hostile to, but tacitly acquicscing
in free silver coinage (.
Congressman Allen has said,
eve have the gold men lin the
Democratic party whipped if they
don't buy u.s." But Mr.. Allen
does not tell us when this pur-
chase is TO he made. They may
buy delegates enough in the con-
vention at Chicago, they may buy
up Congressional conventions, and
they can and will buy cheaper the
Congressman after election, and
there will be fewer to buy. We have
not forgotten the big auction sale
in 1898 when the Sherman silver
law was repealed, when Cleveland,
RothschiId & Co. bought the whole
lot. What guarantee can the DEM
ocratic party give that this will
not be repeated ? Just here comes
IN the grandest opportunity ever
offered this party to unite all the
elements of reform by declaring
in unmistakable terms their desire
for reform, and giving beyond
peradventure of a doubt the assu-
rance that they put principle above
party.
Let the Democrats nominate
Hon. Henry M. Teller, and we can
predict with certainty that the
people will flock to him by mil
lions, for he stands to-day peer
less among all men in America.
He has just walked out of the ma
tional Republican Convention be-
cause it adopted the gold standard.
! Read the address of the men who
bolted at St. Louis, published in
another column.
| Mr.. Teller was one of the noble
band that stood between the South
and the force bill in 1890. This Is
not the first time he stood between
the people and acts of party ty-
ranny, or has taken issue with his
party on vital questions. Mr.. Tel
Ter has given us the only utterance
in the Fify-fourth Congress that
will live in history, when he said,
"As l speak, SO l will vote" and
he has been true to it, as his actor
last week proves.
Let us take this noble and man
ly sentiment as our battle-cry, in.
scribe it on our banners, and TIT
people will rally to it rs one man
and easily reclaim their now los
HERITAGE free government.
Will the Democratic party hav'
the wisdom and the liberality t.
inaugurate this great movement t.
, restore this Government to tn
, people, or will they with blint
! partisanship divide the forces an(
, insure defeat, and another toul

Thc Outlook.

The political outlook is to-day
filed with much uncertainty. In
making our forecast we leave the
Republican party out, rs it has
sealed Its fate by adopting the
gold standard. The Democratic
party, if it acts with unprccedent-
ed wisdom and non-partlsanship,
can unite all Tie elements of re-
form.
So far the name of only one
Democrat has been prominently
mentioned for the Presidential
nomination-that of Boies, of Iowa.
We have in our possession the
financial plank written by Mr..
Boies for the Iowa State Conven-
ton, and it is one that Cleveland,
Sherman. and Carlisle would en-
dOrse without dottlng an OF
crossing a t.
The Democrats cannot by any
possibility win without the help OF
others outside of their party, and
this help they cannot get unless the
nomination carries with it some
assurance and pledge of good faith
on their part and at the same time
proves to the world that they put
principle far above party. Il
there Simon pure Democrat thai
can be trusted in party with
large and extreme gold minority

ALLEN, La, June 26th, 1896.
Editor Louisiana Pepulist:
Dear Sir:-Some time since
card was published in the Enter
prise signed by me, denying my
name being to certain resolutions
published in your paper from ward
5, and declaring myself to be law
abiding citizen, this is the sub
stance if not the exact words (; from
which statement it went out i'm
mediatcly that l had gone over to
the Democratic party and taken
an oath to support said party.
This is a base falsehood to begin
with.
Then / see in the Shreveport
times a statement in regard to
the above, 1t says that / went to
the Clerk and asked for my CON-
mission and was told that it had
not come, and that l should not
expect Democratic Governor to
commission me, and that l then
recanted ; this is a misstatement
and false, for / never asked the
Clerk anything about my commits
sion until the 18th of June, he gave
it to me, and l was qualified by
him then and there. Then the next
l hear is that some of my Demo
cratic friends are telling it around
| in ward 5, that / had denounced
the Populist party and declared
that / would have nothing more
| to do with such a party, this is Q
lie of the deepest dye. l told the
party when / signed the denial o,
my signing the Resolutions, that
was Populist and expected to re-
main one.
In answer to ward 5, in the Pop
ulist of the 10th inst, would say
| that if i am the person referred
to, did not take any oath mor'
than the regular oath of Office a
laid down in the statutory laws
and took that the 18th inst. Som'
of the Democrats are making O.

military purposes; truces and flags Of
truce; the provision of proper hospitals
and hospital supplies, and services tc

REFORMISTS KAYE RESIGNED.

Several Members of the Central Com
mittee Refuse to Act.
HAVANA, Jan. 3O.-Several members
of the central committee of the Reform
list party have resigned. 1t is estimated
that about 1000 persons belonging to
Sabanilla have fled from that town to
Matanzas. The insurgents have plum.
dered the stores in the village Of Cidra,
and have attacked Guiera Macurikes,
south of Sabanilla. The garrison, how
ever, repulsed the enemy. whose attack
was twice renewed. The insurgents
suffered sever loss, retreated five miles
and then reconcentrated their forces.

HE HAD A VALID LIEN.
An Interesting Decision by the Supreme
Court OF south Dakota

An Interesting rec,sion by the Supreme
Court Of south DAKOTA.
PIERRE, ). D., Jan. 30.-The supreme
cour handed down Il decision which
will be OF special interest to con
tractors, til" ollie of the case being
kehoe VS.. Hanson. The case came up
from Edmunu; county. and is one in
which Hanson, under contract,
hauled the material which was used
in the construction of buildings by Ke-
hoe. The circuit court decided that
Hanson was not entitled to a lien on
the buildings for labor performed. The
supreme court, in al opinion written by
Presiding Judge Corson. reverses the
action of the lower court and holds
that Hanson is entitled to a lien, and
that the lien law Of the state covers the
hauling of material for the construction
Of buildings, as well as for any other
labor performed.
