clearer within the past two months
The democratic party has no longer a
certainty Of carrying all the southern
states. But with all these it will still
need sixtyfour electoral votes, and for
most of them must look to eastern
states. The attitude of the Farmers
Alliance at the west precludes the pos
sibility that il can any longer retain
republican voters in a fusion or COM
bination with the democrats. If the
free-coinage craze is to gain anything
for either party at the west the Farm
ers' Alliance will reap the harvest for
all the seed democrats may sow.
There is not single eastern state
that can be carried by the democrats
on the free-coinage issue, and the
shrewdest of them are well aware of
the fact. If they give up hope of east
ern states and fight for the west on
that issue they are likely to drive all
conservative and business democrats
over to the republican party, as that
party will offer the only chance of
averting commercial disaster. With
the alliance capturing and holding the
votes of the money fanatics, and the
republicans adding to their party
strength the votes of conservative dem
ocrats by the thousand. the democratic
party would have much less chance to
carry any western state than it had in
1885,
The one possibility for that party If
it acts on this policy is that the alli-
ance may capture western states hav-
ing sixty-three electoral votes, or
enough to leave the republicans unable
to elect, and throwing the choice into
the house of representatives But even
if the alliance could by any possibility
develop strength enough to carry Iowa,
Kansas, Minnesota, Nebraska, the Da-
kotas and Montana, it would even then
have not enough to prevent an elec-
tion, though the democrats should carry
New Jersey and every southern state,
and there are some southern states that
they are not at all sure of carrying
Indeed, an attempt to throw the elec-
ton into the house would be apt to
cost the democrats the electoral votes
of several southern states. EEgy
1t may be imagined by western
democrats that they can make the
fight on the. silver issue west and ig-
more it at the east But it takes two
parties to ignore an issue, as Gov.
Campbell is learning in Ohio. In that
and in every eastern state republicans
will appeal with tremendous effect to
the conservative and business elements.
if the democratic narfv consents ~ y,v
free coinage and commercial disaster
for few electoral votes from the
west The bargain would be doubly
foolish, for the goods would not be de-
livered and would cost more than
they were worth if they could be had.
The republican party has taken a
position the great strength Of which is
better appreciated every month. It's

DEMOCRACY AND COINAGE.
Increasing Strength of tho Republica
POsitiOn

Increasing Strength of tho Republican
Position.
When the Ohio democratic conven-
ton met certain eastern democrats put
their shoulders to the wheel and with
a mighty heave tried to push the con-
vention away from the free-coinage po-
sition. They failed, though controlling
about three-sevenths of the entire vote.
Events are proving that they knew
very well what they were about.
Doubtless their motives were largely
personal. They wished to make room
for the nomination of presidential
candidate peculiarly satisfactory to
them whose opposition to unlimited
coinage of silver was well known.
But if they had calculated with an eye
single to the success of the party they
might well have said, as Congressman
Harter, of Ohio, did say, that declara-
tion for free coinage was simply sui

Life Of General Sherman.

No literary announcement Of the year IS Of
greater interest to the general public than
that of comprehensive Life of General
Sherman, which is about to be published and
sold through agents by the noted house Of
Hubbard Brothers, Of Philadelphia. Admir-
able biographies of Grant and Sheridan
complete to the time Of their death, arc
already familiar to the public, but life of
the third great commander, to finish the
series, has been lacking. The various biog
raphies Of Sherman hitherto published have
necessarily been incomplete; and even his
own memoirs, written In 1875, said almost
nothing of his intensely interesting early
life, and not word, of course, of the more
than twenty years of social activity and
fraternity with old comrades since the war.
The work which is now to he issued will
splendidly supply the widely felt demand for
Il history of the great strategic commander.
1t is being written by General o. O. Howard,
man of fine literary attainments. who knew
Sherman better than any other OF his com.
radcs now living, and ranked next but one
to Inn IN the army, and by Willis Fletcher
johnson. whose ability rs a historian is
familiar TO the reading public of America
through his former unusually popular works
which have had millions of readers, and the
sales of their vast editions enriched an army
of book agents. That this history Of Shcr.
man, the last OF the great Generals, will sur.
pass all others IN popularity is not to be
doubted.
The story of this great Generals career Is
of marvellous march from the mountains Of
time to the sea of eternity OF the three
great war heroes, Sherman was by far the
most Interesting personality He was the
best known to the public and the best Ioyed
for his genial disposition and warm sympa
thy with the popular heart. Hc has Joined
his ilIustrious Compeers in the eternal
bivouac of the dead. His is a life to study
to emulate-and is a profound insplration
The forthcoming volume will tell the whole
story of his marvellous career, and from the
authorship engaged upon it, we arc assured
it will be told in way that will enthral the
attention and interest Of every reader from
first to last 1t is book every American
will want and every American youth should
read. 1t will doubtless he the best life OF the
great chieftain published, and we predict tor
It wonderful popularity.
