Gov. Waite's silver Project.

The dispatches again remind us that
q scheme is actully under way with in
creasing signs for success, whereby
Colorado, upon her own responsibility
will issue a silver coin, the product of
her own mines. The legality of the
question is not a new one, and eminent
jurists have passed upon the same,
only TO ratifv its utter Feasibility. 1t
is intended to convene the Legislature
of the State, listen to the reports that
will be offered relative to negotiations
with the Mexican minis for coming q
silver piece, distinctly not an imitation
of the United States lin God We
Trust dollar. This coin the State Of
Colorado will agree to receive for all
taxes and excuses due the State on a
par with gold. United States silver. or
bank notes. This will be an absolute
where within the borders of the State,
and it requires no stretch of hope to
say that other States adjoining would
soon catch the idea and treat with
western chivalry the banker or loan
agent who attempts their depreciation.
Thus would be opened an avenue for
employment of labor, reopening of the
mines, and growing independence Of
Wall Street and their accursed blood
sucking system.
1t is natural that boards of trade,
chambers of commerce and other like
organizations of bandits, that thrives
not upon its own productions, but up
on the productions of the masses, will
pass resolutions condemning this pro-
ject. But with all their opposition it
is the happy thought AMI redeeming
feature of the whole silver problem in
its present FRUSTRATED condition. and it
now stands the people of Kansas,
Texas. Nebraska, Wyoming, Idaho,
Nevada, and other western States to
send up such a demand upon Gov.
Waite, along with those of his own
State, that futher delay may not be
possible. Let the banks oppose if
they will. That is their business to
head off and suppress any form of
medium that does not pay them tribute
in advance for privilege of circulating.
Write the Governor letter and second
his proposition. 1t is the opportun-
ity of the ages, and one we cannot
afford to let pass.

The HOLIDAY Trade.

Hy there! Mr. business man. isn't
this lovely holiday season. and did
you ever have such bloomin' trade,
Ell? Makes you wish they'd a passed
that silver bill five years, doesn't it ?
How the people do buy furs, and
books, and trinkets. and everything !!
Whole families fitted out with shoes,
rubbers, school suits and s!eds for the
little ones. Who'd thought just the
passage of little innocent bill like
that would have sent up the price of
wheat SO lively, thus making the
farmers buy SO heavily! Yes, our bust
ness men are really objects for envy
with their holiday trade this year.

Evolution of Reform,

Industrial organizations that de-
pend solely upon strikes and boycotts
to better the conditions of their mem
bers and have opposed political action,
are either going to pieces of their own
weight or have changed their tactics
and have followed their enemy into the
field of politics. In Italy and France
the working classes have within the
past few weeks forged to the front so
rapidly with their socialistic ideas of
Government as to compel the lissolu
ton of the Cabinets of the Govern
ments, and which apparently cannot
be reorganized without recognizing
the cry of distress from the people and
permitting them to have a voice in the
reorganization of the executive depart
ments Of the Government. In Ger
many Kaiser Wilhelm finds himself in
pretty much the same fix as his neigh
bors, and in Bulgaria, where certain
classes of people have been denied the
rights Of the ballot, the Government
has been compelled to grant them that
right.
In this country everything points to
an even more radical change than the
fall of the monarchies of Europe.
Meetings of the trade unionists to con-
slider the question of Independent polit-
ical action are of daily occurrence and
are we'll attended, and in almos. every
instance the results are favorable to
entering upon a final struggle, Il strike
at the ballot boz.
That the working classes have at
last come to the conclusion that they
can change their condition for the bet
ter by Legislative action, no one will
deny who has watched the cause Of
events for the past few weeks in this
country and in Europe. Farmers, the
city workers Will soon be with you in
the struggle for Industrial emancipa

He said congress had passed law pro-

BY the Associated Press.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 13.--In the senate
today, Sherman, from the committee on
foreign relations, reported back bis bill
to extend to the North Pacific ocean the
provisions of the statutes for the protec-
tion OF seals and other fnr-bearing ami
mails. The bill passed.
Sherman, in making the request, ex-
planned that in view OF any judgment
which may be made by the tribunal OF
arbitration next summer in regard to
the seal fisheries, it will be necessary
to authorize the president to extend the
present law, which only applies to the
Bering sea, to the North Pacific ocean.
Morrill, OF Vermont moved that the
Joint resolution introduced by McPher-
son to suspend the purchase of silver
bullion be referred to the committee on
finance.
Stewart OF Nevada opposed the mo-
ton on the ground that several senators
desired to reply to McPherson's speech,
and inquired whether the motion was
open to debate. The vice president said
it was. Stewart said he would like to
make a few remarks upon the subject.
Teller asked Morrill, to withdraw bis
motion in the interest of fair discussion.
Morrill, said he made the motion at
tbs request OF MCPHERSON, and had no
interest in the matter personally.
After the McGarrahan bill was taken
up, and Mills delivered a speech against
it, it went over till Monday, and the
anti-option bill was taken up, the pend
ing question being the amendment Of
ferred by White of Louisiana, to strike
out the provision of section 2, "that
contract or agreement shall not be
made, settled for by delivery or settle
ment OF difference, or by any other mode
of performance or settlement, in or up
on any board of trade" etc. The amend
ment was rejected: Yeas, 15; nays, 80.
So the proviso was retained in the bill.
Villas of Wisconsin moved to end the
second section by adding the words
''and does not, in good faith, intend to
purchase and deliver the articles con-
tracted to be sold and delivered accord
ing to the terms and requirements Of
such contract" He said the purpose
OF his amendment was to distinguish
legitimate transactions from gambling
operations.
Washourn said he was satisfied that
the effect Of the amendment would be
disastrous TO the bill, absolutely de-
stroying its purpose.
White supported the amendment,
and George OF Mississippi opposed it.
Palmer of Illinois spoke against the
bill generally.
Villas spoke in explanation and sup
port of his amendment, and denied that
it would defeat the object of the bill.
After further discussion, the amend
ment went over without action.
Wilson OF Iowa offered a resolution,
which vas agreed to, calling on the sec-
retary of the treasury for copy Of the
opinion of the law officer of his depart
ment, under which he was disbursing
100000 souvenir coins in aid of the
Columbian exposition, conditioned on
Sunday closing; also copy of the regu-
lations as to the issue and delivery of
the coins.
Adjourned till Monday.

The Worlds Fair Committee Hears Ar

WASHINGTON, Jan. 13-The worlds
fair Sunday opening hearings were con-
tinued today before the worlds fair
committee.
Rev. DR.. Dudley, representing the
cities OF Scranton aud Wilkesbarre, pre-
sented petiti) 65 feet in length againat
Sunday opening He read letter from
Governor Pattison expressing hearty
approval OF Sunday closing, and said the
worlds fair commission of the state of
Pennsy ylvania voted the came.
Thomas Morgan, chairman OF a spe-
cial committee of the Chicago Trade and
Labor assembly, appointed to aid the
caHse of Sunday opening, said they had
only four weeks in which to work and
received responses from 375 labor Or
ganizatione, representing almost every
city in the United States, all favorable
to Sunday opening. In addition be
represented the great American Turner
bund, which had petitioned 1856 con-
gressmen through their organizations
and also the German Saloonkeepers'
association OF Chicago Ia statement
which Rev Joseph Cook and other Sun
day clos ere greeted with jubilant cries
OF "Hear, hesrl")
Morgan denied emphatically that the
clergy had any authority for the state
ment that the workingmen were against
Sunday opening.
Rev. DIR Thomas OF Chicago argued
that the matter of going to the worlds
fair on Sunday should be left to each
PERSONS conscience. Sunday opening
was not desecration of the Sabbath, as
assumed by the other side. Business
aud pleasure were inseparable from any
great movement or enterprise, but the
fair was not business project or vast
show; the fair was a school and church
for the exhibition Of nature, mans
progress. and appealed to the intellect
ual and moral lifs Of the nation.

of the marvellous cure of Miss B.,
the high contralto singer, who has
long suffered from severe throat
or bronchial affection, superinduced
by Catarrh in the Head, and who
has been perfectly cured by the
use of DIR. Sage's Catarrh Remedy,
coupled with the use of DR.. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. For
all bronchial, throat and lung affec-
tions, and lingering coughs, the "Dis-
