Will Strengthen BRYAN.

The right Of the majority to control
has been q cardinal principle of the
democratic faith since the
organization of the democratic party.
To stand Loyalty by the party, no
matter what the majority might say
or do, has been the test of sound
democrat from the beginning. The
rank aud file of the party have been
taught that the greatest merit lies in
absolute submission to the will and
voice of the majority. Two-thirds of
the Chicago convention declared for
q platfo form and candidates which are
distasteful to the other one third, and
the dissatisfied minority now threat
ems to call another convention, make
another platform name other candi'
dates, and appeal to the democracy
OF the country for support. Such a
movement if carried out will have
little chance to develop into formid-
able proportions. The time between
now and November is too short to
teacn the average democrat tnat the
very thing which democracy has al,
ways held as the most heinous party
crime is this year political virtue.
Men do lot unlearn the lessons of a
lifetime SO quickly. Should the bolt
ing democrats put up o ticket of their
own, it would probably lose many
votes to Mckinley, and but few te
Diyan. IIiose democrats WHO wOulC
support the boilers ticket would, as q
rule, not vote for Bryan in any case,
while many of them, in the absence OF
such ticket, would quietly vote for
Mckinley. In this view the proposed
boilers ticket would insure the ad.
vantage OF Mr.. Bryan and should
therefore be encouraged by his sup.

Currant Worm.

We have several reports saying
that the currant worms has defoliated
all the currant and gooseberry bushes.
AS they appear when the fruit is we'll
developed, people are justly afraid of
using poisons. Hence the statement
of Mr.. r. Derby, of Florence, Ohio,
that a weak solution of salt and
water, will kill the worms, has much
interest. He says, in the North
American Horticulturist: II was
talking with a farmer just the other
day, who said he gave his currant
bushes an application of paris green
since the currants began to ripen,
which is a dangerous procedure. /
have long since settled the danger
and the currant worm by using q
weak solution of salt and water.
This is an infallible remedy. When
ever the currant worm puts in an ap-
pearauce, sprinkle all bushes where
they are seen with a solution of salt
and water, and rest assured. If too
strong it will kill the foliage.
We have not tried this plan as we
have no currant worms here yet.
But we have sprinkled rose bushes,
on which the rose slug Was at work,
with a weak solution of salt and
water and found it quite as effective
as poisoned water. Rural Life

The goldbug bolt from the demo
cratic party proves beyond contro-
versy that Rothchild has no title to
Bryan, and has given up all hopes of
buying him. If he had the slightest
hope that he could convert Bryan in
goldbug organs would have taken
time to consider the propriety of sup
porting the Chicago candidate. The
fact that goldbugs will not support
Bryan shows that they put COR
ruption above party. Is that not a
reason why the plain producing peo-
pie should put principle above party?
The party of spoils is unit. Roths-
child, Pierpont Morgan, Carlisle.
Cleveland. Sherman, Mckinley, Han
ma and the whole gang who look to
the treasury for profit and to the
government for piunder vote the same
ticket. The ticket they vote is not
the peoples ticket. No argument is
necessary now for those who prefer
the coinage laws of the better days of
the Republic to the coinage laws Of
Cleveland and Sherman, and an in
dependent financial policy for the
Unite States. The enemies of that
policy have advertised themselves
They are known and they have told
the people at last how they will vote.
If the people desire relief from the
universal distress that they now suffer
they must vote against the combinas
ton. 1t is as impossible for an
American citizen to vote with the
goldbug combination and be q true
patriot as it is for a good Christian to
enlist himself under the banner of the
devil, and still be u good christian.
Vote against the way the enemy votes
and you will vote right.-Silver

The amount will be, if it all should
come, as the gold advocates predict,
but $5S per capita, an amount that
will not produce alarm among the
people.
Money of whatever material made,
if issued by the government of great

Silver and the Farmer.
Contributed by an ex-Republlcan.l

Contributed by an ex-Republcanl
An article in the Mirror of July Sd,
copied from the Henderson (Ky. Sun,
headed "All Prices Would Advance"
reads thus:
"Let those farmers who believe free
silver will cause the prices of fam
products to advance ask themselves
this simple question:: Will free silver
cause wheat to advance to $1.00 u
bushel, or corn to 80 cents bushel,
and not cause $1,000 suit of clothes
to advance to $4,000, or a $1.O0 hat to
SO 00?"
Can it be possible that any intelli-
gent farmer believes free silver will
advance the price of the products of
his labor and not the price of the pro-
ducts of every other mans labor.
What an absurd question! To be sure
we do not think it will nor do we
want it to. Now, for an illustrations:
Last year l raised 1900 bushels of
wheat which I sold at 80 cents per
bushel. 1 realized 1856. Now, had
the price been Shopper bushel should
have received $1,000, my gain would
have been $915. Now, suppose had
to pay $4,000 for $1,000 suit of
clothes, could l not we'll afford to do
so? Who would gain by the suit of
clothes advancing in price? Would
not the farmer? / am now raising
sheep and sold wool for 10 cents o
pound. Surely if suits or hats double
in price the wool from which they are
made would advance and would not
that be gain for the farmer?
Yes, we are for free silver, or low
priced money and high priced pro-
ducts and less bankers and we will be
satisfied. Now, it is my opinion if the
republicans have SO nearly exhausted
their campaign gas as to make use of
such weak arguments as these against
silver they had better drop the Nc
Kinley field and go west and raise 80
cent wheat. do not say it will pay
them big but perhaps it will pay them
as as we'll as it will to figure farmers
loss and gain by the clothing method.

Hon. G. A. Walsh, of Ottumwa.
Iowa's new member of the national
committee, has been made temporary
secretary of the national. democratic
committee, and will probably be ell
ected permanent secretary when the
committe meets again. Mr.. Walsh is
in every respect qualified for the
position. He has. been secretary of
the democratic state central commit
tee of Iowa for several years past, and
is a tireless and efficient worker. The
star of empire is moving westward
and there is no reason why some of
its rays should not fall upon Iowa.
