A Temperance Play.

"Past Redemption will be presented
by home talent i'll this city on or about
the 18th prox. This is moral temper
ance drama of great power, giving ample
scope for the best histrionic talent. The
play is leader of its kind, having had
run of 100 nights in the Park theater of
New York City by stock company,
playing every night to crowded houses.
The drama has four first-class comedy
parts. The villain iis a genteel one,.
something like Francis Levison of EAST
Lvnne." The leading juvenile character
is that of farmers boy, active and in,
telligent, who is led into crooked paths
and is afterwards redeemed. The play
has a powerful moral tone, and its pre-
sentatlon wherever it is given has won
-derful effect for good.

The Democratic Definition.

The Democratic Congressional Cam
paign Committee has issued doc
ument on the Business Mems
Campaign" 1t says that the re-
publicans proposd such campaign
and that the democracy accepts the
issue. The document first quotes Mr..
Bryan's declaration that the farmer
or the hired employe is as much a
business man as the banker or the big
merchant. 1t then gives list of the
number of persons employed in four
teen gainful pursuits, including agri
culture, mining, manufacturing,
transportation, the purpose being to
show the comparatively small per
centage comprised under the head Of
bankers, brokers and wholesalers.
The docum ent comments on these
figures, winding up with the asser-
ton that from the republican stand
point only the few bankers, brokers',
Wholesalers, and corporation officers
are business men, while from the
democratic standpoint the millions
of farmers, producers and laborers of
all classes are as much business men
as the few who live, thrive, and grow
rich by trading in the products of
labor. Washington Post.

A Practical View Of the Matter

Frank H. Cooper, of the extensive
firm of Siegel, Cooper & Co, OF
Chicago and New York, which is one
of the largest retail firms in the world,
has lust returned from Europe. he
is alive to the issues of the day, and
has kept well posted while away from
Chicago, and here are his views on
the financial issue:
~ can't see anything but good to
result from the free coinage of silver
True it will benefit the mine owners
and the West. 1t will give the farmer
money: it will make better prices for
farm products; it will make the farmer
buyer in our markets.
"Times can be no worse than they
are at present. Our currency is not
expensive enough for the demands OF
the people. France has $40 per
capita of money in circulation, and
its people are prosperous and happy
We have $40 per capita. We need
more money, and free silver coinage
will put an end to business stagna-
ton. Our factories are closed, and
our artisans and mechanics are out OF
work. More money will make higher
prices, better demand for goods, and
a revival of prosperity.
Goods and produce are too cheap
because people have no money tc
buy. Lines of goods have been re.
duced more than 80 per cent. in the
past six months. With free silver the
price of wheat and corn would en-
nance in value. Dollar wheat for the
farmer makes him look at his clothes
When they are frayed he buys new
He refurnishes his house if it is
needed, and so helps to start the
furniture factories going again. 1t is
so in all lines. The more money the
greater demand for goods. A single
gold standard would bring prices still
lower and more failures and more
disasters for the people. We are
partially upon a bimetallic basis now
that is in measure our salvation
Talking of free silver, our minis
could not out over $G0,000,000 pei
year-less than 81 to every .-inhabi
tant. Would that flood the country
1t would restore prices, confidence
and resuscitate business. That's
about, I think, what free silver
would do for US. We want to take
care of ourselves first-Europear
countries are able to take care Of
themselves"

Only Two Candidates.

"From statements / have seen
about the connection of the Honest
Money Democratic League with the
! coming campaign it is evident that
the objects of that organization have
not been understood, and further,
the grounds why oppose the send
ing Of sixteen delegates to 1ndianop'
lis to participate in convention
which will nominate the third ticket
have evidently been misunderstood.
There is en- honest difference as to
the advisability of placing a third
ticket in the field in this State.
have already expressed my own views
on this point, and did not express
them until 1 had consulted large
number CT sound money democrats.
"There are only two candidates in
the field who can possibly be elected,
Bryan and Mckinley, and every
democrat when he goes to the polls
must make his choice between
them. "-H. A. Parr, President of the
"Honest-Money Democratic League, "
Of Baltimore.
Mr.. Parr is right. There is no such
thing as neutrality in this contest.
We must choose between Bryan ano
Mckinley.
Mr.. Parr would have his people
vote for Mckinley; we would have
ours vote for Bryan. The most OF
our old friends are enlisted under
Bryan's lead. The most of our old
enemies are enlisted under McKin-
ley's. In Virginia the most of the
Bryan men are whites, while the
most OF the Mckinley men are blacks.
We don't want to be led by any
such republican as Mckinley, nor by
any such democrat as Bourke Cock
ran, and we don't wish to be guilty
of the pretence of voting for third
ticket when we know that the only
effect of so doing would be to make
it possible for the black and white
McKinleyites to carry Virginia.
This is an election where every
man should come into the open and
stand up and be counted on one side
or the other-for Bryan or Mckinley.

The people have long since learned
that the most disagreeable medicines
are not necessarily the best. In fact,
as a rule, they are not. What is
wanted is something mild and sure,
as Chamberlain Collie, Cholera and
Diarrh@a Remedy. That is really
pleasant to take when reduced with
water and sweetened. Then it is
acknowledged everywhere to be the
most successful remedy in the world
for bowel complaints. Ask any num-
Der of druggists for the best remedy
they have for diarrhWa and fully
nine out of ten will recommend
Chamberlain's. In speaking of the
this medicine, Mr. B. B. Buffum, of
Friendsville, Susquehanna Co., Pa,

Tuesday until its close, the grounds
were crowded with people from the

larger ATTENDANCE than ever before.
The good weather of course has
helped to swell the throng, but it
would have been large even if the
elements had been less favorable.

of the departments this year over
any previous year, showed an inter.

Silver Argument i'll the Gold Press.

The New York Financial News has
an explanation for a fact that has
struck great many people as Curl
ous-namely, the tremendous growth
of the silver movement in the face Of
the almost united opposition of the
most powerful" newspapers of the
country.
This explanation is to the effect
that while these powerful" news
papers have bitterly opposed the free
coinage of silver in their editorial
columns, they have been compelled
to print in their market reports, day
after day, the most irresistible and
unanswerable arguments against the
single gold standard.
This is true. The market reports
of the gold newspapers during the
past three years have day after day
Furnished to all their readers the
most complete object lesson that
could be conceived of in behalf OF the
restoration of silver and against the
single gold standard. While the sub.
sidized newspapers of the east and
west have thundered against the free
coinage of silver in their editorial
columns, and belittled and denounced
those who favor it, their market re-
ports have swarmed with the cold
facts calculated to impress any reader
of average intelligence that the gold
standard is rapidly bankrupting the
country.
For example, in a recent issue of a
New York newspaper, there is long
editorial denouncing the agitation OF
the free coinage question because 1t
prevents us from getting capital from
Europe. On its market page the same
paper announces the export of 1,l72,
600 ounces of silver bullion. Every
intelligent reader knows that this
shipment of silver is to be used
against this country in trade. We
call loudly for European capital, and
vet ship American capital out of the
country at half price. With free
coinage, the 1,172, 900 ounces of bull
lion silver would have been converted
into more than $1,5O0,000 of available
capital-capital that would seek in
vestment in our industries and be
distributed in the channels of trade
and business. And so with every
shipment of silver bullion that has
been exported since 1878. Free coin
age would have turned it all into
available money, and long before
this we would have been OH the
highest plane of property ever
reached by any nation.
That is what free coinage would
have done, and that is what it will
do.-Atlanta Constitution.
