THAT FALSE ISSUE.

st. Louis has "sound money" Demo
cratic club which proposes to argue be
fore the State Democracy in behalf OF
gold standard. The Republic OBJ
tained from one of its officers and pub
lished detailed statement OF its objects
and arguments.
Without here mentioning the merits
and defects of the reasoning employed
by Secretary Lockwood, it is pertinent
to ask all members of the party what
will be the effect on Democratic strength
of making an issue between extremes.
Intolerance begets intolerance. Ex,
tremes soidify extremes. The issue be-
tween an arbitrary free coinage ratio and
gold standard is. we repeat, false
issue and one which bodies no good for
the Democratic party. 1t is not an issue
which was ever brought before national
convention. There is no party tradition
or utterance in favor of either extreme
What is not Democratic is dangerous
There may be good Democracy in ad
vancing extreme opinions, if they are
the outcome of sincere thought, and con-
tending for them to the end, but the end
ought to be settlement and an agree
ment, not "A division and Il persistence in
intolerant dogmatism; st. Louis Re
public.
What can be the object of main
tanning party organization unless
it is, by concerted action, to carry
out certain governmental policies,
which, from time to time, appear
to be advisable and conducive to
the interests of the people? We
can conceive of no good purpose
of a political party il it is not to
meet and determine the leading is
sues presented to the country for
adjustment. And it IS not at all
probable that an organization
which has been perfected for the
purpose of promoting the peculiar
views of its members. on the tariff
question, will entirely agree upon
other propositions which are likely
to arise. Because about one half
of the voters Of the United States
have organized for the purpose of
establishing and maintaining, in
this country, Il system of protec-
ton, while the other half have adj
vocated a tariff for revenue only.
it does not follow that on the ques-
tions of the currency the individu-
als comprising either Of the two
great parties will necessarily agree.
Hence, if one of these parties
should advocate free coinage of
silver, while the other proclaims
the single gold standard PROPOSE
ton, this being conceded to be the
leading issue now before the peo-
pie, there would necessarily occur
II readjustment of party member
ship and affiliation upon the new
lines and issues. No intelligent
voter will cast his ballot for this or
that party ticket simply because it
bears the name of the organization
he has been connected with upon
other issues which have been dis.
posed of and settled, unless he is
in sympathy with the organization
in its views upon the new and live
issues presented. Every voter
ought to, and every intelligent
voter will, cast his ballot so MS 10
es' abllsh or perpeluate that which,
he believes, will best serve the in
terests of the whole country, with.
out any reference, whatever, to the
name of the party advocating it.
Principle should be considered
first, party aIterward.

HHAT GorERNMENT COSTS.

Mr.. Edward Atkinson, in an ex-
haustivc article in Hmper's Weekly,
after reviewing the expenses of
this government since 1880, con-
cludes by congratulating the peo-
pie Of the United States on the
fact that our expenses are less per
capita than those of Europe.
While the expense of maintain
ing any government must neces-
sarily become larger MS population
increases, the cost per capita ought
20 diminish as the country gre ws
in the number of its inhabitan
Yet, WHEN VIC compare the expend-
iturcs of this government now
with those OF half century ago

items of interest on the public
debt and pensions in each case, il

The city council of Shreveport
soon after the subsidy was voted to
the railroads, met and passed a
house building ordinance. They
treated with the ten story building
just as If that town was going to
build up instead of down. Since we

where the council was wise, for a

The advance in leather has
obliged manufacturers to make a
corresponding advance in the price
of shoes, with probably the only ex-
ception of W, L, Douglas, who,
notwithstanding the high price of
leather, will continue at the old
prices, and give a better shoe than
ever before. The recent additions
to his already large factory, makes
his plant the largest in the world
devoted to manufacturing an eX-
elusive line of shoes. Messrs
O'Dwyer & Ahern sells this splendid
shoe.

some of the Eccentric Requests That

Not the President Of the United states
himself receives a larger or more curious
collection Of mail matter every morning
than the postman leaves at the door OF Mr..
George Vanderbilt's home. Since the fame
of his fine gifts 10 charity's name and the
building of his great Southern palace have
gone forth, this unsolicited correspondence
from all parts of the country. has increased
tenfold, flowing chiefly from the pens OF
women who have some fund or hospital
to which they wish this fortunate aud lib
eral-handed gentleman 10 contribute.
Begging letters, says Mr. Vanderbilt's
secretary and assistant, who manages
this daily budget, are sadly lacking ii
originality, and holding up a small, IN.

grated with a curious network of pot
hooks and hangers, the secretary is abld
to read very nearly word for word the plead
ing contents. L am a little girl, twelve
years OF age, trying to do what l can for

by the small girl, as the opening Of the en-
velope proves, for the idea OF getting

examined by the secretary and his assist
