TO AVOID DISCUSSION.

Mr.. Sherman Hoar of Massachusetts
loves smooth places and to take his ease.
He has posed with George Freddie as
the spokesman of the sound money
Democrats, but of late he is credited
with seriousl !. considering the advisa-
bility of making no opposition to the
passage of the Bland Free Coinage bill.
To pass it through the House and trans
fer it to the Senate is the suggested
scheme, with view of getting rid of a
long and Improbable discussion. "
Shermie knows that he and his are out
numbered and outgeneraled, and is dis
posed to give mp the campaign. Dis
cretion is the better part of valor, but
Shermie might have won more applause
by bravery.
Ii is said that Shermie has q consider
able following in his new and prudent
line. Representative Bentley of New
York puts the whole thing with can
dor which amounts to bluntness, when
.he declares that "a debate can only ex-
pose the division of sentiment in the
party" But Mr.. Bentley need not fret;
the division has lain naked for weeks to
the blasts Of winter, and no discussion
can strip it of clothes it does not wear.
Moreover, from the party stand point,
the dissensions are much more serious
over other matters as to which the Dem
ocracy is more evenly divided. The
sound money Democrats are so small n
faction that they can come out with
clear consciences and fight in the open.
AS the big man said TO his little wife
when she pommelled him, if it pleases
them it's all right, because it can't hurt
the free silver fellows.
This is the view that we trust will
commend itself to Shermie. The bold
policy will win him more bravos, indie
pendent of any moral considerations.
Let him speak his mind freely against
Mr.. Bland of Missouri, down him with
his logic if he can't with votes, and then
trust to the Senate and the President to
bring up reenforcements to his position
You can't consistently do anything
else. Shermie.

OUR HOME MARKET.

American wages enable us To live nos
only comfortably, but even luxuriantly,
according to the standard of other coun-
tries, for the iuxuries of foreigners have
become necessaries 10 the people of the
United States.
1T is this ability of our masses tn buy that
makes our splendid home market.
IL Is of several times greater value to us
than all the accessible worlds markets
combined.
We consume over 90 per cent. of our ag-
riculturial products, and this is also true
of manufacturers.
Every worker at manufacturing in this
country consumes over 500 worth of our
agricultural produce per year, the English
laborer consuming only s4.4e worth.

sell, which so alarms the Journal.
