Oh, 'turns glorious last Novomber when the victors marched away With red fire, drums and banners in magnifl- ' cent array, How their eyes with rapture sparkled, hew each loyal heart grow warm At the thought of poor old Bonny swamped by eyclones of reform: And how double extra jolly it would be to scotch and kill Our W. McKinley and hiB blamed old robber bill, But a different sort of feeling seems to perme ate the town, And gas don't count for glory When The * Mills Shut Down'. Oli, ’twas altogether lovely then to nag the G. 0. P., ' And furnish season tickets up Salt river, don’t you see? Slashing up official pudding, sure sack happi ness must bring. While Maxwell gives bis hatchet ja*t a little extra svnug, But hold! here comes another sort of music in the air That tolls of empty stomachs and of pecketB plucked and bare! Where are theso protection killers now, these spell tors of renown! Where, oh, where these great reformere When The Mills Bhnt Down? Loi the gr^&t and noble Grover, what a Valiant knigbt was lie, . .. To plant his No. l l ’s 'squarely on \pintoe- ruse*;” And Adlni the fearless, of tho weird ami awful namo, How his stirring deeds sheald echo on the trampet blast o f fame! . How they’d turn the oountry over and thou turn it back again, And acaltor all the rascals from among the haunts of men! \Tis a glorious prospect, truly, for many a thriving town, But it peters'out so easy .

The P la n k , The A c c e p t a n c e and The A c t . Financial Plank, Democratic Platform, 1S92: We hold to the use of both gold and silver as the standard money of the country, and to the coinage of both gold and silver without discrimination against either inetal or charge for mint ing. Cleveland’s Letter of Accept ance, 1892: . The people are on tilled to sound and honest money, abundantly sufficient in volume to supply their business needs. But whatever may be the form of*tbe people’s currency, national or state, gold, silvor or paper, it should bo so regulated and guarded by govern mental action, or by wise and careful laws that no one can bo deluded as to the certainty or stability of its value. Evex-y dollar put into the hands of the people should be of some intriusic value or purchasing power. With this con dition absolutely guaranteed both gold and silver can be safely utilized upon equal terms in the adjustment of our currency. Cleveland’s Message to Con gress, 1893: The many forms of commercial de pression are principally chargeable to congressional legislation touching the purchase of silver by the general gov ernment. * * I earnestly recom mend the prompt repeal of the provis ions of the act passed July 14, 1890, authorizing the purchase of silver bul lion and that other legislative action may fput beyond all doubt or mis take the intention and ability of the government to fulfill its pecuniary obli gations in money universally recognized by all civilized countries. A Story W ith a M o r a l. “ We need more money,” said J. W.

Toombs was at that time a director in the State bank. “ Robert,” says he, “ the folks down our way are iu need of more money.” General Toombs, who was often profane, replied: “ Well, how the ----- are they going to get it?” “ Can’t you stamp it, Robert,” suggested the farmer. “ Suppose we do stamp it,” argued General Toombs, “ how are you going to redeem it?” “ Exactly,” said the farmer, “ that was just what I was coming to. The people down our way are agin redemption,”
