THE RIGHT OF PETITION.

Taxpayers are learning that one OF
the dearest rights guaranteed to them
under the constitution Is the right f
petition. AS there is 10 right that dor
not imply corresponding duty, 30 In
this case the duty of petilioning IL til"
primary condition Of securing good
government. No new general law Of
importance should he enacted that is
not pretty generally pr itloned for.
There is another form of petition thai
affects good government more perhars
than requests for or protests sgainT
proposed legislation. That is petition
to those in official positions controllib
patronage asking that certain perso'
be appointed to place under the state
government. There are many such
petitions now being made up al d
numerously signed. OF course, tn !
are to secure appointments for desiral =
and lucrative positions, for the fst ~
fees, otherwise termed the loaves and

Protection for Silver.

The platform adopted by the recel
diana, in Indianapolis, contains a prop,
sitlon that is worthy of more than u
passing notice; 1t Is not the declaration
OF any new doctrine, but the projection
Of an old and we'll defined principle In
TO new field. The platform said:
We favor the imposition ofincreased
Tariff duties upon imports from all for
eign countries which oppose the coinage
OF silver upon basis TO be determined
by an International congress for such
purpose.
This Is simply a proposition to U.S.,
the taxing power of the government
as q means to co+rce the nations Of th,
earth TO agree to basis upon which
silver shall be coined and used AZ
money throughout the civilized world.
What more could the most radical sill
yer man hope for? What more could
the mono-metafist ask than that silver
u used as money, aud II will be used,
should be on u basis that will forever
maintain u parity Of value Of the two
metals? Gold will not thereby be de-
preciated, but silver, on the other
hand, will at once acquire and main
tain true and permanent value In the
monetary world. Ex-President Har-
rlson addressed the convention before
that platform had been read, and he
used this very forcible language, which
is directly In harmony with the plat
form.
The Republican party is friendly to
a restitution Of silver to a place OF honor
among the money metals of the world
[Applause.l Some of my friends In the
West thought was uttering new doc
trine when declared that believed
the free use Of silver, upon an inter.
national agreement that would assure
ita continued equality with gold, would
do more than anything / knew OF,
save the establishment Of the protec.
tion principle, 10 bring again prosperity
into our commerce, [Applause. The
trouble upon this question has been
that some OF our Western friends
would not receive any man as th,
friend of silver who believed that We
could only coin II freely and maintain
its parity with gold by coming into an

A LIFE INSURANCE. Policy.

Every man ought to have one, but a
long step towards that is the possession
of Allcock's Porous plasters. 1t is Ger
tain that they prolong life, by relieving
the stain that comes from continued
suffering.
Many man can endure a sharp dis
ease better than he can the wear and
tear of pains, little in themselves, yet
constant in their strain upon the sys
tom. A weak back, stiffness In the
jpints, soreness { the muscles, seem 10
many unworthy of notice, yet they do
not little TO eXl aust the powers of
phvsical endurance. Allcock's Porous
plasters relieve them at once, and no
wise man will fail to use them on the
first sign of pain. 1t is a very small
premium that he has to pay.

The Coating Of Ironolads.

Nobody is foolish enough to pretend
that we can coat our ironclads external
ly with sealskin or with porpoise hide,
and undoubtedly we are at q great dis
advantage as compared with nature and
her living forms. Very possibly the
ultimate solution of this question may
be found in the application of some new
material altogether to the external coat
ing of our vessels. Compressed paper,
and compressed rance fiber, which are
now increasingly employed i'll America
for railway wheels and steam pipes,
would seem promising materials for
the purpose. They admit of being mold.
ed externally into any minute grooves
or tiny overlapping plates, like the
scales of fish.
Little or no extra expense will there
by be incurred, as an enormous hy-
draulic pressure, capable of forming
any required surface, is already en-
ployed in the regular course of manu-
facture. Or they can Just as easily be
nodded into a rough shagreen, which
in form can bO made facsimile pro-
duction of the skin Of the shark, And
by their tough and strong retentive
structure they would effectually pro-
tect the steel, or real skin of the vessel,
from corrosion by the salt water. But
all this is mere conjecture. Any such
suggestions which any man can pro-
pound will be nothing more than con-
lecture, so long as we are content to re-
main in our present deplorable dark
ness and ignorance of the real govern
ing conditions of the problem. What we
most require is therefore light. Con
