What Uie RApublicana will not (lesceinl to in the present campaign, in the way of deceit, falsification aid outright lying is beyond the most vivid imagination, and the lltnneiTiines of this city seems to out-du even its partisan ecnteinp«»rsriea ni this line of business. One ol its ftcent exploits i:i this line is to misquote and misrepresent Ifi.-ltop Thoi>urn, of the 5f. E.

The Banner Times is doing tl e cause of Democracy great good, in this county, by its persistant publication of criticisms known to be false. In a recent issue, in its notice of the Democratic ratification meeting, it said : “All this time dozens of democrats were standing around the court house door cursing the platform that the speaker was eulogizing. At no time was there a semblance of the old time democratic enthusiasm at a ratification meeting. It was absent, and the fact was widely commented on by those who have attended similar meetings.” No viler falsehood ever appeared in ‘

Letters on tho Subject Hot wren the I’uiteJ State* ami England. Washington, July 18.—The elToris ot the United States aud Great Britain to ugree upon a general m rhl ♦ rn t ion J rea ty for the settlement of all controversies through the establishment of a [HM-ma-nent tribunal, as well as the progress of diplomatic negotiations towards solving tlie Venezuelan problem are set forth in 13 communications ninde public by the state department. While they constitute the first authoritative disclosure upon these g.pnt questions since President Clevi Lind's famous Cbristmaatide message to congress, it will be found tlmt previous report., in these dispatches of the negotiations between the two governments, have accurately outlined tlx; course of events ( Little substantial progress toward a ■v general arbitration treaty is disclosed I by the documents. An outline in part of the proposed procedure is laid down, and the views of the two governiiicuts nre so explicitly stated that future discussion may becoutined toward narrowing the few divergencies of method. The further fact is made apparent that the United States has not relaxed its vigilance in demanding a just settlement of the Venezuelan boundary question, and lias rejected the British proposals for arbitrating that dispute under term-, involving the surrender of any part of

Venezuela's claims.

Saturday night Governor Matthews presided. His opening speech was not long, hut every sentence w’as full of meaning, and every other period was marked with applause. There is no mistake about where the Governor stands. He said that his heart was filled with gratitude for the generous indorsement of the Indiana Democrats. He was for the nominee. He said the convention was not a gathering of Anarchists, traitors, re* repudiationists or secessionists, “but

to fight for the

cago convention.” How is that for welfare of the people. If there was a brazen falsehood? The B. T. lied any anarchy there, if there was in printing it, and it knows it.

lessness of the Republican single-gold-standard-cause; it is virtual confession of the defeat that is sure to come to Republicoism at the polls

next November.

The Banner Times occupies about a colume of space iu a vain attempt to answer a nine line editorial paragraph published in our colums last week, in which we stated that the Democratic national platform and ticket wese made in the interest aud at the demand of the people, and not to please or satisfy gold-bugs or goldhug newspapers The B T. article is plethoric of word.- ''’’t barren of ideas. The fact is not deun d that several newspapers owned or controlled by millionaires, whose clientage is of the monopolistic, corporate and monied are opposed to Bryan and Sewell and the Democratic platform, which declares in favor of gold aud silver standing upon an equality as primary redemptive money, hut their

“Oh, what liars some mortals he, is a fitting exclamation when the prevaricating drivel is read in its disgusting profuseness in the BannerTimes. It says a “healthy rumor has been going on quietly in the inner Democratic circles to the effect that Chairman Colliver is not for free silver.” No such rumor has been quietly or noisily going the rounds, for the simple reason that there is neitbee fact nor foundation upon which to base such a rumor or give it

J Wall Street, New York and Europe.

I say,” said the Governor, “the gold men cannot understand that convention. It represented the cause of the people. Never since the days of tho civil war has a more serious question arisen and one requiring more patriotic, honest, earnest support, but we Democrats, in National and State Convetion, have fearlessly met it,” The Governor trounced the metropolitan press and “men who pretend to he Democrats” who have deserted the party. He called them Hessians and traitois.

We regret the necessity of so frequently calling attention to the misrepresentations of the Banner-Times —it seems almost a waste of time and space. In its notice of the Democratic ratification meeting held last Saturday, it asserts that the people were misled in regard to the meeting by oending out word that Shively, our candidate fur Governor, was to speak. No such word was sent out; neither the posters nor the advertising even hinted at any thing of the sort; no Democrat had any information upon which to base such au idea —it seems the B. T. will lie even when truth would suit its own purpose better.

The fact that Herr Most, the leading anarchist of the country, has de dared for McKinley and single gold standard, indicates according to Republican reasoning in the past, that the Republican party is the party oi anarchy and communism. The news is liiat Hon. J. R. Chcadle, of Frankfort, ex-Repubhcan Cou gressmna, announces himself as an independent free silver candidate for Congress in his district—the leaven ol righteousnes is working. See the editorial in another column in regard to the lies the BannerTimes puts in Bishop Thoburn’s mouth, and then size that paper up for truth and veracity—if it has any, it is too faint to be iliscernahle.

My friend, unless our children have more patience and courage than saved this country from slavery, republican institutions will go down before moneyed corporations.

Flanders, the delegates at large from this state to the Chiengo convention, held a conference Saturday and issued a declaration explaining the action of the delegation in not voting in the convention.
