l notice in late issue of The
OUTLOOK that there are fears that
Charles Crisp will lead the Demo
cratic party over into the Populist
camp. Lose no sleep on that if you
are Democrat on principle, for
there is more Jefferson and Jack
son Democracy to the square
inch in the Peoples party plat
form on finance than there is
in a mile square of the present So
called Democracy. What does
Jackson say2 What does Jefferson
say? What do Lincoln, Calhoun
and Franklin say2 They all de-
nounce the present financial sys-
TEN. What do the times themselves
say? There is something wrong.
Who is responsible9 Who has
held the keys to the present condi-
tons? There is cause. 1t is
not in shortno SIS of crops. 1t is
not in carrying on foreign war
1t is not in the idleness of the peo-
pie. They work as well as ever
when they can get anything for it
and with all these advantages the
nation and the people are getting
hopelessly in debt.
1t would be difficult for oul
corpt. to crowd more misinforma
ton on and miacohception of The
financial issue in the same space
as the foregoing. The causes Of
the hard times are people spending
more than they make, the late spec
ulative mania and frantic hurry t.
get rich, the Republican tariff, pen
sion and other extravagances, and
particularly, the threat of silver
ism.-ED.

The Wa-Iinrten correspondent
Of The Philade.V Times quotes
Se.a.or Plackbas as follows:
"Ihavc no doubt h IT Senator Cam
eroa viii be nominated for the Pres
idency Oy the silver Republicans,
and / belieye that he will also be
nominated by the Democrat-Repub-
lfcans. IT, are is no authority for the
use Of ny rIme with that of Senator
Camerpn ur = Presidential ticket.
NeveFth -les-, will frankly say that
the is - msn I would rather see
In the Whit House than Don Cam
eron. have asN~ found him to
be honorabi. ana upright with his
friends, regs -&less Of their political
Affiliations, and / see no reason why
his Presidential aspirations should
not be fostered and encouraged by
the silver men of all parties.
Il know that he rs popular with
the Democrats and Populists in Con-
gress, and L believe that his constant
adherence to the theory of protec-
ton would bring him thousands of
Republican votes, no matter on what
ticket or on how many tickets he
may be nominated. There has been
no conference or consultation con-
corning the use of my name for the
Vice-Presidency but lido not believe
that / would decline TO be a running
mate with so good man and so true
q friend as Don Cameron
This is certainly candid talk
from Senator Blackburn, and it
will be interesting to note how his
silver friends in the Democratic
party will relish the idea of Don
Cameron for President, even when
sugar-coated with Joe Blackburn
for Vice President.
Cameron and Blackburn, the
puritan and the cavalier, the mil
lionaire and the poor man, the
taciturn and the talkative, the pro-
tectionist and free trader, the bit
ter radical and bitter rebel. This
Unique ticket ought to catch the
pte;s ''a-comin' and a-gwine" and
,ee tribute to the gayety of ma
tons.
But In what way can such a
ticket contribute to the success of
the Democratic party?

One of the saddest things that
ever happened in this part took
place Friday night about IL o'clock
Mrs. Jennie Abbott, wife of Alex
Abbott, committed suicide by tax
strychnine. The particulars are
about as follows: There had been
considerable family trouble be-
tween her and her husband for
some time. jealousy was the cause
Abbott is a very reckless man and
hasn't treated her right for som,
time. Abbott has been too init
mate with his wife's sister, a Cir
of about fifteen. Mrs. Abbott wa;
perfect lady in every respect
This is too bad. The people her,
are terribly enraged over it.
Since the above was written the
writer has more particulars of tn,
affair. Mrs. Abbott took a dosC
about IL o'clock Friday night, anG
it seems that she took too much, a.
she vomited it up. She went i'm
mediately after she took it to Lab,
Carey's, about two hundred yard
distant, and walked them up ant
told them not to blame her hus
band for it; but the poison did no
prove fatal. Next morning Will,
her husband was out feeding sh,
took the second desc and went tC
the door and called her husband
She died in about twenty minutes
She was conscious till the last. Sh,
said she was not sorry, for no per
son knew the trouble she had seer
for the past few months. She toll
her husband to raise her two littl,
children up right. This seems t,
be the most singular thing thai
ever happened. There is some
thing behind that has not come t.
the light yet. Abbott left TIN
house just after she died, and new
er came back. Trouble is looked
for before it is over.

Although mention was made in
your last weeks issue of the death
of Mrs. =. II. Stone, / will ask this
space in your columns for trib-
ute to her memory from one who
has had the pleasure of knowing
her. When / first came to Bethel
it was my good fortune to tempo
rarily make my home with this
family and being thus situated l
was enabled TO see her in her true
character. To know her was but
to admire her for her many Chris
tian traits of character. Being by
nature of quiet, unassuming dis
position, she won friends more by
her own intrinsic worth than by
mere meaningless words. deception
being no part of her disposition.
A kind, tender, loving mother, her
/ home was her hearts paradise, her
family her pride, and nothing that
she could do to minister to their
wants was left undone, and imam
N.Y." as the little boys affectiC nate
ly called her, will be sadly missed
by them all, for her whole hearts
desire seemed to be to render home
pleasant and agreeable. But God
in his wisdom has seen fit to remove
her in the very prime of her useful
life, still there is the sweet conso-
lation that in the home beyond the
sky there is no parting or separa-
ton and that sho waits on the
golden shore to welcome those
loved ones she has left behind.
