The address of Mr.. Cunningham be-
fore the Veterans and Daughters of the
~Confedracy on the occasion of the con-
ferring of crosses of honor on Southern
Vindication' by Jefferson Davis, was
n of the most eloquent and stirring:we
have ever had the pleasure of listening
to. The address showed great research
as we'll as versatility on the part of the
speaker and dealt in sledge hammer
facts which are borne out by the re-
cords of both the federal government
and the Southern ~confedracy. The aud
fence greatly enjoyed it and we regret
that we cannot publish it in full. The
work of preparing it for the press is
too onerous for Mr.. Cunningham at this
time as he has been requested to do for
publication in our columns. We suggest
that the address be repeated at the next
meeting on June 3rd, and can assure
every n that a rich treat will be af-
forded all who come out. The audience
was small at the last meeting and an ad-

BUTIED HIS MONEY
 AND IT ROTTED.

Washington, Aug. 19.-C. D. Earl, of Morrilton, Ark, a mule buyer, came to Washington yes terday with package contain ing S10,000 in paper money re- sembling handful of autumn leaves. To-day he starts home happy with the information that practically all his money will be redeemed by the Treasury De partment, but vowing that he never again will use a tin can buried in the earth as safety deposit vault.
 Four years ago Earl buried the money in his garden. He got the habit of preserving his mon- ey this way, he said, before banks became common m this section. Recently he had ocea- sion to use some of the money and attempted to dig 1t up. He found the can rusted away and the money stuck together ln large mud ball. The bills crum- bled into bits when he tried to get them apart.
 Although told by neighbors that he might as well throw 1t away, and that the Government would not give him anything for 1t, MT. Earl decided to come to Washington. He brought a let ter from Charles C. Reid, member of Congress from his district, testifying to his character and standing i'll tile community. He also brought Lloyd Rainwater, cashier of the Bank of Morrill, ton.
 As soon as tile money Was placed i'll Treasurer Treats hands, he took 1t to Mrs. \. E. Brown, who for twenty-five years has been the expert of the Treas ury Department in deciphering the value of mutilated currency.
 After soaking apart some of the pieces with alum water, eX- amlning each fragment with a powerful lens, and putting to- gether the tattered particles, 1t was discovered that 1t would be possible to pay Mr. Earl praeti- cally all the riglnal amount.
 Mrs. Brown so far has manag- ed to count S9,000 of the bills.

AN APPEAL
 FOR FUNDS. Letter Sent 10 Democratic Edi- tors of the Country by the National Committee.

The News is in receipt of the following letter which explains itself and to which we desire to call the especial attention of our Democratic readers:
 Democratic National Com mittee, Headquarters, Auditor ium Annex, Chicago, August l9, 1908. Mir. J. P. Stafford, Editor The News, Springdale, Ark, Dear Sir:-The national com- mittee IS just inauguratlng the campaign which we trust will re- suit in the election of Demo- craey's candidates for president and viee-president, Hon. William J. Bryan and Hon. John W. Kern. We have a just cause, a strong platform, united party and candidates beyond criticism. We firmly believe that the senti- ment of the country IS with us, and if we can inaugurate the means to crystalize that sentiment at the ballot box III November the victory will be overwhelming ly ours.
 It is the peoples cause, and must succeed, If at all, by the en- ergy. earnestness, enthusiasm and money of the people.
 We are going to ask the people 10 contribute the funds needed to conduct clean campaign Of edu- cation and organization, on sim pie and economical lines, without a dollar of graft. and without a promise to any man ot special favors in case of success, except an honest and economical govern ment in the interest of all the people.
 We believe that the plain pee- pie. whose chief concern IS 10 see their government transmitted to their children with equality ot opportunity for all restored and perpetuated, will welcome this opportunity to inaugurate, III 1909. d national administration elevated to power by their modest contributions, rather than one bought and paid for by predatory wealth and selfish interests which always stand ready to place pub- lie servants and political parties under obligations 10 them as return for large contributions 10 their campaign funds.
 As one of the principal means for raising this fund we turn with confidence to the Democrat ic editors and publishers of the United States. We know and appreciate their loyal and un- selfish devotion to the party in every emergency, and We conti- dently rely upon them To cooper ate with us in this effort 10 col lect a fund that shall be an offer ing ot pure patriotism, free from selfish interest and untainted by nefarious designs.
 We lnclose herewith copy for an appeal to the subscribers and readers of your paper, to be giv- en space in your columns from now until election. You are at liberty to change the wording, If, in your judgment, the change will make it more effective or better meet local conditions. By reading it you will observe that the object Is to in9aee those among your readers who desire the triumph Of our cause to make a contribution to the funds of the national eommitte, 10 be trans mitted by you to the treasurer of our committee, Gov. (. X. Has kell, at Guthrie, Okla. You can greatly assist the movement by editorial indorsement and by per sonal influence. Ii is recom- mended that a list of the con- tributors, with or without the amounts paid, be carried in Sour f
The Springdale news., 1908-08-28

done by some of our papers, fac simi1e reproductions of the draft used III renitting be published Arrangements have been made to send, through you, to every sub- scriber to tue fund, a thoroughly Democratic acknowledgement of his contribution. which We be- lieve will be highly prized by every Democrat as a souvenir ot this campaign and testimonial to his financial support.
 We propose to make this effort national in it's scope, enlist1ng the assistance, if possible, of every Democratic and independ- ent paper, daily and weekly, in the United States, and If all will earnestly and cordially assist, we are confident the results will be very gratifying and satisfactory.
 Without assuming 10 dictate, We might say that two of the Democratic daily papers which have, to date, produced extraor- dinary results in this movement, the Buffalo Evening Times and the Memphis Commercial Appeal have pursued the same course. They printed the appeal, and then, before the appearance of their next issue, called up by phone a number of leading and working and contributing Demo- crats and got them to pledge such sums as they desired, to start the list of contributors. Both papers headed the list them selves, and by pursuing this course they were enabled, in the next issue after the publication of the appeal, to show such an encouraging response that the impetus thus given the movement has shown no abatement, and doubtless will continue to in- crease in volume until election.
 It Is needless to say that rec ord will be kept of the results produced through this newspaper movement and we confidently eX- peet 1t to be one of the most pro life sources of financial help to the party in the present cam paign.
 Will you not kindly oblige the undersigned and tile committees which they represent, and through them. the great Demo- cratic party and its candidates, by taking this matter up at once, with an earnest purpose to make an enviable record for your paper, and for the patriotic Democrats who get their political inspira- tion from it's columns, and thus put our party. with all it's agen- cies. under renewed obligations to you and the paper winch you publish.
 Kindly favor our committee by sending copy of your paper, from now until election, address ed to Hon. NJ. (. Wetn1ore, chair. man finance committee, Auditor ium Annex, Chicago, III.
 Yours for Bryan, Kern and victory,
 NORMAN E. MACK, Chairman Democratic National
 Committee.

 Finance Committee.

 Committee.
