The Only War

At the manufacturers convention in
Chicago was read telegram to the follow
ing effect: "Let our only war with England
be commercial one, with a flying squad
ron of our manufacturers in every foreign
market" A good policy, and one that the
Democratic party recommended and pro-
NOTED by past legislation. when it gave our
manufacturers free raw materials and en-
abled them to compete with Europe in the
markets of the world. AS we noied the
other day, the German manufacturers have
already raised the cry of alarm at the in
vasion of their territory by their American
competitors. Albuquerque Democrat. !.

OZark star.
 Last Monday morning certain young man in Ozark happened to drop into a millinery store, where a most beautiful young lady was talking pleasantly with some friends, and he Joined in the con Versation. He finally proposed to the young lady that they get married imme- diately. which she agreed to do. They in- vited the friends present to accompany them to the court house, where the cere- mony would be solemnized by Judge Nor ris. The young man of course thought that the young lady would back out when she saw that he would go to the court house. Not so, however. She was de- termined to see him out, which she did.
 The probate office was entered, where they found the judge in one of his most solemn moods. The groom stated that he wished a license, still thinking that the young lady would back out. The license was written out and the judge arose. ask ing them to stand up in front of him. When this request was made the groom tainted, which caused quite a sensation Restoratives were procured and adminis- tered. and as soon as the young man re- covered he grabbed his hat and made for his boarding house post haste. The young lady stood like hero through the entire proceedings. never displaying the least fear, and was by no means abashed at the termination. The young man is still in very nervous condition and admits himself that he was frightened bad.

Your reporter has been unable to ferrett out the great secret in store for the Clayton men on the 3rd.

Clayton will carry the county by 2700 majority. There will be heavy vote boiled. The negroes will turn out in full force, and as the leaders of that party are largely for Clayton it would not surprise your correspondent if the county did not roll up at least 5000 majority for him. Bullock county citizens do not care to parade their standing be- fore the public, but it is a great source of pleasure to them to know that the battles for democracy in her borders are so easi- ly fought and won Here we have no struggles, all is harmonious. and with the exception of a few sour, past defeated, always-want-office but-never-getting- them would-be leaders or bust, the ma chine -bolters, there would not be a ripple among us.

Senator Milner and Judge Montgomery Dispense Democratic Doctrine.

Newcastle, Oct. 30.-(Special Correspon- dence)-At an early hour last night @ large number of the citizens of beat 22, without reference to previous political af- filiations or creeds, met here to hear the cause of the peoples rights discussed by Judge Montgomery of Birmingham and Senator John r. Milner.
 Judge Montgomery began the discus sion with a clear and concise history of the legislation of the money question, tracing 1t from the demonetization of sil- yer in 1873 to the repeal of the Sherman law, which deprived about 5000 to our volume of money per month. in 1893. He then traced the policy established by the republican party of paying the coin obll- gationS of the government in gold, under the Harrison administration, and then showed that the Cleveland administra- ton continued this republican policy, very much against the hopes and expec- tatiOnS of the party eleVating him to power; then that under this unfortunate condition predicted by MT. Dan Manning, when secretary of the treasury, came to pass, viz, that the government would be forced to issue bonds to maintain the gold reserve if all coin obligations were paid in gold. MT. Montgomery showed that to get the money necessary to pay taxes the taxpayer has to give almost twice as much products of the farm and factory now as he did formerly; that money and gold had about doubled in value. The speech was well received by our people.
 Senator Miner though covered with more than seventy years and the scars of a thousand battles fought in the cause of democracy, with the strength of youth and the vigor of manhood laid down the true laws of the democratic party, con- tending that it is the party of the masses and the hope of liberty. He said that the gold standard had not brought us pros perity, but on the contrary the disasters that have .borns so heavily on the produc- ing classes were traceable to it's adoption. Earnestly he pleaded for the men to stand together and vote for Bryan and Underwood.
 l. This beat can safely be placed in the Underwood column.
