THE DISPATCHES WAR on THE DEMO
CRATIC PLATFORM

The Dispatch has walked up. 1t is kicking,
and kicking against what? A plank in the
platform of the national Democratic party.
The platform of the party demands a repeal
of the act of Congress which imposes tax
of 10 per cent. on notes issued by State
bank, and the Dispatch says it shall not be
done. Which shall prevail The voice of
the Democratic party of this nation or the
voice of the Richmond Dispatch Win
some as are the cadences Of our neighbours
music, give US the mighty voice Of all the
Democrats of this Union as it was thundered
in Chicago.
There is fitness in the Dispatons method
of fighting the Democratic party. When it
goes into battle ii takes its weapons from
the arsenal Of the Democratic party's
enemy. Yesterday it fired whole broad
side into the Democratic platform, every shot
being taken from the columns of the New
York Nail and Express OF course the Mail
and Express opposes the repeal of the
tax. The Democratic party is fight
ing for the repeal; the Mail and Ex-
press is fighting TO beat the Demo
cratic party; ergo, the Mail and Express
is fighting the repeal. But all the argu-
ments the Mail and Express brings forward
to defeat the Democratic party Gas repro
duced by the Dispatch amount to this:
That the Democratic party are seeking to
overthrow the present National Bank law
and substitute for it system of State
Banks. But why will not our neighbor
cease rehashing arguments of this sort,
which have no relation whatever TO the
point? The Democratic party is not seeking
to overthrow the present National Bank
system.
1t proposes to leave it just Us it is. All il
demands is that the act Of Congress impos-
ing tax of ten per cent on the issues of
State Banks shall be repealed 80 that State
Banks may Issue currency if they choose to
do so. But it would leave the National
Banks untouched. They may 20 on issu-
ing currency rs long as they please, and to
any extent that they please. No one OBJ.

Mr. Gordon certainly presents the cause

He seems 10 indicate. however. the posi-
bilitv OF correcting by legislation the de-

every remedy which could be asked for by
any fair man who desires 10 perpetuate
government under whose laws all men Will
bs treated alike will be found in the princl-
pies Of the Democratic psrty.
We note with special pleasure the en-
phssis placed by Mr.. Gordon upon the de-
mand of the Democratic party that the
United States tax on State Banks OF issue
be repealed. The benefit to our impecunious
sections from this measure will exceed any
thing which was possible for any free silver
legislation.
We commend most cordially Mr.. Cor
don's effort to restore the line Of our Demo
cratic ranks, but while We may expect to see
a large majority Of the members of the ALI
ance voting the straight Democratic ticket
ii will be very difficult to satisfy those agita-
tors IN the Third party whose ambition is
to make politics profitable business.

demand is that some other Banks may do
the same thing. We see no reason why the
National Banks should have monopoly OF
currency issuing. We are party OF tree
dom.
"Hands off, is our doctrine for govern
ment. Let the Government keep the peace
and restrain one man from trespassIng upon
another. and the Government Will have
done all that it belongs to Government to
do Then let individuals, or Banks, or
what not put out as many notesFss they
want to put out or rs they can get any per-
sons 10 take from them. The principles OF
common sense. the law OF evolution will
regulate the whole business. The worthless
notes will be discarded, the notes OF solvent
parties will find currency.
We conceive the Democratic partys doc
trines to have received its most notable &C
cession in the recent article in tho Forum
by David NJ. Stone, editor of the Journal OF
Commerce. This gentlemsn's position as
an authority upon all questions OF finance
is higher to-day, and deseryedly So than
that of any other man in America. lie
comes out unequivocally for repeal Of the
tax. He lays great stress upon the point
which THE TIMES has again and again
urged that the rapid, instantaneous meth
DDS of communication and transit now de-
veloped would make it necessary for every
State Bank to hold itself always ready to
redeem its notes in coin. and this fact
would soon make them as current as any
other paper could be.
We are not believers in Government regu-
lation of any business. We believe that all
businesses should be left to regulate them
selves But if there is to be Government
regulation of State banks we think the cur
renoy of Virginia banks could be made per-
fectly secure by making their notes first
liens upon all their property and by requir-
ing the banks TO deposit the new State
bonds to the extent of say one-half of their
issues with the Auditor 10 be security for
the redemption of those issues.
There would be no difficulty in making
ample provision to secure the notes.

ALREADY the Republicans are descanting
on the beauties of the Mckinley tariff in
fostering the tin plate industry. After all
the exertions which have been put forth TO
build up and encourage the manufacture Of
this plate, the country produced during the
past year, ending June 3Oth, total Of 49,
70l $50 pounds of American tin, Of which
4,539,8 2l pounds were tin plate and 9,l62. 800
pounds terne plate. Here we have the sum
of little over 4,5OO.0 pounds of tin or
canning plate, and the balance, or little
more than 5000 600 pounds. of roofing tin.
Our annual consumption of tin and terns
plato amounts 10 67s, 900, 600 pounds. and of
this sum we manufactured for the year end
ing June SOth. but lS,OOOOO pounds. But
this is not all for this tin was made almost
entirely of imported rolled plates dipped
into imported tin by imported labor What
q humbug the American tin industry is to
be sure.

speech on the tariff at Madison, Wis. but
he wants it distinctly understood that the
money was not paid him as compensation,
but only to defray his expenses. His travel

enormous if it cost him that much TO get
from Columbus TO Madison. Still it may
be so. for everything has advanced in price

city last Sunday passed the following reso-
luton:
Resolved That while we regret deeply
that through the conflict at Homestead
we have found ourselves confronted by an
actual condition of civil war and while we
regard the appeal 10 violence as always cal
culated 20 retard progress, nevertheless we
consider it inevitable that. when monopolies
OF the Frick stripe engage armed mercena-
ries 70 invade and intimidate peaceful CON-
munities, thus drawing the sword, they
invite retaliation from those against whom
il is drawn, and have no moral ftQht u pHb-
lie SymPatby lohen they themselves become
the Uicrms."
The TINES has never said anything about
the bitter. murderous hate Of the labor
union for Mr. Friok so clear and strong as
what the Central Labor Union says for it.
self. If THE TMKs had said that the
labor organizations would declare that Mr.
Frick was entitled to no sympathy when he
was shot down in his Office by an assassin,
who intended 10 kill him like q mad dog
without giving him the least show for his
life. we would have been denounced in q
great variety Of ways too numerous TO men,
ton, and the labor organizations generally
would have been represented as composed
only Of men of peace.
All that we have ever said has been m ore
than INDICATED by the union itself.
PUBLIC indignation in Tennessee against
Governor Buchanan rose to so high pitch
because of his having committed the death
sentence of Colonel II. Clay King to life-in-
prisonment that he was hanged in eiigy.
The papers were especially severe on him,
and feeling was so intense that King had to
be spirited away to the penitentiary to avert
O possible lynching. All this is very bad for
the Governor, for he has just joined the
Third party 10 run as a candidate for re-
election on their ticket He would. Of
course, have been defeated anyhow, but
this King matter has settled the business.
WEdo not believe that Virginia OF any other
Southern State will go for the Third party, or
that enough votes will be drawn from the
Democratic ranks by that party to give any
such State to the Republicans. There will
no doubt be considerable talk and some
buster, but when Southern white men
come to the polls in November and consider
that they are in reality voting either for or
against the Force bill, they will be very apt
TO take no risk, but cast their ballots square
ly for Democracy, white rule and free cleo
tons.
II the New York Herald is right. those Of
us who have been hoping for speedy relief
from the present oppressive heat are
doomed to disappointment. II says that
we cannot expect any long cessation Of the
muggy weather from which we are now suffer-
ing until the temperature of the adjacent
ocean is lowered or strong westerly winds
prevail. and that neither Of these conditions
can be realized within four or five weeks.
