"I AM NOT A DEMOCRAT."
On March 17, lbbfl, tlio Hon. William
-Icnnings Hryan declared at Mount Vernon,
111.: "I am not a Democrat."
What havo Democrats to do with a man
who has proclaimed that ho is not a. Demo
crat; who repeatedly boasted of hisintentlon
not to support a gold candidate or a gold
platform ; and who is now, after two years or
more of intrigning with tlio Populists, tho
l'opullst candidate on a Populist platform?
THE 53-CENT DOLLARS.
Wo aro in receipt of a communication from
u prominent business man of town, asking
ixtUIu questions bearing upon the currency,
and taking exceptions to a six-lino editorial
that appeared in Wednesday's IIuiiald. Wo
S .c tho communication in full :
Kiiitor HltllAl.ni In an editorial yesterday
I your paper you say that the silver mine
owner would be a fool to sell bis bullion In the
market for .13 cents, under free coinage, when he
ould take it to tho mints niul receh o in return
silver dollars worth KM) cunts. Now how tlo
vou account for It that the sIKer dollar under
o coinage would be nothing but a 53-ceiit
bIlar, as tlm people would receive it, while ae
. filing to this the silver mine owner would
receive a lUO-ecnt dollar? Vho is going to
niukv up the tlllTcrcncc iKtween the people'H
M-ceut dollar ami the 100-cent dollar of the
mine owner? Also where tlo you get the idea
that the government Is going to coin the tin
ineuse output of the silver mines into dollar
whi.'h gives tho mine owner a prollt of 17 cent-'.'
tVould not this idea ha en tendency to induce
every one to melt up ail their household silvrr
v, are Into these Kimo dollars, and when that was
j;one would thev not create a demnnd from
wnie other country for silver bullion to melt up
Into tlitsc same silti rdnllnrs'.' And would not
this great scramble for sIKit bullion soon run
the price up to n higher flxtiru than gold is now
brinKing"
An answer to ahf.vo rptcrlig would oblige
a Keptibllcun of twenty years standing, who
now believer that tho grand old party is fast
drifting away from its moorings, w hen they de
clare for the gold idea.

-Hlicnuitdoiih, Pa., Aug. 1:1, ll.
Our correspondent should llrst undeibtand
that history fails to show an instance of tlio
creation of value by legislation, while on tlio
other hand eery attempt of this nature litis
been a failure. Mr. liryan said in New York
tbat "free coinage would raUo tho bullion
price of siher to tl.o face value of tl.u
dollar," defying all natural laws and eon
tiary to all precedents. This proposition of
the man who said ''I am no Democrat," is
the same as that proclaimed by our corre
spondent whp no doubt has been captivated
by tho sophhtry and catch phrases of the
Hoy Orator.
i'he intrinsic value of a silver dollar to
day is 03 cents, anil our correspondent
could, witli $830 in gold, buy enough silver
to maku 1,000 sllcr dollars. Tho govern
ment ciedit represents the other 17 cents In
tuc silver dollar.
Mexico is on a silver liasis hut tho Intrinsic
value of tho white medal has not advanced,
and tho Mexican dollar is worth about fifty
1 1 nts In this country.
Tho adoption of free coinage uf silver
luld drive gold out of circulation, and ac
cording to the Chicago nominee for Presi
dent IX panic would certainly follow. The
.price of gold would not change, but it would
comniAud a premium, which would bu about
the samo thing. From 1WK) to lbOH the
I utted States government bought 1,000,000
ounces of silver eaeli mouth to help tho silver
prodticcis, but in splto of tlioso heavy
imichasea tho p' icc. after a short Bpurt in
IH'JO, steadily declined.
Tho contention that tho silver mine owner
wffiM reap tho bonellt derived from the free
remain) of silver has never been denied. It
1 also acknowledged that a depreciated
currency which the Chicago platform favors
all'ects the worklngniau to a greater extent
than any othur class. The uiouejed men can
stand it, while tho man who works for days
wages bear" the burden. If wages were In
vreasod in proportion to the depreciation of
the money, the Jlryan theory migm meet
with some approval at the bauds of tho wurk
tugmen. Hut such is not the oaso.

be greater, "d therefore our correspondent
is Jumping nt concluslbns. It is rouiwry,
pure and .simple,, to legislate tho market
valtlu'oflaliy coiiimoUlty, ami it is surprising
that men of the intelligence our friend has
should bo j lid astray by tho Western mine
owners Tind tkelV Iiisteru'clifpos.

likely proo memorable one, nnd tlic voters
of both putties will be cogor for news bear
ing upon tlio contest, lioth the licpubHoau
and Democratic Iiondiiunrtcrs will bo located
at PottsTlllo, and It la from tlio suit of war
that tho information duelrcd is sought for.
We have, therefore, engaged the services of
ono of tho ablest and best posted political
writers at tho county seat to furnish us with
a weekly letter, confining himself entirely
to tho political contest. Our correspondent
has tlio confidence of both the Republican
and Democratic leaders, and is in a position
to obtain news of this naturo that few enjoy,
and which will glvo his letters a standing

Tin: notification meeting In Now York was
conspicuous for tho absence of leading Demo

curious it was a howling success.
Hryan and his misguided llastcrn followers
my the press is sulaldizcd. Yet they all gave
his speech In full for tho roasou that it
makes good' Republican campaign literature.
Tin: silver crazo reached high water mark
Wednesday night, when tho Hoy Orator
appeared before an audience of curiosity seek
ers in "tho enemy's country," From now
on the American people will study the
Chicago platform carefully and well, nnd
interest in liryan and his theories will sub
side. Free silver has captured about all 'the
converts that will veto as Bryan thinks, and
before November thousands of those who
havo been fooled by sophestry and oratorical
llights will desert tho Populistlc standard.

Thero is absolutely no change to report in

that the end of tho dull season had been

just upon us then, and is now continuing
with its scorching hot weather. The coal
mined Is nut great, and nil of it is being
moved with caso and taken in homeopathic

future ate reported, most buyers now holding
oil witli tho purpose to purchase later on in
lots to suit their needs. At tidewater tho
dealers are reported to be well stocked up
sitl'icient to meet ull demands uf the trade
for some days. PrIceB continue as quoted in
preceding reports, and doubts are expressed
of the proposed Sine, advance next mouth.
The trade this moutli will take about 1,000,000

Manager Major,
Me. J. AiiTiiun Moyer.
Dn.Au Smt I hopo you'll pardon my
boldness In writing to you, but I havo traded
at your store over slnto you took charge of
It, and I feel that I know yon woll enough to
toll you what Is on my mind. I'm In lovo
witli a young man down in Ashland, and I
think ho loves mo, hut the troublo Is just
hero ho Is out of a Job and ho (ain't spend
the money to come up and see me, In fatt I
think ho would propose to mo If ho only had
a Job. I'vo noticed what a big business you
are doing and I write to ask if you dou't
want some inoro help.
I would so llko to get George a placohcro
In town, so I could sec him often and I'm
almost suro If ho had work ho would proposo
tome. Ho knows I caro a lot for him and
now if I should got him a Job, ho couldn't
fall to seo that I tako a groat doal of interest
in him. You remember when you advertised
thoe white slippers and said in tho paper
that a white dicss and whito stockings and
whito slippers looked so nice nnd tlio girl
who wore tlicni would catch a beau. Well I
bought a pair of your slippers, I had tho
whito dress and I borrowed a pairof mother's
white stockings (I always wear black ones
oxecpting when I wear tho whito slippers).
Well I went down to Ashland dressed that
way and suro enough it was just as you said
In tho paper. I saw Georgo and ho liked It,
and as ho put mo on tho car to como home, ho
squeezed my hand and said I looked just
sweet. I got right off tlio car and stayed a
while longer with him for I thought ho
would proposo maybo If ho was given a
chauco while ho was In tho humor, and I
think ho would have dono it If ho had had a
job. Now If I can only get him a job every
thing will bo all right; can t you tako Georgo
on and help us out. I bollovo ho would draw
a lot of trade to, as ho is very popular down in
Ashland ; everybody likes Georgo, especially
the girls, in fact they mako mo sick tho way
they tag around after him. I just told ono
of them last week that sho ought to ho
ashamed of tho way she was letting George
seo that sho was in lovo with him, Sho
didn't say anything, that is anything fit to
write.
1 am telling you tlio whole story so j'ou will
understand just bow It all is. I am sure
Georgo would make a good hand in your
store because ho is a perfect gentleman and
talks so easy and nice that people would buy
of him becauso they liked him and it would
he easy for him to, because your shoes are su
cheap and nico and 1 wouldn't like Georgo to
work hard. I don't like a man to look all
fagged out, in fact if you give him a place I
will come around and wash your wiudowsand
it wont cost you a lent. I would rather do it
than have George do it, and than it wouldn't
do any harm to have Georgo seo how I can
work .
I notice you have a machine for putting
buttons on shoes. Now Georgo could work
that splendidly. I ran now seo his manly
form in front of that machine, and ho makes
a picture wortli looking at, Oh, Mr, Mover,
George would suit you, lie suits mo and it
is'nt every young man that I would take an
interest in as I have in George.
I am dreadfully in earnest over this tiling.
I hardly slept last night for thinking about it.
When 1 passed yourstoralastSatiirda.vnlglit,
and saw it full of customers, how I did vfish
Georgo was in there waiting on thorn, Now
pleaso give Geotge a chance and you will
complete my happiness, becauso I am sure
he will prorosc if hu only gets a job.
Yours very respectfully,

A VALUABLE STONE.
It Will Cure u Snake or Mail Dog Illto
If Applied.
E. L, Slmmors, who Is woll known to tho
coplo of Shenandoah as agent for tho Atlan
tic Tea Company, tolls n reporter of tho
Herald of tho valuo of a' mad stono. Mr.
Simmers has traveled extensively, and
through him E. J. Hauck, of Lcwisburg, who
shot a whito deer soveral years ago In Kansas,
and whllo dressing it discovered In tho
stomach a hard substance, about the sire of a
gooso egg, oval in shape and having a felt or
velvety surface, tho great value and the
wonderful medicinal vlrtuos it possessed.
Mr, Hauck had kept it as n curiosity, but
since learning of Its virtues has cured soveral
arties after being bitten by a snake.
Mr. Simmers says tlio stone is prized very
liglily by tho Indians, and is known as a
niad-stono. Its virtue, as a healer of poison-
bus bitos, is well known. There is ono of tho
stones in Kansas City, Mo., and another in
I ort Worth, Toxas. The latter has boon ap
plied moro than ono thousand times In snako
and skunk bites, tho latter bite, it is said,
being very poisonous at certain times of the
year and produces hydrophobia. Tho stono
is porous, and on being applied to a wound
adheres until it is full of tho poisonous matter.
when it drops ofr. On being snaked In milk
it purifies itself, and Is ready for another ap-
ucatlon.
Tho philosophy of tho operation, says Mr.
Simmers, and tho reason tho stono is only
louml lu tlio stomach of tho whito deer, is
explained by tho Indians. Tho whito door Is
very susceptible to vcgetablo poisons taken
into tho stomrch. To prosorvo tho animal's
lifo naturo has placed this porous stono,
Which nt onco absorbs tho poison and
neutralizes it, thus saving tho deer's llfo. He
says Mr. Houck will ho glad to rollovo free
any ono who suffers with a snako or mad dog
