The following is an extract from
aspeech recently delivered by Hon.
Henry g. Davis, at Fairmont, this.
State:
The founders of the Republic
were far-seeing men. Washington.
and his associates established a
government upon new principle
Upon the consent of the govern
ed. They founded a republic not
for a day, but Tor all time. The
Declaration of Independence, the
Constitution, and the basis of our
laws are all heritages derived from
them. While Washington, Adams,
Hamilton, Jefferson and other
statesmen of their times differed
widely on many subjects of public
policy, they were all united on the
question of a double standard of
gold and silver. They provided
that these metals should be the
money of the country; that there
should be free coinage for both,
and the use of gold and silver con-
tinued from Washington to Grants
administration. Under the double
standard established by the found
ers of the government we prosper
ed as no other nation did, and why
should we abandon a system that
has served as SO we'll?
In 1873 the Republicans demon
itized silver. Business depression
began, and before theyear closed q
panic came. For five years there
was general distress; but in 1888
when specie payments were resum-
ed, and thu coinage of silver was
partially restored, conditions i'm
proved, and we had what we called
good times, until the coinage of
silver was again suspended.
Gold and the great money power
have ever been close friends. Silver
and Democracy have always been
allied. England and Germany
gave way to the influence of long
established wealth, and suspended
the coinage of silver. They crea-
ted the gold standard, and the Re-
publicans have ado pied it. Until
then gold and silver had maintain
ed their parity and no one had
thought of its disturbance. After
this demonstration of silver, the
bullion value began to decline
Will it be denied if the foremost
countries of the world should dis
card the use of gold as money, and
treat it as they have silver, that the
bullion value of gold would de-
crease and silver Increase? / do
not fear the free coinage of both
metals as much as do the placing
of this country on single stand
ard"

The Money Question Must be
Settled.

1t is a source Of great grati6ca-
ton that the Democratic party
through it's present leadership is
occupying the position on the
money question which it does.
The efforts of the Republican
leaders, to eliminate it as an issue,
only intensifies the determination
of the Democrats to steadfastly
persist in giving it the eonsidera-
ton which it demands.
The Democratic Campaign Book
just out, speaks this way of the
money question:
HThe batteries of the monetary
reformers must not be silenced
nor domestic issues lost sight of
because we have been engaged in
a foreign war. The battle of the
standards must go on. The free
coinage of silver must remain the
dominant issue in the coming cam
paign. There is no division in the
country upon the subject of war.
except SO far as it may affect our
domestic finances, provided the
war is prosecuted for it's declared
purpose of freeing Cuba and re-
lieving it's starving population.
The enemies of binettalism are
now making every effort to distract
the attention of the people from
the money issue to issues that
grow out of the war.
"This important question-fal
more important to the American
people at this time than it has
been in the past-must not be lost
sight of in the present war. The
battle of the standards must go on
and while we are overthrowing
tyranny in Cuba we must not for
get to give a singing blow to gold
plutocracy at home"

NPenniless George. %

The Parkersburg Journal and
other Republican newspapers refer
in a derisive way to Geo. I. Neal es
"Penniless George" The Repub-
lican party is SO allied with the
money powers and SO stepped in
corruption by the use of money
that ability and deserving man
hood count for nothing in their
eyes. In fact they seem to be
shocked at the very mention of a
poor man for political Office In
olden daye it was not thus. Has it
now come to pass that a man must
grow old in gathering up large
supply of i'll gotten gains before he
is permitted to fill an exalted and
important position in the land?
Congress is rapidly becoming a
strong society of very rich men.
What we want is more hustling
young manhood in it-men who
born of humble circumstances.
have gone out and conquered
through their ability and energy.
IF there ever was nan whose
life should appeal to the manhood
of the American citizen he is the
Democratic nominee for Congress.
This great country is interested as
the home of the free and independ-
emit thought and action not to be
circumscribed by the ownership of
dollars. And the party that would
look down upon a man because he
is not rolling in the filth of po-
litical corruption as represented
by the almighty dollar deserves the
defeat which surely awaits the Re-
publican party at the coming cleo
ton. Every old man in this Dis
trict should vote for Neal as an en-
enlargement for his own boy;
every young man should see that
Neal is elected as an appreciation
of the grand institutions under
which we live and through which
pluck and ability is given an op-
portunity to exert itself.
Rally round Neal, boys, and win
a glorious victory for young man
hood and American citizenship

TIE WAR!

We are willing to leave the
management of the war now go
ing on, in the hands of the adj
ministration, and are satisfied all
will be well in the end. We are
too busy to assist in formulate
ing the policy of the next CAM
Paign; we are willing to let our
friends attend to their own bust
ness But we are not going to
be too BUSY to treat one and all
with attention and courtesy
when any of our friends or
strangers appear at our store
and inquire about prices of pro-
duce they may have for sale or
groceries they may wish to buy.
We are in the business to stay
and we have therefore met with
good success, and thank the
people for past patronage, and
will endeavor in the future to
merit your favor and patronage.
Yours truly,

Some fellow, too cowardly to
sign his name to his article, pub
fishes TRADE of abuse of the editor
of this paper, in the State Gazette
of Friday. because the Register
commented upon the present man
agement of our public schools. by
the present Republican Board of
Education; and winds up with ex-
tolling Mr.. Poffenbarger. But
when he states that we have "the
best public schools we ever had, "
and that sit is admitted by all, " the
writer simply states that which
everybody knows is untrue. If it
was not for the bright young As
sistant Principal, the Lord only
knows what the schools would be
anyhow, under its present head.
It looks very much like the article
was written in the Gazette Office,
by the Pomeroy end of the paper.

about a hundred people at the
Court House Saturday night.
While very pleasant and de-

new, but followed in the line of all
Republican speakers. in claiming
everything for the Republican par
ty, and when one heard his speech,
he heard the speech of all other
Republican speakers, because they
all follow along the same line.
However, he did not have the
termerity to proclaim that "pros-
perity" was here. He said, how
ever, that prosperity was coming"
-"that it was on the road" but
did not give the date of its arrival.
