"I AM NOT A DEMOCRAT."
On March 17, 18!W, the Hon. William
Jennings Ilryan declared at Mount Vernon,
111. : "I am not a Democrat."
What have Democrats to do with a man
who has proclaimed that ho Is not n Demo
crat; who repeatedly boasted of his intention
not to support a (;old eandldato or n gold
platform ; and who is now, after two years or
inoro of intriguing with the Populists, tho
Populist raudidato on a l'opulist platform V
It may seem like over-nlliciousnoss to ob
jeet to hoys jumphiK on the hack part of
wagons as long as the drivers do not ohject,
hut tho frequency of accidents resulting
from tho practice demands that something
should bo done to abolish it, and thus prevent
tcry serious niislrips, possibly fatal onos.
Tin: IlgureB kIvcii show tho total coinage
of silver, Including fractional coins, which
were made subsidiary in 1853. Tho whole
number of standard silver dollars coined up
to 1S72 was 7,033,038, from 1873 to 1MII tho
number was 4!,tt2!,3-IU. And yet wo are
told that silver has been bully treated !
Ol'i: l'ottsilllc correspondent furnishes a
chapter of the iuslde history of the .Demo
cratic eoiiuly convention, and it will be read
with much interest by voters of both pintle.
"Hex," us he mriis himself, is in a position to
know what he is talking about, and whatever
ho says can hu relied upon.
Tin: IlarrUbnrg News did itself proud In
issuing n mammoth edition of twenty-eight
pages. It contains valuablo Information of
the capital of tho state, and at tho sumo tlmo
does much credit to the enterprising publish
ers. Tho Nohs lias become one of the leading
dailies of that city in the spare of one year.
,1. IIakkv Jamk, editor of tho Ashland
Local, occupied a seat in tho press box at tho
Ilryan notification meeting in New York.
He informs a reporter that the Hoy Orator is
a very much overrated man, and that he re
sembles a man in Smukcy Hollow. Wo may
now expect to see the Local liring hot shot
into tho Ilryan camp from our friend Harry.
On tho same day that Ilryan made his now
inemomhlu failure before a New York nu
dieneo, William McKlnley delivered u ratri
otie and able address to his old comrades.
How dillcrcnt the two men view the silver
question can ho keen by the following quota
tion from McKiuley's address: "IdonotUnow
what you think about it, but I believe that
it is n good deal better to open up tho milln
of tho UuileJ htaets to the labor of American
people than to open up tho mints of tl.c
I'uited States to the silvorof tho world."
Tin: water superintendent lias given suf
ficient warning to nil consumers of water who
are delinquent in their rents, and if the
latter oxpcilcnie uny inconvenience bccau.se
tho water is shut oil', they will have only
themselves to blame. Tho oidlnaneo requires
tho water rents to ho paid in advance, hut tho
delinquents have been given thirty days
notice to pay up. If it is not done at the
expiration of tlmt time, which is near at
hand, tho water will bo shut off all delin
quents. Wi: have no such thing as gold monoiiie
tallisin in this country and never have., and
nobody propones to establish It. Wo have to
day nearly $ii00,u()0,000 or gold. That is
honest bimetallism. It is not proposed to
deinonotizo silver, hut simply to maintain
the honokt standard of valuo accepted by this
country since its foundation, and accepted by
ull tho civilized nations of tho woild with
which wo deal, and where wo inuot main
tain our credit. Tho fioo silver craze pro
poses silver monometallism, which would re
duce pur government to the level of tho scuii--civlllzcd
and pagan commies of the world.
An important case was decided by Judge
Pcunypackcr, at Philadelphia, this week,
that is of particular interest to installment
dealers. A man purchased n piano on tho
Installment plan, with a promise to pay $8
per month, and tho following day ho sold tho
same piano to another party. He was
arrested ou the charge of larceny as bailee,
and pleaded guilty. Tho judgo told tho
accused that hu made n mistake in pleading,
adding that "a man may purchase a plauo or
uny other article ou tho Installment plan, und
when ho does so ho gets tho tltlo to the
property, and can do us he pluusos with it,"
Tim following extraordinary offuruppoand
in tho Indianapolis Comuicicial Tribune of
a fow days ago. It is signed by John Kagau,
a woulthy Democrat of that city, whoso
ability to "pnt up" tho money is vouched
for ; "I am (and havo boon for thirty years)
a Democrat! hut will now hot $20,000 to
$10,000 that McKiuloy will get every ono

McKlnley will bo elected, and I will make n
hot of $8,000 to $8,500 that Ilryan won't Ret

Kood until Sept. 1."
In tho proMint stato of tho public over
national polities tho case of Mr. David
Martin, of Philadelphia, Is not exciting tho
Interest It otherwise would. It will he
remembered that tho councils of Philadel
phia, held what purported to he an Investi
gation last winter as to how a telephone- com
pany was granted. valuablo privileges, hut as
tho witnesses of Importance were out of
reach It was a fiasco. Itecontly tho Andrews
investigating eomtnittco probed tho same
ease and brought out the fact that Martin
had received largo blocks of stock in the com
pany, and that he had been in consultation
with tho witnesses wanted by the councils
investigating committee tho day before he
appeared to testify and deny all connection
with the affair. These witnesses were at
Trenton, X. .1., at the tlmo and It looks very
much as if Martin kept them out of the way
purposely. This testimony created a sensa
tion which was not lessened any when Martin
denounced it nsf perjury, and offered to go
before tho committee to testify, and asked
that he ho given tho opportunity to do so.
When tho committee acceded to his request,
Mr. Martin refused to testify unless he were
permitted to havo counsel, presumably to
protect him. As innocent pcoplo don't need
counsel to protect them Mr. Martin has
placed himself In tho position of having
played a game of hlulf and failed. This Is
tho man who rules the councils of Philadel
phia, ami without whose mnctlou nothing is
permitted to pass that body. Truly, tho
Quaker city is ruled by a dandy boss,
