A Lively Corpse.

Anybody who thinks the people’s party is dead had better prepare now for a big surprise in the future, equal to the one they had on reading the election returns on November 8, 1893. The reform papers are stronger and more aggressive than ever, and the work of education in public affairs ia bearing daily fruit The financial question is fraught with considerable danger to the democratic party, as the south and west are undoubtedly in favor of either free silver or an inflation of the currency by the issuance of United States notes, based on the credit of the country. This, with the free trade tendencies developing in the west and south in the people’s party ranks, is likely to play sad havoc with the conservative element in the democratic party when another fight comes off. The democrats will have to be real democrats or be relegated to the rear again, if the signs of the times are read aright.—Baltimore Critic.
