Emphatic in Favor of Sound Money and
Protection, and Are Satisfied to

The South Is becoming thoroughly
awakened to the fact that th policies of

ioa and iound money are those tha
will best promote the industries of tt at
section of the country. The Manufac
turers' Record of Baltimore has collected
snother broadside of Southern opinion
on the issues of the day, this time from
bankers. The Southern bankers as
rule coincide with the opinions of the
manufacturers, and here Is what some
of them say:
K L. Foster, vice-president of the
Hunk of Anderson County, Coal Creek
Tenn.: "While I was a Democrat and
voted three times for Cleveland, I do not
see what could be done from a mere
human standpoint that would be more
disastrous to the business Interests of thi

than the election of Bryan. The gold
standard of money must be maintained

A. S. Reed, cashier, Bertram, Texas
"While a very large majority of peopl
in this section will vote for Bryan for
President, because he Is their party nom
inee, still the honest conviction of the
best business men is that they would
really prefer to Fee Mr. McKluley re
elected, believing that such re-election
would the better tend to insure a contin
uinre of the present prosperity."
II. F. Schweer, cashier First National

Joseph S. Duvis, cashier First Nation

'DEAR BOY" LETTERS NO. 8l
My Dear Boy:
So old man Skinner saya that there
will be war. in the Philippines for twenty
years yet; that we" will soon see the time
when men will be conscripted, in every
township for service in Chiua, and that
we are bound 'to have financial crash
next spriug. and then the poor people will
see me naruest times the ever saw.
Well, I guess the oi l man is a trplosl
Democrat. He eertaiuly has ail the
symptoms. Perhaps I had better tell you
whst the symptoms are.
There are certain constitutional char
acteristics which -distinguish the Demo
cratic party and opposite characteristics
which distinguish the Republican party.
When I tell you what they are, you will
see wny i want you to be a Republican
i. ine Democrats are pessimistic.
They always look on the dark aide. They
perpetually expect evil ahead and see
nothing but the evil in the things that
now are. l on pick up an average Demo
cratic platform and you find it full of
purases like the following: "We protest.
we denounce," "we disapprove." "we
view with alarm." One of the strongest
reasons against the party Is that they
are always striving to make the people
uiseontented with their lot and to fill
them with anxious forebodings for the
future. Right in the middle of abundance
and cheer and victory, they Insist that
we are all going "to the bow-wows,
Now it is the nature of Republicans to
be optimistic. The Republican party sees
the bright side. Thankful for the bless
ings of the past, they look forward with
confidence to the future. Thev exDect
good things and the expectation helps
bring good things to pass. They rejoice
in tne greatness and
highly favored land.
prosperity of our
They look upon
our schools and churches, our farms and
factories, our army and navy, and their
platforms contain phrases like these
"thankful for the past," "we rejoice,"
"we congratulate," "we point with
pride." Tbey bring to the people a song
of nope and cheer and content. Be a
Republican, my boy, and "keep sweet."
Don't let yourself get soured and pessi
mistic.
2. The Democratic party seems unable
to learn from experience. One reason
why I fit in easily into the Republican
party is because 1' can learn from expe
rience. Eight years ago I was a free
trader. I read about free trade in a book
and was convinced. It was a very uice
book and the free trade theory was pre
sented in a very nice way. I still Insist
that free trade Is a nice thing In a book
so long as you keep It in the book; but
when you take it out of the book and ap
ply it to wool and eggs and pig iron and
things, It doesn't work worth a cent. The
experience of this country from 1893 to
189 made me a protectionist. But our
Democratic friends bave failed to learn
the lesson. In their platform this year
they still denounce our protective tariff
law.
If there is anything positively settled
by the experience of mrtions, it is that
the best standard for a nation's currency
and for the world's currency is gold. For
centuries the nations bungled along en
deavoring to keep up two standards, sil
ver and gold, with the result that the
comparative values of the two metals
were constantly changing and the cheap
er one driving the other out of circula
tion, making currency scarce, values un
certain, exchange troublesome and com
merce difficult. Through experience, the
nations, one after another, learned that
the honest way and the best way is to
have one standard and that standard the
best nioney-gold with a hundred cents'
worth of gold iu the dollar. We have
learned that, since a standard dollar is
measure of value, it should contain the
value that it represents
All civilized people In the world have
learned this except the Pop;:!Mlr-Dein
ocratic party., .They coipe out this year
of onr Lord 1900 and propose to roll
back the wheels of progress and return
to the financial ways of barbarism
Now the Republican party does learn
by experience. It keeps up with the pro
cession. When a thing has been tried
and found wanting, the Republican par
ty drops it. When a thing has been
proved to be good by experience, the Re
publican party sticks to it. My boy, the
Republican party is not perfect by a long
ways. It has some men in It wno are
not good. Any great party must have
some such In a world like this. It may
sometime make mistakes. But the broad
political principles of the party are true
and right and it is the party that learns
from experience. You be a Republican
and you will not be sorry.

The figures on farm animals include the value of horses, mules, cows,

The farmers are not to be fooled by Mr. Bryan's statement made in
accepting the Populist and Free Hilverite nominations. Mr. Bryan then
said:
"The prosperity argument which the Republicans bring forward will
not deceive the farmer."
Neither will the possession of the man-made dollar In the farmer's
pocket deceive him.
He knows enough to continue prosperity.

The year work ended on that day, the
date being fixed by statute. He says re

"Evrrywhere the inspector found the
factories crowded to their fullest capacity
and straining every point to fill their or

Mr. Roberts is a Democrat. Here are
his ideas on Utah:
"Cand" compels me to admit that
Utah is a doubtful State. Four years
ago Mr. Bryan carried it by 61,000, but
there has been a marked change in senti
ment since that. time, and It is a serious
question whether the Republicans will
not win this fall. Most of those who
had left the party on the silver Issue
have returned to the fold, and there Is a
strong sentiment in favor of expansion."

must bid you good-by, and hurry back
to BoouBVllle to buy those calves 'fore
Harrington gets them." So saying, be
was gone.
The next day Vlnnle received a pos
tal card, stating that he bad got his
revenge ou "old mau Harrington," so
she presumed he had made bla pur
chase.
'ine spring ralna came. The un
shone and nourished the growing corn.
The wheat crop had ripened, and har
vest time arrived. The price of wheat
was getting higher every day. When
Simon's wheat was threshed he order
ed it put la a bin, to wait there for the
highest market price. He now spent
his time watching the markets.
"Cynthia," be said one day. "It looks
as though we may get $1 per bushel."
"I don't see how It could be. Simon,
when McKinley Is President."
"Well, you needn't think that Mc
Kluley has anything to do with It.
It's because of the scarcity In foreign
lands."
"Oh," said Cynthia, and she wonder
ed if Simon had suddenly turned Tnto
a "supply and demand" theorist.
"There Is one reason," he continued,
"why I hate to see wheat go up, and
that la because It gives the Republi
cans a chance to crow. They never
stop to reason about the scarcity of an
article."
"I heard the other day that silver
was goln' down. Why Is that, Simon?"
"Oh, that' the Oovernment's fault.
I dare say that those silver miners
hate McKluley."
"I don't believe It Is right, Simon, to
blame the Government with everything
bad, and for every thing good give
something else the credit. I don't un
derstand how silver can go down and
wheat go tip, when the Populist speak
ers used to sny they always fluctuated
together."
"They do fluctuate together usually.
but you must remember, Cynthia, that
there are exceptions to all rules, and
this case is simply an exception to
that rule. That's all."
There must be lots of exceptions to
rules this summer. I think If there's
many more, some of the rules will
have to be changed. I never saw eggs
and butter a better price this time of
the year. Wonder what corn will be
worth?"
"Well. Cynthia, that will be Jnst ac
cording to the extent of the crop. Last
year corn went down to 10c and the
country Is full of old corn. If we
should have another big crop It won't
bo worth h n skin', la my opinion. Con
ditions have to be Just right to get good
prices when we have gold standard
money."
Well. I hope, Simon, that the price
of corn will be auother exception to
the rule, so beside paying the mort
gage we might build an addition on
the house."
"Don't count on anything of that
kind, Cynthia. If we can make enough
to eat and wear we ought to be satis-
fled, for that will be doing exceeding
well during the next four years.
We may all go to the poorhouse yet."
"I guess there's not much danger,
with the granary full of $1 wheat."
And so It proved to be. Simon sold
his wheat for $1 per bushel and paid
every cent of the mortgage. Many of
his neighbors did the same.
Corn was a good crop, too, and high
priced, and Simon decided to husk tt.
"I am so glad, Simon," said Cyn
thia, "that your predictions do not
come true."
"It's Just another exception to the
rule," said Simon.
"'Peers to me." said Jlmmie, "that
you're klud of cornered, pa."
Cn ATT Ell VI. .
The Spanish-American War.
The following winter the Maine
was sunk by a foreign foe, and over
:00 American sailors murdered.
Simon was extremely anxious for us
to lick Spain "then and there." But
resident McKluley, knowing that we
hould not make an accusation without
roof, waited until It was proven that
he Spanish were the perpetrators of
the crime, and until this nation should
be Iu readiness to settle the difficulty
ulckly.
"I never saw the like," said Simon;
how outlandish slow they are up there

wouldu't wait for a proof, or to get my
weapons all polished and In order. I'd
Just simply give 1)1 iu the full benefit
of my bare fist. I would lick him. Just
as 1 am."
"An, pa," said Jlmmie;" I remember
one time of your pitching onto a man
Just as you were, aud he made you say
'enough. ' "
"Jlmmie, you don't know what yon
are talking about. I was discussing th
affairs of nations. I tell you. It Is un
American like, to let them Spaulards)
thluk us afraid of 'em."
"Pa." said Anna, "If yon don't watch
yourself, you will be a perpetual fault
finder. I believe out government will
settle this dlttlculty all right. Any
way, they surely know more about It
than we do."
"Never mind, my daughter; you'll get
tired a-waltln' till McKinley declare
war against Spain. I dou't believe he'll
ever do It. He don't care anything;
about the starving Cubans, or our na
tional honor. He Is there for the pur
pose of helping the rich men; be dont
care how many helpless people starve."
"Well, Simon," said Cynthia, "so far
he hasn't hurt us any. 1 never saw
times Improve faster for the laboring?
classes. Wages are high: evervbodr
has work, and prices for farmers' prod
ucts are getting better all the time."
Their conversation was here Inter
rupted by Mary entering the room. Sh
had been to Boonsville aud brought th
mail.
"War Is declared." she said.
"Is It possible?" said Simon In as
tonishment.
Hurrah for McKinley!" Jlmrala-
shouted.
"Jlmmie!" said Simon, Impatiently. -
"Be quiet Who told you, Mary, that
war la declared?"
"The newspaper says so," said Mary.
aud so It proved to be. Simon wa
"fooled" again, as Cynthia expressed
it, for in big, black letters the paper
announced that war had beeu declared
against Spain, and the President had
called for 75,000 volunteers.
Boonsville was In a state of excite
ment, and young meu commenced to
talk of Joining the army. People won
dered how Jong and disastrous the war
would be. :
Political Simon said the war would
provl what klud of stuff McKinley was
made of. He said he bad no contldenc
in him for managing a war. Ther
never was but one Republican that ha
ever knew capable of doing such a
thing, and that was Abraham Lincoln,
and If he was a-llvlng to-day he would
not be a Republican.
All eyes were now toward McKinley.
A great responsibility rested upon hi
shoulders. As commander-in-chief of
the army and uavy he was at the head
and directed all.
, About the first order be gave was ta
the Asiatic squadron, and we all know .
Its result.
Commodore Dewey, following tho or
der of bis commander-in-chief, sunk
the Spanish fleet iu Manila Bay. No
such battle had ever been known tu th
history of the world, and Dewey be
came a national hero.
In the meantime the Flying SquadroA
and Admiral Sampson's fleet went in
search of Spain's Atlantic fleet, sup
posed to be near the West Indies.
Young men were still hurrying to th
front, and among the volunteers waa
Glen Harrington.
t was bard for Vlnnle to bid hint
good-by, but be said he felt it his duty
to go. Long were the farewell words.
and Vlnnle'a eyes followed him as h
walked away to board the train that
was to bear him to the coast. She was
proud of her lover, and she admired
him, more than ever, for wanting ta
be a soldier, yet the thought of his go
ing tilled her with dread.
Many soldier boys would lay dowa.
their lives. Would be be one of tlios
called to die for his country?
The thought filled ber with dread
and the true meaning of war came t
her.
Simon was very much surprised when,
he heard that Glen Harrington had
