In order thut wo may "judge not," are we to stoop to llil; lowest grades of society mingling with and making ourselves equal to the worst of humuu creatures? Both these views are erroneous.

Chicago ticket und platform is the all-absorbing topic in political circles. Neither wus received with any more enthusiasm by the democrats than were the St. Louis ticket und plutform by tli'j republicans, a month ago. In fact, if tliuro Is to be any nthuslasm In this campaign It bus yet to'mdke it iippciirenc in Washington. About the lirst question nsked when two men meet the pipulist und filver conventions endorse the democratic ticket und plutform?" Tho answer depends, of course, largely upon what wishes of the speaker may bo.

The populists who'iire in Washington decline to commit at this lime, but it Is easy to see that they like the platform much butter than fiey do the ticket. It seems to bo conceded by most polit leans hub if tho populists and silver men, who uro to hold conventions at St. Louis on lie 22nd of fits separ.ito tickets, Instead of endorsing the Chicago ticket, It will add lurgt-ly to the chances of republican success. Silver men would huve lighting chance to win, if they all voted one ticket, but not otherwise not even if tho gold democrats should put up ticket of their own, becuuse tho gold democruts uro mostly in States which are almost certain to go republican anyway. While the prohablo ut I-tude of President Cleveland towards the democratic ticket.

nominuted by the convention which mude several humiliating references to his administration in' its 'plat form, is naturally a subject of much discussion, there is no reuson to believe that it can pjssibly. ndoet tho results, anyway. Mr. Cleyevand has not in the past turned tho other cheek when, struck, and it is not likely thut his nature has recently undergone a chango for tho better. Two planks in the democratic platform are so distinctly anti-Cleveland thut would prevent his supporting the ticket, even if the plunk for the free coinage of silver was not enough to have mado him oppose it.

first thought appear strange to attempt a comparison or a parallel between Asheville and Gaffney. While one is peculiarly located amid the mountains ho other has an exceptionally fortunate situation in the Piedmont belt. Kacli, as yet, hug only one leading through line of railroad. Asheville, as a county seat, Is comparatively old country town, tiaffney Is a new duvelopment of the last twenty years. I first visited Asheville In 1800; and saw GufTney laid off in 18711.

When I again visited Asheville, about 187G, it was a flow, but solid mountain town of about 2,500 inhabitants, mostly native mountaineers. I visited the place again in 1877. Then Us hud not conceived an idea of the possibility of Asheville becoming a great city, by. Ihe.inflowpf northern settler! and capitalists. 1 had fsfab-Jished a settler's agency in New York about 1871, in connection with the Richmond and Knoxville and 'the 1'ennsylvunia railroads, witli cheap rates for persons who would come to look, to invest und settle the south.

Galloway, Cary, llennett, Foggette, Cuufli, Purser, and iminy otGers topped off and worked at Guffneyl Some remained, others went uwuy. Then luter came 1'eter Cooper, the good and great, all lending a helping hand to build up Gaffney City. When I visited Asheville in 1877, I culled for api'blic meeting.
