POLITICAL NOTES.

nc IlepuDlcan doctors QlSaSree as to
the futlfre purpose of the party. Sena-
tor Culiom, of Illinois, in answer to a
question as to whether the party would
endeavor to restore the Mckinley law,
be restored. but the Mckinley law would
mot be re-enacted. The leading papers
OF that political faith throughout the
country take the same view and construe
the result Of the Maine election as indi-
eating: that McKinleyism is in disgrace
and the presidential pretentlons of Mr..
Reed greatly Observation-Disclosures City
Times Dem.).
That McKinleyism is in disgrace there
is no question Even so partisan a Re-
publican as Senator Cullom does not
/ claim that McKinleyism is the pure EN-
bodiment of protection.
A return to bimetallism on the part of
Great Britain is only to be looked for
when bimetallism has been forced upon
the country by the other nations of the
world. IT is the natural destiny of the
United States TO be the pioneer in the
movement which shall eventually result
in international, aye, universal bimetal-
lism. To that end silver must first be re-
stored to its money function in this coun-
try by the passage of law providing
for the free and unlimited coinage. of
American silver dollars at ratio of is
to with gold.-Chicago Times Dem).
This is the position taken by the Demo-
Gratis of Utah as declared IN their plat
form. The United States have waited
long enough for other nations to act on
the silver question; let this government
now take action by itself.
But by this limitation of the silver com
age we have put in circulation fifty times
/ more silver dollars than had been coined
before 1876 to sink out of sight INTO the
bullion market. Is it not better to have
this vast amount of silver in circula7,
mt ly a nd n mi yyith a
amount of gold than to go back to the
old blunder of free silver coinage and
/ drive over s600,000000 of gold out of cir
culation? This is himetallism, mind you;
the only form of bimetalism possible in
| this country until the commercial world
! gets ready for its International FORM

! This is the bimetallism which makes
| in reality a gold monometallism. When
the gold bugs talk about free silver
driving gold out of circulation, they al
ways forget to mention where it is go
ing to be driven to. This is a matter
that has been too long neglected.
The Louisiana Democrats who have
! boltcd the party should remember that if
on men who have q money interest in pro-
lection, it would mighty soon be COM
RELIED to give up the ghost Fortunately
i the party is not entirely dominated by
t,, ;. A..
people not the plutocrats.
Tn bis intarestine, interview on his oh
servations abroad Mr.. Depew tells of a
member of the house of commons, one of
the largest wool growers in Great Brit
ain" who was repoiced at the prospect
of getting his wool into this market. So
grown under free trade on high priced
lends and shipped 5000 miles to market.
The political shepherds who are advising
| foreign wool Is no longer taxed ought to
gain courage from Mr.. Depew's report

! The political sheperds who say the sheep
industry is dead are saying so for politi-
cal purposes. They would have it dead
because it would give them some capital
