GONE UP THE FLUE.

The silver trust is composed prima-
rily of the silver middlemen. 1t stands
between the miners and the govern
ment, which unwisely engaged to fur
nish market for 4,5OO,OOO ounces of
the white money metal per month. It
is the only trust, we believe. that de-
mands that the government shall buy
its product.
The pretense that the job of buying
an enormous mass of silver monthly
and adding it to the dump, taking gold
cut of the national reserve to pay for
it, is the legitimate protection of the
silver industry, is so manifestly false
that the vociferation to that effect
becomes a shabby and scandalous pre-
sumption, and the interference with
public business in behalf of such an
imposture is an imposition Of the most
insolent character. There is no more
sense, as the case stands. in going on
with the purchase of silver from the
trust and paying for it in gold at the
general expense, than there would be
in buying Standard oil by the million
and ten million gallons, storing 1t in
tanks, withdrawing it in order to in
crease the price, paying for it in gold
paper and selling United States bonds
for gold in order to increase eternally
the accumulation of unavailable oil.
The people are beginning to under
stand what is meant by the silver trust
that was, up to yesterday rampant In
the senate, and they should hold those
agents of bumptious monopoly in
the same sort of regard they would
have for a group Of senators represent
ing coal trust to bull the price of
fuel at the beginning of winter.
Today these men stand beaten and
dumb. Bland their leader, as will be
seen in our dispatches this morning,
has cried enough" But do they think
the public is ever going to forget their
cowardly, accursed acts of the last few
weeks? Voters have long memories.
Bland and his gang have been dubbed
into political death. They are not the
friends of the poor men. They took
steps that, if followed, would degrade
labor in our continent to the level of
labor in Southern Asia. Their conduct
has been public wickedness, and it has
already felt the lash of public resent
ment.

him. He has been a cook on the steam

that craft left Portllnd on Tuesday
night the captain lad not paid Stuart
lis wages, amounting to $40. So, de-
termined to recover the amount due,
he asked the attorney to libel the
vessel before she sailed out for British
Columbia. Mr.. Thomson was about to
do this when he ascertained that the
Signal was on the point of departure.
Before he had got the necessary pa
