THE SENTIMENT ON THE
SILVER QUESTION.
The Views of Prominent
Democrats.

Just now while the public mind is
agitated on the Finance Question. il
is well for us to know the views enter
tanned by the prominent men of oul
party: men of thought, intelligence,
and influence in political and public
affairs
Those of us who know nothing
about finances, look to the leaders Of
thought upon this question as upon
all other questions with which We are
not advised
We give below the views of men
well knownto the Democracy Of Ohio,
and the country.
Ex-Goyernor Campbells Views.
Ex-Governor James e. Campbell
writes the Toledo Bee, from Hamilton,
rs follows:
Replying to your query, l beg to
say that l ann one of those who
have closed debate, and moved the
previous question upon the coinage
and currency questions. Just now
am seeking a remedy for the con-
dition which confronts us. 1t Seems
to me there should be free coinage
and universal circulation of both of
those metals which the constitution
recognizes as money, and (which have
been the joint medium of exchange
for the commerce Of all ages.
Those thrifty gentlemen in the east
who have been lending us dollars
which will now purchase from two to
five times as much of the great staples
wheat, cotton, and iron as they would
have purchased twenty years ago, ap-
parently desire to yet further appreci-
ate their dollar by having it minted
exclusively from gold.
On the other hand the heretofore
highly favored silver miners fthe
west; who, for SO many years, market
ed their output by forced sales to the
government, seem to be disconsolate
because we do not ladle out to them a
dollar for each fifty-fve cents which
they produce. personally, have no
sympathy with either Of these classes.
Both profess bi-metalism; but at heart
one is a gold monometalist, and the
other silver monometalist. In the
language ofthe great bard, would
say, "a plague to both your houses"
Silver should not have been de.
monetized. 1t should be restored-l
not, however, at ratio which would
lrive out gold, and leave us but one
financial leg to stand upon. 1t should
rave the same privilege that gold has,
;o'wit: to have one hundred cents !
worth stamped as a dollar at the
United States mint. While l have
10 objection to the points ejaculation,
In God We Trust" which is SO ap-
emblazoned upon the pres
'ntsi!ver dollar, am very seriously |
to "trusting" out any part of
is value beyond that which it will
ring at the melting pot.
Yes, l am unreservedly and unhes-
tatingly in favor of the free and un.
United coinage Of silver AT ITS
ROPER RATIO.

A Southern Statesman's View.

/
Judge Aldridge of Texas, at a re-
cent meeting in Dallas says
''In the beginning God created the
heaven and the earth. From His
Omnipotent hand were flung the count
less worlds that people space. Out of
nothing He created a u things. But,
fellow citizens, we have no record that
Jehovah ever delegated this creative
power to mortal men. When l was a
barefooted boy, and was generally
in that condition Of unbridled liberty,
| read remarkable story of one
Aladdin and a certain lamp. He
could rub that wonderful lamp and
create things. l resolved that l would
get one of those lamps at any and all
cost. As I grew older l found that
the story was fake, and that my
youthful, coniiding nature had been
grossly imposed upon.
"The Populist and popularity in
clined Democrats now tell US that
this lost creative art has been recover
ed; that Uncle Sam is now in pos
session of the secret which has hither-
to eluded the grasp Of the aIcbemists,
sages, and philosophers of all the
ages; that Congress by legal enact
ment can create value. Be it enact
ed that a fifty-cent piece of silver
shall be worth dollar This is the
very ecstacy Of madness. They tell
Us that free coinage Of silver in un-
limited amounts will create demand
for silver and bring it to par. No
sane, we'll informed man believes that
statement. Demand means what the
world wants. That we, by giving
the world heroic doses Of that which
it does not want and will not take,
can create hunger for that thing, is
simply childish twaddle. They say
if the Government bought sheep, |
sheep would rise in value. If the
Government needed sheep, this result
would follow. But suppose the Gov
ernment did not need sheep and could |
not sell mutton, and was simply buy
ing to affect prices, what would be |
the result? The District of Columbia |
would soon be a sheepfold with no
outlet, and the fictitious demand thus
created would react upon the Govern.
ment and sheep-raisers and ruin both.
The United States has on hand about
S500,O00,000 of silver, which it is
anxious to put its stamp on and get
rid of. but it can not, because there is
no demand for it. This 16 to fiat !
silver movement is q conspiracy be-
tween silver mine owners, repudiators,
Ignorance and prejudice to debauch
our money and dishonor our people,

DEFENSE OF DIR. HEARNE.
With His Wife He Gave Testimony in Sup
port of His Claim of an
dEbi

BOWLING GREEN, Mo. Dec 19.-Nearly
all the principal witnesses were in court
when the defense began their testimony in
the trial of DR.. Hearne this morning. The
examination was mainly directed towards
proving an alibi and was without any sem
sational features. Both the defendant and
his wife were upon the witness-stand at
the afternoon session. Mrs. Hearne was
firm and seH-possessed and her testimony,
which covered even the remotest acts con-
nected with the tragedy, was denial of
any knowledge of the identity of the MUIR
derer.
DR.. Hearne was the next witness. Up
on direct examination he denied every
material statement of other witnesses as
sociating him with the crime and cross
examination rather strengthened the doc
tors story. and if it be corroborated with
other testimony, a good alibi will be
made out. Other witnesses followed, tes-
tifying TO the good character of the de-
fendant. Presiding Judge Roy rebukes
every delay and seems desirous of giving
the case to the jury as early as Saturday
night.

From this time the reports OF conflicts
between Turks and Arm enians with great
loss of life became frequent and confused.
At BitIis over 500 were reported killed,
the Turkish accounts alleging that the Ar
menians attacked the Moslem mosques
during the hour of prayer. AT Dierbeklr
5000 are said to have lost their lives, OF
whom 2900 were Mussulmans, but the
Turkish authorities pronounced this estl-
mate exaggerated. From Malatia comes
the report of great massacre early in
November when every adult male Chris
tan is said to have perished. Another
sanguinary outbreak with great slaughter
is reported from Sivas on November II,
when some eighty Armenians and ten
Kurds are said to nave been killed"

CALL FOR A CONFERENCE,
Manufacturers to Consider the
Evils Arising From Foreign
Competition.
Low Prices Have Not Yet Caused an
Increased Consumption in This
Country.

CHICAGO, ILL, Dec. 19.-George S.
Bowen, president of the Textile Manu-
facturers' Association of the South and
West, has issued call for conference at
the Palmer House for Tuesday, January
IA, to consider certain difficulties of the
present trade situation which are ex-
planned in the call, which says:
Manufacturers are forced to contend
with continuously declining markets. I'M
ports of certain competitive foreign goods
are largely increasing and our manufac-
turers are compelled to reduce their prices
materially in order to compete with the
low-priced productions of European and
Aslatic countries, the commerce of which
is realizing great advantage in our mar
kets by reason of exchange in the silver
using countries, the great reduction in our
tariff rates and the repeal of our reciproc-
ity laws, and as result we are brought
face to face with new and untried condi-
tions. Exports of all agricultural produc-
tions are now made at lower prices than
ever before realized in the history of our
country.
THE great bulk of our consumers are
thus obliged to restrict their purchases to
the lowest possible limit so that low prices
do not increase consumption. The textile
manufacturers are immensely interested
in the present situation, and some thought
full expression of their recent practical ex-
perience must have great weight in direct
ing wise and prudent legislation in the
present emergency"
The association has 1900 members and
embraces mills which operate 100000
spindIes and 1000 sets of wool cards.

Strikers Claim That Employers
Will Compromise in a
Few Days.
VIOLENCE PROMPTLY CHECKED.
Track Distractions Quickly Removed
and Little Damage Done by
Stone. Throwing.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Dec. 19.-Only a
few disturbances of a comparatively trivial
character marked the third day of the
strike of the employees of the Union Trac-
tion Company, and on several of its lines
the company succeeded in effecting a par
tial resumption Of its interrupted traffic.
Such cars as were run, however, were
heavily guarded by the police. The polio
authorities, since the outburst of Tuesday,
have acted with great firmness, and have
succeeded in keeping the moo spirit within
bounds.
On the lines on which cars were run the
presence of policemen on their platforms
encouraged the people to ride, and there
were many more passengers carried than
yesterday. Despite tine few disturbances
to-day the mob spirit was still apparent on
the streets, and to avoid the risk of an
outbreak the company again to-day ceased
running cars at nightfall. General Man.
ager Beetem of the company claims to
have all the men he wants, and said that
he expects to increase the number OF cars
on each line each day until the regular
schedule is again resumed.
The strikers also claim to be much en-
couraged by the outlook, and at their
headquarters to-day it was generally re-
ported that the company would compro-
mise within a day or two. That this is
unlikely would seem by the following no.
tice issued by Beetem to-day:
''All conductors and motormen failing
to regularly report for duty Friday morn
ing (the 2Oth) and prepared to take out
their cars, will no longer be considered
employees of the company"
And in addition 1t was emphatically de-
MED by the officials that the company
would make any compromise with the
strikers. 1t is thought that many of the
men secured by Beetem are from other
cities, and if the strikers Go not ac-
cept the foregoing notice he will put
others in their places.
AS on Tuesday night and last night
most of the saloons closed at 6 80 o'clock
The lines that were the most successfully
operated to-day were the Fifth and Sixth
streets, the Fourth and Eighth, the Thir-
teenth and Fifteenth and Market streets.
On these streets the cars ran regularly
about five minutes apart.
On the other lines of the company
traffic was not resumed with any degree of
regularity. In the northwestern section Of
the city, the northeastern section and the
southern section the tracks were obstructed
frequently, and in some instances the cars
and the motormen, conductors and police
men aboard were stoned.
In all cases the distractions on the
track were quickly removed, and no
great amount of damage was done by the
stone throwing, and the cars all succeeded
in getting through. Market street was
the center of congregation for large
crowd of men and boys again to-day, but
the heavy force of police and mounted
officers stationed along the curbstone
maintained good order and sternly re-
pressed the slightest indication of a row.

and will be united for the common well

Il welcome you. then, Marquis Sacra-

tality while it may please you to remain In
our midst"
He then took the little red zucchetto
and placed it on his head, and. walking
with the noble guard, entered the dining
hall, the other guests following, where
well-appointed banquet was partaken of.
The ecclesiastics present wore their sacer-
dotal raiment, and Marquis Sacrapanti
was habited in military garment, which
consisted of immense golden-trimmed
epaulettes and sword, trousers of dark
blue and coat of black cloth.
On January the beretta will be con-
ferred on Mgr. Satolli by Cardinal Gibbons

The only trouble that occurred was. at
Ninth and Market streets, when young

of a crowd that had surged out to the
tracks, broke the window of passing.car

seen the act and swooped down upon him.
and landed him in the station-house. -

WASHINGTON, D. c., Dec. 19.-The
Turkish legation received from the Sub
lime Porte the following telegram under
to-day date:
''You will please give the widest pub
licity to the following telegram sent to the
Minister of War on the 18th inst. by
General Moustafa Remsi Pasha:
% The leading men who were sent from
Marash TO give counsel to the insurgents
al Zeitoun came to-day to see me and to
state that the rebels refuse to the last to
surrender, and that they slaughtered three
days ago all the military men detained at
Zeitoun with the exception of the colonel,
of the adjutant-major and of the Markham
of this district.
Colonel Ali Bey, after having repulsed
the insurgents, assembled at the village of
Mukhal, situated an hours distance from
Zeitoun, and took position opposite the
point that we have occupied in front of
Zeitoun. Tomorrow the town of Zeitoun
will be surrounded from all sides.
"The rebels committed within the last
month all sorts of depredations. They
burned Mussulmans villages, plundered
and robbed their belongings, wounded
Mussulman women and murdered young
children. The fact that the rebels, beside
their unparalleled atrocities also slaught-
cred military prisoners, that they still per-
sist in refusing to submit to the counsels
given them repeatedly and through many
channels, and also that they increase day
by day their bloody deeds, proves that
they will stick to the end to their criminal
