HARRISON county Democrats de-
clare strongly for the free, unlimited
and independent coinage of both
gold and silver at the existing, ratio
OF 10 to l. Wood county Democrats
follow with demand for the resto-
ration of the coinage laws as they
stood prior to 1873. Berkeley coun-
TVS Democracy, on the contrary,
declares for gold, and sends gold
delegation to the Delegate conven-
ton at Davis.

says that Senator Faulkner will
probably be appointed General Coun.

his purpose to retire from political

such an appointment would be an

probably be made. John w. Ma,

Virginia Resolutions.

The following is the declaI ration of
the Virginia Democracy, made last
week, in convention at Staunton:
We are for sound mOney--thc
soundest that the world has ever had
or can have; the money Of our con-
stitution, the money of the people,
the money of civilization through
ages past and destined to be such, as
we believe, for ages 10 come. 1t can
not be that this great nation, the
foremost Of the earth in riches and
power, is unable to frame financial
system of its own, and while we
should welcome an international
agreement that would settle the
VeXed question, we are unwilling to
defer action or make the interest of
our own people dependent upon the
course of others. We hold to the use
| of both gold aid silver as the stan
dard money Of the country, and to
the coinage Of both gold and silver
without discrimination against either
metal or charge for mintage. The
immediate and complete restoration
of the bimetallic system of money
which existed in the United States
from 1892 until 1873 is, in our opin.
ion, demanded by the interests OF
commerce, manufactures and agri-
culture, which are alike suffering
from the continuous fall ofprices and
the consequent embarrassment or
bankruptcy of those engaged therein
And in order so to restore it, we de-
mand the free and unlimited coinage
of both gold and silver at the ratio
OF l6 to l, without waiting for the
assent or concurrence of any other
nation.
This sound money should consist
of silver and gold, and OF paper re.
deemable in silver at the option OF
the payOr, the unit of the whole mass
ofmetallic money to be kept at parity
by equal coinage rights and equal le-
legal tender functions--the only
method by which the parity of the
two metals has ever been continu-
ously and successfully maintained.
We warn our country that unless
silver be upheld as money of redemp-
ton, and sustained at parity with
gold by equal privileges at the mint
and by equal legal tender functions,
the further contraction of the cur
rency circulation will be inevitable.
We have 81 less per capita circula.
ton now than we had in November.
1898, when the Sherman law was re-
pealed, and in the present strained
condition of our resources the deficit
of revenue and the fall of prices,
such further contraction of money
and accumulation of debt would
paralyze business, lower prices and
bring upon the country widespread
panic and ruin.

BOB MCELDowNEY says: The Re.

the mamma falls copiously. The
camp-meeting is on, and the McKin-
ley Faith Cure" is the doctrine of
salvation. Platt may talk and Clark
son may figure, but Mark Hanna will
give the increase. The day of rea-
son in the Republican party is past

THE MONROE DEMOCRACY.-The
Democrats Of Monroe county held a
convention at Union last week and
appointed the delegates from the
county to the various party conven-
tions to be held this summer. Strong
resolutions were passed endorsing
Judge Campbell for reelection and
demanding the free, unlimited and
independent coinage of gold and sill
yer at the old ratio of 16 to l. The
delegates from the county to the
State convention were also instructed
to vote for Col. John M. Rowan for
denomination as State Treasurer
So far we have heard of no opposi-
ton to Col. Rowan, and as he has
made very efficient and satisfac-
tory treasurer it is more than proba-
BILE that his name will be again placed
upon the party's ticket.

Toilet Hints.

If ones complexion is muddy" sal low or covered with blackheads. the lotion bottle is not the remedy which should be sought first. Instead, the candidate for complexion of roses and cream should begin 10 diet Hot water taken half an hour before breakfast with little lemon juice in it is better than creams to restore the skin to clear ness. Graham and whole wheat bread, fruit, clear tea and coffee, if tea and coffee are used plenty of green veee- tables, lean meat and broiled fish form an admirable complexion diet. Pastry and candies should be avoided. After diet and exercises have paved the way for other treatment, a weekly face steaming may be tried. The woman whose purse does not permit her to goto the professional beautifers should fill bowl with boiling water. Over this she should hold her face, into which cold cream has been rubbed, for ten minutes or so, covering her head and shoulders and the bowl with a heavy Turkish towel. After drying the face she should rub more cold cream into it, and she should not venture out into the air for at aeast three hours.-Bostop Budget.

 A doctor knows that certain remedies affect certain diseases.
 When disease seems to have no remedy the doctors pronounce 1t incurable. All the time Nature may have the remedy right at hand but it will only be discovered by the doctor who has studied longer and deeper than others into this particular disease.
 Consumption seemed for long time with out a remedy, until Dr. Pierce made his wonderful Golden Medical Discover" 20 years ago. It has proved to be marvellous and almost unfailing specific for consump- ton and all forms of lung, bronchial and throat difficulties.
 Its effects seem almost magical but ifs op- eration is based upon simple natural laws. the blood-making glands to manufacture healthy, red blood and pour it abundantly into the circulation. This nourishing, vital- izing effect is rapidly manifested in the lungs and bronchial tubes where 1t stops the wasting process and builds up healthy tissue.
