for in 1894" We say, taking this latter
utterancc of Mr.. Cleveland in connection
with his remarks concerning the benefit
to the country Of the present silver law,
contrary to his expectations, it is reason
able to suppose he would stand shoulder
to shoulder with the silver mcn OF the
south and the west upon the question OF
free silver coinage if. as We have said, the
eXigcncics of the country's business
would require il.
Mr.. Clcvcland's head is %emincntly level
concerning the necessity of educating
the masses upon the silver question. No
people need that more than those rcsid
inc i'm the New England states. They
have been sadly neglected, or rather
sadly misinformcd 10y their gold-bug
orators in regard To- this very important
subject. \ new textbook upon political
economy is much needed among the con
~stitucnts of Iiuar and Edmunds and
Blaine and Hale and the other gold
standard headlights that lead popular
sentiment upon the question in tine iii
rrction of the rising sun. y new dispcn-
satiun should be preached unto them.
In fine south and west, however. Il q
thorough Knowledge of the silver qucs-
ton prevails. and Mr.. Cleveland would
doubtless be surprised at the intimacy
of the people with its practical workings.

MCKINLEY expresses a Willingness to
run for governor of Ohio provided he
a make his fight squarely on his
tariff measure. He doesn't wish to be
handicapped by any state issue, or any
other national issue. He would ignore
the federal elections bill: reciprocity
with foreign nations. and the extrava-
gance of the last congress. and not be
compelled to defend either. The TRIB-
n is not aware that Ohio democrats
will object to Mr.. Mckinley making
his canvass upon his chosen grounds.
He a he beaten upon his own record
in congress without adding to his short
comings all the sins Of his party. Go
right in, Mr.. Mckinley. and win if you
can.

THE striking Pennsylvania miners
seem to have a hard row to hoe. They
are not only face to face with a small
army of Pinkcrton detectives who are
Watching their every movement, but they
are threatened with an avalanche Of Ttal-
lans as competitors for their places. The
miners "a stand the detectives. but the
presence of the sons of sunny Italy will
break them all W. But aside from this
tn" situation Of the miners is becoming
very serious. BY continuing the strike
they are liable to lose. not only their work
in the mines, but the shelter of the
homes which have protected them.

TlW Mckinney tariff has not yet got in
its promised work ON wool. The price
Of that staple seems to be dragging along
in the same old rut without visible pros

future. Montana ilccccs are quoted in
the Boston market all the way from l. t"
- cents for Tine and ~ 10 - for fine me
dunn to - % for No. medium. These
prices ar" not as good as those obtained
under the old tariff, yet many Of the re
publican shcrpmrn of the state swear by
Mckinley and hang their hopes upon his
tariff measure.

AND now it transpires that the Mime
sofa Legislature did not enact the anti
tights bill into law after all. It was
among those which fell by the wayside
in the general scramble for passage dur
ing the last days of the session. But it
furnished a prolific topic for fun for the
wits, and gave rise to a most absurdly
extravagant performance in a Minneapo-
lis theatre in which the female actresses
appeared in boomers and the legs Of the
chairs and tables were modestly draped
in unmentionables. The Minnesota dew
otees to Tcrpsichore will breathe easier
since tn" death Of Mr.. McHale's tight
little bill.
