can be obtained, and when you are
told that the bill was badly managed,
desire you to know that it was the
'ault of the Republicans, and partic-
nlarly ofthe Senator's from wyoming,
hat il could not be put i'll better
shape. The Senators from South Da-
kota were paired against silver. They
we're telegraphed to after the bill was
before the Senate to ascertain II they
would change their pairs in favor OF
silver, but neither of them would
answer the kilograms, although sew
eral were sent. Mr.. Pierce, of North
Dakota also refused to say whether
he was for or against silver, and his
vote was counted against ii.
write these facts to you because
whatever else may occur l want you
to understand the situation and the
difficulties here. We have done the
best we could, and hope our friends
will not blame us ordoing differently
under the circumstances. Yours very
truly, VIM. NJ. NJ. STEWART.

GOV. Hill the Coming Man.

Governor Hill, of New York, is
the coming man for the Democratic
Presidential nomination in '92, now
that Cleveland's anti-silver utterances
have laid him on the shelf. Hill is
sound on the silver question, too, as
will be seen from the following ex-
tract from speech of his, delivered
Sept. 23d last:
+" Instead Of executing the granted
power to coin the peoples gold and
silver into money, instead of etfeeting
its circulation by gold and silver GER
tificates strictly representative OF
coin, dollar for dollar, the Repnbli-
can Congress has now managed with
out the excuse of war or pretense of
necessity, to add another new-fangled
legal tender TO that promissory debt
currency which the United States
Supreme Court, before il was packed
to reverse its own dedision, rightly
adjudged illegal"
