OF Gno IOunQaClOn OF Gfl0 heavenly Wall,
if you are not able to accept the theory
of the ancient Greeks, who said that the
amethyst was a charm against intoxica-
ton, or if you are not willing to accept
the theory of the ancient Hebrews that
the amethyst was producer of pleasant
dreams? My answer is, have brought
you to the top row, the twelfth layer of
the foundation of the heavenly wall of
1900 miles Of circling amethyst, to put
you in a position where you can get
new idea of heaven; to let you see that
after you have climbed up twelve strata
of glory you are only at the base Of the
eternal grandeurs; to let you, with en-
look far up, and to force upon you the
conclusion that if all our climbing has
only shown us the foundations of the
wall, what must the wall itself be; and
If this is the outside of heaven, what
must the inside be; and if all this is fig
urative, what must the reality be? Oh,
this piled up magnifcence of the heav-
emily wall! Oh, this eternity Of decora-
ton! Oh, this opalescent, forescent,
prismatic miracle of architecture! What
enthronement of all colors! A mingling
of the blue of skies, and the surf of seas,
and the green of meadows, and the up
holstery of autumnal forests, and the fire
of August sunsets. All the splendors OF
earth and heaven dashed into those
twelve rows of foundation wall. All
that, mark you, only typical of the spir-
itual glories that roll over heaven like
the Atlantic and Pacific oceans swung
in one billow.

whose success we were told last year the
future welfare and safety Of the country
depended. According to the Hon. Mr..
Bland the Eastern representatives of the
reform party are at present engaged in a
bunco game. The bunco game is a
process of cheating by means of false
pretences. The particular false pre-
tence which Mr.. Bland alleges against his
Eastern brethren is the pretense of sup
porting the tariff plank of the last
Democratic national convention in good
faith. The time has not come perhaps,
when it can be declared beyond all
doubt that their profession in this respect
was false profession, it will not have
come until the Eastern Democratic
representatives in the United
States Congress have formally declared
their views as to what the new tariff
legislation which the coming Congress is
going to undertake should be. There
is no misunderstanding what the Demo-
cratic platform declared it should be,
and pledged the party to. There was
no equiyocation. no ambiguity about the
tariff plank of that platform. There were
shutting and evasion on the silver ques-
ton and several other matters, but the
resolution in regard to the tariff was
clear cut, direct and decisive Protection
was declared robbery, pronounced I'M
constitutional and antagonistic to the
doctrines and tradl tions of the Demo-
cratic party, and the convention after an
exhaustive debate declared by an over
whelming majority that it would have
none of it. Every Democrat who was
elected to Congress gave in his adherence
to this platform, and he is bound to
abide by and live up to it. Every Demo-
GRAFT that fails to do SO will merit the
epithet that Mr.. Bland has applied to
him in anticipation of such conduct.
Every such Democrat will have been
guilty Of obtaining votes on the false pre-
tense that he was supporting and would
support the party platform in good
faith. Every such Democrat will have
buncoed his constituents. Mr.. Bland
seems to be fully convinced that many
Democratic representatives from the
East have fully made up their minds to
engage in this disreputable business.
We are Inclined to think he is a
little too hasty. It is undoubtedly the
fact that they are being urged to this
course by many Democratic and Mug
wump organs, but it seems hardly posi-
BILE that they will be guilty of such bare
faced treachery.

lines; all the Republicans voted for it
and all the Democrats voted against it.
But why did the Democrats vote against
1T? Was it because they regarded it as
an unsound measure and wanted some-
thing better? Quite the contrary. So
far as the great majority Of them were
concerned, it was because they had been
voting for free coinage, and they opposed
the Sherman bill because it Ibid not do
enough for silver and because it dis.
continued the coinage of the silver dol
lar. The Democratic press now conceal
these facts, and they represent the silver
law as a piece of Republican iniquity,
attempting to make their readers be-
iieve that the Democrats opposed it be-
cause 1t was not sound.
But the facts are these, and we chal.
lenge any of our Democratic contempt
raries to dispute them. Under the Bland
law, which was then in force, we were
coming monthly 100000 lightweight
silver dollars, which could not be forced
into circulation, but went into the Treas
ury vaults as fast as thew left the mint.
The danger of continuing this course
was recognized both by President Cfeve-
land and President Harrison, and a re-
form was called for. But the accom-
plishment of reform was impeded by the
fact that small, but noisy, minority of
Republicans in Congress and an over
whelming majority Of Democrats wanted
free coinage, In the Senate the Demo-
Gratis voted for free coinage % to 8; in
the House, they voted for it, 113 to %.
In the Senate the Republicans voted
against free coinage q to Is; in the
House they voted against it 100 to %.
Now, will any of our Democratic con-
temporaries which are so Jealous in in
sisting that the Republican party must
bear the whole responsibility for the
Sherman law venture to maintain that
the Sherman law is not much better than
the Bland law, which it displaced, and
infinitely better than the free coinage
bill, for which the Democrats in both
branches Of Congress commended? And
If they dare not assert this, it follows
that the Republicans are responsible
simply for giving the country something
much better than it had and immeasura-
bly, better than what the Democrats
wanted, but something not SO good as it
might have been.

MCGLYNN AND HIS DOCTRINES.
He Will Continue to Discuss Economic
Questions as of Yore.

Rev. DR.. McGlynn will deliver an ad-

ligions at Chicago next month on the

now perhaps with greater freedom. The
doctrines have taught have been exam
ined by Mgr. Satolli and four other the
ologians, and they found there was moth
ing in them contrary to the teachings of
the Catholic church. All of my speeches
during the last few years were but thinly
disguised sermons. | always tried to
put into them religious spirit. When
was restored to the church | was not
compelled to make retractions of those
teachings, The spirit of religion was SO
strong in me that I felt that even if I
talked from the tail of cart or the head
of a barrel the place was sanctited. For
years ! made speeches on the politics of
the Lords Prayer. Ny constant aim
was to teach the faJherhood of God and
the brotherhood of man. When / re-
ceived an invitation to speak at the
Worlds Fair | had no hesitancy in ac-
cepting. n fact | was glad to get an
opportunity to expound Christ's teach
ing there"
DR.. MeGlynn had nothing to say con-
corning his plans for the future. Let
tiers of congratulation continue to pour
inon DR.. McGlynn. They come from
all parts of the country, and express
pleasure at his restoration to the church
and the cordial manner in which the
pope received him at Rome. A letter

The poor, misguided rider had his sad

that he was obliged to sit in that horrid
and uncomfortable position, which not
only looks extremely bad and ungraceful
but is positively injurious to the health,
and is drawback to the grand pastime
