euce, but neither has ever allowed him
self to needlessly hurt the feelings of the
young callers at thair offices.

gold and silver as the metallic basis OF
values OF the worlds currency, and
am confident that within time net for

the nations upon that subject by which
the ratios OF value OF the two metals for
the coinage and currency purposes will
be fixed" So hope We all, but until
then the present conditions must prevail,
if we would keep every dollar as good as
the gold dollar. The free and unlimited
coinage of silver means the disturbing of
values, the impsiring OF confidence, the
injury of business, and ultimate silver
monometalism, with gold driven from

THE New York Herald, which has per
sistently doomed Mr.. Cleveland for a
third term, has at last given up the fight
and in it's issue of Monday says that
the president would not accept another
nomination even il were possible for him
to have an absolute guarantee OF his
election, and il formal declaration to
this end Is necessary to convince the peo
pie that he is in earnest ne will make il
so emphatic that he who runs may read
aud believe. This statement is said to
come direct from a member of the cabi-
net, in the confidence of the president,
who further says that Mr.. Carlisle is Mr.
Cleveland's personal and political choice
for the democratic nomination and to
him he will throw his strength. Mr..
Cleveland is right all around. Third
terms don't 90 in this country and the
democratic party could not afford to
tempt fate by disregsrding the unwritten
law even were the president ever so will
ing to run again. Then too Mr.. Carlisle
would make an ideal candidate for the
presidency. He is sound on every issue
and the peer OF any man in the United
States intellectually. If the time has
come for Southern man to win, We hope
Mr.. Cleveland will be nominated. With
such candidate and such 6 platform as
he would represent, the democracy would
90 into the fight with absolute confidence
and unbounded enthusiasm.
