1T was the silver bill and not the

men at the Paterson silk mills.
How much silver did Cleveland
buy?' asked Mike Fielding, one of the
best weavers.
why. he bought 81, 900, OOo."
Yes, and the republicans bought

They have. Mike"
Now" said Mike, "why should
there be prosperity and why should
wages be high while the republicans
were buying $4,000, 900. and the
mills all stop, wages go down, and
the devil be to pay when Cleveland
bought s7.OO0,OOO? No; it wasn't the
silver bill at all. 1t was cutting down
the tariff that closed the mills Every
time they cut down the tariff our
wages are sure to be cut to match
The poor laboring man has to stand 1t
But, Mike, how would you make
the times as good as they were when
Harrison went out?" asked.
why. I'd undo this Wilson tariff
tinkering that has lowered our wages
and closed the mills. Kill it, say"
But. Mike" l said, Mr.. Cleveland
says the Wilson bill will lower your
wages. but it will make cheap goods
and we can ship them to Europe.
Well gain foreign market"
But, be CORY, it'll make chape
wages, too. Yen niver sell shirt in
Germany till our wages are as low as
theirs, and when that comes 1 will go
back to Oireland. What we want here,
be CORY. is to make the 5000, 900. 600
worth of goods which we now ship
from Europe every year. If we boys
can make these $500, 900, 900 worth of
foreign goods and the S10O, Zoo, 900
which we've been making at good
wages, we'll be sweltering in our fat
ness. Well get steady work with
good pay, and good protective tariff

A BaseIess Slapder.

Messrs- Mckinley and Reed repre-
sent to a remarkable degree the domi-
naut feeling in the republican party,
and along the same lines. We have
many times listened to them both
when discussing the same question to-
gether, and when discussing it sepa-
rately. On ali questions of public pol
icy they are practically agreed, and
either one of them, if elected presi-
dent, will sign with pleasure and with
out delay any tariff bill which a repub-
lican majority in congress may pass.
If Mr.. Mckinley had been elected
speaker instead of Mr.. Reed. Mr.. Reed
would probably have prepared the
tariff bill instead of Mr.. Mckinley.
The attempt now to create an impress
sion that the contest between them for
the presidential nomination will hinge
upon different views 10 the eco
nomic policy of the republican party
is too baseless to be considered, except
as an opportunity for stating that such
a purpose is one that neither one will
countenance.-Bost Advertiser

The business sense of the south
is developing. and, with the triumph
of republican principles in 1896, we
will be nearer cemented union than
we have ever been since the war
When that time comes the principles
for which the republican party has
contended-the purity of the ballot,
the freedom of action, the equality of
men before the law-will be triumph
ant, not because of national legisre-
ton, but because of public sentiment
and self-interest in the south. That
will be the wisest and most enduring
settlement of the vexed social prob.

President-elect Prudento de Moraes, OF
Brazil, says Harper's Weekly, was born
about fifty years ago OF wealthy and in
auential parents in Piracicaba. large and
important city in the middle OF the coffee
zone Of the great State OF San Paulo. He
was educated in the best schools OF his
native country and adopted law as pro-
fession. He early went into politics, and
gained distinction as representative OF his
native State In the Lower House OF Parlia-
ment in the days of the Empire. His course
there as republican in very small min
ority was moderate, and distinguished for
consummate' tact ami dignity. He made
Good use OF his thorough knowledge OF
parliamentary laws and usages, and en-
ployed his ability as debator to good ad-
vantage for his cherished republican prin-
cjples.
In 1889, when the Republic was declared,
Moraes was assigned the difficult position Of
Governor OF San Paulo, which State he Or
ganized against the wealthy and influential
monarchical party, which, though now in
the minority, still shows formidable strength,
defraying, as 1t does, the larger part OF the
expenses Of the revolution that started in
Rio Grande do Sui. In 1890 San Paulo sent
him to the Constituent Assembly, called for
the purpose of promulgating the Republic's
constitution, and he was unanimously elected
President hythat body. He was then elected
vice-President Of the Senate, of which, ow-
ing to Peixoto's elevation othe Chief Magis-
tracy OF the Nation, he has been the only ac-
tual presiding officer. Minister Mendonca,
who was fellow-student in law with Presi-
dent-elect Moraes, describes him as appar-
entity a man OF most gentle nature, but in
reality very energetic and uncompromising,
though just, impartial, and, above all, tact
full. He will not take Office until November
Is, unless Peixoto resigns in the interests OF
peace on or after May 8, when Congress as
sembles.

PATRICK WALSH, SENATOR.
The Editor Of the Augusta (Ga.)
Chronicle Succeeds ColQu1tt.

Governor Northen, of Georgia, appointed
Colonel Patrick Walsh, editor Of the Augusta
Chronicle, United States Senator, to fill the
unexpired term OF the late Senator Colquitt.
Colonel Walsh, so far from being candi-
date, had urged his friend, Major Cumming,
for the place. But he signihed his accept
ance Of the honor.
Patrick Walsh was born In Bsllingarry,
County Limerick, Ireland, January 1, 1S4O.
In 1S48 his father emigrated to America with
his family, settling in Charleston, where
Patrick was soon apprenticed to the Even
ING News to learn the printers trade. at
the age of eighteen he became q journeyman
printer, and subsequently pursued his stud
les In the Charleston High School, earning
money for his expenses by setting type at
night. He entered Georgetown College, D.
c., where he remained until South Carolina
seeded from the Union, when he returned
TO Charleston and entered the service OF the
State. In August, 1862, he settled in Au-
gusta, Ga, where he obtained employment
on the Daily Constitutionalist, working his
way to the front and becoming, IN 1858,
local editor of the paper. He contributed
largely to the news and editorial coll
umns, and was active In shaping the jour
nails policy during the war. In 1864 ne
became associated with l. 7. Blome In
the puDUc8tlOQ OIL Lu6 IdciuCtitOl, q Woohy
paper, with extensive circulation In the
South, but without entirely severing his
connection with the Constitutionalist.
In 1866 he was appointed Southern agent
Of the New York Associated Press, and
In 1867 he became business manager
of the Chronicle and Sentinel which In
1877 was consolidated with the Constitu-
tionalist, Messrs. Walsh and Wright con-
tinuing sole managers and editors. In
1872 Colonel Walsh was sent from Rich.
mond County to the General Assembly OF
Georgia. He was reelected in 1874 and
1876. He was delegate to the National Con-
vention which nominated General Han
cock for President, and in 1884 one OF the
delegates-at-large to the Chicago conven-
ton, which nominated Grover Cleveland.
He was also for four years the Georgia mem
ber OF the National Democratic Executive
Committee. He has thoroughly identified
himself with the interests OF Augusta, and Is
one Of the leading journalists OF the South.

KOSSUTH BURIED.
Thousands of Hungarians Follow the
Patriot to His Grave.

Patriot to His Grave.
Louis Kossuth was buried at Budapest
one week after his death at Turin. Enor-
nous crowds had gathered from all parts OF
Hungary to attend the funeral and mourn
with the people of the capital. The streets
were filled almost from wall to wall until
sunset.
The streets leading to the National Muse
um, where Kossuth's body lay in state, were
packed with people before o'clock. The
Protestant Bishop and forty-two priests at
10 o'clock entered the temporary chapel,
where eS-Premier Tlsza, the Hungarian DEL
egates and Deputies, and twenty-five mag
mates awaited the opening OF the service.
The religious ceremony was short.
There was a pause, and then Maurice
Jokai, the author, rose to deliver the funeral
oration in behalf of the Hungarian Deputies.
While the coffin was being removed to the
funeral car, the throng outside sang the
revolutionary air, "Szozat." More than
800. 900 persons from all parts ofthe Kingdom
had gathered in the neighborhood OF the
Museum. and the song was echoed and re-
echoed down the streets to points half u mile
from the spot where the procession was form
ing.
The head OF tine procession left the Mu-
scum at II o'clock. The Honveds Of 1s4S
led the line, carrying with them their old
standards and flags. Behind them walked
1000 women, clothed in black. Then came
twenty canopied cars, the clergy, kossuth's 8
sons on foot, two carriages with women
related to thu family, deputies, delegates,
committees, societies, peasants ana peas
ants wives and hundreds Of little children
in mourning. The procession was almost
as broud as the roadways, and was llTo
miles long. Between II, 900 and $4,000 vol
unteers guarded the route OF the procession,
and prevented the crowds from packing the
streets through which the body was borne TO
the cemetery.
Kossuth was buried between Deak ana
Batthyanyi, two Hungarian patriots OF his
time and political tendency.

10000 MEN STRIKE.
Pennsylvania Coke Miners Shoot
Workers and Destroy Property.

A dispatch from Uniontown, Penn, says !:
The storm has broken and the scenes OF 1881
have been repeated throughout the coke re-
eions tho big coke strike being in full force.
The call OF the Scottdale convention was
obeyed By more than half the works in the
coke field and it took fully five thousand men
from their work.
Ever since the close of the mass meetings
there had been more or less riot1ng and De,
struction of property, and several calls had
been made on the Sheriff for protection.
The ranks OF the strikers have been so en-
forced that the lowest estimates give them
IN 0OO men. From the outset the strike has
. been turbulent with q tendency to open de-
flance Of law. -,
The Hungarians marched from mill to
mill and drove the workers out, under the
muzzles of pistols. Several engagements oc-
Cured and fully three dozen workmen are
very seriously injured. Several OF the opera
tors telegraphed for deputies and tne mlis
will be guarded by them.
The district delegate convention, meeting
at Scottdale to decide II the strike should be
general was largely attended, and there was
much division OF opinion. Late in the after
noon a resolution declaring general strike
was passed by O big majority. The conven-
tion was much disappointed by the failure
of the Executive Board OF the natlonal
body OF United Mine-Workers TO mees
them as per agreement mel ,,tono GoT
of miTe-workers, which meets on May 10 at
Columbus. Ohio. The demands of the men
were axed at ninety cents per 100 bushels tor
mining, which is twelve per cent. Advance
over tie rate being paid by the Friek Com
pany. Other companies pay twelve 10 nl'
teen per cent less than FLICK.

GOVERNOR BROWN.

The result of the election in Rhode Island
was an overwhelming victory for the Repub-
ucans. Governor Brown and the whole Re-
publican State ticket are elected, and the
complexion of the General Assembly, which
now consists of Republican Senate and an
overwhelmingly Democratic House, 1s
changed. In the new Assembly not over
dozen Democrats will have seats.
The returns indicated the election Of three
Democratic Senators and the same number OF
Democratic Representatives. To these were
probably to be added three or four more hep-
resentatives from Pawtucket.
Districts and towns which have always
been regarded as Democratic strongholds
have given large Republican maJoritles
Providence, usually Democratic city, gave
a plurality OF 53S for Brown, and the Hepuo-
lisan State ticket will have about oooo plur-
ality. This was the first election IN hnode
Island under the Plurality law.
Democratic papers concede Browns elec-
ton by a plurality OF 4914. and say the Gem
eral Assembly Is also the enemys.
Hoxie, Republican, who was last year un-
seated from the House by the Democrats,
which action caused the Grand Committee
deadlock, was elected to the Senate from
Westerly.
The Democratic city OF Woonsocket has
gone Republican for the first time IN stare
election in many years. The entire Woon-
socket Assembly delegation Is Republican.
The little town of Tiverton, always eons1d- sd
cred Democratic stronghold, is also Re
publican.
The Hon. Franklin P Owen. the present
Sneaker of the Democratic House Of Repre-
sentatives, has always been returned from
the town of Scituate whenever he cared to
run. He was caught in the food, however,
and lost.
The result the election insures the choice
OF Ex-Governor George Peabody Wetmore as
the successor OF Senator Dixon in the United
States Senate.
The Democrats expected to lose the Leg
islature, but were fairly confident OF eleet,
inc their candidate for Governor. They did
NOT. however, expect land slide. That Is
what they got nevertheless. The Prohibi-
tinn rnta n-as much less than last year.

PERU'S TWO PRESIDENTS,
SENIOR BORGONO SEXES THE
REINS OF GOVERNMENT.

On the Death of Bermudez He Took
Possession of the Lima Palace,
Notwithstanding the Protests of
Senior Solar. the Constitutional
President.
A cablegram from Lima, Peru, says: On
the death OF President Bernudez his Minis
ters all sent In their designations to First
vice-President Solar, but Second Vice-Presi-
dent Borgono, backed by Caceres and the
soldiery, took possession OF the palace and
commenced issuing DEGREES.
Thus Peru has two Presidents, constitu-
tional one. Senior Solar, and a revolutionary
one, Colonel Borsono.
A deputation Of about five hundred repre-
sentative citizens waited on Senior Solar
with assurances of their adherence to him as
the constitutional President.
Senior Solar thanked them for their 10y
atty, begged them to preserve the peace and
told them that he had sent message to
Caceres asking him to define his intentions
IN the crisis. He was awaiting the answer
before taking any action.
Meanwhile the city is patrolled by a strong
guard, the church towers are full OF soldiers,
all the shops are closed, and business Is sus-
pended. There has been no rioting, but
considerable alarm Is leG.
Colonel Borgono has already named
Cabinet, choosing for his Ministers Seniors
Garcia, Urrutia, Dulanto, Antayo and La
puente.
Senior Solar, being unable to obtain any
satisfactory answer from Caceres, sent u
severe note to the ex-Ministers, reproaching
them for their conduct in only recognizing
him on paper, but delivering up to Colonel
Borgono the military forces and all the pre-
negatives of the chief executive.
He charges them with being the authors
Of the revolutionary movement and holds
them responsible for its consequences.
Senior Solar Is now in hiding. but it Is re-
ported that he has sent statement OF his
position and his claims upon the Presidency
to the diplomatic corps ct Lima.
Justiniano Borgono. who, 1t seems, will
occupy the Presidential chair of Peru until
August 10 next, Is about forty-fve years
old and is very popular in his own coun.
try. He is native OF Trujillo and
families in Peru. He owns an immense
plantation In the Department o. Libertad, OF
which Trujillo is the capital. When the war
broke out with Chile Borgono, although not
then soldier, volunteered his services. He
was promoted in short time to the COM
mand of q regiment and his military rank OF
colonel has been officially confirmed.
Will American interests suffer In Peru as
result of these controversies is question
which is causing the administration some
concern. No ship Is available at present for
duty in those waters. although In an emer-
gency one OF the vessels at Montevideo could
be sent. If necessary the Ranger, which Is
at Acapulco, could be sent to that quarter,
but she Is a member of the Bering Sea fleet,
and will be needed in the upper Pacific
shortly.
