THE NEW HAVEN V0LT

The Republican revolt at New Haven.
Connecticut, is one of the most significant
events that has occurred since Blaine's nom
ination, and ought to startle, if it does not
command the respectful consideration of
Blaine and his followers. 1t is not often any
candidate is nominated for office, high or
low, whose nomination provokes the dissent
and revolt of the best element of the party
as does the nomination of Mr.. Blaine. A
large representation of the faculty of Yale
Colleges clergymen, physicians, mechanics
and other professions and occupations, lead
ing lawyers, wholesale merchants and agents
or proprietors of six large manufacturing es-
adjustments attended the meeting. So ii
cannot be sneered at as a congregation of
''dudes,n ''slimsn and "weaklings,' which
are the usual terms applied by Mr.. Blaines
organs to Mr.. Blaine's critics.
Mr.. Baldwin, a leading member of the
Connecticut bar, presided. He is a gentle
man of great ability and eminence. What
he said of the Changer" involved in Re-
publican defeat by the Democracy, ought to
impress every one as characterized by great
good sense. After saying he would be glad
to form a new party, an American party
which would know neither North or South,
but that time had not arrived, he besought
his hearers not to be frightened by the old cry
that the country is in danger if the Republi-
can party is not in power. '1n danger
from whom2" he asked, and added; 'I am
not afraid to leave my country in the hands
of the American people. If there be danger
it comes from those who are willing to sur
render their consciences to their party"
Thus the leaders of public opinion, the
men of independent minds, honesty, pa
triotsm and conscience in the Republican
ranks, spurn the nomination of Mr.. Blaine,
and the movements OF such men indicate a
dissolution of the derisively called ''grand
OLD party" and are sure to seal the doom of
a candidate who has been false to honor and
integrity in his political career, and with him,
end the life of party more conspicuous for
its later corruption, than for its earlier,
avowed attachment to correct principles.

.JUDGE SPEED,s REASONS.

The last survivor of the cabinet of Abra-
ham Lincoln has written Il letter stating that
he will not vote for Blaine. Among his
reasons for this decision are the Republican
platform and Blaine's dangerous foreign pol
icy AS to Blaines iingo policy Judge Speed
says ''no personal magnetism or brilliant SEN
tences can compen safe for such blunder
To vote for him would be like voting against
the peace and honor of my country. lean
not do that, even at the bidding of the Re
publican party Then; his letter about the
surplus revenue is monstrous. 1t shows
him to be unsafe in his views of the frame
work of our government as he is in regard
to international law. 1t is charitable to say
that the latter is the child of ignorance, for if
not it is the child of demagogism.
In conclusion Judge Speed advises all who
agree with him in these views to vote with
him for the Democratic candidate.

MILWAUKEE, Aug. 1.-The examination Of
Peter McGeoch in regard to the lard deal
eollapse was resumed before Commissioner
BIoodgood .his morning. The willy Scotch
man stfll declined to answer all of the mos
pertinent questions. He said Wells, who
had $3.50, 900 in the deal beside certain
profits, knew more about it than any other
man living. A pork deal that both were in
before the lard deal netted $500, 600, and
Wells got half of it. MeGeoch said that the
failure was precipltated by bankers and
others selling lard that they were holding az
security. There was 81, 100000 indebted
ness in addition TO the secured claims after
the smoke Of the wreck had cleared away.
After great deal Of legal sparring between

In buying paper at the depot news stand
the boy gave me Canadian silver coin with
hole in It, | demurred little to this pro-
cedure when he explained by saying, 1--WE
don't take American silver with holes, at its
face, but we do our own money. That is
just as good with hole as without it.'' Not
being citizen of the country he supplied me
with sound coin while l reflected what a
huge gag this discount on coins with holes
has grown to be. 1t originated with
sharp fellow at st. Louis
who got out a card with a
scale OF discounts for punched coin and
wv" @iOuho W tuC odlOOaS IGldll SbOiCo
and sold his cards at ten cents each, telling
them that this was in accordance with s'the
new law" Now, there is no law, and has
been no law on the subject, but St. Louis
people didn't know the difference, and in
weeks time the fellow had reaped big har-
vest OF dimes, and punched coin stood be-
low par in that city. The game worked so well
in st. Louis that it was extended to other cities
and the sale of the discount schedule went
on until the matter spread over the whole
country. 1t was nearly year before the
new dodge permeated the east remember
when it began in st. Paul l declined to ac-
cept it, but it finally became too universal to
stem the tide. So, too. with the trade dollar
