Senator McLaurin doesn't fancy the idea of being con founded with Representative McLaurin. of South Carolina who has been ta'king of leav ing the democratic party to form a silver party in the Soul hand West. The Sena tor is opposed to any such movement. To use his own words: "I am a silver man, but I believe in the mission and he success of the Demo cratic party, and I think that we can settle these disputed questions within our party organization.'' That's about the way most of the silver democrat feel about it, too. The largest number of dem ocratic signatures ever at tached to a request for a call to be issued for a caucus were on that addressed to Mr. Ilolman, chairman of the Caucus, asking that a caucus be held Tuesday of this week to decide what should tie the policy of the party in the House towards that plank of rhe National platform which declared that the tux on State bank cur rency shoul 1 be repealed. Representative SwansDii, o f Virginia, circulated the re quest for a caucus, as a re suit of his making a personal poll of the democrats in the House on the question of the repeal)!' the tax. He found that nine-tenths of thedemo crats favored repeal, but all except 129 of them insist that it shall be accompanied with more or less Federal WASHINGTON control oyer the fill Telli'V to i"' it-Nil.-! )V the Sf ;i I :iTlk I I.e House commit te tin Iukinu nn.!

All of the Maine for this State of affairs does not, however, belong to Reed and the Republicans. There are 21H democrats in the House, and if 170 of them would remain constantly in their seats Reed and his o bedient gang would be pow erless to stop the wheels of legislation in their efforts to 'ompel the speaker to count a quorum, as they have tried so often to do of late.

He as only prevented from inaugurating civil war iy the refusal of a Federal officer to back him up. In South Carolina the Pop ulists captured the Demo cratic organization and elect ed a Governor, who, though calling himself a Democrat, is !a Populist in all but the name. He has developed the same traits that have dis tinguished Populist officials in other States. Unbending self will, contempt of constit utional limitations, a dispo sition to resort to violence on the slightest provocation, unstiut?d denunciation of courts that refuse to register his decrees and citizens that question his infallibility, have driven whole counties into insurrection and imposed on the good citizens of the State the hard necessity of choosing between the ele ments that resist the execu tion of the laws and a Gover nor whose temper is as law less as that of those who re sist his authority. The trou hies in the State illustrate the folly of putting up a would-be autocrat to enforce the l.i ws of a republic. While the Populist in au thority are thus causing rows within their territory the Populist out of office are contributing all they can to the cause of anarchy by or ganizing armies of tramps and marching on to Wash ington to intimidate Con gress into enacting some of their wildest schemes of so cialism into laws. To those men the fact, that Populist ideas were condemned ut the last congressional election counts for nothing.

Adding to the value of manufacturing produces, the value of min ing products, and the total for the South in 1890, was $910,000,000, or more than two and a half times as much as the average value of the South's cotton crops.

Millionaires in New York and elsewhere are about on par with these. Numbers of them have five hundred or a thousand times as much as they return. It isn't any wonder they object to an income tax because it encourages perjury. But their black souls are deep dyed with perjury now, and other black crimes too num erous to mention.

A young lady was asked td parse a ki?s, am! after repeat ed efforts did so correctly as billows: "Kiss" is a conjune tion because it connects. It's a vei b because it signifies to act and to beacted upon. It's a preposition because it shows that the person kissed is no relation. It is an inter jection (at least it sounds !ik" one) and is a pronoun ba cause it stands for a noun. Ic is also a noun, because it is the name of oculutory no tion bulb proper and com mon second person, plural number, because there are al ways more than one. In gen der it is masculine and femi nine mixed. Frequently the case is governed by circum stances and light according to rule one: "If he smite you on one cheek, turn the other also." It should always be gin with a capital letter, be often repeated and continued as long as possible, and end ed with a period. Kiss might be cOnjdguated but n e v e r should le drvlin-.L Ex.
