II Major Mckinley wins this battle he
will win it alone. The hot-blooded John
Sherman has been able to keep his ardor
cool even though this is not a legislative
year in which he ls interested. Foraker
and Grosvenor are silent; and those two
gentle shepherds, Delano and Lawrence
have not uttered bleat for more protec-
tion for Ohio wool.
There may be no omens Of dire import
in all of these signs, but surely there is
this to be learned, namely. that the
country is tired of Mckinley
He has prophesied too steadily and too
definitely. He has not pursued the
doubleness Of the Delphic method. But,
with the assurance Of his vast supply Of
stolid and comprehensive ignorance, he
has prophesied booms specific and boun.
tiful, which have not come.
Disasters have come instead. Even
the famous tin plate mill at Piqua where
he, like stupid prophet, who believed
his own oracles, assisted at the birth and
conservation Of a sheet Of tin, has
languished, dropped and died. The
plush factories have suspended the glass
factories, after strikes and quarrels with
out number, propose to reduce wages
and the pearl button industry won't
flourish The British gold Of the
Golden Club has got in its work and
there is a general slump.
TO add distress to this condition Pros
perity Mckinley went out Of his line TO
help the friends of silver and, in
prophesying for that, while he had his
mouth turned that way in 1890, he said
silver would be equal to gold II Congress
would only pass that Sherman bill, and
If that little philosopher then occupying
the chilly northeast corner OF the Presi-
Dental chair would sign IL. Congress
passed it and he signed It, Yesterday
silver bullion was quoted at 81 cents an
ounce and the bullion value Of silver
dollar was 63 cents.
There is whore Prosperity Mckinley
mGde his mistakes He should not have
attended the obstetric ceremonies OF
that tin plate air castle at Plqua,
Ohio; he should not have made a posi-
tive statement about silver He should
have left the back door open. or he
should not haye committed himself.
But, having got his mouth turned
that way, Mckinley did not know any
better-and here we are

COMMERCE is a pretty safe agency with
which to entrust the industrial affairs Of
the nation II cannot be claimed that
Cleveland is bringing gold back to this
country, and Congress is not in session
hence wheat must be doing H. Congress
may undo bad laws; they ought not to be
expected to enact laws TO stimulate, ITO
encourage, "to protect" commerce.
Congress should let commerce alone.
They have neither wisdom enough, nor
honesty enough, TO deal with commercial
matters as the Republican party has
attempted to persuade the country to
allow them to deal Really Congress
is no more competent to deal with com
merce than our City Council is to run the
morocco industry here. They should
keep their selfish, dishonest and incom
petent hands of commerce, off silver,
lay taxes to support the government and
then go home Wheat and gold in the
hands of the bankers and merchants will
do the rest.

The Beautiful and Fragrant Flower as

Those who live in cities can scarcely
imagine the beauty of the exquisite
waxen pond lily in its native region
the pond. Not always do the spotless
blossoms lie upon the serface Of the
water
Often when the floating leaves are
carefully brushed away, scores of the
fragrant flowers are brought to view
Nothing can exceed the beauty
of the delicate rose the tender green and
the mellow golden tints of the outside
petals, so softly blended. The blossoms
are generally a pure white, but often
they vary in hue TO a delicate pink, the
hue Of that Of a sea shell.
The red, yellow and blue lilies of the
modern florists are monstrosities and not
to be compared with the dainty, sweet
blossom in its native state.

THOSE papers which are distressed
that Ambassador Bayard acceptedSan in
vitatIon to dine with the Golden Club,
because, in the language of the Philadel
phia Press, that club "has been dis
credited and disgraced," might become
cheerful over the thought that Mr..
Bayard's great name may revive and re-
store the club. The protection press will
remember, perhaps, that It was pretty
rich and influential club a short time
ago. Il had millions Of pounds of
British gold to expend in buying
statesmen like BayRrd, Carlisle and
Cleveland. An organization that could
assist so materially in driving Harrison,
Mckinley, Quay Wanamaker, Foraker,
Platt and Billy Malone to the wall,
is not TO be sneezed at, especially
when we need gold British or
any other kind, so badly. II the dis
tressed antl-English, intense American
newspapers cannot harbor that thought,
they might try to remember that Mr..
Bayard is capable Of governing his own
conduct politically and socially; but,
in the event that he fails TO do that. he
has the advice Of Secretary Gresham to
rely upon Our friends must try to re.
member that Mr., Bayard is not a Pat
