Speaking on the free wool question,
General Golf said that the laborers of
the United States had to compete
with those of Australia, who got only
s cents a day. This fairy story was
exploded by Mr.. Wilson, who proved
from official figures that Australian
shepherds received from S196 TO $500
year and rations-better wages than
American farm laborers get. This
was ''sockdolager" to the General

Friends OF silver.

Silver has several able advocates in
the United States Senate, says the Sill
yer State, though the arch-ensmy OF
the metal, Sherman of Ohio, seems I"
have sufficient influence in that body
to prevent the passage of any aet that
would tend to restore it to its old
standard. Jones of Nevada. made a
great speech in favor of silver at the
time the Bland bill was before the
Senate; Beck of Kentucky has made
several very able speeches in advocacy
of its reconciliation. and Stewart OF
this State has been almost continuous
" introducing bills and amendments
to bills TO place it on an equality with
gold since he took his seat last De-
cember. Teller of Colorado, who has
always been silver man, has just de-
livered a speech in the Senate IN sup
port of Stewards coin certificate bill,
in which he refutcd the assertion that
the depreciation of silver was caused
by over-production. He denied that
silver had fallen in price, as 1t would
buy more wheat, land or goods than
in 1878. and the fact that it would no.
buy as much gold now as then was
due to its demonstration, and to that
alone.
With such able advocates as those
named. it would seem that silver
ought 10 fare we'll in the Senate, hui
somehow when the ayes and noes are
called on any measure in favor OF the
metal, the majority is against 1t.
