Senator Stewart has become complete
monomaniac on the subject of silver.
His language Is of the rambling and in
coherent order. He is not confined to
realms of truth in his harangues Re-
ferring to one of his recent addresses in
Kentucky the New York Morning Advcr
tiser says:
Reiterates the stock free silver clap
trap about the "crime of 1878" having
destroyed silver as primary money" or
redemption money" This is not only
untrue but the Nevada senator must
know it to be untrue. This country never
contained SO much silver money Of final
payment" as it does today.
The act of 1873 stopped the coinage of
silver as legal tender money only for the
time being In 1878 another law was On
acted which restored silver by making it
an unlimited legal tender, and under that
law and the Sherman act, which was
passed in 1890, over $50, 900, 900.

Flatterinq Prospect Of a City Building.

The project of suitable city building
Is flattering. 1t has thus far re-
ceived only commentator The need of
city building has long been apparent to
all acquainted with the city's affairs, but
tho debt limit has hitherto stood in the
way. However, the need of an armory
has become Of late positive necessity,
one that aroused renewed interest in the
matter of city building. The armory
must be had or the city would be in fair
way to incur the loss of the benefits ac
cruing from holding the annual muster at
this place. The city had the land or near
ly enough for such purpose Then
prominent men in the community turned
their attention to the matter and outlined
a plan whereby the city might provide
tho necessary accommodations for its MILL
tia company and at the same time furn
ish tho city with needed quarters, also
a hall for convention purposes and large
nssemblages. They showed how this could
be done at an annual expenditure but lit
tie in excess of that now required for rem
tails. The prompt meeting Of the city gov
eminent and the number Of prominent
citizens who appeared before 1t Saturday
evening all served to demonstrate that the
general plan is feasible one and Is
approved. A hall sufficiently large for an
armory will be big enough to accommo-
date the largest state conventions. For
years Augusta had been favorite place
for holding political conventions. Being
the capital of the State and centrally To-
Gated 1t will continue to be what it was

Augusta by reason of it's central location
and accessibility is the most suitable place
of any in the State for holding large con-
ventions of all kinds. The benefits thus
accruing to the city indirectly as well as
directly are not inconsiderable. While
the city council and city treasurer already
have commodious quarters they would
have equally as good in the new building
