1T is amusing to read the twattle Of
such egotisticai people as the CONNER
eidl editors print about gold as single
standard. We doubt if some of them
ever saw gold dollar. To listen tosuch
verdant and penniless chaps calling the
leaders of the Democratic party, who
have had the grace to carry great body
even Of the Republican members with
them in favor of Bland's silver bill,
"iGnoramuses" is disgusting TO every
intelligent and impartial mind. Ability
has been all ON the side of the silver
advocates the speeches on that side have
been based on fac,s and figures eloquent
with experience in our own times and
country, and backed BY the use of ages in
the distant past; silver occupying with all
great civilized people the place of money.
And it is not likely that the gold gam>
blers of this day will be allowed to leg
islate it out of the hands Of the people.
The people like the ring of the silver
it is convenient to carry and is great
product Of our own country. We should
not turn with contempt from that which
we produce and nndefvalne It merely to
please the Uforeignl bondholders. ] The
Democratic leaders witt not suffer such a
thing to be DONE If it is done it must
be by some sther agency than that party.
The small potato politicians who SNUG
gled the bill demonetizing silver through
the Radical House and Senate have been
fully exposed and the fraud is apparent
to the people, who will never allow them
to do so again. 1t has been well said
if attempts are renewed to rob the people
by such scandalous trickery, The bonds
should be taxed as other property,
and paid both principal and interest IN
silver and greenbacks. If they prefer
the latter as being more valuable than
silver we don't see why they should not
be gatifed in their choice.

CONVENTIONS and platforms as well
as political meetings to discuss questions
before the people, by which their votes
are to be secured for candidates, are all
hnmbugs and frauds,if they are to be dis
carded after the election is over. No mea-
sure was better understood or more fully
resolved upon during the last campaign,
than that the-Demoerats, If thev had the
majority, would repeal the resumption
law. Not to have done this in the House
would subject the party to the same
charge which has often been hurled Al
the faithless Republican organization

SENATOR SHARoN's REASONS FOR n OF
COMING "A dispatch from San Francisco
to the New York Times says: " IN an In
teryiew with the Chronicle ofthis city, Sat
urday. Senator Sharon declared peremp-
torily that he should not go to Washington
during the present session OF Congress, and
he gave as an excuse that his important
business interests would not permit him
TO leave the city He also said that IL his
Republican friends desired him to resign
he would readily accede TO their wish. He
says that he shall not go TO Washington
until the latter part of December. Il Is
thought here 10 be very doubtful whether
he Will go then. He has gigantic interests
at stake involving millions. Negotiations
for the sale to the city of San Francisco
for Si2, ,000, 900 OF water works in which he
Is principal owner are now pending, and
big mining stock deal in Ophir, the stock
of which he controls, Is now in progrt IS
IL Is believed that large ore body is being
developed in the mine, and the stock has
been violently fiuctuating during the past
thirty days from Sl4 to S57. Senator Sha-
ron Will doubtless realize millions of dol
lars OF profit from this. These and other
interests OF magnitude are what keep him
here. His volunteering to resign amounts
10 noth1ng, as his seat would be filled by a
Democrat by the present Governor of Ne
vada."
A despatch to the N. Y. Herald says that
If Sharon were to start at once he could
not get here for week; and that he Will
not resign until the Legislature of Nevada
meets.

THE Cincinnati Enquirer says the action
of the House on the Bland Silver bill is
the only thing that shines out OF Hthe dark
ness" of the present, which reminds us of
what q vicious enemy once said of John
Randolph, that "he stinks and shines and
shines and stinks like rotten mackerel
by moonlight" The phrase is nasty but 1t
is strong. EVERY evening anil Commercial.
An intelligent reader can well imagine
the sardonic smile that would pervade the
features OF the most sarcastic man that
ever sat In the House, of Representatives
could he now read that paragraph. Ran
dolph would doubtless turn up a lip of
scorn at the ignorance 1t displays and seeing
that an "ignoramus" and an ''ass" had fired

miss the matter with contempt. The re-
mark was used by John Randolph who
thus characterized Henry Clay, with whom
he fought a duel, and made the celebrated
shot into the air, after awaiting Clay,s fire.

MR.. KIRCH'S EFFORTS TO RECOVER
THE BODY OF HIS WIFE

MR.. KIRCH'S EFFORTS TO RECOVER
THE BODY OF HIS WIFE,
Mr.. Kirch aud Mr.. Steinberger have
long been residents of Queens county,
L.. l., and for years been bosom friends.
So close was the Intimacy that when
some time ago Mrs. Kirch died the SYM
pathizing SLeinbeiger offered his lot in
Cypress Hill Cemetery as aplace of buri-
al for her, which offer was gratefully ac-
cepted by the sorrowing wldower, and
the body of Mrs. Kirch was dscently
buried IN the Steinberger lot. After
kirch's bereavement the friendship be-
tween himself and Steinberger cooled so
much that when he desired to place a
monument over his wife's grave to mark
her resting place and his grief at her loss
StelnbeIger refused TO permit its erection
upon his lot. Thereupon Mr.. Kirch pur-
chased lot for himself to which he de-
sired to remove the corpse of his wife, but
again Steinberger interposed and refused
to allow the ground to be opened. Mr.
hlrch then brought suit agasnst Stein
berger to recover his wife's body, and
having obtained judgment, he handed
the papers to the Sheriff, directing him to
make the levy. That official, however,
being warned by Steinberger's counsel
against proceeding, consulted Judge
Armstrong, who informed him that a
corpse could not be considered property,
either real or personal, and he returned
the judgment unsatisied. Mr.. Kirch,
however, declares that he will have the
body OF his wife, and MT. Steinberger
has his lot in the cemetery watched day
and night TO prevent its being disturbed.
