They must incur all the odium that
will follow their attacks on the indus

schemes to reduce the wages of Ameri-

of the presidential election will be made
on February s, three months to a day
from the date Of the popular election.
The members of the electoral college
will meet in the capitals of their respec-
tive states for the purpose of casting
their formal votes for president and
vice president on Jauuary9 9. The date
of their meeting j. fixed 10y congress,
and under the constitution it must be
the same throughout the United States.
Under the old law the electors met on

January next following their appoint
ment. But the count of the vote cast
by the electoral college does not take
place until February 5. The three
dates bearing on the election of the

TIE FARMERS srEApFAsF.

1t can hardly be said that the farm
ers went back on the Republican party
IN the recent election. la the strictly
agricultural states of the west the cleo
toral votes were given to Harrison. In
those where manufacturing has devel.
opcd rapidly aud where Its products
equal, If they 10 o exceed, those of
farming, Democracy succeeds. lndi-
ana, Illinois and Wisconsin have be-
come great manufacturing states in the
iast twenty years, and Il number of
cities have been built up from mere
burgs, on the strength of new manu-
ilctu.iug enterprises hat have been es-
taGIishcd. Had those dependent upon
these industries for prosperity given
their support to tie Republican party,
The result would have been otherwise.
This feeling of unrest and dissatisfac-
ion comes from manufacturing cen
tiers, and we believe it to be uujus-
tiiiable. IL was moi through u lack Of
good wages, but through a false idea
that the manufacturers could do even
better by their employees than they
were doing-that they should have IL
greater share Of the profits OF the bust
ness. Men who are doing well are
naturally anxious TO do better. This
ambition kept within proper control
ana free from socialistic influences, is
worthy OF cultivation. But where pre-
juice is aroused by false leaders and
political d~emagogues there Is great dan
ger ri losing the ground already won.
Surely, whptever adverse legislation
affects the manufacturing Industries
nusFb felt 10y the operatives first, by
reducing wages and curtailing the force
If wurkmen. If IL manufacturer is
compelled to take less for his products
he will have 10 meet the reduction by
i~essening his expenses, and help Is the
greatest item of expense i'll every in
down entirely and quits business, he
will save something out of the wreck
for II .'rainy day" If he is unable To
10 so, then the claim of those who
voted against his interest for the reason
that lac Was making too much money
was unfuundcd and false. The artisan
goes out on the street us an idlcr or
non-produccr, or joins the tlllers of the
soil To add to that already uv,rcTowded
tvueatiOn.
All these Ills may be avoided, and the
operatives prove themselves wiser than
the farmers; but they could not he were

tefoire Levi, president OF the confer
ence, objects positively to anything in
regard to them being published. Alfred
de Rothschild will submit suggestions
on behalf OF Great Britain.
The American delegates submitted n
resolution declaring that in the opin-
ION OF the conferenceit is desirable that
means he found for increasing the use
of silver in the currency systems of the
nations. The document prepared by
the American delegates and presented
with "a resolution explained that they
wished that an opportunity could be
afforded to consider their plans. At
the same time they submitted a gen.
eral plan OF bi-metallism offered by the
United States, showing first, that the
establishment and maintenance OF
a fixed parity between gold and silver
and the continued use OF both as coined
money OF full debt paying power would
be productive OF Important benefit to
the world.
The document proceeds: ''These
ends will be accomplished by the re-
moval OF the legal restrictions o ex-
listing and preventing the coinage OF
silver into tuIl legal tender money by
restoring by international agreement
n parity OF value between the metals
ut such II ratio az the conference may
decide upon. The essentials OF such
an international arrangement should
be:
First-The unrestricted coinage OF
both gold and silver into money OF
full debt-paying power.
Second-tiXing a ratio in the coin
age between the metals.
Third-The establishment of a uni
form charge, If any, to the public Tor
minting gold and silver coins.
