Principles and Parties,

1t is eminently appropriate that the
Republican party, lineally descended
from the old Federalists, should declare
for the single gold standard and the
centralized monetary despotism it Gre.
ates. With one-half the metallic money
OF the world destroyed and the remain
der under the control of a few capital
lists, the malign prediction of Hamilton
that the people could not govern them
selves and that only a monarchical gov
eminent coald 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 mer-
cenary purposes.
The rank and file of the Democratic
party yet follow the teaching of these
illustriOus men and distrust those who,
under the deceptive plea for sound mon
ey, would diminish the volume of cir
culation and give additional purchas-
ing power to gold.
The masses of our people are true to
the principles upon which the govern
mentw vas founded-equality in burdens
and benefts-and in the coming con
f1ict will not be false to their convic-
tions.-Senator G. G. Vest.

A Serious Accident.

On Sunday last a small p arty consist
ing of Charles McGibbon and family and
Geo. McGibbon and wife took a team
and went out to Belt Park to spend the
day with Homer Thomas and family.
On the return trip darkness overlook
them and while travelling on the grade
just below town near the old Queen
power house, it appears just at this
part of the read that the near horse be-
came frightened at something and reared
and started running. Charles Nc
Gibbon who was driving did everything
to keep the team from going over the
grade and for IA distance of 40 or so feet
worked hard to control the near horse
of his team which continually crowded
the off horse. At last two side wheels
of the wagon went over the grade but
still the team might have been controlled
which Mr.. McGibbon was seated was
very much crowded and he being of
course ON the side where the cmbank-
ment was caused him to be thrown ont,
and the weight of his fall while still
holding onto tie lines of his team pulled
the team over and down the en-
bankment the wagon became upset
and the party and wagon went down
the embankment a distance of 1S feet.
Geo. McGibbon was not hurt nor little
Willie McGibbon but the ladies were
BRUSHED quite badly and also Charles
McGibbon was injured some. The
mount OF harm done could not be asc-
ertaincd until the party was taken to
their homes. 1t was at first feared that
the injuries might be year serious bun
on examination by DR.. Shaw no bones
were found broken Mrs. g.. McGibbon
sustained severe bruises and cuts about
the head. Under the doctors care they
are now improving as rapidly as can be
expected. The wonder is that some OF
the party was not killed.

After "a protracted discussion of the
money question for from ) to 20 years
we are going to have this autumn IA
thorough consideration of it purely on
its merits. 1t is the most important
financial question which the world has
ever had at stake. One thing is clear,
all sections and both parties believe that
silver should be Teinstated as a full
money metal, i'll order to diminish the
increasing demand which was thrown
upon gold. Gold is just AS much subject
TO the memorable law of demand and
supply as any other product of human
labor. When, therefore, the civilized
world diminished the demand for silver
by characterization, it necessarily in
creased the demand for gold, and gold
is steadily rising in value through be-
ing itself the measure. Its enhanced
value is shown i'll the falling prices of
all other goods. The result is a depres-
sion of business which lasted for many
years, and from which there is no es-
cape in the future until the apprecia-
ton of gold is stopped by the reinstatc-
ment of silver as Il money metal.-Rob-
ert Treat Paine in Boston Globe.

tunity by joining Immediately. On
Tuesday night there was given Il public
installation in A. Q. U. W. hall of the
new officers. This was Il very impressive
ceremony and the ladies in the new re-
gala made very fine appearance. At

to perfection considering the short time
they had for rehearsal. After which II
fine luncheon was served by the lady
Maccabccs to their friends. During the
time Of refreshments Mrs. Giffcls and

this morning and cracked the safe with
dy mantle. A sledge hammer was taken
from the blacksmith shop Of Lauritz
Nielsen and this was used to knock the
handle off the safe door. This done en-
plosivcs were placed inside the door
which resulted in SCATTERING it. An IRON
drawer which contained some notes and
certificates were taken but these will be
of NJ use to the robbers. Neighbours
heard an unusual noise like the slamm-
ing of II door between four and five
o'clock this morning and it ir probable
the burglars were at work at this time,
There was no money in the safe. The
papers were found near the Central track
