Civil Strife.

Ready for Bloodshed and Anxious for
Civil Strife.
II feel moro like singing the Mar
seillaise, missed out Senator Pettigrew
at the silver hall last nigh t, than
making people laugh" And here are
four lines from the Marseillaise which
Senator Pettigrew felt like singing:
To arms, to arms, ye braves.
The avonging sword unSheath;
March on, march on, all hearts resolved
On Victory or Death!
This sentiment amazed and startled
the big audience, Only a little later
the senator burst forth with the follow
ing:
cannot be settled at the ballot box, they
must be settled by bloOdshed."
Discussing the question Of pensions,
and the argument of the sound money
men that If the purchasing power of
the dollar was decreased, 1t would In
effect cut in two the pensions paid the
old soldier, the senator admitted this,
but declared it was y question of white
slavery. The senator added:
"The man who says to q %pensiOner
that the dollar he receives from the
government under free coinage will
not buy az much as the present dollar
ought to be answered with q blow"
Speaking Of the discOntinuance of
silver coinage in 1871. the speaker ex-
planned that 1.-THE conspirators did not
dare to domonetize silver all at once,
for If they had done 90 their heads
would have followed that OF Charles l."
The hall was crowded to the doors
by people who had assembled to hear
an argument on the money question.
Before the meeting was called to order
copies OF the Chicago Evening Dis
patch, the only free silver paper in
Chicago, we're distributed through the
hall. The editor Of this paper, by the
way, 10 now In Jail for sending obscene

Speaking Of Senator John II. Thurs
ton, his confere Ia the senate, and one
Of the brainiest members Of that body,
Mi. Pettigrew said:

The senator thus spoke Of the 81.

Pertinent Expressions.


Senator Pettigrew on Kyle's record
in the senate.
kyle and every other populist SEN
ator except PETER voted against con-
tanning the reciprocity provisions Of
the Mckinley law, under which the
duty on flour was reduced by Cuba from
$3.50 to 81 a barrel.
kyle ana all the populists but Keffer
voted against proposed amendments to
the Mckinley bill placing a duty on
hay Of % per ton; 6 cents q pound on
butter: S6 per ton On broom corn, 3
cents a dozen on eggs; 20 cents adushel
ON buckwheat; ID cents on oats: 10 cents
on rye; Is cents on corn; 3-5 of q cent
q pound on flour, and l CEN on oatmeal.
The same senators voted against a duty
Of 40 cents q bushel on beans, but In
favor Of 70 cents on rice. These pro-
posed amendments wOu d have restOr-
ed the Mckinley rate on tdese articles
under whsch the market for Sc, OOO 600
worth of farm produce was taken away
from Canada farmers and given to the
formers OF the United States.
kyle lodged q vote to place a duty
Of Is cents q pound on hops to increase
the dnty on ale. porter and beer, and to
increase the duty on brandy. He also
voted against q duty o! $40 her head en-
cattle, $3.50 on sheep and hogs, and $50
on horses.
ION q direct vote to place sugar IN
the free list, Kyle aud all the p0pulist
senators, except PETER, voted no."
VIM. Mckinley: 1.-THE republican
party stands for honest money and the
chance to earn it is by honest toll"
r. F. Pettigrew in his speech at
FiOux Falls, February 10, l896.-"If /
had my way | would demenetize gold,
l would refuse il the power OF legal ten
der. = = But you say the gold
would all leave the country. ! hope IL
would. That is just what l want"
II. L. Louks: Free silver is not and
will not 10 q panacea for all our Ills.
1t is only a step in the right direction.
The populists will never stop at free
silver. That will not help us much, and
we want other things, and / favor free
silver only because it is one step to-
wards the paper money"
Abraham Lincoln: THAT some may
be rich shows that others may become
rich, and hence Is just encouragement
to industry and enterprise. Let not
him whe is homeless pull down the
house of another, but labor diligently
and build one for himself, SO thus, by
example, assuring that his own shall be
safe from violence when built.
I don't know what you think about 1t
but I think it is q good deal better to
open the mills of the United States to
the labor of America than to open the
mints of the United States to the silver
Of the world.-Major Mckinley at Can
ton, August IL, 1893.
Tom Watson: Dressing Billy Bryan
up in populist raiment makes Billy an
attractive figure to our admiring gaze;
but as long as he remains mixed in
with the scrub sheep OF the democratic
flock, We are much inclined so say to
him in the language OF the ancient n
ecdote. I'VE love you Billy, but d-n
your company"
II they conld give us free silver when
the party was united on 1t, how can
they give it to US now when the party
is divided or 1t?

Chicago, Oct. 24.-The PairpOnt
Manufacturing Company Of Chicago
today said they would agree in the
event of Major McKinley's election to
put 800 mon at work in two days at full

cratic letter that w0rkmen secure a
guarantee from their employers of in
creased wages. II others follow this
company we 1000, 600 men will be put
to work within thirty days after Nc
Kinley's election.

Canton News. A prominent pop of
Worthing discharged a man in his im-
ploy because the nan was for Mckinley
and insisted on wearing q gold hat.
The pop informed his hired man that
he could not wear that sort of q hat
while in his employ. The young man
had the true spirit Of independence for
he told Mr.. Pop he should YEA the hat
even If he had to loose his job and the
pop bounced him. A good republican
however gave him a job SO that he only
lost part Of a day. Talk about coercion!
Prate about the railroads compelling
their men to vote for Mckinley! The
real coercionist Is the boycotting pop
everytime he has the chance. A bust
nees man of Worthing who has kept
his own counsel and said nothing about
politics was asked by q pop who he
should vote for, for president.
The business man said he
did not care to NEEDLE with politics
but the pop pressed 80 hard for an
answer that he finally said ''well. when
election day comes round, / shall vote
for Mckinley" Then said the pop
II will never buy 50 cents worth of
you and the pop had been a large
toner of the same business man. Oh
yes, the pops are just the one to howl
about republican coercion. As a mat
ter of fact, it Is sometimes necessary to
flight the devil with fire." and it
might be a good plan for some OF the
republicans to retaliate In this line just
to show the pops the dire results which
would follow if republicans should re-
fuse to patronize pops or have any bust
ness relations with them. No more
devlish doctrine could be advocated and
the News does not advise this sort of
welfare, but the pops do. They urge
that only pop meetings should be at
tended by pops. The leaders fear that
honest Investigations by the Intelligent
vote rs will loose them votes and 90 they
advise the pops TO stay away from the
republican meetings, but, thanks to
their intelligence and honesty, there
are many pops who cannot be led by
the nose and they attend republican
meetings and AZ a result there are
many who will not vote the democratic
ticket and who will not allow them
selves to be cold by the leaders OF the
democratic party.

A good man has gore to bis reward
After life of service in his Master
cause Rev. w. Logan Williams has hesrc
and ans wered the summons to come NJ
higher. For a month ne has suffered
fr Jm general debility, which his slende
stock of vital force could not rally from
and he grew worse and worse till yester
day at s o'clock, when the end came.
Mr.. Williams was born Jan. %, 1928
at Hustonvile, where be has always
made his home. He was the youn 2est OF
the 10 children OF Samuel Williams, who
came to Kentucky from Virginia
! Originally a Presbyterian, be entered
Centre College, from which he graduated
in 1910, with the intention to devote
himself to the ministry OF that denomi-
nation, but after further study OF its
teachings and those of the Christian
church, be decided to Join the latter and
in 1851 vas ordained to preach the gos-
pei. To his efforts are due both the
Christian church and colleg4 at Huston
vile and these handsome buildings will
remain a nonument to his love and de-
votiOn. His ministry hss been mainly
identified with that church, FOR with the
exception OF four years RS evangelist, he
has always been it's pastor, holding that
relation ct the time OF his death.

vile, and in 1861, Miss Permelis Pey-
ton, OF this couny, who with two. chill
dren, Mrs. Lee F. Huffman and Miss
Dollie Williams survive, daughters Of Il g
third and fourth wife respectively
A stronger will power nor q more &C
tive mind never found home in a Trailer
body, but Handicapped az his physique
rendered him, he lAbored for the cause
nearest his heart, when stouter bodies
would have given up the fight. He has
received more people into the church
and married more couples than any man
in this section. The good he has done
and the seeds of love and religion that
he has sown will ripen al along till eter-
nifty takes the ace of time. Everybody
in all the region roundabout knew and
loved him and general SORROW will be fell
that he will no more tell on earth the
story of redeeming love.
