The business men here should organ- ixe ami adopt a system and severe reg ulations regarding the credit habit. They should demand frequent and reg ular settlements and refuse to deal with those who are too careless to comply. So far we have not mentioned the professional dead heats in this article They deserve no mercy at all. They should be blacklisted and refused credit in every case. Every merchant and business man in the county should have a printed list of the dead beats, »nd it should be corrected ami added to as oc casion should require. Some people who are bumming tlieir bread, board, beer, whiskey, clothes, to bacco and hardware should be shut off entirely and be forced to labor a little. Make them stand tlieir share of the burden of sup|>orling the community, or drive them out of the county.

Ami, some are waiting to see who the democrats, populists ami silver party nominate before they take a stand. It will be hard to get even the free silverites on this coast to vote for a free trade man, and many hold back ou that account. It is feared by many that the free silver party may be asked to endorse a free trade democrat, ami the people have no confidence now in the democratic party and do not want any mere free trade.
