bolt talk in the air. on the
one hand it is announced that
the goldbugs of the east will
not vote for a silver democrat
for president; and several of
our goldbug contemporaries
are asserting that the silver
men will bolt a gold nOmi-
nee.
This sort of talk ought not
to be indulged. Although
the south is overwhelmingly
for free silver, we feel sure
that after making the fight
inside the party the silver
democrats will give their
hearty support to the ticket,
no matter whether they like
lit or not. 1t is time that all
democrats should realize that
the, democratic party is big
ger than any issue. 1t has
gone wrong on some ques-
tions before and it may 60
wrong again, but the indi-
viduality and integrity of
the party must be preserved.
1t is a factor in American po-
litical life which cannot be
dispensed with.
Whatever may the result
of the financial battle, the
democratic party will con-
tlnue to represent certain
ideas without which the re-
public would be but a name.
1t has always stood for lndl-
vidualisln as against social
isnf: and it's mission is still

denotes which populism is so
iudustriously spreading and
in which republicanism is
timidly acqulescing. 1t has
represented from the first
the rights of tue many instead
of the interests of the few,
and it's future will be along
the lines marked out by the
past.
1t is against protection be-
cause that system places a
tax, estimated at a billion
dollars annually, upon the
American consumers, tor the
further enrichment OF a
handful of millionalres. 1t
has taken a bold S t a II d
against the federal election
laws framed by the republl-
can party because those laws
were but impliments tor the
use of a single party and
were designed to take the
machinery of election from
the people aud place it ex'
clusively in the hands of the
one party. 1t has consistent
ly fought the good hight ioF
free silver, because the de-
mand for the restoration OF
the white metal comes IRON
the people and is as honest
and legitimate as the demand
for more dry goods and more
wheat bread. The victory
scored by gold in 1873 was
the triumph of a few in Z
matter a bout which the peo
pie were without knowledge
or warning, The demand o.
the people for an expanded
currency is no more the cry
of fools and fanatics than Il
a demand from the same
source for more railroad ia
cilities or a greater ouput o.

on and I'll tell you why. The blue
heron is a big. powerful bird, which
has already badly disfigured the faces
OF several men. The men have wound
ed a bird and then, thinking to capture
II alive, they went up to IL. why, I'd
as soon try to kiss a wounded grizzly.
The birds grow as tall as six feet and
have necks like a fish rod and Just the
kind of muscles to move IL the quickest
with the most strength. They could
drive their bill points through a quar-
ter-inch panel.
The hunter goes up to the bird and
sees 1t lying there looking as innocent
as robin, with only a wing broken.
What fine pet 1t would make the
TOOL hunter thinks. Then he picks the
bird up and starts for home in a wagon
or boat, with the bird between his
knees. The birds neck is drawn back
like letter s. All of a sudden the
bill shoots up and gives the man a cash
alongside the eye three inches long.
That is what always has happened.
The wounded bird has missed its aim,
but sometimes, and when you want to
remember ii, this feathered spearman
will drive its bill far into an enemy's
eye, and like a steel umbrella stick the
point of the bill will penetrate the
mans brain. / guess the birds aim
has always been spoiled by the pain of
its wound, and so many a human life
has been saved. / don't monkey with
