Constable Ban ham had his
famous blood hound on the

high for them to scent. Don't
think parties let the meat

they may be brought to the
clutches of the law.

From indications the sound

in Memphis on the 23rd, will
be a grand success, and viii
be largely attended by brainy

Every good democrat should
give this matter seriou;
thought before they make a

In 1886 while Dan,l Man.

Falrcnllu, the acLlnS OecreCd-
ry of the Treasury, wrote to
Sam'l J. Tilden for advice in
regard to the silver question,
which at that time was be-
coming more and more per-
picking. The Sage of Grey.
stone" in commenting upon
that vexed question said: at
would be very desirable to
bring both silver and gold
into use as reserves for the
basis of currency and as
means of international ex-
changes, thereby doubling
the quantity of precious met
ais available for those purpO-
ses, but the object cannot be
effected by the United States
alone" 1t will be seen that
the position of Mr.. Tilden
upon the silver question in
1886, is in accord with that
of President Cleveland. AT
that time, the market value
of the bullion contained in a
silver dollar was only about
30 per cent. less than of the
gold dollar. In the letter
referred to, Mr.. Tilden af-
6rmed that the silver certifi-
Gates are kept at par with
gold because they are receiv-
ed and paid out at the Treas
ury as equal to gold coin.
This is the position of a man
who had studied the finan-
cial question and whose judg-
ment concerning that subject
was held in such high repute
that his advice was sought by
Secretary of the Treasury.
1t was he who had been in.
dorsed and elected 10y the de-
mocracy to the highest office
in the gift of the people, but
if he were living to-day, the
Memphis Scimitar asserts
that he would be denounced
by every fat-witted editor as
a tool of Wall Street and a
traitor to the democratic par
ty." He could no more hope
ito escape the vitupel alton OF
such a class than President
Cleveland, whose EXPIRE 7sed
views coincide with those OF
Mr.. Tilden, enunciated nine
years ago. So we see that
both Tilden and Cleveland,
the only ones that have been
elected to the office of Presi-
dent of the United States by
the democratic party since
the war, agreed concerning
the financial question. And,
to say the least of it, it is We
ry strange that the democrat
ic party should commit the
egregious and inexclusable
blundcr of electing to the
highest office in its gift
"tools of Wall street" and
traitors" to the party. If
the democratic party had
been guilty of such an act, it
would be undeserving of
confidence and respect, but
such is not the case. The
trouble is there are thousands
who are at variance with
themselves when compared
with their opinions of a few
years ago. History proves
that in order for both metals
to circulate when both are
coined free that the CONNER
cial value of the bullion con-
tanned IN the silver dollar
must be equal to that in a
gold dollar-a fact known to
both Tilden and Cleveland,
hence their opposition to the
free coinage of silver at Is toll.

At first sight II would seem that Il must
be an unreasonable man who would find
fault with q house because II had one
mora room than was mentioned in the ad-
vertisement; but first sight is not always
the best sight. An estate agent sent a
customer to look at q five-room house.
that being Just the size he professed ia
want. The house proved to be sadly out Of
repair, and the prospective tenant went
back to the agents office.
II didn't want q six-room house." he
said.
THAT isn't six-room house." answered
the agent.
"Yes II is."
"But I say II Is not" and the agent be.

"Yes, but there's the room for improve
ment. and that's bigger than any Of the
