STEW ART ON GOLD.
Has Changed His Mind Since
He Became Possessed of
Silver Mines.

In a debate in congress in 1874 Senator Stewart said: Il do not care
how much you discuss 1t, or how many resolutions you pass, they do not
make any difference; you must come to the sam conclusion that all other
people have-that ro1I 10 recognized as the universal standard of value. It
is the measure b. which wealth nus be tested; and whether it be PEN
MES or millions matters not, it is thee measure that must test all wealth
On another occasion Senator Stewart said: THE question never will
be settled until you determine the simple question whether the laboring
man is entitled to have a good dollar If he earns Sit, or whether you are 60
ing II cheat him with something else"-Congressional Record, June IL,
1874. Page 4909.
The Congressional Record of 1874 contains the following from the
senator from Nevada:
Il want the standard gold. and no paper not redeemable lin gold"
About two weeks later N February 20, 1874, the same gentleman
said:
by this process we shall come to a specie basis, and when the labor
ing man receives a dollar It will have the purchasing power of a dollar,
and he will not be called upon to do what is impossible for him or thepro-
ducing classes to do. figure upon the exchanges. figure upon the fuotua-
lions, figure upon the gambling in New York; but he will know what his
money is worth. GOLD is THE UNIVERSAL STANDARD OF THE
WORLD. EVERYBODY KNOWS WHAT A DOLLAR IN GOLD IS
WORTH"
These III the words of Senator Stewart before he became simply the
representative of a special interest.

Hoe to Prevent Group.

Group is terror to young moth
ers and to post them concerning the
cause, first symptoms and treatment
is the object of this item. The or
igin OF Group Is common cold. Chill
dren who are subject to it take cold
very easy, and Group is almost sure
to follow. The first symptom IS
hoarseness; this is soon followed by
peculiar rough cough, which is
easily recognized and will never be
forgotten by one who has heard it.
The time to act is when the child
first becomes boarse. If Chamber
lain's Cough Remedy is freely given
all tendency to Group will disappear.
Even after the croupy cough has de-
veloped it will prevent the attack.
There is no danger in giving this
remedy for it contains nothing inju-
rious. For sale by B. Y. Hudson,

SECRETARY FRANCIS, men,
Der of the Cleveland cabinet,
voices the sentiments ofmany
thousands of like faith in the
following declaration:
"While / agree with the advo-
Gates of sound money in the fight
recently made, there are many prin-
{ Jles advocated by some of those
who have been advocates of that
cause to which / cannot subscribe.
If some legislation is not enacted to
check the growing influence of
wealth and circumscribe the powers
of the trusts and monopolies, there
will be an up .Ig of the people
before the cent rlo7os which will
endanger our institutions.
The combines and trusts
that have sprung up in this
country are the natural results
of the protective policy, to
which the republican parry is
committed. Under the 4ule
of that party, such evils have
strengthened and fourished
and are able to control to
some extent prices of various
commodities. The evil effect
of their power has been real
lied, and unless checked by
the strong arm of the law
instead of being fostered, less
er enterprises and indepen.
dent Institutions will be in
perilous conditions. The
defeat of the republican par.
ty, four years ago, was a pro.
test against class legislation,
and should be a warning tc
the leaders Of that party, in
the event of a continued pro.
tective policy favoring com.
bines and trusts.

No ADDOintment.

Robert B. Armour is still post
master at Memphis, his successor
not having yet been named by Pres
ident Cleveland.
1t was expected that Col. Hugh
Petit would receive notice of APP
pointment not later than noon to-day
but at that hour the situation re-
manned unchanged, and the Colonel
is still as much a private citizen as
he ever was. 1t, seems, too, that
there are others, or at least one
other Memphian, with postmaster
ship aspirations. The new candi-
date is Col. William harrington,
mention of whom was made in the
Scimitar's Washington dispatch of
yesterday. Col. Harrington is cred
tied with having the support of no
less distinguished a statesman than
Hon. Isham @. Harris. However,
as Col. Patterson favors the candi-
dacy of Col. H, III Petit, honors
are more than easy, This little
difference Of opinion as to the can
didates may delay an appointment,
and it is possible that matters may
rock along just as they are for some
time. The service given Memphi-
ans by those in charge of the post
office affairs at the present time, is
of the kind known as frst-class, so
there is no need for that reason of a
hurry in naming Mr.. Armour's sue
cessor.
The Postmaster General will not
accept Mr.. Armour's resignation
until his successor is agreed on.
That much is a certainty. The
present postmaster will, therefore,
remain in charge, at least in name,
until Uncles Josiah and Isham
agree, unless an indictment is re-
turned by the Federal grand jury.
Should the grand jury this after
noon return an Indictment against
Mr.. Armour and his arrest follow,
the appointment of his successor
would in all probability be made at
once. In that case the likes or dis
likes of either Congressman Patter-
son or Senator Harris would have
but little weight with the powers
that be, for it is not to be presumed
that the Office would be left to take
care of itself until Col. Patterson
and Mr.. Harris could agree. To
reach an agreement it might con-
sumo several months of time, and
in the meantime the Office here
would be in charge of a man under
Indictment-a condition that could |
not exist for any great length of |
.ime.-Memphis Scimitar, Wednes-
lay evening.
