and grateful, but sinful man.
Since my last to the REGISTER, I at
tended church at Goodland, and was
very much edited by hearing an excel
lent sermon delivered by Rev. John &.
Adams. The text from which he spoke
was, The wages of sin is death, but
the gift of God is eternal life, through
Jesus Christ our Lord" l have heard
that subject handled many times be-
fore, but not with such a logical pre-
ciseness. Surely, Bro. Adams must
have a prediction for ministerial
work, for it has been observed that
those who are engaged in a work, for
which they have no liking, simply for
the money there is in it, are. as rule,
miserable failures, to say the least.
We now have too many of that kind of
professional men. The effects that fol-
low are leading more people from the
paths of rectitude than one would sup
pose, who has not given the subject in
question considerable thought.

osopher of the old Pythagorean type.
Recently Monroe Croker, who had
been suffering with consumption for
more than a year past, died, and was
buried in the cemetery near Foote,
Mo. Not many years ago Monroe was
pupil of the writer's, and proved
himself to be a kind, good-hearted boy,
whose kind, courteous manners very
much endeared him to me. Being a
true Christian, he was very much re-
signed to the will of the Master, and
expressed himself as being perfectly
willing to try the realities of that
great future, unknown to us.

Senator Vests Answer.
TO SENATOR VEST.

Ed. Reqister-Senator Vest declares
that he is not ready to leave the DEM
ocratic party. even if it declare for
gold standard at Chicago. We want
to know this: II the Sedalia Conven-
ton and the Chicago Convention both
declare for the gold standard, and we
return Senator Vest to the Senate. will
he then also advocate and vote for a
gold standard, and cease his efforts to
restore silver to its place as redemp-
ton money? Or, if the Sedalia Con-
vention endorse the free coinage of
silver and the Chicago the gold stand
ard, will he then advocate the gold
standard in the halls of Congress? A
little light is wanted here. 1t will
help us to make up our ticket for rep
resentative. L. M. WAGNER.
WASHINGTON, d. c., March 20.
My attention has just been called to
the above communication in the IRON
COUNTY REGISTER of the 10Th instant.
The writer knows very little of me,
as is made evident by his questions.
lam sincerely and unreservedly for
the free coinage of silver as redemp-
ton money, and no convention could
compel me to advocate the single gold
standard or vote for it in the Senate.
If the Chicago Convention declares
against free coinage l shall not quit
the party. but will remain Democrat,
hoping that majority of the party
may be brought in the future to my
opinion. 1 will not assist in destroy
ing the Democratic party SO that the
Republicans may have undisputed con-
troll, and the single gold standard be
fastened upon the country for all time.
As to my action in the Senate, it can
only be controlled, outside of my own
judgment, by instructions from the
State Legislature of Missouri. l be-
lieve in the right of instruction, ex-
cept where the senator thinks the pro-
posed legislation unconstitutional. and
in that event he cannot commit perjury
even if instructed by those who have
elected him. If the Legislature of
Missouri should instruct me to vote
for the single gold standard 1 would
resign, and permit them to elect a SEN
ator in accord with their opinions.
Where no constitutional question is
involved, hold that a senator should
obey instructions or resign, but these
instructions must come from the Leg
islature of his State, not from a con-
vention.
If the Chicago Convention declares
against free coinage shall not defend
its action, nor will / leave the party.
1 am too old to hunt another political
home, and 1 will die as I have lived.
q true Democrat.
No intelligent man expects to have
all he desires in public or private mat
tiers. and no patriotic citizen will as
sist in destroying an organization with
whose general objects and principles
he sympathizes, because the majority
decides against him on one issue.
Conventions and leaders may blum
der, but the Democratic party is the
party of personal liberty, equal rights,
and popular government. The old
ship may sometimes be steered out OF
Its course. or sprink leak; but, for
one. shall not jump overheard while
enough Of it floats to carry the flag of
Jefferson and jackson.
