A ruiA half of the year has expired
since the will of the Republican
Party was declared. Thus far but
one of the important iFSiies of the
campaign is nearing settlement, and
hardly any noticeable improvement
of the wretched times is manifest.
The tide will soon set in strongly
against the Republican Party wnlws
tho depression in buisness is altered.
Idleness and want breed a bitter discontent,
which will never be overcome
until there are ample employments.

"The foes America has to fear are
not the sullen, savage Turks nor the
insurrectionists of Cuba, nor the territory-grasping
Rritish, but they are
our patient and heart tired people,
our own suffering, much-promised
people who, betrayed and
no longer have faith in their party,
and will turn to any leadership that
offers promise of better times, believing
that worse times can never
come than those now existing."
Speech of ex-Postmaster General
John Wanamaker, at Philadelphia
Rusiness Men's League Ranquet.
May 15.
Tun G. A. R. elected a negro chaplain
at their encampment at Lexing
ton last week. The office sought theJ
mau :n this case. There is no salary,
onlv a 'Miiguer" attached to it.
Three hundred miners at Washington,
Indiana, are out on a strike, sayb the
Louisville Dispatch, because the election
of McKinley raised their wrges
backward. The shot for McKiuley and
were kicked by the gun.
What became of Wince Rallard,
the negro candidate for Jailer before
the Republican convention? Guess
he got a square drink and a promise,
aud drew off. Pantagraph, please let
Wince answer for himself this time.
Hov. W. F. Schooler, editor of the
Morehead Advance, has received the Republican
nomination for Representative
from Rowon, Bath, and Menefee. He is
running a good paper and working hard
and honestly, and we hope our friend
will win if it must be a republican.
To counter tbe claim of the Ijoltocratic
press that all turnpike raiders are Democrats
(eilverites), the Frankfort Ledger
has the following:
Hannacrat aud Republican newspapers
liave repeatedly said that the Chicago
platform was responsible for the depredations
of the tollgate raiders; that, they
were all etc To offset
such lying insinuations from a subsidized
pre6 one illustration only is quite sufficient.
Last week sir raiders were arrested
in Mercer county, and five of the six
were yell-known Republicans.
The speech of ex-Postmaster -General
John "Wanamaker at the
Men's League banquet Friday
night at Philadelphia has caused a
sensation, particularly as President
McKinley was in the city. He declares
the people have been "betrayed"
by the Republican party, and
ho arraigns tho administration in unreserved
terms. The gist of his
spech, appears at the head of this
column. When it is recalled that
Mr. Wanamaker was in Harrison's
Cabinet, it is all the more strange.
Bat then Mr. Wanamaker, multi-millionaire
though he is, is a retail merchant
with stores in several of our
large-cities. Owing to the hard times
his sales have fallen off, and he feels
it- AVhen a man growls, about hard
time down here the wellfed money
holders say he Is calamity howler

GOVERNOR. IIlNDMAX,
of Columlifa, Bays the .Louisville l)i
pateh, who has always been treated with
consideration equal at least to his deserts,
gets the following from the Stanford
Interior Journal :
"Not satihfied with his fight last fall
against the party, which made him all
that he is or ever w ill he, Gov Hindman
continues to make war on Democracy
by presiding at a meeting in Columbia
which declared eternal enmity to the
Chicago platform and all who btand
thereon."
And there are others.
Concerning: the nomination of Scott
and Crutcher for Circuit Judge and
Commonwealth's Attorney, the Winchester
Democrat says: "No better men
could have been selected. Judge Scott is
a splendid lawyer, has a well trained,
judicial mind, is courteous, considerate,
fair and wholly impartial; in fact the
ideal Judge. Ren Crutcher is an able
lawyer, who prosecutes all cases rigidly
and fully, yet without bitterness or the
spirit of persecution. The interests of
thts Commonwealth and the dignity of
the law are safe in iiis hands. It is not
thought just now that they will have
Republican opposition aud if they do
thev will be elected."
A reader down in Alabama asks the
Courier-Journal to answer this question
"What is the caue of the extreme
scarcity of money?"
After grinding out a s"lid column,
this is the-answer: "Money must be in
one sense scarve in order to be the money
or civilization at all."
From the present status of the finan
cial stringency it U ouropiuion we must
have reached the highest stage of 'civili
zation."
Uut the truth is. the scarcity of money
is the chief cause of the terrible condi
tion of affairs throughout the land. If
the panic of 1S93, as the Courier-Journal
declares, "was the result of the fear
that the country was about to go to a
silver basis, in which event jersons to
whom inonev was due would have lost
half the alnc of their securities," wli3'
in the world have times grown woic instead
of better, now that McKinley trl
iiniphe'l ? It is the veriest rot to say
that times continue bad because "the
threjt of the silver standard has been
held oer the country ever since the
tleclion. Though the
advocates were badly beaten in 1S9G,
thev refuse to accept that decision as
final and boast that they will win in
1900."
Great Scott! The gold standard rulers
of the country promised better times
should l'.ryan be defeated. Are they
afraid now to try their remedies7 Are
fouryeais not enough time in which to
demonstrate their ability and prove the
honesty of their claims? Everv work's
delay in the nrrivd ol General Pio-,

SOME DEMOCRATIC FIGURES.
(Owenton Herald.
The Democratic State Convention to
bo held in Frankfort on Wednesday,
June 2, will be composed of 1,091 delegates,
3o(, or nearly one-third of the
w hole number, being furnished by 15
counties, as follows: Jefferson SO, Kenton
35, Daviess 2o, Graves 23, Campbell
22, Fayette 20, Henderson 20, Warren 19,
Owen 17, Christian 10, Logan 10, Union
10, Barren 15, McCracken 15.
Based upon population, Lewis is the
banner Democratic county of the State,
GO per cent, of its entire population
for Bryan. Carlisle comes nest
with 22 per cent., followed closely by
Gallatin and Ballard with 20 per cent,
each. Owen, Carroll and Boone are in
the 19 per cent, diss, which is a very
good showing. Bourbon and Shelby
set rid only 15 per cent., which was no
better than was done by Breathitt, while
Scott fell below 14, and Woodford and
Madison went but little above 12.
Eleven per cent, was made by Fayette,
Franklin and Mercer, 10 by Boyle, less
than 10 by Campbell and only nine by
Jefftrson.
The Democratic vote in most of the
mountain counties, as usual, was small.
Low water mark was reached in Jack
eon and Leslie, a record of only a little
over two per cent, btiug shown.
WHY CONTINUE THE MINTS.
Every gold standard advocate will tell
you that he is for that standard because
the metal or gold bullion is just as valuable
before mintage as it is after it is
coined into money.
If this be true, (and we do not deny
the fact that under a single gold standard
it is true) what use have we for a
mint? Who would pay the expressage
on gold bullion to get it to the mints and
back, or who would want to lose the
time to have his bullion coined, even
though he was at the mints?
This is a question that ever citizen
should ponder over seriously who would
like to see the volume of legal tender
money increased. There has not, strictly
speaking, been but few dollars added to
our volume of inonev since 1893, and
under the existing gold stanJard it will
necessarily continue to diminish. Disaster,
failure, niibery and want will continue
to increase. The army of tramps
is being recruited daily, and the hope of
prosperity rong expected but so often
deferred, "uiaketh the soul sick."
If we really want the various mints
heretofore established under existing
latvs to resume operation and coin for
the people money by which all the
wheels of couiineire can and will be unlocked,
protipemy returned and a new
h pe of success and prosperity created
in the American breast, let us all joiu in
one grand effort and demand the restoration
of bimetallism, recognized and established
by the fuuudeis of this republic.
'Tliey builtled wiser than we knew."
Only leave the old paths trodden by
them and oar destruction i3sure. Be
not deceived longer by that fraud party.
It is the disparity that keeps the mints
running. If it were possible to secure
an nnthanging bullion value mints
would be as useless under bimetallism
or monometallism. It is the mintage
that establishes tho jarityirom the fact
that any coined dollar will do at home
ji whtt everv other dollar will, do.
Opeu ibe miiiU fur both metals at the
present legal .ratio and one or the other
will always be rushing to the mints for
coinage aud our volume of money eon-.
stantly increasing as the demands of our
'
industrious people may require.

IT IS ACCORDING TO WHOSE OX IS GORED.
Louisville Dispatch
The man who seeks to avoid or change
an obligation without the consent of the
other party to itisarepudiator,and those
who changed every outstanding obligation
in the country by making gold the
only money ol payment instead of either
gold or silver, are guilty of a repudiation
of all contracts which existed at the time.
To insist on paying according to the contract
is honorable. To change the contract
so as to demand double is an act of
repudiation and dishonor. Those who
would pay coin obligations in gold alone
are the worst class of repndiators. They
are repudiating the contract printed ou
the face of every United States bond, and
repudiating the laws to which they must
look for protection against anarch'.
