Victorren Sardou's "Princess Andrea
d and Shakespeare's Much Ado About
4 Nothing" will follow IN the order named
during Rhea's engagement Of three nights
at the Grand commencing Monday even
ing.
III One Of the very few legitimate Irish
plays is Jessopand Town ends "Mavour-
neen,' which comes to the Grand the last
three nights Of next week with Satur-
day matinee. The presentation will be
by August Pitou's company; the role
formerly played by w. j. Scanlan (Ter-
renoe Dwyer) will be interpreted by
Chauncey Olcott. the accomplished
tenor, who is credited with having made
q hit in his treatment OF tho character.
The play is picture of Irish lite one
hundred years ago, and the costumes
and scenery are in accord. The plot
deals with the story of country boys
rise to affluence and fame, acquired by
his service in the Revolutionary army,
his successful thwarting Of the machina
tions of villainous captain, and his sub
sequent marriage to the girl Of his choice.
The humor is pleasing and the occasional
bits Of crude philosophy we'll interpo-
lated. The chief feature which seems to
distinguish "Mavourneen" from other
plays which deal with Irish life is the fact
that Ireland is not represented as a
country in which there are nothing out
oppressed peasants and scheming land
lords who lie awake nights to plan evic-
tions. 'Mavourneen" is picture of true
Irish life among the better classes, des-
pite the absence of an unintelligible
brogue. All the original scenery used in
the New York production will be brought
here, and the presentation will be as
nearly as possible Identical with the
original. Every one OF Scanlan's famous
songs will be sung during the action of
the piece, by Mr.. Alcott.

selves have the benefit of the gain
accruing from coinage.
Silver bullion is quoted at 83 cents in
London and in New York at 80 cents
an ounce-4S0 grains. As the coined
value of 371i grains is 81, the value of
480 grains-one would be S1.29;
and this is the sum the bonanza
princes would get for their silver-an
advance of more than 40 per cent over
the present market value in New York,
or clear gain of nearly $4,000: on
every ton of bullion over andsabove
the large profit realized on the Halter
commodity. The silver kings have
tremendous selfish interest in the sue
cess of the free-coinage measure, and
in respect of the interest of the public
at large they seem to hold the senti-
ment the late Mr.. Vanderbilt is re-
ported to have expressed.
The interest the South and West
have in the free coinage of silver is also
easily understood. The result would
be practically an enormous imitation of
the currency. Gold would be at
premium and there would be general
advance in prices. In the Souths Sand
West the farming class in particular is
largely in debt. Farm products-cot-
ton, wool, corn, wheat, etc.-would
bring higher prices Gin silver), and in
this currency-at a discount as COM
pared with gold-debts contracted on
gold basis would be liquidated. Prac-
tically, free silver means heavy
scaling down of debts and correspond
ing mulcting of creditors. Hence the
support free coinage has in the South
and West, and hence also much of the
opposition in the North and East,
where those debts are held.
But there is also in all sections of the
country much of honest opposition,
much of opposition on principle, TO a
measure so thoroughly demoralizing, so
fraught with ultimate disaster even to
the class that might reap from it tenn
porary advantage. The selfish silver
producing interest, the selfish or I'M
thinking or ill-advised debtor class,
the demagogue Selling the opportunity
to advance his political fortunes, con-
stitute the piebald forces that are now
clamoring for free coinage of silver.
Defeat take them, now and hereafterl

The Silver Issue.

1t is stated that the benefit Colorado
would derive from the enactment of
the bill for the free coinage of silver,
even if limited to the American
product inside of the first thirty days
from its passage, can hardly be real
lied. 1t would be way up in the
millions. Denver has to-day, locked
up In the vaults of the smelters and
the banks, tons and tons of bar silver,
worth millions of dollars. 1t is in most
cases deposited as collateral, and about
thirty per cent of its actual value has
been loaned on it. The owners do not
like to sell on low market, and as
long as they can secure enough money
to pay expenses propose to wait. This
has been continued for time long
enough to force the banks to refuse
loans-hot on account of the security,
but because they have not the neces-
sary funds.
This explains in part the urgency of
the situation from the point of view
OF the most obstreperous supporters
of free coinage-the owners of silver
mines and holders Of silver bullion.
On 37l4 grains of fine silver, costing
about 70 cents, the United States gov.
eminent puts its stamp and it passes
for one dollar. Under existing laws
the government buys bar silver at the
market price, coins it, and the gov
ernment-the people--reaps the benefit
of the difference between the market
value and the coined value. If free
coinage were the law, holders of silver
bullion, in any amount, could send it
to the mint, have it coined at the gov
ernmenps expense, and would them

Republican State Convention.

A republican state convention will be
held at Montpelier Wednesday, April 10,
1892, at ten o'clock A. M, for the purpose of
electing four delegates at large and four al.
ternates to attend the republican national
convention to be held at Minneapolis, Min
nesota, on Tuesday, June Z, A. D., 1892, at
twelve o'clock noon, and for transacting
such other and further business as may be
brought before it. The republican electors
in this state and voters, without regard to
past political affiliations, who believe in re-
publican principles and endorse the republic
can policy, are cordially invited to unite
under this call in selecting delegates to this
convention. Towns will be represented
in convention on the basis of one delegate
from each town, and an additional delegate
for each one hundred votes, and for each
fraction of one hundred votes exceeding
fifty, cast for the republican candidate for
governor at the election in 1888. Delegates
will provide themselves with proper Gre
dentias, signed by the secretary of their
several primary meetings, and present them
to the state committee at their headquarters,
the Pavilion hotel, Immediately upon their
arrival in Montpelier. The usual courtesy
of fare one way will be extended by the
several railroads in the state. Explicit di.
rections for securing round-trip tickets, ETC.,
will be given upon the blank credentials
sent each town committee Arrangements
will be made as far as possible by which
each delegate will be enabled to return on
the same day. On the above basis towns
will be entitled to representation as follows:

The Sound Money Struggle.

The Free Press says: " As was to be
expected, as a matter of course, Con-
gressmen Powers and Grout of Yer
mont were found arrayed on the side of
sound money in the vote on free silver
in the house." The inference, then,
is that the large majority of republican
representatives who voted for the re-
port of the committee on rules assign
ing time for the consideration of the
Bland bill at the present session of
congress were arrayed on the side
of" free coinage or unsound money.
Is this what the Free Press means
to imply?
The situation is, we believe, better
understood by the majority of Vermont
republicans and by the majority of
the Free Press readers. Voting for
the consideration of measure is one
thing; supporting the measure itself is
quite another thing. Whether voting
against the former proposition or
voting for it is vote for sound or I'M
sound money is a question that must
be answered in the light of all the cir
cumstances. The democracy has a
majority of $50 in the house of repre-
sentatives. The majority party is three
to one in favor of free coinage.
Whether the free-coinage bill should
be considered now or after the presi.
dental election was the question, and
with the democrats-it was simply a
question of expediency. Many of the
democrats who voted for postponement
are free-coinage men. They were less
honest, more crafty, than their out
spoken brethren who voted for i'm
mediate consideration. They believed
they could fool the people as to their
real sentiments and ultimate purpose
and could persuade the republicans 10
assist them in their policy of conceal
ment. The republicans have gone on
record as TO free coinage. 1t was i'm
portant to put the democrats on record.
Neither party should be allowed to
dodge an issue so vital, or to enter the
campaign with a lie on its banners.
Real safety to the country lay in i'm
mediate consideration, in unmasking
the real purpose of the democracy, in
determining its real attitude on the
silver question, before entering upon
the canvass for the next president and
the next house of representatives. To
expose the danger was to avoid it, now
and hereafter. The republicans who
voted for immediate consideration did
patriotic duty. They "were arrayed
on the side of sound money" They
pursued a right policy, and, as the
North American Of Philadelphia pitts
it, "they are exhorted to continue to
assist the democrats TO put their party
so clearly on record that not even a
commission of practical liars can put
more than one interpretation upon the
democratic purpose.

Illness of Mr.. Morrill,.

Senator Morrill, is ill at Washington
with pneumonia. Reports of his con-
dition have been somewhat disquieting,
but the following dispatch from Sena-
tor Proctor, received at the WATCH
MAN office last evening, is reassuring:
"Senator Morrill, passed comfortable
night and day, and symptoms are en-
couraging." Mr.. Morrill,, should he
live till the 18th of April, will then be
eighty-two years old. His great age
and the uncommon severity of the
weather have naturally combined to
excite the deepest solicitude as to the
issue of the senator's illness. The
hopeful news from Washington will be
read with greatest satisfaction.

daughter. Referring to the free silver
coinage agitation, he says that before
he goes he shall convert all the prop
erty he intends to use abroad into gold,
"for it is evident that this discussion is
approaching point where there will be
a collapse" and he does not care to
stake very much on the ability or dis
position of the government to maintain
the currency at parity with gold.

IHE silver lnlng OF the democratic
cloud does not seem to tighten its gloom.
GENERAL ALGER states that he will
enter the presidential contest, and says
he has a surprise in store for Charles
A. Dana.

committee to investigate the charges
against Isaac H. Maynard, who took
such notorious part in the steal of the
New York legislature. The committee
is to report on the 22l inst.
INDIANA republicans have held their
state convention and chosen strong
Harrison delegation to the Minneapolis
convention. The attempt of disap-
pointed effice-seeker to air his griev-
ances in the convention was Kissed
down.
THE Messenger confesses to a willing
ness to see the Office of lieutenant
governor seek Colonel Stranahan.
provided the Office observes due deco
rum in the search; and the WATCHMAN
must perforce accept its contemporaries
disclaimer that its partially for its
townsman has in any particular entered
into its advocacy of a representative
farmer for governor. Colonel Strana-
han was brave soldier. He is high
minded, chivalrous gentleman, entirely
competent, and would adorn the office
OF president of the senate. If the rep
resentatives of the party consider him
the strongest man for the second place
on the ticket, he will have no more COR
dial supporter or sincere well.wisber
than the WATERMAN.
The WATCHMAN received the
richly-deserved rebuke of the st. AL
