The New York San has declared for McKinley and says: “From now until the night of election day in Nov. 1896, the presidential candidate of every democrat who favors honest money and who still hopes to crush the enemies of the fundamental principles he was bred in should be, without hesitation, evasion or sop to prejudice, William McKinley." County Chairman Ferguson has issued a call to the Republican county central committee to meet at the Rensselaer opera house, Friday, August 31 st, at 2 o’clock P. M. There should be a full attendance of the committee, as very important business will come up for consideration. At 3 o’clock p. M., the same day, and at the same place, Hon. W. S. Kenworthy, of lowa, will address the people upon the political issues, from the Republican standpoint It was just such preaching as that of Ashby, the former Rebel and present Anarchist, which caused the attempted Debs insurrection in 1894. And it is just the kind of preaching that unless it be at once and overwhelmingly sat down upon by the American people at the polls, will certainly before many years, plunge this country into a civil war, a bloody revolution, the end of which, short of the destruction of the very in-

stitutions of our government, no man can foresee. Notin the days before the great, rebellion did men preach doctrines and principles more calculated to stir up inextinguishable hatreds among our people, and to create war and bloodshed, than does this Ashby now. Menlike him are public enemies. They are traitors, no* only to. the country, but to civilization itself.

There is lots of gold and silver in the country, and millions of paper dollars’ as good as either. What the people want is not more money but a chance to work and

’earn the dollars now out'of reach. They want protection to open up the workshops of the land, to start the machinery, and build up a good home market, where men are able to pay fair prices for everything they need. Making Mexican or American silver into American dollars won’t give them employment. It won’t start a spindle in all the land. There scarcity of money. It to-day goes a-begging at from 3 to 6 per cent, and finds comparatively few takers.—Inter Ocean.

The progress which the negroes of this country. have made since the war, in education and the accumulation of wealth and in spite of all the obstacles that have been in their way, is one of the most marvellous facts of the age. Yet Ashby, the ex-slaveholder arid unreconstructed Rebel of Texas, say the negroes now are ten times worse off than they were before they were freed. He added further, that forty million white people in this country are still worse off than the Negroes. What an infamous statement. And what an unspeakable shame that people living right here in this patriotic enlightened and prosperous community, are found who endorse and encourage this man Ashby in his crusade for universal discontent and hatred, and final revolution and anarchy.

People who use the world’s money have to use it as the world uses it; and value it as the world values it. Gold and silver are the world’s money, and no one nation, however rich or however powerful, can put a greater value upon one as compared with the other, than the world gives them. Whenever any nation attempts this the metal which is attempted to be undervalued, will go to other nations where it is not undervalued, and the overvalued metal only will remain. If our nation attemps to make 50 cents worth of silver worth as much as a hundred cents worth of gold; then gold, as the undervalued metal, will be withdrawn from circulation and sent to countries where it is not undervalued ; or what is not sent to other countries will be hoarded and handled as merchandise; while silver, the metal which isovervalued, will become the sole and only metal money of the country, and that too at the value which the world gives it. And all this in spite of any amount of demagogical rhetoric about our country being large enough and rich enough tp have a monetary-system, regardless of the rest of the world.

Never since 1860 has there been such a bolt from any party as there is now from the Democrats. Already more than 100 of the leading Democratic papers have come out in opposition to the Chicago platform and candidates. The following is a partial list of these papers, and it shows that the bolt is by no means confined to the east, but extends all over the country, east, west, north and south.
