To the delegation of Baltimore bust
ness men that called upon him to urge
the speedy and unconditional repeal of
the Sherman Silver Purchase act, Sena-
tor German is reported as saying that
under the rules which had obtained in
the Senate for 100 years, nothing in ad-
dition to what was being done was pos.
sible to bring the contest to a close.
Referring to the obstructive method of
Senators from the silver mining states,
Mr.. German said those gentlemen were
less blamable than Senators on the
Democratic side who were giving them
support and encouragement He would
not undertake to name a time when a
vote would be reached, but was hopeful
that the end would come before many
days were added to the session, and that
1t would be favorable to the pending
bill. This seems to he straining the
question of Senatorial courtesy to q
point that renders necessarya change in
the rules, even If they have existed for a
hundred years. If they are to continue
in force, and the minority is to be per-
mitted to talk against time for the mere
purposes of obstruction, there never will
be any vote taken as long as few OBJ
structionists remain. The capacity of
many men for speeches of extraordinary
duration is well known, and unless the
obstructing Senators give in, or are COM
PEELED to surrender, the end may not
come for years. What the people de-
mand is speedy vote upon the main
question, and even Senatorial courtesy
should give way to this imperative
order.

Soft felt hats have very wide brims that
wave up and down all around. These
are trimmed in picturesque and some
what irresponsible manner with rich
plumes, and bows Of ribbon against the
hair. Many street bonnets look from
the front just like two little bows, one
at each side of the front, and each
mounted by a tiny Mercury wing. Two
cornered continental hats have the
corners very short, the brim of the hat
being narrow. At each side of the
point in front horse.hair brush rises.
Each corner has rosette, and there is
no more TO it but the price. A stylish
broad brim two cornered hat is of stone
gray felt, a black velvet bow is against
the hair in front, and Prince of Wales
feather waves to east and west, from the
front. Around the crown bows of black
velvet are set. The plumes being held
by one.
The most appropriate material for this
dress is checked yellow, red and black
nuns.veiling, through which white
streaks run. The front part of the waist
is made blouse fashion of red surah,
which is fastened at the waist by soft
girdle. The sleeves, which are puffed
as lar as the elbows, are of the checked
material and are tight.fitting from elbow
to wrist The Bolero with long ends in
front is now very fashionable and
threatens to supersede the short kind,
1t is pointed behind and tight-fitting. 1t
is not lined and is made out of four
rows OF broad velvet ribbon and three
rows of lace insertion about an inch
wide. The outline of the figure must
be first traced with the velvet ribbon,
after which the lace is put on. The
loose collar, which should first be cut
out on paper should be covered with
lace, three and half inches wide which
is gradually sloped until it is only about
two inches wide in front. The under
part of the standing collar is of plain
velvet. The trimming of the skirt for
this costume is three bands of velvet
with Insertion between each being about
three and half inches wide.

Senator Blackburn of Kentucky is
opposed to the repeal of the silver pur-
chase clause of the Sherman law, but he is
in favor of promptly taking vote upon
the issue. This is the course Of manly
opponent, whose position will command
respect even when his opinions are com
batted. Senator Blackburn is a hard
fighter, but a thoroughly honorable one
at all times.

1t EVERY EyENINel went further. how.
ever, and said that only the free silver side
Of the question had been presented by I'M
DeldDarcan. We plead guilty to the charge
Of only publishing the silver side Of tbe
question for the potential reason that
there is no other side to the question:
Delawdredn.
This is simply declaration of
ignorance. There is no use wasting
time in arguing with conceited, self,
opinionated paper, which complacently
assumes the sublime wisdom to assert
that it is right and everybody else

No compromise, saysthe Philadelphia
Ledger, referring to the prospective
struggle in the Senate over the silver
issue. If the majority are as earnest,
as determined for the repeal of the
Sherman law as the minority are against
its repeal, the Sherman law will be re.
pealed before the end of the present
week. If, however, as II has been sug-
gested, there are many of the majority
who, while protesting anxiety for the
success of the Repeating bill, are will.
ing that it shall be defeated, It is likely
to be defeated; but, unless the temper
of the people should suddenly suffer q
radical change, it will be likely to go
hard with every Senator who either di-
rectly. through indirection or indiffer-
ence to the country's demand for relief
from the intolerable silver burden assists
to render such relief impossible. The
demand which the country makes upon
the Senate is for the unconditional re-
peal of the Sherman law and the main
tenance of the principle Of the right of
the majority to rule, There should be
no thought of compromise and no an
ticipation of defeat.

The revolt against the nomination Of
Judge Maynard for the court of appeals,
by the New York Democratic State Con
vention, at the dictation OF Richard
Croker, is meeting with determined OPP
position. 1t is doubtful il the nomina-
ton will be sustained by any of the
New York city papers, except the Sun
and Daily America, Croker's personal
organ. The World repudiatos Maynard
and the 7imss, while heartily endorsing
the rest of the ticket, urges the defeat
of Maynard as a duty good Democrats
owe to themselves and to the party. 1t
says: -s-
The support of Meyer and the rejection
OF Maynard Is a duty that self-respecling
democrats will perform with ease and
satisfaction. The men responsible for
Maynards nomination seem 10 have for
gotten that the ballot law of this state
grants TO every voter the valuable priyi-
lego, while preparing his ballots, of being
"alone with his God and his lead pencil. !"
Every candidate on the Democratic ticket
is worthy of the support Of all Democrats
save only Maynard. Mr.. Rosendale's re-.
nomination Is specially commendable. He
has proved himself to be an excellent State
officer. Mr.. Campbell and MIR. Schenck
are experienced in the places to which they
will be reelected, and Mr.. Duffy is COM
mended as man of substance and stand
ing. To elect all these candidates and to
bury Maynard under u majority large
enough to extinguish mis- and his sponsors
desire for vindication would be noble
achievement for the New York Democracy
this fall.
