OH, IT 15 PITIFUL; NO IT IS SHAMEFUL. The Louisville Dispatch has resurrected the following extract from a letter to this paper published in 1877 when the paper waB owned by Judge Beckner. The salty comments of the Dispatch and the extract make mighty interesting reading for all Democats who are Democrats from principle and not for spoils. En. Winchester Democrat. Kentucky has bowed her head in shame for the degeneracy of the faithless sons whom she commissioned to uphold her honor before the nation and who took it and bartered it away to Wall street. Senator WiHiara Lindsay, who holds Kentucky.s commission in the senate of the United States, bartered his principles to Grover Cleaveland for patronage, and is now bowing before the people whoso confidence he has betrayed, w hose commission he has disgraced, telliug them that he has always been for the gold standard. In even' town where he speaks the Democrats should have his letter to the editor of the Clark County Democrat printed in the form of handbills and distributed among those who hear him. That letter was printed by him or his friends and circulated in several Democratic conventions while Lindsay ws working himself up for the senate. In rt he declared lor tne tree coinage of silver, and for the greenbacks and against the national banks. Democrats of Kentucky, you have a right to demand of this renegade and traitor that he answ er his o u letter. You elected him on it. lie has betrayed our trust. He is not like Byuum and Patterson, a hireling ol Wall steeU sent here from an other state, to help Republicanize Ken tucky. He holds your commisiou. He is inj our pay. lie is your unfaithful servant. He is shooting the Democratic party with tne gun winch it placed in his hands to tight itb battleo. He is a traitor wearing your uniform, drawing pay, and serving your enemies. Here is an extract ironi tne lener which ue wrote to the editor ot the Clark County Democrat under date of October 5, 1877. Make him au&w er it w herever he goes to tell the people that he has always been- gold standard man : LINDsEY'S letter. "The sole object of levying duties on imports should be to raise revenue. The present tariff should be thoroughly revised; the rates of duties should be materially reduced, and so long as the necessities of the government compell us to reoort to tins mode of taxation, we should direct our legislation toward a atncly revenue tariff; should abandon altogether the uujUbt and corrupting policy of protecting preferred classes aud lavored industries, and bhuuld keep steadily iu iew the fact that we are ultimately to have untaxed commerce and free trade. "f lie work of converting the legal tender notes of the government into interest-bearing bonds should cease at once. i'he notes, instead or being withdrawn iruui circulation, should be made receivable in paymvut in all dunes, to the government, including duties on imports. "Silver should be remonetised without restriction as to the amount which may be coined and put iu circulation, and the old silver dollar should be made a legal tender for alt sums, and in payment of nil debts, public aud piivate. As the circumstances of the govern lnent render it proper and necessary that the circulating medium, except hi gold and bilver, shall be bused uu tne public credit, ah paper currency should bo is sued direcuy by it, audits notes should oe speedily as practicable, and with the proper regard to the rights of ull perbous interested, substituted for all the national bank notes. These bubsitituted notes will pobaess all the monetary qualities of the additional value of being receivable in pav ment lor alt moneys due to tho government. "lhe act of March, 1869, iu which it is declared that the faith of the United Slates is pledged to pay in coin all government obligations, not exiesaly made payable in lawful money, was a fraud on the taxpayers and an attempted usurpation of judicial jjower by the legislative department. It does not, as a matter ol strict law, bind either tho people or the government. The workings of the Dingley bill are o Iieculiartliattliey are almost ridiculous.

ms Lenient Way of Treating For Refor malicn of Embrvo Criminals. Commissoner of Patents Butterworth one of the men w ho believe that a prosecuting attorney is belter engaged in side tracking embryo criminals on the mad to perdition and gelling them on the road to,n;hteoUbiiess than in corralling them for shipment to the peniten ttary, w here they are thrown into association with pi cioi ks. Several years ago ilaj ir Dutterw orth was prosecuting attorney in southern Ohio and he had the opportunity to test his theorv regarding the discrimination that should be used iu dealiu vuth men newly launched into crimv. A young farmer was arrested for pasting tounterfeit as the 50 cei. no e was known, and the case was put i.. the hands of Major Uuttenvorth. The young man told his story. He had saved several hundred dollars, had left his wife and little children and had taken a boat down the Mibsir&ippi river, purposing to beitle on a new farm he was to buy with his hard earned bavines. On the boat he met an extremely pleasant and well dressejl stranger, who learned of his mission aud proceeded to make himself agreeanie. n a moment of extreme confidence the stranger told the oung man of a large quantity of money he had which was made from plates that hid formerly belonged to the government aud which the government had long since sought to recover, etc The young man was struck by that remarkable method ot acquiring wealth when lie had toiled and saved for years to get a few hundred. In a burst of generosity the stranger offered to exchange some of his money for greenbacks belonging to his new found tnend, so that the lat ter should have two dollars for every one he possessed. The bait was tempting and tho fish bit. At the lauding the well dressed man disappeaied from tho boat and the dupe became alarmed. He became suspicious of his new money aud was afraid to oiler it iu payment ot his passage. He, too, left the boat, determined to go back home. He started to walk and became footbore. He began shoving the money to buy something to eat, the counterfeit was discovered and the arrest made. Major Uutterw orth took in the tusation. "I told that ouug man," he said, in relating the story, "that if God had made him a dishonor man he had failed to put a sign on hi luce. I told him to j,o home to his wife and children as an houebt man. He could tcaitely realize that he had escaped the penitentiary. He went home, and a more honest or better citizen I do not know toJay. That man had not the heart of a criminal, but if he had been sent to the penitentiary his children would have been disgraced for life and probably he would have belonged to the crimiual class for life." fct.

Lexington Oazette 1 The unfortunate division iu the ranks of the Demofratic party at the late election produced part discord which is deplored by all patriotic Democrats. It is useless to deny the fact that extremists the party policy iu both un-s of the party, and that the conservative element was overshadowed and subdued by the stubborn zeal of extreme partisan leadeis. j.The time has come for party'discord to ceate, for conservatism u reassert itself for the party to re unit-; uiOii a platform equitable and honorable to all. without a compromise of principle to any. Every Democrat w ho lov es hie party and desires his country's goods above stubborn theories will admit the utter futility and absurdity of an attempt to retain political power with a factional fight ithin the party lines, and all w ho prefer the of Democracy to can surely consent to waive a diffeiences of opinion in the interest of good local government. The part should be condoned, jieisou.il criticism and crimination avoided, in order to reunion and harmony in the parly. Whatever maybe our convictions upon fianancial questions, which are national rather than local, we all claim to be Democrats desirous of promoting the party's and all alike are interested in the selection of competent county officials. The Democracy of Fayette Counlv has within its own fold the bes of material for County officers and there is neither necessity nor excuse for the surrender of the load affairs of the County to Kej ublican control. The first toward harmony is to rescind the action of the Democratic Committee, which includes the Sound Money Democrats from participation in the pioacliing primary election of the party and co operate with them in the choice nf reliable candidates for the County offices. The interests of society and the protection of life and property demand this union and restoration of harmony, and to ignore this demand is criminal stubbornness and political The increase of crime and lawlessness the Commonwealth is due largely to a want of enforcement of the penalties of the law. It is undeniable tiiat public officials too often connive at the commission ot crime and fail to enforce the law for his prevention and punishment. The law-abiding element of both the Democratic and Republican parties realize tho truth of this t'on. La . iessness muslin? suouneo uy the enforcement of the penalties of the law. Society cui not rest upon a law less foundation. Riots violate rather than vindicate riaht, and rioters are law lefs. The purpose of this article is to a p-peal to the Democracy of the county to bury the iast and unite in an honest effort to protect law and order within our borders, to secure every citizen in the enjoyment of life and prosperty, to teath criminals to obey law, and make crime odious. This is the rcat end of government and is the surest safe guard of civil liberty. I write iu no partisan spirit and do not mean to reflccton the Republican party when I say that the Democracy of Payette county has the material and the power to achieve the trreatest success in local government. Why, then, should we encourage and foster partisan strife in our ranks, and sever the political ties which have achieved political success in the past? The present is ours and demands the exercise of our best energies for the protection ol the future; Protection to ocietv is Iiest attained Ty economy in fi.o u.'irnmstraiina of our local affairs VI'V -.-."-- and ly the enforcement of just laws. All over the Commonwealth defiance 01 law and extravagant expenditures are uprooting our free institutions and rendering insecure .the established righjs of property.

The bladder was created for one namely, a receptacle for the tirie, and as such it is not liable to anv fHi ot disease except by one or two wbis The first way is from imperfect action o the kidneys. The second way is fiw careless local treatment of other dteetiaes. ens? CAUSS. Unhealthy urine from unhealthy is the chief cause of bltukler troubles. So the womb, hkt the bladder, was created for one purpose, ami if not doctored too much is not liable t weakness or disease, except in rare cases. It is situated back of and very cke to the bladder, therefore anv pain, or inconvenience manifested iu the luck, bladder or urinary passage is often, by mistake, attributed to female weakness or womb trouble of nie sort. The error is easily made and may be as easily avoided. To fiud out correctly, set your urine aside for twenty-four hours; a sediment or settling indicates kidney or bladder trouble.

In the last national campaign the partj pledged to honest money found the strongest weapons in Repudiation's bauds to be the statement that the preservation of the gold staudard during a period of less than three years had caused the sale of bonds to the amount of ?262 000,000. This falsehood w as first put forward by the Administration to conceal its failure in tanil making; next it was taken by the Bryanitesas their leading argument for wiping the gold standard out of existence; and now it is the stalking horse of the of the greenback. These latter experts make the gold standard more than twice as odious and difficult to defend as it was made either by Mr. Cleveland, in the lirbt moments of chagrin over his tariff failure, or by the late party of disorder and anarchy. To the 202,000,000 which the gold has cost the country during Mr. U'cvelaud's present term, say the bank curiency party, we must add 000 more, the sum of United btates notes which must be redeemed and abolished before the gold standard will be secure and stable. Seven hundred and million dollars, there-tore, is the cash price to this couutry of honest money aud national honor, ac cording to their estimate. The fanatical libellers of the gold standard, aud most etlective promoters of Uryanism, never mention tho facts that before the icvenue became deficient as much gold went into the Treasury as came out of it, the greenbacks tioubVl nobody, aud the gold standard was not seriously assailed ; that 5190,000.000 of the bond money has been paid out to meet current expenses unprovided for; that the Treasury figures show about 100,000,000 of the bond money to be still iu the Treasury, thus showing every dollar borrowed theoietieally for greenback redemption to have been available for regular public expenditure or for payment of the loan; and that if since March, 1S93, the Federal income had equalled the outgo, the 5103,000,000 in gold held by tho Treasury when Mr. Cleveland began for the becond time in the White House would have been more than enough lor redeeming a volume of greenbacks sufficient to bring furthei contraction of the mrrency to a stop, without the sa.e of a dollar of bonds. The greenback abolition cmsande is as crooked in its methods and almost as inimical to commercial prosperity as the late crusade for disorder and repudiation. THE GREATEST MAN IN ALL THE WORLD, DECLARED GOV. KNOTT. (Harrosburg Sayings) Hon. W. J. Brjan's reception in Kentucky is beyond the hope of his most saouuiue friends. His march through the btate is more like the triumph of some hero of old a Cresar or Scipio Africanus who had won renpwn in war than tho advance of a defeated presidential candidate. The throngs that greeted him at Glasgow, Elizabethtowu and Lebanon accorded hiin ovation upon ovation, aud when wo state that 10,-000 people huu upon his words at Glasgow and Elizabethtowu and 20,000 at lAibanon, the abovo statement can not be scouted as estravapuit. Ex-Governor Knott hit tho nail on the head, and expressed our sentiments, when lie introduced Mr. Bryan at Lebanon as "the 'loreuiost man in all the world." UU SHOE The Style.
