A SILVER CONVENTION.

We understand that a call will
soon be made for a silver conven-
tion to put Louisiana in line with
the other Southern and Western
States. We sincerely hope that
this will be done as soon as posi-
BILE. There is to be a bimetallic
convention held in Memphis this
summer, to which Louisiana
should send delegates, and these
delegates should be elected by a
convention of the people and not,
as was the case with most of the
recent so-called "sound money"
convention in Memphis, chosen
by themselves.
There is every reason why Lou
isiana should fall into line with
the other States and endeavor to
force an early settlement of this
great economic and financial ques-
ton, upon which the prosperity Of
the country so largely depends.
I Moreover, the people haze a
right to be consulted on this, as
on all great issues. The princi-
Piles of our government require
that all matters shall finally be
passed on by the people, In Sc
veral European countries, in the
present status of the financial
question, a referendum would be
insisted on, whereby the people
would be given chance by their
votes to say whether they favored
a single gold standard or bimetal-
lism and the free coinage of sill
yer.
We have no such provision in
our organic law as the referen-
dun, but the people, through
meetings and conventions, have
a right to express their sentiments
and present their views.
A settlement of the financial
question; which has been vexing
and unsettling this country for
years, is desired at an early day.
In order to accomplish such chan
ges in our financial system as will
remonetize silver and put an end
to the conspiracy by which 1t is
proposed to contract the worlds
currency by abolishing the use of
silver altogether, organization
should be begun now, and those
who believe in a bimetallic cur
rency should go actively to work
in the cause they believe in. The
campaign has already begun.
The single standard men have al
ready held their convention at
Memphis, to which Louisiana sent
its delegates. Unless it is desired
to let this go on record as the SEN
timent of Louisiana a convention
should be held here, to which the
people will send delegates, so that
the country can be shown what is
the popular sentiment of Louisi-
ana. There are a thousand rea-
Sons why the convention should
be hald, to make known aMenti-
ment of ths people, to ASSET in
Fastening settlement of theshn-
ancial question; ahdto assure that
tinansial felief so greatly needed

it, that 1t. may cause division in
our ranks, IS absurd, because there
is no question which will not have
the same effect. In this view OF
the matter we would have beer

BOOK KNOWLEDGE.

very strongly on the dangerous
side of book knowledge, 1t says:
The fact is indisputable that good
many people are distinctly narrowed by
it. They are so carried away by the
ideas of their authors that they lose
their own independence Of thought.
and simply reflect that Of the last book
they read. A lung course OF reading
deprives them of the power of thinking,
| and habit of depending upon Others gra-
dually becomes fixed.
As to any great increase of efficiency
through book knowledge, the weight OF
| testimony is largely against it in fact
efficiency seems to lie with those who
| have no such knowledge. Perception,
Judgment, and decision create efficien-
cy. and the man who is greatly devoted
to books is apt to he mentally preoccu-
; pied and to lack the two latter qualities.
The writer fails to distinguish:
Ia book consists essentially of two
elements fact and inference; ma
terials and construction An archi-
tect is none the less an expert that
| he has not moulded his bricks nor
sawed his lumber. He takes them
ready made, without thereby los
ing any of his. inspiration in the
crention of a cathedral.
A vast majority of important
.tfacts with which he become &C
quainted:in this world are matters
of evidence; they are learned from
others. Of all history, with how
much have we been contempora-
ry? Of the current life to-day
throughout world, how much pas
ses under our immediate observa-
ton? Yet the knowledge of these
facts is the foundation of wisdom.
| But book contains, also, infer
ences from it's facts. Here is
where the danger comes in of en-
couraging habits of mental mac
tivity. The sedentary man forms
no muscle; the inactive reasoning
power remains undeveloped.
It follows, not that people ought
to avoid knowledge of facts, but
that they ought to be taught to
reason from those facts. They
ought to be trained into habit of
investigating for themselves what
are or ought to be the relations OF
facts to one another, their causes
their results, their meaning as
parts of a whole.
There is no doubt that some
persons are prone to mental acti-
witty as others to muscular exer-
ton. But the sedentary man can
be warned of his danger and stim-
ulated to voluntary exercise. and
there is no reason why others ill.,
clined to mental lassitude might
not be similarly cautioned as to
impending injury and aroused to
the Importance of systematic men,
tai exertion. The mere conviction
of such danger and such a ne
cessity would be already great
point gained in the discipline oil
an intellectual training.
| From the earliest dawn of intel
ligence, children ought to be en-
couraged in habit of reasoning
on the facts put before them. AT
ter forming conclusions of thei1
own, 1t Will be time enought Il
put them in contact with the con
illusions of better trained minds
that their own crudeness may be
come apparent to them and thei
tendency to error corrected

A SENSATIONAL SESSION.
south Carolina Convention DevOtes
Itself to Editor Gonzales.

COLUMBIA, 5. c.. September l3.-The
constitutional convention to-day DEVOTED
nyacticaIly its whole days session to the
discussion OF the Patterson resolution
IN denounce the editorial statement IN
the State newspaper and vindlcate Gov
ernor Evans, president Of the convention,
from the charge OF having wiltul!y MS
stated the vote on a resolution on Mon
day last, and there was another sensa-
tional session in consequence.
Things were lively from start to finish,
and particularly when Senator Tillman
made one II his hottest speeches, point
ing his finger at Editor Gonzales, who
was on the floor OF the hall until the
vote had been taken, and the amended
Patterson resolution had been passed.
II was n matter OF great public in
terest. and the galleries were hlled with
spectators from the time the days pro-
ceedinCs were opened until the nhaI vote
WAS taken about o'clock in the after
noon. Aside from this matter there was
no other feature of the days session,
though a great many ordinances and res
buttons of more or less Importance were
presented near the close of the session.
The coming storm was scented at the
opening Of the days session, even IN the
PRAYER of the Rev. Mr.. Parrott who
asked that they might have pleasant.
practical ana profitable Session. and
made a reference TO editors.
Mr.. Patterson presented substitute
for his resolution introduced yesterday,
which concluded as follows:
I. "Resolvll. That said editorial
statement is unsupported by facts, Sena-
tor Irby having announced upon the moor
Of the convention that the announcement
OF said vote by the president was correct;
and In consequence, as said editorial Is
a reflection upon the honesty and In
tegrity of the president OF this convention,
and an insult 10 this body: be IL
2 Resolved. That the convention desires
10 express its entire confidence In the
integrity, honesty. and FAIRNESS or our
president, the Hon. John Gary Evans,
and we 40 hereby declare the statement
in the aforesaid editorial TO be unsustain-
ed by the facts, and untrue.
g. .Resolvsd, That We consider the
editorial I'm question an abuse OF the
privilege granted 10 the press. In adj
hitting its members 10 the hoor or the
convention"
Mr.. Patterson made quite speech on
the resolution, saying IL was a rebuke
that they owed to the people. They had
a right to revoke the privileges granted
10 the press, and could punish for con
tempt. but this he refrained from urging.
because he did not wish the writer OF
the defamatory article TO appear as A
martyr. Let It not 80 TO the world, how
