IT seems that the couch of Col. G.
Il. Simonton, as u. s. District At
torney for West Tennessee, is not to
be a bed of roses after all. The
senate has refused to confirm Josiah's
appointment.
And no doubt the Browns
vile Tribune, from which
the above is copied, and all
of its ilk are rejoicing. go
siah'' made no appointment;
he had no authority to make
appointment. He simply
recommended, by request,
and upon the endorsement of
a large majority of the law
yers and prominent men of
the district. The Tribune's
criticism is beneath the level
of dignified journalism.

having removed from US our below

HARVEY, the author of "Coin'e
Financial School," returned to Chi
cago on Dec. 18th, after a cam.
paign tour of the South. On the
night of the 18th, in the "Windy
City," he addressed a meeting OF
populites at the headquarters of the
Peoples Omaha Club. Harvey is
attempting to organize a new party
to be called the "Patriots of Amer
ica." For some time past, he has
been distributing circular letters
throughout the country, asking fol-
the names of men in each county with
whom he desires to communicate.
He states in his letter that he does
not desire the name of any partisan
who is likely to follow the lead OF
his party on the financial question,
but 81 desire the names of those
who would bolt their party in case
it declared in favor of the present
financial policy of the government. >
Harvey says that the ''Patriots oil
America" will be secret order,
and its ritual will be elaborate, Sim.
posing the most solemn obligations
upon its members for the purpose OF
forcing distinctly political issue. y
Now, this same Harvey, who is pa
rading over the country, attempt.
ing to organize a secret, political,
oath-bound organization, was re.
Gently brought to Nashville by some
of the free silverites to teach the
people of Tennessee the true princi-
pies of democracy. The BULLETIN
takes pleasure in informing its read
ers, however, that Harvey's visit to
Nashville was not induced or sane.
toned by the democratic party, and
it was failure, so far as gaining new
recruits for his secret society is con,
cerned. Harvey is an enemy to
democracy. Democrats do not affil-
ate with secret political societies.
They are true to the principles of
their party and are not ashamed to
let their actions be made public.
Harvey and his gang may have some
following in Tennessee, but it is
not democratic following.

The humorous side of the finan-
cial discussion is the part taken by
the journalists, whose reputation as
financiers is such as would cause
their children to shudder if they
knew that they would be COM
PEELED to follow through life in the
footsteps of the woeful failures who
are now engaged in writing concern
ing a question that their lives have
proven them to be not familiar even
with the first principles. 1t is not
surprising that such a character is
unable to realize that there is a diff
ference between system and princi-
pie, or the standard and the laws of
government, and because of this
fact assert when the gold reserve is
being depleted that the so-called
sound money policy is farsical. If
1000, 600 dollars were drawn from
the gold reserve fund weekly, it
would not prove that the principles
maintained by the gold standard adj
vocates are wrong. Standard and
principle are not synonymous terms
nor of kindred Specification, there
fore it does not follow that in order
to favor gold as the standard, it is
necessary to indorse the present
laws governing the currency. This
law is republican legislation, but
the standard is the same that re-
suited from the law of 1884, which
over valued gold and under valued
silver. The cause of the depletion
of the reserve is not because of gold
being the standard, but on account
of the defective laws, therefore in
order to stop the evil there must be
a removal of the cause. As it has
been proven time and again that
neither the gold nor the silver do liar
will circulate when both are coin
ed free, unless the value of each is
kept equal, it is evident that
the l6 to policy would drive out
gold altogether instead of increas-
ing its volume. The instruments
by which the gold reserve is dimin-
ished is greenbacks and treasury
notes, therefore the recommends
tions of the President and Secretary
that the demand notes be
is feasible. Such a policy |
would undoubtedly be striking at
the root of the evil. The purpose
for which the greenbacks were is
sued is now a thing of the past,
hence should be suPplanted by a
currency that will not debase or
the circulating medium.

UPoN the suggestion of Senator
Harris, the confirmation of Hon. G.
Ii. Simonton. as District Attorney
for West Tennessee, has been held
up. 1t will be remembered that
upon the death of the lamented

successor. AT the request of large

Patterson recommended Capt. ST.
monitor and he was appointed. At
the time of the appointment, it was
stated that Senator Harris would
fight the confirmation in the Senate,
because his wishes were not consul
ted, and now it has come to pass.
This action Of Harris shows a mar
row, bitter spirit of bossism. 1t is
to be regretted that the evening of
Harris life should be clouded by
petty, spiteful acts. His days of
usefulness are over.
