GLADST0NE'S PEI.
"A Pomerantan Dug which accompanies

Pomerantan Dug Which Accompani
the Statesman on His Walks.
Petz is the name of little black Pome-
ranan dog at Hawarden Castle, to which, it
is said. Mr.. Gladstone has become much at
tached. The dog came from Schwalbacn,
Nassau. where two of Mr.. Gladstone's family
were sojourning for some time in the early
summer Of 1888. Petz belonged to Herr Ber-
soir OF the pension stadt, Coblentz, where
they stayed, and, according to the Washing
ton Post, IN return Tor their attentions he so
entirely devoted himself to the two English
visitors that, when the stay came to an end,
by friendly arrangement PetZ came over
to England and made his new home at Ii A.
warden. The attachment Of Mr.. Gladstone
TO PetZ IS OF course altogether recipro-
Gated. There is no one the little fellow
cares half so much to accompany Oh walk
as MI Gladstone, because he knows that
the chances are that he will get more stick
throwing-Petz's pet passion is running
after sticks-Out of the great statesman
than from the other and more hard-hearted
members OF the family. With this object

morning outside the right honora ole gentle

oiten protested that in throwing sticks for
MIN TO fetch he Is quite unable TO resist or
TO tire out his pertinaclOus little friend.
Nearly all the ex-Cabinet Ministers when
visiting Hawarden have had to contribute
in this way tO PetZs amusement.
MI Gladstone delights in telling his
friends how on one occasion when he was

thought some little attention should be paid
to him, and that some of the chips should
be thrown to him TO fetch. So he kept
piaking mp chip now and again, and drop

OF attracting his attention. Mr.. Gladstone
took IL all IN and appearing not to notice
his little friends efforts, went on with his
tree Telling, determined to try and tire him

distress. Petz picked up large chip and
dropped It on Dir. Gladstone's boot, at the
same time looking up into the statesman

TIE DIsAPPEARANCE OF A CAN
DIDa1E.

d few months ago We were assured that
the most prominent third party candidate for
Presidential nomination was the senior
Senator of California. To put the case
more accurately. he was the most talked
about and most persisiently written up By
class OF men who expected 10 find their
account in the business. The telegraph
made almost daily announcements of the
progress of this candidacy. Papers from
remote parts of the Union had something
to say about il every week. The candidate
himself was interviewed and his oracular
utterances were eagerly appropriated as
having the greatest significance.
In the Western States, partic ulafly in
Iowa, Kansas and Nebraska, the candidate
was supposed 10 be very strong. 1t was
there that his financial scheme appeared to
have gained its greatest popularity. 1t was
declared to be just the thing for the farmers
of the United States. Many of the journals
gave the scheme a strong Endorsement.
The most ardent retainers engaged in work
ing up a public interest in the candidate de-
clared with the greatest confidence that his
nomination was certain.
But in the recent political movement re-
sulting in the calling together of three or
more national conventions. not a word has
been heard about the nomination Of the sem
Tor Senator from California. The financial
scheme which he originated, and which was
said to be going like wildfire all through
the Northwest, is not 80 much as mentioned
in any resolution now embodied in any
platform. There has never been a political
scheme for the benefit of any candidate that
had SO much heat in it and burned
out so quickly. 1t is now so cold that
those who were playing around the Senator,
using Ills name on all occasions, and per-
suading him that the country was Just wait
ing for him as the coming man, are now as
silent as if they had never incubated the
movement.
Most political theories have somewhere
salient point that keeps them alive foi a
time. But this one, which it was claimed
had in it the elements of a political revolu-
ton, actually disappeared from the surface
before any national convention could be
called together. When these political bodies
met there was not a single distinct refer
ence to the political doctrine which the
Senator had formulated and which was to
have vitality enough TO carry candidate
into the Presidential office.

THURMAN AND STEVENSON.

1t will be admitted that in 1888 Mr.. Cleve-
land was provided with a better running
mate than 1892. Allen G. Thurman was
one of the most popular Democrats in the
country. His popularity was well deserved,
lie was the unquestioned leader Of the
party in the Senate until the Standard Oil
Company nut Payne in his place. The par
ticular offense of Mr.. Thurman was that he
forced through Congress a bill which has
since been known as The Thurman act.
which required the subsidized Pacific rail.

the treasury. The railroad kings never for
gave him for that When the Democrats

gained control of the Ohio Legislature a
Standard OIL millionaire was given the sem
atorship. III Thurman had been at the
head OF the Democratic ticket In 1883 the
result of the election might have been diff
ferent. 1t Is certain that his name gave a
strength to the ticket that no Democrat in
the country could give il now. Stevenson

some capacity In the way of decapitating
third-class postmasters under Cleveland,
but otherwise has never won distinction.

thing to do.

SAFETY ON The OCEAN.

Distinct Routes.

Distinct Routes.
Chambers Journal
Safety on ships at sea is a matter of the
first importance TO passengers, and more
especially to the many who travel in those
marvellous specimens of mans handiwork
that cross the North Atlantic Ocean be-
tween the Old World and the New with the
precision of express trains.
1t Is conceded on all hands that the meas
ures in force for preventing collisions are
insufficient for practical purposes, and many
and various plans have been devised for
lessening this too prevalent cause of death
and disaster.
1t has long been felt that danger from col
lision might be considerably reduced if pas

modihcations. Let US sincerely hone for
the sake OF all concerned that the chosen
tracks will be strictly followed, and that
other companies may adopt them without

from collision is lessened, and broken

ate limits OF error whittier to steer in order
to be rescued from their perilous position

TIE FREE SILVER COINAGE PROP
OSITION.

Suppose the bill providing for the free
coinage Of silver which has just passed the
Senate should pass the House of Repre-
sentatiyes, and be approved by the Presi-
dent. what would be the condition of affairs
in California? Silver would fill the place
that greenbacks did during the war,
would it not? Would not gold continue to
be the money of this State? Would not
notes and other debts be paid in gold as
they were in war times, and for many years
afterward? We should have some trouble
about making change, but 1t would be diff
cult to put an end to the circulation OF gold
In this State. In the Eastern States, where
gold does not circulate, dollar would be
