SENATOR JONES speech was the ablest
and most effective yet made. r No
man has devoted more time to the study
of the silver question and no one
belonging to either school Of political
economy is more familiar with the litera-
ture of the subject. Mr.. Jones
speech to-day was effective, because il
dealt with only a few of the questions
that have been raised > > and seemed
to exhaust them both in argument and

SENATOR JONES has advertised from his
curule chair the products Of the Nevada
| mines. He or his scrivener has
seized on the exaggerations and vehemence
of the gold and resumption men to turn
| their position just as Lee fell on Sickles
advanced and unsupported position at
Gettysburg. Mr.. Jones appears
as the advocate of silver reconciliation:
| az the supporter of the ola legislation, and
adherence to the legal status of our oon-
tracts when they were made.-Phitddet-
ri''d Press editorial (SingLe Standard.

of the Senate, and is considered one OF

hours-fsir stand-up fight in favor Of the
RECOMMENDATION Of silver. and he dealt

SENATOR JONES made the best speech
yesterday that could be made for tbs
Bland bill, which is, indeed saying little
for it; the ability he displayed was worthy
of better cause. He has the advantage
of having studied the subject for several
years. = Tribune Editorial.

was the best delivered on the silver ques-
ton, and the Senators, almost without ex-
ception, listened to every word of it, while
some Of them Joined in the applause that
followed. - Washington dispatch, ibid.
