THE DECOY CANDIDATES.

The term "decoy candidates is very
appropriate one TO apply to the pretended
Democrats VINO will not support the nomi-
nees nor the platform OF the Chicago
convention, and yet have the effrontery 10
travel from place TO place processing to
be true Democrats. What IS "A "decoy'
candidate? II is a candidate who knows
that he is wearing the livery OF the
Democratic party 10 serve its enemies
in. IL IS al pretended Democrat 1t is
candidate who seeks to toll Democrats
into the Republican camp. Ii is Demo
crat. I'm one word. who has deserted his
coiors. and Is not satisfied with having
done so but seeks to "decoy" true Demo
Gratis into a place where they will newt
ably lose their standing i'm the National
Democratic party. 1t is 4 Democrats who
feels and knows that he IS acting a
part which IS totally unbecoming him or
any other real Democrat.
And just here. let us remind the reader
OF Prince Bismarcks letter 10 Governor
Culberson, OF Texas. published by MS
Yesterday. That Prince is not decoy
candidate nor a decoy statesman. He has
the highest reputation Of any statesman

THE CONTINUED PROSPERITY

That was so good a trip up that
Mr.. Bryan gave Mr.. Mckinley last
Monday on his record. that we feel like
keeping e before our readers. IL is es-
pocialiy GOOD as being an answer by Nc
Kinley himself to all the boasts OF
his party about the prosperity their
policy has given the farmers OF the land
Mr.. Bryan's attention was called 10 II
by the following, which Mr. Mckinley
said to one OF the delegations that called
on him at Canton last week:
Under the Republican protective
policy we enjoyed for more than thirty
years the most marvellous prosperity
that has ever been given TO any nation
OF the world. We not on.y had individual
prosperity. but we had national pros
perity."
Mr. Bryan In his speech called atten-
ton to the fact. and read the following
which Mckinley wrote and flied with the
Mckinley bill on April &c. 1890:
That there is a widespread depression
in this industry agriculture today
cannot be doubted One OF the chief
complaints now prevalent among our
farmers is that they can get no price for
their crops at all commensurate Win
the labor and capital invested In their
production. We have not believed that
our people. already suffering from low
prices. can or will be satisfied with legis-
lation which viii result in lower prices.
No country ever suffered when prices
were fairly remunerative. This great
industry is foremost In magnitude and
importance in our country. Its success
and urosnorify are vital to the nation No
prosperity is possible to other indus
tries II agriculture languish. The de-
preston in agriculture is not confined to
the United States. The reports Of the
Agricultural Department indicate that
this distress Is general: that Great Bril-
tain. France and Germany are suffer-
ing in a larger degree than the farmers
OF the United States"
Every man who has paid any attention
70 what is going on I'm the agTicul-
tural districts knows that the farming
interest is more depressed to-day than
IL was In 1872 and that IT IS still going
downward. But. Notwithstanding this.
the Republican National Convention re-
solved that things must stay as they are
for four years more. as far as they are
concerned. Is 1t any wonder that on the
farms they are welcoming Bryan as
deliyerer?

LIGHTNING CHANGES.

The Times Of yesterday again posed as
one Of the lord high protectors Of the
Supreme Court. although in 1889. after
sneering at that tribunal as a Yankee
court" 1t delivered this opinion OF it:
I'VE repeat. then, that, paradoxical as
1t may appear. the Supreme Court OF the
United States is the fountain-head Of
Socialists OF the United States. and I'M
less the pernicious doctrine that it has
put out can be overthrow. Il threatens
to become a foundation upon which the
Socialists will erect a structure that Will
overthrow all our institutions and bring
tyranny upon u.s.
In its issue OF Sunday the Times at
tempted to belittle Mr.. Bryans speech at
the Exposition-G Grounds. and yesterday
sneered at the Democratic nominee as the
American Mahdi." yet in July. 1882, it
had this to say Of him:
"Hon William J. Bryan spoke on Tues
day in Culpeper. and made a strong i'm
preston upon his audience. 1t was not
the least interesting feature OF his adj
dress that IL was delivered in the county
in which his father was born and where
the bones Of many of his ancestors are
buried This IS the third speech Mr..
Bryan has made in Virginia in the last
few months. and in each instance he has
sustained the fine reputation which he ac-
CURED By his first speech In Congress.
The Times is now engaged in parenthet-
ically eulogizing Palmer. having on Sa-
turday placed him on a pedestal as a hero,
but four short years ago it criticised him
as follows:
1--WE know very little Of Senator PAL
mer. OF Illinois. but what We know
Of him had caused US TO respect him;
but the speech which he delivered in
the Senate last Thursday upon the Home
stead riots causes US TO revise our opin-
ion of him, and to prefer further de-
velopments before we rank him as
statesman fitted 10 lead popular thought
The Times is also engaged from day to
day in an effort to eniighten the guile
less" Dispatch on the subject of election
frauds in Virginia. As the Dispatch has
frequently said, it believes the elections
in Virginia are as honest as are the cleo
tions I'm any other state. But even were
the Dispatch mistaken il Is not guileless
and innocent enough to accept the Times
as a teacher, seeing that if that paper IS
TO maintain it's reputation for marvellous
lightning changes and doubling back on
itself II will ere long essay to prove that
there never was even an irregular ballot
cast in Virginia.

Omen Letter TO General Buckner.

The eX-Confederates of Bath county,
Ky. have written an open letter 10 Gene
raj Buckner. After complimenting the
General upon his administration as Gov
ernor OF Kentucky. they note that the
Indianapolis convention was silent on the
subject OF Breckinridgeism. and that
Buckners running made Palmer. while

TIE PEOPLE AROIsED.

The Democratic orators might quit
speaking and 90 home. and yet Bryan
would be elected President of the United
States on the "a OF November next. As
we have said heretofore. the people are
aroused as we have never seen them
aroused before. and are doing their own
speaking. their own thinking. and their
own talking. How Is II possible for Nc
Kinley 10 get majority OF the electors

From nowhere, The people are on the
Bryan side, and will let that fact be
known on election-day. We are not boast

THACHER.s CANDIDACY.

John Boyd Thatcher holds high rank
among the Democrats OF the Empire
state. but he Is out OF place on the
state ticket and. therefore. the State
Committee has asked him to withdraw.
This request he should certainly comply
with. with many apologies for the mis-
take into which his friends led the Bufialo
convention. lie was nominated upon the
express statement Of friends Of his that
he would support Bryan and Sewali and
the Chicago platform. Now IL appears
that while he is willing 10 support our
nominees he condemns the currency
plank OF the platform. In other words.
he is opposed to his party on the main
issue upon which this fight is TO be
fought. So he Is a misft on the ticket
and the sooner he gets out OF the way
the better ii will be for all concerned.
Some latitude may be allowed In these
matters 10 the individual voter, who
yields to the judgment OF the majority
and falls into line for Bryan and Sewall.
but he who is TO bear the party's stand
ard in the Empire State ought to occupy
no equiyocal position. He ought TO be
able and ready 20 uphold his party's
creed upon any and every occasion.
The Buffalo convention blundered sadly
when IL took up Mr.. Thatcher without
knowing exactly where he stood upon
the question Of the hour. and. as we have
said. the best thing that the party can
do now is to get rid OF Thatcher. and put
full sympathy with the platform and cam
didates both.

WILL PETITION THE GOVERNOR.
Mary harness Counsel VIII Present
Facts in Her Case.

Captain A. Il. Gugon. Of counsel for
Mary Barnes. the negro woman now
serving a tm-years' sentence in the
penjtentiary for completely in the murder
Of Mrs. Lucy Jane Pollard, said yester-
day' that in al few days petition en-
bracing the facts i'm her case would be
submitted 10 the Governor. and that
upon this her release from custody would
be asked. He further stated that he and
his associates were very hopeful that
Mary would soon be given her freedom.
Mary Alternately. another Of the women
charged with Mrs. Pollard's murder, and
who was released Monday. is al the
house Of Bette Graves, on First street.
Her infant child is with her. Many
persons called upon Mary yesterday. and
John Mitchell expects TO have a jollif-
cation in her honor next week. when he
trusts Mary Barnes will be enabled TO be
present.
There are a couple Of very pretty and
pathetic incidents in connection with the
case OF Mary Alternately, who has twice
so narrowly escaped the gallows. one
occurred just after Judge Crute passed
the death sentence upon her last April.
The Judges sentence was very sor-
rowful one His Honor at that time had
a son at Bedford City who was III with
fever. and after pronouncing the solemn
words condemning the prisoner at The
bar he adjourned his court and started
10 leave the room. Mary called 70 him
What Is IT, Aunt Mary?" asked Judge
Crute. naturally supposing that she
wished to ask him some questions regard
ing her own case.
Use heard about yo' little boy being
81 s1lr Esarr
he IS" replied the old colored woman.
well. Aunt Mary" replied the Judge,
from what | hear he IS no better"
Use so sorry 70 hear dat. Judge.
hopes he'll soon be well again" said the
prisoner at the bar. and Judge Crute hur-
riedly left the courtroom to hide the
two big tears which trickled DOWN his
cheeks.
The other incident occurred at Roanoke
on Monday. Captain Guigon had tele-
graphed TO the Sheriff 10 have Mary at
the depot when the afternoon train ar
rived Without ceremony the woman was
told to prepare to leave at once. The
lawyer got 10 the Hill City. and went
into the station. where he found the
woman in the custody Of a ieputy sheriff.
Captain GUigOn showed TO the latter the
order Of the Court dismissing tae case
against Mary. and the woman. after
greeting her counsel. said: Captain Gull
gon. what is yo' gwine to do with me
noW2'
I'm going 10 take you 10 Richmond"
replied Captain Guigon, who had rot up
to that time advised the prisoner that
che had been set free.
What for?" queried Mary eagerly.
Because you are free was the an
swer OF the Captain. These words dunn
founded the woman. She looked first at
the Richmond attorney, then at the
Deputy Sheriff. and vice versa. Captain
Guigcn finally turned 10 the Deputy, and.
laughingly. asked IL he was not .olling
Aunt Mary" the truth. When the Off
Ger replied in the affirmative the poor oil
negro was so overjoyed ihlt she troke
down and cried. and could lot eat any Of
the lunch which had been provided for
