Even Charles A. Towne, the Silver

Populiats for Vice Fresident, last year,
and who came near being taken as
Bryan's running mats on the Demo-
cratic ticket, is giving up his free
silver coinage dslusions. when my

of silver" he said in New York City
Tuesday, it was not because we had
any preference for the white metal, but
because we realized that more money
was needed with which to do the bust
ness of the country. Since that time
there have been not only large dis
coyeries of gold, but the cyanide pro-
cess of refining the metal has been dis J.
covered, so that the volume OF money
has been Increased to meet the necessi-
ties" Mr.. Towne also expressed the
belief that IL present conditions CON
tinue the question of free silver coinage
will not figure to any great degree In
the campaign Of 1901. Aftor this de
liyerance, Mr. Bryan may well exclaim,
"Thou, too, Brutus?'' He seems
doomed to be left almost alone in his
silver delusions.

Our oroat trade In Great BRITAIN.

The London Statist, leading finan-
cial authority Of Great Britain, says in
Its issue for last week:
The figures OF our own trade with
America conclusively show the enor.
nous profits which the United States IL
making In foreign trade.
For the first six months Of the pres
emit year our Imports from the United
States have been nearly 989. 600, 600
(s345, 600. 000), as against little over
f50. 000, 600 1926, 900, 000l in 1900 while
our exports to the United States were
worth only $1,000, 600 1885, 600, 000l, as
against 80. 800. 600 ts4s, 200, 000l. This
means that for the year to June Both
We have bought Glss, 600, 600 (s7aO, 900, :

while they have bpueht Of US Els, coo, 600

as against el19, coo, 600 1886, 900, OO0j
for the calendar year Of 1900.
These figuree show what an enorm
ously profitable customer OF ours Great
Britain Is. They mean, as the London
Statist says, that England will have to
supply us considerable amount oil
gold In settlement, and this gold will
do US great amount Of good.
But despite the practical logic Of
these figures, there Is large and fool

which delights In showing hostility t.

The latest political news from Ohio
Is to the effect that the POLITICAL con-
tingent In that State known az the
Bryan Democrats, dissatisfied at the
action Of the recent Democratic State
Convention 10 repudiating Bryan and
FREQ silver coinage. win hold q State
convention of their owp, o call for which
has been issued. for Columbus on July
3lst. The object of the convention lie
to nominate full State ticket. in op-
position to the ticket nominated by
tho Democratic convention. 1t 10 added
that Congressman Dick, secretary Of
ths Republican National COMMITTEES, is
engineering this Bryan Democratic
movement, and the information Is
plausible. No doubt Congressman Dick
will render all aid in his power, fnan.
cisl and otherwise. to any movement
having for Its object the defeat Of the
Democratic party.
However, " the Democratic party Is
to have an open fight with It's Pcpulistic
element, the battle may as well be
fought this year, so az to be disposed
1t before next Presidential campaign,
or, II possible. before the Congressional
selections of next year. The sooner 1t
ia over, the sooner will the political
lines throughout the country be once
more faulty drawn as between the Re-
publican and Democratic parties.
The Democratic party has no occasion
10 fear the result Of battle with It's
late Populisric allies. In 1862, the
lines were drawn rs sharply as it was
possible TO draw them, Mr. Cleveland
being the candidate Of the Democratic
party for President, while Gen. James
ID. Weaver was the candidate OF the
Populists. Gen. Weaver received
1,0i1, 02s Of the popular vote, and %
electoral votes; Mr.. Cleveland received
5,556.9iS OF the popular vote and 277
electoral votes, and was elected. -Four
years later, when the Democratic organ
ization was swallowed by the Populists,
the Republicans swept the country,
and again In 1900.
These comparisons show that the
Democratic party Is infinitely stronger
without its Populistic alliances than
with tbem. At any rate, the latter
simply invite defeat, and II the Demo
cratic party is to be defeated in AMI
event, defeat with honor is preferabl,
to defeat after surrender Of Demo
cratic principles and an alliance thu
brings dishonor upon the party organi
cation.

NOT A CENT
Will Anybody Attending
the Convention Be Ask
ed To Subscribe.

Some people seem in some way to
have gotten into their head the idea
that subscription of some kind, for
some purpose, would be asked for at
the Great Good Roads convention to
be held in Hopkinsville July 10-11.
We want it distinctly understood that
NO PERSON attending the convention
will be asked to subscribe ONE SINGLE
CENT FER ANY PURPOSE WHATEVER.
The purpose of this convention is
simply and solely to discuss the
matter of road improvement and to
arouse the public to full realization
of the importance of immediate
action, and to show the delegates
how a good, modern road should be
constructed and to inform them
accurately as to the cost of same, to
the end that all the public roads in
this section may be put in such a
condition that they can be used
twelve months in the year instead of
only eight or nine months as is now
the case in many sections.
Nobody in anyway connected with
the convention has any ak to grind
and everybody taxing part in it is
actnated solely by desire to pro.
mote the interests of all the people.
Not only will there be no subscrip.
ton Of any sort asked, but on the
contrary delegates and visitors to
the convention will be entertained at
the expense Of the people Of Hop
kinsville and Christian county.
Nobody will be asked for any
money; rest assured OF that fact. So
deeply interested in the matter of
good roads are the people of Hop
kinsville and Christian county that
they cheeffully put up the money to
bear the expense of this convention
in the hope Of being able to serve
the entire state by helping to arouse
the people on this vital matter. The
people of the city and county invite
everybody to come and be their
guests on July 10th and 18th, assur-
ng them Of most cordial welcome
