KEEP YOUR EYE ON THEM.

We are keeping list of those who
are the loudest in their praise of the
Democratic renegades who voted to
pass the repeal bill. and we expect to
live long enough to hear some of
them, (when charged as Democrats
for the evil resulting from that I'M
wise vote), say: Oh. why do you
charge the Democrats with it? The
Republicans passed it; they voted rs
for it while we only voted %. And
some of them will actually tell the
ignorant that it was impossible to
prevent its passage because the Re-
publicans had a majority in favor of
repeal. of course, this will be too
thin to tell man of reason but they
will try that racket on the ignorant.
1t will be like the two hunters. Two
fellows went out to shoot deer by
freight. They had not gone far
before one of them shined the eye
of fine buck and shot and killed
him. The other fellow came up and
SAID, eve have killed a fine deer"
The one that did the killing re-
marked: eve! We. | killed it,
They had not gone far before the
same one shined the eye of mule
that was out at pasture, and shot and
killed him, and, turning to his COM
rade, remarked, eve have killed
brother Jones' mule" His friend
who was not permitted to share in
the killing of the deer did not pro-
pose to shoulder any of the respon-
sihility of killing the mule, and he
remarked, eve. We! H, you
killed it." 1t is all right now. We
passed the bill, but by and by it will
be: Owe! H, the Republicans
passed it,

The November Arena closes the
eighth volume of this popular Re
view. which, by the conspicuous
ability Of its contributors. its un-
equaltd. fearless, and healthy re-
formative impulses, has become Il
power IN our land. The November
Issue contains, among other brilliant
papers, a noteworthy article written
by the late Richard 4. Proctor, in
which the eminent astronomer re
views the claims Of Bacon and Sha Ike
speare at length. This paper was
originally portion of correspond
ence between Mr.. Proctor and his
daughter. The acon-Shakespeare
case closes IN this issue. 1t con
talns verdicts from Henry Irving,
Governor W. +. Russell and others.
In tins notable verdict twenty Of the
most eminent writer's and critics in
America and England are for Shake
speare one votes for Bacon, and
four are undecided. Rabbi Solo
mon SCHNEIDER contributes "A very
thoughtful, though rather Socialis-
tic paper, entitled Thoughts III an
Orphan Asylum" l.. p. Powell's
contribution is striking interesting
Study of Thomas Paine" Louis
Frechetse, the poet-laureate of Can
ada, appears in an interesting his
toric story entitled LA Corriveau."
Among other papers of special in
terest discussed by eminent thinkers
are the following: "The Slave now
er and the Money Power" SIS
Liquor Selling "a SIM" Medical
Slavery Through Legislation
acknowledge the Preserver of Pur-
lty,o Gerald Massey: The Man and
the Poet"
The book reviews are also note
worthy feature of this number.
Those who would keep in touch with
live issues should include this Re-
view in their list for the ensuing
year. The announcements for 1894
are very interesting.

THE NET RESULT OF THE VOORHEES,
BILL.

L nder the above head the n. Y.
Times says: But the day of silver
as a standard money, as a measure
of valne, is over. The special sess-
ion of Congress, compelled thereto
by the people of the country, has
sounded lis knell. Nothing but that
dream of the international bimetal-
lists, an agreement among the great
commercial nations, will arrest the
progress or silver toward its destined
subsidiary place.
The ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS of the
Sherman act, repeated IN the Noor-
hees bill passed yesterday IN the
Senate, that it is the policy of this
Government to maintain the panty
of gold aud silver, will not long
suffice to maintain silver in its false
and impossible position as stand
ard of equal competence and au-
thority with gold. The immense
losses and indescribable suffering OF
the silver panic of the past summer
the complete failure of our two sill
yer acts to meet the delusive expec
tations that led to or permitted then
adoption, the course of other import
ant nations, the alarming loss OF
| Treasury gold, of which according
to Secretary Carisle's statement
$52, 900, 1000 has been paid out direct
| ly on demand for the redemption Of
Treasury notes, and the immense
productivity of the silver mines, un
der which the price of the metal ha'
been forced down to figure UMPIRE
cedentedly low, all conspire to drive
silver from its present place IN GU
currency system. The tendency
toward the gold standard. 1t is GU
manifest destiny to adopt it." Thi
shows how the hypocrits who pre-
tended to be bimetallists till the.
got the Sherman law repealed: ar
now saying that they have gotte1
the country to gold standard.

Well, we have the repeal; now let
US have the promised revival of bust

arrival of the benevolent man who is

We are also an2iously watching for

begin now to make trade brisk. Let
them stand not back. They are need
ed badly. We are also waiting to
hear of the arrival of investors who
have been promising to make the

pricked up our ears in vain. Those

date of the regular vuarterly meet

Capt. James Dowd, president, was
in the chair, and the meeting was a
largely attended one. There were more
alliances represented than at any pre-
vious meeting. Every section of the

For TIE CAUCASIAN.

IAkBORO, y. e., Oct 2JIh, -.
"Assuming that the silver episode
is closed, it should be remembered
that thirty-seven Democrats, embrac-
? ing every Southern Senator, We be
lieve, but one from Louisiana and
one from Texas, were for the COM
promise and that the compromise
fell through only because the Sena-
tors from. the silver States and the
Popuiists would not vote for it. As
the proposition did not command
their support, majority of Senators
could not be obtained for it: and
therefore it was abandoned.
This action Oh the part of the
Senators from the silver States and
by the Populists has thrown down
the bars and opened the way to I'M
conditional repeal. The repeal bill
will now doubtless be passed, and
that result must be attributed to the
course of those who could have de-
feated it and would Motive mean
the Senators from the silver States
and the Populist Senators. We
think it desirable that this record
should be known by the people, I'M
derstood ty them and remembered"
News Observer-Chronicle, October
Goth, 1898.
The News-Observer-C Chronicle in
the above editorial is endeaI Oring to
throw the responsibility for failure
to PASS the compromise silver bill on
the "Senators from the silver States,
and the Populists." 1t is preposter-
GUS for that paper to say that any
other party other than the Demo-
cratic is responsible to the Amer
lean people for the enactment of
legislation that would carry into
effect the pledges of the Chicago
platform. The people elected the
Democratic party upon the belief
that the pledges in the platform
would be carried out in good faith,
and if there were dozen parties
represented in the Senate, the Demo-
cratic party should be held to strict
accountability for all legislation that
is passed, or fails to pass, for the
reason that that party Is dominant.
In view of the fact that the emo
Gratis have a majority in both branch
cs of congress it is sheer nonsense to
allege that any other party should
bear any responsibility for inaction
on vital question.
Furthermore no compromise what
ever was considered or even mention
ed in the last campaign. The peo-
pie in this State were told that the
platform meant free silver and the
"cowardly makeshift' passed in
1890, was done to prevent the &C
compllshment of that desirable
measure.
The Senators from the silver
States and the Populists acted right
in not voting for compromise. The
Democrats have always denounced
the "crime of 1S73," and when the
opportunity is presented for them to
right it they dodge. Indeed, we
may inquire, 'where are they at -
The failure of the Democratic
party to carry out the solemn pledge
for the restoration of silver, is
"khown by the people, understood
by them,' and will be remembered.
The people are IN no frame of mind
to trust longer a party that, after
obtaining commission to enact GER
tain laws, cruelty turns its back on
its tried, true and trusted friends.
The Democratic party alone is re-
sponsible for the failure to pass the
silver bill. Some of its "gold-bugs'
joined the Republicans. A fine
spectacle indeed

Mark Twain's Latest---ROmance of an Es-
quimau Maiden.

A magazine is uselly satisfied with
one strong feature for the month.
The Cosmopolitan, howevr, presents
for November no less than five very
unusual ones. William Dean How
ellis gives the first of the letters of
the traveller, who has been visiting
this country, from Altruria. We
have read Mr.. Howells' impression
Of the Altrurian; but in this first let
ter we have the Altrurian's impress
sion of New York, with some com
ments upon our governments and
society, calculated to awaken the
most conservative minds The Soc
ond feature of The Cosmopolitan
is the portion of the magazine given
up to color work, no less than ten
superb color illustrations being pre-
sented for the first time in magazine
history, accompanying an article by
Mrs. Roger A. Pryor on Changes
in WOmen's Costumes" The third
feature is american Notes." by
Walter Besant, who was recently in
America and is doing the United
States for The Cosmopolitan la
Dickens. The fourth feature is an
article by General Badeau on 1.-The
Forms of Invitation Used by the
English Nobility" The article is
illustrated by the facsimile of cards
to the Queens drawing-room, to
dinner at the Princess of Wales, and
to many leading houses of England.
Finally, we have new and very
curious story by Mark Twain, called
1.-The Esquimau Maiden's Romance"
1t is in his happiest vein and is illus
trated by Dan Beard. The Novem-
