them to the world. Its Providence
like vigilance wins the confidence of
those who by their daily pursuits or
by the tendencies of their minds are
prevented from watching over their
own and the common wants. Toward
it, therefore, the people turn for
steady enlightment and direction.
Man in general dislikes to submit to
being admonished, directed or ser
monized by special individuals. In
its action the press is an impersonal
agency, acting on the reason of each
individual, aud thus finds an easier
access to the public mind Every
one is aware that behind newspap-
er there are several individuals, whose
opinions and judgments the paper
expresses, but as their communities
tons reach the public in writing with
out signature the writer forgets the
individual behind the argument. He
reflects and celebrates more indie
pendently and Discriminatory on
what is thus suggested than could be
the case in oral and personal discus
sion.
In contemplating the press thus en-
throned in a power and pride of place
from which it can never be cast down
we hail it as that wonder working
agency which makes Knowledge ire
pressible and sends it forth with wing
ed speed through all the earth. 1t is
the friend of the oppressed and un
fortunate and the ally of every benef
cent cause. 1t is the embodiment o.
the spirit that rules the age and the
gauge of the intellectual and mora
altitude OF society.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1897-08-26

Testimony, which comes from every
center of finance, trade and commerce
in the country, is not calculated to
afford much encouragement to the
professional calamity bowler and the
crOaking Bryan followers. 1t all goes
to show that the great business party
of the country is the only one on
which the business men can depend.
The noise and buster and swagger
and the disregard of the nations wei
fare by the Democratic party prove
anew the absolute need OF the Repub-
lican organization. This need has
| been Established by the history of the
| past thirty-tiVe years, the most mar
Vicious years of the most marvellous
country on earth. 1t was at the be-
ginning of that period that the Dem
Ocratic party went to pieces ON the
slavery issue, and to-day it is repeat
ing its self-demOlitiOn. The Republi-
can party fought a great war, and
after it was over went to work to paw
the debt and to build up a new pros
perity. All through these years
sound money and protection were the
bulwarks Of its policy and work.
Such growth the world had never
known. Such wealth building no
nation had ever equaled Such
spreading of civilization marked a
new epoch in history.
The policy of the Republican party
was in operation until four years ago,
for, in spite of the election of Mr..
Cleveland in 1884, the Republicans
held one of the branches of Congress.
and headed off Democratic legislation.
But in 1892, the Democrats, for the
first time in thirty-fve years, got
control of every branch Of the govern
ment, and since then the country has
been full of trouble. There was not
year in their reign Of disaster in
which the government had enough
revenue to pay its running expenses
Instead of paying off debts the Dem
Ocratic administration created them.
1t reduced wages; closed factories;
brought ruin and want to the farmer,
and filled the country with foreign
goods, and brought dismay to bust
ness. The work of the Democratic
party is not the work of men who
ms L NKrn1lth oIl TO
of a nation. They are destroyers,
pullers down and iconoclasts.
The Republican party builds up.
1t constructs. 1t makes wealth. 1t
provides markets. 1t pays the high
est wages the world has ever known.
1t is the party of business and it is
going to win this fall in every state in
W hich an honest election is held.
The Republican. [volume] (Oakland, Md.) 1877-current, 1897-08-26

Il HAVE never in the past wavered
in the belief, nor do | now, that in
the end we will be possessed of a
banking and currency system so
strong as to make impregnable the
country's credit. 1t is possible that
before the nation financial structure
rests upon foundation firm as the
eternal hills, the American people will
be called up to pass through the aw-
full experience and loss which would
follow in the wake of unchecked pap
er and silver tiatism. But at last, no
matter how prolonged the struggle or
great the sutlerings with the acquies-
cence Of all, the monetary principles
which accord with the worlds bust
ness experience, financial research
and every dictate of common honesty,
will here prevail in complete and en-
during triumph. From Compt. Eek

everything made subservient to pro-
noting his chances for reelection to
the Senate.
What kind of harmony can posi-
bly, exist between men, who, fighting
for principles last year, strained every
nerve to down Mr.. German and his
associates?
Does he propose to repudiate Mr..
Bryan with his political and financial
heresies, and accept the doctrine of
honest money and liberty, regulated
by law? If so, why did he not embrace
it in his platform? He wants to direct
attention from himself and his obiec-
tionable and vacillating career by
dilating upon and magnifying the
Republican party's shortcomings.
He seems to have entirely forgot
ten, when he speaks of the Demo
cratic party's twenty-eight years of
control, that the incapacity and cor
ruption of its managers has wiped
out it's boosted majority and brought
to it merited defeat.
Il, for one, do not propose to accept
harmony upon the terms which he
offers. l prefer the Republican party
to hold its power rather than see the
State for the next six years the prey
of faction OF the Democratic party,
powerless fer good. but eager and
potent for evil"
Mr.. Eugene lowering says: THE
election is settled. Without attempt
ing to refer to the platform in general
it cannot fail to be a matter of regret
to all Democrats who believe in sound
money that the action of the conven-
ton of Wednesday should so com
pletely ignore this important ques-
ton. That action settled in advance
the result of the election this fall, es
pecially as this is involved in the cleo
ton of United States Senator, where
one vote may save the country from
the disasters of free coinage Mary.

THE 'unwritten law as interpre-
ted by Judge Falconer, of Lexington,
KY, and Governor Atkinson of West
Virginia is bearing fruit. Joe Jones
met his wife walking down the pike
with Will Rankin, near Lexington,
and blew his head off with a shotgun.
He had advanced one step on the
Judge and the Governor, and held
that whenever a husband caught
another man with his wife he had a
