Senator Faulkner is of the opin
ion that this week will see a COM
promise on the repeal bill. The
compromise will be substantially on
the amendment offered by Senator
Faulkner, that is to limit the amount
of silver to be coined to $500, OOO, 900.
While this is not exactly what the
Democratic party is pledged to or
what the silver men desire, yet it is
better than the repeal of the pur-
chasing clause of the Sherman law,
and will go good ways in settling
the present monetary disturbances

Hon. Jas. Capehart for Governor.

A correspondent at Charleston
writing to the Parkersburg iSenti-
mel says:
So enamored is Judge Ferguson
of Congressman Capehart's position
on the silver question, he declares,
with vigorous emphasis, that Cape
hart, and nobody but Capehart, is
his candidate for Governor in SO.
He doesn't talk on the subject; he
explodes in pyrotechnics. Judge
Ferguson's private opinion implied,
if not publicly expressed, is in effect,
that the democratic platform of '92
is tue bandiwork of political god
heads, and being the less human
and the more divine, it cannot err
either in part or in entirety. That
platform as he views it, declares
unequivocally for the immediate
and unconditional repeal of that
cowardly makeshift, the Sherman
law, mot of the purchasing clause,
and Mr.. Capehart standing in his
"This-rock shall -fy-from its firm
base as-soon- attitude by what
he conceives and defines as the par
ty principles, is a splendid picture
that just fills the Judges eye, and
the outcome of which is an incipi-
emit boom up in this end of the
country for Mason county's repre-
sentative for Governor.
