most friendly relations with Joseph

most friendly relations with Joseph
Pulitzer as the Pulitzer Publishing
Company. Contrary to all expecta-
ton, the Col. refused to be bulldozed;
hence the fight now going on in the
courts. We rejoice to know that the
Col. has won the FIRST round of the
legal battle. aud is still within range
of his money. The remarkable thing
about the fight, SO far, is the effort
made to show that the country circu-
lation of a city paper is not profitable.
Perhaps this is why the circulation of
the Republic and Globe Democrat has
been permitted to dwindle, as the man
agement of these papers do not care to
increase their circulation at loss. We
suppose that the Famous. Bars. Craw-
fords. and other retail establishments
in St. Louis will cease to offer induce
ments to country customers. as it is
equally plausible that this sort of pat
ronage is Improbable.

earnings of our people. Paid in hon.

burden, certainly; but under the gold

THE New Madrid Record quotes with
apparent approval the following mess
of rot from the Louisville Courier-Jour-
nal:
Senator Vest would be willing to &C
cep. 20 to l ratio. But if the 16 to l
ratio is to be surrendered by the free
silverites, why pitch upon 90 to L? II
a lot of crossroads politicians can get
together at Washington and simply be-
cause they call themselves Congress
pass law having the magic power to
make 20 ounces of silver the equal OF
ounce of gold, whereas two seconds
before 80 ounces of silver were not
equal to ounce of gold, why not draw
up that law so as to make one ounce
of silver equal to one ounce of gold!
If parity can be created by the mere
'.Be it enacted" of Congress, let US
have parity that is parity-silver
equal to gold, pound for pound, ounce
for ounce. grain for grain, no favors
asked and no Determinations shown.
That would be bimetallism sure
enough.
No advocate of free silver coinage
wants any other than the natural ra
tio-the ratio that stood the text Of
eighty years, and which made the sill
yer dollar, on the day of its demone
tization, worth three cents more thar
the gold dollar. By the way, where
does the Record stand? Is it in favor
of the single gold standard? Has i
the courage of its convictionsP If so
let it announce its position.

SECRETARY CARLISLE thanks God
that the 'silver craze is passing" 1t
sspassed." SO far as he was concerned,
when he surrendered his manhood and
became the servile tool and mouth
piece of Mr.. Cleveland. and no doubt
when he is with the Eastern money
changers he flatters himself with the
delusion that Democrats have no will
but to follow where he leads. His
drivel to-day, placed side by side with
his utterances when he was the hon.
ored servant OF the people-'swhen he
was a sender of messages, not bearer
OF them"-is mournful to contemplate.
How have the mighty fallen!

DICKENS must have had Pulitzer in
his mind when he formulated the joey

Jones is one too many for his slyness.
The history of the negotiations concern
ing the transfer of the Post Dispatch
to the latter gentleman, and the twist
ings and turnings of Pulitzer to avoid
the conditions of the contract, after the
transfer, is very interesting reading.
But it's Pulitzerian.

The Money Devil has been trying to
play a very smooth bunko game on
Col. Jones of the Post-Dispatch. Hav-
ing secured practically the entire me-
tropolitan press at the north, he felt
that it would be wise to guard against
future contingencies by removing out
of his way or securing the services of
those who might become troublesome.
The Col. is one of the ablest newspaper
men in the United States and has very
pronounced silver views. The Money
Devil felt that he had no strings on the
Col. that would hold; he felt, further,
that it would be unsafe to permit the
Col. to be loose in the field of journal

cate of free silverites, thus giving them
an organ with an able manager. So

that any contract he might have made

pected that when this view was pre-

As to FlstlcuMng.

Urged on by religious cranks and
fool editors, Gov. Culberson has COM
mitted the irretrievable blunder of call
ing the Texas legislature together in
special session in order to prevent a
boxing contest with gloves. A sensi-
BILE governor would consider Texas less
disgraced by one fist fight than by the
thousand-and-one murders with knives,
pistols. muskets and rifles which have
desolated its homes and stained its So
cial record. And the same may be
said of every State in the Union. Any
bod but an idiot would prefer to see
men settle their personal quarrels
with Natures weapons, which do COM
paratively little injury. rather than
with murderous implements which
place cowardice and courage on equal
footing. The manly art of pugilism
discourages assassination. 1t should
be restricted but not prohibited
Southeast Gazette.
The esteemed philosopher OF the
Gazette lags superfluous behind the
spirit of this closing epoch of the
Nineteenth Century in the matter of
prize fighting. Trained pugilists slug
ging each other for the money there is
in it, is not settling personal quarrel
with natures weapons, but is putting
those weapons to most brutal and
disgraceful use. Besides, it is not
clear that that mode of settling dis
putes indicates courage, or that the
use OF other weapons in certain emerg-
ences is sign of cowardice. If all
men were physically equal, the fistic
mode of warfare might answer, but
what show would the small, delicately
constituted man have, when pushed
and imposed upon, in such an encoun-
ter with brawny, over-bearing. we'll
developed specimen of the man ami
NAL? The philosopher misses the
spirit of the age. It is not that prize
fighting is worse than duelllng or the
use of murdsrous implements in per-
sonal encounters, against which latter
the laws are very stringent, placing a
penalty on even carrying concealed
weapons. but that both methods should
be discountenanced. There is nothing
elevating in prize fighting, or as the
philosopher puts it, ga boxing contest

tendency, appealing to the most brutal
fraternity and the tough element gen.

spread interest is manifested in these
brutal slugging matchea whenever one
of them comes of, and that the papers
with detailed accounts are sought. and
read with avidity, but that only shows
how much barbaritv is still latent in
mankind even under the thick veneer
of our boasted civilization. The So

MONDAYS Republic contained quite
interesting communication from the
pen of Col. Chas. H. Jones of the Post
Dispatch. In it he lays before the pub
lie the whole controversy between
himself, MIR. Pulitzer, and Mr.. Pulit-
zer's general agent, Semitic gentle
man by the name of Solomon S. Car
valho. The disclosures of the Colonel
render it clear, as we have charged in
another place, that the willy Joseph is
after his $50, 900, without giving him
anything like an equivalent therefor.
The following extract from the Colo
nel's letter to Mr.. Pulitzer makes it
equally clear why he is so implicitly
trusted by the people of the MISSISSIPPI
pi Valley:
..In regard to the silver question,
cannot degrade myself in my own eyes
and disgrace myself in the eyes of the
people who have trusted me by telling
them that / have changed my views on
a question that vitality concerns them,
when have not. What have writ
ten on the money question I have writ
ten from conviction. and do not hold
my convictions subject to anyone else's
change of mind. would as soon go
down on Olive street and tell a lie to
the first group of men l might meet as
to tell the readers of the Post Dispatch
that 1 am no longer a bimetallist, but
am now a believer in the single gold
standard. l will not lie to them nor
permit them to suppose that l am ca
pable of deceiving them as to my real
views.r
Mr.. Jones has refused to betray their
interests, even at the risk of pecuniary
loss. His editorial career has been
straight and conscientious. The peo-
pie recognize this and accord to him a
support that he may we'll be proud OF.
