TnosE papers which attempted to fas
ten the free silver coinage crusade upon
the Democratic party and then make their
canvass for Harrison and Protection and
Force on the cry of a full dollar for
labor must feel habbergasted now. The
vote Of the Democrats would have been
sufficient TO defeat themeasure with only
half as many Republicans as actually
voted Tho test vote was 1872 yeas
and i29 nays "a majority against
free coinage The resolution to consider
the Silver bill was beaten by vote of
1876 yeas TO l54 nays. The affirmative
vote was made up Of 10 Republicans, 10
members Of the Farmers Alliance and
ll6 Democrats, The negative vote was
made up Of 80 Republicans and 80 Demo.
Gratis Most of the members who were
not present were paired, the best attend
ance being among the honest money
Democrats. Eighteen Republicans were
absent out of their total member
ship Of 81 and only % Democrats
out of their big total Of 234 The
truth is there are Republican
editors who are not in harmony with the
chilly, cold blooded Harrison wing on
the Force issue nor yet with the vulgar
gr5ediness aud ignorance Of the "infam =

unduly anxious to make a campaign ON

| slraDle acquisitions because or supe
rior manners and attainments and fam
lily connections. 1t is here where the
tact and diplomacy and knowledge o.
human nature will be called sharply into
reouisition. The list being made up and
revised number of times, the next steI
is to circulate among the people con
cerned and secure their active co-opera
ton and support. This is the easiest
matter in the world. The people are
only too happy to help along an under
taking of this kind and will eagerly aid
man who has the force and push to
lead them. Subscriptions to the differ
ent events will come almost without an
effort, and each successive event will be
easier to manage than the one that has
gone before
after the first affair has come off it
NAV be desirable to weed out the list of
eligibles, and this should be done relent-
lessly, though the i'll feeling on the part
of those set aside may be greater and
harder to bear than if they had been left
out in the first place. But that must
not deter the man who has set the task
of creating -Four Hundred before his
eyes, and if he is only steadfast and de-
termined and polite, he will soon feel
that the wrath of the sighted will glide
over him as easily as other petty trou-
bles of life. Additions to the ranks may
be made from time to time as circum-
stances may dictate, but they should
only be made with the greatest circum-
spectiOn-With more circumspection in
fact than the formation of the original
list, for it will be found much more diff
ficult to weed out newcomers than it
was to weed out the old.
"This point reached, the man who has
been the active spirit in organizing these
subscription affairs can rest assured that
the battle is won, and unless he spoils it
all by some imprudence or by letting go
his hold, his position as the recognized
society leader of the place is assured.
But eternal vigilance is the price of sue
cess in the social world as well as else
where, and if he wants to retain his
leadership he must make up his
mind to sacrifice great deal of time
and to submit to a great many annoy
ances at the hands of the jealous and
disappointed. He must adapt himself
to changes that are constantly occur
