THE SILVERIIE5 NEEL
WATCHING.

The Nation commenting on sen
ator Cameron's letter ID the RepuOil'
can league in convention at Denver,
which declared "the world STANDS Oh
the edge of revolution, social ana po-
litical," because "the single golu
standard seems to be working RUN
with a violence nothing can stand, +"
and submitted in obedience to Lon
don bankers, which sentiments were
received with the widest acclama'
tions of approval, took occasion TO
TO "admonish the business men OF the
country East, West, North and Soutn
who last year forced the sherman
repeal bill through congress that the
silver question is of far more conse-
ouence than any tariff question or any
party question and that they cannot
safely withdraw their attention irom
it at any time"
We think The Nation is under I'M
necessary apprehension in regard 10
the popularity of the free and unllm>
tied coinage ofsilver.at a ratio OF l6tol
nor do we believe Senator Cameron
that nine-tenths of the working people
are in favor of it. Certainly in the
last year great change has come over
the minds of the people of Texas Two
wears ago nine-tenths of the people OF
Texas were in favor of the free COIN
age of silver at that ratio, but now we
believe o majority of the people OF
Texas favor the settlement of the sill
yer question according to Mr.. CleVe~
lands construction of the Democratic
platform, and that is by interna ional
agreement.
If nine-tenths of the people had
been in favor of free coinage at that
ratio the purchasing clause OF tae
sherman act would never have been
repealed, and dispite of the "bedla
mite nonsense of Senator Cameron
and the Republican league at Denver,
of the bugaboo of London bankers,the
silverites would have forced the
fighting to successful ter
mination of that policy long
since. MIR. Cleveland's opinions
have great influence on the minds of
the American people and his deliver"
ances on the silver question have
forced the people to study the ques-
ton and readjust their own opinions
in favor OF good money. However
The Nation is very watchful, saga
cious and prudent, and it might be
we'll to keep an eye on the silverites
to prevent any flank movement and
sudden surprise by their forces.

The switchmen and tlremen did
more to help the late strike legitima'
tely thar any other railroad en-
ployes, for it was only necessary for
either of their respective representa-
tives to stop business to block the
trains, Debs very pertinently remarks
in applauding the switchmen, that
"the switchmen have more than once
gone out to help tiremen, engineers
or conductors, but does any one know
of any other brotherhood having gone
out in sympathy with switchmen?"
The switchmen, however, have re-
turned to their work and disapprove
the strike. The board of directors of
the Switchmen's Aid association met
in Chicago the other day and passed
resolution endorsing the action of
their grand master in disapprovirg
the strike. The firemen vindicate
themselves by declaring that they
will come out of the Pullman strike
stronger than they were before on ac-
count of their conservative character
as the brotherhood had at no time or
dered a sympathetic strike. Debs'
crazy craft is either condemned OF

THE Tradesman says thai the mile
age of railroad construction has been
less in the last six months than at any
time since the war. The whole num-
Der OF miles constructed for the six
months ending June 30, 1894, has a
grand total of SOB miles. The South
built almost half of this, eight states
participating, and laying an aggregate
of 2O4 miles, with South Carolina in
the lead with 81 miles and Virginia at
the tail with three miles, Texas built
Is miles of railroad in that time.

The Prisoners Surrounded

News was received in this city yes
terday that Sheriff White and posse
had Hammond and Gatlitf, the two
escaped prisoners, rounded up in the
upp. part of Williamson county, and
that they could not possibly escape.
1t seems that they have been located
in an extremely wild country, and it
may be sev,ral weeks before they can
be starved into surTendering them
selves. To say the least, the sheriff
can not forcibly eject them, for the
country surrounding them tOrbids any
such manner of procedure, being so

Whenever a newspaper takes every
occasion to garble and misconstrue

paper is eaten up with jealousy and
envy as evidenced by its watching its

D. A. ToMPKINs, of Wilmington,
NC, in a letter to the Tradesman, OF
Chattanooga, Tenn, says that the
idea of curtailing the cotton op TO
increase the price will never work.
He says the South will have to fight
to hold monopoly of cotton raising,
which is no longer monopoly, and for
that purpose he contends it must
make cheaper cotton, handle 1t
better and put it upon the
market in better shape. The South
must contend in this staple with Rus
STA, Egypt, India and South Amer
lea. He predicts that in five years
Russia will be exporting cotton rather
than buying it. Ten years ago there
was no Egyptian cotton imported into
the United States and within that
time it has increased from nothing to
40, 900 bales or 100000 pounds,
valued at about So, 600, 900. He contends
the color and luster of underwear is in"
debted to Egyptian cotton. The entire
letter bristles with facts and argu-
ments to show that it is not the de-
crease of acreage in cotton that will
increase its value in the United
States, but that the cotton OF the
United States must be made equal in
finish to the Egyptian cotton if the
cotton raiser of the United States
hopes to hold the lead in the cotton
markets of the world.

two devotees knelt before the altar rail
Father Johnson reminded them that
they were to devote their entire time to
the work of the order, and in the inter
walls of nursing TO study medicine and
religion, and that they were to take
vows of poverty, obedience and celibacy.
He then said:
''Do you promise that from this day
until the feast of the circumcision Of Our
Blessed Lord you will live according to
that rule of life which have laid down
for you, and do you make this promise
with the aim of so advancing the king
dom Of Christ and so doing his will
that you may be considered worthy of a
more extended conservation to reli-
gious ife?''
The novitiates answered in unison:
II will, by Gods help"
The service ended with a few prayers
and htany.
This VOW only binds them for three
months At the end of that time, if so
minded, they will take the vows for six
months, then for one year, and then
the final vows will be taken, and If the
bishop approves the order will be found

Samaritan. Mr.. Tibbutts is an English

in New York recently when Thomas F.
Main was chosen president of the asso-

was the eighteenth in the history of the
organization, the objects Of which are to
take the sting out of hostile legislation,
devise plans for the betterment of the
trade and promote good fellowship
among the members.
The association was organized in 1876
as the Western Wholesale Druggists
association and embraced at the time
only the trade west of the Alleghanies,
but the benefits that resulted were so
apparent TO the entire wholesale drug
trade that in 1882 the eastern men join

the organization which now controls all

sudden loss Of strength the bill conveyed

one which the House sent over to that
body which Is supposed to act as the legis-

n. Pousset has just died in Paris. leaving
an immense fortune which he accumulat-
ed from the profits of the famous "brasser-
les" or beer-halls. Of which he was the
founder. His death disclosed that he was
inspired by a notable and proper sentiment
Of gratitude toward those whose thirsts had
aided him in his acquisition Of riches.
Among the items of his will was a bequest
Of 100000 and over to be divided equally
among a dozen Of his old customers, grand
stres now. but once Unsuitable young guz-
ziers, who had been among the first to
patronize the original establishment and
who, fancytng the beer, remained steadfast
In their thirst and helped to set the fashion.
Truly, the example of NJ. Pousset Is not a
bad one. as mere exhibition Of gratitude,
but there is danger that the hope of future
reward from an opulent brewers or tap
ster's earthly leavings might induce even
more liquid consumption than at present.
As fine sample of gratitude the legacy is
admirable; as a moral agent it is doubtful.
