We publish on this page a most re
markable article taken Fl ON the edito
rial page of The Atlanta Evening Jour
nal, the official organ" of the Secre-
tary Of the Interior-remarkable not

fact that this pitiable story Of the havoc
being wrought by the gold standard
ever crept into such G conspicuous
place in the columns Of the newspap'r
which is now devoting it's supreme en-
ergy to the defence of the currency
system which has brought the business
Of the country to the verge of ruin.

Correspondence of the Progressive Farmer.
On June 45h l sent the cOmmunica
ton given below to the Charlotte %
server. in answer to a column article
written by some goldbug pet who is
finishing his education in Europe, in
the course of which be unsparingly
dishes out the old monetary hash,
abundantly sprinkled with young lin
guistic pepper-sauoe for the PopuliSts,
I sent the reply to the Observer,
mainly to see whether there was any
spirit Of fairness to ward free discus
sion. There seems to be none as l have
not heard from 1t In anyway since.
| ask you to give it to your thou
sands of readers to cay they can judge
Of the shallowness and ~llt'leness
where there should be whol9-soQled
goodness.
This ought to teach any fair minded
person that opponents IN this poll
lical contest are the enemies OF the
people; that they are wrong-nO5 only
so, but VI Ist, deceitful, malicious and
cowardly-or they would cheerfully
yield TO the fullest discussion.
It is only history repeating itself on
the side Of oppression. They are SO
very blind they Will not see and so vii
fully ignorant that thoy cannot learn.

was introduced in the congress
which did not effect the tariff

business men to investigate this
matter and create a sentiment that
will result in the passage of such a
bill as will enable us to establish
ourselves as solvent nation.

Catchup For Life.

When I was a boy, they spelled it
"catsup," but .'catchup'' will do for
this story. The article is made of toma-
toes over in New Jersey, and has an
enormous sale. A dear old lady in Con-
necticut heard of it, and, having rep
utation in the neighborhood for making
catchup, determined to try it. A bottle
was purchased in the village, and on
the following morning Aunt Jemima
started fer New Jersey. Arriving at the
factory, she called for the proprietor, in
formed him that his catchup was, if
anything, little better than hers, and
as she didn't propose to be outdone at
home, she wanted his recipe. TWAS the
first time she had ever heard Of a CATCH
up being better than hers The proprie-
tor said, smiling at her innocence, "My
dear madam, I cannot give you my
recipe, but if you will leave your name
and address I will see that you get as
many bottles of catchup every season as
you may want all the rest Of your life. =
She returned home only half satisfied,
but the first installment Of a dozen quart
bottles eased her troubled spirit. New

Kipling's Rare Gift Of Observation.

KipliAg's Rare Gift OF Observation.
An intimate friend Of Kipling's,
with whom he was for some time
associated in editing paper in
India, r, Gently remarked: "While
possessing marvellous faculty for
assimjlating local color without
apparent effort, Kipl1ng neglected
no chance and spared no labor in
acquiring experience that might
serve a literary purpose. = One
who has been permitted to read in
advance Kipling's new SERIAL
story, Captains Courageous"
which begins publication in the
current number of McClure's
Magazine. finds this habit of
Kipling's especially manifest in
that story. Dealing with phase
Of life far apart from the ordinary
that of the Gloucester fishermen
on the Grand Banks-the story
reads as if some actual fisherman,
suddenly lifted out of his lifelong
condition and endowed with the
gift of literary perspective and
expression, was looking back on
it and writing out his own ex-
periencc. The brevity, the direct.
ness, the perfect ease and natural.
ness with which the daily round
Of labor and adventure is set forth,
show that Kipling must himself
have been through it all, and by
his marvellous faculty for assimi-
lating local color,' made it, as it
were, bone of his bone and flesh
