he has gone, and I know his purpose.
From the first have seen through your
evil designs / can read your purpose as
/ do the stars on cloudless night. But
your efforts shall come to naught. When
success seems to you most certain, L
will come, and will bring him with me
whom you have long accounted dead,
and you will melt before the lightning
of his vengeance. Plan and plot and lie
during the short time that is left you.
The day is nearing when the dead who
have been long sleeping shall rise,
when the fugitive shall come from his
hiding place and stand before the world,
a free, white souled man.
That's all very fine broke i'll Sim
Bliss, "but don't understand it, and l
doubt if you do. Go your way and l
shall go mine. There is no good reason
why our life paths should cross.
"If you understood, you would see
that our life paths must cross, and at
one of those crossings yours will end. l
shall go my way, for you and your
friends have given me work to do, and
l cannot tarry or rest till that work is
accomplished. Let those Of you who are
not wholly lost turn before it is too late.
Forsake your evil ways and your COM
panions or you will one and all go down
in the storm that is soon to burst on
your heads.
The Prophet waved his right arm,
and with his long rifle in the hollow Ot
his left he strobe away nor bestowed
one backward glance ON the astonished
outlaws. He went directly TO the place
where he had left Black Eagle and hi:
braves besieging Louis Kyle's herder'
in the canyon. SO suddenly and unex
pectedly did he appear in their mids
that they were as much alarmed as i
they had seen the dead rising befor,
their eyes. Going over to where Blacl
Eagle stood with averted face, th'
Prophet asked:
"Where is Louis Kyle?"

SENATOR laLKINs.
In 1894 He Was For Silver; In
1906 He is Opposed to 1t.


We suppose that the editor of
the State Gazette will brand this
extract taken from Senator EIkin's
speech delivered June 10Th, 1894,
before the State League of Repub-
lican Clubs, as falsehood, or will
construe it to mean gold speech,
as it did Hon. Jas. Ct. Blaine's
speech:
Here it is anyhow, deny or not
deny, dear Gazette. Mr.. Elkins on
that occasion said:
"The President, followed by that
section of the party, the gold mon
ometalists, who advocate gold
basis, which means increasing the
debts of the debtor classes and de-
creasing the value of property,
seized upon the pretext that the
Sherman act was thecause of panic
and trouble, and declared its repeal
would restore prosperity,
But in all this there was great
wrong done; it was the crime
against silver The President and
the gold monometalists who follow
him in attempting to account for
the panic under false pretenses,
discredited silver at home and
abroad, and dealt it the worst blow
it ever had, and, although England
and Germany are now moving for
bimetalism and the larger use of
silver, the President romans silent
and sends no representative of our
government to cooperate in this
movement
"Silver is the money of the con
stitution as much as gold; the peo-
pie will have silver for money and
fight for it, and the contest will not
end until it has it's proper place in
the monetary system of the coun-
try.
to permit values to be measured
by gold alone, the production of
which is relatively diminishing i'll
the world This would make mon
ey dearer and property cheaper
Silver should be used as we'll as
gold and the parity between both
maintained. The time will come
when the silver in the treasury will
perform the functions of money as
of old, and the trouble will be
that there is not too much of it,
but too little"

Too much rain.

SILVER MEETING.
a Large Audience ant the Court
House Last Night.

a Large Audiences ant the Court
House Last Night,
From Fridays Daily
Every seat in the court room was
filled last night with ladies' and
gentlemen, who had turned out to
listen to a speech from our elo-
quent fellow-townsman, Hon. JAS.
b. Menager, on the silver question,
Prof w. j. Kenny was made
Chairman of the meeting, and
Hon. Walter Pendleton, of Roane
county, our next Congressman. be-
ing present, was introduced to the
audience by Prof. Kenny, and in a
ten minutes speech enthused the
audience, and was heartily applaud
ed. He excused himself from
talking longer as he did not desire
to trespass upon the time of Mr..
Menager, and for the reason also
that he was accidentally in town,
and did not come to make aspeeoh,
but promised he would be here
again and address the people.
Prof, Kenny then introduced
Mr., Menager, who was greeted
with a long and continued ovation.
Mr.. Menager spoke for something
over an hour, in n mastery and
eloquent manner, in an unanswer
able argument, in favor of the res
toration of silver as amoney metal,
and showing the great crime that
was perpetrated upon the people
in 1878 by John Sherman and
other Republicans in demonetiz-
ing silver. He backed up all his
propositions by Republican testi-
mony, and proved conclusively
that there was no hope for the
farmer and the workingman, unless
silver was restored to the position
it held prior to 1873, and appealed
to the oppressed to take the ques-
ton under consideration and study
it we'll, and to forget their partis-
anism, remembering that this
question of free coinage was not a
party question, but question that
went deep down into the hearts of
every man who loves his family,
his neighbor and his country. 1t
was a question of patriotism.
His was one of the best speeches
that has ever been delivered in the
Court House, and no one was ever
applauded more or had more en-
thusiastic and apprectative audi
ence, than had Mr., Meuager.
We 1egret that we are unable to
give synopsis of his speech this
morning.

New YORK, Aug. 5.-Rev. DR..

of the country.
"During my entire trip" he said,

The unanimity was astounding.
The sentiment down South is uni
versally for the white metal. Bry-
an and Sewall will get a very large
vote from that section of tho coun-

success of that movement the coun-

he continued, 81 believe that if
the silver people win there will be

booming in industries, which are
now inactive, and such general
shaking up of commercial interests
that the country will be sure to

AMUSING Arguments.

Just now one of the anus
ing arguments used by the gold
bugs against Mr.. Bryan is his
youth. In the meantime they for
get that Thos. Jefferson was only
33 years old when he wrote the De
claration of Independence; that
Madison was only 40 when he and
Alexander Hamilton wrote and
published the "Federalist," which
is said to be the greatest treaties on
political science that has ever ap-
peared in the world. That John
Marshall was only 80 when APP
pointed Attorney General by
Washington; that Patrick Henry
was but 80 when he made the
speech that first made him famous;
that Jas. Monroe was only 29when
he was sent to Congress; that Hen
ry Clay was only 80 when he was
sent to the United States Senate,
and John Randolph was only %
when in 1900 he was the leader in
the House of Representatives, and
SO on ad. iatnitum. 1t seems to
me that this is the poorest argu-
ment that can be used by the gold
bugs against the young and great
Bryan, of Nebraska, the leader of
the free silyerites.

.Mm. Jcnntngs BrNnm,

One of the greatest and purest
statesmen the United States has
ever produced, will, we predict, be
triumphantly elected President of
the grondest nation on earth on the
3rd day of next November. The
blood of the Simon pure Democrats
and the true free silver men of the
other political parties "run cold
and their hair stands on end" to
speak, when the great name of that
honest champion of the rights of
the people, Vim. j. Bryan, ismen-
toned.
The sturdy old farmer, the me-
chanic, the axe-man, the miner, the
laborer, the young and the old, the
true and the brave, the weak and
the strong are battling for the
great principles advocated by the
Great Bryan, the man who is do
ing more to down the oppressors of
the farmer and the laborer than
any other man on the American
continent. He is the Jefferson of
today.
Away with your Whitneys, Coch-
rams, Shermans and McKinleys; up
with the Brynns, the Tellers, the
Blackburns and the Blands, whose
hearts are close TO the common
people, and who are dealing sledge
hammer blows against the million-
aire oppressors of labor
The name of Vim. Jennings
Bryan will sound so grand on the
waters of the Hudson on the 18th
day of August as grand as the
Bells of Shandon on the waters of
the river Lee.
Representative Meredith, of Vir-
ginia, says of his State: "It is all
one way in Virginia. A large
number of Republicans and all of
the Populists are going to support
the Democratic ticket, which will
carry the State by big majority.
There will be no large detection of
gold Democrats from the ticket,
and for every bolter there will be
two acquisitions from the Repub-
licans."
Wonder if there won't be a great
scattering of thu gold bugs in and
around Wall Street when VIM.
Jennings Bryan jumps on to them
rough shod with his forceable, elo-
quent and patriotic tongue, in Mad
ison Square Gardon on the 18th of
this month. He will. so to speak,
hardly leave hide, hair nor feath-
ers of the golden calf.
The Republican headquarters
will be held in the rooms just across
the hall from this Office.

a CoInnnotion.

Tuesday afternoon there was a
remarkable disturbance of the wa
ters of the IIanawha river, near its
mouth, and supposed to have been
caused by large fish. Capt. Ed.
Burnside, who was an eye witness,
reports that about the centre of the
river opposite the landing, the wa
ter begun to boil and bubble, then
it shot up in the air several feet
followed by dirt and dead leaves
usual to the bottom of the river,
then an immense object looking
like large log came to the surface,
turned over and sank out of sight.
1t is supposed by several who wit
messed it that it was n mammoth
fish that came up from the lower
waters during the high waters we
have had this season.
