taken at the close of the war. This
debt reminds me of The widows cruise Of
oil-the more you draw the more you
may draw. / repeat, can some sound
money man tell me how long it will take
to pay off these bonds at the ratio at
which we have been paying them off?
Now, Mr.. Editor, was told by some
sound money man while in your CT " a
few days ago that the cotton planter of
the south was in much better condition
than the wheat grower OF the west, and,
therefore, he ought to be satisfied. Com
parsons are idious, but sometimes they
'point m raj or adorn tale" If the
condition of these producing classes is
just as represented, if we have all the
advantages over the western farmer
that it is claimed we have, should it
not arouse our sympathy? Or should
we take comfort in the fact that their
condition is worse than ours? Is it real
ly true that "mlsery loves cempany?''
Some of my best and truest friends be-
long to the goldbug variety. Some of
them are members of the church and say
"grace." Now, what want to ask is
this: do they ever think of the hard con-
ditiOn of those who furnish bread so
cheaply to the bond holder while thew
are engaged in this act Of gratitude to
God? w, OUAIIEs

UNDUE HASTE.

Taylor and Tom Delk, the bad citi-
zens of Pike county, have been SEN
| fenced to be hung on June 18th. The
News has no sympathy for these men or
the crimes they are accused Of, but 1t
appears to this paper that they were
given mighty little showing to look
after the safety of their necks. They
were hustled off from the Atlanta jail
to Zebulon and put on trial without
being given an opportunity to employ
counsel. And while making some re-
marks during the trial Judge Beck
spoke of one of the men as Tom Wool
fork. Criminals should be punished
promptly, but there should be no I'M
due haste upon the part Of the court
to condemn to death q poor devil with
out friends or money, DR.. Ryder, a
young man of social prominence ana
influential friends, committed q more
hein00s crime some months ago than
that of the Delks and his trial has
been continued until next September;
and it is freely predicted that he will
never be sentenced to death. The
man of prominence and the Outcast
should be treated alike at the bar of
justice, and when they have trans
crossed the laws punishment should
be meted out to both promptly and
firmly; not, however, without giving
them aG opportunity to prepare their
defense,

MR. TURNER'S HUME COUNTY, MOBILES.

There is great connection in tbe
camps of the single gold standafdists
at the home of Congressman Turner.
His friends have discovered a good deal
of genuine Old-fashianed democracy
right in Quitman, and are now fearful
that Brooks county will go for silver.
The Quitman Free Press sounds the
note of alarm and summons the gold
bugs Of that bailiwick to action in the
following:
GA lot of free silver agitatOrs right
here in Quitman have conspired with
each other to stab Captain II. G. Turn
er and turn the county over to the free
silver agitators. The Free Press be-
lieyes in sound money and Captain
Turner, and feels that Brooks county
would be disgraced for a whole gener-
alton to have the cOncOcted conspiracy
of the sllverites carried out. 1t puts
people on notice that there is danger
unless they come out and do their du.
ty. Let every sound money democrat
in the county be at the meeting anC
do his duty"
Old-time democracy is indeed march
ing on to victory, and Mr.. Turner will
yet have to part company with tn
people of his county and district or re
turn to the principles of Jefferson.

The Eufaula Times, having digested
the dish of crow served it by the demo-
Gratis of its own state and county, is
again showing an inclination to med
die in the second district campaign.
1t doesn't like it because the silver
folks over here are getting together
with Judge Griggs as their standard
bearer, and is pleased to observe that
"the same crowd who took Jesse Wal
ters down may be expected to take down
Judge Bower in a few days" The
Times is right for once to marked de-
gree. These same boys will take the
good Judge down on the 18th of July
with a unanimIty and a zeal that
will be far from comforting to our sim
gle standard brethren. Like Alabama,
the second Georgia district is demo-
cratic this year.

The Atlanta Journal, with seeming

Chairman Clay, is on foot to have a
compromise platform on the currency

The people on both sides of this ques-

A RIGHTEOUS VETO.

President Cleveland has vetoed the
rivers and harbors appropriation bill.
There are All items of appropriation
in the bill, and every part of the cOun-
try appears to be represented in the
distribution of its favors. The con-
gressmen seem to have gotten together
and agreed upon all the appropriations
wanted by their respective cOnstitu-
ents, and many of the appropriations
appear to be more for the benefit of
private interests than for the public
good.
The president calls attention to the
fact that startling feature of the bill
is its authorization of contracts for
river and harbOr work amounting to
$4,000, 600, which, with other apprO-
priations of like chararter, would swell
the expediture for rivers and harbors
alone to about $SO,OOO,0OO. This veto
message of President Cleveland will be
approved by the country.

Let All Give Thanks.


WASHINGTON, Nov. 4.-The Presi-
dent to-day issued the following
Thanksgiving prOclamation:
1.-The people of the United States
should never be unmindful of the
gratitude they owe the God of nations
for his watchful care which has
shielded them from dire disaster and
pointed out to them the way of peace
and happiness; nor should they ever
refuse to acknowledge with contrite
hearts their proneness to turn away
from Gods teachings and to follow
with sinful pride after their own de-
vices.
ITO the end that these thoughts
may be quickened, it is fitting that,
on day especially appointed, we
should join together. in approaching
the throne of grace with praise and
supplication.
Therefore, /, Grover Cleveland,
President of the United States, do
hereby designate and set apart Thurs
day, the twenty sixth day of the pre-
sent month of November, to be kept
and observed as day of thanksgiv-
ing and prayer throughout our land.
son that day let all our people
foregO their usual work and Occupa-
ton, and, assembled in their accus-
toned places of worship, let them
with one accord render thanks to the
ruler of the universe for our preserva-
ton as a nation and our deliverance
from every threatened danger, for the
peace that has dwelt within our
disease and pestilence during the year
that has passed, for the plenteOus re-
wards that have followed the labors
of our huSbandmen, and for all the
other blessings that have been vouch-
safed to us.
And let us, through the mediation
of Him who has taught us how to
pray, implore the forgiveness of our
sins and a continuation of heavenly
favor. Let us not forget on this day
of Thanksgiving the poor and needy
and by deeds of charity let our offer
ings of praise be made more accept
able in the sight of our Lord.
Witness my hand and seal of the
United States which have caused to
be hereto affixed.
Done at the city of Washington
this fourth day of November in the
year of our Lord 1896 and of the indie
pendence of the United States of
America the 121st.

The Defeat of AltgeId.

One of the happiest facts of the re-
suits is the defeat of Altgeld, the gov
ernor of Illinois, who was candidate
for reelection. His elevation to that
Office was largely an accident, and a
most disastrous one, for the people of
that great state. He prostituted his
authority by the pardon of the An
archists, by the defense of the rioters,
by the misuse of state funds, by the
practice of the worst politics and the
lowest principles.
The worst part of it was his ability,
his cunning, his persistence, all of
which threatened everything that
was orderly and good. His evil infu-
ence did more than anything else TO
turn the national convention of the
Democrats into an instrument for the
advocacy of free silver, free riot and
free reputation. His was the master
mind that dominated it's proceedings,
and he was the Mephistopheles that
stood behind Bryan in his campaign.
To defeat such a person is to defeat
an enemy of society, to tread upon
the head of a viper, that is all the
more dangerous because it has un-
doubted intelligence. The whole ma
ton will join in the joy that Illinois
must feel
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1896-11-05

This ratio of Republican gain las
been kept steadily up, and if it con-
tinues will give the State to Mckinley
by over 10000.
With such a heavy Republican vote
over the State the Republicans have
probably all the congressional candi-
dates, though there are doubts about
Salzer in the fourth district, Trace
well in the third and Lands in the
ninth. There is little doubt that
Johnson is reelected in the sixth. The
Republicans will have majority in
the legislature which the Republican
managers place at ~ on joint ballot.
Marion county will probably give a
Republican majority of 1000, which
is a big increase over the last vote.
