PATCH is the Great Democratic
Weekly Newspaper of the Country.

William Jennings BRYAN.
There has never been a political
campaign that will equal in import
ance that of the one TO be fought
next year. The republican party,
backed by the money power of this
country and Europe. is alert and ag-
gressive. Flushed with the victory of
three years ago il will seek by every
means in its power to maintain IL
supremacy.
Democrats must be up and dol ~.
They must wage an unceasing war
upon their enemies. In no better and
more effective way can this be done
than by the circulation of good,
sound democratic newspaper. The

similar opinions, is on the other side
Of this aisle A man has a right to

Concerning SECRETARY Gage and the

that any man within. the confines of
this republic would have the gall TO
address such f. letter as that to any
one nf these illustrious statesmen?
OF course, Gage could not keep Hep
burn from writing this letter, but he
could have rebuked him for it. Il
was his duty as an American citizen
and chief financial officer of this gov
eminent to have rebuked him, but
Mr.. Gage seems to have thought the
letter right and proper, Andrew
jackson took the deposits OF the
United States government away from
a lot OF corruptionists just as this
man Hepburn, and put them in the
hands OF honest men.
Instead of rebuking Hepburn,
Gage did the specific thing that ne
wanted him TO do. and conferred
upon his bank the greatest favor
that was ever conferred by any gov
ernment officer upon any bank since
banks were instituted.
Hepburn demanded this largess
from Mr. Gage because he contribut-
ed Doodle i'll 1896.

Gomera, one of the Canary islands, Is a small island containing about 12,000 inhabitants. It is exceedingly rugged in formation, and the deep gorges and rayines which separate it's mountain ranges are unbridged, and, therefore, 1t may be necessary to travel several miles in order to reach a point only few hundred yards distant. There feTz= ro cbviate the necessity of doing tI;z a inhabitants have developed wh4s. ing language, by means of which tive men standing on opposite sides of the gorge can convey their meaning to each other. The teeth and fingers are used as we'll as the lips. Communica- tions are made by notes in the whistle corresponding to syllables. The Whis- tie, of course, carries much farther, and is much more distinct, than artic- ulate speech could possibly be under the eircumstances.-Stray Stories.

A curious accident took place at Brookfeld, Ind. A local freight train was backed into siding to allow a fast freight train to pass. The switch was left open however, and the fast freight, travelling at the rate of thirty miles an hour, dashed into it. The crews of both trains jumped The i'm pact of the collision was so severe as to drive the tender of the stationary train off it's truck, and telescoping a cattle car, which was loaded with coal. it rested half on the top of the third car On the fast freight a ear loaded with hogs was teleseoped by one load ed with shelled corn, and the animals not killed in the collision were smoth- cred by the corn. It is said that the locomotives are so interloeked that dynamite will be required to separate them.
