The only successful way to re-organize the dem

Gratis every day who frankly tell me that they

this l would encourage every true democrat to
assist in defeating the democratic ticket this
year that our patty may not be dlsgraced any
longer by such shameful acts of false leaders.
Now, Mr.. Editor, do not wish to take up too
much CT your time and space, but knowing how
shameful the democratic party has been be-
trayed in our county this year, consider it my
duty to call the attention of other democrats to
the facts and inform the general public of the
disgraceful methods that have been employed tO
advance the personal interests of a few ring.
leaders. They could have gone about this in &
manly way and put up a good ticket well as
not. There are plenty of good men in the dem.
ocratic party, but it seems it was not the good
men the prime movers were after-it was some
thing else, and they undoubtedly got it. II
makes real democrat blush to know that he
has been sold by the ring for what they deemed
him worth, or for whatever they could get, and
the thus outraged citizens of this great free
country will never sanction it, but will record
their vote of opposition in most emphatic
terms.
The silver republicans of this county are to bs
envied for the splendid ticket they have put up
Every candidate is a representative man of the
community where he lives. and the legislative
ticket particularly deserves special comment
1t Is my personal knowledge that all three OF

the gentlemen are thorough silver men and a
credit to any country. The goldbug argument
OF the democratic ring is as absurd as 1t is FALSE
Every resident in this county knows how the
vote stood in '96 for w. J. Bryan (9s per cent in
his favor) and a republican county at that!
Ask them to explain this fact when they tell
you that the silver republicans are goldbugs.
Judging from the way the democratic party in
this county has been handled this year. hon.
estly believe that majority of the two per cent
which voted against Bryan two years ago were
democrats such as fixed things up for the pres
ent campaign.
Democrats, do not permit yourselves to be
sold like sheep. Stand up for your rights and
demand that this sort OF cathop machine work
must stop and stop right now. The advise Of
a true democrat is to vote the outrage down,
and the more completely you do this the better
it will be for our party two yeurs from now.

FUTURE OF SILVER.

Among the several questions that are

today, the cause of silver forms an all

tory he commerce of this country will
increase to such an extent that-not be
United States alone, but other CONNER

increase the use OF silver as medium

Cuba, are impor ant factors to the COM

keys to the Gulf of Mexico, and with
the compile ion Of the Nicaraguan canal,
which is now accepted as certainty.
the commerce between the Pacific and
Atlantic will become v@ry extensive and
of great value to the United States
The far most important acquisition by
this coun ry, however, are the Hawai-. n
and Philippi 9 Islands. The chain be-
tween the two great continents will be
complete and our commerce on the Pa
cific will outrival anything ever known.
Progressive natioi s like Great Britain,
Russia, Germany and France have ac-
quired territory in the far east and the
whirl of progress is being pushed into
the interior of Asia. Railroads will be
constructed everywhere and those pro-
ductive countries opened to the world.
The Philippine and Hawaiian Islands
will undergo a great change. Progress

fields for inves ments and engage in va

SILVER REPUBLICAN TICKET.

From top to bottom the ticket is made
up of capable and upright men, who, if
elected. will look well to the duties Of
their several stations, and tho citizens OF
this county will be assured of good
and economical government of their
public affairs. No better silver men
can be found anywhere than those com
posing the Legislative ticket, and the
citizens of the county may rest assured
that If they elect DR.. Power and Messrs
Dingwall and Parker, no gold-bug will

state by their consent-or If they can

out of place to advance silver argu-

everybody is known to be in favor OF
free coinage, and the men who would
vote against silver and their own inter
ests are so few that no sensible person
would even notice them. The vote of
this county two years ago obliterates
any and al doubts as to the silver SEN

able distinction that can only he gained
10y n to,dtrr ~ the battlefield. Several
reasons ar. being advanced, one OF the
most silly Of which ia that the governor
Of this sis'e is IA populist. The writer's
know hat is not tendbie, Tor many Of the
regiments which have already gone or
have started To 20 to the Philippines are
from states which did not cast their cleo
Bryan $4,000 majority, and yet the
First Colorado is on it's way to Manila.
The Post INTEL sencer OF Seattle has n
long Sunday Article showing the reason
to be- because Colonel Wholly vas only a
lieutenant in the regular army, and his
volunteer rank would raise him over cap
tains. majors and lieutenant colonies in
the regular army that would be in the
command, and that they would be thus
hum;latei. II our regular army is fl
cered 10y such silly pated men, then is
West Point more than failure, and ev-
cry officer who thinks himself 80 hum
bled is not lit to be a corporal; and if a
general officer listens to such rot in choos'
ing his command he should himself be
dismissed from the service.
Another foolish idea advanced in the
same number of the P-I. is that there
are number of rich mems sons in the
regiment, and they are kept at home 30
that tie darlings would not get hurt. II
there is anything in that their nobby
friends had better get them out OF the
ranks as soon as possible, for if the boys
find ont they are the cause OF the regi-
ment being kept at home, they will be in
more danger than they would il they
met the Spanish army. But the whole
thing is absurd. The fact is, it is neces
sary that one regiment be kept on this
coast to fill the place OF regular soldiers
who have been sent away, and 1t just
happened to fall to the lot OF the First
Washington volunteers. From what We
hear of them, there is not volunteer
regiment in the field that can more nearly
fill the place of regiment OF regulars.
The Z. l. and all other papers OF this
coast which are trying to breed dlscon-
tent in the minds of our soldier boys are
not their friends. Ii our army is but
vast political machine, then is the ma
ton in sore distress.
