Mr.. HAYSIE, the gentleman sent out
by the Boston Herald to interview the
people Of the west on the silver ques-
tion. stopped at Washington and among
other silver senators interviewed Mr..
Teller. Il was glad to meet man
whose reputation is 20 wide and 80 dis
tinguishcd as that Of Senator Teller. l
had long since learned the estimation in
which LIE is held by the public; in Wash
ington found out that no man in the
senate holds higher position than Sen
ator Teller OF Colorado. He is one Of
the acknowledged leaders Of the upper
house. as he is undoubtedly one Of the
leading statesmen Of the United States"
More money is wanted" said Senator
Teller. "and silver can easily be made
the equal Of gold for all standard pur-
poses. Bimetallism will do this, aud
bimetallism is what we are working for"
He called my attention to the views OF
General Walker Of Massachusetts, and
spoke Of him as among the greatest Of
living exponents Of bimetallism in the
United States. But great as he is a.
disciple. the general dares not proclaim
himself a. in favor Of free coinage. The
very fact that he is at the head Of
great Boston institution prevents his
doing %. and yet his views on bimetal.
iism arc my views, - they are the views
OF the leading men among the silverites."
After he reaches Colorado he will find
that Senator Teller is regarded by the
people OF this state 40 = statesman
worthy Of honor at homo as well ms
abroad.

SENATOR TELLER and Congressman
Saafroth are perfectly correct in their
determination not to go as delegates to
the republican national convention.
There is not the slightest doubt but that
the result Of that convention will he the
nomination OF man unsatisfactory to
the people Of Colorado, and on platform
equally unsatisfactory to them, so there
would bc nothing gained by their going.
On the contrary If they stay out Of that
convention they will be in position OF
absolute independence SO far a. their

Eulogy to a Departing Pastor

To the First Baptist Church, Pine Bluff, Ark
 We, your committee appointed to draft suitable resolutions expressive of our regret at the departure of our beloved pastor, the Rev. N. K. Pen rod, beg leave to report the follow. ing:
 WHEREAS, We have enjoyed the pastoral labor of Rev. N. K Penrod for four years and ten months. and said relations are now severed by his voluntary resignation to become pastor of the First Baptist Church of Paducah, Ky, where the Master has called him. we desire to say that through his pastoral labors the church has prospered more than i'll any other period of its history; the church membership has grown from 1S0 to $40; the spiritual tone of the congregation increased very materi- ally and our house of worship en- larged and beautified. Not only has our pastors work borne fruit in iB- crease of membership and spirituali- ty in our church, but the entire city has been greatly benefited by his stay among us, as the moral tone given to our city isin no small meas ure due to his efforts.
 We realize that our loss is Padu- cah's gain, because we have labored with Bro. Penrod until we know and love him. He is fine orator, n fluent ntspeaker, a deep thinker, fear less preacher and a staunch Baptist man who hates sin and its conse quences, yet filled with n deep love for humanity and the cause of Christ He has ever striyen to preach tht Gospel, pure and simple, as delivered by Christ to the Apostles; therefore | be it
 Resolved, First, That 1t is witt profound regret that we consent te our pastor, Rev. W. K. Penrod, sev ering his connection with us. anC that we pledge to him and his be loved family our prayerfnl support in his new field of labor, praying thal his efforts there may be crowned with even greater success than here
 Second. That this preamble ant these resolutions be spread upon th' church records, q copy furnished oni late pastor, Bro. W. K. Penrod, ant a copy furnished the Arkansas Bap tist for publication. Fraternall, submitted

 Mir. Grace was the first speaker in- trodueed by President White He devoted an hour to an argument of the silver question. and his many we'll made points and happy hits were loudly applauded by his hear- CTS.
 Mir. Adams was then introduced, who occupied the platform for about twenty minutes. lie devoted hs time to a review of the history of the Democratic and Republican parties, and showed. in a very clear and con vincing manner, that the Republican party is wholly responsible for the ills of legislation from which our peo- pie are suffering today. He closed by an appeal for the Democratic standard bearers of the party.
 After the conclusion of the speeches, President White announced that he was in correspondence with aum- Der of notable speakers, among whom are Judge Bryant. of Fort Smith, and Paul Jones. of Texark- ana, and that he expected to have some of them present soon to ad- dress the club.
 Hon. J. NJ. Hudson then arose and presented his resignation IS Treas urer of the club, which was accepted, and Mir. $. Y. T. Knox was elected to fill the vacancy.
 Some time was then devoted to ways and means for rais- ing funds for the club, after which the meeting adjourned.
