Wall street has begun its campaign
for the gold dollar standard. It is
sending out ready prepared matter
from 81 William street, New York, TO
gold bug papers without cost. They
even go further than that. They will
send you good-bug matter for one side
of your paper and miscellaneous mat
ter for the other side, without money
and without price. This is the fruit of
the manifesto issued by the gold
sharks Of Wall street a few weeks
since, announcing that money would
be needed to conduct gold campaign
and it seems the money came without
delay. This is no exaggeration, but
cold facts that the bimetallic pecpl
must meet. The people can beat I'M
holy money if they will, but it is no
child's play. Let every friend of the
money of the Constitution and every
foe of the Wall street thieves stand
without hinching, and they can beat
anybody the pirates name. If this
government is only for the bidding oil
bond buyers and the gold sharks
that prey upon the nations vitals, the
sooner the people know it the better,
bitter though the fact be.--Bowling
Green Courier.
This corrupt proposition is not
only made to gold bug papers, but to
Democratic papers as well. They Of

The gold standard bond pe.icy of
the latter day Democratic saints,
known in common parlance as gold
bugs, has not increased the value of
taxable property in Kentucky. Afall

look like prosperity had returned, and
perched herself over the doorway of
the old Kentucky home.-Crittenden

This is the regular year for the
election of an appellate judge in an
other district, all of the judges being
elected in the even years, and the
claim that an election cannot be law,
fully held in this district is merely a
wish founded on one of those "techni-
calities" for which our friend Judge
Landes is noted. The Judge thinks
his appointment runs till 1897, but it
is well to remember that
when self the trembling balance turns
Tis rarely well adjusted. !"

If Ifreports be true Bryan's strength
is growing in Indiana at marvellous
rate. The Democrats are now claim
ing that the State will give the Demo-
cratic ticket a majority Of between
sc, 600 and Is 900, and they would not
be surprised if the majority went be-
yond these figures. Chairman Holt,
of the Democratic State committee,
gave out statement on Wednesday
to the effect that the chairman Of the
county committees have sent him the
names of 10000 Republicans who have
Joined Bryan clubs for the past month
together with the information that
they are still coming to the support OF
the Democratic national ticket. These
Republicans are farmers who have al
ways voted the ticket of their party.
In the cities Republican workingmen
are also Joining the ranks of the De-
mocracy in large numbers.-States.

BkYANfS POPULARITY.

Three weeks ago the Repnhlica.
newspapers declared that the effarves-
enee ot Mr.. Bryan's Chicago speech
would pass away and n reaction set in
that would spoi, swamp Democratic
hopes OF success, but the Chicago con-
yention is more than month behind
us, and the enthusiasm which the
speech aroused among the masses of
tho people. Is growing instead of SUBJ
siding. This can not he disputed in
the face Of the fact that no candidate
for President has ever before been
honored with such orations as have
been given the eloquent Young Ne
braskan on his trip across the country
from Lincoln To New York.
Every body except the purblind Nc
Kin!eyites sees and knows that Bryan
is gaining instead of losing ground as
the campaign progresses, and this fact
S admitted by tie Chicago Dispatch

says:
