The Louisville Courier-J Journal
says: GA needless little silverite
organ asks, why, if Free Silver be
dead, the Courier-Journal keeps on
saying so much about it?' Simply
because, though a Free Coinage
Act is as unlikely as an act of Con-
gress re-establishing African sla-
very, there is yet few demagogues
who seek to delude the people with
the idea, and there are people foolish
enough to listen to them. That is

child was recently born in
Hardeman County with a full
set of, teeth and heavy growth
of beard, and that at the age
of three days it stood erect
in the presence Of witnesses
and announced that seven
years would elapse before we
would have another rain.
Immediately after making
the prediction, the child is
said to have expired. Many
lengthy articles have appear
ed in the papers and the
BULLETIN has received nu-
merous letters of inquiry
concerning this prodigy,
some amusing and ridiculous,
others serious and solemn.
For instance one writer from
Cockett county asks if the
prediction is to be considered
in a local or general sense
if in the latter, he offers his

Wolf in Sleeps Clothing.

The following letter was written
by j. G. Holiday, of Mitchell Co.,
Texas, and published in the Mis-
souri, World, of Sept. goth. We
reproduce it by request of I. w.
Tate. Esquire. of the 18th district:
Developments during and since the
national campaign of 1896 show
very plainly to our mind that in
said campaign the object of the
Bryan '.reform" democracy was
not so much free silver as it was to
g. long it, ..o'rupt nj wicked Gays

ring the campaign OF 1896. the
8" fed" democracy was wolf in
sh -p's clothing. 1t had somewhat
tb, appearance &. sheep. 1t be-
ha d, %Omt til lie sheen 1t
grazed by day ans b; Il hy night
with the pOpulist herd. 1t requir
ed the sharp elr OF the most expe-
rienced herders to distinguish
it from s. sep. Some of the
herders of the plpulist fold swor
it was a sheep, while others de-
clared it was not a sheep. Tom
Watson said it was a wolf and he
ought to know, for he got chance
to see it snarl. Mr.. Watson being
a faithful herder, raised the alarm
and saved the populist brand.
This democratic wolf having had
his deceptive clothing torn off, he
now appears Enthusiastically a wolf,
sly, vicious, rapacious, awful!
The Bryan democracy is deter
mined to annihilate the peoples
party-to stamp it out in the South
and absorb it in the West. The alb
sorption is going on in the West
now under the insiduous fusion
scheme.
Where the Bryanites are strong
enough, they spurn fusion with the
populists; but where they are in g
hopeless minority, they plead pite
ously for fusion. And where they
fuse, they seek the advantage. In
some places where they are in the
minority they have the cheek tc
demand a complete surrender oil
the populists.
If the conduct of the Bryan democ.
racy will not be suicidal, we arc
mistaken.
Did you notice that the old moss.

who now belong to the purified
democracy, are now quiet and
staying in the background? This
is all understood, of course.
They are in much disrepute, and
must not therefore be too conspi.
cuous, you known.
Fellow populist, as sure as we live
we have no time to idle, if our party
is to survive and to succeed in its
holy mission. We must work and
watch, and faint not.
We must put on the whole armor
of pOpulism-the helmet which is
populist reason and doctrine, the
breastplate which is steadfast faith
in the reform cause, the shield
which is populist literature,
and the sword which is populist
arguments and the records of the
old parties.
Yes, as valiant soldiers in the
sacred cause of the oppressed and
suffering humanity, let US put on the
whole armor of poI4llism and go
forth to battle and to conquer in
the struggle OF right against wrong.
In time of peace, we must prepare
for war by sowing the country down
in populist literature.
The boys in the trenches must
work like Turks, every one of them.

REV. SAM JONES in a recen

speech at the Centennial said
,ss "In America there is SI42, 900,
600 of pension money scattered
around. | told a crowd of Yankees
up in Iowa some time ago that they
had licked US, but it was not their
courage, but our ignorance, that
did it. If we had known that we
had crippled 1900, 900 OF them we
would have rallied once more and
would have cleaned them up. There
is free pension money and free
schools. Some of the States have
free books, they want free silver,
and the next thing they'll want will
be free pitchforks for Ben Tillman's
brigade. When they get that, they
will want free clearinghouse.
Free is what catches. The curse
of America to-day is the paternalism
which expects the Government to
take care of everything. The only
way to make these things right is to
bring up your children right"

Hayti had yielded to German forces
contrary to its rights. The govern

but owing to the lack of promised
moral influence, the character of which
is not indicated in the proclamation, it
is obliged to accept the ultimatum. The
