THE TOLTECS,
one Of the r ost Ancient Races on the
 American Continent.

Of the races which inhabited the
 American continent before the white
 man undertook to civilize it says
 the Fl Paso Herald, the Toltecs are
 worthy of notice or the civilization
 they brought, presumably from
 Asia or some unknown part of the
 world. Il has always been a my
 stery where they came from, and
 will possibly always be so, but the
 fact remains that they have left to
 thinking people lasting remembran.
 ces of a civilization which was un-
 excelldd at the time they arrived
 on the American continent. The
 pyramids of Egypt, which tourist
 travel thousands of miles to see,
 are inferior, if anything, to what can be seen today in Mexico by those who are ambitious of taking in the sights of the world. The pyramids of the Sun and Moon,
 which were built by the Toltecs, are to be seen today in Mexico, The former Is colossal in it's pro- portions, and equals in architectural skill anything which Egypt can produce. It's length is $40 feet, breadth 609 feet, and it's height in proportion to the rest of It's collos- sal dimensions. It was built by these people to perpetuate their idea of religion. The pyramid of the sun was supposed to represent day. and the pyramid of the moon represented night. The latter u&s 600 feet long and 5f0 feet wide. In each of these splendid struc- lures an idol was placed of gigantic proportions, which 1t was supposed would overlook and protect the people from the influence of the evil spirit. which was supposed to remain around whenever 1t was cloudy. The Mexican government about four years ago sent a party to investigate and report on the discoveries which 1t was expected would be made in this pyramid. They were thoroughly explored md a report given which cor ,oborated the writing of the ancient with regard to these pyramids. The expedition which vent to Palenque few years ago, sent by the French government, disclosed the faCt that there was which Egypt could produce which Palenque could not Us S-ount. The Toltecs certainly gave tL- world something to think about when they built these stHpendocs monuments to their everlasting grandeur and civilization.

SHOULD not be regarded as trihing ailment-in fact, nature demands the utmost regularity of the bowels, and any deviation from this demand paves the way often to serious danger.

rich and not have a dollar in his
pocket. For that matter he might
be rich and not dollar circulating
in his country.
Again, the prosperity Of a coun-
try is based upo4 the welfare of its
laborers, its toilers and its workers,
and the fruits of their labor that
they enjoy. Where, upon the whole
earth, is there a nation the great
body of whose people are enjoying
not only the necessities but the
luxuries of life, if not in America?
| affirm that the poor are growing
richer and the rich poorer, mas
much that there are but few true
enjoyments that the rich have but
the poor can have also. Contrast
the home of the average American
workingman with that of workers
in any other nation, and he is living
in luxury. To-day, thanks be to
the benefcient institutions flourish
ing under our form Of government,
the poorest man may enjoy priyil-
eyes that less than one hundred
years ago in our own country none
but the well-to do people could OBJ
tain.
In this great campaign Of discon-
tent-of unfortunate debtors ours
ing the men who gave them credit
we should not forget the fact that
the greater part Of our people are
better fixed IN this worlds goods
than ever before. Garrett county
furnishes ample proof of this fact
in its community Of thrifty Dunk
ards, who, from poyerty's door, al
most, have acquired good homes
and comfortable possessions.
Has it come to pass that the I'M
successful man shall teach us polit-
ical economy, and the discounted
man shall inject his virulent poison
into the hearts of coltented people
the people who have made our
country nation Of homes? In the
language of an illustrious and an
immortal writer, whose mind was
pure reason itself, l find fitting
words for the political situation Of
to-day, and respectfully ask the
free silver reader to read and digest
them: "For whosoever shall take
upon him to choose and alter,
usurps the authority of Judging,
and should look well about him,
and make it his business to discuss
clearly the defects Of what he would
abolish, and the virtues Of what he
is about to introduce. = They

A SPLENDID TICKET.
Palmer of Illinois for President;
Buckner of Kentucky for Vice.
DracfIAV1H

INDIANAPoLIs, Sept. 4.-The
Democratic National Convention of
1896 completed its work Yesterday
afternoon a little before shutdown
by nominating:
For President-Senator John NJ.
Palmer of Illinois.
For Vice-Presldent - General
Simon Bolivar Buckner of Ken
lucky.
1t is the ticket of the north and
south, of the Blue and Gray. Pal
mer was a Union general during
the war. Buckner was a general
on the Confederate side. They
fought each other at ChIckamauga,
Both are former governors of Ken
lucky. Buckner was elected to
that office by Democrats after the
war. Palmer was military governor
of the state, appointed in 1864 and
remaining until 1866.
The ticket is regarded as the best
that could have been nominated,
Both candidates are we'll advanced
in years. Palmer is 70 years old.
Buckner is 70. Yet, both seem to
be in the prime of that mature
manhood which never grows old.
Only the names of two old sold
iers, Palmer and Bragg were pre-
scented for the nomination for presi-
dent.
Only one ballot was taken, and
before the result could be announ-
ced, Gen. Bragg gracefully moved
that the nomination be made unan-
imous and there was turbulent re-
ioicing. Gen. Buckner's nomina-
ton was made by reclamation.
Both of the candidates will be mott
fed of their nomination in Louis
vile, KY, Sept. II.
1t is asserted by the Democrats
of Illinois and Kentucky that the
nominations make the success of
Bryan IN these states simply i'm
possible.

BRADDOCKS ROAD.
Later Highways Along the Old Route
Road Legislation.

Later Highways Along the Old Route
Road Legislation.
Public roads have at all times
been an interesting practical ques-
ton for civilized people. In the
more early history of Allegany
county, and indeed of the whole
State, the Legislature had full con-
troll over all the roads. No road,
however small or short, could be
opened or changed without an act
of the General Assembly. No sub
iect claimed more attention from
the Legislature than the roads.
COST CHARGED TO PETITIONERS.
However, about the year 18-, the
county authorities were empowered
to deal with the roads. Formerly
the parties asking for new road
were obliged to pay the whole ex-
pense, and to keep them up after
wards. There were several instances
in early times when lotteries were
resorted to to raise money to build
important roads. Notably, the act
of 1897, chapter IA, authorized
$4,000 to be raised in this manner
to improve post road from Sldeling
Hill to where it reached the Virginia
line. The commissioners to carry
out the scheme were John Simkins
(then an associate Judge of the
county court), John Compton,
Evan Gwynne, William McMahon,
John G. Beatty, James Cresap Of
NJ, John Mitchell, David Lynn and
Samuel B. Beall. A bond of $780,
900 was required to be given by the
commissioners. Their proceedings
were to be of record IN the county
courts, but investigation does not
disclose any record, and the proba
bility is the law was never carried
into effect. Ten thousand dollars
was large sum of money in those
poor times to raise to establish 't
post road" which meant road t.
carry the U. S. mail upon.
BRADDoCK's ROUTE.
The interest in the history of thu
old Braddock's road is still KEEP
aliye. 1t is well known that origi
nally it was military road, com
mencing at Alexandria, Va, ant
running near Fort Duquesne pitts
burg) over which Gen. Braddocl
marched his army in 1855. For
Cumberland was a very importan
point on the line. 1t is know
however, that Braddock did no
locate the road. West of For
Cumberland Washington ha
passed over the route several year
prior with horses. So it was the
something of a highway, but Brad
dock made it passable for teams an
wagons. He had long train G
them. 1t is known the friendl
Indians had more to do with point

A Communication.

To the Editor OF Inc EepuDllcdl.
There is one view of our currency
question which, it seems to me, is
not brought forward enough by the
advocates Of sound money.
That view is the wonderful prog
ress our country has made under
the present sound money system.
If SINGLE gold standard is so
productive of evil results as our free
coinage friends would have US be-
lieve, how then do they account
for the marvellous growth and pros
perity of our country during the
last sixty years? The very money
that they so freely condemn has
been not only the chief factor in de-
veloping and builing up the great
western states but our magnificent
industries as we'll. 1t is vain and
an unreasonable mind that con-
dennis the bloated bondholders and
shvlocks of the east-as blatant
free silver press is pleased to term
our capitalists-as so many blood
suckers of the nations wealth.
That is not the language of men
who reason upon conditions and
facts. Facts are indeed stubborn
things and he pays dearly who at
tempts to ignore them. Reason
is always cool and collected and
never allows itself to be disturbed
and dismayed, no matter how great
calamity may be impending.
Even the friends of sound money
allow themselves to be uselesslY dis
turbed by the anarchistic promul-
cations formulated in the platform
of the Bryan Democracy. A man
may be the arbiter of his own des-
tiny but the welfare of nation de-
ponds upon good fortune more than
legislation, Laws do not make a
country but its people do. They
are stronger than all law, stronger
than reason itself, but seldom, il
ever, stronger than custom. Gus
