The Next President Sees Special Pro-
priety in Observing the Fourth by
Democrats.
At the Fourth of July celebration in
Tammany, the braves greeted Bryan's
name with cheers whenever it was
spoken. Mr.. Bryan wrote:
Lincoln, Neb., June %, 1897.
Dear Sir: / regret that an engagement
made several weeks ago will render it
impossible for me to JOIN with the Tam
many Society in celebrating the one hun
dred and twenty-first anniversary Of the
Declaration Of Independence. 1 have on
a former occasion, commended the found
ers of your society for making provision,
in the constitution then adopted, for the
annual commemoration of the Fourth of
July. There is a special propriety in the
observance of this day by Democrats at
this time, when the party has just freed
itself from foreign financial influences,
and taken an emphatic stand in favor of
an American policy for the American
people. l trust that your meeting may
prove the Inauguration of a campaign
which will result in putting Greater
New York under Democratic control. The
party has already shown in Chicago, Gin
cinnati, and several other cities larger
gains than will be required to overcome
the Republican majorities recorded in
New York and Brooklyn last November.
All indications point to a strong growth
in public sentiment along the lines laid
down in the Chicago platform; the fail
ure Of the Republican policies to restore
prosperity having given a new impetus
to the movement which has for it's object
the restoration of gold and silver coinage
of the Constitution.
While the increasing strength of Demo
cratic principles, together with the alb
sence Of the coercion extensively prac-
ticed last fall, would seem sufficient ia
make victory reasonably certain in New
York, you will be greatly aided by the
fact that the Republican administration
both in your city and State, has been Sc
unsatisfactory as to cause widespread
criticism.
l trust that your celebration will excite
increased interest in the principles OF
Jefferson and Jackson, and thus hasten
the day when these principles will be
completely triumphant in city, State and
nation. Thanking for the honor you do
I am, very truly yours,
WILLIAM J. BRYAN.

THEN AND NOW

Mark Hanna in October 1896: "The
election of Mckinley will restore conf
dence and wage-earners will share in the
revival of prosperity that will immedi-
ately follow"
Mark Hanna, under the shadow Of a
great strike among the miners: lowing
to the existing conditions of business no
one can be expected to raise wages for
the present anywhere, and, therefore,
the strikers have chosen an unfortunate
time to make their demands, whether the
latter be reasonable or not"

The gathering of the Middle-of- the

not been devoid Of interest. One delegate,
Mcdowell, called another "a red-headed
sap-sucker." The Populist so addressed
called Mcdowell ga mullet-head,"
whereupon he was hit with a cane, and
the two men clinched. The fellows seem
to know each other pretty well.

A striking feature last week was the
cut in price of 800 bicycles, which are
reduced to $50, and it is said they will
go still lower. Under the pressure of a

things come down except passenger and
freight rates in North Carolina and the
cost of railroad free passes.

Orchard and Garden.

Always select trees with smooth
healthy looking bark.
The time to shape the heads of
trees is while they are growing.
Use the suds from the wash tubs
as fertilizer in the orchard.
Proper thinning of the fruit gives
it better opportunity to develop.
All wood that is more than two
years old should be cut out of the
gooseberries.
Sort all fruit to be sent TO market
carefully, and in this way increase
its value.
Prune out all useless shoots in
young fruit trees before the growth
is completed.
Before setting out straw berry
plants be sure that the soil is worked
into a fine filth.
Late cultivation is often detrimen-
tai by not allowing time for the new
wood to ripen.
One objection to too low training
in the orchard is that it interferes
with the cultivation.
Good growth now practically de-
termines the value of bearing canes
and vines next season.
When fruit is thinned the parent
plant is exhausted far lass than when
all is allowed to remain.

But the Bryanites Don't
Believe This.

"In no other country on earth
will you find the people so neatly
and comfortably dressed as in the
the United States" was the remark
uttered by a gentleman who, with a
friend, stood watching the crowd
of toilers setting forth yesterday to
spend labor's holiday at the various
pleasure resorts in and around the
city. Continuing, he said: "The
appearance of the American work
ingman on all occasions is a tribute
TO the industrial conditions under
which he tolls and lives. He and
his family are invariably neatly at
tired and their faces are intelligent.
And when they have holiday they
almost always have the means to en-
able them to enjoy it to the utmost.
When man gets good wages he
likes to wear good clothes and to
spend some of his money on amuse-
ments. In Europe the toilers pass
their holidays holding mass meet
ings to protest against the condi-
tions surrounding them. Here they
60 somewhere with their families to
have a good time. The difference
between the wage standard here and
in the older countries is responsible
for our generally happy and content
ed working people. "-Philadelphia

A. STRICT quarantine is ia

A STRICT quarantine is far
more effective in preventing
the introduction and spread
of yellow fever than any sani-
tary measure. In order to
prove the truthfulness of this
assertion, it is only necessary
to cite the public to the la
mentable experience of our
own county town of Grand
Junction. During the terri
bic epidemic of 1873, Grand
Junction lost more than half
its population from the dread
disease-not on account of
imperfect sanitary measures,
however, for that town was
then and is now, noted for its
cleanliness anG healthfulness
but on account &C lax quar-
antine laws. We d. not Ceny
the fact that sanitation is
beneficial gen rally speaking

see urging them to organize
in every county. We repro
duce below the cOncl" ding
part Of the adl"ess:
The Nation. | Democratic
party sta""s pledged ito
equal ana &c. justice to all
men, of every creed end con-
dition; to the largest freedom
of the individual consistent
with good government; to
the preservation of NE Fed
eral government in its consti-
tutiOnal vigor, AID to the snip
port of the states in ali their
just rights; to economy in the
public expenditures; to the
maintenance of the public
faith and sound money, and
to opposition to paternalism
and all class legislation"
They recognize in this the
ring of true Democracy; they
can there rally around the
old standard, tattered and
torn though it be, and conf
IDENTIFY await the future. They
may not reap the emoluments
of official station, but they
can preserve a principle, sa-
cred to all Democrats, and
must live if American
institutions are perpetuated.
There is nothing left for
Democrats who cannot follow
the lead of Mr.. Bryan, or sub
scribe to the creed written in
Chicago. to do except to stand
aloof from the organization,
and, without reckoning the
result to their individual po-
litical fortunes, cast their lot
with the National Democratic
pa ty. We hope to see a re-
correlation Of the elements
of our party along well estab-
lished Democratic lines, and
are at all times ready to meet
our brothers at the forks of
the road, where, in an ill-ad-
vised hour we parted COM
pany.
We are engaged in no eff
fort to destroy, but, on the
contrary, are doing our at
most to preserve the faith Of
our fathers ana keep nviolate
the hlStOr teachings ana
of a great party.
We believe that, without
the interference of men whose
chief ambitions are to obtain
office, the Democrats of The
nation would soon be able to
adjust their unhappy differ
ences and come together again
in political union.
While we are ready to meet
former brethren where we
parted, we feel that a man is
under no more obligations to
surrender his political convic-
lions ON fundamental ques-
ions than to compromise his
honor and convictions in 9TH
II respects. We therefore
lrge all Democrats in Ten
lessee, who do not believe in
he platform adopted at Chi
ago, to cooperate with Us in
up the National
Democratic party and perpe-
uity of the principles of true
Democracy. We advise all
uch Democrats at all times

Deafness Cannot be Cured

BY local applications, as they can
not reach the diseased portion of the
ear. There is only one way to cure
Deafness, and that is by constitutions
al remedies. Deafness is caused by
an inflamed condition Of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets infamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed Deafness
is the result, and unless the infiamma-
-tiOn can 5e taken out and this tube re-
stored to it's normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an infiamed con-
