THAT man ought to be hanged. He
knows he is lying when he makes the
statement that he does, and covertly in
situated that honorable men have been
guilty OF dishonest and scoundreily
acts" These words with wrath from
Senator John Sherman were drawn out
by the charges brought against him
and Others by James II. Plat, President
Of the Denver Paper Mills Company OF
Denver, in = Communication to . news
paper. The charge is in connection
with, the passage by Congress OF the
law Of 1873 demonetizing silver, and
known as the demonstration act. Mr..
Plat in effect charged that Senator
Sherman, while acting as member OF
the conference committee on the bill.
did in conjunction with other members
Of the committee surreptitiously insert
. clause in one section Of the bill re.
pealing free coinage and Struggled 1t
through both Houses, and that no
member Of either House or even Pres
ident Grant, when he signed the bill.
had the f~aintest suspicion that such .
clause was contained in the bill. Mr..
Platt further intimated that advantage
was taken Of this secret clause by
members Of the conference committee
for speculative purposes. All honest.

CARLISLE IN 1878 and 1898.

Representative Carlisle, when Repre-
sentative in Congress OF February Fl,
1878, spoke as follows in favor Of the
free coinage Of silver:
81 know that the worlds stock Of
precious metals is none too large, and
see no reason to apprehend that 1t will
ever become 30. Mankind will be fortu-
nate, indeed, II the annual production Of
gold and silver coin shall keep pace with
the annual increase Of population. COM
MERGE and industry. According to my
view of the subject, the conspiracy
which seems TO have been formed here and
10 Europe to destroy by legislation and
otherwise from three-sevenths 10 one
half Of the metallic money Of the world
is the most gigantic crime Of this or any
other age. The contamination Of such
. scheme would ultimately entail more
misery upon the human race than all
the wars, pestilence and famine that
ever occurred In the history Of the
world. The absolute and instantaneous
destruction Of half the entire movable
property Of the world, including ships,
houses, railroads and all other appli-
sncss for carrying on commerce, while
II would be felt more sensibly ct the
moment. would not produce anything
like the prolonged distress and disorgan-
ization, Of society that must inevitably
result from the permanent annihilation
Of one-half Of the metallic money in
the world"
How does Carlisle compare with him
self in 1878 and 1887 Cleveland has
now two men that were formerly for
free coinage in his Cabinet, where their
voices are stifled and all their future
political hopes are blasted and dead. If
they have spoken . word Of truth in
their past lives.-virginia Chronicle.

TOO MUCH TALK.

Secretary Carlisle is reported as saying
that there has been too much talk con-
corning financial affairs. In fact he at
tributes such financial difficulties as have
oyertaken us to "too much talk" Mr..
Carlisle is not the only man in high off,
cial position to indulge in the delusion
that the people have no right to pass an
opinion as to policies to be adopted.
When Mr.. Carlisle was in Congress he
was known as . free coinage man. He
seems lately to have changed his views.
He is now aiding President Cleveland to
establish the single gold standard. But
he considers ii impertinent for the peo-
pie whose interests are at stake to ex-
press an opinion as to the wisdom OF the
change Of policy. His idea that there is
too much talk ia natural under the cir
c~umstances. It would be easier to effect
the change the administration desires ii
people would not talk. There was q
time when the value Of public silence
was SO highly appreciated that no one
was permitted to speak or write excep.
in accord with the ruling power. In
proportion as government approaches
a despotism, in practice if mott in theory,
there is impotence Of public talk. But
this excess of talk Of which Mr.. Carlisle
is in fact an expression Of
opinion. II this public opinion is
to the administration Of which
Mr.. Carlisle is . part, so much the worse

We hope the silver men will be

think they will NOT be permitted 70
debate much. We think the vote on the
sherman law will be regulated in Dem
ocratic caucus, but IL is possible
that they may ~butsOnhols one after
another Of the Congressman and ask
them il they think IL is the Sherman
law that makes congestion in this
country. II they say yes, ask them
what is the matter in Australia. where
there is no Sherman law. Ask them
what is the matter in the agricultural
regions Of England, where there is no
sherman law. Ask them what Is the
matter among the agricultural and FAC
tory men Of Europe. where there is no
sherman law. Ask them what Is the
matter..in Egypt, where the poor Egypt
ian has TO give two bales Of cotton 10
paying the interest on the debt where
fifteen years ago he had only to give
one. What the matter is IN INDIA!
There is no Sherman law there, and
when the answer comes back that
we cannot set up . financial policy Of
our own, that we must be in accord
with the Old World and especially
with England, let the answer be;
Look 1t Ireland / See what .

strange that Americans, knowing all
the past, can be so obsequious to that

Thrilling Scenes at the
Verdict Of Not Guilty.
ONLY ONE BALLOT TAKEN.
The Defendant Bore up Bravely Under
the Trying Ordeal.

NEW BEDFORD, Mass, June 2i.-Lizzie
Borden Is free woman. Along has swept
the current of the great trial to acquittal.
Scarcely an hour was required for the IL
men, good and true" to return the ver-
dict Of not guilty.
The ending was worthy Of the greatest
murder tribunal of the century.
So sudden decision was entirely unex-
pected, and many who were of their guard d
and had temporarily left the court house
lost 1t altogether.
Judge Dewey uttered the last words OF
his charge as the big clock indicated S:12
o'clock, and In 10 minutes more the jury
was given notice to retire.
The trusty 10 filed out at 3:25 o'clock,
and everybody settled down for long
wait that might reach through the watches
OF the night.
An hour of insufferable heat passed y
and the hands ON the dial had begun a
second revolution when, sudd emily, the 'e
was little stir, as II a misplaced breeze
had strayed into the courtroom. Several
people who had been in the lower rooms
bobbed upstairs In an unconcerned sort of
way and word was passed that the jury
had struck snag and was about to ask
the court for instructions.
In minute more the three judges were
In their seats, and then followed the jury
with fixed look upon their faces. Every
