The people are beginning to study
the financial question and the result is
just what currency reformers has
worked for during the past twenty
years. Old party lines are breaking
up and the people begin to see how
skillfulIy they have been deceived. +.

People of a certain political party
should remember that big promises
were made four years ago. They were
not kept. If"promises" made now are
not believed, nobody is to blame but
that same certain" political party.

The old parties are slow about some
things. -Four years ago the Peoples
Party asked how John Sherman, on 2
salary of $4,000, as Representative and
Senator, for about twenty-five years
could accumulate three millions of
dollars. The Pops have exposed
the schemes by which such thing
could be done, but by the great Hon
Spoon! the Democrats have just be-
gun to ask this question and Ia admit
that there are such schemes.

DITORIAL COM I'M EMF.

The Charlotte Observer says edi-
torially of the Peoples Party State
convention that it was managed with
wisdom and its nominees judiciously
chosen, and closes with the following:
"Maj. w. A. Guthrie, the candidate
for Governor, is man of ability, of
unblemished character, and of charm
ing personal qualities. His popular
ity is as universal as his acquaintance
ship, and somehow, though he has be-
longed to all parties, and to some of
them several different times, his vault
ing has no effect upon public conf
dence in his sincerity and integrity.
The nomination of Col. Oliver H.
Dockery for Lieutenant Governor was
a particularly wise one. 1t is just being
learned that he has abandoned the Re-
publican party and is HOpulist. The
newness Of his conversion will lose
him no Populist votes and he can be
depended upon to draw off a consider
able amount of the anti-Russell Re-
publican strength. This nomination
is direct stab for Russell and indi-
rectly, perhaps,it means no good to
Senator Pritchard. 1t is a fair con-
clusiOn that in the event of the success
of the ticket. Col. DOckery will sue
coed to either to the GovernOrship or
the western SenatOrship.
"The nomination by the Populists Of
practically, full State ticket would
indicate three-cOrnered fight, though
nothing can be prOphecied with safety
as to this. Russell may come down
and Populist-Re fusion ar.
rangement be effected. This is not al
all improbable. Whatever else may
happen, however, it can be counted
upon that all of the candidates who
have been nominated in North Caro-
lima this year there is one who will
stick, and that one is Guthrie"

The Manufacturer, published by the
Manufacturers Club at Philadelphia,
has been all along strong advocate
of silver. Last week the editor, Mr..
Charles Herbert Clark, was kicked
out because he refused to change the
policy to gold. There are some men
left who cannot be bought, but If they
happen to be employed by gold men
they have to walk the planks.

CONGRESSIONAL.
TO POPUIISJS.


The campaign is on. A campaign
is something that will not run itself.
Somebody must run it, and that
somebody must have something to
run it with. Now the Peoples Party
must look to the PEOPLE for its aid
and support. There are no corpora
tons, combines, banks, trusts, syn
dicates or protected monopolies for
it to draw upon. The work of the
Peoples Party is for the people, and
the people must help do that work.
Funds are needed for the necessary
printing and general direction and
conduct of the campaign. Money is
neither needed nor wanted for any
other purpose. But where is what
is needed to come fromg 1t must
come from YOU. You are interest
cd. You must contribute enough to
pay for some postage-to pay for
some circular announcement-to
help pay the expenses of some of the
speakers who cannot pay expenses
of travelling. If YOU, the people,
do not look after the matter AT ONCE,
the campaign will be necessarily
crippled in force, and you Will have
the modification of seeing it lag and
look weak and ineffective. Are you
willing to see thisi If not make
your contribution, no matter how
small, AT ONCE. Be as liberal a.
you can with justice to yourself ant
loyalty to our needs. Address Ha

The relations between England
and Germany are very much strain
ed. Emperor William declares
omphatically that he will not rec
ognlze the English claim of suzer-
anity over the Transvaal republic.
The war feeling in England is
reported to be very strong, and
there is talk of expelling the
Kaiser from all English clubs.
Such action would precipitate war.
The German army is undeniably
the strongest and the best disciplin-
ed army in Europe. Germany is
spelling for fight, and if war
comes she will give the British
lion a terrible shaking up.

A CHEMICAL process of purifying
drinking water has been worked
out by NJ. Allan, who does it with
iodine and carbon. One part of
iodine in 100000 of water, at the
end of a quarter of an hour, will
free the water from bacilli. The
iodine is then neturalized with
sodium hyposulphite. The water
is then filtered through char
coal, though, if it was fairly pure
to begin with, the precaution is
useless. The water is limpid,
colorless and tasteless.

There are ten or u dozen mines in the

ply 1000 tons of ore daily for milling
purposes. At present, despite the decis-

of the camp is seriously handicapped.

signed them praying Attorney General
Harmon to come to the rescue of this

character, at the summit of the Rocky
mountains, west of Helery's Lako, Idaho,
and at point bordering the boundary
between that state and Montana. The
length of the river from its source to the

Marl.inE for La BELLE.

The Trinidad-La Belle committee WAS
at work yesterday afternoon again and
like the previous day met with excellent
success. The business men of the city
are subscribing readily and literally and
the committee now feel that the desired
$1,000 will be raised without the least
urging on their part. Our citizens are
awaking to their great opportunity in
this matter and are willing to back up
their hopes with dollars. Some people
are forever grumbling about Trinidad
conservatism and inactivity but when it
comes to the point we're right in line.
Mr. Holloway yesterday received word
from Supt Sparks, of the Western Union
Telegraph company, that if Trinidad
would raise $500 his company would put
in a telegraph line from Catskill or to
La Belle. The committee have decided to
make an effort to raise the extra amount.
A telegraph line is one of the most urgent
needs of the great mp.-Trinidad Ad-
