One of General Palmer's Orders.

Frankfort, KY; September u
General Palmer, the National Demo
cratic nominee for President, was
military Governor of kentucky in
1865. Just before the August cleo
ton of that year he issued an order,
which if it could have been endorsed,
would have practically disfranchised
nearly every democrat or Southern
sympathizers in the State. Divested
of preamble it reads
"Ffrst-All rebel soldiers, whether
pardoned or not, and without regard
is the fact that they have or have
not taken any of the oaths as pre-
scribed by law, or executive or mill
tary orders. or have registered under
orders from headquarters of the de
partment of Kentucky.
"Second-All guerrillas and others
who, without belonging to the regu-
lar rebel military organization, have
taken up arms against the Govern
ment, or have in any way operated
against the government or people OF
Kentucky, or any other State or Ter
ritory.
"Third-All persons who, by act
or word, directly or Indirectly, gave
aid, comfort or encouragement to
persons in rebellion. This applies to
all persons who have voluntarily
acted as scouts or spies for rebel or
guerrilla forces, who have voluntarily
furnished any rebel with food or
clothing, horse or arms or money, or
have harbored, concealed or other
wise aided or encouraged them.
"Fourth-All persons who were or
have been directly or indirectly en-
gagged in the civil service of the late
so -called provisional government of
or who have in any way
to either of said pretended
all agents of or con-
tractors with or for either of said
pretended governments are dlsquali-
fed from voting.
"All persons of the classes afore
said are required to abstain from all
with elections, and will,
if they shall in any manner interfere
therein by voting or by appearing at
the polls, will be at once arrested and
held for military trial.
aid will be given to civil authori-
ties to enforce the laws and to pre-
serve the peace.

John NJ. PALMER.

The letter of Mr.. Bryan accepting
the Presidential nomination made
by the Chicago Convention has been
given to the public. 1t is an inter
esting document, and unqualifiedly
endorses every plank of the plat
form. In it, he reiterates his inten
ton, not to be candidate for Presi-
dent again if elected this time. u
wish to enter the Office" says Mr..
Bryan, "if elected, free from any
personal desire, except the desire TO
prove worthy of the confidence of
my countrymen. Human judgment
is fallible enough when unbiased by
selfish considerations, and in order
that may not be tempted to use the
patronage of an office to advance
any personal ambition, I hereby an
nounce, with all the emphasis which
words can express, my fixed determi-
nation not to, under any circum-
stances, be candidate for reelection
in case the campaign results in my
election" 1t is too lengthy for pub
LEGATION, but some idea of its merit
can be obtained from what he has
to say about bonds and trusts.
Bonds issues, he says, are entirely
without excuse and the policy that
has been pursued in redeeming
treasury notes in gold alone, in his
opinion, leaves the Government at
the mercy of those who find pecuniary
profit in bond issues. The fact
says he, that the dealers in money
and securities have been able to
deplete the treasury according to
their changing whims shows how
dangerous it is to permit them to ex-
ercise controlling influence over
the Treasury Department"
On the subject of trusts, Mr..
Bryan declares. that "the demo-
cratic party would be recreant to its
duty to the people of the country if
it should recognize either the moral
or the legal right of these aggrega-
tions of wealth to stifle competition,
bankrupt rivals and then prey upon
society. "-"Corporations," he says,
''are the creatures of law, and they
must not be permitted to pass from
under the control of the power which
created them; they are permitted to
exist upon the theory that they ad
vance the public veal, and they must
not be allowed to use their powers
for the public injury"

National Democratic Ticket
For President:
WILLIAM J. BRYAN,
of Nebraska.
For Vice. President:
ARTHUR SEWALL,
of Maine.
For Congress:
WIN. A. JONES

The gold-bugs have held their con
vention in Indianapolis and with al
their airs of superior honor and
honesty have fooled nobody. They,
as was expected, nominated candi'
dates for president and vice-presi'
dent, which they neither expect OF
desire to be elected, denounced all
democrats who favor the nominees
of the regular democratic convention,
adopted a platform favoring only the
single gold standard, which no con-
ventiop whatever its political com
plexion has ever done before, and
adjourned - willing, doubtless, to
assemble again in convention if they
have left undone anything which the
money sharks of the country would
have them do. 1t was a great con-
vention, if the importance OF the
delegates composing it could be ac-
cepted at the estimate which they
place upon themselves. 1t was con-
vention with lofty ideas of morality.
Billy Breckenridge was its chief
spokesman and his standard OF
morality is well known to the people
of this country. 1t was grand demo
cratic convention and its slogan,
vote for the nominees of it if there
by the election of Mckinley can be
best promoted if not vote straight
for Mckinley" ought to prove it..
Democratic of course, it was if
democracy and republicanism mean
one and the same thing. Democrats
of the South, at least, are expected to
vote for the ticket named by that
convention. 1t matters not to them,
of course, that Gen. Palmer was will
ing Immediately after the war ito
disfranchise every democrat or
Southern sympathiser." The gold
standard must be upheld, if we have
to kiss every hand that smites US,
say the boilers. Democrats of Vir-
ginia, what say you?

strength when $4,000 people turn out
