THE DENVER MINING CONGRESS.

Increased interest is being taken in the
coming mining Congress to be held IN

Quite a number of Utah mining men will

1t is supposed that the above will be a
very important meeting for the mining
interests of the West. We do not IN

FOR FREE COINAGE.

The Salt Lake Mining Journal argues
for free and unlimited coinage in the fol.
lowing manner The continued iuctua-
tons In the value OF silver bullion is q
constant reminder that the interest Of
the masses and Of the producing classes
are never safe, never fully protected or
guaranteed, and that they never will be
until the crime of 1873 is asoned for and
the white metal is remonetized. The
variations in the daily quotations on sill
YER is q menace to the producers Of this
precious metal, and q detriment to the
mining industry. The fundamental prin.
ciples of trade and commerce, as fixed by
the constitution Of this great republic.
recognized no difference between gold
and silver. They were at a parity at q
just and proper ratio, and for years this
monetary system was continued and en-
joyed, until the spirit Of speculation and
avarice impelled large money holders to
devise means and ways whereby the cap.
i.alist might increase his wealth at the
expense of the poor, and the degradation
Of silver was the outcome of their ma
chinations. With silver remonetized

Inspiration of a return to the good old
days of honest government, the mining

consignment would net him. Let Us have

We hope Senator John Sherman is q

Another point has been won by Mr..
Cleveland. He has named the baby to
the satisfaction Of the American people.
Either Mr.. Cleveland and Mrs. Cleve-
land have wonderful tact and steadiast
good sense, or the American people are
persistently determined TO find no fault
with them as a family. The people are
with then.-Virginis Chronicle.
Bosh. We have had enough OF that
Cleveland youngster. Every paper we
have picked up for two months, from
east or west, has had something to say
about il. And last Summer we used to
be surfeited with the prauks OF Baby
Mckee in the White House. These ba-
bies are no better than q million or two
Of other babies in the land that we never
hear q word about. Indeed it is great
odds that these are neither the brightest
nor the handsomest babies in the world
by 9 long shot. The baby OF humble pa
rentage may suck its toes and cry with
the cholic without arresting the stten-
tion Of the newspaper press for q single
moment. But when there are babies in
the homes Of Presidents and ex-Presi-
dents the press grows snobbish and de-
votes column after column to the brawl-
ing brats. We are not animadverting
especially against these babies, but the
press for making a fool of itself. 1t smscks
a good deal of the customs OF the old
world, where position is everything and
brains are at a discount. Under our sys.
TEN, nobility is as apt to be found in a
howell as in a palace. A little more apt,
we think, because virtue and manhood
of the higher order usually spring from
the humber walks of life and not from
luxurious environment. Anyhow, we
invoke at least a brief respite from the
nausesting twaddle about the Cleveland
infant, Little Ruth is no better than
any other respectable baby, male or fe-
male,

PLEASED.

II is seldom that an election, or a num-.
Der Of elections, pleases everybody. The
recent Eastern elections, however, seem
to have produced this happy effect. Both
the Democratic and Republican organs
are Growing over the result. We think,
however. that on a close, bedrock analy.
sis, we can detect q tone of sadness and
graveyard whistling in the Republican
sheets which is not to be found in the
journals Of the opposite faith. Also
there are more ~game-cocks displayed in
the Democratic papers. We do not re.
member to have encountered q single
"rooster" in the columns of any Of the
dyed-in-the-wool advocates Of the COP.
From all of this ii is but fair to conclude
that the Republicans facility admit that
the Democrats have the best Of the stu
alton as claimed. There can be no ques.
ton, we think. that the advantage is
slightly on the Democratic side, but not
by such overwhelming odds as to settle
the Presidential election next year in ad'
vance, or without q hard struggle in
which good luck and q failure to make
mistakes between now and then will fig
ure as important, If not controlling fac
tors. We are not out of the woods yet.

iowa DESERVES 1T.

A movement is on foot in San Fran
cisco to secure the holding Of both Ma.
tionAl Conventions in that place. The
Republican Committee meets in Wash.
ington the latter part Of this month. The
meeting Of the Democratic Committee
will take place about two months later.
The time is short for San Francisco to do
much with the Republican Committee,
and we doubt if anything is accomplished
in that direction. In so far as the Dem
cratic Convention is concerned we hope
it will not be held in San Francisco. Cal.
ifornia is not entitled to the slightest
attention or consideration at the hands
Of the Democratic party. 1t is q Repub.
lican gold bug State beyond hope of re.
demption now or hereafter. The sensible
thing for the democrats to do, il they
are coming West with their convention,
is to give it to the gallant Democratic
State Of Iowa.

.rHE LATEST FINANCIAL FAD"

The latest financial fad or the free
coinage Of silver may be said to have
been exploded. 1t has gone the way OF
the rag baby OF 1875. The Democrats
will hardly be unwise enough to shoulder
a losing issue in 1892. There is another
illustration in this that, however a ques-
tion may be belonged at the beginning,
q verdict in favor Of the right on the part
Of the people is sure TO be rendered in
the long run. But possibly of greater
Importance than the election Of McKin-
ley is the announcement that the Legis-
lature Of Ohio will be Republican by q
handsome majority. The fact that Re.
publican, almost certainly John Sherman,
will be returned to the United States
Senate, is Of value.-San Francisco Bull
letin.
II is only necessary for US to say that
the Bulletin is a Republican organ, pub
lished in the gold bug Republican State
of California, and that it calls free coin
age "the latest financial fad, and glo-
ries that it has gone the way of the "rae
baby Of 1875" That might be true i
the Republicans had swept the country
but there is still a God in Israel and
triumphant Democratic party in a sufi-
cient number of States to take care o
silver and the rights of the people.

1.-THE CREAM OF EUROPE."

Mr.. Andrew Carnegie, the Pennsyl-
vania plutocrat. was recently interviewed
on the subject Of immigration, and ex-
pressed his views in these words:
I say. don't touch immigration; let it
flow on. We are getting the cream Of
Europe. We need all the population We
can get. / say, hands of immigration.
The GLASS of immigrants we are getting lie
30 good that European statesmen have
complained to me that we were not get.
ting the due proportion of indolent, vi
cious and weak elements Of the popula-
ton.
Carnegie believes in free trade in labor
to operate his protected iron mills. His
position lie dictated more by self-interest
than the conviction that as q nation we
are. being benefited by the tremendous
immigration now pouring into this coun-
try. 1t is gratifying to know that the
lawmakers OF the country and the people
generally are not with him, but are dis
posed to draw the line tightly at the
point of selecting and choosing our com-
pany in the future. If we are getting
the cream Of Europe" in a good many
cases, God help the skinned milk that IL
left behind.

NOT AN AVAILABLE CANDIDATE

Under this caption the Reno Journal
Of the 9th instant has an article which so
nearly reflects our own views that we
cannot do better than to appropriate it
as q whole: Ez-President Cleveland yes
terdsy expressed his opinion Of the result
Of Tuesdays elections. He thinks the
Democrats ought to be satisfied, though
he expresses regret at the def sof Camp
bell in Ohio, who, he says, is q brave and
honest official.
MIR. Cleveland sees in the elections IN.
m~istakable evidences Of Democratic sue
cess in the Presidential election in 1892,
and he doubtless desires to keep himself
conspicuously before the people. The
election Of Flower in New York, how
ever, prove that Mr.. Cleveland is not
an available candidate for the Democratic
nomination next year. He is not in &C.
cord with the majority Of his party
in the West and South on the silver
question. This ought to be sufficient to
keep him in the background as q Presi-
Dental aspirsnt, but, as it is not, the
fact that he is not popular in the great
State of New York, should be. That
State is reliably Democratic except when
Mr.. Cleveland is a candidate. He failed
to carry it in 1858. though Hill, the Dem.
ocratic candidate for Governor, was
elected. In 1890 the State again went
Democratic, and for the first time in
many years, had q majority on joint bal.
lot in the Legislature. Now il elects 3
Democratic Governor by an increased
majority, yet if q Presidential election
should take place next week with Mr..
Cleveland the Democratic nominee for
President, the chances would be deci-
dedly against his carrying the State. Az
Mr.. Cleveland must.know this, if he did
not love Office more than party, he ser
tainly would not be a candidate for the
Presidency,

THE .raIBUNE, ON FLOWER.

Judge Goodwin in the Salt Lake Tri-
bune has this TO say Of r. P. Flower, the
newly elected Governor Of New York:
Looking over the field there is no
surprise in il to rs, except in the major
ity which Mr.. Flower received. We ex'
pected he would win by 10000; and in
that expectation we counted simply on
Fassett holding his own in the country.
He did not; be fell behind so badly that
even the effort Of the County Democracy
in New York was not sufficient TO make
his vote even respectable. And then we
do not think there was much detection
from the Democratic ticket anywhere.
The Democratic party is better disei'
plined than the Republican, and however
much they may growl at the beginning
of q campaign, when the alternative
comes to vote for their own candidate or
the Republican, the rule is they vote for
their own candidate or they stay at
home. Then there is one more feature
through all the campaign, at home and
abroad, Mr.. Flower has been underesti-
mated. He is a very considerable man,
and his election has this r~edeeming grace
to Western Republicans, he is absolutely
solid, and his ideas are absolutely cor
rect on the silver question, and he is in
Just the place where he ought to be able
to do the cause Of silver . great deal Of
good"
The SENTINEL had several articles five
or six years ago claiming that there was
good Presidential timber in Flower even
81 that time, and he has developed q good
deal since from contact with public men
and public questions. He is a broad
guaged strong.sensed conservative man.
He has always been q bimetallist, and we
heard lately that he had voted last Win
ter in Congress with his party for free
coinage. We had not kept track OF his
record, but it seems to be satisfactory to
the Tribune. That being so he stands in q
very good position to become the Demo
cratic candidate for President, and thus
help the West out on silver. We believe
he will be able to defeat both Cleveland
and Hill for the New York delegation if
he starts in for it. That he is popular in
New York has just been shown by his
late remarkable race for Governor. a
good part of the Eastern press is already
discussing his chances for President, and
we know him to be immensely popular
with all of the Democratic Senators and
Congressman from the South. We shall
not be surprised II there is a boom for
Flower by next May that will insure his
nomination with a rush.

NEW YORK CLANS.

The Mail and Express is a Republican
paper of the rip-snorting kind. The day
before the election in New York it pub.
lished, among a thousand other similar
squibs the following:
DoN'T BE A CLAM N VOTE FOR
FLOWER, misrule, misery, mischief, mall
f~easance, murderers, scalawags, jailbirds,
plunderers, forgers, colonizers, ballot box
stuffers, plugs, thugs, bunco men,
ohumps. pullers and the army Of scum
that follow in the wake Of Tammany.
But Notwithstanding the warning the
people of the Empire State proved them
selves clans by nearly $4,000 majority.
The funny thing in the result is that the
country, "above Harlem. was not fright.
ened by the noise about Tammany. II
the Mail and Express has drawn . cor
rect picture the great metropolis must be
q very tough place. There seems to have
been about $4,000 more plugs" and
"thugs" than Of the other kind of peo.
pie. But seriously, the reelection say.
ings of . bitterly partisan and unfair

PRESIDENTIAL POssIBILrrrEs.

The San Francisco Post holds that Mo.
Kinley did not carry Ohio with such q
sweeping majority as to entitle him to
serious consideration for the Republican
nomination. 1t therefore virtually con-
cedes that President Harrison will have
no formidable rival in the National Con-
vention Of that party. In discussing the
possibilities on the Democratic side the
Post concludes that 1.-THE election Of
Flower in New York puts him into a very
prominent place among the Democratic
possibilities for next year. He has car
ried New York by about 40, 900 majority,
which is more han twice as great as
Hills majority in 1883, and nearly forty
times as great as Cleveland's majority
over Blaine in 1884. Flower is a man
who is personally very popular in New
York, who has few of the enemies that
Cleveland has stirred up against himself,
and who is said to be above the trickery
which has marked Hills political career.
If New York is to name the Democratic
nominee it is by no means impossible
that il will be Roswell P. Flower.
"This forecast looks only to the nom
i~nation. II will be time enough to dis
cuss the election some months from now,
when the conventions have been deter
mined upon and the issues Of the cam
| paign framed. At the present time II
certainly looks as though Hill and Cleve.
land, like the fisherman in "The Ara
bian Nights" had released q gent in the
person Of Flower, who bids fair to be
too powerful for both Of them, and who
will not c%onjure himself back into seclu.

II must be admitted that New York is
Democratic. The fact is not gratifying
to Republicans, but it is not Democratic
enough to be much comfort to the De.
mocracy.-Enterprise.

THE ELECTORAL COLLEGE.

Since the admission Of the new States,
the Electoral College lie composed Of 40
members, making 223 necessary to .
choice. By including New York, New
Jersey and Connecticut as Democratic
States, the Democrats can rely safely on
oil votes in the Electoral College, which
would leave them only IL short OF a ma
jority. Connecticut and New Jersey
have been reliably Democratic in the last
three Presidential elections, and New
York may now, we think, be counted
quite safe for next year. Indiana, with
Is votes, Massachusetts, with Is, Iowa
with l3, Montans with 3, and Idaho with
3, making a total Of 49, may be classed
as doubtful States. out of which the Dem.
ocrats need get but IL votes to succeed.
Illinois, Wisconsin and Rhode Island are
by no means certain for the Republicans,
though q little more apt, we think, to go
for that party than the Democratic. Nor
is Ohio entirely removed from the doubt
full category, considering the conditions
under which the recent campaign was
fought, which resulted in the meagre ma.
jority of only about 5000 for the head
of the ticket. There will probably be no
change Of issues, but the men who shall
lead their respective parties will have
much to do with determining the result.
With q silver man ct the head Of the
Democratic ticket, as against Harrison
on the other side, there is no reason why
all Of the mining States should not be
added to the Democratic column. The
figures can be made In q great many
ways, but everything considered, IL seems
TO us that the Democratic prospects are
not inconsiderably the best. One thing
is quite obvious, and that is that the Re.
publicans have the largest number OF
doubtful States to look after, non of
which they can afford to lose. And more
important still is the fact that the coun-
try has shown q growing tendency to
Democracy Of late years. In the whole
history Of this country there have been
something like a half-dozen contests over
the tariff, and each time the final settle
ment has been made on the lower lines OF
taxation levied on the people. History
will be but repeating itself if the present
agitation results in the same way.
