In the vicinity of Boquet, westmore-
land county, Pa, almost any one can
tell you how to cure lame back or stiff
neck. They dampen a piece Of flannel
with Chamberlain's Pain Balm and bind
it to the affected parts and in one or two
days the trouble has disappeared. This
same treatment will probably cure pain
in the side or chest. Mr.. f. NJ. Frye, a
prominent merchant of Boquet, speaks
very highly of Pain Balm, and his recon-
mendations have had much to do with
making it popular there. For sale by

THE FACTS.

Morgan county being one of the first to act, and some criticism of the action of the committee being heard the State Herald gives the exact facts.
 There are twenty-two members of inc democratic county executive committee of Morgan. At their meeting there were eighteen precincts represented, all by the members of the committee excep. two represented by proxy. MT. A. F. Murray, member from New Decatur offered a resolution that the precincts be called and each member be requested to state what the people of his precinct wished, and to state what he believed to be the best plan to strengthen the party. This was done and each member advocated conservative plan and that cordial invitation should be extended to those who had struggled from the party. Each one stated the number this course would bring back in his beat. This number ranged from five to fifty to the precinct. After this recess was had for an hour. and the members talked the matter over and came back and passed this resolution unanimously by a rising vote:
 The committee was called to order, af- ter which the following resolution was introduced by J. A. Rountree and adopt cd by a rising vote, every member of the committee voting for the same:
 Resolved, That all men who desire to vote with the democratic party and who believe in democratic form of gov ernment are hereby invited to participate in the primary election and convention who will pledge themselves to support the nominees of the party in said pri- mary election and convention"

THE CAFFERY LETTER.

The president in his letter to Senator Caffery. expresses surprise that even par tisanship should have believed that there was any secret arrangement as to an issue of bonds on the Statements of a "maliclousy mendacious and sensational newspaper"
 The New York World was evidently aimed at, but the World very neatly turns the arrow from its shield. It quotes the Evening Post of December 20, which said:
 There is now no reasonable doubt that another issue has been fully agreed upon and that the details of a contract with a syndicate of which MT. J. Pierpont Nor gan is the head have been arranged so that nothing remains to be done to carry it into effect but for the secretary of the treasury to sign his name thereto"
 It quotes the Tribune of December 26 which said that "J Pierpont Morgan was in Washington Tuesday in consultation with President Cleveland"
 It quotes also the Herald, which said on December 23 that the administration has been in consultation with some of the Belmont-M Morgan syndicate" and on December 24 that Secretary Lamonts recent visit to New York was for the express purpose of sounding leading banks and bankers of that city" and on December 25 that "J. Pierpont Morgan reached Washington early this (Decem1 Der 2D morning and saw the president T. and further that "the visit indicated that the president feels it incumbent on himte self to anticipate the failure of congress- to provide needed relief" .,nl
 In view of the doubt as to what paper the president was describing as "malR ciously mendacious," we suggest that he may have had reference to the Montgom- cry Advertisers ..-, ,o

Gubernator1al.

Up to this date no goldbug candidate for gubernatorial honors has entered the field against Hon. Joseph H. Johnston of Birmingham. None of the distin- guished gentlemen who have been men, toned in connection with this exalted po- sition seem desirous of becoming sac- rifice upon a golden altar. No doubt some fellow will be urged into the fight. but it is Joe Johnston this time. He is one of the scared veterans of the war, and has long been-a Nestor in our politi- cal councils. He is citizen without re- proach, a democrat without guile, bus mess man crowned with success-a man whose heart is true and head is clear. Let him be nominated without opposi- ton if possible; but with 1t if necessary Southern Idea.

The bill 10 establish ''the University of the United States" which is now before congress, demands consideration wheth- CT it may merit approval or not, in virtue of its sponsorship. It is a case where one sponsor Is not enough, and while it is well understood that Ex-Governor Hoyt of Kansas is the originator of the scheme (which was presented to the United States senate in. 1S92), there are 100 sponsors cited in an "authorized Iistpr of 'the national university committee of 10O," now accompanying the draft of the bill sent to various newspapers.

Will Not Run Counter.

We most assuredly believe that our Birmingham contemporary is correct in it's natural surmse that the state execu- tive committee will not attempt to pre- scribe party membership not laid down by the national committee. If so, endless confusion, if nothing worse, would prob ably ensue. Unless the great democratic masses are permitted to participate in the party primaries we could with but a poor grace urge them to stand with us next August. But we do not participate any trouble; the members of the state ex- ecutive committee are men of common sense and loyalty to the people. They are not going to misrepresent the wishes of their people and stultify themselves by drawing proscriptive deadline that would shut out the voters who, after all, must do the electing Argus, Administration

A Recent Convert.

Above we publish the address of Hon. R. H. Clarke. MT. Clarke is strong man intellectually, as no one will deny, and was for a number of years a practicing attorney and resident of this place, where he laid his foundation for fame and fortune. MT. Clarke was elected to congress in 1888 to succeed the late J. T. Jones, where he has served ever since.
 He is one of the recent converts to the Cleveland-Sherman policy of the single gold standard, and a more recent con- vert to the policy of Cleveland bond message for the destruction of green backs and placing our money at the mercy of the national bankers. It will be seen that no words of harmony fall from his pen. It means that Cleveland bond issue must be upheld where the moneyed syndicate made millions at the peoples expense. It means that the prin- ciples of Andrew Jackson, as enunciated against national banks, must be rele- gated to the rear as an unworthy doc Urine to be fostered by a free government. It means that poor old Thomas Jefferson, the father of democracy, must be repudi- ated by his children. One would natural iy ask our reasons. Our answer will be that the principles of Jackson and Jef- ferson were in opposition to national banks, while those of Cleveland, Clarke and Sherman are for the perpetuity of those institutions. Men are nothing; principles are all. Clarke. as a man, we admire; but we do not think the princi- pies he advocates rebound to the best interests of our country. We believe that

A Plain Duty.


 That Captain Johnston, because of his free silver views, with which the News has not a particle of sympathy, can poll thousands of more votes than any sound money nominee for governor possibly could, becomes more and more apparent as the days go by. The first considera- ton with every loyal democrat this good year of our Lord is to win the fight next August. Victory is paramount to any one issue, especially if it be an issue not wholly in the control of Alabama demo- crats.
 The News submits to every candid and thoughtful sound money man in the par ty. if under an analysis of existing con ditions and popular dispositions, he does not agree with the News in believing that a free silver nominee can hold to his sup port larger number of voters than a sound money nominee. If you do agree, then your duty is plain-waive a single policy for assured party success.-Bir- mingham News.

The Entering Wedge.

The calamity foreseen and dreaded has fallen upon Alabama. The Advertiser and. Register, with their yelping follow CTS, have at last succeeded, by persua- sion and implied threats, in getting Rich- ard H. Clarke of Mobile to offer himself as a sacrifice on the altar of BaaI. It Is said that MT. Clarke is a gentleman learned in the law and is in other respects well educated. But. an educated man
 without common sense is not fitted to be governor of a great state like Alabama, nor to represent his state in the senate of the United States. From MT. Clarke's own pen we learn that he is still a can didate for the senate. And yet he has deliberately, after ample time for consid-

eration, suffered himself to be placed in direct opposition to a majority of the white voters of Alabama.
 The avowed purpose of the high priest of Baal is to defeat Capt. Joseph F. Johnston, a true and tried democrat, who has labored in season and out of season for the success of the democratic party and the best interests of the citizens of Alabama.
 How can MT. Clarke expect the friends of Captain Johnston to support him for any office? His ambition is to go to the senate, and he has consented to become cure the influence of that paper. If he had only a modicum of common sense he could but see that the citizens of Ala bama will not ratify this implied bargain and sale-Opelka News.

North Alabama Solid.

Congressman -Rfchard II! Clarke has formally announced his candidacy for the governorship of Alabama. As everybody knows, MT. Clarke is true blue goldbug
 and for that reason the majority of the democrats of northiAlabafna will support Capt Joseph Johnston. whose financial views are in accord with, their own and the principles of Thomas Jefferson We don't think that Captain Johnston need have any uneasfness on this score, as the people-the democratic people-don't see much difference in a goldbug demo- crat and a goldbug republican. They both cling to John Sherman's views on this great question, and we all know that old John is the bell-wether of the repub- lican party-North Alabamian.
