e GOOD DEMOCRAT.
MIR. GaIlert Say He viii do Valiant Work
the Ticket.

To the Editor: Tn an article i'm to-
days News and Observer | notice the
following paragraph in reference to
me: Among those was Mr.. 5. Gallert
Of Rutherfordton, who said that the
Democrats in rutherford were by no
means ready to fuse with the Populists
in that county, which, by the bye. he
estimates to be only about 200. 1t is
but Justice to Mr.. Gallert to say that
some Of his friends put him down as
a gold bug"
I have nothing TO say in regard to
above quoted, but in regard to the
closing sentence / desire to say that
you do me a great injustice. No true
friend Of mine ever said that | would
not support the Bryan and SewalI tick
ct and every true friend of mine does
know that / am a Democrat and stand
firmly and squarely upon the Demo
cratic platform. If the rest of the
Democrats in the State will do the
kind and amount of work for the
Dcmocratic party that have been and
am now doing for that ticket, there
would not be the least fear of Demo
cratic defeat next November.
| trust that you will have sutff-
cient regard for righting this state
ment to give this card a
prominent position in your next issue
The Democrats of Rutherford county
know me too well to need this denial;
| simply make it for the benefit OF
my many friends elsewhere in the
State s. GALLERT.

WHAT CONSTITUTES \ FAMILY
MEDICINE?

4 preparation which is adapted to
the relief and cure of ailments to
which members of a household is most
subject, and which is not only alleged
to do this, but has long and unf1il-
ingly proved it's ability to do it, as
suredIy deserves the title Of a reliable
Family Medicine. Among time-hon-
ored preparations, which experience
and the sanction of the medical pro
fession indicate as deserving of popu-
lar regard and confidence, is Hostel
ter's Stomach Bitters, a medicine
adapted to the eradication of dyspep-
STA, constipation and biliousness, the
three most frequently occurring all
ments that veX mankind. Derived
from a botanic parentage, it is eff
cient as well as pure and wholesome.
1t relieves nervous disquietude and in
activity of the kidneys, and counter
acts a tendency to rheumatism. For
renewing tagging strength and inn
parting appetite it can be implicitly re-
lied upon. Fever and ague, rheuma-
tism and debility are remedied by it,

That
Il r..
Tired FEELING,

Makes you seem "all broken up" with"
out life, ambition, energy or Appetite
It is often the forerunner of serious lille
ness, or the accompaniment OF nervous
troubles. 1t is a positive proof of thin,
weak, impure blood; for, if the blood is
rich, red, vitalized and vigorous, it inn
parts life and energy to every nerve,
organ and tissue of the body. The
necessity of taking Hoods Sarsaparilla
for that tired feeling is therefore apparent
to every one, and the good it will do yoW
is equally beyond question. Remember

THIS IS no CAMPAIGN-IT is A
REVOLUTION.

There was never a political campaign
Xix the present. The reason is that we
are i'll the midst of a political revolu-
tion, and conditions have been evolved
that are new TO this generation Every
political convention that has been hed
this year, except the Populists, has
been attended by a bolt, and bofs
was prevented there by spirit of non
partisanship that is most remarkable
If the Populist convention had faiieo
to nominate Bryan there would nave
been a bolt. If it had named Sewail,
it. would likewise have caused a bolt.
Division was averted 10y policy alto
gether unprecedented.
The Prohibition party has two tex
cts in the field. one for silver and one
for gold. The boiling silver Republi-
cans have shown higher spirit of de-
voton to silver than any others have
manifested. in that they are not look
ing for permanent political honors or
pickines. but are for the free coinage
of silver regardless of party.
The gold boiling Democrats and Ike
publicans are working together to
defeat Bryan and the Democracy, haV-
ing buried past differences. The gold
Democrats will nominate ticket or
not, dependent altogether upon wheth-
er they decide the nomination of bolt
ing ticket or straight support
Of Mckinley viii contribute
most to the defeat of silver
With this almost perfect amal-
camation of the gold forces, self pres
ervation has caused a closer coming
together of 'the silver forces. The
nomination of Bryan at Chicago was
made as a step toward uniting the sill
YER forces. His nomination by the
Silver party was an acceptance OF the
tender of a candidate whose record APP
nealed to all advocates of free coinage.
His nomintion by the National Popu-
list convention made it certain that
if all three organizations worked mar
moniously Mr.. Bryan would be electd
President, and that the reign OF the
gold standard, falling prices and de-
preston will be at an end. The revo-
luton for the control of government
nv the masses is to determine whether
the people have the right and the ca
pacfty to govern, and whether they
have more patriotism than partisan
ship.

The New York Herald publishes res
ponses from four great labor iead-
ers. p. NJ. Arthur, President Brother
hood of Locomotive Engineers, VT. Is:
II am for Mckinley and the Re
publican platfonn. have no au
thority to speal, for the organiz1,
tiol."
NJ. NJ. Garland. Secretary of the
AmaIgamated Iron and Steel Workers,
says:
eve are entirely non-partisan
organization. We decline as indi-
viduals to give our preferences"
Mr.. James Duncan, General Secreta-
nv of the Granite Cutters National I'm
ron, writes:
individually l am for Bryan
and believe the sentiment of our
organization is for bi-metallism
as set forth in the Chicago plat
form"
Mr. Samuel Gompers, President Am
erican Federation of Labor, writes:
"The American Federation Of La
Dor always maintains neutral at
titude towards all political par
ties. It declares for measures in
the interest of labor without re-
gard to parties or men.
"At three successive conventions,
namely. Chicago, '93; Denver, "a,
and New York. '05. it declared for
free and unlimited coinage of silver
and gold at the ratio of 10 TO /,
without waiting for the aid or con-
sent of any other nation. The
sentiment Of men who have cor
responded with me has inyariabtY
been i'm concurrence with that de
cIaration. My loyalty to the de-
clared principles and policy of the
organized labor movement has
never yet been questioned"
These expressions show that of
these four great labor organizations,
three favor the declaration of the Chi
cago platform. Mr.. Arthur, of the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers,
is a lifelong Republican, but it is well
known that most of the members of
that great labor organization favor
the principles enunciated at Chicago.
In this campaign, in which Mark
Hannaism is arrayed against the in
terests of the masses, very few men
who earn their bread by the sweat
of their face will vote to enslave them
slave themselves and to close the doors
of opportunity to their children.

ILL CAUSE OF BITTERNESS
SHOULD BE REMOVED

Gen. Weaver, who went to Alabama
to help in the Populist campaign, de
clined to talk about the two candidates
for Nice-President, expressing the
opinion that Chairmen Jones and But
Ter will find way out" He added
should they fail the people viii
make short work of it, for they do
not intend to lose the present
splendid opportunity to secure re-
lief and to overthrow the gold
power.
Il trust the Populist and Demo-
cratic committees in this State
may at once reach an understand
ing concerning the management of
the approaching election. All cause
of bitterness between the two par
ties should be at once removed, as
it has been irrevocably determined
that we are TO be allies in the
greatest National conflict of the
century We must not be only
allies, but friends"
Gen. Viewers assurance that sit has
been irrevocably determined that we
(the Democrats and Populists) are TO
be allies in the greatest National con
fict of the century" furnishes addi-
tional proof, if any were needed, that
the State Democratic Executive com
mittee acted wisely in formally pro-
posing a division of the electoral ticket
in North Carolina between the parties
whose platforms commit them to the
free coinage Of silver. There is every
reason why the advocates of silver
should mot be only allies. but friends. -

FOR AN EXTENSION OF TRADE.

One of the leading cotton manutac-
turers in North Carolina is an earnest
advocate of the free coinage of silver,
as was the late Governor Holt, largely
because he believes it will open up new
and large markets for the product OF
our mills. In this connection the fol-
lowing from the London Financial
News. pronounced by the Washing
ton Post ''an authority on both sides
of the Atlantic'') is significant:
There is plain moral in the re-
mark that if the United States would
venture to cut herself adrift from Eu-
rope and take outright to silver she
would have all America and Asia at her
back and the command of the markets
of both countries. The barrier OF gold
would be more fatal than any barrier
of a custom house. The bond OF sill
yer would be stronger than any bond
of free trade There can be no doubt
about it that if the United States were
to adopt silver b3sis tomorrow Brl-
fish trade would be ruined before the
year was out Every American would
be protected, not only at home, but IN
every other market. Of course the
United States would suffer to Ger
tain extent abroad in gold, but the
loss of exchange under this head would
be mere drop in the bucket as COM
pared to the profit to be reaped from
the markets Of South America and
Asia, to say nothing of Europe. The
marvel is that the United States have
net long ago seized the opportunity
It has been a piece of luck that 1t mas
never occurred to the Americans to
scoop US out of the worlds markets
by going on a silver basis, and 1t
might serve us right if, irritated by
the contemplate apathy OF our gov
eminent toward the silver problem,
the Americans retal;ated by freezing
out gold. 1t could be easily done"
