ed by repeated cheers, and at its
end he introduced Gov. Hill.
Gov. Hill re-affirmed the attitude
OF the party on the tariff question
and discussed the silver question at
some length, saying: Our platform
renews the party's pledges of fideli-
ty to sound principles of finance. 1t
reaffirms the National Democratic
platform of 1884, which explicitly
declares: "We believe in honest
money, the gold and silver coinage
of the constitution and a circulating
medium convertible into such mon /
ey without loss. This is a declara-
tion in favor of a double standard
in favor of bi-metallism-in favor
of gold as we'll as silver, and of sill
yer as well as of gold. 1t recognizes
no legislative disparagement of one
metal to the enhancement of the
other; it makes them both
sovereign, both legal tender
for the payment Of debts. However
honestly individuals of our party
may differ as to the means of attain
ing perfect bi-metallism, we are all
agreed upon the desirability of at
tanning that end. The Democratic
party of to-day follows the wisdom
of its great founder, Thomas Jeffer-
son, when he said: "The monetary
unit must stahd on both metals. :"
So in this campaign, in which the
currency question is assuming some
deserved prominence, the Democrat
ic party has planted itself freely and
soundly upon the principle of BIZ
metallism. We not only reaffirm
that pithy declaration of the Ma
, tional platform of 1884 in favor of
"honest money, the gold and silver
coinage of the constitutions" but we
7 90 further and denounce the present
5 Sherman silver law, not merely a:

By United Prese.

New YORK, Oct. s. There were
probably 10000 Democrats in and
around Cooper Union tonight. Mr..
Cleveland presided at the big Dem
ocratic rally. On opening the meet
ing he said:
"My fellow citizens, I acknowl-
ed &c with much satisfaction the COM
pliment paid me by my selection as
your presiding officer tonight.
am glad to meet an assemblage of
my fellow-townsmen on an
occasion when their thoughts
turn to the political situa-
ton which contronts them and
at time when their duty as citi-
zens as we'll as members of grand
political organization should be the
subject Of their serious considera-
ton. If | may be INDUCED a few
moments, | shall occupy much Of
our time in presenting some sugges-
tions touching the condition and
responsibilities of the Democracy to
the people Of the country, and the
obligation and duty at this particu-
lar time of the Democracy of our
State. The Democratic party has at
all times been by profession and
and by tradition the party Of the
/ people. | say by profession and
tradition, but | by no means intend
to hint in the use of this expression
that in It's conduct and action ii has
failed tojustify its profession or been
recreant TO its tradition. 1t must
however, be admitted that we have
had our seasons of revival when the
consciousness OF what true democra-
cy really means has been especially
awakened, and where we have been
unusually aroused to a lively appre-
citation of the aggressiveness and &C.
tivity which distinguishes those who
profess Democratic faith and who
are thus enlisting in the peoples
cause. We contemplate tonight
such revival and the stupendou:
results which have thus far at.
tended it. In view of these things
: we can not be honest and sincere
and fail to see that stern and in
eXorable duty is now at our door
We saw the money of the people
unnecessarily extorted from then
under the guise of taxation. W.
saw that was the result of scheme
perpetrated for the purpose of ex
acting tribute from the poor for th'
benefit of the rich. We saw grow
: ing out of this scheme the wholesale
? debauchery and corruption Of th'
, people whom it impoverished. W.
saw a party which advocate
and defended this wrong gainin
: and holding Of power in the gov
ernment by the shameless appeal t
S selfshness which it invited. W
: saw the people actually blessing tn
e bonds of misrepresentation and mil
conception which held them, and th
sordidness and the perversion OF a
that constitutes good citizenship o
on every hand and sturdy Amer
canism in jeopardy. We saw
n party planning to retain partisa
u ascency by throttling and destro,,
' ing the freedom and integrity OF /
e suffrage through most radical al
' reckless legislation. We saw was
and extravaganza raiding the pu
l. lie treasury and justified in OF

Observation-Disclosures Ambition.

Los ANGELES, GALA, July 14.-Re-
ports of a startling nature have been
received from New York regarding
railroad deal of great magnitude. A
we'll known and reputable citizen OF
Los Angeles recently learned in New
York that the Huntington and Searles
interests, carrying the control OF the
Southern Pacific, had changed hands
and had been acquired by the Standard
Oil Company, Rockefeller, Payne,
Brice, Thomas and others will be ex-
pected to go into the directory OF the
company on September 1, when Mr..
Rockefeller will assume the position OF
President. The informant says he heard
from Mr.. Rockafeller's own lips of this
report, when the Standard king said it
had long been his ambition to control a
transcontinental railroad. His ambition
would not rest with the acquisition OF
the Southern Pacific system for he will
be content with nothing short OF a
through line from the Atlantic to the
Pacific.

CARRYING THE BABY.

A., porL Sim


MA onv ono ever notice with what
exouisite.ease and grace mother Coz
ries little child? There's no poetry VI
motion in all the Delsarte system equal
to it. A big, strong man Jugs a Daoy
along as If it were bundle OF pig IRON.
A slight. frail little woman swings IL up
on her shoulder and poises 1t IKE d
posegay, or better still, veritaDie part

A woman isn't supposed to be nina
full of the charms OF her sisters, OUT tne
heart of a man somehow gives a leap OF
the cleanest, purest kind OF admlratloh
when one of those slight, frall little
women trips alongside with baby Dai-
anced on her shoulder in that comfort
able way a real womanly woman mana
ges it.
In little country Westinghouse the
other day there was military funerai.
The drum-major of the village band sat
in a post of honor surrounded by MS
Respondent corps, and his lap held two
little white-capped mites OF humanity
that hadn't been here very long.
Up In the choir loft little woman
smiled down upon them encouragingly
with eyes exactly like the eyes beneath
the little white caps.
Directly the closing hymn was nm
ished and the muffled beat of the drum
sounded the signal for the band to fol-
low the fag-draped casket, the little
woman, with a swift tide OF color
sweeping over her face, fluttered down
the steps, in and out among the horney-
handed ''bearers." across the church to
where the father sat with both infants
sound asleep.
Without waking either, she tossed the
one up on one shoulder, just where its
little sleepy head fell in the hollow OF
her shoulder against her neck, tucked
the other one under one arm, but some
how so comfortablyit never wakened.
Then she tripped smilingly down the
aisle so swiftly and lightly and grace
fully that, though she wasn't exactly
pretty woman, and had had both babies
since she had bought new bonnet, and
the seams in her dress bodice weren't
the right shape at all, any painter, or
poet, or man with an ounce of blood In
his veins would have envied the fellow
in the bearskin, who seemed a little bit
ashamed.

National Editorial Association.

ST. PAUL, MINI, July 14.-This
mornings trains were filled with mem
bers of the National Editorial Associa-
ton, whose seventh annual convention
was called to order at IL o'clock in
Lifts Grand Opera House with an
attendance of between five and six
hundred. Archbishod Ireland opened
the convention with prayer. Mayor Il.
A. Smith, of St. Paul, extended to the
delegates and their friends the freedom
of the city. United States Senator Davis
delivered the formal address of well
come. Times have changed and the
newspaper has changed with them.
From being servile it has become i'm
perial. Senator Davis then paid an elo-
quent tribute to the city in which the
convention is being held, in whose name
he welcomed them.
President Stephens Of the National
Editorial Association responded to the
welcome address.
Mr.. Stephens after returning thanks
for the welcome said he con-
sidered the northwest as vivid illus
tration of the phenomenal progress OF
the nineteenth century, and continued:
'sThe northwest is distinctively rep
resentative of the cosmopolitan genius
of our civilization. 1t illustrates the pos
slbilities of our people when Invested OF
sectionalism or unencumbered with
prejudice. The movement which with
in twenty years has wrought the mar
velous progress Of this region has been
drawn from all sections of this union,
and in fact of the world, and is pecu-
liarly of that restless aggressive spirit,
which ignoring differences OF every kind
is absorbed chiefly by those consider
atoms which involve the material and
intellectual advancement OF the people.

viii Rai.e the Price of Bottles.

ST. LOUIS, July 14.-The question as
to whether or not the Glass Blowers
Association will leave the Knights Of
Labor and join the American Fedora
ton of Labor, is by far the most i'm
portant one before the convention
which is now in session here. This
matter came up last evening towards
the close of the session, and was, after
a heated and almost violent argument,
turned over to special committee to
report later on. A poll OF the delegates
showed that over one-half of them ia
vored amalgamation. 1t was also as
certained motion will be made to in
crease the price of blowing beer and
mineral bottles IS to 20 per cent, and
that If the demand is not acceded to,
that strike will probably follow. AS
the Association numbers 5000 members
a strike would effect perniciously the
glass bottle business of the country.
