Ex-senator Anthony Higgins would
have simplified matters by asking
Judge Wales to appoint a receiver for
the Union Republican party But,
then, he never did go at a thing di-
rectly. There is a goaroundativeness
about the senator that is novel, anus
ing and exasperating.

well, taking it up one side and down
the other there is a contain degree of
similarity between the Democratic plat
form and what ours will be in regard to
silver, the revenue tax, court injunctions,
opposition to bonds and opposition to the
funding bill.
m.'Our platform will practically be an
anti-monopoly platform of four PROPOSE
tons. Three planks will deal with finance
ana monopoly and the fourth will present
the remedy in direct legislation, which is
simply placing the veto power III the
hands OF the people as well as in the
hands of the President. People are going
to think this year and our platform will
be regarded by large element of the peo-
pie almost like the ten commandments.
"Our party has changed in ten years.
We have gained standing and character
as party of the people. At Omaha there
were various elements thrown together,
and platform was rushed together and q
ticket nominated in one or two days.
Things were not thought out. 1t will be
different with US this year."

CHAUNCEY DEPEw AS AUTHORITY.
Fifty New Workers Control the Country
Because thew Control its Money.

DR.. Chauncey NJ Depew is another
man whose record on the money
question has given him some uneasi-
ness of late, although it must be said
in justice to his unwavering devotion
to the money power that DR.. Depew
has always been q consecrated gold
bug. Still the genial after dinner
speaker has been guilty of some very
indiscreet remarks. In speaking of
the wonderful accumulations which
had been amassed in this country
within the last few years, Dr. Depew
on one occasion said:
"There are fifty men in New York
who can in twenty-four hours stop
every wheel on all railroads, close
every door of all our manufactures,
lock every switch of all telegraph
lines, and shut down every coal and
iron mine in the United States. They
can do so because they control the
money which this country produces.
Had the New York orator been the
most devoted friend of bimetallism
in this country he could not better
have portrayed the danger arising
from the money power than in the
striking language which has just been
quoted. 1t is against such a men
acing condition as the one described
that the advocates of bimetallism are
waging such gallant flight in this
campaign.-Atlanta Constitution.
Peninsula enterprise. [volume] (Accomac, Va.) 1881-1965, 1896-10-03
Politics in the Pulpit.

SIN the political campaign through
which we are passing, shall the min
lister from the pulpit endeavor to
guide his people one way or the
other? With all earnestness and from
a profound conviction we answer,
No! There never was a season when
the people more needed their day Of
rest and devotion, and would be
more helped by the elevating, pacify
ing influences of divine truth. That
great moral issues are at stake, may
be true, but that is an assumption just
now, that is question at issue. The
Christian minister has commission
to preach the word; he goes outside
of his commission, turns aside from
his heavenly errand, has no promise
of divine favor and help, and des-
cends to the level of the world when
he undertakes to teach politics. He
is not specially instructed in states
manship. Many of his hearers are
better informed. He enters the arena
of party conflict, alienates some part
of his hearers, loses dignity and
authority, and is for all his work
henceforth shorn Of strength and in
fuence among men. "-Central Pres
byterian..
