There is one feature of this adj
fhinistratiOll at Washington that
Is especially worthy of commenla-
ton and that is it's practical econ
omy. President Cleveland has i'm.
pressed upon the willing members;
OF his cabinet the desirability of
tle curtailmemt of expenses. The
work of dropping from the pay
rolls names of those holding sine
cures and an Improvement in the
SLOW way Of doing things has al.
ready begun. OF course the great
bulk of government expenses is in
cured by congress, but what the
administration can do to save in
the execution of the laws will be
done. Two billion dollar con gress.
eS in succession are enough to ex.
cite a spirit of economy.

VIII Accept the Result,

The New York Evening Post, a
gold-bug organ, in commenting upon
the financial situation, says: IF the
American people has really gone
crazy about silver, it is very sadi but
business can adapt itself even to that
situation, once it is clearly ascer-
tanned" 1t is consollng to know from
this inspired source, that irretrieva-
BILE misfortune is not to follow the
passage of free coinage laws that
RUIN is not to stare the country IN the
face, and that gaunt famine and a
hundred and one other ills are not to
stalk over the length and breadth of
the republic.
We do not fancy the coarseness of
our contemporaries expressions in
connection wit the sentiment which
just now is voiced in every home
throughout the west and south, but
considering the source, we overlook
the language and express gratifca-
ton that the Post should so soon re-
concile itself to the inevitable action
of the next congress.
That the majority Of the members
of the senate and house of represent
atives is in faver of remedial leglsla-
ton, having for its purpose the re-
Mobilization of the white metal, we
cannot for moment doubt. Gold
bug agents have polled both bodies,
and the result is not discouraging to
the advocates of bimetalllsm. 1t is
true there is some uncertainty with
regard to the position of some of the
members, but we fancy this arises
more from a desire not to be too COM
municative in the face OF the antici-
pated acts Of hostility on the part Of
President Cleveland. We believe
that when tho special session con-
venes, the test Of strength will not be
far short of Senator Tellers estimate.
We agree with the Post that this
test should be made early, The ear
ier it is made the better it will be for
the country. We do not apprehend,
however, that when the minority in
which Mr.. Cleveland may fpd him
self is demonstrated, that he will ac-
cept the result. He is not that kind
of a man. His egotism will very
likely lead him on to a more aggra-
waited form of opposition, and in this
event the Post may expect to see the
REIMBURSEMENT it pictures, yet distant
in the future.
Out here we are crazy about sill
yer,' and to judge from the wreckage
OF banks and mercantile institutions
in gold-bug centers, the craze is about
to break forth in other sections Of the
country,-C Colorado Sun,

At pomocratIc Convention.

Hon. q. Webb Bertram SAID when
introduced TO the convention by
Chairman Wilder after his nomina-
ton:
Mr.. CHAIRMAN AND GENTLEMEN OF
THE CoNyENTIoN:--Comlng as / did
four years ago to the exalted position
to which | was chosen without previ-
Gus experience, 1 have served you IN
my feeble way for four years, and
now to receive denomination at the
hands Of my party by the vote of ev-
cry democrat in this convention rem
ders this the proudest moment Of my
life. (Applause.) 1t leaves me with
out adequate language whereby to
express to you my heartfelt thanks.
feel now as the criminal who has
just been acquitted by the jury, as
though l ought to step down and
grasp every one of you by the hand.
| can only promise you that if l am
elected | will have the same conscien-
tious regard for my oath in the future
that l have had in the past. l will
endeavor to so conduct the office that
it shall meet the approval of every
citizen of the district, no matter what
his or her political opinion may be.
But | do not want the vote of any vo-
ter Of this district under any false
pretense. Every vote cast for me
should be cast for ME with the under
standing that am ademocrat. Jap
plause) But l am western demo-
crat and in full sympathy with the
people Of the west. l believe that
the greatest crime ever committed
against the people Of the west, yes,
and against the debtor class every
where through the broad land of ours
was the denomination of silver in
1878. | do not believe that you can
50 contract the money of the country
so that 1t is not sufficient to do the
business of the country without simp-
ly robbing he who earns his bread by
the sweat Of his brow and correspond
ingly enriching those who are able to
live without labor.
Knowing that l do that we are COM
mon citizens of one of the grandest
nations on the globe, ! no not believe
in a debased currency, but l believe
that the government of the United
states could expand the money of the
country to fifty dollars per capita and
that it wonld then be worth one hun
bred cents on the dollar. l know
this expansion would be backed by
the labor of seventy million people
and the aggregate and accumulate
wealth Of forty-four states.
Thanking you for the very great
honor conferred upon me, / will leave
you to the business that has called
you here.

john SHERMAN IN a letter to his
brother the general just at the close
of the war relative to General Grant
and the presidency, prophe5ies that
after the election of 1868 the war is
sues would give place to financial
ones, and the people would inevitably
divide on the money question. How
true his prophecy was is now a mat
ter Of history. Not one election, nor
two, nor even five saw the end of the
war issues, but the sixth banished
every element of the old lines and
fought the battles on issues entirely
economic. And what of the result?
The people have spoken, and in no
uncertain tones either High protec.
ton and Capitalization are rebuked
with voice which is not easily mis-
taken. For the first time since the
war have the industrial classes ex-
pressed themselves from an industrial
standpoint. The great result has
been to break up old party lines and
the reforming Of ranks, and replant-
ing OF batteries. Already the repub-
licans have taken iniatory steps for a
new campaign, The democrats, on
the other hand, though successful in
the election, are by no means settled
in their policy. The majority in con-
gress favor free coinage, but the pres
ident and cabinet oppose it. The
populists arising as they do from the
people, the laborers, the wealth pro.
ducers, are firmly intrenched in thei,
policy. The question of economics !,
before the American people to sta,
until solved in the interest Of th,

Is 1T the men who accepted 45.
cent dollar and SIG a month in order
that the credit Of the government
might be maintained that now talk so
loudly about 70cent dollar? Not a
bit Of it; but the kick comes from the
bondholders, the very men who used
the "honest dollar" as a catch word
by means of which the power was
given them to so contract the cur
rency of the country that the public
debt to-day, according to John Clark
RIdpath. represents as much value as
it did in August, 1865. $40 the pres

in his Life and Work of James G
Blaine, "the process (contraction) has
been kept up, and Notwithstanding
the multiplied billions upon billions
which the American people have paid
in principal and interest upon that
patriotic war debt which expressed
their devotion aud sacrifice, it is the
truth of history that the debt itself is
at the present time (l803) worth vir-

was when it reached It's nominal max.
