The anti-silver men speak very
lightly of the new party, which
they declare to be nothing more
than an attempt to boom the
presidential candidacy of Sena-
tor Cameron. At the headquar-
ters of the new party the claim
is made that it will at once alb
sorb the Populist party and that
enough silver Republicans and
Democrats will join it before the
next national election to ensure
the election of a president. N.

An Editors Thoughts.
An editor In a pensive mood felt the
following flowing through his thoughts
sleeve and cau2 ht it for his readers:
Take walk with US through any of
the cemeteries OF the country and you
Will believe fools are passing away.
You pass the last resting place of the
man who blew in an empty gun, and the
tombstone OF man who lighted fire
with kerosene. a grass carpeted mound
covers the man who took the mule by
the tail. The monument Of the man
who didn't know 1t was loaded over
shadows his who jumped from the train
to save ten-yard walk.
SIDE by side lie the aesthetic creature
who kept her corset laced to the last
hole and the intelligent idiot who rode
. bicycle nine miles in ten minutes.
Here repose the doctor who took q dose
OF his own medicine and the old fool
who married young wife. Right over
yonder in the southwest corner tho
breezes sigh through the weeping
willows that bend over the lowly bs d Of
the fellow who called his wife's mother
q liar.
Down there in the potter's field, with
his feet sticking out to the cold blasts
OF winter and the blistering rays of the
summer sun, are stretched the rem aims
OF misguided regulator who tried to
whip the editor, while the broken
bones of the man who refused to paw
for his paper are piled in the corner
OF the feEce. Over by the gate
softly rests the boy who went swim
ming on Sunday and the old woman
who kept strychpine with the bak.
ing powder in the cupboard. The fool
killer gathers them in one by one, and
by and by we would have pretty de-
cent world to live in were it not that
the race continues to produce the same
kind of idiots.

TILLMAN AND ST. JOHN.
Animated Debate on the Question
of Prohibition.

NEW YORK. Aug. 9.-A large crowd
filled the auditorium at Prohibition park
a Port Richmond tonight to listen to the
debate on Prohibition by Ex-Governor
John 2. st. john, of Kansas. who spoke
for the system and United States Senator
b. T. Tillman, of South Carolina, who OPP
posed it. Ex-Governor st. John declared
that the diSpeuSarY system was not III
accord with the laws of the state and was
an evil South Carolina had laws, he
said, prohibiting crimes the same as those
of other states, and he had not understood
liquor, which WAS also a crime. The
speaker compared Kansas with South
Carolina, showing that Kansas had within
the past ten years exceeded that state in
wealth and claimed that this was largely
due to prohibition.
Senator Tillman said that such a com
parison was unjust. Kansas had many
more miles OF territory than South Caro-
lima, and that by reason of her en-
terprises she had great ad-
vantage. The state, he said, today was
paying $200O,OO0 annually toward the pen-
sion of soldiers VINO assisted in the war
against the confederacy. He cla.n:ed
however, that South Carolina was pros
porous and the people happy and that
within a few years she would be on an
equal footing with Kansas. He spoke at
length on the benefits of the dispensary
system. He said there was no doubt that
within the next few years the prohibition
lists would abandon their prohihitory law
and come out in favor of the dispensary
system.
The jury gave vote by IL TO in favor
of Senator Tillman.

Views AbOut Them.

Views About Them.
NEW YORK, Aug. 9.-The Rev. John
Anderson. attached to the China In
land mission. in West China, is here on
his way back to mission work The
China Inland society, having its head
quarters London, has about 500 work.
ers in China. 1t Is unsectarian. Dr.
Anderson said today:
MY cable advice from Cheng Tu,
capital of the province of Sechuen, in
Western China, are that all but one
of the 100 or more missionaries Of the
various societies have been driven
down the Yang Use Kiang. The trouble
must have been sudden. At Cheng Tu,
belonging to our mission, were Mr..
and Mrs. Granger and family, Mrs.
Cormuck, Miss Hols and Mrs. Riley
and a Scotchman named Vail, the
only missionary now remaining in that
region. At Yah Choo, we had no peo-
pie, but American Baptists were rep.
resented there.
At Choon King. on the Yang-tse
Kiang, in the same province, there are
four misSionS-ourS, the MethodistS.
the London missions, the French and
Scotch Bible society. The place has
about 500, 900 inhabitants and has a
British vice-consul Our people there
are Mr. and Mrs. Willet. 1 do not
know what has become of those who
have fed from Cheng Tu. They are
probably seeking points of safety along
the river
