THE Worlds Fair directory by the significant vote of 24 to 1 has decided that hereafter the gates of the Exposition shall be closed on Sunday. Credit for this commend able action is not due the members of the directory, but to the thou sands of Sabbath loving and Sab bath respecting christians who re- mained away from the grounds and made Sunday opening a failure from monetary standpoint. It is a sig nal victory in behalf of the right, and deserved rebuke to stony hearted. avaricious Chicago.

HAS THE TRUE RING.
Governor Fishbaek Clearly Outlines
 Democratic Duty.

The response of Governor Fish back to the New York World ap- pended below is the fullest and fair est expression of democratic senti- ment touching the duty of the party in the crisis confronting the nation which we have had the pleasure of reading from any source north or south since the notes of the last campaign died away It is a timely and logical deliverance that will find a hearty response among the rank and file of the party through out the State. It covers the whole ground Read
 NEW YORK. July 17, 1893. Hon. Wm. Fishback, Little Rock, Ark. :.
 The World desires to present with fairness and justice both sides of the silver question. and would regard it a favor Go have you state whether. in your opinion, the repeal of the sherman act would be the best remedial legislation for the present crisis, and whether, un- der the present critical circumstances the extra session had not better leave tariff legislation to the regular session. Wire al our expense. THE WORLD.
 The Governor wired the following re- ply:
 Tn reply to your telegram, the people were promised from every rostrum that if they would give the Democratic party charge of all branches, of the Govern meut, they would repeal the sherman law, establish free coinage of silver and gold at a proper ratio and among the very first things reduce the tariff to a revenue basis. If they faIl to carry out their pledges, and especially if they per init this gigantic conspiracy among the creditors of the world to rob the debtors to be consummated, they will receive a castigation at the next election that will teach all concerned the power of the people when once fully aroused by a sense of injustice The sooner they comply with these promises the better. | W.

IT is not strange that the financial al condition of the government is in the shape it is. Bond holders, mon ey kings and gold barons have die tated the financial policy enforced by the republicans during the past thirty years, and they have grown arrogant in the matter They as sume that opposition to their pet measures is high treason and should be punished in a manner commensu- rate with the ohense. The time is surely here for the smashing oftheir idols, the day at hand for the people to make their wishes the law of the land The first principles of demoe- raey are equal rights for all, exclu- siye privileges for none All legis- lation should be to secure the great est good to the greatest number Democracy is in power Financial and all other legislation should be for the benefit of the many The interests of the masses should be as carefully guarded as those of the capitalists. And the great truth shonld be firmly yet forcibly empha- sized that tho whole people are in finitely greater than few million aires,

THERE is no real foundation for all this talk about the repeal of the Sherman act restoring confidence in financial affairs, That alone would worst matters in the south and west, but the repeal of the Sher- man act coupled with a silver coin age law predicated on honesty, and not catering to the wishes and whims ofthe gold standard advocates, would in a great measure reassure the pub lie and restore faith in commercial affairs. Besides the financial prob lem, there is the tariff question which if treated on the lines laid down in the democratic platform would prove panacea for many of the III now complained of

IT is a foolish and groundless CT TOT for the so-ealled gold bugs" to construe the Presidents call for an extra session of congress as a step in the direction of single gold standard in this country, Both Mir. Cleveland and the democratic party are pledged to maintain the parity of the two metals--gold and silver as the basis of American money. It is believed now that there is in cir culation sufficient amount of silver (and silver certificates ], along with gold (and gold certificates, treasu- " notes and national bank notes to provide the country with the cur rency neeessaryto it's commercial transactions. If more silver be needed in the future it will be pro vided. Such is the pledged policy of the democratic party, and there are no indications that it would be wise or patriotic to change it now.
