PATRIOTIC POLITICIANS.
TAMMANY CELEBRATES THE Ma
TION'S NATAL DAY.
Many Distinguished Speakers Grace the
Occasion-Speaker Crisp One OF
the Oretors-A Letter
from Cleveland.

NEW YORK, July 4.-Ino new 1OrK
Tammany society today celebrated the
1l7th anniversary of the Declaration of
/ Independence. Mayor Gilroy, the grand
sachem of the order, opened the proceed
ings with words of welcome. The
Declaration of independence was read
and then came Speaker Crisp. He be-
gan with burst of patriotism and said,
although there were conditions which
produced uneasiness, uncertainty and
stagnstion of trade, the laws which
brought about these conditions were
Republican laws enacted against the
protests of the Democrats. When con-
gress assembled August 7th, so far as
things could be remsdied by legislation,
he was confident laws would be enacted
which would restore confidence and
bring prosperity again to the nation.
Congressman Benton McMillin of
Tennessee gave an address bristling
with patriotic epigrams and refer
ences,
The speech OF Congressman Clark of
Missouri WAS of the postprandial order
and excited lots of fun.
Hon Robert Z. DeEorest OF Connecti-
cut and Postmaster Charles w. Dayton
spoke and Congressman John r. Fellows
OF New York followed in the most elo.
quent speech of the day, brimfal of
glowing sentiment and smooth and easy
diction.
Among the letters of regret was one
from President Cleveland to Richard
Croker, in which the president said
''Ths ia day which all true Americans
ought to celebrate as often as it occurs.
When, however, the commemoration OF
the discovery of the land we occupy and
the celebration of the day when 1t was
consecrated to liberty and popular gov
eminent are coincident, the occasion
should revive and stimulate all tbs
ennoblipg and patriotic sentiments
which are essential to the safety
and perpetuity of the American consti-
tuition. AT such time it Is fitting that
we rejoice for the .dauntless purpose and
constant devotion that thus far has
marked out the way of our great ma
ton.
eve ehould lose the most important
lesson of the day we celebrate, If we
forgot that the labor and diligence oi
those intrusted with self-goyernment
must be unremitting and always patri-
otto. There never has been q time when
our countrymen should be more 5oberly
reminded that they cannot safely dele.
gate the duties and obligations ol
citizenship, nor neglect to cul.
tivate individual and personal in
terest in public affairs. i
those who now celebrate the anniver
sary OF American independence gusrd
against the sordid struggle for unearned
wealth that stiles patriotisn; if they
exact from public servants the strictest
accountability n the performance o.
public duties If they hold fast to tht
| American ideas that work is honorable
and economy is virtue; if they insist
that there should be honesty and clean
illness in politics, and if they refuse tC
encourage expedients that endanger the
foundation of sound national finance
those who follow us win joyously cele
brate the day in centuries yet to come.

THE CRIME OF THE AGE.
PROF. ANDREWS ON THE DEMONE.
TIZATION OF SILVER.
A Delegate to the Brussels Conference
Suggests Method for Restor-
ing silver to Its
Hieh h Estate.

CoLoRADo SPRINGS, Colo. July A.
The Colorado summer sshool Of science
and philosophy and languagee was for
maily opened THE afternoon in an ad-
dress by Rev. Richard Montague of Col
orado Springs, which was followed by
an oration delivered by Professor An
drews, member OF the international
monetary conference. Professor An
drews began by describing the effect OF
the demonetization of silver In 1873 and
portrayed the demonetization policy as
the hardest, saddest blow to human
welfare ever delivered by the action OF
states.
II do not say that all the stagnation
Of industry since 1873 came from
the fall in prices, following the
demonstration OF silver" said
he, ''but l firmly believe this
single cause. Another effect OF de-
the world into gold-using and a silver.
between them. A Chinese wall hs;
been built between the gold world and
the silver world, worse than any tariff
ever created. This is what palsied Eng
lands trade with India and all the east
and led at last to the recent attempt tc
place India upon q gold basis. What In
all probability would come to pass
would be stringency arising from the
fact that the gold would be instantly
withdrawn from circulation, while
silver would be coined to take its place
Slowly our country would derive great
advantage from siding with the silver
states.
''Besides the United States would
take it's place as one of the great manu-
featuring nations of the silver world
and derive from the position the i'm
mense gain which England has hitherto
reaped, but largely lost by the demone
tization of oliver. But there are
ehadows after all 30 dark that it Is bst
ter, in my belief, not to attempt 1t now
but wait little longer in our present
unhappy and anomolous condition til
we bring Great Britain to join US in re-
monetizing silver.
"But how can we induce Great Brit
ain to act with us? By ceasing to pur
chase silver and refusing to coin more
until other nations will, at the same
time making law ordering the secre
tary OF the treasury to open our mintl
to the free coinage of silver any date
when he is informed England, Germany
and the Latin union, or any two O
those will do 80. Such a stand would
make it impossible for the proposed
introduction of gold standard in India
BY dropping silver for the time being
and joining in the struggle for gold, W.

DENVER, July 4.--The chamber OF
commerce, in conjunction with other
commercial exchanges. has sent an ad-
dress to every commercial organization
in the south and west, setting forth that
the unconditional repeal of the present
silver law, reducing this country to q
gold basis, must result in practically
closing every silver mine and smelter in
this country, ,crippling every industry and
running the wheat, cotton and wool in
dustries. To prevent this from making
silver mere commodity, the CONNER
cisl organizations of this city have re-
solved to unite with the commercial
clubs of other cities throughout the sill
yer, wheat wool and cotton districts, to
appoint one or more delegates to meet

Fastest All Around.

From the New York Sun.
There is rather a noticeable fact about the
San Francisco, the American cruiser which
made complete sweep of the honors in last
weeks rowing regattas of all nations in the
roads. First she won on Wednesday the six
cared gig race over the English Blake. Rus
sian crew and our own Philadelphia and Chi
cago; the twelye-oared cutter race over the
British Tartar and our own Chicago Atlanta,
Newark, Charleston and Philadelphia; the SIX
CARED whaleboat race over the English Aus
tralia and Partridge and our own Atlanta and
Charleston; finally, tine four-oared dingy race
over our Baltimore, Chicago and Philadelphia.
Then on Saturday she won another race over
the Britons. the Frenchmen and some American
crews. The British tars of the Tartar forged
ahead at first. and it was thought the victorious
San Francis had caught a Tartar And it was
SO in the literal but not the meta no,ical sense
She caught and over',au!ed The leaders, and
came home q winner.
We recall a statement printed about the time
when the San Francisco Was fitting out. and
when a special draft of 50 men was sent across
the continent to her from the Brooklyn yard.
that "a finer crew never manned a shin of the
new navy; 1t is estimated that about SO per
cent of the new draft native-born Amer
leans. while the remainder. to a man, have de.
clared their intention of becoming citizens. -
The San Francisco is the fastest cruiser we
have IN commission today. and it is fitting that
her boats, too, should be the fastest. Sine has
done well In her first visit to Atlantic waters.
