SENATOR THURMAN thinks that the
tendency of public opinion in Europe
is toward the views entertained in
America-that is: toward rehabilita
tion Of silver and fixing by convention
or statutory enactments a uniform
ratio between the two metals. That
the fluctuations of value between these
metals is productive of serious evil
Mr.. Thurman says seems to be gener-
ally admitted, and that a remedy
ought, ifpossibie, to be discovered and
applied, was not denied. Before the
meeting of the Monetary conference in
Paris some pains had been taken tc
spread the impression that the United
States advocated bimetalism in order
to obtain a market for their silver ,and
for no other purpose; but the facts laid
before the conference and the speeches
Of the American delegates completely
dispelled that error.

Why should the Internal Revenue
Department be abolished, asks the
Stark County Democrat, when it is able
upon short notice to assess and collect
sixty thousand dollars, to give to Ma
hone to elect his repudiatiOn ticket,
and ten times that amount if necessary
in Presidential campaign?The whisky
and beer and tobacco interests can
stand an almost unlimited amount of
squeezing, when it is known it is all
for the benefit of the Republican party.
One hundred millions of dollars or
more are now collected more than is
necessary to carry on the Government,
and whole army of officials kept en-
ployed to collect it. They are always
good for corruption money at every
election. The Internal Revenue De.
partment must not be interfered with
as long as the Republican party is in
power.

pearanoe of the disease the Ather advised the son 10

sured by the local physicians could do moth

LONDON, November 12.-The EconOm-
isl says that Virginia funded bonds
have fallen per cent. because of the
success Of the Readjustor party in the
recent elections.
THAT shows precisely how the Repub.
lican Reputation alliance is regarded by
the financial world. The holders of Vir.
ginia bonds know precisely what Mr..
Mahone's movement meant, and are not
taken in by the flImsy assertions of the
Republican newspapers that 1.-The read
justment question was only an incident
Of the campaign" In fact, it was the
great issue of the campaign. The finan-
cial barometer accurately points out the
true meaning of the result. The naked
fact is, as proven to be fact by the the
above dispatch, that the Republican par
ty has been aiding in a scheme to strike
down the public credit of Virginia, and
the success of the scheme is herein ap.

Mr.. WEAVER, the Greenback candi,
date for President last year, has in
him g vein of dry humor with which
he sometimes "points a moral or
adorns a tale" In speech in New
York City last week, he drew the fow-
lowing humorous picture Of the differ
ence between a ST. Greenback note and
81 National Bank note:
"He said there was an irrepressible conflict be-
tween them. The Republicans had declared that the
greenback must go, and the Greenback Labor party
had declared that the National Banks must go. The
greenback, which is the peoples money, has por.
trait of Washington on it. The National Bank note
has picture of two women bare-headed and bare
footed in wheat field. That illustrates the poverty
thatis brought on by the National Banks"

The most short-sighed selfish editor
we know of, lives in Missouri. He
talks in this way: A doctor will sit
down and write prescription; time,
five seconds; paper and ink, one-fourth
of cent, and the patient pays one,
two, three, FIVE or ten dollars, as the
case may be. A lawyer writes ten OF
twenty words of advice and gets from
ten to twenty dollars from his client

of the propriety of resuming tho coinage

sufficient. Under the late increase OF
