcpudationists. It takes the place of the farce comedy which has proved financial failure.- ArkdnSdS Gdsette.
 And SO it has come 10 this. The free silver people-the people who stand up for their rights, their homes. their liberties, their coun. try and the money of the constitu' tion-arc dubbed "repudiation' ists," and that too, by paper that they support, maintain and make it's very existence possible. By a sheet that has. itself repudiated the platform Of it's party in this state forfieted it's claim 10 the respect ot all fair-minded men. We wore prepared to expect almost any thing from the Gdzette, but was scarcely anticipating such whole sale slander of nine-tenths of tho people of Arkansas Let the Old Lady beware, for she may go jus' one step too far. The guns of "re pudiation" may be turned and she herself, be repudiated.

Grover Cleveland, spoke like q sensible man, when be addressed the vast audience of America at the Atlanta Exposition. His ad- vice to tho people in regard to us- ing the Government for the ad- vaneement of personal interests is full of wisdom and well-timed in it's deliveranee. On this subject MT. Cleveland said; We shall walk Tn the path of patriotic duty, if, remembering that our free in stitutions were established 10 pro mote the general welfare, We strive for those things which benefit all our people and each of us is con. tent to receive from common fund his share of the prosperity thus contributed We shall miss our duty and forfeit our heritage if, in narrow selfshness, we are needless of the general welfare and struggle to wrest from Govern mont private advantages which can only be gained at the expense of our fellow country-men.'- .'-.irk. Gazette.
 Never were truer words uttered than those of Mir. Cleveland, quot ed above. But why doesn't this old goldite practice what he breaches? He talks one way and acts another. IL is one thing to talk and another thing to act. Per haps Mr. Cleveland has learned this fact.

Cancer Of the Breast.

Mir. A. H. Crausby is one of the best known and most highly respected citi- zens of Memphis, and resides at 158 Kerr street in that city.
 Some years ago his wife noticed a small lump in her breast. She thought nothing of 1t. but it increased in size rapidly, and soon broke through the skin and commenced to discharge. She was at once put under treatment of the best physicians, but they very soon found that they could do her no good, and simply prescribed antiseptics to keep the place clean. Both her grandmother and aunt, by the way, had died with cancer, and when sp- prised of this fact the doctors said that they would not attempt to save her; that she was incurable. Although the cancer had by this time become deep seated and her health very low, one of the most noted specialists of New York then treated her. After treating her awhile, this doctor admitted that the

Capt. c. c. McDermott, Dead.

The following letter from his son, Mir. ". G. McDermott, brings to us the sad intelligence of the death of our old friend, and former towsman Capt. c. c. McDermott, late of Mobile, Texas. Capt. "Rice" McDermott, as he was better known here, was one of the first settlers in Drew county, coming here away back in the thirties or early forties. He was one of na- ture's noblemen, possessing all the true qualities of good citizen. He was the very soul of courtesy and honor, charitable, accommodating and ever generous. His death though coming at a ripe old age, is sadly deplored by his hundreds of warm friends here. The family of decease have the heartfelt con dolence of the MoNTIcELLoNIAN in their great loss:
 MOBILE, TEXAS, Oct. 23, 1895
 DEAR FRIEND CoTHAM:-It is with sad heart that I write you these few lines. My dear, old father died on the morning of the 18th of Oct. at 2 o'clock. His b health had been, on an average very good, up until a month ago when he was taken with chills and fever. Since then he was never able to be up any more. In the end he was talk en with hemorrhage of the stomach. He called me and said "I am gone,' said he had nc fear of death. He was 63 years old last June.
 Your Friend,

At thls time our country needs religion that will make man pay his debts. Shouting don't t pay an old account with God or man. We want to bounce right on fellow and put him out Of the church if he goes to a ball or thea ter, but never say word to the pious scamp who never pays his debts. Pious people who never pay their debts are doing more harm than dancers or drunkards, tor there are none of these in the church. Readers are we getting pretty close to you? Then lay it down and pay up, and you eau read on at your ease. And don t stop paying because the statute of limitation excuses the open ac- count you made; pay in cash or God will make you pay in fire and birthstone. God knows no such excuse as home exemption, when you raise that excuse to keep from paying your debts stop singing "When l can read my titles clear" You have none np there.-lndica tor.
 The above is pretty tough on the non.debt paying church mem Der, but is no worse than he de. serves. The man who refuses to pay an honest debt, when he can, whether he belongs to church or not, is certainly poor citizen to have in a respectable community,

IN MEMORIAL.

Mrs. Rebecca Rountrec, former ly resident of Ozark, died at her home in Little Rock. at 1 o'clock a. m. on Sunday, October Ii. 1895, in the 64th year of her age.
 Sho was wgs a native of South Carolina, the daughter of Charles and Rebecca Jones, of Jonesville, in that state. Her parents rcmov- ed to Lauderdale county, Tennes- sec, while she was quite young, and she spent most of her life in. Tennessee. Her husband, W. T. Rountree, died in Memphis in 1883. Three children survive her: Ms. E. H. Mathes, of Ozark, and Misses Addie and Lnra Rountree of Little Rock. They were all with her during her last illness, which covered period of several months, and gave lavishly of that tender ministry that only loving hearts and willing hands can be- stow.
 For more than three months she knew she could not survive her ailment. heart disease, and yet she was the most cheerful member of the household, and often testified as to her perfect faith in the chris tian religion, and her readiness to answer the summons. Her relig- ious belief was as simple and stead fast as the faith of a child. She and her husband united with the Baptist church in Tennessee many years ago, and all her after life examplified her faith.
 In all the relations of life she was an examplary character. Dur ing an intimate acquaintance, last ing for more than fifteen years, 1 never knew her to say or do a really unkind or uncharitable thing.
 She was fine type of tbe old time southern lady, and bore her self with characteristic dignity and fortitude through evil as well as through good fortune.
 Many of her newly formed friends and neighbors in the "City of Roses" assisted in the last fun eral rites, and she was laid to rest in quiet spot, under majestic oak, in Mt. Holly cemetery. The following gentlemen acted as pail bearers: Col. John G. Fletcher, Mir A. E. Cook, Gen. W. E. Atkinson Hon. Marcellus l.. Davis, Mir Lesley, G. Meyers, and Gen. R W. Green. Appropriate funeral services were conducted by Doc tors Miller and Hagan of the Pres byterian church, her own pastor being out of the city.
 A noble hearted. pure minded woman, a most loving and gentle mother and grand mother, her loss will fall with peculiar force upon those of her immediate family, who alone could know her real worth
