work. But the makers Of the Nc
Kinley law knew what they were
about. They gave the manufacture
OF tin and terue plate such a firm
footing In the United States that 1t
has continued to grow, although
its growth has been slow since the
enactment OF the Democratic tariff.
Had the Republican party con-
tinued in power there would today
have been no need to import a

Secretary Morton continues to
make an exhibition Of himself,
through his daily newspaper inter-
views on the beef question. He
seriously presents arguments to
prove what everybody has
known from the first-that the
price OF beef was forced up and
kept up by the beef trust, and then
Just as seriously announces his in
ability to do anything to help the
people. Really he is very funny
little man. True, he talks too
much, but his talk amuses the
country, and in these "hard times"
the people need all the free amuse-
ment they can get. His latest in
terview advocates the single gold
standard of finance.
That there are a number OF
hungry Democrats still unprovid-

WASHINGTON LETTER.
by our Regular Correspondent.
WASHINGTON, April %, '95.

WASHINGTON, April %, '95.
Republicans are interested OBJ.
servers of the rumpus in the DEM
ocratic party which Mr.. Cleveland
has stirred up over the silver
question. They have expected for
some time that the Democratic
party would split into silver and
gold factions before the opening of
the presidential campaign, and
those expectations seem now to be
in fair way Of materializing into
facts. They are merely amused by
the chimerical assertions of GER
tain of Mr.. Cleveland's followers,
that the Republican party would
support Mr.. Cleveland on a single
gold standard platform. They
know that not even a small sec
ton Of the Republican party could
under any combination of circum-
stances be brought to support Mr..
Cleveland upon any platform.
They are quite as much amused by
the assertion that the Republican
party, outside of the extreme west
ern states, is gold standard party.
OF course it is needless to say to
any intelligent Republican, and
most Republicans are intelligent,
whether he lives north, east, south
or west, that the Republican party
is not, never has been and is not
likely to be a single standard
party.
The Republican party has, since
the question has been raised, re-
peatedly declared in its national
platform in favor of bi-metalism,
which the Century dictionary thus
defines: "The use Of two metals
as money at relative values set by
legislative enactment; the union of
two metals in circulation as money
at a fixed rate. Specifically, that
system Of coinage which recognizes
both coins of silver and coins Of
gold as legal tender to any amount,
or the concurrent use of coins OF
two metals as circulating me-
dunn at a fixed relative Value.n
There is no indication that the
next Republican national conven-
ton will do otherwise that re.af-
firm that declaration. There is
only one single standard gold
party, and that is the Cleveland
wing of the Democratic party.
Even rock-ribbed Democrats had
to smile when the official an
nounCement was made that the
treasury department would no
longer collect and disseminate
statistics relating to the manufac-
ture Of tin and terne plate in the
United States. The reason was
plain. Every publication of figures
showing the increase of this in.
dustry, which was one OF those
established by the Mckinley tariff
law, was officially giving the lie to
every Democratic editor and stump
speaker who took part in the last
presidential campaign, all Of whom
had declared in the most positive
terms that there was no such thing
as the manufacture of tin and terne
plates for commercial purposes in
the United States, and predicted
that three months after the cleo
ton 1t would be impossible to find

they saw was enough to freeze the

said during that first part has passed

The front curtain was lowered at in

audience was too tired to leave from

In the last issue OF THE COMET a
typographical error occurred in the
advertisement of the Bee Hive by
which they were made to price Clark
O N. T. spool cotton at five cents.
This should have been four cents, and
in making the correction we do not
think it out OF place to state that this
firm has established a reputation for
straightforward dealing second to
none, and THE COMET regrets that it
has been the means, although unin-
tentionally, OF placing them in the at
titude OF raising the price on stan.
dard article. The correction is cheer
fully made.
