WHAT DOES 1T SAY?

Some Of the democrats press now
declare that tie Democratic plat
form does not call for free coinage
OF silver. The Liberal Enterprise
denies it. Here is what the Demo
cratic Platform says:
eve hold to the use of both gold
and silver as the standard money of
the country, and to the coinage OF
both gold and silver without dis
eliminating against either metal or
charge for mintage."
is there no free silver 10 these
words? What is the meaning of the
words without charge for mint
age? Isn't that free coinage :?
What is the meaning of the words
coinage OF both gold and silver
without discriminating against eth
er metal"? Don't they mean coin
age of both metals on the same
terms? Can these words mean any
thing else? Do they mean free
coinage OF gold? Then they mean
free coinage of silver. Ifthey mean
coinage of gold on any terms, they
mean the coinage OF silver on pres
cisely the same terms. Words could
not possibly be arranged together
whose meaning would be palmer
and clearer. II the National DEM
ocratic Platform favors the coinage
of gold, it equally, and upon the
same conditions, favors the coinage
of silver.
These are true true words and
every intelligent man knows it.
President Cleveland and every dem
ocratic Congressman were elected
on that platform. We already have
free coinage of gold, and now they
stand pledged not to discriminate
against either metal" and therefore
they must provide for the free coin
age of silver. There is to be no
"charge for mintage." They won
on this pledge, now they must not
violate it.

FREE GOLD.

Secretary Carlisle has ordered
that the United States minis at
Philadelphia, Pa, San Francisco,
Cal be fully manned aud the full
capacity Of both minis will be att,
lized in the coinage Of gold bullion.
The treasury department possesses
from sS5 100000 to s90,O0O0,O00 of
gold bullion, which is a part OF the
gold reserve of S100,000,000. Gold
bars cannot be used as currency, so
it has been decided in the present
to coin the bullion on hand. This
bullion will be coined into SO, S.
and $3.50 gold pieces, preference
being given to the first two denomi~
nations. The coming capacity of
the Philadelphia mint, it is stated,
will be between S., 100000 and So
100000 month. Then San Fran
cisco mint will also be utilized, but,
unfortunately, nearly all the bullion
possessed by the government is in
the East. There are S20,0O0,00O of
gold bullion in the Philadelphia
mint, ST., 100000 of it being in one
vault where it has remained un,
touched for fifteen years. Acting
Director Preston visited Philadele
phla Saturday and completed ar.
rangements with Superintendent
Bosbyshell to begin work at once.
The treasury is now paying out
gold coin all over the country, and
as consequence stands more in
need of gold coin than heretofore.

on last Monday, repeating the pur,

lied under the Sherman act. The
vote stood on the different PROPOSE

Seventeen to one, yeas, 100; nays,

1856; nays, 213; majority, ".
On the final passage of the Wilson
bill, yeas, 240; nays, 10; majority,
$50.
The bill now goes to the Senate
and will be passed by that body.
That will repeal the Sherman act,
called by the Democratic platform
''makeshift," and will open the
way Tor the Democrats 10 enact
measures putting both gold and sill
yer on a parity. Now they have
carried out part of the Democratic
platform and now lee them carry
out the balance of it, placing silver
on the same footing as to coinage as
gold, repeal the ten per cent State
tax, reduce the tariff and give US a
graduated income tax. DO this and
they will have done good work.

LEFT HIM $500. 900.

The story OF the luck of John S.
Huff of Railway, n. j., sounds like
a fairy tale, but it is apparently
founded on fact. Huff is bachelor,
43 years old, and all his lite has
been a good Methodist. Two years
ago lie attended a religious meeting
in Plainfeld with his friend, William
Stewart.
Charles Easthoff, a young Calls
tornian millionaire who was travel
ing around the country, net him
there, and took quite fancy to him.
When Easthoff became i'll some time
afterward, Huff nursed hi until he
got we'll again. Easthoff developed
a strong friendship for Huff after
this, and told MIN he would leave
him all his money when he died.
The young millionaire died eigh>
teen months ago, and the other day
Huff, so the story goes, was informed
that he had fallen Eelr to his fortune,
which is variously estimated at be-
tween 100000 and 100000.
Huff has been exceedingly reticent
about his windtall, and at first did
not even tell his sister, with whom
he lives.
Recently Huff has declared his
intention OF dividing the windtall
with his friend Stewart. Huff was
formerly doctors clerk. The for
tune left by Eastnoff i said to con-
sist of real estate in this city, Phila-
delphia, and San Francisco, and
stocks and bonds. Huff expects to
go to California shortly to wind up
the estate.

MARTIN and MORTON.

Morton, of Nebraska, secretary Of ag-

tor Martin, OF Kansas, on Thursday.
Morton, who made a big fight against
fusion in Nebraska, says he understands
the situation in Kansas better than any
other member of the cabinet. Martin
had called TO see him with reference to
some patronage for Kansas fusionists.
Morton in the presence of two other men
said that he regarded man as more re-
putable who stands by his party in the
face of defeat, than he who combines
with hostile parties for personal political
success. Martin replied that 'Fusion IN
Kansas was recommended by Harrity,
German, and, in fact, by the Democratic
committee and by Cleveland, and Why"

KANSAS AND MASSACHUSETTS.

The Topeka Journal contrasts the CEN
sus returns of Massachusetts, and Kansas
in this fashion: kansas, SO the United
States census says, has a school for every
1872 persons, Sunday school for every
400. only one criminal for every 1000,
and an increase of wealth during the
decade of 40 per cent per capita; MasSa-
chusetts has school for every $40 per-
sons, a Sunday school for every / $50. a
criminal for every 500 persons, and per
capita increase of wealth of per cent.
Not only that, but the per capita mort
gage Indebtedness of Massachusetts, Is
$144, in which it stands next to Kansas
with ITO. This is not good showing
for such an old and wealthy state"
1t must be remembered that the above
figures of $40 per capita for Kansas
were gathered nearly three years ago,
and that the heavy payments of mort
cages since would undoubtedly reduce
the Kansas per capita considerably be-
low that of Massachusetts,. The compar-
isOn is not favorable to the Yankee state.
Evidently the oft repeated wall of the
calamity howler, that "'the poor are grow
ing poorer. and the rich richer" needs
revision for people who do their own
thinking.

of which the gates TO the grounds arc
to be opened, beginning next Sunday,
but the buildings to remain closed, was
pleasing intelligence 10 the many. 1t is
said THAT what forced this concession
from the managers, who had stoutly op-
passed the opening of the gates. was the
scenes witnessed last Sunday, wherein
the 20, 900 persons who presented them
selves at the gates for admission bat
were turned away, sought entertainment
