The Cleveland Leadsr some time since re-

public had offered 20 give an annual sub
sidy of SI5a,000 for a steamship line from
Buenes Ayres TO the United States, pro-
vided this Government would do the same.
That was splendid opportunity to estab-

vantage OF q considerable increase in our

Democratic free traders Of the present Ad-
ministration. who are constantly playing into
the hands of England. did not choose to take
advantage of it,snd the opportunity was lost.

which the United States Government ig-

STILL FOR BLAINE.
Sturdy Words for the Man Who Tzs So
Long Been a Leader In the Party.

Some of our Republican contemporaries
are arguing, against their own honest con
victicus, that the withdrawal Of Blaine from
the contest has been the best thing that
could have happened for the party; that it
has healed up al sores; and that the party
VIII now present a solid front TO the enemy.
We do not believe it. says the San Francis
co ChronscIe. We do not believe that they
believe it. They are simply doing the best
under circumstances which they know have
been Of disadvantage to the Republican
party. James G. Blaine IS to-day the abIest
living American, the representative and
type Of every thing that Is most distinclively
and pstrotcally American He is the most
magnificent exponent of the principles of
the. Republican party. Following upon the
heels Of Cleveland free-trade message, the
decIin2tion Of Blaine to become the car
didate Of the Republicans leaves that party
in d quandary.
Who SO able as he to voice forth in tru:n-
pet tones the principle OF protection 10
American labor. Who, like he, so endeared
to the masses, whose hearts-under the
potent spell Of his magnificent intellect, his
never-sUe-ving fealty to country and his
uninterrupted fealty to party-have been
las wax 10 receive and as marble TO retain.n
Let US not disguise the fact. The with
draval OF James G. Blaine-now known to
be definite and not to be reconsidered-has
taken from the ranks the leader who could
have carried the party to victory, if any
body can. Let US not kick the lien when he
is down By even the slightest insinUatlo1
that his withdrawal has been to the benefit
Of the Republican party. James G.. Blaine
VIII neyer be President Of these United
States, but he viii live with the most
brilliant names il American history. When

COLIN CAMERON,
 Secretary pro tenn
Silver Circulation.

A report from the treasury de-
 partment for the fiscal year ending
 October 1st., 1888, presents some argument in shape of statistics
 which gave strong confirmation oi the claims made by the friends ot silver coinage, and proves conclu- sively, as every investigation has, that the positions assumed and the objection urged by the mono-metal- ists in the interest of Wall street, were false and had no basis in fact
 This report above referred to shows notwithstanding the organized op- opposition and the means used to prevent it's use, silver in the form of certificates has during the past year, entered into circulation to the amount of $218,56 an increase over the amount issued last year of $64,2O6,775. It is thus shown that during the fiscal year ending Octo- Der 1st., 1888, the increase in the circulation of silver by certificates alone was over e5,000,000 per month add to this the amount of silver dollars used as currency and it will be soen that the coinage of the minimum amount of S2,O00,0OO per month, will not long be su fi- cientt to meet the'increasing demand.
 The outstanding certificates in 1887, were reported at $154, ,354, ,827, and for 1888 $218,571,6 ,601. The in- crease in the year amounting to $64 ,2O6,775, is an exhibit not only satisfactory to the friends of silver currency as showing it's increasing popularity and importance, but al- so that it demonstrates the neces- sity for it's use, and refutes the sus- picious objections which were urged against it, and utterly the prediction of evil which were
