Depreciate neither or woe will follow.
We need both, dollar for dollar on a
parity. Coin both gold and silver every
year but maintain both on a parity and
don't measure our standard by Mexico
either. When the Hon. John G.. sounds
the note for grand rally Of campaign
oratory let us hope the Demosthenes Of
America and Of the gold banner may be
confronted as valiantly by Cicero sail
ing under a silver standard. Can the
two tho bear the inscription, "Democ-
racy," much longer2
Of course 1t is family quarrel but it
sometimes becomes serious and causes
final and permanent separation. Bland
with many others has sought another
mooring. The Republicans are divided
too on finances hut when the time
comes for action and leader
speaks they will all fall into line and
don't you forget it and il you don't
watch, these family feuds will place
Bradley at Frankfort and Harrison, Nc
Kinley or Reed to wave the sceptre at
the White House. This paper Of last
issue calls for expressions on either side.
Come on. Talking is in order and then
do as you please.

THOUGHT 1T AN OMEN.
Finding Of Balloon Brings to Light
Strange Story of Superstition.

On the Sth inst, Mr.. Jas. Haywood,
who lives near Powers, found the rem
nants Of paper balloon on his farm,
accompanied by the following note:
"Please tell me when and wheare and
what time this balloon was found and
send me word. 1t left hear at 20 o. C.
Monday morning Dec. "a, 1894. II. G.
Cans, 1926 Frederick st, Greensboro, KY"
H. q. Cans is the little son of Mrs.
Mary Cans. He sent the balloon up on
Christmas eve. The spelling and figures
are given as they appear and it will he
observed that it leaves one in doubt
about the hour.
A strange story of superstition is told
in connection with the finding of the
balloon. The aerial wanderer was no.
ticed by neighbor of Mr.. Haywood
whose wife had died few days before.
He thought-there was a fire somewhere
in the neighborhood, but on making
inquiry found there had been no fire.
The blaze had appeared to him to hang
in the heavens for long time and then
suddenly die away. The matter preyed
on his mind and he came to believe it
had been an omen or warning. He
brooded over it and finally became i'll.
A few days before the finding of the
note he died, but as long as he was con-
scious he continued to talk about the
strange light and insisted that it had
been warning of his death waited
from the other world by his dead wife.
Think what he might have been spared
il he had only known it was a balloon
sent up by small boy.-Owensboro
Messenger.

Now for what Senator Vest said in re-
gard to the first national bank of New
York City, organized in 1864 with cap
ital stock Of 100000 in 25 years has real
lied net profit OF $lO,OO0,0O0 which is
so per cent. on original 100000 for
twenty-five years. Now remember that
national banks are banks of deposit and
Of discount by both OF which processes
they may make gains very large. Gains
sometimes when they catch fellow in
pinch. Hence the following analogy
from another class Of business. B. F.
Avery about the year Of 1860 organized
in Virginia pillow factory in a log shop
the whole plant being worth perhaps
$3.50, in 1888, same date with the New
York bank. You will observe we find him
on Main street in Louisville occupying a
whole block worth perhaps 100000,
realized in profits from the manufacture
OF plows. Now take the 100000 and
see what per cent. that would be on the
original $3.50. Do you not see that the
gains of the bank are very small compar-
ed by the per cent. of gain on original
capital invested.

would be 100 per cent. but still he does

VOICES FROM CITY PULPITS
Continued from Second Page,)

(Contlnued from Second PageD for peace-sought in the spirit of peace Not leaders-not a press-which jaunt- lily introduce war, or a hint at war; in the first stage of an international discussion!
 Just word in conclusion! If it is true that so far as England is con- cerned this country has had many things to complain of. 1t is true that English foreign policy has been aggres- sive, selfish, and often insolent to the last degree. Ought we, then, to imi- tate her? Ought we tx do the nKe, be- cause 1t is English, you know? No! If such are her ways-the ways of our mother-if she sets the example of in ternational bullying-her daughter, these United States, ought to set the example of international good manners! Without bluster--without the introduc- tion of that terrible word war" or even the hint at it-England's daugh- ter, while insisting firmly upon her own rights, should be magnanimous, gener- ous, courteous, gentle, Christ-like in speech!
 We owe this attitude to ourselves we owe it England, England, in spite of all her faults, I love her we'll From her we received our laws, our customs, our civilization. Wherever her flag floats it means, liberty, freedom, Chris tianity. Even to mention the word war" in connection with her seems ito me sin. God forbid it. And God grant that mother and daughter may go down the path of history-hand in hand -heart to heart-for the benefit of civ- ilization and of Christ.

The opening sentences of Dr. T. T. Munger's sermon in the United church yesterday morning had unmistakable reference to current conditions in the nation. Delivered with special and inn pressiye emphasis they fixed the atten- ton of the large audience. He said.
 Two great anniversaries claim our attention to-day. Yesterday was the anniversary of the landing of the Pill grim fathers in Plymouth 275 years ago On Wednesday we shall commemorate the uncertain date of the birth of Jesus Christ, and we shall remember it with special gratitude because it will remind us as Christian nation that we are pledged b the truth which natural science and social science are laying at the feet of Christianity, namely, that peace on earth and good will to men," is the fundamental purpose that should animate the nation in all its move msnts: and that any other spirit is treachery to our principles until the direct necessity forces it into our un- willing hearts"
 The sermon was chiefly devoted to the Pilgrims and their work.
