Mr. S. Frank: Parrott ix the author-
ited agent of The Herald. He mil
solicit mbMiiption* and advertm-
mentx and rertifd for ihtmey.
While wtcbelieve there are other
-a* ‘ p, i.
causes, as for illustration the reckless
extravagance of the late Republican
national administration and the op
pressive tariff, for the present
stringency and distrust that exists in
business circles, it may lie safely
stated that the constant agitation of
the silver question has done more to
bring about the present condition of
affairs than anything else that could
be suggested. Why some of our peo
ple will insist on the government,
when it comes to paying means the
people making the owners of the
silver mines a present of a good many
million dollars, *in case Congress
passes the free ooinage act, passes
our comprehension, yet this is exactly
what will be done if this visionary
and ruinouspolicyisever inaugurat
ed. Silver has declined so much in
price recently that there is only
about fifty-five cents of the metal in
the present silver dollar. For the
government to undertake to make
this amount of silver worth a dollar
in gold would be, in the highest
degree, ruinous and it would take
the country years to recover from the
effects of such unwise and suicidal
legislation. Cupidity of the part of
the silver mine owners, demagogism
on the part of some of our politicians
and ignorance on the part of a good
many of the people are responsible
for this demand. The first two
classes are not amenable to argument,
the people' are the ones to whom we
appeal, and beg that they will give
this question their careful considera
tion, being fully persuaded that
when they do they will repudiate the
teachings of those who, to carry out
their own selfish ends, have led them
astray, and sustain the present ad
ministration in its efforts to give the
country good money and a safe finan
cial policy,

The Third party must belong to
the reptile tribe, that is if we are to
jildge by its ability to kick the air
after its bead has been severed from
its body, as was done in the last
election. The latest move of this
headless center is seen m a long arti
cle ih the Cotton Plant, from the pen
bf Mr. ,t. W. Held, the secretary of
the Htate alliance, in which he states
that any one who thinks that the
vote for Weaver represents all the
Thlre party vote in this Slate is very
much behind the times. Mr. Reid's
assertion conveys no news to any
Intelligent mac, as the fact was per
fectly apparent that, during the cam
paign, a great many so-called demo
crats were Weaver men at heart but
lacked the courage »nd honesty to
eoffle out openly for him, and thereby
tufi the risk of losing any patronage
they might secure ip tb^ event of
almost certain Democratic success.
If Mr. Reid and those who sympathize
with him, wish to engage in the
useless task of gathering np the
scattered remains of this mixture of
socialism and unmitigated nonsense,
that was so badly broken np by the
explosion of dynamite at the last
election and try and patch them to
gether, nobody will object, Imt before
commencing the job it wonld be well
fur them to berr m mind that the
•aue Democratic axe,-which, in the
hands of Grover Cleveland, so eaiily
decapitated both the Republican anil
Third party at one blow, is slill on
hand and ready to execute the same
feat again. It still keeps!u temper
and despite its many jobs of this
kind Us edge is as keen as ever.
When it is raised to it* plaoc ip the
peawcratic guiUotins and allowed to

nnjiiislic editorial*, and a jri-'M't
our them would make the iuipredsion
that they were the utterances of our
contemporary ami expressed its
views on the subject of property.
The e.lilor, however, informs in, at
the bn!tminf the fourth page that
the articles are copied from the
American .loiiriml >>f Politics. Of
course the presumption is very fair
that they express the sentiments of
Colonel 1 largnn us he makes no com
ment on them. Without in the least
meaning to be complimentary, we
take the liberty of suggesting that
the editor of the Freeman is abund
antly able to write his own editorials
on the subject bf communism or any
thing else that hupi>eiis to be iu his
mind at the time; as while every one
recognizes his ability, but at the same
time is i»erfectly aware of the fact
that he is a kind of political comet
that wanders around in the illimita
ble regions of space, without* any
fixed orbit or definite purpose, unless
his restless wanderings to and fro
have some object in view lieyond the
pen of mortal vision.
A writer in the Oconee News, who
is evidently an advocate of the Ocala
demands, makes a comparison w hich
is so evidently unfair as to only need
attention called to it to demonstrate
his utter ignorance of what he is
writing altout. In trying to prove
that the farmers have great cause for
dissatisfaction with the present condi
tion of things, he goes back to the
year 1824, when, owing to-the ex
tremely short crop, cotton went up to
14 cents, and then quotes the prices
of bacon, corn, lard and sugar, at
tempting to show that one bale of
cotton would, at that time, purchase
just double the amount of these pro
visions that it would now, owing to
the difference in the price. Unfor
innately for the comparison, it may
be asserted that at that time there
was not one farmer in a hundred
that ever bought a pound of meat or
a bushel of corn, but that most of
the articles that they did have to buy
cost a great deal more than at the
present time. Then too it is very
certain that when cotton reached 14
cents the crop, owing to bad seasons,
must have been veyy short, and the
planters probably did not realize any
more from its sale than they would
have received for an ordinary crop,
sold at an average price. Except
provisions, which except sugar and
coffee, they did not buy almost every'
thing was worth a great deal more
than at the present time, and the
small farmer of that day did not live
near so comfortably as those of the
present time. Another fact neglected
by this writer Was testate that some
times cotton Went down very low and
sometimes Would only bring 31 or 4
cents per pound. The price of meat
and corn snould not beof any special
interest to the farmer, for if he
would raise these two prime neces
saries himself, instead of giving a
lien on his crop to purchase them he
would never feel any scarcity of
money, for the large amount paid out
each year for meat and corn would
just make the difference between
comparative ease in money matters
and the scarcity that only exists
through his own short-sightedness
and refusal to learn wisdom from ex*
periettet,

Gordon, has issued a general order
postponing nntil September 16th and

was in response to an almost univer

cial situation, aud the feet of its
being harvest time in some sections.
Thispostponment makes no change
