THE REPORT UNTRUE.

WASHINGTON, June 8.-The report from
Paris that SANTANA Bay, Santo Domingo,
has been coded to the United States is
officially denied at the state department.
An officer of that department said this
afternoon that no such cession has been
made to. or is sought by this government,
and that United States Minister Durham
has not taken up his permanent residence
in San Domingo and is probably on his way
TO Rayti, being accredited to both countries.
The official added that whatever uneasiness
prevails in San Domingo is In no wise due
to any action on the part of the United
States.

MUST FACE TIE MUSIC.

The Democrats must now ia ce the
music on the Bland bill. By a vote
nearly three to one the House has as
signed a day for consideration of the
measure proposed by Speaker CrIsp's
coinage commit ee, which provides for
the free coinage and the free issue of
legal-tender notes on silver bullion at
its coinage value, after which the House
will 60 on record on the merits Of the
bill. This is what all Democrats who
have particle of political sagacity de-
sired not to do, and what the pig-head-
ed, always-wrong average Democratic
Congressman from the West and South
was determined upon doing. 1t is prob
able that the Republicans voted upon
both sides, but assuming that the seven
ty votes against consideration were
those of Democrats the rest of the 236
Democratic members are in favor
of free coinage. With the free
coinage Democrats the Simpson con-
tingent will vote. This preliminary
vote shows that the strength of tho free
coinage element is greater than it has
lately been estimated. In fact, the en-
phatic Harter, of Ohio, and the Massa-
chusetts daffOdils were claiming, two
weeks ago. that it was very probable
the Democrats themselves would vote
down resolution to consider the Bland
bill before the next session. 1t now ap-
pears that all the votes of the Repub-
licans, if they had been added to those
of the anti-silver coinage Democrats,
would not have suffced to defeat the
resolution of the committee on rules to fix
day. In view of these facts, the recent
prediction of Mr.. Edward Atkinson, the
chief mugwump of Massachusetts, that
"the Democrats of the House of them-
selves would vote to set aside tho Bland
BILL" shows how thoroughly SO bright a
man as he is can be deceived regarding
the true inwardness and unaccountable
stupidity of Democratic congressman.
AS has been stated by the Journal, the
surest method to give the mischievous
silver agitation its final quietus is to
bring it to vote in both houses of
Congress and let it 20 to the President.
By so doing the intelligent people of the
country will know how to vote in order
to keep the silver agitation down until
States assuming the silver burden of the
world, Will come forward to assume it's
share Of the responsibility.

ONE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN PARTIES.

The directors of the Citizens Street
railroad Company in Chicago would
never have thought of selecting Re-
publican of prominence for manager of
their railway in this city because the
city government should be in accord
with that party. No Republican, as a
Republican, would have made such a
suggestion to the directors, and if he
had the directors would not have lis
tened to it. They know that whiio Re-
publicans generally could be relied
upon for fair dealing, a Republican city
government could not be manipulated
to sacrifice the peoples interests to a
street-railway company. They knew
this by experience. When they were
made to believe that the indianapolis
City Council and government generally
would be Democratic, it did not
require an elaborate explanation to
convince them that the way to
get such charter as they have desired
and worked for was to put the manage
ment of their affairs in the hands of an
active and influential Democrat. When
the man was introduced to them who
could control the two Democratic pa
pers which had been fighting the COM
pany for years, who had pull upon the
Mayor, who 80 influence was potent in
the selection of the Board of Public
Works, and whose influence in connec-
ton with the railway company would be
priced by Democratic candidates for the
Council, the directors astonished 1Hdi-
annapolis one fine day with his appoint
ment. Those who were in the plot inn
mediately gave it away by going about
town and, in the most emphatic manner,
assuring people that there was mo poll
tics in it," Yet the first expression of
men of both parties was that there was
politics in il, and some Democrats who
have much tongue and no discretion
declared that the "deap had made
Marion county "solld for the Democracy
for many years." The influence of the
street-railway was felt in the city can
vass from the hour of the change. It
became as much an element in manipu-
lating votes as the local worker. So
much did the management contribute to
the Mayors recollection that he was re-
garded as their man, and he, himself,
recognized the claim by Withdrawing
his approval from the YoItz franchise,
which he had Endorsed. The plotters
were only waiting TO get matters in
shape with the new Council when the
first strike very suddenly appeared and
led TO series of Developments and
created public sentiment which would

1t is important in this connection to
emphasize the fact that no such deal

leading Republicans, because the party
in such city has no boss or half

DEMoCRACY,s FOREIGN ALLIES.

IF there were no other evidence of the
wisdom of protection as an American
policy it would be found in the anxiety
of foreigners to have it done away with
in order to advance their own interests.
Independence Beige, leading paper
of Brussels, Belgium, has an editorial
on American politics, in which it says:
We in Europe must behold without sorrow
every occurrence likely TO enfeebIe the Re-

Here is plain admission that the man

who represent about the worst pauper
labor of Europe, are directly interested
in the success of the Democratic party
in this country, because that party rep
resents the cause of free trade, which,
says this Brussels paper, "to-day is more
than ever necessary for u.s." Patriotic
Americans ought not to desire any bet
ter reason for opposing party which
advocates free trade than that our COM
mercial rivals and enemies abroad are
all in favor Of the same policy. As for
the advocates of protection, they do not
need any better reply to foreign critics
than the words of the London Times,
which said in a recent EDITORIAL: "The
United States do not approach the ques-
ton from the same point of view as our
selves. The object of their statesmen
is not to secure the largest amount of
wealth for the country generally, but to

TIE INTI-CPTION BILL.

A gentleman who recently visited
Washington and sounded members of
Congress in regard to the anti option
bill expresses the opinion that it will
pass the House, but may be defeated in
the Senate. Public sentiment is not as
strong in favor of the measure as it was
a few weeks ago, there being growing
opinion that it is unwise for Congress to
attempt to regulate the markets by
legislation, if, indeed. it is not wholly
impracticable.
The history of the bill to prohibit
specializing in gold is case in point, at
least so far as illustrating the difficulty
of regulating such matters by law is
concerned. The year 1864 was the
darkest period of the war. The result
was in doubt, the Democratic party in
national convention had declared in
favor of dishonOrable peace, specie
payments had been suspended since
1861, and everything looked dark. The
credit of the government, as represented
by the premium on gold, fnctuated
ton. A Union victory sent it up and a
defeat sent it down. The average
price of gold dollar In 1864 was S1.55 in
greenbacks. In the spring of that year
the administration became imbued
with the idea that the prem
ium on gold was the result of
a conspiracy, and it was determined to
try and break it ND by asking for the
enactment of law prohibiting gold
speculation. The bill was reported by
Senator Sherman April Is. 1864 He
said: eve are confident that mere
speculative operations in gold at this
time have an injurious effect upon the
public credit, and that the sale of gold
by party who has no gold to sell is in
furious by exciting gold speculation
He admitted that the finance committee
were not sure that the law would ac-
complish the desired result. but they
were in favor of trying it. The bill
passed and was signed by President
Lincoln. While it was pending the
price Of gold continued to advance,
touching S1.90 i'll May. On the 18th of
June, the day after the bill became a
law, gold was quoted at S1.9S. On the
21st of June it was quoted at S2.04, a
gold dollar being worth S2.O4 in green
backs. Business was paralyzed and
the country was on the verge of a
panic. Congress was overwhelmed with
letters and petitions asking for the re-
peal of the law. On the 22d of June,
four days after the bill had become q
Law, bill was introduced to repeal it.
While this was pending gold advanced
to S2.20 on June q and to $3.50 on June
90. July 1 it opened ut S2s5, but
dropped 80 cents on a rumor Of the re-
peal of the act. AS soon as the repeal
ing act could be reached it was passed
by an overwhelming majority and was
signed by the President within an hour
after it passed. 1t was in force fifteen
days. and not only did no good, but a
great deal of harm. 1t was dead fail

Prominent Citizen Who Took Fiendish De-

SPRINGFIELD. o.. March For some
weeks the citizens of this place have been
living in constant terror of some one who.
lying in wait for passers by. seemed to take
fiendish delight IN clubbing them with O

James Curry saw a man stealing along the
street under the shadow of fence. He

blow and then rushed toward the open

long distance and gradually gained On

ward them, armed with a short club. SO
terrible was his assault that the whole
crowd turned and ran. The man then
rushed back toward town. The crowd
soon recovered confidence and followed.
Suddenly the man rushed toward tho
house occupied by one of the most promi-
nent and wealthy citizens of the place
