Cause of Present Ways.

There are some features of the gold
campaign that the workingmen and
wage earners are justified in subj citing
to very critical examination.
How does it happen for instance, that
in 1896, of all years, those employ ers
who have been 80 busily engaged in cut
ting down wages aud reducing expenses
during the last four years should now
be so solicitous in regard to the wages
of their workingmen? From what
source does this unprecedented display
of sympathy flow?
How does it happen that the members
of the gold syndicate and the interna-
tional bankers who have their head
quarters in Wall street have suddenly
become 80 anxious in regard to the
wages OF workingmen? The railways
and corporate interests Financed" by
these men have been engaged during
the last three years in discharging en-
ployes and cutting down wages right and
left II the money power OF working

gate loss OF wages to the railroad men OF
this country alone is admitted by the
New York Herald to have been more
than $40, 900, 600 during the past three
years. Does this result show that the
men are opposing the free coinage OF
silver have any rial sympathy for the
w)rkiDgmen
Why, then, this sudden display Of in
terrst in the workiDgmen and their
wsgesP The answer is very simple.
The railways are in the hands Of the
gold syndicate. Every manufacturing

didates.
Consequently, when the money power
pulls the string, the employers of work
ingmen respond by shedding crocodile
tears over the prospect OF low wages for
the laboring men wien free coinage is
restored.
But what the toilers know is OF more
importance than what they are told by
those who have a selfish interest in
maintaining the gold standard. They
know what their present condition is

does not intend to draw the color line or
have official knowledge OF any such line
in this campaign.
As a consequence there must be re-
adjustment of affairs in louisiana in
which all the Republican elements can
get together and apportion electors or
else the national committee will over
look the state organization.
The oily whites" naturally figured on
getting the recognition of the national
committee and placed ticket in the
field which had on it no colored electors.
1t was also figured that this ticket would
get the support Of the sugar men, and in
fact, be the regular Republican ticket in
the state. But Chairman Hanna has
spoiled the plan.

voters will be given representation on
the ticket and fusion between the allied

and Populists is likely or else the nation

made it understood in the southern

not be Disseminated against or that at
least any ticket that does discriminate
will not be recognized by the national
committee as regular.-Atlanta Constitu-

He Thinks the November Returns
VIII show "a Change.

Bath, Me-, Sept. 15.-Mr. Sewal re-
ceived the returns in the library of his
home in this city. Just before he re-
tired last night he said
"Powers (the Republican candidate
for governor) will have about 10000
majority. l think we have gained in
the country and that revised returns
will reduce the Republican majority.
at is apparen', however, that the
Republicans have brocght out their en-
tire vote all over the state.
This is the first important discharge
of ammunition from the money power
against the producers OF the country.
The Republicans have spent more mon
ey in Maine this election than they
have ever spent before. But we have
accomplished great deal.
"Ninety days ago we did not have 5000
silver men in Maine. To-day 10000 or
$4,000 citizens voted for free silver this
brief time. Mr.. Manley has given out
low estimate of the majority he ex-
pected to increase the moral effects of
to-day's figure. The result, however,
will be different from that which the
Republican expected. 1t will simply
stimulate the Democrats all over the
country to fight harder for the victory in
November. We have an experience Of
that kind ourselves in 1880. In that
year we carried the state in September
and the Republicans carried in Novem-
Der. That is the most significant thing
can see in this election. Money has
played an important part in the work
how much lam not able to say, but the
Republicans have had magnificent
organization and an immense fund.
81 see no Encouragement in the result.
We should go on converting thousands to
our side, and il We make as much pro-
gress in the next six weeks as we have
since the Chicago convention, the result
may surprise some people"
Mr.. Sewall's son, who went over to
the Republicans few months ago, did
not vote to day, bling paired with a
Democrat.

RED HOT IN WISCONSIN.
The Republicans Getting Afraid Over
the Probable Result.

'The battle is red hot in Wisconsin
and the result is in doubt, although the
sound money men declare that McKin-
ley will win easily" said Mr.. Il. @.
Hines OF that state TO a Washington Post
reporter.
In reality the Republicans are very
much afraid that Mckinley will not win,
aud they admit privately that Bryan has
an enormous following. The recent con-
vention Of the Republican League Clubs
in Milwaukee, was a perfect failure.
Preparations had been made for enter
tanning a tremendous crowd OF delegates
and visitors. Fireworks had been pur-
chased to the value OF 81 500 by the To-
cal comittee, and everything was in read
mess for big display. Well the num-

With knowledge OF these assurances
the people have received these coins and
have relied confidently upon the good
faith of their Government, and the con-
fdence thus inspired has been most
potent factor in the maintenance Of the
parity. The public has been satisfied
that, so long as our present monetary
system is preserved, the Government
will do whatever its moral obligations
and express declarations require it to do,
and very largely as conse quence OF this
confidence in the good faith of the exec
utive authority, the silver coins have not
deprecated in value. 1t is not doubted
that whatever can be lawfully done to
maintain equality in the exchangeable
value Of the two metals will be done
whenever it becomes necessary, and, al
though silver dollars and silver certi6-
Gates have not up to the present time
been received in exchange for gold, yet
il the time shall ever come when the par
ity can not be maintained, such ex-
changes will be ma lie.
1t is the duty of the Secretary OF the
Treasury aud of other public officials to
execute in good faith the policy declared
by Congress and whenever he shall be
satisfied that the silver dollar can not be
kept equal in purchasing power with the
gold dollar except by receiving it in ex-
change for the gold dollar, when such
exchange is demanded, it will be his du-
ty to adopt that course. But il our pres
ent policy is adheared to and the coinage
is kept within reasonable limits, the
means heretofore employed for the main
tenance of the parity will doubtless be
found sufficient in the future and our
silver dollars and the silver certificates
will continue to circulate at par with
gold, thus enabling the people to use
both metals instead of one only as would
be the case il the parity was destroyed
by free coinage.
Yours truly,

OTHER POLITICAL NEWS NOTES.

Chicago, ILL.,, Sept. 15.-With great
secrecy, but great energy, the Demo-
cratic state committee has been max
ing a canvass of Illinois. 1t is about
completed up to date, and the result
has astonished the most sanguine Of the
Chicago Democrats to whom the facts
have been confded. The committee
has confdentially informed Chicago
leaders that conservative estimate bas-
ed on actual lists OF names assures a
Democratic majority of 10000 outside of
Cook county aud $4,000 in Cook county
$4,000 on the total vote.
The lists of names include all former
Republicans who have joined Bryan and
Sewall clubs or have i'll other ways de-
clared their intention to vote for silver,
and all Democrats who have bolted or
suspected of any intention to vote the
boiling ticket. The $1,000 majority is
the net result of comparing the two lists.
In confirmation of the Democratic
estimates, number OF Republican adj
missions are making things look blue
for Mckinley and black for John r.
Tanner. It's absolutely certain that
prominent Republican leader from
Southern Illinois said emphatically last
week that Tanner was already badly beat
en- and the Republican electoral ticket in
danger. He said that the Republican
campaign managers privately conceded
Tanners defeat. but hoped to pull the
electoral ticket through, on the SUPPOSE
ton that Altgeld's personal strength in
Chicago considerably exceeds the
strength of the national Democratic
ticket.

The coming session of the annual con-
ference of the Methodist Episcopal
church, South at Hopkinsville, begin
ming September %, promises to be of
more than ordinary interest. Aside from
the interest that ever attaches to the
placing of respective preachers, with the
preliminary getting together of funds,
so as to make the best showing possible,
as well as to close the books, which at
such times makes Methodist stewards
the busiest men in the community, and
in addition to the planning for the COM
ing years work along all lines, this year
is the jubilee year Of Methodist in the
Green River country, the first session
having been held at Hopkinsville Just
fifty years ago. OF all the sturdy pioneers
who constituted that early body of ag-
mains-Rev. j. $. Scobee-and is to have
the post OF honor, preaching the jubilee
sermon. In fact all the exercises out
side of the ordinary routine of business
is to partake of a jubilee occasion. A
specially prepared program will be fol-
lowed. DR.. q. w. Briggs has been select
ed to make the address on the Super
annuate Preachers, Widows and Or
phans' Fund" in connection with DIR.
j. A. Lewis, of Louisville. All these
special exercises are to be held at the
tabernacle, and large delegation from
Greensboro will go over on Friday, to be
present when DIR. Briggs makes his adj
dress.
The session OF the conference will be
presided over by Bishop A. W. Wilson,
of Baltimore, a great preacher, as we'll al
great scholar, and an able, impartial
president. He is one OF the most gifted
men in the whole college of bishops.
A sad feature of this assembly will be
the recollection OF the departed and
much beloved Bishop Atticus Haygood,
who since the last meeting OF the annual
conference, has been called TO his ac-
count. He had especially endeared
himself to Kentucky aud Greensboro,
haying studied the situation here, and
feeling that this point was an important
one in its influence, not only locally, but
in the entire section, and the selection
OF his friend and comrade in many a
hard taught campaign, DIR. q. w. Briggs,
was out Of regard for the importance o.
the work here as 1t appeared to him
1t was in pursuance OF this settled pur-
pose on the part of the sainted bishop
that DIR. Briggs has felt himself impel,-
ed to meet appointments throughout the
Green River country while fully recog-
nizing the demands Of his home work,
in order that where struggling churches
need help, efficient help might be rem
dered. In view OF this as well as the
universally expressed desire OF his
church and congregation for his return
it is highly important that DIR. Briggs be
returned 10 his present charge.
Col. G. A. Park is one OF the district
delegates, and will represent Settle

as especially important, as 1t will doubt
