f. E. STROUP, of Fulton.

In the beginning of this campaign our
free silver advocate of Ithaca, Mr. Chase,
in his speeches unrolled large chart to
his audience and described how wheat
and silver travelled together. In other
words, when wheat went up silver could
be found beside it. PopOcrat Chase has
rolled up his chart, wheat has gone up
twenty five cents on bushel and still
on the rise, while silver has gone down
four cents since Mr.. Bryans nomination
and is still going down. The great
wheat producing states are going to roll
up republican votes on November on
the strength of the argument, too. The
advance in wheat for the last week
makes difference to the wheat produc-
ers in the United States of over 5000,

ANOTHER OBJECT LESSON.
The Bullet and Sword are to be
Used Instead of Submission.

The great and only Charlie Chase, the
only one of his kind ever captured, has
become writer of the most blood curd-
ling and pessimestic editorials il has
been our privilege to read Indeed one
would almost think it was from the pen
OF that greatest curse to the American
working man, Herr Most, the great
anarchist leader Listen while we quote
TO you some of the evident Authorizations
of the poor man 1.-The struggle is on,
and If the people do not win in 1896, it
Will mean four more years of the reign
OF this Juggernaut to which thousands,
nay, millions, are sacrificed every year.
But the fight Is inevitable and the peO-
pie aroused and frenzied at last, if this
monster is not wiped out by the ballot,
may drench the land again in blood.
Surely the man who will express such
sentiment as this, is not fit 10 admin
lister the affairs of an office, where the
estates of the poor and helpless widows
and orphans must be settled. Only the
soundest Judgment, the most temperate
nature and the peaceful character are
the worthy claimants 10 that high Office
of trust and honor. But this is not all
the would be judge has uttered. How
Is this.-"Who knows but in lour years
more the people will be plunged so low
in the depths of despair, that they will
arise in their might and right their
wrongs with the bullet and sword?
Then will be the time for the money
kings TO trent le and then will there be
no mercy shown, no quarter given, but
the relentless and blood thirsty demon
of war will glut himself with their
blood"
Who will use that bullet and sword?
Is Brother Chase ready to shoulder his
knap-sack and bring desolation and dis
grace to the land?
Reader, carefully ponder over the fol-
lowing excellent sentiment from the |
Herald, and remember that it means
you:
Voters, contrast the fair temperate |
Judicial make up of Judge John M.
Everden with the above blood thirsty
rawlings and decide between the men
Whatever your political preferences on
president or platform, remember that
in the administration of our county
offices, the question of free coinage of
silver is not at stake The only question
is, which candidates are best fitted for
the Offices"

How true are the words of Judge
Ramsdell, as indicated by the result of
a campaign of investigation and ex-
PLANTATION, "that if the reader will study
this matter and reflect upon the conse-
quences Of the free and unlimited coin
age Of silver, am satisfied that he will
refuse TO vote for any candidate for
congress, pledged to vote for such an
unwise measure. The fact that Judge
Ramsdell is now a free silver candidate
for congress somewhat disturbs his re-
lation to his argument, remains I'M
daunted and only the Judge is loser.
That the logic and the facts are all
against him is Mr.. Ramsdells misfort-
une and in this case his fault.-Cadillac

The chief reason we are opposed to
Chas. Chase of Ithaca, for the Office of
Probate Judge, is his incapability and
lack of judicial knowledge. We have
never had a man, who has filled the
Office with so much credit to himself
and so general satisfaction to the people
of the county, as Attorney John M.
Everden, the present occupant of the
Office. In order to properly fulfill the
duties devolving upon him, it is necessary
for the Judge to have thorough knowl-
edge of law, and this Mr. Chase does not
possess. Which do you want to vote for,
sound and honest Judgment, or incompe-
tency and wind?

Just four years ago the people of the
country were cruely deceived by the
promises of the party of free trade, for
which so much was promised. The
same party is in the field this year with
a new heresy hiding the old, and again
extravaganza promises. But
there are not so many people willing

Incandescent Lights Best.

From the Rochester Morning Herald.
 Gas is valuable for illuminating pur- poses, and will remain in use for an in definite period of time. no doubt; but when the incandescent electric light can be secured upon nearly equal terms, 1t is in several respects incomparably supe- rior to gas or any other Illuminating agent. The advantage of the incandes- cent lamp over gas is generally apparent in that the former does not vitiate the air of an apartment. The carbonized filament that is raised to incandescence and furnishes the light is inclosed in an alright glass bulb and therefore, though hundred of them be burning in a closed room, no oxygen is taken from the apartment, and the air of the room re- mains as pure as if no lamps were burn ing It is estimated. we believe, that a single gas jet speaking generally, con sumes more oxygen than human being. The difference in the purity of the at mosphere of a room, the windows and the doors of which are kept closed, as in cold weather, Is therefore almost inn measurably in favor of the incandescent light. Where there are several occu- pants of such @ room. as in the various apartments of the public buildings. their health, as we'll as the cost of the several systems of lighting respectively should be considered.

The most pleasing sight ever witnessed by the State Herald fashion representa- tive was his visit to Caheen Bros. & Go. s spring opening, which took place yester- day and will continue today and tomorrow also. The first at- traction that meets the gaze are the exquisitely decorated show windows, filled with marvels of fashions art. love ly Napoleonic fans and Marie Antoinette fisehus. The very narrowest kinds Of belts, designed out of Mifing gold, and irrfdescent spangles, silky crepons ana lowered silk grenadines and several high ly executed Parisian pattern hats were all in one window.
 In the other there are maizes Of sheer Organdies, Dimities and French lawns and every conceivable kind of shirt waist. On entering the portals your gaze is cen tered upon a mighty cactus plant, sur rounded by numec0uS palms ana 1nter- spersed throughoutsthe mammoth estaD- lishment The visions presented to you in the show windows are not circum- stance to what comes after entering. It is almost impossible for one to describe them, but they must be seen to be ap- preciated. Then walk to the rear or the store and take the left to the second floor, and then you are in Easter para disc. There is where the largest crowd of persons are to be seen, pushing and crushing one another in their attempts to look upon an Easter bonnet It is hard to understand how so many different styles can emanate from the human mind We advise everyone who can pos sibly attend today and tomorrow to do so as a. treat is in store for you. and you will be as kindly received as our repre- sentative was.

Johnston the Man to Heal Old Party Woun,

J0nnSt0n the wan 10 neal Ulu rdrly WOuhuS'
 prominent citizen of Roanoke, Ala, was in the city yesterday, and in an swer to the query as to the political sta- tus in Randolph, said: ssl,r
 "Tvhe democrats of Randolph are for harmony and democratic success We have no candidate for state office in the field, and hence our acts in the premises are purely patriotic"
 May I ask who your people prefer for governor?" put In the reporter.
 My people are always outspoken in their preferences. We think Captain Johnston is the only man that can heal the party breach in our section, and if the Clarke forces don't couple up link or two I fear there is no healing balm that will prove an effectual cure. John ston Is popular with all classes of our people. He Is a man anybody can ap- proach-an everyday, commonplace fel- low-and if anybody can bring the way ward democrats back into the fold, my opinion is that he is the only man in the field who can do 1t. However, we are making no fight. My section, as you know, Is not overburdened with demo- cratic voters at the best, and unless har- mony Is to some extent restored it will simply mean how low we can reduce the republican and populist majority in Au- gust"

 Another sham of sinister sort is the chap who goes around with hark-from- the-tombs face to the merchant whom he has heard was going to vote for John ston and advises him that he mustn't go back on sound money, that Johnston's nomination means this and that as though the merchant who had made up his mind hadn't had sense enough, know ing Captain Johnston's character, his reputation and record, to come to a sound conclusion without assistance. Several of these superserviceable fellows, who have recently been nagging Johnston merchants have been pretty sharply re- buked.
