NAPOLEONS OF FINANCE.

There are many thousand Ma
poleons of finance in this country
according to their own estimation
of themselves-among them a con-
siderable number of the asmali
fry" of the country press-who
have become mOnOmaniacs on the
subject of the free coinage of sill
yer and imagine that they have a
"lead.pipe cinch' on the financial
question or in plain Anglo-Saxon
vernacular, they think what they
don't know about finances and the
salvation of the Republic is not
worth knowing.
Therefore, it is incomprehensi-
bic to us why President Cleveland
has not long ago sought the as
sistance Of some of this grand ar.
my of rustic financial wiseacres,
who could easily have solved, to
their own satisfaction, if not to
that of the people Of the entire
country, the financial problem now
distracting and rending asunder
the councils of the two great 20.
litical parties.

THE EFFECT OF FREE COIN
AGE.

The silver dollar, as we have al.
ready declared, is equal to the
gold dollar, y" far as its pnrcAas
ing power is concerned, because the
government guarantees to main-
tain ii parity of value between
the two, but if the country should
be flooded with silver dollars, a.,
would probably be the case, if a
free coinage bill should be enact
ell Into law by Congress, the gov
ernmcut would lie powerless to ell
force any such guarantee or re-
deem any such pledge and those
who remember the deprecated
condition of Confederate money
during the war-after all the gold
has been exported to foreign cOun.
tries, as will be the case-can in
agiue the fate in store for silver as
circulating medium, the enhanc.
ed value OF all the necessaries OF
life, an impetus given to specula
ton, in which few will realize
foltmncs, while the mass OF the
people, the laboring classes par
Ilcularly, will be crushed to death
between the upper and neither
mill stone of poverty, while an ap
parent, but really fictitious pros
perity exists.
The same unfortunate condition
of rffairs will be re-enacted, DIS III
1864, when gold was at a premium
of lSj per cent. over greenhouses

BALLOT REFORM. - Ballot re.

red to dismOunt on one side or the

1t was addressed by distinguished
speakers and Judging from the
tenor of the speeches and the ap-

ito organs to uncork their Walls OF
,ienunuiatiOn and cast their Shiny
and polluted contents upon the
head of President Cleveland, on
account of his financial views,
especially inrrgard 10 the free coin'
age Of silver, except by and
through international agreement.
dis financial views were well
known to the country twelve
months iu advance of his nomina-
ton, set forth in a reply to E.
EIlery Anderson, Of New York.
Therefore, when the Democratic
party voted for and elected him,
the individual members of this
political organization did so with
a full knowledge of his financial
convictions. Hence, to perpetually
arraign him now before the bar OF
public opinion, is equivalent to a
tacit, if not virtual aud substantial
admission on the part of such jour.
nails, that they are either very in
consistent or densely ignorant.

NOT SUCCESSFUL OR HAEMO.
NIoUs.-The meeting Of anti.ad-
ministrationists held in New Or.
leans last week, seems to have
been attended with iuharmonions
and unsuccessful councils, as we'll
as Insignificant numbers. Those
present seemed 10 be very much
divided as to the Object Of the
meeting, some declaring that it
was to formulate an active and
hostile opposition to the rcnonina-
ton of Gov. Foster, while others
contended that the only object
sought to be attained was that of
ballot reform. Hence, III this d.
vided and unsettled condition of
mind in reference to the objects of
the meeting, some withdrew and
Others remained and gave in their
adhesion to the resolutions which
were finally put and declared
adopted. The members should re-
member the trite but expressive
aphorism, eff at first you don't
succeed, try. try again." Perhaps,
next time they may be rewarded
with a larger following and may
be enabled to take the necessary
steps to leglslate Murphy j. out
Of Office. But there must beg har-
mony and concert of action. a
small and divided house cannot
stand, much less expel an enemy
FROM its corridors.
