Mendonca, of Brazil, has received no
cable advices contirmatory or otherwise

COMFORTING THOUGHT.

1t is source of intense comfort to
the silver men 20 know that the con-
verts rapidly being enrolled in free
coinage ranks are won over by the
sheer force Of convincing arguments,
and not by threats, or offers of coin.
One honest convert, who goes over to
the silver side because of a realization
of the truth and soundness of the
theories of the double standardists,
is of infinitely more value to the
cause than a dozen who have been
pulled into line by intimidation, or
absolutely purchased.
This is not the class of men de-
sired by the friends of the white
metal; they want the silver ranks
filled up by men who think for them>
selves, who are honest and sincere
in their convictions, and brave enough
to stand by them at all times and in
all places.
Long continued education in the
proper direction has brought re
cruits into the silver lines, who hav e
come to the conclusion that the
country needs vastly larger circul-
ating medium; voters who viii have
intelligence enough to know for whom
to cast their votes at the next Presi-
Dental election, and it is from these
that the silver men can rightly eX-
pect assistance in the supreme NOM
ent. The beneficial results of the
silver mems well directed efforts are
being felt East and West, and it is
gratifying for them to know that bill
yer argument is stronger than gold
coin.
All the the silver men ask is to be
attentively and intelligently listened
