Tl.ey art' I ingeneliotlKrsuprenicIy.niid wo are anxious that I rother It. Z. Li'iiit-y join them and make a trio that will bo in- inoiblo. This trio would rrj resent ovorv sh;alc of politics i that lias ever neon suggested in the I nited States. These three noble felhv.vsshould or gauizontonee and dispense to the country everything n kin to politics. Tariff for pro tectum, tariff for revenue on ly, Jacksotiian democracy, Haniiltonian republranisie, S u b-treasury, (Jovorninent ownership of railroads, Chit irioney, Gold standardi-m. Woman suffrage, Free trnde ism, High and low tariff, Cox oyism, Centralization a n d other kindml phases of poli tics are ab'y represented by these exponents. Let them form the combination a n d enlighten the people, as we are badly in need of such a firm at this time. Wo hope Mr. Linney will not hesitate: lie loves 'Jiui k' Kiteh"ii any way. The Supreme court havinu indicated that there will be four vacancies in the judges, of the? State in consequence of the construction given by the court on the act of the legislature in regard to the matter. So there will be a judge to elect in our judicial district asjudge Uynum term expires. Our Attorney W. IJ. Councill will be in the field for the nomination and we suppose judge Bynum also. The judge is a favorite of ours and we think well of him both personally ami judicially. We also have hi;h regard for W. 15. Couu cill ami believe him to be a suitable man for judge. We think Wataugo is entitled to some recognition in the com ing campaign, and we shall urge Air. Councill's claim up on the true Democrats of the district for the nomination. In diing this we have no as peisions against judge J'.y num or any other man. We esteem the judge who is an excellent man and a capable judge. A powerful association of leading capitalists has been organized to develop the S )uth, with headquarteis at Baltimore. The president of the association is Hon. Chauiry F. Black of Pa. Col. Julian S. fair, of North Carolina first Vice-president. M. Erskine Miller of Staun ton Va.. second Vice-president. Mr. A. A. Arthur, third Vice-president and gen eral manager, etc. The ob ject of this association is to colonize and develop South, era lands and to direct im migration and investments in the South, the scope and plans of the company are on the broadest sca!e and it wdl have in the United States and European countries, the widest and most influential connections.

Tlu silver quest i. m arises now on con- ditions not iicnti iore pre sented. The Wot Id is practi cally on a gold bases. hat ever silver we may employ now, in the absence ot an in ternational ag cement, must boon a domestic bases be cause it is no longer current at the World's counter. The object ol the veto of the seigniorage bill was to main tain the parity of the twj metals, if possible. Dr. Talmage has had the great misfortune of having ids Tabernacle bin ned. The lire occurred last Sunday a week ego just after he had h.'Id service and was yet in the pulpit shaking hands, but tho congregation had mostly left the building. The loss was ery great, but Dr. Tu'mage is much giatified that all l.iseongrogation was saved, saying it. was a provi dential thing, that if the fire had occurred during the ser vice that many lives would have been lost. So desperate are the repub licans against the tariff bill that efforts have been made to bribe twoSenatorsto vote against the bill, thereby de feating the measure; but the offer of bribe has failed. Sen ators Sutton, of Va., a n d Kyle, of South Dkota, are the men approached. Sutton was offered 2o,000und Kyle $15,000 to vote against the bill, and a committee has been appointed to investi gate the matter. So close are the two parties in the Senate that it takes sharp engineer ing to pass through a bill like the present tariff measure. The Republican Congress in 1890 only got the McKinley bill through in Oct. before the election in Nov. and the Republican Congress w u s swept from the face of th.'jout the co operatinn of other earth. The closing exercises of Hoi ly Spring College, ButlerTen npssee, on the 8th and Oth of May, was attended by quite a number of Waiauga peo ple. Bev. D.Kitziniller preach ed the sermon to the gradua ting class. Hon. C. C. Collins delivered the literary address. There were eiifertuiments at night by the Literary Socie ties. The primary depart ment rendered an excellent programme. The music was furnished by the Butler Cor net Band. The graduating class consisted of four young men, viz: Joe B. and John L. Councill, of Watauga, lames A. Smith, of Carter, and Wily W. Vaught, of Johnson couri ty. The orations by these young gentlemen were very credilable.

'Phantom' mildly suggests that 1 am a republican, by asking me to demonstrate "just how far a Democrat . . t i can lollow up the goldhug: idea without losing h:s idea i lity." I will answer by rela tinga circumstanci'. One man said to another: "I have an objection to Heaven, because, imtiful, he knows just howj according to the Book, there(t(, tieat them, and knovviugj is to be no distinction of thej sexes, an. i therelore there will be n j women t here." "Well sir," said the other, ''I havethesainoopinion, bur I'd t hec bi hi Ilea vtn with- out women than in Hell with j all of its woes." Upon the same principle, one may have objections to the Democratic party, and yet ns long as he would rath er he a democrat than a re publican, he has not Inst identity.

If they agree, the silver quesiion will be settled, and (Jrover Cleveland wilt have a new star in his cro.vn that wil", shine even in the h' arts of his eneaiies. He hau.'.ig'it for the League and lias a greed, in defease of his posi tion, that ?;e could not. con trol the value of silver wiih nations, and that if we want ed to maintain silver as a money, we should not rush any more of it on the market while it was at such a low ebb. : - ' -y ' If the international agree meat is made, it will then be no uncommon thing to see English, French or other for eign dollars in our circula tion, because, although they will have on them a foreign ensign, they will weigh the same as our dollars, and will therefore be interchangable for them; and the American Eagles will oil their feathers iu every clime, and will be in no haste to fly back home to be exchanged for gold. It is argued by some that we have aufTieient resources to control our own affairs without any dependence up on the prices of the white metal in other countries.
