Sound Money Democrats

New York July 2.-William By
mum, chairman Of the Gold Democ-
ratio Committee, hopes to be able to
take the field when the campaign
opens III the Middle Western States.
1t was in these States that the gold
standard Democracy was founded
and made its best showing in the
campaign of 1896, and Mr.. Bynum
says vigorous effort will be made
to strengthen the party in all these
States, and especially in Kentucky,
Iowa and Ohio.
Gin kentucky" says Mr.. Bynum
'Fthe procpests' are bright. The
sound money Democrats will hold
their convention on July IA. Former
Secretary of the Treasury Carlisle
will preside and Gen. Buckner and
Mr.. Breckenridge will be delegates.
The man it dominates for the State
office in issue will be elected. The
Republicans have already appointed
a committee to confer with the
National Democratic Convention,
and the party will indorse our nom
inee. This will insure his election.
"In Ohio and in Iowa we are very
strong. In Iowa we have with us
the best and most influential men
of the State. The issue has been
very clearly drawn there by the
fusion of the free silver Republicans,
the Bryan Democrats and thirds
of the Populists. As one-third of
the Populists have revolted from
the fusion party, the prospects are
good for large gains in the ranks of
the sound money Democrats. Mr.
Boies has practically left the Bryan
Democrats, because he does not
want free coinage at l6 to l.
cit is the desire of the committee
that the National Democrats in
these three States place separate
tickets in the field, and that a vigo-
rous campaign in behalf OF sound
money be made in each. In case
the State organizations in these
States determine to nominate sep
arate tickets, it is the purpose of the
National Committee to give them
the earnest support of the national
organization.
owe shall hold a meeting of the
executive committee national democ-
racy in headquarters here on July
81. AT that meeting the campaigns
in Kentucky, Ohio, Connecticut and
other States will be considered.
Mr.. Bynum said that in his recent
trip through the South he was very
much encouraged, as he found there
much more inviting field of labor
than he expected to find.

Quoted by Rev. w. M. Norment.
A large crowd was present to pay
the last respects to life which had
been devoted to the amelioration of
suffering humanity and to the adj
vancement Of the cause of christian
ity. Mrs. McCutchen was born IL

it's confines until the day of her
death. Her maiden name was Kirk

to Mr.. Jack Cooper, by whom she
had one child; second to Rev. J. Z.

Senator Harris.

The condition of Senator Harris
remains unchanged. The doctor
feels hopeful that the invalid may
be removed to the mountains of Ten
nessee the latter part of this week
if the weather moderates at all.
The intense heat has been greatly
against the senator's recovery. A
cool spell just now will do the aged
invalid more good than all the med
icine which can be given him.
1t seems to be cruel to predict the
fatal termination of ones illness,
but it is difficult to see how Senator
Harris will ever be able to resume
his duties in public life again. He
has never in the past had to inquire
if his health would or would not per-
nit him to do anything. His has
been a frame of iron, and nerve of
steel. Both seem gone or fast going
at last.
After his return from the South
he looked almost we'll again, but
his improvement was only Temporal
ry. He has continued to grow weak
er and weaker with each succeeding
day until now he is almost as fragile
as when taken to the Gulf coast.
He may get strong enough to
take the trip to the Tennessee
Mountains, but his friends fear the
worst soon after. He is longing to
get to Cumberland Plateau and
seems fretting for it, and faint
echo of his once indomitable spirit
may yet lift him there in spite of
all infrmities, but those who love
him will be shocked to see his vast
ed form.
His mind is as clear as ever. His
condition is entirely different from
that of Secretary Sherman, whose
body is sound but whose intellect
is clouded. 1t is strange that these
two old confreres in the Senate al
ways different and differing on all
points in life, should have succumb-
ed at the same time and in such to-
tally different ways. They were
both giants in their ways and in
their days as well. The fought on
