The Democrats Opportunity.

There is certainly something patriotic and
statesmanlike in the utterances of Senator
Turpie on the question Of the election Of
United States senator's by a direct vote of
the people. That senator should arise in
his place and advocate a method of electing
senator's which would result Ia the retir-
msnt of more than one-half of that body
permanently from politics Is an indication
that the cause of the people is prospecting
in the face Of apparent defeat. When that
day shall com. tha, the p.oP,e may elect
their own senatorial Representatives. then
Will come the day when Safe Legislatures
will have time % consider the affairs cf
state, and then viii The scandals of legisla-
tive sessions have lost their most abhorrent
features Turpie assumes that much OF the
scandal is unfounded, bu: tha, the fact that
the present system of election gives rise to
scandals is argument enough In favor OF its
abolition. This measure which is 10 be
considered by the present Congress is BY far
the mssI important and far reaching meas
ure, the one which will have the most per-
manent effect upon the history of the nation
CT any consideration. All others being o
mere Commercial import are overshadowed
by this, whish means most important in
n ,vaIion upon the form OF government as
e, abhsbed by our forefathers. However
mueh we may adore their memory we can
not cut admit that in establishing the upper
house Of Congress and the methods by
which its membership was chosen, they were
infnenced more or less by the tradition of
the government IRON which they had but
resent,y separated themselves.
When the reople are permitted to vote
upon this amendment 10 the constitution,
then will occur the finpl test which shall
discljse which of the two classes of modern
SOC. ely predominates, the democratic or he
piutocraiic, those whc believe in the .control
Of tte State by the people, or those who
believe in the control Of the Stateb by wealth
II the Democratic party shall succeed in
presenting this question to the people before
IL passes from power, then i; viii have re-
deemed in the eyes of the people much ci
tie prestige which it has SO recently lost.

Significant Admission.

The Herald Of this ci,y makes the follow
ing significant admission:
The mistakes Of our financial system are
50 glaring. and have so prominently been
the active factors in causing our present
unfortunate financial depression and loss Of
prosperity that all the sophisiicai argim ent
which can be arrayed cannoE dispel that
we'll assured fact from ine minds of the
people, and it Is plainly apparent to every
homes. observer that the changing Of that
financial policy Is one OF the essential Issues
TO be worked for, if the success in holding
the lead In the government and shaping the
policy of its administration IS maintained
Now, If the mistakes Of our f=aHcial
system are so glaring. and have so prom,-
nently..been the active factors in causing our
present unfortunate financial depression and
loss Of prosperity. that all the sophistical
argument which can BE- arrayed cannot
disPci that we'll assured fact from the minds
Of the people, be true, as above Sc, forth
By the Herald, what beconss Of all this
hue and cry In republican papers that the
cause Of sour Presen, unfortunate financial
depression and loss OF prosperity" VAS due
to democratic tariff legislatior' Are we
now TO believe after all that the Cause ef our
present financial depression IS TO be found
in toe present financial system the creation
of which belongs 10 the republican party9
So the Herald places the matter before US.

Duties.

No one can choose his duties. He may
accept or reject these presented. There is
no third course. He may shu. his eyes
and try 10 persuade himself that some
things more pleasant, and not those pain
full, difficult things, are what is required Of
him. But it will be of no use. They will
remain duties just the same. IL they come
to him in the order of Gods will, his only
hope of peace and true prosperity lies in
manfulIy performing them. BE will not
escape by feeling the pain or the trouble
from which be shrinks. This inevitable
to every one who lives. But be may very
elsily escape the consolation, the high sup
port. the glorious thrill of Joy, which come
only 10 him who stands manfully in The
place allotted him and holds till death the
post to which he was assigned.

Give Them n Chance.

A vigorous effort will be made by the lead
irg colored men at the la6or conference to
be held in Denver next week to have the
word "white" stricken from the constitu-
tion Of the labor organizations. The
Christian Recorder, the organ Of the Afri-
can NJ church, contains an open letter to
John Burns who has come to this country
from England for the purpose of attending
the conference, to espouse the cause of the
colored men in the fight for equal rights.
The letter says in part:
"In the name of the rights Of labor, we
ask you TO make some notes for your coun-
tr,men at home concerning more than
100000 workmen in this country, who
suffer the greatest injutlce at the hands OF
organized labor in the United States. In
the name of these colored workmen we
urge you to report upon the conditions
which exist in this country and to recon-
mend that there be no cooperation on the
part of British trades unions until Ameri-
can trades unions shall give all woIkmen
in this broad nd an equality of opportu-
nifty.
The people for whom we speak, sir, are
no, foreigners. They are not Poles and
Huns and Italians, whose condition has al
ready provoked your compassionate and
frateraal interest. They are among the
first comsrs. They arrived with the other
first families of Virginia early in the 18th
century. Their great and only crime con-
sists in having been born black.
"Powderly made magnificent stand for
Justice mt Richmond, and his influence be-
gan to wane from that moment. Mr. Comp
ers has attempted to do something, but be
stands almost alone. There are a few lead
ers like these, who, unable to i1augurate
an agitation for equality. would welcome
from you fralernal word of warning to
the effect that they who would demand
their rights must respect the rights OF
others.

The Worlds Money.

The director of the mint Of the United
States, in his annual report, just publish.
ed, gives tables tha, show the volume OF
money in the principal countries of the
world. He states that since his last report,
there has been an increase of $64, ,000, 900
in stocks of gold money, $l24,000,OO0 of
silver money and of $l3O,00o,000 of IN
covered paper money. 1t may be useful to
explain that uncovered paper" means
paper in excess of the coin reserve held
against it. Thus our gold or silver certih-
Gates form no part of the uncovered paper,
because for each dollar of them in circu-
lation there is gold or silver dollar in the
treasury. To count these and the gold and
silver reserve held against them would be
misleading, as both can not circulate at toe
same time.
The following table gives the gold and
silver in the various countries:

A Rad Record.

SEATTLE, Dec. 1l.-It has developed
that John II. Coblentz, late warden OF
the state penitentiary, who committed
suicide to escape prosecution, was known
in Orleans, Neb., as Peter Morrison
Moody, where he was an agent Of the
Buckeye Machine Co. He married a
schoolteacher there and had three chill
dren. One of his enemies was found
dead in field there and it was suppos-
ed that he killed him, but this was not
proven. He left Orleans in 1879 and it
was found that he was defaulter to the
Buckeye company in large amount.
Later developments showed that he had
left wife in Ohio.
