DEATH OF n. B. SMITH.
A Prominent Citizen and Business Man of
Madison Died Suddenly at $3.50
this Afternoon.

Our community was startled this af-
ternoon by the report of the death of N.
b. Smith which occurred at $50 p. m.
1t WIS not generally known that Mr..
Smith was aillDg, and In fact he had
been ailing but very little, and his death
was a great shock to his family and
friends who little expected it. About a
week ago he called a physician in to re-
lieve MIN OF a shortness Of breath and
catching pain in the stomach, and for
tho first time again had a recurrence Of
it this forenoon. He speedily recovered
fromthe former and it was supposed he
About IL o'clock he went over to his
daughter's-Mrs. j. IT. J~ohnson-and
soon after was attacked by the catching
pain in his stomach and shortness of
breath which increased in intensity I'M

cred 20 be serious, but they were power
less to give relief. He was conscious
and courageous to the end, uttering not
a word Of complaint. HIS family, con-
sisting Of his wife, son Charles, and
daughters, Mrs. j. B. Johnson and Mrs.
Geo. r. Farmer, except the latter, we're
present at his deathbed.
Deceased was 68 years Of age.b born IN
Crawford county, Pa, where he grew to
manhood and married Celestine A.
Hackett, who survives him. In 1857
they moved west and took up their
home at Spring Valley, Mimi, whence
fifteen years ago they removed to Or
tonville, Mimi, where he kept hotel.
About ten years ago MIR. Smith came to
Madison and purchased land, later re-
turning with his family and engaging in
the dairy and milling business with his
son Charles. They have conducted a
successful business, and Mr.. Smith has
been a prominent factor in the business,
social and religious life Of the commune
ty. He was a consistent member Of the
NJ. f. church and a staunch supporter
of the good work. His> remains will be
buried here, but the family have been so
overcome by his sudden and unexpected
death that no arrangements have yet
been made for the funeral.

BLACK EYE PEAS.

Looking over the PopulIsts plat.
form, and that of the Democrats
laid down at their last meetings, it
is almost impossible to tell one from
the other. In fact, the platform
of the Peoples party is in most re-
spectS, identical with that of the
Democrats, yet advocates more
radical innovations on the existing
order of things. 1t calls for free
and unrestricted coinage of silver
and gold at the ratio of l6 to /, de-
nounces the bond issues, denounces
the Supreme Court for its ruling
against the Constitutionality of the
income tax law, and charges whole
sale corruption against the Exc
cutive power and patronage"
The planks of chief Importance,
in addition to the principles copied
from the Democratic platform, are
the following;
transportation being a means of
exchange and a public necessity,
the Government should own and
operate the railroads in the inter-
est of the people and on non-parti-
san basis, to the end that all may
be accorded the same treatment in
transportation, and that the tyr
amy and political power now eXer-
ciSed by the great railroad COrpO-
rations, which result in the impair
ment if not the destruction of the
political rights and personal liberties
of the citizen, may be destroyed.
Such ownership is to be accom-,
plished gradually, in manner con-
sistent with sound public policy.
The telegraph, like the postoffice
system, being a necessity for the
transmission of news, should be
owned and operated by the Govern
ment, in the interest of the people,
The two parties having the same
common end, and working for the
same reforms. seems to us that
they should get together IN states
that are close and elect their ticket
to a man.
In Alabama many of the POpulist
counties have laid aside their en-
nifty to the Democrats, and marched
to the polls and voted for the DEM
Ocratic nominee for Governor.
If this is done in all the states,
our victory over Mckinley will be a
crushing one, and the Republican
party will go to pieces, and the par,
tisans of that party will join their
interest with some other party or
remain away from the polls for all
time to come, and let the lntelli-
gence of the country have charge
of the Government.
We pray that we will win this vic
tory, for all depends on it for the
future prosperity of the United
States of America.
