4 SAMPLE GOLD STATEMENT.

The Kentucky sound money
Democratic convention yesterday
was attended by nearly every
prominent Democrat in the State"
Telegram in Charlotte Observer.
The only men of prominence who
took prominent part were ". c. z.
Breckenridge and ex-Goy. Buckner.
The other well known Kentuckians
were conspicuous by their absence.
Those present, as a rule, were men not
known in politics. The fact that
Breckenridge was the chief speaker
must have Disguised the pure minded
MEN in attendance. Breckenridge,
Herr Host and Mark Hanna leading the
cause of 'shonest money" is nothing
less than 1ravesty.

sruHrrFIED THEMSELVES.

The Populist convention in the
Eighth district, over which r. A. Cobb,
an assistant Republican, presided, en-
ylorsed Hon. Romulus 2. Linney for re-
election to Congress. 1t has been I'M
ylerstood that Mr.. Linney's emissaries
had been at work in the counties
promising Republican support to Pop
ulists for everything they wanted in
return for this endorsement. They
succeeded in obtaining the formal en-
dorsement of Mr.. Linney by some OF
the politicians of the party, but they
will find that every Populist who be-
lieves in the principles Enumerated at
st. Louis and Raleigh will refuse to
vote to stultify themselves. Mr.. Lin
new openly announces his hostility to
Populist principles as follows;
/. He is opposed to the free and un-
limited coinage of silver at the ratio
of 16 to /, He seeks to conceal his
faith in the gold standard by declaring
himself in favor of "the coinage of the
product of the American miners"
2. He supports Mckinley for Presi-
dent, and knows that if Congress
should pass free coinage act, McKin-
ley would veto it.
3. He declares that protection is
more important than financial reform.
Mr.. Linney is an ideal Republican
candidate Mark Hanna will furnish
him all the campaign funds he wants.
His election would be triumph for
Mckinley and gold. A Populist can
vote for Linney just as consistently as
strong Baptist can have his babies
baptized by pouring.
In February last the Caucasian
spoke out against the sort of stalti-
fcation the Topulist politicians were
guilty Of when they endorsed Linney.
1T said: E9 iAsg.
E. I'VE denounced The Democratic
party in North Carolina for say
ing that it was for free silver and
then voting to elect a gold bug for
President. Of course when the Dem
ocrats did SO they knew that they
were sacrificing the interests of
the people and bringing upon
them sure poverty and distress.
But the politicians wanted to
keep in close touch with the Ma
tional Democratic party in order
that few of them might get Fed
eral offices while thousands a
round them suffered and grew
poorer each day. 1T is possible
that the Republican party in the
State will insist on pursuing the
same course that the Democrats
have pursued in this matter? If so,
can any member of the Peoples
party approve of their course or
help them to accomplish it?"
Mr.. Linney has done exactly what
the Caucasian denounced the Demo
Gratis for doing, with this difference;
the Democrats construed the Chicago
platform 10 mean the free coinage of
both metals, whereas Mr.. Linney is
supporting Mckinley for President
whose platform declares for a contin-
nance of the present gold standard.
''Can any member of the Peoples par
~ approve of their course or help
them to accomplish it?''

SCORING PRITCHARD AND RUS.
SELL.

The zeal of Russell and Pritchard
to run away from joint discussions
with Democratic and Popnlist oppo-
nents is accepted everywhere as an
evidence Of cowardice end weakness.
Mr. Thomas Settle, Republican nomi-
nee for Congress in the Fifth district,
in q recent interview. says he will
refuse to be bound by the resolution,
and adds;
'It is weak, timid and cowardly
to depart from it under existing
conditions. / will admit that there
may be some individual Republi-
can candidate or campaigner whose
political record, in and out of Con-
gress, may embarrass him some
what in a joint discussion with
Democrat or a Populist, but if the
resolution was passed at the in
stance, and for the relief OF such,
my answer is that they have no
right to embarrass the party with
their individual troubles. The peo-
pie are anxious to hear political
discussions, not Elk parte state
ments.'
Russell, Pritchard and Pearson made
their campaign two years ago de-
nouncing the Democratic administers
ton for its hostility to silver. They
know the people have long memories.
They, for their own relief" as Mr..
Settle happily puts it, are trying to
''embarrass the party with their in
dividual troubles"

HERzoG COMES OUT FOR BRYAN

Baltimore. Md. Aug. 2i.-One of the
big surprises of the campaign in this
city is the announcement that Charles
Herzog, a well-known attorney, who
was the Republican candidate for Con-
gress four years ago in the Third dis
trict, has declared himself for Bryan
and Sewall and free silver. The ac-
zion of Mr.. Herzog has caused good
deal of talk and some uneasiness a
mong the Baltimore Republicans. He
may take the stump for the Demo
crats this fall.

The ASYLUM INvEsTIGATI0N.-The
special committee investigating charges
against the Deaf, Dumb and Blind Insti-
tute conferred yesterday and decided to
meet again in Richmond on Saturday
morning for examination of witnesses.
A number will be summoned. Mr..
Frank Yates, former teacher, now in
Arkansas, will, it is said, send a COM
munication in which he will give bis
side, and will seek to clear himself of
the ugly charges against his character.
When the House met yesterday, Mr..
Huudley offered resolution authoriz-
ing the committee to employ counsel.
He said that while there were lawyers
on the committee, he knew that they
did not feel like placing themselves in
the position of prosecuting or defend
ing the institution or any person. 1t
was desirable to have the matter
probed to the bottom, aud counsel
would be of much service. In reply to
squestion Mr.. Hundley said it was not
his idea that the lawyers should repre-
sent any one, but would be with the
committee to see that justice was done
all concerned. 1t was far from his
purpose to reflect upon the committee.
He thought that body would like to
have counsel. The resolution was re-
ferred to the finance committee. It is
probable that the encouragement will
