Our ChIOken-Hesrtsd Governor.

Frankfort, KY, March l7.-In
spite of the Governors declaration
that he does not fear personal vio-
lence, five uniformed guards are on
patrol about the Executive Mansion
The news that the Governors Man.
sion is under guard has cause new in
dignation among the citizens OF
Frankfort. They say there is not a
man in town that would harm a hair
of the Governors head, and he knows
it.
The placing of militiamen to pre-
vent personal violence is regarded as
a new insult. Vehement expressions
are being used in denouncing this
new move.
Adjt. Gen. Collier says that the
presence of the militia about the
Governors mansion is merely the
result of a general order to put the
soldiers on picket duty in all public
places and that he is sure that they
are not there at the request of the
Governor.

He was smart enough, brave enough

The Magic of the Word .Fres."

It is difficult to understand how any considerable portion of the people can be so ignorant of the most vital question now before them as to believe that free" coinage actually means that by some mysterious legerdemain the people are to get something for nothing. And yet it is undoubtedly true that a large number of people who are following the free silver ignis fatuus do so because their imagination has been captlyated by that magic word 'sfree. " The man, therefore, who expects to receive dol lar, whether of gold or silver or paper, must have some product of labor to give ill exchange, and no financial system worthy of it's own respect has ever claimed anything else. Under free coln- age not only must every dollar represent at least an equivalent amount Of laDor' but it will represent twice as much labor and purchase just half as much com modities as at present.

4 New Kind of Turnip.

When the idea that cheaper measure of values will make the country richer once gets hold of man, 1t IS pretty hard to drive 1t out of his mind. It is not so much matter of knowledge or belief as blind faith i'll what some one has told him. Facts and logic are pow erless against delusion, but sometimes an illustration drawn from his own ex- perience is effective.
 Suppose that all the farmers who think that free coinage would benefit them should learn this spring of new turnip seed which was guaranteed to produce roots just twice the size of those now grown, but which would be of such an inferior quality that it would be only half as valuable for feeding stock. The new variety would require more ground for growing, more fertilizers, more labor for cultiyating and pulling and larger cellars for storing But as the food value of the roots would be just the same as a crop of the kind now raised, where would be the advantage of the bigger quantity? Would not the farmer who tried the new kind be poor or to the extent of the extra land and labor used in their production? His cat tie would find that they had to eat two bushels in order to get the same nour- ishment that they got from one bushel of the old kind He could not exchange bushel of them for more than half Of the things that the same quantity Of the better quality would buy. And he would without doubt swear that he would never again waste time and labor on roots which were one-half worthless.
 Money is money. Turnips are turnips. Doubling the quantity of money by cut ting its value i'll two would be as foel- ish as growing a kind of turnips with twice as much w;.ser i'll them.
Pine Bluff daily graphic., 1896-06-12
A Specimen Argument.

The following is one of Judge Crisp's favorite illustrations of the horrors of the gold standard:
 Suppose that you had been owing a debt of $100 for five years. You could have satisfied that debt five years ago with two bales of cotton. Today it will require three bales of cotton to cancel the same debt. The reason is the supply of money has been reduced and the de. nland has correspondingly increased. "
 "There are several fallacies in this statement, ' says the Atlanta Journal. ''In the first place the supply of money has not been reduced within the last five years, either in bulk or per capita
 But if Judge Crisp's argument IS good there must have been all immense increase ill the currency last year, for while it would have required nearly four bales of cotton to pay debt of $l00 ill 1894, two bales and a quarter would have paid it i'll 1895.
 "If Judge Crisp is ignorant on the subject he is discussing, he should ln- form himself before he poses as a Demo- cratic leader. If he knows more than his speeches indicate, he should not try to deceive the people.
 "When a politician, after study and thought, changes from being free coin age to a sound money advocate, he IS a turncoat and traitor, but when, to keep in the political swim, he changes from sound money to free silver coin age God bless himi he is statesman and patriot say all the silverites-
