lsENA TOR WILSON ON CLEVELAND.


SEN.4 TOR WILSON ON NCLEVELAND
Senator Wilson, of Maryland, on being
asked his opinion of ex President Cleve
lands letter, replied that he was not sur
prised at the views expressed, inasmuch as
those views are in perfect accord with the
opinions always entertained by Mr.. Cleve
land, and over and over again, officially and
otherwise, declared by him; nor is he sur
prised that when invited by leading and
represt ntative men in the community where
he lives to express his opinion on deeply
important question like that of free and un
limited coinage Of silver, under the circum.
stances and conditions now existing in this
country and throughout Christendom, that
able statesman has done so plainly and un-
reservediy, inasmuch as such a course is
eminently consistent with his manly, frank
and straightforward character. His course
on this subject is in perfect accord with that
pursued by him on the question of tariff re
form. When he wrote his message to Con
gress on that great subject there were multi
tudes of Democrats either directly opposed
10 his views or laggards in their adoption.
Now, Democrat who has not fallen into
line upon that policy, which has ever been
the real attitude of the Democracy of the
country can scarcely be found. There has
been no action of the national Democratic
party in any way adopting unlimited coin
age ofsilver, under existing circumstances, as
co.,
probably majority of the Democrats in the
country, who individually hold to that doc
trine, whilst there are multitudes oi Repub
licans who also adhere to the same view
lealty thereto. AT this juncture. at least
twenty two months before the next national
convention can be held, TO denounce one of
the most prominent Democrats of the coun.
try for the expression of his individual
views, inimical TO free coinage, as in his be-
lief dangerous measure, and TO hold him
10 be an unfit candidate for the presidency
on that ground is needlessly TO throw an
apple OF discord into the ranks ~ adopt a
doctrine, in party sense, which has never
that doctrine one Of paramount Importance
10 every other principle of its time -honored
creed; to read out of the party every oppo-
nent OF Tree and unlimited coinage, and to
invite division of Democratic hosts which
may be serious in Its consequences. And,
alter all, it ought probably lead TO the choice
as the standard bearer of some political
gymnsst, who either has no views on the
subject or, if be has has not the honesty or
the independence 10 express them. 1t is
plainly better 10 wait before speaking out
too loudly and hotIy on this subj ct, to wait
Tor the development of events during the
next fifteen months. 1t is surely unfair aud
unwise to attempt, at this time, as some feel
inclined to do, to impale any presidential
candidate on the sharp point OF this silver
question. 1t is better TO let the people speak
before the politicians seek to forestsll their
choice.

ed Deputy Sheriff Alex Shoemaker. He
was arrested and placed under bonds of
$500 upon charge of assault with
deadly weapon. JAS. Darby and Jas

man and shortly after John skipped the
country. At the recent term of court
District Attorney Porter of Custer county

county for $500. The bondsmen now

the ground that the action should have
been brought in the name of the state
