Silver Recommendation Threatened.

But now we are brought face to face
with a proposition which If agreed to will
make silver the sole standard of value for
all debts and credits, for the wages of labor
and the purchase and sale of. property. The
Democratic party at its recent convention
at Chicago adopted resolution in favor Of
the free coinage of silver at the ratio of Is
parts of silver to l of golS. We know
that in the United States and in all coun.
tries in the world 80 ounces OF more of sill
yer can be purchased by l ounce of gold.
With the free coinage of silver gold will be
demonetized. Nothing can be more GER
tain than that the cheaper money only will
circulate. The United States has thus far
maintained its silver coins at parity with
gold coins only by its exclusive monopoly
of coinage, and by limiting the amount,
but with free coinage of silver there could
be no limitation. Silver bullion in every
form will be pressed upon the minis and
with the mandatory duty of free coinage
silver dollars will soon fill the channels of
circulation and the gold dollar will be
boarded or will be quoted and sold as
commodity at about 1914 cents of the silver
coin Silver will stand as the par value
and gold will be quoted at its commercial
value
Let us contemplate for awhile the inevi-

 "YOU WON'T TOTE EA|R'' Accusation and Reply of Popu- IiteS and Republicans. SPLIT BY THE SP0ILS The Forks of the Road Are in Plain View. What the Meeting Today May
 Develop,

The republicans and populites are in the middle of a bad fix politically. The republicans want the populites to support their electoral ticket and the pops want to play hands off until after the August election. F The republicans say they have yielded all the fat state offices on the ticket to the pops, on which there Is not a single colored man, with the expectation of ob- taining the populist support for their electoral ticket. Now the populites are holding back some saying broadly they will not support Mckinley on account of his position on the financial question The negroes claim, however, it is be- cause they have colored men on the tick ct, and unless the whites will promise to stand by them in November they will ''renig" in August and put out another ticket.
 It was talked on the streets yesterday by some of the leaders that the anti-Mc- Kinley faction of the republican party and the populites of the Fourth Congress sional district will not support Commis sioner H. A. Wilson, the regular nominee, and they will either hold another con- vention and nominate w. F. Aldrich or insist on his running as an independent.
 Dr. R. A. Moseley, chairman of the county republican executive committee, mas called meeting or ms commlttee for today for the purpose of filling the vacancies on the fusion ticket, and if the populites refuse to indorse it a straight republican ticket will be put out.
 The republican state executive com mittee at its recent meeting unseated the Ninth district delegates and seated Major Hunter and w. H. Harney as members from the Ninth district instead of w. c. Hanlon and A. J. Warner, and acknowledged the county committee pre- sided over by c. c. Caperton.
 The meeting today promises to be very lively and may result in the putting out of straight republican ticket, as the old leader is very sore over his treat ment and has got on his war paint.
 It is also given out that Dr. Moseley will call meeting of his state commit tee at an early date to take action in regard to the Vaughn committee unseat- ing the committeeman from the Ninth district. .teit-.r
 The republican factions are in a con- siderable muddle, and the pops. it seems, can't keep them in the middle of the road three days at time, and it is not improbable that there will be a general "bust-up" before the first Monday in Au- gust.
