Very PuzzIing.

The st. Louis Republic wants the
advocates of the gold standard to
explain the entire parity between
silver certificates, which are not re-
deemable in gold, and other kinds
ofcurrency. These certificates have
brought a premium in the market,
although they call for nothing ex-
cept silver dollars.
Another puzzle is the calm salts
faction of Mexico under single
silver standard. The gold sharks
seem to believe that any country
with the free coinage of silver is on
the road to ruin. Yet Mexico gets
along very comfortably with her 3777
grain silver dollar and has not yet
had bank failure.
The gold advocates should rise to
explain. Possibly they are at the
wrong end of the business
The complacent Mexican bankers
think so and regard us as very
short-sighted people.

VIII BE Strange IL Some of the Democratic
oratory Does Not Prove Too Much For
the Aggressive Leaders of the opposi-
tion Party to Listen to without Reply

WASHINGTON, Aug. 15.-Inquiry OF
leaders on the Republican side of the
house ELECTS the statement that they ex.
qect to take little or no part in the de-
hate now in progress.
Said one of them: "The Democrats
have undertaken to control and direct
the consideration of the question, and
refused to give the Republicans q
chance to amend the order regulating
the debate. We did not believe that
free silver or no silver, which are
the only alternatives possible under
the Bland order, were the only
two possible solutions of the sit
uation, and would have been glad
of an opportunity to have amend.
ed the order so as to secure vote on a
proposition which we believe would &c
further than any other to meet and re
lieve the necessities of the financial sit
nation. But this having been denied
us. we do not feel that the Republicans
have anything to argue. and my belief
is that none of the members on this side
will take formal part in the debate"
1t may be doubted, however, whether
this plan of reticence and reserve will
be carried out 1t is almost a certainty
that as the debate progresses a stage
will be reached where the opportunity
to score a political point will prove if
resistible to such aggressive leaders as
Reed, Burrows, Cannon, Hepburn and
Henderson.
There is some of the best speakers in
the Democratic ranks still to be heard

The NEGRO PROBLEM.
Editor Graves of Atlanta Has solu

Editor Graves of Atlanta Has a Solution
of 1t.
CHAUTAUoUA, n. Y, Aug. 15.-John
Temple Graves. the successor to Henry
w. Grady as leading editorial contrib
utor to the Atlanta Constitution, lee
tured here on 1.-The New Uncle Toms
Cabin" which was discussion of the
negro problem. His lecture has pro
duced more excitement, sensation and
discussion than any delivered here in
years.
He proposed theory for its solution
which was briefly: Let the government
set aside, out of the vast public do
mains, large territory for sovereign
state, to be differed and controlled ex.
clusively by the negroes, and no white
to have the right to vote therein; the
government to maintain troops to. pre-
serve order. The only price the negro
need pay for this privilege would be his
right to vote i'll any other state.
MIR. Graves pronounced the present
plan a failure. and the ballot in the
hands of the negro, under present con-
ditiOns, mockery.
I'VE owe it to his lcnalty in war, and
his docility in peace to protect him
thus. But this is problem of safety;
of domestic tranquility, of national
unity: the greatest problem facing the
people of this trancendent age The
edict has gone forth that this is white
mans government. and it will remain
so forever, for God Almighty has
stamped his seal and sign of sovereign-
ty upon the Anglo-Saxon tribe"

The American Speeulator.

There is not more utterly reck-

lean speculator.
lie is in the business world what
the anarchist is in the political
world.
He is ready to starve millions OF
his countrymen if he can corner a
food crop and fill his pockets. But,
if he regards the death of his VIC
tins with Indifference he also holds
his own life in his hand.
The other day an old Spectator
in Chicago had to raise $50 or lose
his seat in the exchange. Failing
to get the money, he blew out his
brains. Another Chicago specula-
tor, Chas. NJ. Townley, lost his for
tune by the slump in wheat and
pork. He forged his wife's name
TO checks and lost her money. He
was forgiven and his wife secured a
good position for him. 1t was no
use-none at all. When a gamb-
ling SPECTATOR sees that he must
quit business under a cloud and
penniless, he never reforms. He
rushes out of his difficulties by the
suicide route. So Townley turned
his back on his forgiving wife and
his new chance in life, turned on
the gas, and went to sleep to wake
no more.
The American professional specu-
lator is dangerous public enemy.
Success throws a glamour around
these wreckers, but it does not last.
The honest toiler whose work and
economy barely make both ends
meet is worth thousand times
more to his family, his friends and
his country than one of these stock
exchange sharks.-C Constitution.

The Democrats in Congress as
sembled need no message from
President Cleveland pointing out
the course that they should
follow. The right policy was given
them at the National Democratic
Convention in Chicago one year ago.
Read it's platform on the financial
question:
We denounce the Republican leg
islation known as the Sherman act
of 1890 as eowardIy mnkeshifl,
fraught with possibilities of danger
in the future, which should make
all of its supporters as we'll as its
author anxious for its speedy repeal.
We hold to the use of both gold and
silver as the standard money of the
country, and to the coinage of both
gold and silver without discriminat-
ing against either metal or charge
for mintage, but the dollar unit of
coinage of both metals must be of
equal intrinsic and exchangeable
value, or be adjusted through inter
national agreement, or by such safe
guards of Legislation as shall insure
the maintenance of the parity of the
two metals, and the equal power of
every dollar at all times in the
markets, and in payment of debt;
and we demand that all paper cur
rency shall be kept at par with and
redeemable in such coin. We insist
upon this policy as especially neces-
sary for the protection of the farm.

Congress is called to deal with the
financial laws. The house of repre-
sentatives is strongly Democratic.
The senate is Democratic on mar
row margin. Therefore legislation
may with confidence be expected to
follow the Democratic doctrines as
we find in the Democratic platform.
In that platform the Sherman law
was specifically denounced as a
cowardly makeshift, drought with
possibilities of danger in the future,
which should make all of its sup
porters, as we'll as its author, anx-
ious for its speedy repeal"
The author, as well as many of
those who voted for the measure,
has been forced to acknowledge that
the Democratic Characterization of
the bill was just Therefore it
would seem that no reasonable ex-
cuse could be urged against an i'm
mediate repeal of bill that is so
unanimously condemned.
