continually made by tue Republi- can press that the Democratic party is opposed to just and legitimate pensions. The veterans, like the Democratic party, are simply hon est. They believe that pensions should be given to soldiers, and not to every Republican voter who has cataract in his eye or wart on his finger. They arc not postmor- tenn warriors for revenue only, and don't believe in keeping the war alive forever for the sake of the Grand Old Defunct party. Being honest men they are Democrats on the pension question.

The Fort Smith News Record makes these sensible and timely re- marks.
 According to statistics, mob law is greatly on the increase through out the country. No deadlier en emy to morals, liberty and the well being of a State or a people, could be conceived. Like a cyclone, it carries blight, ruin and death to any communities visited by it. It's ugly form is visible all down through the ages, and 1t has printed the bloodiest page in the history of the world. The bitter, unsuitable, blood thirsty spirit or principle that it in- wolves has been visible in religious morals and politics, as well as in the every day affairs of men.

Is common exclamation aG this season There is a certain bracing effect Tn cold air which is lost when the weather grows warmer; and when Nature is renewing her youth, her admirers feel dull, sluggish and tired.

A SPECIAL from Washington says Secretary Carlisle's latest expres
 sion to the public on the financial situation indicates that the efforts of the administration will be to se- cure the repeal of the silver pur- chase act This is the policy to which Mir. Cleveland is committed, and when his cabinet was appointed he seems to have been careful to run no risk of dissent upon the silver question in his official family The law of 1890 is still looked upon by the President as the cause in part of the outflow of gold, and the See retary of the Treasury evidently agrees with him. The President be- lieves that Congress will soften on the silver issue, and, after the gold reserve has been closely trenched upon few times, will consent that the silver purchase act shall be re- pealed, This is not likely to be ac- complished, but the free silver men may yield something if the Pres
 ident will also yield something. There might be compromise on the old Bland act, but the uncondition
 al repeal of the silver purchase law, with no practical recognition of sil
 yer to take its place, would be very hard to accomplish. While the close pressure upon the gold re
 serve has led many people to think

pRETENnEp REFoRMERs.

Memphis C0mmercIal: W hen NIT. Cleveland was elected by majority so vast as to outstrip all parties, it was popularly believed that the SO called Peoples Party died and would trouble the minds of men no more forever. 1t seems, however that this was a mistake A few of the slaugh- tered carcasses which were left on the battlefield have proved to be only badly wounded, and with their arms in slings and with poultiees in picturesque confusion over their en- tire anatomies, have again begun to l indulge in their old habit of talking. The point made by these relics is the existence of social discontent, and the growing perception in the minds of men that financial and so- cial conditions are not what they should be in America. They claim that the Peoples Party represents the continual minority. which i'll the face of organized systems of use and want, has always had place in the world, battling for the rights of men and general reform. It is hard to be patient with these theories they are so palpably absurd: but, for the req son that unhappiness is generally desperate, and that suffering turns to any promise of relief, it seems to us that thoughtful men should a gain dignify this polyglot army of cranks by mention.
 There's a great social movement now in progress iD America. Everything points toward great and wonderful changes in the relation of labor and capital, which changes will result in the amelioration of the condition of the producing classes in all the de- partments of life. But these chang es must come about through the in strumentality of the nations intel lect, not it's greed and passion. No great reform was ever accomplished by passionate action. No allevia- tion has ever come to the distressed rthe selfish and greedy action of men working for interest. We may take the greatest revolution that ever oc- cured in human affairs, the French Revolution, and will find that this truth applies thereon. The Robe spheres and Dantons could institute reign of terror it is true, but after the spasm of passion, the moderate and conservative element brought peace and order to France, their task not facilitated, but infinitely retarded and delayed by the temper ary success of violence and passion. When Mirabeau and such men as the leaders of the Girondists organ ized the revolution there was no in tention of bloodshed. A calm and sensible plan of change was in oper- ation, but brutality and greed took the work out of their hands, and produced a carnival of horror from whose evils France has not yet re- covered, which did the world no ser vice other than the sentimental one of creating terrible warning to tyranny, which example cost much more than it was worth.
 So, in America our changes and alleyiations must come from the thought of the nation, gradually, se- riously, patiently. The men who are capable of bringing about these changes are in the democratic party.

that our currency is threatened with irregularitY, it has had the effect of of stimulating radical silver men in their views. They hold that silver is a legal and proper coin in which to redeem notes, and that the coin notes of 1890 should be paid in gold There are at least two kinds Of silver men. There are those who believe in the use of both met als as money and the rcgnlation.o of the quantity of silver used by the need for currency. There are those who are in favor of the free and nn- limited coinage of silver. The lat ter are indifferent to the gold re serve. They say ~pay 1t out and when it is all gone pay with silver
 They look upon the effort to main tain a hundred million gold reserve as an insult to silver and they are impatient with the proposition to preserve or restore the reserve at any stage of the proceedings. There will he splendid combat, or else much conciliation before the money question is settled.
