The Ameer of Cabul reigns over the
country between British India and Rus
sian territory, with underlined boundaries
through a large extent of land in the di-
rection of the Cars territory. Russian
military exploring parties are represented
to be making aggressions on territory
which might be claimed by the Ameer or
the Emperor Of China, and there is dan
ger in the situation, claimants on both
sides representing themselves TO be
wronged. The Ameer is in the pay OF
England, and Is virtually "A vassal of that
power, and an attack on him by Russia
would therefore involve, in all probabll-
ity what was threatened, imminently
only n few years ago, fight between the
Bear and the Lion.
The real cause Of the friction between
the two great powers is the desire of Rus
sia TO deprive England of India In
strengthening her frontiers England Is
able to count upon the subsidized good
will and support of the Ameer. On the
other hand, Russian aggression is untir-
ing and ceaselessly vigilant. The next
great European war will, not improbably,
break out in Central Asia, and where the
line between Russian and the Ameer's
possessions are not properly defined.

He said The question of honest money

of free silver. The Republican party
stands upon safe, conservative ground
The policy of the Republican party upon
all subjects of finance has been an une-

succeeded thus far since the resumption
of specie payment-to make every dollar
of paper, gold or silver the equal of any
other dollar"
lie then exhibited a United States stand

stated, was - cents, and Mexican dollar
of about a cents bullion value, and said !:
The great danger of free and unlimited
coinage is that the silver dollar which
first exhibited will be worth less than the
Mexican silver dollar. Ii is an immutable
law OF finance that the poorer dollar
always displaces the better one. A silver
basis would exclude the $3.50, 600, 600 of

brave and hoped for something better only
he had lost all the fingers on his left hand
and could not do work in the factories or
