SOME OF THE POLITICAL SAINTS

The character of the men who are
leading the Democratic bolt does not
inspire the confidence of the best ele-
ment of the boilers. General Palmer,
who is way and beyond all others the
best man in the outfit, is q constitu-
tional bolter, and is never HAPPY ex-
cept when jumping from one party to
the other, owing his election in 1891
to the Senate TO Populist support.
General Bragg lis not ftted by tenn
permanent" whatever of infrmitY that
expression may cover, to quote gold
organ, to lead. Billy breckenridge is
moral leper, whose immoralities
drove him out of politics. These and
Bynum, of Indiana, are the men who
declare that their political convictions
and consciences force them to bolt the
party. What about Bynum? Let Mr..
O'Brien Moore, writing from Washing
ton to the st. Louis Republic, tell the
manner of man he is:
"Bynums connection with the move
ment gave it a black eye. He is not
in good repute. He sells too cheap. In
the famous contest for the Speakership
of the Ffty-second Congress, Bynum
was one of Mr.. Mills confidential man
ayers, yet soon after the twentieth
ballot Bynum opened communication
with Mr.. Crisp's managers, and prom
ised to vote for Crisp thereafter if he
would be taken care OF when the COM
mittees were made. He desired to re-
tain his place on the Ways and Means
Committee. To the eternal honor OF
Mr. Catchings and Judge ontgomery,
Crisp's managers, they declined to
have anything to do with him. In the
Fifty third Congress, Bynum was on
the Ways and Means Committee, under
the craftsmanship of VIM. T.. Wilson.
The tariff bill had passed the House,
and was under consideration in the
| Senate. Bynum went to the Senate end
and had the duty on every interest in
| his district increased 10 per cent. In
| the protracted fight between the House
and Senate, when the bin was in con-
ference. Bynum turned his back on his
colleagues of the House Ways and
Means Committee, and supported the
Senate.
william l.. Wilson is one of the
most forgning Of men, yet when
Charles H. Mansur died and Bynum
came on here to try to get appointed TO
the vacant Assistant ComPtrollership,
and asked William l.. to help him, MAX
ing an awful calamity howl and a pitt
able plea of poverty, Wilson told him
bluntly that he would not help him.

THE GOLD PAPERS DODGE.

xcribers under the following head line;

Answers on Silver and Other Issues"
It's correspondent frequently drive the
naner to the wall; but wit'ha the deter
mination of the gold papers generally
IT will not confess any proposition or
fact which injuries the gold argument.
This is well illustrated by the follow
ing question and the answer OF the
World published in its issue Of the
21st:
us it true that the relative pro-
duction of gold and silver from
1873 to 1896 is exactly 1919 to in
ounces? Can you give figures?
New York, Angst IS"
THE figures from 1871 to 1875,
given by Secretary Carlisle in his
recent pamphlet, show production
of lac. 539, s75 ounces of gold and
e2,513.9S4,119 ounces of silver.-Ed-
World).
To give the figures asked for would
answer the chief arguments of the
goldbugs Hence it is not done. They
contend that oyerproduction of silver
has been the cause of its low price, and
not adverse legislation. Why can't
these goldbugs admit the truth that
the production of silver and gold from
1873 to 1896 has been just about the
present ratio of is to j, and that adj
verse legislation. and not overproduc-
tion. is the cause of the 200 cent dollar?
Another correspondent asks this
question::
"Will you be kinde enough to tell
as what may be done to relieve the
people from the terrible strain
under which we are laboring? The

This is the answer of the greatest of
the Wall street opponents:
WAS there ever more prosperity,
Il all things considered, than during
the twelve years after resumption
of specie (gold) payments-1s79 TO
1890? So far as relief from present
conditions is concerned, it certain

Ed. World.
If the period from 1879 to 1890 was
the prosperous period suggested by the
World, what has happened since that
time to change prosperity into adver-
sity? First, the passage OF the make
shift Sherman bill, then it's repeal, for
the first time since the resumption of
specie payments reducing the coun-
try to an absolute gold basis. Nothing
else in our financial legislation.
Now, what relief do they propose?
In the language of the st. Louis plat
form, 1.-THE existing gold standard must
be preserved" All they can say is that
free silver will not relieve, but they of
fer no remedy. That there can be no
prosperity until there is change is a
self evident proposition.

A POPULBST VIEW.
4 Suggested Way Out of the Yice-Pres-
idential Middle.

State Senator Westmoreland, of Da-
wilson county, a prominent Popuilst,
makes the following suggestion in this
weeks editioh1of hispspef, tAessple)aavid-
son County = ews:
I'VE believefit will be best for Bryan
and best for the Peoples party, II an
arrangement is made between the Bry-
an Democratic and the Popuhst Ma
stibnaf committee to have but one
BRYAN electoral ticket in each State,
the electors to vote for Sewall and
Watson in proportion to the Demo
cratic and PopuIist vote cast for their
State tickets at the coming November
election, so that the fight between
Sewall and Watson could be made ON,
square issue.
A vote for the Populist State ticket
would mean a vote for Watson, aud
vote for the Democratic State ticket
would mean vote for Sewall. Here
would be an issue that would keep the
Populist distinct from the Democratic
party. and it would materially help
BRYAN. The same candidates for Presi-
Dental electors would be on both
tickets, and every vote cast for them,
whether on the Populist or Democratic
ticket, would be for Bryan. For in
stance, if in North Carolina there were
105 900 Democratic votes and $4,000
Populist votes polled, each elector
would receive 900 votes; the cleo
tors, if elected, would all vote for
Bryan, and would divide their vote
as between Sewall and Watson in pro-
portion to the strength of the two par
ties as hown by the vote on the State
ticket If some such arrangement is
not made. the Bryan vote may be di-
yided If North Carolina continues to
have two sets of Bryan electors, the
Mckinley electors may be chosen. AS
Populists desire their votes all to count
for Watson, and are utterly opposed to
voting for Sewall, many of them may
refuse to vote at all for electors rather
than have their votes count against
Watson. Let it be SO arranged by the
National committees that there will be
a race upon merit between Watson and
Sewall, then the Populists will roll up
a mighty vote which will be counted
for Bryan and Watson.

WIDE TIRES FOR WAGONS.

The Introduction of broad tires upon
all farm wagons and carts adapted for
heavy draughlt purposes alone, would
do much to improve roads, since half
the trouble seems TO arise from heavy
loads carting over country roads ait
seasons of the year when the ground is
SOFT At Tuxedo, where all drauglht wa
CONS are prohibited an entry unless fur
niShed with broad tired Wheels the
tremendous advantage over the ordi-
mary tires has been plainly proved, for
there, even when the roads are Yoftest
and at their worst, they never cut up
through the constant carting of heavy
loads of brick, stone or lumber over
them; for the tires, by being so broad
that they cannot cut in, and hence
track in the same place, act somewhat
like rollers in keeping the roads hard
and smooth, So much might be accom-
plished in this way if every one living
in the country, when buying a farm
wagon or cart, would not only make
a point OF getting one with broad tires,
but would at the same time exert his
influence to that effect with his friends
and neighbors For could the merit of
these tires as road improvers once be-
come known throughout the country,
public spirit alone would cause their
use to become general, and much OF the
present trouble arising from the deep,
rutty condition of the roads would cease
as II by magic.-General Roy Stone.
