lisky. Four small children were res

II years old. The youngest is only two
years Old When Mrs Kalisky was
awakened she realized the great danger.
Her room was filled with smoke, while
firm below came ominious sounds OF
cracking flames She sprang from her
bed and called her eldest son, Burwick.

boy understood that time WAS precious

Ny friends, there is one way of tax
ing the government out of the clutches
of those who have been bleeding it. 1t
Is for the government to resume It's le-
gal rights and use its silver or Its gold
whenever it pleases, whenever it has a
a dollar to pay.
do not want to be called extreme,
but | want to state my position with
such emphasis that it will not be mis-
taken. l believe that the American
people have right to have the treasury
department administered in behalf of
all the people, instead of in behalf of
Eyndicates, foreign or domestic. In
stead ef permitting the financiers of
Wall street to call before them the off
cials Of the government and to tell them
what they must do, believe that the
time has come when the officials of the
government must call the financiers be
fore them and tell them what they must
do and make them do it.
If this government is not greater than
the bankers of Wall street, il is no gov
eminent at all. five once concede that
We must purchase from them the right
20 exist, how do we know how much
they may charge US for letting us live?

The New York Sun a paper that is
geo orally as well posted and makes
about as correct political calculations as
any paper in the country and is now ia
vorsble to the election of Mckinley, in
speaking of the rump Democratic con-
vention that was held in Indianapolis
on Wednesday says:
ffThose sound-money Democrats who
believe that the nomination of a third
ticket will draw more votes from BRYAN
than it will Withhold from Mckinley
have their convention tomorrow in In
dianapolis. The plain truth about this
movement is that in some parts of the
Union it will promote the election of
Mckinley, while in other parts it will
help Bryan. Whether the gain all
around will be greater than the loss, is
something which no human being can
foretell. The question cannot be an
swered authoritatively until the morn
ing of Nov. 4. Opinions differ widely,
and everybody is entitled to his opin-
ion.''

Baud of Horse Thieves.

Irwin, August p Farmers and
stocknowners in this part OF the county
have finally realized there Is an organ
lied band OF horse thieves at work and
they have engaged detectives To run the
band to earth. During the summer nu-
merous horses have been stolen. The
men and animals in most instances
were traced to near McKeesport, where
they disappeared.
During the past three weeks three
horses have been stolen here and in the
adjoining townships. One was from
superintendent Humphries, of Irwin.
and one from James brennan, of near
Apollo The former got on the trail of
the thieves and it became too hot. so
the animal was tnrned loose at Hermin-
ie. The last animal stolen belonged to
Samuel Gilbert, living three miles from
here. This animal was traced to Nc
Keesport. The farmers this week raised
several hundred dollars, and now three
officers are still ont on the hunt.

Stole a Little Girls Hair,

Trenton, n. j., August 3O.-The hair
OF Freda Kline, aged thirteen, living on
GREENWOOD avenue, was shorn from her
head by two ruffians while passing over
the rairood bridge but a square from
the Pennsylvania Railroad station last
night. Freda was sent to the bakery by
her mother and was accompanied by a
girl companion Of about her own age.
On their return the children were stopped
by two men who were hiding in a
foundry doorway. Fredna's compan-
ion fled and the ruffians seized the child
and cut off her two braids Search was
made, but no trace of tie thieves could
be found.

IT liz eminently appropriate that the
Republican party. hneally descended
from the old Federalists, should declare
for the single gold standard and the cen
tralized monetary depotism it creates.
With one-half the metallic money of the
world destroyed and the remainder un
der the control of a few capitalists, the
malgn prediction of Hamilton that the
people could not govern themselves and
that only monarchical government
could be permanent would be realized
The great leaders of the Democratic
party were opposed to Capitalization in
every form, and especially to that of
banks and syndicates. They believed
that the government should create
money, and not national corporations,
which would inevitably use their enor-
nous privileges for selfish and mercena-
ry purposes.
The rank and fiie Of the Democratic
party yet follow the teaching of these
illustrious men and distrust those who.
under the deceptive plea for sound
money, would diminish the volume of
circulation and give additional purchas-
ing power to gold.
OThe masses of our people are true 10
the principles upon which the govern
ment was founded-equaIity in burdens
and benefits-and in the coming con-
fiict will not be false to their convictions.

Persecuted a Sf0rekeeper.

Braddock, Pa, August 30-An as
tonishiug persecution at Wolfton has
come to light. John Rist is store
keeper. Last night he was held up and
dangerously shot in the side and thigh
by unknown men. The same night his
residence was burned to the ground, the
fire being OF incendIary origin. Ii was
also d iscoyered that Rist's horses had
been killed in their stalls by cutting their
thrOats. Rist was alone at the time he
was shot and can give no reason for
this and his other misfortunes. Some
days ago, on returning to his home, he
found note warning him to leave the
country or take the consequences, and
the above events are supposed TO be the
result. No explanation is offered.

OS our local page will be found the
proceedings of the Democratic county
convention, held in this place on Mon
day. While there may be some disap-
pointments, as there always will be at
tending all political gatherings, the
work of the convention taken as a whole
stands out prominently as the work of
men anxious to perform their duties
faithfully and well, without any dicta-
ton, and for the best interests of the
party they represent, and the people
whom the candidates nominated, if
elected, will serve.
We invite our Republican brethren 10
stand the Democratic county ticket up
alongside of their own and If there is
anything in the mode of nomination. in
the standing of any of the candidates IN
the communities in which they live that
invites or repels the support of any can
didate, on either ticket, to cast their
vote at the election for the candidates
that will require no apology to their
conscience for the act.
The Democratic candidates are men
of sterling worth and without blemish.
We invite strict scrutiny of their re-
cords knowing that the inspection will but
add to their popularity. At some future
time we will refer more fully to the per-
CDnel of the ticket.
