DUTY OF THE HOUR.

The action of the Philadelphia
manufacturers makes it clear that the
self-appointed and place-seeking
leaders of the Republican party, the
men who will control the St. Louis
convention, will be permitted to
make the platform of that party
declare for the gold standard or for
ii cowardly straddle that a mean
nothing but the gold standard, The
democratic party will do no better,
for the president and his allies will
surely control the action of that party
at the Chicago convention. 1t is
not worth while for those republicans
and democrats who believe that BIZ
metallism must be re-established bv
the United States, to longer wait
upon the action of their respective
parties. They must not waste time.
The country can only be saved from
the money-lendcrs, from the dealers
in credit, by the formation of a new
party. 1t should be called the
AMERICAN PARTY. This party stand
ing for American interests: the inter
ests of all engaged in productive
industries; the party of the plain
people; cannot fail to command a
great majority of the vote of the
people; at the election to be held in
November.
1t is therefor, the duty Of those Of
all parties who do not hold principle
subservient to political expediency,
and who put patriotism before parti-
sanship, to come to a common under
standing among each other, unite on
a common policy, join in the promul-
cation Of a definite policy, and unite
and at one organize for political
action. There should be an early
conference Of those men who must
take a leading part in the movement
for freeing the American people
The watchword should be "No for
eign dictation." The new part,
will be the party Of Washington
Jefferson, Jackson and Lincoln
None of them ever knew an alier
policy, all maintained that the advice
of aliens must be rejected.-The
American.

The use of antitoxin in diphtheretic
affections is yet in its experimental
stage, and has not been tested to
that extent necessary to give it
sanction among the conservative class
of physicians. A late report from
the press states that in Portsmouth,
Ohio, a physician, using antitoxin in
a case of diphtheria, injected some
of the serum into a healthy child
when in five minutes the latter was
a corpse. Here is an instance where
the remedy is given in health to pre-
vent sickness, the result being as
suddenly fatal as if morphia or
strychnia were the agent used.
1t is but natural to expect strange
results from the use of Il remedy so
new, and the above terrible accident
proves the premise. The death GER
%tificate states that the child died
of paralysis of the heart.
While apparently much good is
being done by the use of antitoxin
the prediction may be safely made
that within a very few years the
remedy may be reIegated to that
haven of rest where Koch's lymph
was recently laid away.

The HERALD favors the candidacy
of II. b. Mitchell for state senator.
subject to the vote of the people
this coming fall. He deserves this
honor for his dauntless courage and
the fact that he doesn't seem to know
when the democratic party is dead.
There are many reasons why Mr..
Mitchell should be a candidate in the
county election, and we should re-
Jolce when his party tenders him the
honors of nominations. For Mr..
Mitchell has labored with and for the
party without receiving any reward.
Another democrat who merits
honor at the hands of his party is the
Hon r. n. Sutherlin of White
Sulphur Springs. Here is a mar Of
recognized ability and public worth
against whom it is impossible tc
speak n word of reproach. Addeo
to this we remark that four wears
ago his elder brother was honoreC
by party, and the HERALD would like
to see r. n. get the same meritec
recognition.

Senator Carter, of Montana, is one
of the really prominent men of the
nation. He was pretty we'll known
before his recent speech, but that
splendid achievement made it impos-
sible for any one not to know and
admire him. Concerning his status
as a public character, a Washington
correspondent says:
"Another western state has sent a
new senator to congress who made a
great hit at this session. This is
Senator Carter of Montana. The
speech of the Montana %silverite
against the position his eastern assoc
ciates took on the silver question and
the tariff bill was one of the most
remarkable made in the upper branch
at this session, There were very few
people who agreed with Mr.. Carter,
but every senator remained in his
seat from the moment Mr.. Carter
arose until he closed. His speech
was a set one, some of it being read
from manuscript, but he afterward
displayed a great deal of readiness in
debate and at once became a man
that some of the sharpest and best
debaters in the east decided it would
not always be safe to cross swords

The demure democracy of Mon
tana hesitates to call a state couven-
ton, until it is even questioned
whether the state will be represented
at Chicago. 1t is a ridiculous situa-
ton and all the n~onsensical twaddle
regarding the prospects Of silver in
the Chicago convention is like the
harangue of the local endman in a
troupe of barn stormers.

His Anability Toward the Man Who Had
Come to Hang Him.

His Ahability Toward the Man who Had
Come to Hang Him.
j. K. Chambers, Union depot tick
ct agent, when in a reminiscent
mood, can tell many interesting
stories of the west in early days.
He was in the service of the gov
eminent at Sydney when that town
was the toughest place in Nebraska,
if not in the west, and whence per-
sons bound for the Black Hills
started.
A few days ago Mr.. Chambers was
sitting in the Milwaukee city Office,
and the conversation turned to early
days in the transmissouri country
and bravery.
THE man of iron nerve I saw in
Sydney in 1877" said Mr.. Chambers,
was a beardless man, scarcely more
than a boy, and 1 should judge had
not reached his majority.
He was a tough nan even in Sgd
ney, and his reputation was sustain
ed. for he always carried a revolver
and he would shoot at the drop of
the hat. His name was Dough Reed.
ut was said around town that he
would never die a natural death.
THAT turned out to be true, as he
was lynched by a mob one morning,
and that is where he displayed his
nerve.
1.-THE lynchers took the keys and
unlocked the doors and went into
the cell where Reed was.
He was smoking a cigar when the
men came in, and when he saw them
he looked up as cool as you please.
"'Good evening, gentlemen. I
suppose you are going to take me
out and hang me-, he said as non-
chalantly as though he was asking
them to take a drink.
HE was told that he was correct
in his supposition.
He got up as unconcernedly as
you please, and putting OH his coat
remarked that he was all ready if
the rest were
He walked through the Jail and
out into the moonlight, smoking his
cigar and even making little rings
Of smoke.
HE simply glanced up at the
moon, and turning to one Of the
men asked him where he was going
to be swung off, saying that it was
of no use walking a man a mile or 50
out into the country.
HE was marched up the street to
a telegraph pole that stood in the
very heart of the town.
by this time half the townspeo-
pie were around.
"A rope had been brought along,
and it was slipped over his head, and
he was bound.
"'I can't climb that pole and fall
off. I ought to have a ladder so as
I can get up he said, and accord
ingly a ladder was brought and
placed against the pole. He was
oSAOu i L Tx LOU an t11lIlS W say anu
remarked that he hadn't, and if he
had ne wouldn't.
when the ladder was placed
against the pole, one of the men
started up to tie n end of the rope
about the pole.
"'You needn't do that he said,
for if you will unwind these cords
about my wrists I'll do it,
"The cords were unwound, and he
climbed up the pole as far as the
ladder reached and fastened the rope
around the pole.
when he had done this he look
ed around over the crowd, standing
very quietly then, and called out:
"'Goodby, boys!'
with that he jumped off the lad
der, and in a few minutes his lifeless
body was swinging there.
His nerve never forsook him
once. He acted through it all just
as though he was used to it. He
was the nerviest man I ever met. "

The city council at its Tuesday
night meeting transacted some very
important business relative to the
sanitary conditions of the town. A

imperative command was given,
especially to the democratic portion
of the populace, to disinfect their
