The rurnn.e of The siIrerites.

On account of the agitation Of the sill
yer question that is now going on in
Texas. the Galveston News has made
very thorough Investigation Of the plans
Of the silverites. The conclusion which
it reaches is that a bold and determined
effort is 10 be made to get control Of the
Democratic party, shape the next ma
tional democratic platform and name the
next national democratic ticket. If that
effort should be failure the siIverites in
the Democratic party Will withdraw from
the party an6 with the populists and the
silverites in the Republican party will
form a silver party. In support Of this
view. the Galveston paper refers to the
records of the Chicago meeting of silver
ties. the secrecy Of the Memphis and
Washington conferences. the circular let
ter now being distributed urging the sid
verites to organize and get ready for 1896.
and to the admissions Of Judge Reagan
and other silverite leaders to the effect
that a bolt Of the silverites from the ma
tional democratic convention next year is
not outside of the bounds Of probability.
Continuing, the Galveston paper says:
The free silver leaders have a scheme
on foot. Their first effort viii be to cap
ture and carry off the Democratic party
In case Of failure I'm this attempt, they
viii quit the organization cold and set up
shop for themselves. The plan is made
The purpose is formed. The boldest of
their leaders do not pretend to deny this.
Under the circumstances II is high time
for sound money democrats to make their
arrangements to meet the insurrectionists
if they hope to save the party and their
cause from populism and from natism."
Doubtless from the Texas standpoint
;he situation appears as the Galveston pa
per presents it. but it seems to us that that
paper shows more anxiety than is justified
by the facts From our point of view, the
free silver movement is on the decline.
We have no doubt that the silverite lead
ers are planning and plotting as vigor-
ously as they ever did. but they haven't
any where near the following they once
had. and what they have is becoming
steadily smaller under prevailing innuen-
ces. All the democratic state conventions
held this year, except that of Mississippi,
have declared against free silver coinage.
The committee Of the New York Chamber
Of Commerce that was appointed some
months ago to conduct a sound money
campaign practically decided few days
ago that the silver movement was no
longer formidable, and that there was no
reason for continuing the fight against
free silver coinage.
Let the silverite leaders plan and plot as
they will, they can accomplish nothing
except their own political destruction.

The cruiser Brooklyn is to have new
smokepipes as high as the masts
on some vessels that said in deep
water. The principal advantage claimed
for the tall pipes is that they will enable
the engineers to do away with the forced
draught, because of the increased chin
ney draught. Forced draught is harm
full to the machinery, and is avoided
whenever possible. The high pipes will
make combustion of fuel more perfect
and rapid, and it is thought win save
also in the matter of the number of boil
ers necessary to be used in order to give
the vessel the speed it is desired that
she shah have. II the tall pipes were
not put in it would be necessary to put
in additional boilers.

Ii Hung Chang IS said to be in Pekin
for the purpose of discussing with the
dowager empress, who seems to be the
real ruler of China, the ACCESSIBILITY of re-
moving the capital to some point further
into the interior. Pekin is too close to the
coast, and too accessible to the ships of
the foreign DEVILS" The ships of the for.
eigners carry guns sometimes, and the
Chinese government is not fond of guns
just at this time.

It is said the democrats Of the Second
congressional district of West Virginia
insist that Hon. William L. Wilson, at
present Postmaster General, shall be their
next candidate for congress. They have
not recovered from the chagrin of defeat
in the last election, and will not be sat
isfied until they have retrieved their lost
position and returned Mr.. Wilson TO the
House. Mr.. Wilson is reported to be not
unwilling to make the race, if his former
constituents desire him TO do so.

AutumnaI Dreams.


When the maple turns to crimson
And the sassafras to goldl
When the gentian's in the meadow
And the asters on the void:
When the moon is wrapped in vapor.
And the night is frosty cold.
When the chestnut burrs are opened,
And the acorns drop like hail
And the drowsy air is startled
With the humping of the fail.
With the drumming of the partridge
And the whistling of the quail
Through the rustling woods wander.
Through the jewels of the year
From the yellow uplands calling
Seeking her that still is dear;
She is near me in the autumn
She, the beautiful. is near.

GOOd-by to POpuIism
From the Valdosta (Ga) Times Oem.).

If there ever was a favorable chance
for the success of populism in Georgia,
that chance was offered in the Tenth dis
trict. The signal defeat of Tom Watson
there last Wednesday. by 1864 majority,
sealed the doom Of that party in Georgia.
His vote fell off in every county in the
district. There were some divisions and
dissatisfactions among the democrats,
and the vote on the democratic side was
light also. But it all goes to show that
populism is dead in Georgia.

Insane Criminals.

DR.. Winslow. the English insanity ex-
pert who claims to have discovered Jack
the Ripper" and to have assisted in hav-
ing him permanently confined in an in
sane asylum. and who is now in this
country on a visit. said the other day
while discussing the famous Jack" and
criminals of his class: There is no such
thing as harmless Iunatic." He has
had long experience with lunatics, and
his investigations have taught him that
a lunatic is never to be trusted. Such per-
sons may appear perfectly harmless for
years, and at last commit the most terri
Bile crimes.
A case illustrating how little trust is to
be placed in insane criminals occurred the
other day in New York Mrs Lizzie
Halliday. whose homicidal mania has
already claimed four victims, and who
was sentenced to death in the electrical
chair, but which sentence was committed
to life Imprisonment because of her
mental arrangement. the other day tried
to brain one of the prison attendants with
a chair.
In the Michigan penitentiary not long
ago an exemplary prisoner who had
killed a man during fit of insanity, had
another similar attack and tried to dash
out the brains of guard with a stool.
Numerous similar instances might be mem
toned. but It is not worth the space to
recount them.
The point to be made is that there
are probably too many harmless" lu-
natics at liberty. Not long ago there was
in this city such a person at liberty
His family and some of his acquaintances
knew of his mental deficiency, but he
was permitted his liberty until he had
taken a life. In another instance an
insane girl was treated as a pauper for a
time, when she should have been sent
to an asylum. The maintenance a
large asylum is very costly. and the send
ing of mentally irresponsible people to
such an institution sometimes sadly hurts
family pride. But there is little room to
question DR.. Wmslow's conclusion, that
there is no such thing as harmless lu-
matte, which suggests that all Inmates
should be under constant and competent
supervision and restraint
The Kingston Daily Cleaner, published
at Kingston, in the Island of Jamaica, re-
publishes the Morning News editorial OF
recent date noting an alleged prescription
of Florida orange trees by the governor OF
Jamaica, and, commenting on it, says the
information upon which it was based is
erroneous. According to the Daily Clean
er, the governor of Jamaica has only taken
steps to see that no plants cuttings, buds
or CRAFTS from Florida orange trees con-
tanning scale bugs or parasites shall be
admitted to the island; all of which is
quite proper. There is, however, neither
room nor necessity for a quarrel between
Florida and Jamaica about oranges. ia
maica raises good fruit, and Florida raises
better. The comparison of excellence is
made upon our own responsibility. The
orange appetite of this country is sufi-
GENTLY keen to want all of the oranges
that both Florida and Jamaica, and CALI
fornia into the bargain, can produce The
quantity of the fruit is not a question
How TO distribute the fruit properly ana
promptly is the problem.
