WHEN it was sent out from Washing
ton that the administration had agreed
to compromise on the Sherman silver
bill repeal, extending the time tor 1t to
90 into effect one year instead OF on its
passage, it surprised everybody who had
learned to believe that Grover Cleye
land, like Davy Crockett, always made
sure he was right before going ahead.
Ittsrns out like weshould have know n all
along, that the compromise was the in.
vention of the wishy-washy senators
headed by German, who steered the
thing through, by making, or at least
leaving the impression, that the presi-
deat had agreed to the compromise.
Many senators under the misapprehen-
sioa signed the paper, who upon being
apptised of the real state OF affairs, re-
pudiste their act and will now vote for a
rule to force vote on the question,
on which final action, it is said, will be
taken to-day or tomorrow. 1t is almost
certain that the repeal will be carried
and the miserable makeshift" be shelly
ed, no longer to retard commercial prog
ress or vex the democratic party, which
is pledged to give the people a sound
and stable currency. When this is ac-
complished it will be due entirely to the
great man in the White House, who has
the courage to stand by his convictions
and the backbone to insist ON their full
fillment. The democratic party seems
to need such Moses to lead it out OF
the Wilderness and lift it from the
slosgh Of despond into which it is by
incompetent management drifting, and
making it unworthy OF popular conf.
denee. The people have dscreed that
the repeal bill must be passed and their
wish must be the law.
