apologists for this plank, can these millions

With legitimate proposition to increase the
number OF United States Supreme Court
Judges, or to abolish within constitutional
lines life tenure in Office, may have no con-
troversy; nor do l object TO proper criticisms
OF Judges and public officials. But when an
open. bald attempt is made to increase the
number of Judges with the aYowed purpose
of securing q decision on any question In q
predetermined way patriotic and intelligent
men may well hold up their hands in horror.
Speaking of the claim of regularity
he says:
Does party regularity demand bind and
stupid allegiance 10 everything convention
held under the name of Democracy may do
I admit the impossibility OF drawing plat
form that in all things win be satisfactory TO
all Democrats. But never before have we
been asked to make compromise between
National honor and National degradation.
COMPROMISES may be made on many matters,
even on the currency issue, but the immortality
and de basement of compromises on questions
that directly affect the Nations honor and
good faith are not to be considered for
moment. The Democrats who responded to
President Lincoln's call to take up arms for
the maintenance of the Nations honor did
not cease to be Democrats because they proved
themselves patriots.
After referring to the condition of the
country and the lack of confidence pre-
vaillng and to the fact that the gold neces-

VALLEJO NOT A JERICHO.
Presiding Elder Willis Charge
Arouse the Wrath of
Citizens.
Denials of the Accusation That the
Peop'e of the Town
Are Ungodly.

VALLEJO, CAL, Sept. Is. - Church
going people, irrespective of denomina-
ton, as well as the citizens generally,
are much exercised over the statement
made by Rev. E. R. Willis, presiding elder
ference at Pacific Grove on the 10th inst,
in which he said:
"The word Vallejo is not synonymous
with righteousness. King Alcohol is on
the throne. The city stands because there
are more than ten righteous ones in it.
To find man at the mourner's bench in
Vallejo would surprise the people more
than an earthquake"
The average Vallejoite is willing to ad-
nit that there are here a few saloons
more than are actually required, but a
statement insip uating that the mum Der of
good people Is not more than ten is re-
pudiated as being untrue, malicious and
uncalled for. nor do the people enjoy be-
ing called modern Jerichoites. One of the
pastors who has been here for mum Der
of years says that his congregations are
large and that the people are both intel
lectual and spiritual. In no other place
did he have more liberal support than in
Vallejo.
"I have baptized sixty-fve into the
Cornell Baptist Church since I'have been
pastor" said the Rev. w. L. CASTOR, land
this does not include a large number of
'backsliders' who have been reclaimed"
Rev. Theodore F. Burnham, pastor of
the Presbyterian Church, says his congre-
cation is increasing so rapidly that there
is plan on foot to enlarge the seating
capacity in the church. The Catholic
church is filled with members at each SER
vice, and the Episcopal church is well at
tended. Last Sunday night the Methodist
church was crowded to the doors and the
aisles were filled with chairs to accommo-
date those who gathered to listen to the
closing sermon by Rev. Mr.. Woodward,
the retiring pastor. During his address
Mr.. Woodward took occasion to thank the
people for the very kind attention that
had been given him during his two years
stay and the cordial relations existing be,
tween the various churches.

STIRRING appeal to the True, Loyal
Democracy.
NEW YORK, n. Y, Sept. 13-The ex-
ecutive committee of the Democratic Hon.
est Money League to-day issued an ad-
dress to the Honest Money Democracy
of the Nation, who hold country and
honor above party in which they de-
nounce the currency and other planks of
the Chicago platform. The address con.
cludes:
Shall we sacrifice the prestige. character,
standing and influence Of this great people
that a com mbination of spectators may profit
by the sacrifice? Shall we permit the Supreme
Court OF this country to be tampered with
and its character destroyed that the yoke of
slavery may be permanently riveted about
our necks, and that unbridled license may be
given TO the enemies of our institutions?
Shall we indorse the doctrine of non-interfer-
ence with mob law merely to secure anarchist
support 10 the silver scheme?
From the graves of our patriotic dead comes
an appeal in the name of liberty against such
infamy.
True, loyal Democracy is now called to
patriotic duty, II worthy of American citizen
ship you will exercise your suffrage where it
viii do your country most good in this hour of
peril. Our country's honor, integrity and
safety, and the peoples rights and interests
constitute to-day Our political creed and the
badge OF true, loyal Democracy.

Sudden Transition From Poverty to
Great Health of a VirgtntGn.
CHICAGO, ILL, Sept. 13.-A local paper
says: Manganese has made E. r. Brain
erd rich. He is now bonanza king, and
his good fortune is as unexpected as it is
welcome. Away down in Virginia is a
500-acre tract of land which has restored
Mr.. Brainerd to prosperity. 1t came to
him many years ago in paYm ent OF bad
debt, and because he could not get rid of
it Mr.. Brainerd kept it. Now be is glad
he took 1t and kept it.
The most valuable deposit of manganese
ever found in this country has been
found there. A New York firm has offered
to either buy or develop the bonanza and
work will begin at once.
Mr.. Brainerds luck is at Lyndhurst,
Va. Last spring Mr.. Brainerd, who has
been a prominent contractor in Chicago
for years, met serious financial reverses
and failed. Now fortune has come again
in a most unexpected manner.
The significant thing about the bonanza
is that the supply is apparently mex
haustible. Manganese is found in many
places in America, but in pockets"
After being worked q short time all pre-
vious finds have been exhausted. Re-
ports from Mr.. Brainerd's land indicate
that the large supply there is boundless.
Manganese is metal used chiefly as
hux IN the iron industry, in furnaces, roll
ing-mills and foundries where pig iron is
converted into the marketable article.
