If ever the country adopts free
coinage of silver, and makes silver
dollar as good as a gold dollar, SO
far as paying and purchasing quail
ties are concerned, it will be done
within the lines of the Democratic
party. In 1896 a free silver Demo
crat will be nominated for Presi-
dent, on free silver platform.

The National bank circulation at
the close of April reached larger
aggregate than at any time since
July, 1889. The figures were only
slightly in excess of those of the
maximum circulation taken out to
meet the panic conditions of 1898,
but we are nearly s42,OOO,OOO in
excess of the minimum circulation
at the close of July, 1891. This is a
good business sign.

The Republican party having de-
based silver by legislating against
it, now use that debasement as an
argument why it should not be re-
instated to its old position Having
lowered its value by taking from it
the right of free coinage, they now
say it shall not have free coinage,
because one half of its value has
been taken away.
Upon this point all who believe
in the Democratic platform and
Democratic practices certainly agree
silver should be restored as a
standard money without discrimina
ton against either metal as to ad-
mission to the minis or as legal
tender and at such a ratio as will
maintain the parity of the two
coins. And that is all there is in
the silver question.

A valuable Stlek Of Timber.

@. w. Myers, an agent for large
venoering company on Long Island,
New York, was here today and re-
ports having purchased one walnut
stick of timber from up the Guyan,
which he paid $4,000 for. This
will be shipped to the firm in New
York, rather as sample of the tim
Der, and Mr.. Myers states that there
are many other sticks up the Guyan
just as valuable as this one. We
might add that this tree was cut
near the line of the new proposed
railroad up that stream.
The Republicans are hard pushed
for an issue for go, but Chauncey
Depew thinks it should be "hard
times" 1t won't do, gentlemen.
About the hardest times the coun-
try has seen in thirty five years was
from 1873 to 1878 under Republican
rule. And perhaps the next hard
est began in 1893, just after the Re-
publicans robbed the treasury, and
enacted their last high tariff bill.
Besides, the times are steadily i'm
proving under Democratic rulc, un-
der the first Democratic tariff in 80
years. 1t won't do, gentlemen.
Try again. Make itsilver, or tariff,
or anything you choose; you will
find the great party of the people in
line, with good man to lead them.

NEWPORT. II. l., Aug. 2.-The Vigi-
liant won the golden cup for sloops today,
because the Defender was forced to with
draw frou the race within half dozen
miles of the finish on account of a broken
gaff. But for this accident the Vigilant
would probably have been nine miles or
moro behind the Defender. So far rs
practical results go. the race only reiter-
ates what everybody knows, that the De-
fender is the fastest light. weather boat
ever built in America. She outpointed
and outfooted the Nigilant in the beat TO
windward, which was the first leg of the
course, and gained about eight minutes
on her rAduring the second leg, run before
the wind, course supposed to be most
favorable to the center board yacht. But
Just as the new vessel undertook stretch
for home. with only six and half miles
OF the entire thrty-eight to cover, her
hollow gaff snapped in two and she was
compelled to give up. AT the turning of
the sacond marx the Defender ~as : min
utes 50 SECONDS anead OF the Vigilant on
the time consumed on the start. and she
had the same opportunity to lengthen
IL at she had off Sandy Hook July 22d,
when ON long stretch for Ii ONE she in.
creased her lead. The last part OF the
race was a closer stretch, but the high
pointing qualities of the fin keller justi-
fled the statements that she would have
gained on that leg. Although the Vigi-
liant won the race. it is growing opin-
ion that the American cup committee are
satisfied that no formal trial race will be
necessary, because the sailing of the De-
fender fOuaV good pnnnuh n pviHapca

all that is wanted in way OF information.
The Jubilee and Volunteer. which also
started today. were never in the hunt
with the Defender and Vigilant although
the Jubilee did make better time than the
Vigilant in the eighteen mile run in the
wind from Bockl island to the flagship.
