as completely upon q gold basis, anu
then refused at the president's REQUEST
to make outstanding obligations payable
in gold. It passed a tariff bill which
made large reductions IN our tariff, put
many articles on the free list, repealed
sugar bounty, and then passed bills civ.
ing large subsidies to a steamship COM
pany. At the diCtstlon and request OF
the PopuliSt party, though few in num-
Der, it passed an income tax, that was Bt
one time in the Populist platform. It
passed bill which practically repealed
all legislation restraining the greed Of
railroad corporations, giving them ths
right to pool their interest. IL had q
large democratic me- jority, and yet passed
resolution indOrsing the presidents sc-
ton in sending troops to Chicago in the
railroad strike, which violated every tra-
dition Of the democratic party, In ro-
gard to state rights; and also passed
bill to secure arbitration between rail-
roads and employees, on the plea that IL
was in the interest Of labor. Il COM
msnced it's flrst session in complete Ro-
belliOn against the administration and
took every opportunity to show its hos-
tility. Perhaps, taking 1t all in all, it
showed higher average Of intelligence
than many Of its predecessors. The stu
dent Of history in years to come will pur-
sue the record Of the Fifty-third con-
Rrsss with interest and trust with soms
profit. II has gone to take it's place
beside others that have preceded IL and
I believe the verdict Of impartial history
will be that it was as good a congress %
could be selected from people who RoE
hundreds OF years have devoted NEARLY
oil their time and energy in pursuit Of
the mighty dollar. 1t was better, per-
haps great deal better, than the people
1t represented, as others have been who

casm he detailed the address OF the sill
YER democrats issued last Friday. He
commended the bold, courageous and
manly action Of those who had signed
the address, but rsbuksd some Of them
for already looking with favor on q
proposition to 90 abroad for a further
consultation.
Mr.. Springer called Mr.. PsnCs's atten-
tion to the fact that this proposition Por
q conference had emRnRted from the
silver men in the senate, not from the
gold men.
Mr.. Hepburn favored the proposition
for conference. At 8 time when the
great gold countries OF the world were
showing the first symptoms Of q "a svor-
able sentiment toward silver, he ex-
pressed his surprise that svOWed friends
Of silver like Mr.. Pence and Mr.. Simp.
son should oppose propositions for an
international monetary conference.
By q neat parliamentary msneuVsr
Mr.. Cannon got the floor st this point
and yielded his time to Mr.. Sayers, who
Immediately cut off debate by demand
ing the previous question. The confer.
enoe report was adopted and the Sundry
civil bill was out Of the way so far as the
house was concerned.

Silver Democrats.

WASHINGTON, March "A meeting Of
members OF the American BimetslliC
league, which has been in progress here
during the past two weeks, will soon
issue an address to the American peo.
pie asking their support for a new
party having the principal plsnks Of
it's platform the free and unlimited
coinage Of silver at the ratio of 16
to /, and demand that the money Of
the country shall be issued by the gov
ernment ITSELF.
The address will insugurRtO new
feature in American politics by doing
away with the old system of nominating
conventions. 1t will call upon the peo.
pie themselves to nominate candidates
for the Office OF president and vice prssi.
dent by petition. It is argued that dele
gates to nominating conventions do not
always represent the views and wishes OF
the people sending them, and it has
therefore been decided that the people
themselves in their own names shall for
once name their candidates.
The address will also place in nomins.
ton Joseph @. Slbley, Of Franklin, Pa,
whose term Rs representative in con.
gress from the Twenty-siXth district OK.
pired to-day. Mr.. SiblsY declined to
run for reelection llast fall, preferrlng
to retire to private life, and it was only
at the urgent and persistent solicitation
Of the members Of the conference that
he consented to head the movement for
8 new silver party. The league has had
in conference here during the last two
weeks the leading silver men from
twenty.four states and territories, and
the decision to ask the voters of the
country to lay aside their allegiance to
the old parties until the silver fight had
been won was arrived at with much con-
sultstion with the silver leaders Of the
country.

Hope From the Cities.

In Chicago the Populists have noml-
mated city ticket headed by DR.. Bay.
ard Holmes for mayor, and have shown
q very progressive spirit in sheir convsn-
tion. The professional politicians were
in hopeless minority and the result
was platform Of which the following 70
the substance:
We adhere TO the Omaha platform OnO
and indiVisible.
We renew She declaration made at She
Springfield conference and ratified ab the
Uhlrioh's hall convention, which in the Last

invite the citizens of Chicago, regardless OF
party affiliations in national elections, 10
join with US TO make Chicago free city
free Of dirt, Doodle and monopOly-fPeo 10
use the common powers for Che common
good, and free to ft itself for its future
place at the head Of the cities Of the world.
To this end we pledge our candidates for
