August SChuster Dead.

BARABoo, March August Schuster,
who was recently released from state
prison on account of his poor health,
and taken to his home in Ableman,
died last evening. On his deathbed
he said he was innocent. He was con-
yicted of an assault on Rosa Sack man
and sentenced to five years in prison.
She is still an invalid from the beating
she received. Schuster at that time
was working at a hotel in Watertown
and all the hotel people swore be had
not been absent. He and Miss Sack
man had been schoolmates and her
testimony alone convicted him.
1t is firmly believed by all here ac-
quainted with the facts connected with
the crime of which he was pronounced
guilty, that August Schuster has died
innocent of the grave charge for which
he was imprisoned. He has gone to
appear before higher tribunal where
many of the judgments of this world
will be reversed.

II was June %, 1899. that the national
democratic convention denounced 'sthe
republican legislation known as the
Sherman act Of 1890 as q cowardly
male-shift fraught with possibilities Of
danger in the future which should make
all Of Its supporters as well as its author
anxious for its speedy repeal" and the
next winter large majority OF the re-
publicans in congress voted for It's re-
peal, thus saying In effect to the demo
cracy: Very well, II you think SO, let
II be wiped out before your party comes
back into power. The democratic
party was not responsible for tho
original passage Of the act, but isre-
sponsible for Its retention. The de-
mand for Its speedy repeal was COM
Cured in by the republ ican party. The
truth is that the anti,sheriman act
plank Of the democratic platform was
o gigantic bluff, and when called the

II Is customary to charge that silver
has steadily declined in market value
ever since the Comstock mine with Its
bonanza was fairly opened, except that
there was . brief increase in value
right after the Sherman act went into
effect From this 1t Is argued that
there is an over supply Of silver. The
fact Is, on the contrary, that silver WINS
actually higher in October, 1884, than
II had been in October, 1873 This.
shows that knowledge that party
dominated in Its political economy by
British ideas had been given control Of
the government produced a depressing
effect upon thevalue of silver. BY the
time Harrison was elected silver had
declined about seventeen per cent, but
with his election the price began to 20
up. His defeat In 1893 had q worse eff
feet even than the election Of Cleveland
in 1884. These are stubborn facts for

The Democracy Needs 70 FIND Out
&C., Who're II Ii +" At
The New York Sun. the nll-wool-
yard-wide authority OF the simon.pure
Jacksonian democracy, has struck the
right idea. The Sun says: III the

1892 was a mistake; that protection is
not unconstitutional; that protection is
not robbery; that customs duties may
be imposed and collected for other.
purposes than revenue; that the expert
ment outlined in the conventions reso-
luton Is impracticable; then, the only
honorable way out OF. the difficulty Is
to have the democratic national COM
mittce call another convention of the
party, with full representative status
and authority, and to have the new
convention rescind the resolution of
1899. .
The national platform adopted by
the democratic party at Chicago calls
for the repeal Of the Mckinley bill and

Grover Cleveland ignores oil of these
party demands except the repeal of the

The leaders of the party are now ask

The loud-voiced champions OF tariff
reform can rise no higher now than to
