Independent of other nations, In the Intensity of feeling likely to arise It Is to be seriously apprehended that a disruption of the democratic party might occur. Certainly no substantial following could be secured for the doctrine among eastern democrats. They might not vote the republican ticket for other reasons (believing that the republican party stands for other Issues that are detrimental to the country), but the democrats In the east would not, In my opinion, vots

for It.

Refnses to He a famlLlalo. “It ought not to be necessary for me to say anything of a personal nature I find myself, however, spoken of here and there as a possible candidate—not very seriously or prominently, but sufficiently to attract attention If I should fall to notice It. It sometimes affects one’s Influence In cases like the present. I have no personal motive Ir. entering this fight. I have said that I would not be a candidate. I will add, copying the emphatic language once used by the late Geh Sherman (I think I remember It correctly): T will not run If nominated, nor serve If elected. 1 I am not foolish enough to suppose that any eastern man could be nominated by this conventionmuch less that I could. I sympathize thoroughly with the feeling in the south that has caused this uprising and will find Its expression at Chicago, but as to the principles which the uprising has brought forth and the issues being framed I entirely disagree. WILLIAM C. WHITNEY." REPLY TO WHITNEY. Hon. Wharton ItarUer Takes Issue with the Ex-Secretary. New Y'ork, June 24.—Wharton Barker lias written a reply to the statement of lion. \V. C. Whitney, whieh wns published on Monday morning. Mr. Barker

says:

"Air. Whitney's statements are so misleading and fallaclal that they really should not go unchallenged. It Is fortunate that he represents so few of the members of the democratic party who entertain the belief to which he gives expression. The people have been misled and deceived too long. They have believed, hoped and doubted, their condition gradually growing from bad to worse, until the unalterable conviction has settled upon them that they have been used by such men as Mr. Whitney, not in the advancement of the Interests of the people at InFgo, hut merely as a part of a great piece of machinery to further their own selfish ends. HIs appeal will be of no avail. Cleveland could not stem the tide, with all the power of office at Ids command; Whitney cannot do It, even though backed by the combined u ealth of England. ".Mr. Whitney declares that we must remain subservient to Great Britain; that we must not think of restoring bimetallism until the British government, controlled ly the creditor classes, expresses willingness to cooperate with us to that end. No steps must be taken to restore bimetallism until we have the consent and approval of these who, prompted by selfish motives and by the hope of enrichment and selfaggrandizement at the expense of the pror'.uclng classes, have advocated the gold standard with the avowed purpose of doubling the burden of all debts." We -Must Not \yait"The creJItor classes of Great Britain will never advocate bimetallism until they have succeeded In confiscating the property of all their debtors. Then, as owners of property, their Interests will be (n restoring bimetallism and raising prices, but not before. If wo fruit upon Great Britain we will wait until tho property of our Industrial classes has been confiscated by foreign money lenders; until our producing classes have become bankrupt and reduced to pdVcHy, misery and despair, and until the foreign bondholders who lay tribute upon them have given place to foreign landlords ready to lay tribute upon us In a new role. "Yet Air. Whitney tells us that any move on our part to lift the yoke of vassalage lo Great Britain and free our producing tic ses from tho owners' tribute that now" nsts upon them must end In disaster; that

As United States district attorney for tho X^oulsville district for five years, beginning In 1865, he proved so etfictent that he was appointed solicitorgeneral of the United States In 1873 President Grant sent his name to the senate for the place of attorney-general, but the senate refused to confirm ihe nomination. The following year Mr. Bristow became secretary of the treasury. Since 1876 he had practiced law In New York city.]

The other night 50 persons wearing various kinds of masks entered the home of Adam Price and wife, near West Fork, seized the old couple and lock them in their bedroom, after advising them to keep quiet, and then they removed tlie furniture and carpet from tlie main room and spent the night in dancing. Upon taking their departure they left the old folks still imprisoned, it was not until 6 o'clock that Mi" ami Mrs. Price were released by a neighbor, and then, in the middle of the tloor of the room used by the dancers, were found 200 pounds of flour, 100 pounds of meat and an old rag in which was wrapped $50, with a request that the old couple accept it in recognition of their 50tli wedding anniversary. During the attempt to remove the county scat of Clark county from Charlestown to Jeffersonville, thc latter took upon itself the charge of the purchase of grounds and cost of erection of a new jail and courthotise, and issued bonds in three series for that purpose, the last series being for $87,000. Recently it was determined to refund these bonds at a lower rate of interest, und Newton 11. Myers, a citizen, brought suit to enjoin the authorities, alleging that the issue was illegal, lu a decision by Judge Hackney the supreme court thc other day sustained the view taken by Myers, and declares that the issus of $87,000 in bonds is illegal and uncollectible.

OOST3 MORE THAN 60FFEE. The New Beverage is Expensive in Some Families. A frentieiiiau while making the morning purchases in the family grocery, said they found Postum the health coffee, rather ex-i pensive at his house, “we drink more of it I than we used to of coffee because the child* ^ ren all drink it, and there are four of them, and wife and myself, that makes six using | Postum, while formerly I was tlie only one who drank coffee; wife used it now aud then, but it didn’t agree with her.” “Send up two packages o! the Battle Creek, Mich* Postum Cereal. We tiud it is food and nourishment, and for the same money we get three cups of Postum to one of coffee. The way my family drink it, however, it costs us more than coffee but we all feel well and that is something.’* “The old liver trouble I used to have is gone, I supposebecau.se T have quit using the urslcle that caused the trouble; I don’t ' believe much iu drugs, for if nature is given affair show it will make most anyone well.** Dr. J.

Why, from 1S73 to 1893, was the average decline in tlie prices of commodities 334 percent? Why did the products from farms, from mines, shops and factories sell in 1893 tor only two-thirds of what they sold tor in 1873? Why was there a shrinkage of value in farm lands in tlie state of Pennsyl vania of $120,000,000 in 20 years when there was a constantly increasing population? Why in 20 years did the average price of farm lands in Illinois fall trom $20 to $11 per acre? Is it not true that a fall in the prices always means a rise in tlie value of money? Is it not true that all decline in prices increases the value of bonds and mortgages and money and makes it correspondingly more difficult tor the man in debt to pay his obligations'? Is it not true that business today is “locked in the paralysis of hard times,” as Gov. Tilden said? Is not this paralysis traceable directly to the demonetization of silver and tlie consequents enhancement of the value of gold? Is it not true that there is a settled public conviction that something is wrong in our financial system? Is it not absolutely certain that if we are to have English money we must have English prices for labor and lor products? Do the plain people, and we mean by this all the people who work by brain or brawn, want low prices and diar money? If so they should favor by voice and vote tlie gold standard and forever banish silver from our monetary system.
