The democratic party does not seem
to be progressing rapidlyin opening up
those much talked of markets of the

closed her ports to American cattle,
and is said To contemplate similar
course towards American wheat, with

our home market the best market in the

A CALL for free silver meeting was
issued, to be held i'm this village last
evening, for the formation of a local
silver club. 1t is noteworthy fact that
this call bore the signature of the union
otherwise known as democratic) town
ship committee. There is growing
sentiment in this locality in favor of
silver coinage among men of all politi-
cal parties, but there are many who
will not consent to ride a silver horse
into the democratic party, and all re-
publicans will do well to let the move
ment severely alone. A healthy silver
sentiment is developing within the re-
publican party, and that party can be
safely relied upon to make satisfac-
tory solution of the currency question,
and to land us safely upon genuine
bimetallic standard. With Michigan
democrats for free silver, eastern dem
ocrats for a single gold standard, and
gold-bond Cleveland in the presidents
chair, we have a living example of the
fact that the devil and the democratic
rcrty can be relied upon to be all
things to all men, with absolute dishon-
esty and with two-faced efforts to Sc
cure control of men. The record of the
democratic party in the last two years
gives the lie to their professed friend
ship for silver at the present time.
