SILVER AND WHEAT.

The charge is frequently made that
silver miners alone are interested in
the restoration Of the white metal to
the coinage. Miners, they say, are
the only ones who will be benefited
by raising the price of silver from s.
cents to Sl.29 an ounce. No more
narrow view OF the silver issue could
be taken, and the person or party
that advance such n statement con-
Victs himself either of woeful ignor-
Rnce or of wilIful attempt to deceive
the public.
In his great silver speech in the
Senate some months ago, Senator
Teller, the silver champon-not SEN
Ator Teller the advocate OF Harrison
handled mt some length the rotations
existing between silver and wheat,
and demonstrated very clearly that
the demonstration OF silver was &C
countable for the low price Of wheat
The agricultural classes, the Senator
very justly argued, were as much, il
not more, interested in remonetizutio n
90 were the miners themselves. The
exact facts and figures bearing on
this branch Of the free coinage aues-
ton are now very lucidly stated by
Colonel J. D. Hooper, Of Aspen, from
whose calculations We quote as show
ing the extent to which demonetiza-
ton depresses the agricultural indus
try.
1t is well known fact That the low
price OF American wheat is due to the
competition with wheat grown in In
din. How is the competition brought
about? We will see. The English
merchant buys an ounce of silver in
America for, say, 50 cents. This he
COINS into India rupees which are
worth l3o cents, and he has thus
made a profit of So cents on his ounce
OF silver. If wheat is worth in India.
say, % cents Il bushel, he can buv
with his silver rupees one and half
bushels Of wheat, the actual cost TO
him being only the So cents he mid
for bis ounce OF silver. This is WHY
India wheat can be placed on the
Liverpool market in competition with
the American Product, and we're this
not possible there would be demand
Tor at least 50,OO0,OO0 more bushels of
American wheat, and not only for
this, but for the amount now exported
ootter price would be obtained.
Under free coinage tho English
merchant would be obligel to pay
Sl'%9 an ounce for silver; and tie

Husband and Wife Charge Each Other
 With GrOss Lapses.
 New York Marzh 2.-Justice Ingraham in Supreme Court Chambers, yesterdey denied the motion of Lawyer A. Britton Ravens, counsel for Nella R. Goodwin, in her suit for separation from her hus- band, actor Nat Goodwin, for an ad- ditional allowance for counsel fees.
 Mrs. Goodwin charges her husband with striking and abusing her at various times and places in 1889 and 1890 with losing her jewels at the gaming table, with threatening to drown her in . bath tub in 8 hotel in Anaconda, Mont, and with trying by force and fraud to be- come possessed of their residence, No. 226 West End avenue. His anngaI in come, she says, is from $30.000 to 900.
 MT. Goodwin denies that he ill-treated his wife. He took her jewels during @ quarrel. When he returned them she threw them in his face.
 He could not have attempted to drown her in @ bathtub, he says, because he never saw her in bathtub.
 He accuses her of drunkenness and ir- ritability, and of striking him on the nose with a jeweled ring while they were in London, inflicting wound that did not heal for six weeks.
 He denies giving her the West End avenue house, and saya his entrance to the premises was unlawfully resisted. His income he fixes at $1 ,500 year. He says that while on the steamer La Bour- gogne he had to pay $75 for liquor she had consumed in seven days. .--,-

HE FIGHT TONIGHT.
FItzsimmOns In Good Condition, osahel
 Under Cover.

Under Cover.
 NEW ORLEANS, March 2. .-Fitzsimmon. and Maher are both in the city. Fitz. simmons is in good spirits and weighs TO pounds. He has been training up in. stead of down. He has been allowed q greater variety of food and drink than in ordinary training, and while he has done great amount of hard work daily, he was not forced to wear sweaters, and so gained weight and size while he gained strength.
 Fitz is in better condition than ever before. His skin is clear, his muscles pliant and powerful, and he is quick as lightning in getting away, or in getting any part of his body out of the way. His only ailment is sore finger, the re- suit of knocking out an ambitious negro who courted his fate. The finger, how ever, is not sufficient excuse for losing the fight.
 Madden, for some reason, is keeping his man under cover, and allowing no one to see him. Doubtless the plan is intended to worry Fitzsimmons in the same way that Dempsey was denied the sight of the Australian until the latter crouched over him in the ring.
 The postponement of the Metropolitan fight and the unslaked thirst of many of the Carnival visitors for sport will serve to crowd the Olympic arena on the night Fitzstmmons and Maher meet.
 Half the fighters in the country, from Slavin to Tommy Danforth, are here; newspaper correspondents are thick as bees, and almost every profession has delegations.

JUDGE THOMAS INTERVIEWED.
Does Not Think He Was Unduly Harsh
 .... In the Blaine Case.

Does Not Think He Was Unduly Harsh .-. In the Blaine Case.
 DEADwooD, s. D., March 2.-JudRe Thomas was interviewed yesterday in regard to the letter of the Hon. James G. Blaine, made public last Sunday. The Judge was quite adverse to talking on the subject, but after much persistence consented to explain his position. He said:
 .'Under the circumstances I deem the matter somewhat indelicate to discuss in the public prints after having passed upon the case in a judicial capacity" z.
 In regard to MT. Baine's opinion that he was too severe in his criticism of Mrs Blaine, the elder, and her son, he said:
 'lt seems that Mr. Blaine believes l was too severe, and I regret it very much, as certainly did not wish or intend to be unduly harsh or severe in the remarks from the Bench, though thought at the; time, and still think, they were encouch- ed in the most moderate and conserva- tive language, and upon the clear and undisputed testimony in the case, which In my judgment would have warranted much stronger language than used.
 :" Iu regard to Mir. Blaine's statement of the case do not care to express an opinion as they were not before me for consideration, hence Iwould not consider them in arriving at my judgment, how ever true and weighty they may be. His defense of his son and wife were nat ural and filial. I admire him for the defense of his wife. Doubtless from his standpoint he believes that she was right and may be she was, but, as said before my remarks concerning her were justified by the undisputed testimony in the case.
 q have nothing to say in regard to Father Ducey's statement, except that I have for Mir. Blaine the deepest sympathy in the sad affliction brought about by the ill-adyised marriage and unpleasant notoriety. I am heartily sick of the notoriety, and believe that the matter should now be dropped in the interests of all concerned. 'tg V ssss-

same idea. Under the system that
has grown out Of this, the protected
corporations, whenever they medi-
tate reduction Of wages, too often
begin fortifying their works and
collecting bands Of armed men to
shoot down their employees. And
the employees who have been pro-
missed "Protection" and increased
wages during the campign as a
part Of their privilege, too often
conclude that it is also a part
Of their privilege to "have it
out" with the corporation in pri-
vate war as long as either side can
afford to carry it on. And this is
becoming SO much u matter of
course that even here in Missouri,
free as il generally is from such
disturbances, the Republic was
obliged to attack a Sheriff for
weeks before il could convince
him that it was incumbent on him
to stop the private war at Bevier,
where the capital organization and
the labor organization, intrenched
in separate forts, were sharp-shoot-
ing at each others head every time
they were stuck out from behind
the breast-works.
We are not inclined to think the
world is coming to an end every
time such crimes are committed
against the peace. Dangerous as
they are, and moro dangerous as
they would become if tolerated,
there is sure remedy for them. It
is to stop them. Wherever they
exist the State must vindicate its
authority and maintain its peace.
It is not the privilege of any organ
ization of capital or of labor to car
ry on private war in any State of
the American Union. If bullets
and bayonets are to be used with
out saying "by your leave" to the
State, then the State itself has no
choice but to use the superior
weight of such arguments. At
any cost and at all hazards it must
keep the peace, preventing the vio-
lent disregard of its authority and
furnishing it where it is has been
unable to prevent it.
