country to whom the nation owes q
greater debt than the sound money
democrats" If that be so, then the
nation is indebted to no body, for if
there be one thing plainer'than another,
it is the fact that the sound money
democrats have too much sense to be
bothered about the color of the curren-

man wants unsound money, and that
no matter what dollar be made of, as
long as it is legal tender for all public

wages of American labor have not been
advanced nor has the demand for that

CUTTING AFFRAY.-The election at Mar

unusual circumstances, but about o'clock
Tuesday night serious alteration took
place, in which Clay Utterback was cut by q
young man named Baker Holmes. Early in
the day Utterback asked Holmes for payment
of shop rent due to the amount of dollar or
two, which was declined, and quarrel en-
sued at the time, but toward night Holmes
is said to have threatened that he was going
to whip him. Accordingly, he provided him
self with two switches for the purpose, and
when Utter back went To the postoffice about
o'clock Holmes lay in wait for him outside
IN the dark and attacked Utterback on the
way home. Instead of using the switches,
however he opened the assault with knife.

face, inllicting wound four and half inches
long and TO the bone, from an inch to an inch
and s-half deep, and from the back of the
neck. just under the ear, to the cheek. sever.
ing the temporal artery. The doctors who
! dressed the wound said that the same cut
made half inch lower must have resulted
fatally within few minutes, but as it is, the
injury, while serious is not necessarily fatal.
The whole community is highly incensed at
| this unp1ovoked attack on an old and high
| " esteemed citizen, and it would not be sur
prising if it should, by common impulse,
wreak summary vengeance on the perpetrator
of the assault
