silver people" want, TO drop Gne
"other reforms" which we believe in
and 90 to the country on the single
issues Of financial reform.
But the Knights hopes will never be
realized. While it is true, as every
body knows, that the money question
has the first place in our platform, and
we have uniformly treated it as our
leading issue, and while it is probable
that we shall continue to do so until
success is attained, because that ia
where we are most strongly attacked,
yet | do not believe the Populist party
will drop any important feature from
its declaration of principles. 1 do not
think it ought to do so. We believe
that in the rapidly growing monopoly
Of land lies one Of the great dangers to
the republic; and we believe, further,
that the general subject of the public
surveillance Of public utilities, as com.
merce, mining, ETC., as well as money,
is matter of too much Importance to be
left untouched in our party creed.
The obstacles which the Si1Uey
Knight thinks it sees in the way of a
union with US which it so earnestly
and wisely desires, are largely imsgin-
sry and can be easily overcome. The
Omaha platform was prepared and
adopted under peculiar circumstances.
1t was made by men representing many
different bodies that had never worked
together and that held different views
concerning the sources from which our
common troubles arose, and every one
of them properly took part in the work
of constructing the new party plat
form. The wonder Is that so good a
piece Of work was done. Looking
back at it from this distance, we can
all see where it could have been Inn
proved if we had then had the light we
have now. It's phraseology might have
been so put as to bring out more clearly
and with less offense the leading prin
ciples involved. Some expressions
could have been omitted because their
substance is included in other SEN
tenCes.
l believe that single paragraph can
now be prepared that will clearly set
forth the great principle Of popular
rights underlying the Populist creed,
that its application to ell the great de-
psrtments Of industry and government
can be well stated in three or four
plsnks of a platform, and that this can
be done so as to add to the force of
every vital proposition and yet get rid
Of reading to which some even of our
own members object, leaving the docu-
ment one in which every sincere re-
former will find the germ of his own
belief.
1t will be necessary, for other rea-
sons, to revise our platform, not to re-
strict its scope or to limit its range,
but, in addition to expressing our
views more clearly, to bring the party
forward face to face with the present.
A great deal is done now in four years.
Important events crowd upon one an
other much faster than ever before.
Executive interference with Congress
sional proceedings is new departure
In our politics. Government by injunc-
tion was not thought of ten years ago.

WASHINGTON, October %, 1895.
r. II. Turner, Office Of the SilUe1
Knight, Washington, D. o.:
DEAR SIR:-I have just read your
letter of the 10th inst, asking my
opinion ''as to the wisdom Of the Pop
ulist party adopting the course out
lined" in an editorial article which was
published in the SilDer Knight OF
October 10, proposing a union Of the
friends of monetary reform under the
banner Of the PopuliSt party.
There can be no reasonable objection
to such a union. It is the proper thing,
the wise thing to do. / am most
heartily in favor of it, and am quite
sure every Populist is Of the same mind.
The Knight gives at least two good
reasons why this coming together
should take place at once. 1t says:
"All the energy Of the gold combina-
tion is now directed to keeping the
rank and file Of the two old parties in
line;" and il adds: "The silver people
and those who are in favor of financial
reform are fully aware Of the fact that
the members of the Populist party are
sound on that question"
How true both these statements are,
and they cover the whole ground.
There is no mistaking the fact that the
great leaders of Democrat and Re-
publican parties favor the single gold
standard; and it is equally true that
the only great party which is solidly,
and on principle, opposed to them, is
the Popnlist party. 1t is perfectly
clear, therefore, that all "the silver
people and friends Of financial reform"
ought to be with us now. They have
neither sympathy nor friends anywhere
else. The Populist party was formed
for the express purpose Of opposing
the "gold combination" and every
other combination that is robbing the
people. We are absolutely unanimous
on the silver question. There is no
division among us on the general sub
ject of monetary reform. We are the
only party that from the beginning
has made war on gold monometallism
and all its long train of evils. 1t is not
only wise for all friends of silver and all
financial reform to unite with the Pop
ulists, but it iS imperatiVely necessary
five expect success.
But the SiIcer Knight hesitates be-
cause, as it thinks, the Populist party
is numbered with unnecessary issues,
and it suggests that we amend our
platform by eliminating everything
not directly related to the money ques-
tion. Here are it's own words: "The
Populists' duty is to conhne themselves
to monetary reforms upon which all
can stand," etc.
The SiE0er Knight would cut down
our platform to the single issue of
monetary reform" 1t comedies that
ours is the only party which advocates
monetary reform, and truthfully says
sit Is much easier to utilize q great
party like the Populist party than to
create q new one;" but, because our
platform contains provisions that the
Knight does not approve, it doubts
whether this most desirable union can
be brought about. Here is q great

SPORTING NOTES.
Princeton, 4 State College, 8,


 Princeton, N. J., April 21.-The Penn sylvania State college nine were a sur prise to the Princeton varsity team here in their game yesterday, and it took ten innings to decide which team is the superior. The game was spirit ed throughout both teams playing ex- cellent ball. Batting honors were about evenly divided. In the last half of the tenth inning, with the score 8 to 8, Freshman Easton, who has been rap idly making name for himself at the bat and in the outfield, stepped to the plate and lined out a long, low home run hit to the right field, and the tie was broken. Easton also put up a great game in the field, throwing out three men at the plate after taking long flies. For the State college nine Ather- ton did excellent work with the ash. The score:

 Tickets for the collation., price one dol lar, can be obtained by members at the bookstore of H. H. Peck, S62 Chapel street.
 As 1t Is possible that this may be the last reunion of the association, a large attendance is very desirable.

Yale and Brown Asked to Play.

Messrs. John B. Day, E. B. Talcott and Frank Mckee, the committee se- lected by the New York Baseball club to name the winner of the cup to be given to the college making the best showing against the Giants in the prac- tlce games, have been unable to decide the question. It was therefore agreed to ask both Yale and Brown to play a game to settle the ownership, The Yales played two games with the New Yorks. In the first they made the best showing, but in the second were beaten worse than any of the teams. Brown in her one game played good ball, and almost showed up as well as Yale did in her first game. The chances are that Yale will refuse to meet Brown.

 Captain Terry Win Command the Next Cup
 Defender.
 New York, Feb. 1.-The old sea sharp Captain Terry has been engaged to sail the cup defender of 1895. It Is said that in many respects he Is the superior of Captain Hanson who sailed the Vigi- lant. His superiority at the tiller is ad- mitted and he is considered a great judge of wind and knows better when to bring the yacht about than any other yachtsman. He is also without peer as a trimmer of sails.
 In this respect the Vigilant was de- cidedly behind the Valkyrie. The Eng lishmen were much smarter than the Vigilant's crew and but for the marked superiority of the Vigilant over Valky- rie II. the much-ooveted cup might have changed hands.
 It will be decided when the trial races will take place immediately after the New York Yacht clubs meeting Febru- ary IA. The date of the annual cruise will be fixed upon on that date.
 The trials will be on the New York clubs course.
 Captain Terry will train the cup crew on the Colonfa.

Mrs. Ives, Funeral.

Mrs Maria Stille Ives, wife of pr. Robert s. Ives, and daughter of Pro- lessor Stille of the University of Pennsylvania, was a woman of many noble traits of character, retiring in manner, most unassuming and very charitable. Although long an invalid, her death was unexpected, the result of a serious attack of grip. Two chill dren survive--Mrs. Ferre Brinton of Philadelphia and Dr. Alfred s. Ives of this city.
 The funeral was very largely at tended yesterday afternoon from her late residence on Temple street. Ser vice was conducted by Rev. F. s. Lines of St. Paul's church. There were many beautiful floral tributes from members of the family and sympathizing friends.
 The honorary bearers were Messrs. Stephen Whitney, Henry L, Hotch- kiss, Thomas R. Trowbridge, L. H. Bristol, Oliver s. White and Courtland H. Trowbridge.
 The interment was in the Grove street cemetery.

The Temper of Speculation Was Bearish
 From the Start.

The Temper of Speculation Was BearisIl From the Start.
 New York, Feb. 1.-The temper of speculation at the stock exchange to-
 day was ibearish almost from start to finish. There were several rallies but these only served to stimulate sales for the short account. The unfavor-
 able character of the. statement of the Chicago and Northwestern company for 1894, which was given out on Saturday, caused pronounced bearfsh feeling on the grangers, which was intensified by reports, afterwards confirmed, that the earnings of the St. PapI for the first week of February would show de. crease of nearly $100,Ooo The advance in sterling exchange and the absence of foreign buying orders contributed to the decline.
 Outside of the grangers Chicago Gas and Sugar, trading was comparatively light. The decline in tho leading snares was equal to 4a@1% per. cent. the latter in Northwest. St. Paul. Rock Island and Burlington and Quincy yielded only 1s a point or so. Sugar was pressed for sale on rumors that a statement was about to be issued, which would make an unfavorable showing. Manhattan sold off 1% to 106 and closed at 106A. The Cordage shares were pressed for sale and sold at the lowest prices on record. Reports were in, circulation that an application was about to be made to put the company In the hands of receiver, but officials stated that they knew nothing of such a move and that the company had paid off some $600,0O0 loans since the first of the year. It is probable that a considerable amount Of long stock has been forced out of the hands of persons unable to carry the shares any longer.
 Cordage common yielded 115, preferr- ed 21s and guaranteed 3A per cent, but they closed at a recovery of h@1 per cent. Big Four was heavy through out, and closed at net loss of 1A per cent. Jersey Central and Lake Shore were the only stocks which left off with net gains, and in these cases the im- provement was only B@B per cent. Speculation left off tame and weak in tone
 The bond market was quiet and low CT. Sales were $721, ,000

IT STOPPED THE FITS.
And No Sign of Them Ever
 Returned.
What a Bright and Original Woman
 Succeeded in Doing.
Fits Are Terrible Things, but There is
 One Sure Way to Conquer Them.

Every time child has fit 1t takes a fearful stride towards the grave. They sap the very life's blood and drag from the wasted nerves the foundation of life itself. The whole nervous system is affected, and the nerve centers are fearfully weakened.
 It is just here that the peculiar and wonderful action of Dr. Greene's Ner- vura blood and nerve remedy is so strongly seen. The disease simply cam not resist it, The very first dose often produces change for the better and from that minute the nervous symp- toms grow less.
 The child who has fits, St. Vitus' dance, or other nervous diseases, gem orally has poor blood. Right here again come in those virtues which have made Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy indispensable to the sick. It makes the blood rich, pure and of wig orous circulation.
 Mrs. J. Learmonth, of ITS Broadway, South Boston, Mass, who had employ ed physicians unsuccessfully, finally determined to give her child Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy.
 At ten years of age" said Mrs. Learmonth, "my daughter became af- fected with nervous condition which soon developed into St. Vitus' dance It was pronounced by the attending physician to be a very severe attack.
 "The mouth would be drawn spas medically far to one side, the hands and arms were restless and constantly twitching. Her limbs also were weak her ankles bent under her so that it was almost impossible to walk.

An Entertainment For the Roys.

Last evening 200 boys attended an entertainment in the gymnasium of the Y. M. c. A. It was in charge of the boys committee. AIessrs. c. L. Mitchell. and J. M. Dick contributed to the pro- gram. Prof. Theodore Peterson played on violin that was made for German prince in 1850. The selections were such as would interest the boys, viz, "Imita- tions of Donkey and Driver," Rooster and Hens," and "The Old Church Bell" Mr. Willard R. Sanford gave two hu morous recitations, and the quartet of the Yale Glee club sang, and were en- enthusiastically encored, and to which they kindly responded twice. The la dies of the First Methodist and Trinity Methodist churches. under the leader ship of Mrs. Charles H. Platt and c. w. Willis, furnished refreshments to the boys.

"She was so nervous that she would scream almost like a maniac and then have fits of crying. After two months treatment without Q cure, I concluded to try Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy.
 Three bottles entirely cured her. She is now thirteen years old and has been well ever since, and to-day is a picture of health"
 Fits will never stop themselves. Re member that The one sure way to per- manently cure them Is to use Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve rem edy. It quickly and completely cures St. Vitus dance, epilepsy, hysteria, and all manner of nervous spasms and convulsions, as well as that nervous irritability which often results in fits. If your infants or children are restless or sleepless, cry out, or grit their teeth at night, they are in great danger of nervous troubles. Give them Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve rem edy. It will make them strong and we'll This remedy is purely vegetable and perfectly harmless for children of any age. It is the discovery of Dr. Greene, of S5 West 14th street, New York City, the most successful special ist in curing nervous and chronic dis eases. He cam be consulted free, per sonally or by letter. Use his great remedy and consult him at any time.
