MR.. VAN sLYKE's VICTORY

IL Il
The election of WILLIAM A. VAN
SLYKE to the upper branch of the COM
mon council by a majority of forty-four
has been disclosed by the final canvass of
the returns. The GLOBE is sure that
this will be gratifying news to the city
at large without regard to party, and 1t
is deserved tribute to conscientious
and capable officer and a public spirited
citizen. Mr.. VAN SLYKE has done
much more for st. Paul than st. Paul
can ever do for him, and it seemed de-
pressing comment on popular appreci-
alton of good service that he should
have been defeated at the polls by men
unknown to the community and without
any record for achievement on its be-
half. These latter tidings right what
appeared to be grievous wrong, and
it IS no slight token to Mr.. VAN SLYKE's
popularity for him TO have survived a
cyclone in which some of the Republican
candidates received a majority of nearly
four thousand. The GLOBE predicts
that ere many days have passed a feel
ing of regret will settle down over this
city because several Of the other Demo-

JOHNSON ON WOOL.

Since Congressman JOHNSON, of
North Dakota, has been catching the
public eye and ear by the strength of
his speeches really delivered in con-
gress, not merely printed in the Record,
the faction that would throw him over.
and nominate another as a Republican,
has been willing, as it were. The speech
the gentleman made in opposition to the
free wool bill is pronounced corker.
1t may not have been quite in line with
his convictions, but he knows that most
of the sheep men still cherish the old
notion that somehow the tariff helps
keep I'D the price, and benefits them. A
leading Republican paper of the state,
while a supporter of Mr.. JOHN
son, mildly suggests that, perhaps
in his zeal to please his con-
stituents, he does not quite present the
facts in their right bearings. Whatever
the effect the tariff may have had in
keeping out the wool of Australia, wool
Is cheaper now thaa it was last year or
before the passage of the MCKINLEY
bill. In the manufacturing districts of
the East, many of the wool men who

ton as rule, doubt the value OF the
duty to wool growers. They do not be-
lieve that the passage of the SPR NIGER
bill will put the price any lower. This
North Dakota Republican paper finds
many intelligent wool dealers who hold
that the place for protection. il any
where, is not on the fleece, but the manu-
featured articles. The latter must con-
tain a variety of woods, the better quail
ity of this country and the coarse, cheap
wool of South America, otherwise
shoddy is largely used and an inferior
article produced that cannot compete
with the manufactures of skilled labor
and untaXed raw material abroad. The
American gOods cannot go to foreign
markets. as cotton manufactures do.
Consequently, they produce less and do
not use so much American wool. The
demand being less, the prices fall, and
the wool grower is damaged rather than
benefited by the tariff. No doubt Mr..
JOHNSON understands this, but finds
the other view easier to work as Re

rHEREPUBLICAN CONVENTION


The Republican convention yesterday
was a very successful entertainment as
such entertainments go. The familiar
face of SAMUEL LowENsTEIN was
missed, TO be sure, and his absence cast
gloom over the first half-hour of the
session. But Senator DAVIS was on
hand and in good order, and inspired
the delegates with words of encourag-
ing eloq He added new star TO
his party'S armament by claiming for it
the credit of having established the
majesty of the American hog i'll every
nation under heaven. Readers of
Martin Chuzzlewit will be inclined to
believe that the American hog ante
dated the birth of the Republican party,
and that our learned senator is stretch
ing things a little when he makes its
prominence in society contemporaneouS
with the administration of BENJAMIN
HARRISON. The idea, however, was
very gratifying to the convention, which
eheered with great harmony and unan-
unity in response to its presentation.
and if the Republican party wants to
be responsible for the majestic hog, the
GLOBE is not inclined to begrudge it
the honor. All the remaining proceed
ings of the day were also marked by
spirit of harmony and unanimity, but
nothing was more harmonious and
unanimous than the vote on the reSOlu-
ton checkmating STANFORD NEWEL'S
aspirations for place on the national
committee Ii is much to be regretted
that our genial fellow tOwnsman is not
to enjoy the dignity which his friends
were ambitious for him to have, but he
has the satisfaction of knowing that in
both Wednesday and Yesterdays con-
VentiOn he defeated F. L. MCGHEE for
the position of delegate at large to he
Minneapolis convention by substan-
tial majority. This is glory enough for
one week.

sILVER's TIME HAS COME.
An International Conference Fa-
yOred by Britishers

An International Conference Fa-
vored by Britishers.
LONDON, May 5.-A large and influ-
ential meeting was held today at the
Mansion house on the subject of an in
ternational conference Oh the silver
question. The brokers in bullion were
numerously represented. and delegates
were present from many of the banks
of the eastern part of England. The
necessity of international action as to
silver was earnestly discussed. and the
opinion was expressed by all the speak
ers that the time had come for re-estab-
lishment of silver on sure and salts
factory basis. A strong resolution was
passed in favor of an International con-
ference to consider means of bettering
the silver market. The resolution was
sent to Lord Salisbury, the chancellor
of the exchequer, and the first lord of
the treasury.
The bimetallists declare their belief
that yesterdays action of the Manches-
ter chamber of commerce, following
similar utterances on the part of London
and other commercial bodies in favor of
EuS lduu . tdhiHS paw III al iiibSiu
tionaI movement for the fixing of
workable ratio between gold and silver.
will result in the government being
forced by public opinion to take steps in
the direction Indicated. The enthusiasm
of the silver people seems to have, how
ever, got the better of their Judgment,
and it is evident from the tone of the
general press comments and interviews
with business men that they are a little
ahead Of public sentiment on the queS-
ton.
The Liberals are watching the silver
movement closely and their organs are
already .denouncing the blmetallist ag-
itators rs engaged in an insidious con-
spiracy to tamper with the workings of
natural laws of trade for their own per-
sOnal benefit. In view of Mr.. Glad
stones well known opposition to bl-
metallsm Mr.. Goschen, chancellor of
the exchequer. would not venture to act
on the suggestions of the silver men so
long as the Conservatives are in their
present state of uncertainty as to con-
tinuance in power

PRESIDENT HARRISON would be will
ing to see some of the Republican con-

way of his administration if they would

influential ones will come without any
assurance that they will stand by BEN
