"Old Dak." "YES, YOU CAN GET IT?" The lum Ml itt Democracy Join "tlm (inhibit Inn (I. The Democratic State convention of Iowa assembled at Marbhall town last week, and for two days there was a b tter strife be twetn the two opposing elements of the party one contending for a ticket and platform on a "sound money" basis; the other clamoring for free c iige ot silver without waiting for :.u international agree ment. Ot course the "machine" won the day and as been thw case up to date, the Democratic par;y declared for a gold standard platform. The final roll call on the resolutions showed the white metal advocates defeated by a vote ot C.1 12 to 4''0 I '2. A nnghty shout mingled with groans, hisses and anathemas fol lowed the announcement of the re sult. A number of free, silver dele gates immediately left the hall, not waiting for nominations. This is another evidence that yon cau "get retorm within the Demo cratic party." Judge 'A . I. Babb was nominat' d f r Governor. lie urged some more "harmony," and, said that the little difference on the silver question was more a matttrot ' detail than priu cii le." Mr. S. L. li stow, who was nomi nated for Lieutenant Governor, d -clined the nomination on the ground thathewasa free silver man and could not run on a gold standard platform. He was nominated for the purpose of concilating the free stiver men, but that kind of business does not take among the sturdy men of principle in Iowa. THE POtNT OF VIEW.

This has been strongly marktd durirg the last six or eight weeks. I think it but a temporary check, however, and that the sentiment is 3tronger with the people. Still there are no more public meetings thtre now, and the discussion that con tinues is kept up by the newspapers alone. I think," said he, "that the silver men in the Democratic and Kepnbli can parties will be swamped when it oomes to elections. They will talk silver, protest their allegiance to silver, aud all that, but when the time comes they will grit their teeth and stand their medicine. They will vote with their parties."

B. M Blackburn, an eminent and fearless Democratic editor who attended the Ga. Griffin silver con vention, declared on the floor that ne plsiced the success of the Demo cratic party above the success of any economic principle. We love an oppone-it or this sort. His candor reduces the issue to such a plain line of difference between p. pj and Dtmxjrats that discosi-iou becomes a pleasure. If all the D-m-ocratii'! l;ul-r"t, who Klieve just what Blackburn alone had the cour age to say, would sp-sk as plainly, jur ta?k in building up a p-arty of principle would be immensely sim plified. If Democrats place the success of their parry above principle, pray tell ns what is victorious when Democ racy triumphs? Mhai has succeeded? H h:t has been defeated? t rijmivraH( tmrosRA nifans th' succes3of uo principle why should any body support the party except ing th? fellow who wants an otfice? What is there for the people in any such a party? How can such a party rem-HlyaEy wrongs of government, or iaiprov the coudition of the people by enact ing beUer laws. If Democratic leacers care noin ing for principles, why adopt plat forms? Why debate isuea on the hasting? Why write about them in he cewapapers? Why not tell the pfople Honestly that all ycu want is cfliee? Yes, if all the Democratic editots were aa brave as B. M. Blackburn we would soon have the dear old D mcciatic party reduced to a mere greedy mob of flesh potters, and the great mass of the people who hon estly feel the ned of juster laws would ayoid the Democratic flag as they do a. pest-house signal.

Republican and Populisfa ran weli afford to discredit nv state ment afff csicg thf-m with the abso lute crrtainty that the tiu'h has ben prv-rted, aud gtv-n cdoring oth-r than the fctts would justify. But this article 1? a. serious retloc tiou upon tho Hon. J. C. Pritchard, S'-nator from this State, and wlio I am glad to claim as a personal as weii as a political friend. It is immaterial if this production ema nated from tho brain of some Demo crat, who thought he had found a crevice iu which to force this wedge of falsehood and thus embitter friends and perhaps sever friend ship, or sotje Republican whose prestige is on the wane and who sees as plainly as did Belsuazzar of old tbse words on the wall, "Mene, Mene, Tex' l, Upharsin"; the obj ?ct being to create jealousies and rivalry within th- party ranks, hoping that out. of this they may regain the sceptre that h.is departed from them. This article demands correction at my hands, only so far as it effe-ts Senator Pritehatd. It says: "On of Grant's friends suggested to Pat terson (who was the manager of Pritehaid's canvas?) that the Secre taryship of the United States S natp, was htll by General W. R. C-x o. this State, aud that Giant would like very much to have that tfii'-e. Patterson at once communicated with Pritchard, and the latter and Grant had a conference (personal) which resulted in Grant and his fiieuds voting for Pritchard." I wish to say that evtry line with its possible interpretation, every impression it conveys is devoid of truth absolutely false in fact and spirit without even the shadow to Pase such a report upon except the following, "Grant and his friendf voted for Pritchard."

Crowds upon erowds gath ered to hear her prearh aud then would go away wondering among themselves at the great talent with which sue is endowed, xler congre gations at nights and Sundays would vary from five to twelve, or fifteen hundred. The church would accom modate seven hundred and this num her could distinctly understand her while speaking. Several of her sermons we;e attentiv- jy listened to by whites, especiauy the hrst, her text being "i'e must be born again." She made many explicit points that one who attended wi'h good intentions could take and di gest for their spiritual good. She was very witty at times and would keep the congregation lauching for several minutes. Then with calm ness she would change, and with a few somewhat stern looks over the congregation, begin to peel the hyp ocrites, telling them to stop drink ing, stop lying, stop gambling and backbiting your neighbor, stop fight ing other denominations, and get your own heart right; get that "death out of the pot."' She left Friday for Cherawand Marven JN. C, where he preached before coming here Sii8 wa torn in Washington, D. C and began preachii g at seven years old; was converted at eighteen moaths old.

It is all a fiike scheme to prevent voters from breaking away and desart ingthe party. The western Republican voters are being deceived by a lot of leaders who regard the voters with just the same respect that a farmer does his liock of sheep, and now w hen it is almost shearing time they have to be herded up carefully and kept in the right pen.

There don't seem to be anybody at home now in the Pemixratic party. The goldbugs would feel better if they were in the Republican party, and the silver Democrats would be more at home if they were in the People': Party. There seems to be no further use to keep up the Democratic party as at present constituted. It has no fixed principle, is composed of fac tions and controlled by the money power. It has been tried and found wanting, and common decency now f-uggests that it ought to be buried. A. FAR-BTACHIKG BLOW. HKnitiMiyi Vuterf A tray by (Irtr. I land Vo't r.

As a eurpassiDgly grotesque illus tration of our peusiou system, the case of E. S. Smith, editor of The Wil'iamstown Ijx;al, deserves ap preciative attention. The details appear in The Oswego Palladium, tnoogh not a3 fully as might be da sired. It seems that when Mr. Snaith was two year3 old his father went to the war, and was shot. His widew survived him for only a short time. The son grew up, and until qu;b" lately srot along; without any ar parent difficulty bv the use in divers hoaest ways of his own unas sisted hands aad brains.
