At the republican goldbug county
convention. which was held in Bayne's

to the Territorial convention were
chosen: VIC. Wrigley, Joke Smith,

Only five precincts, viz: Springer,
Maxwell City, BIossburg and the two
Ration precincts, out of the twenty-one
precincts in the county, were repre-
sented. The cold drizzly weather
without, represented the enthusiasm of
che goldites assembled within except
in a lesser degree.
VIM. c. Wrigley was chosen chair
man and DR.. Hart secretary of the
convention. Mr.. Wrigley tried to
evoke some enthusiasm by warmly
eulog zing the St Louis gold bug plat
form, while the delegates were trying
hard to kindle the spark, it failed to
ignite in the chills and fever atmos-
phere, and each one looked the picture
of dumb ague. The martyrs to the
cause of the Rothschild's, Morgan's,
Belmont's, Guckenheimer's, Ikleheim-
er's, ct al, seemed to be heavily
weighed down with a presentiment of
their impending fate.

THE CHURCH IN POLITICS.

The political preachers are not doing any
good to the cause of politics, but they are
doing an infinite deal OF harm to the cause
of NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. Democrat.
The above was probably written not
as a result of sober thought, but be-
cause the writer conceived 1t to be
witty. We do mol see that it is either
humorous or true.
1t will be a glad day for this couptry
when the preachers take politics more
into their hands, for no great cause ever
achieved success without the moral
support of the people and this cannot
be brought about without the assistance
of the ministers of the gospel. Slavery
was a political issue for years, but
when the preachers took up the matter
it was brought to a speedy crisis.
1t is the duty of the ministers to edu-
cate the people in matters political as
we'll as moral and spiritual aud wien
they become to do more Of this and
take the affairs of the people from the
absolute control Of selfish politicians
the future Of this republic will become
brighter.

REPUBLiCANMoNEY PLANK, 800

We affirm that the demonetiza atom of sill
yer has not only reduced the value of tina
metal, but by increasing the PURCHASING
power of gold, has correspondingly de-,
pressed the value of all products and com
modities and increased the burden of all
debts, thus crushing the agricultural and
other producing classes, as well as the all
yer miners OF the country, and no perma-
nent return of general prosperity can he
expected until bi-metallism is re-estab-
lshed by the free and unlimited coinage
OF gold and silver, as it existed from tRe
iolndation OF the government to the year
1878, at the ratio of is to /, which we insist
shall be done without waiting for the CO.
operation OF any nation or nations. and we
call upon all opponents of silver to point
to any good that has come TO this corntrv
or the world at lerge by demonetizIng
silver.
We arraign Grover Cleveland az the
arch enemy of silver coinage. and the
cnlef supporter in this country of the
mono-metallic creditor class of Eurone:
Tor the corrupt use of the executive power
and patronage in coercipg the action Of
congress on the repeal of he Sherman
purchase act; and for the veto of the bill
to coin the government silver now living
useless IN the treasury, and we charge thai
the democratic party, while having s1-
preme power In the governm emit, has not
passed any measure whatever favorable 20
SILVER coinage, or to the lessening of the
burdens Of the people.
