Observation-Disclosures.
The Truth Wanted
There is a vast difference between
mere gush and sound argument. We
think a careful, unbiased perusal Of
Bryan's so-calIed eloquence will dis
close the fact that about three-tnirds OF
it is pure gush, and gush don't go in
these plain matter-of-fact times. What
the people want is the ruth. and if the
democratic managers think the people
will put up win anything short of that
they are mistaken.-Saratoga Sun.
What Has II Done
What has the democratic party ever
done in the past in the way of reform
that anyone should but any confidence
in its promises now? A party that
never made a pledge in its life that it
redeemed; a parry that never tried hon
cstly and sincerely to work a single re-
form or bring about any good for the
peoples sake: a party that will promise
anything and everything for the sake
of getting into power as the democratic
party has always done, is not the party
to bring about the free coinage OF sill
yer, and nc silver man should trust it
a moment.-Saratoga Sun.
Must Go With Protection
Free silver is all right and is bound
to come, but it canno be combined
successfully with free trade. 1t must
go hand in hand with protection

HALEY Times Monday morning
John Than, road overseer for this
district, while somewhat the worse
for liquor, walked to the grade just
west of the bullion street bridge,
and stopped a band of sheep. That
is, he began to stop it; but while
he was holding back the van, the
masses in the rear crowded on, and
before the resulting jam was dis
persed, % sheep had been trampled
or smothered to death. The sheep
owner says they were worth 81
apiece. Mr.. Tham's reason for the
act is doubtless because the sheep
have repeatedly cut up the grade
and rolled rocks down upon it,
while coming through. 1t this way
be has been put to considerable ex-
pense.
