The True Friends of silver.

On the amendment to coin silver at
the ratio of 16 to l, 1O2 Democrats,
IL Republicans, and II Populists
voted in the affirmative, and 112 Dem
ocrats and 113 Republicans in the
negative. Forty-four per cent of the
Democrats, 81 per cent of the Repub-
icans and 100 per cent of the Popu-
lists voted for free coinage.
AS the Reno Journal remarks, fur
ther comment is superfous. 1t takes
more than two Democrats and more
ten Republicans to count as much as
one Populist in voting for free coinage
In the House of Representatives.
People who favor free coinage should
remember this at the next election.

Secretary Carlisle said: Il have never
at any time agreed to any compro-
mise or told anyone that a compro-
mise of any kind would be satisfactory
to me. The first l knew of this com
promise was when Blackburn tele
phoned me Saturday that he and a
committee would call on me in regard
to a compromise. They came, but l
refused to consider a compromise, and
after a general talk they went away.
The first that | knew that there were
signatures to an agreement for a
compromise was when Villas told me
about it. | went at once to the pres
ident and told him about it. never
in my life gave Gray or any other man
to understand that ! or the president
had shifted from the original stand in
favor OF the immediate, unconditional
repeal of the Sherman law. Our pO-
si:ion was that the repeal position
was the strongest, and backed up 10y
the people. It had passed the house
by 100 majority and there was no
reason on earth for shifting of that
position. The report has been circu-
lated that ! told Gray the compromise
OF Saturday was satisfactory to me.
He has written me. pointing to
letter on his table, and there Is his
letter. in which he states that he did
not tell any one that had made the
statement to him that the compro-
mise was satisfactory TO me.

WASHINGTON. Oct 26.-Yezt erday
in the senate the consideration Of the
bin 10 repeal the purchasing clause of
the Sherman act was taken up. and
Mr. Stewart Of Nevada, who was en-
titled to the floor. yielded to MIR. Pugh
pemoerar OF Alabama. who proceed
ed to address the senate against the
bill. Referring to the recent com
promise, Mr.. Pugh said the Demo
cratic senator's united in a spirit of
compromise and concession and
selected an equal number of senators
from those friendly to unconditional
repeal and those opposed. and with
the full knowledge of Mr. Cleveland
and Mr.. Carlisle that such an effort
was being made to bring the Demo
cratic senators together upon some
common ground that could be enacted
into a law. They accomplished that
laudable undertaking so far as to agree
upon Il compromise that secured the
signatures Of every Democratic SEN
ator but six. The fact was not con
sidered doubtful that forty-three
Democratic senators would have sane
toned the compromise had not the
president interposed an objection and
demanded unconditional repeal at all
haz ards. Mr.. Pugh was now salts
fed that all efforts at compromise
failed solely ON account Of the presi-
dent and the secretary Of the treas
ury. He was satisfied he could not
get sufficient number of senators to
join him in his filibustering practices
and he was forced to record his vote
against this diabolical measure and
appeal to the people to organize for
the great battle Of the future. Mr.
Pugl said he was willing, if he had
sut1icint support, to use any
and all means to defeat the
bill. He was now TO be
called a tlibuster in defeating "a con
Spiracy equal in the ruinous conse-
quenoe OF its success to war. pestilence
and famine. He would rather be
called a flibuster by conspirators and
ickspittles of good things than trail
tor or a faithless representative by
the state and people who honored him
with their trust and confidence. As
for himself he would do his duty, as
far as he understood it. and leave the
consequences to God and his country.
Mr.. Stewart then resumed his speech.
He spoke OF the gold combination as
having agents in tie capitol to dictate
Legislation and as having elected
president determined 10 carry out
their policy The president was now
in the saddle and congress was help
less. Voting will begin tomorrow.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 27.-The pro-
gramme OF the repeal faction in the
senate is to get to voting some time to-
day on the amendments to the bill.
finish the work on the amendments
tomorrow and vote upon the bill
itself Monday This schedule is of
course subject to change. When ar
ranged it was supposed that senator
Stewart would have concluded his
speech last night That he did not
do. and if he should wish to proceed
it is possible that it will become nee
essary to change the plans 50 as to
defer a vote upon the amendments
until tomorrow. Mr.. Jones will re-
quire only short time to conclude,
and Mr.. Allen Will not speak at great
length. Mr. Wolcott will make if
teen minute speech. and Mr. German
may also make a brief statement.
There may possibly be a few other
short speeches before the close of the
debate. Mr. Faulkner, after again
canvassing the senate yesterday eve
mig. thought it would be possible, if
the speakers did not extend their re
marks for too great length of time,
to begin voting by or o'clock to-
dav.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 27.-There was
little hutter among members of the
house when the report was circulated
that in the income tax scheme there
would be included provision to tax
mortgages. Western men assert that
taxing mortgages would mean that
the person borrowing money would be
obliged to pay an increased amount OF
interest to meet the amount of the
tax. and the men lending the money
would not be injured. Inquiry among
members of the ways and means com

impression got aboard through the

PHILADELPHIA, Pa. Oct 1.-The
action of the County Medical society
in asking the board of health to iso-
late consumptives has increased their
fears OccasiOned by startling head
lines in local paper by the resolution
of the medical congress in Washington
and by the state legislature OF Michi-
gan all declaring the deadly disease
infectious. The deaths from con-
sumption have decreased everywhere
during the past year, and Dr. Fleck,
with few others, ascribes this to his
isolation theory. Medical experts in
vestigating deeper, however. say it is
due to the Amick cure, free test pack
ages of which are distributed broad
cast to all consumptives through ply
sicians. One authority says, the
doctors talking isolation could better
devote their attention to the anthem
tic cures by the Cincinneti treatment
reported daily in the medical and sec
ular press.
MINNEAPOLIS, Oct. l4.-Recent edi-
tOrials in the local press on the Amick
cure for consumption have excited
ultra-conservative doctors. The Times
SAYS; 1T seems reasonably certain
it will greatly assist the fight against
the enemy of human life, for thirty or
moe local physicians say the medi.
cine accomplished more than the dis
coyerer claimed. 50 The Journals
editorial after saying lit is one of the
most valuable and wonderful discov-
cries ever hoped for in medical sci
ence, cOngratulates humanity that the
formulaef ; not given to every Tom,
Dick or Harry to monkey with and is
preserved from the tampering of fool
empiricists. The doctors say the
editorials are direct blows against the
medical code Of ethics.
