A UNIQUE UNION,

An earnest attempt to straddle q peril
Gus situation is made by the enthusiastic
E. Ellery Anderson, one of the most un-
wavering supporters of Cleveland In a
recent interview designed to reassure the
public mind on the Democratic prospects
Mr. Anderson states, first, that careful in
vestigation shows that all discomfort is
disappearing, and that the GOODNESS be-
tween the machine and the Syracuse Con-
vention will vanish, after which he de-
clares, with regard to the Peck statistics,
shat the motive of the report is apparent
on its face"
But hold on. The only motive that can
be alleged from the Democratic stand
point is such as to make the disappear
ance of discontenta remarkably optimistic
proceeding. Peck is a Democratic Off
cial, supposed to be attached to the for
tunes of David Bennett Hill. The in
timation that his statistics were
produced by a "motive" has no
significance except as an assertion that
they were cooked up to injure the Demo-
cratic cause. But when a public official
goes to work to injure his own party can
didats by producing statistics to suit that
motive, as Anderson practically alleges, it
is the most unique way of bringing the
factions into united effort, as Anderson
further alleges, that has been recorded in
political history.
Perhaps after the Hill Democrats have
stuck this statistical knife into the vitals
OF the Cleveland candidacy they may be
less discontented than before. But to
suppose that Cleveland Democrats will re-
main contented under that process is to
credit them with an amazing fund of stole
philosophy.

SULLIVAN RETIRES

How are the mighty fallen! Sullivan has
seen his last fight, and he not only retired
from the ring robbed of his laurelS, but he
left his opponent practically unscathed.
Anyone who watched the eager, excited
crowd surging around THE DISPATCH
bulletin boards last night realized the
enormous interest taken in this
matter up and down the country.
May be it is a pity that this interest should
prevail, but its existence is not to be ig-
nored or theorized away. Thousands at
New Orleans and millions all over the
world have waited for and watched this
contest with an intens9 interest which has
been productive of a comparative apathy
on other and more intrinsically important
tGpics.
Sullivan has been before the country so
long and he has filled it with his voice so
loudly that his retirement cannot but be
very distinctly felt Thousands have
fawned on the ex-champion with utter in
fatuation, and scoffed loudly at whomso-
ever dered to impeach his claims Cor
bctt fought under all the odds that at
tend the appearance of new man, and
be fought right well.
The popular enthusiasm over prize
FIGHTS is-as Mr.. Cleveland would say-a
condition and not theory that confronts
us. Such being the case, it is at least
satisfactory 70 find that in this, the
Oympian contest of the ring, real ath-
leiicism and scientific skill got the better
OF brute force and abnormal physical
develobment

HARRISON NOMINATED.
Republicans in National Convention
have done Good Work

There convened at Minneapolis
this week the ablest, most patriotic,
country-loving body Of men that
this land possesses. As every one
is supposed to know their coming
together thus was for the purpose of
placing in nomination Republican
candidates for President and Vice
President Of these United States.
While all have one object in view
the success of the party and well
fare of the country-it is not strange
that they have preferences and diff
ferent views as to the best means
for bringing about the desired re-
suits and for this reason deiiberation
and judicious caution delayed action
somewhat.
Harrison and Blaine had the lar
gest following, in the order named,
and at the last moment before going
to press the denomination of Har-
rison was announced by telegram.
BY this action the party is safely
intrenched by an administration
of acknowledged ability and stamina
the world over, and one singularly
free from scandals to meet and ex-
plain, and the party will fall in
line and support the ticket with old.
time enthusiasm and fidelity.
The platform which has been
adopted is stong for protection, reel
procity and honesty money! while
plauks ON civil service, southern
outrages, worlds fair, intemperance
and other topics are well fitted in,
and the Harrison administration is
commended for its ability and true
Americauism.
IIurrah for Harrison!
Mineral Point tribune. (Mineral Point, Wis.) 1869-1938, 1892-06-11

question is to play any part in the
coming Presidential campaign. He
made several startling assertions.
For instance, that under the pend
ing bill "any holder of silver bullion
may have it minted into silver
dollars at the rate of sixteen ounces
of silver to one of gold. But the
trouble is that one ounce OF gold is
worth more than sixteen ounces of
silver. An ounce Of gold will buy
to-day in any market in the world
twenty-threa ounces Of silver" And
again: ''The deposits in our saving
banks foot up 1888, 200, 900. What
will be the effect Of the free coin
age of silve~ on that vast amount
of money? 1t would take away
one-third, or s5,0Oo,00O,0OO, from
its value. If the depositors should
attempt to draw out their money in
gold or on basis Of gold it would
precipitate a panic and bankrupt the
country. The laboring classes, the
pensioners and the savings banks
depositors are the people who would
be injured. God only knows do
not-who would be benefited by it,"
The joint resolution making the
18th of October, 1892, a general
holiday in commemoration Of the
four hundredth anniversary of the
discovery of America, has been
adopted by the Senate.

WASHINGTON, D. c., June Is. 1892.
Senator Hill was very neatly

the silver question last week, and

with the silver men. Senator
Morgan says he intends 70 Try to

A Plain Duty of Ministers.

1t is to refuse to marry boy and
girl they do not know. More
especially is it their duty to decline
to perform a marriage ceremony for
them if they come to the town
where they live from another state
or from a distant part Of their own
state. The plain presumption in
either case always is that they have
eloped and that they have escaped
the vigilance of their parents or
guardians. A clandestine marriage
