TEMPORARY DEFEAT,
SAYS JAS. G. DUDLEY

The Democratic party has withstood
defeat before. 1t survived the civil
war; it will survive this defeat be-
cause the principles for which it bat
ties will live long after the Republican
party, with its mercenary horde, shall
have been forgotten. Purge the party
of all traitors who would sacrifice party
and country in the interest of trusts
and sordid wealth.
Rally around the banner of pure
Democracy, and victory will come to
us as it did to the fathers.
JAMES G. DUDLEY,
Democratic National Committeeman
from Texas.

HORACE BOIES SUGGESTS
A WAY TO REORGANIZE

My belief is we should drop l6 to l..
Let the money question rest while con-
ditions remain as at present; organize
Democratic clubs in every voting pre-
cinct to send delegates to county, from
county to state, and from state to a
National Convention of delegates to
meet periodically and formulate a plat
form for the party. This should be
based on principles enunciated in our
Declaration of Independence. Insist
on strict construction of the sole
source of legislative power in con-
gress. No subjugation of unwilling
people by force. One form of govern
ment for all.

MONETARY LEGISLATION.
Continued Irom FIrat PAGE.

that labor expended on raw ma
teriaI in fitting il for use enhances
it's value Silver to bo used as
money IS no exception to this
principle; in the coin il il worth
more, by small per cent, than ii
is in the bullion, because Of the
increase in It's convenience. Again,
by depnving silver coin Of its le-
gal tender quality--in other words
by disqualiiyingi for the payment,
of debts except by the consent OF
the creditor-its desirableness,
that is to say its value, is some-
what impaired because Of Its in
conyeniency. Yet, notwithstand-
ing every possible variety Of inter-
meddling with silver on the part
of legislation, it will still remain
an object of supreme desire among
mankind and discharge the duties
of standard of value along by the
side Of gold; that is to say it will
be money.
The democratic idea of "dou-
bic standard of value" is an alb.
surdity; and yet it isno more non-
sense than the republican idea of
"single gold standard" The
fact is there can be only one stand
ard Of value, for iftwo be attempt
cd they will neutralize each other
and we will have no standard at
all, There is and can be only one
standard of value, and that is
money, not gold nor any other sub
stance, and money is represented
both by gold and silver alike.

FAvORS SUNDAY BALL.
1t Would be Big Advertisement For
Vinita.

EDITOR CHIEFTAIA:-B Before the
big controversy now on with refer
encee to Sunday base ball is closed
| want to be heard. Ispend most
of my time on the streets and I
claim to know the trend Of public
sentiment, A great majority Of
Vinita people, church members
and all are in favor of Sunday
ball playing. Their logic is spec
ious. One professional man told
me yesterday that Sunday base
ball was superinduced by predis-
position to innocent hilarity and
was a harmless mania for amuse-
ment you understand. "a business
man told me that his clerks were
all very tired when Saturday night
came on after whole week Of
heavy business and that they just
must have rest and recreation and
if they did not get it on Sunday
they just couldn't get it at all.
The tired feeling of the clerks is
an unanswerable argument. Then
again the base ball enthusiasts are
generally the busiest men in town.
The curbstone politician and box
whittier care nothing about base
ball; on the other hand it is the
busy ones who get up Sunday
games in order that they and their
tired help may have surcease of
of toll for one brief day in the
week.
AS to the disturbance of those
who live near the park, | suggest
that they might visit in other
parts of the city or take drive to
the country on Sunday afternoons
when there is ball game in pro-
gress. 1t will be a great advertise
ment for Vinita TO have the Dallas
Texas and the Parsons Kansas
teams and their friends from inter-
mediate points here next Sunday.
Many Of these people are capital.
lists and might like the country
well enough to stay when they see
the town and the artesian well
and the ball park. Sundry ball
viii bring very desirable class
ofpeOple here and that matter
ought not to be overlooked.

THE sEABoARD AIR LINE.
Its Immense Consolidated Interests.

President John Shelton Williams, OF
the Seaboard Air Line system, has
made the following announcement
"Our plans for the formation Of the
Sesboard Air Line system. embracing
between 2. 800 and 3. 900 miles Of road,
have been successfully completed.
I'VE have finished track laying on
the new line from Richmond via Pc.
tersburg to Ridgeway, N. O.. lO3 miles,
and Saturday will witness the compile
tion of the 90.mile extension from
Oheraw. s. O., the present southern
terminus Of the Seabosrd Air Line, TO
the junction with the Florida Central
and Peninsular Railroad, south Of
Columbia, s. O.. thus completing q
new all.rail line from Richmond Va,
to Tampa. Fla
Under our plan Of consolidation the
total amount Of bonds outstanding on
the combined system will be at Sl9. 900
per mile, with s7 900 per mile Of pre-
ferred stock, and $4,000 per mile OF
common stock. The total amount Of
stock outstanding on the new Seaboard
Air Line system will be about s44. 0OO,.
900. Neither our syndicate nor any
railroad company in the entire system,
nor any allied corporation owes one
dollar to any bank. bankers, or trust
company in New York. Philadelphia, or
Boston.
THE actual aggregate earnings OF
the several properties composing the
new Sesboard system for the twelve
months ending March /, 1900 exceed
SO. 45O 900; net earnings, after the pay
ment Of operating expenses and taxes,
exceed 81, 6G0. 900, and the fixed charges
on the system for the same period, ill
cluding interest on all outstanding
bonds and rentals amount approximate
ly to 81 ,46O. 900. leaving a net surplus
for the twelve months. over and above
interest charges, Of 81 200. 600. Interest
charges on the entire amount Of new 4
per cent. bonds. which are to be issued
under the plan Of consolidation. will
amount TO only about 800. 600.
ut is thus seen that without making
any allowance for the 200 or 300 miles
of new road. which are to be opened
for business in the next few days, and
without making allowances for the in
creased earnings and reduced expenses
which will naturally follow the linking
toQe ther into one compact system Of the
eighteen heretofore disjointed railroads
comprising IL. the earnings Of the past
twelve months are enough TO take care
of the interest on all the new bonds to
be issued, and yet have o margin Of
$500, 900, or sufficient to pay per cent.
on the entire amount Of new preferred
stock to be issued under the plan Of con.
solidation. "
Nothing has yet beer given ont with
reference to extending the line from
Richmond to Washington.
