Henri Watterson has returned home
after spending several months beyond
the waters, hobnobbing, affiliating and
associating with crown heads and
funkies. He nov proposes to tour the
South occurring and reaping q harvest
of coed, honest silver dollars. 1t il our
opinicp, the people Of Mississippi have
no desire to hear him. Here OF late he
has made his bed among strangers and
partaken of their fire; SO let him there
remain. Instead Ct to the Sunny South,
his lecture on Morals and Money,
should be delivered in the great States
Of Vermont md Rhode Island. Oxford

Oar Jackson Letter.

Special To The Commonwealth.
JACKSON, Miss, Dee. 14.-There has
not been anything very startling in the
way OF appointments down about Jack
son for week, but one was madeover at
Nicksburg that can be traced all the way
to the executive office, and came about
as do most, if not all, other appoint
ments through political trades and traf-
ics, as d reward for services rendered

cognition Of tiuness and ability to serve
the State TO The best advantage.
Reference is had TO the selection Of a
Jackson man. as court stenographer Of
the circuit presided over by Judge VIM.
K. McLauTin, a brother OF the governor,
and who was one of the very first men
appointed to place. and power by this
administration. The appointment of
Mr.. r.. p. Stockton as stenographer to
succeed Mr.. Harris Dickson, was a mat
ter OF very great surprise, not only to
the bar Of the Vicksburg district, but
to the people of the state generally, not
that there is any objection to Mr.
Stockton as a man, he being a perfect
stranger, but because the lawyers Of the

PALMER's SILVER RECORD

During the time that Senator Palmer
was owner and editor OF the Illinois
State Register, at Springfield in 1887
and 1883, he was warm supporter Of
free silver, and the editorial columns
OF the paper during those years teemed
with rank free silver matter. satur-
day, March 10, 1873, he said, editor
tally:
"The prophesies OF evil in conse-
quence Of the restoration Of the silver
dollar were the result OF q desire to
maintain the national banks as the
monopolists Of the currency, and the
howl for National party is tn e result
of desire to bag lot of recruits to
be sold to the Republican party"
Wednesday, April 3, 1878, he said;
The State Register favors the free
coinage of both gold and silver. which
is currency that nobody can con troll.
The right to control the currency is
one which the people have never dele
gated to anybody"
Friday, April 8, 1878, he said:

overwhelmed with the business "
eastern capitalists who are forcing the
foreclosure of mortgages in order to
meet the "silver craze" The Tribune
further says: "The borrowers, unable
in the majority OF cases TO raise money
to meet these sudden calls upon them,
are losing property worth frequently
three or four times the amount OF the
incumbrance upon it,"
This habit OF forcing the borrowing
classes 10 the wall in order TO hold
them there through the single gold
standard, has lost its effect both in
the Agricultural and the manufactur-
ing sections Of the country. The hard
times which have followed the de-
monetization of silver in 1873 have
taught the borrowing and producing
classes that better times are impossible
to them under a single gold standard,
which can be manipulated at will by
the creditor classes.
The Chicago Tribune's brutal attacks
upon the silver men and the silver
cause are making friends for free coin
age everywhere.

CURVES BY A MACHINE.
Prof. Hinton Exhibits His Mechan-
ical Pitcher to Princeton students

Princeton, n. j., Dec. l6.-Prof Charles
ii. Hinton gave a practical demonstration
OF the value of his pitching machine this
evening. This was the first time that his
''Mecha nical Pitcher has been exhibited
before the public, and a large majority of
the students and townspeople took id
vantage OF the opportunity to STE the ma
Chine in actual running order. The ma
chine was exhibited in the gymnasium, and
several shots were thrown to show con
clusively of what real value the apparatus
was. Capt. Jerome Bradley presided at
the meeting, and introduced Prof Hinton
Prof Hinton explained the curve with
illustrations OF firing the annon, and
showing how the fingers made the bah
take the curve, nd how the size and length
OF the twirl could be regulated. 1t is ex-
peCted that this discovery will revolu-
tionize the game of baseball. Capt Brad
ley is going to use the cannon in practice
next spring, and If the gun does the work
as it is expected to do, Princeton will have
team of heavy hitters.
The great fault with the gun is that the
batter is unable to see when the ball is
coming, and hence loses the practice of
observing the lifting of the pitchers foot.
the throw of his arm, and other actions CON
nected with the delivery of a ball. Prof
Hinton thinks he can fix this matter up all
right by putting a sort of an arm o the
machine. which will initiate the movement
of a pitchers arm.

CAPITOL RESTAURANTS.
Sale of IntOxicants Under Control of
Committee Already.

Contrary TO Senator Quays expectation,
the bill offered by Mr.. Little last spring
and passed by. tire House a week ago to
prohibit liquor.sell.ng in the Capitol was
referred in the Senate 10 the Committee on
Public Buildings and Grou nds.
THIS committee consists OF the following
Senators: Messrs. Quay, Morrill,, Squire,
Mantle, Warren, Carter, Gear, Vest, Daniel,
Gordon, Blanchard and Murphy
The control of the restaurant and Incl
dentaily OF the selling OF liquor has been
in the hands Of the committee of that name
in the House for twenty-fi five years. In
March, 1863, a resolution was passed de
priying the restaurant OF its saloon pnvi-
,eges by amending the nineteenth Join:
rule OF the two branches of Congress. Tn
der this the contra with Edward Smclb
for running the restaurant was Cancelled.
In the course OF the months following
there was considerable agitation of the
question The joint rules were eventually
abandoned, and ia that way the rule against
selling intoXicantS in the Capitol lost its
force.
Finally the Committee oh Public Build
ings and Grounds assumed control of the
matter, without any particular warrant
from the House, and has ever since man
aged the business of letting the privileges
by common consent
While there il 10 law defining the posi-

Hosts OF people suffer from the various
Malignant poisonS in their blood, which
