THE New STATE GUARD.-Brigadier
General James M. Ashton, comman.
der of the First Brigade N. G. of
Washington has rendered his resigna-
ton to Gov. McGraw, alleging as q
reason that his time is so much alb.
sorbed by private business he cannot
find time to attend to the duties of
the Office. The Governor, it is an.
nounced, will not name his successor,
until a reorganization of the guard,
under the new law, which provides for
the appointment OF all officers in
stead OF election by the members.

CUBA IN A FERMENT.-Cuba is in
q state of instruction over an order
from the Captain General demanding
military service from the people to
put down the insurgents. It requires
that all men drafted between the
years 1892 and 1894. and who are now
enrolled in the militia, shall present
themselves for duty within eight days
to be assigned to regular regiments
for service. Those who fail to appear
are to be tried as deserters and shot.
The MALTA openly refuse to obey the
order, some claiming that enrolment
in the militia exempts them from
compulsory service in the regular
army; others claim it as a right to
serve in their own regiments and un.
der their present officers, and will re-
sist all efforts to deprive them of this
privilege. 1t is thought that if the
order is not revoked or modified, a
general revolt will take place and the
present rulers be entirely deposed.

ton Tor the laborer and protection for

oil The tree, unlimited and independent
coinage OF silver, and it will protect
the people from the dishonor OF repu.
diation."
There is the leaven which has per
meated the Republican party from its
organization to the presel T. time. 1t
Is the outgrowth OF the Id Federal
party which adhered to tn, monarchial
idea that there were tw, classes OF
people under every form OF govern
ment, one fitted to rule and the other
TO serve; one composed oil the better
CLASSES" III the communicable clergy
OF all denominations, the most noted
lawyers and the wealthies: merchants,
as III contradistinction TO the day
laborer and the man OF small means.
1t was this remnant of aristOcratic
Ideas that suggested the means for
protecting interests controlled by the
veal thier classes. 1t is this trait Of
monarchial feeling which to-day IT.
resistibly impels one-half OF our people
to favor anything which tends to
widen the line OF demarkation between
the millionaire and the plodder. An
old-time Federalist, or an old.line
Wing, or his descendant, is as sure to
gravitate towards the Republican party
to-day, as the twing is to grow into
the form in which it has been en-
twined.
The Republican party favors gold
because it is the money of that bet
ter class" who under a kingly form
OF government would constitute the
nobility. 1t is just as natural for that
party to cringe to the power of wealth
as it is for the spaniel to fawn at the
feet OF his master; and with all the ar
rogance of u pampered pet it loses no
opportunity of showing its fangs when
ever a mastiff of another breed crosses
his pathway.
That this is the controlling incen-
tive is shown by the precision and
unanimity with which they favor
every policy that can be measured by
this motive. Take, for instance, the
career Of the Oregonian. See how
quickly it condemned the income tax
and how persistently it fought the bill
when before Congress, and with what
glee it announced it's repeal by the Su-
preme Court! Is it ever at variance
with anything which favors capital!
Has it ever shown q heart-throb in
support of those in the greatest need
of sympathy-the poor people? Is it
not an abiect exponent of the selfish.
ness and greed of its party?
1t is by no means a cause for sur.
prise that the Republican party in
Kentucky, or any other State, should
advocate q currency which enables
capital to double its earnings from
loans at time when money can COM
mand rates that are much higher than
its commercial value. 1t is in keep
ing with a trait that being "born in
the bone is bred in the flesh"

Illinois Democracy Sound y

Ihc Democrats ii Illinois, in a
STATE Convention held al Springfield,
on Ike 9TH instant, declared unequiv.
ocaiiy in favor OF an equality OF silver
with gid, without waiting Tor the
action OF other nations on the matter.
The proceedings az the convention
were deliberate and calm, but marked
with intense enthusiasm.
TX Representative VIM. J. Bryan,
Of Nebraska made the leading speech
He declared that No man who 'ayors
the gold standard can talk Ui himetal-
Ism and hr honest Ii the double
standard i night. then mono
mctailism is crime against society,"
The American people, he declared,
might Just as we'll have an English
general at the head of our army, or
an English Admiral at the head Of our
navy, as an English bank at the head
OF the Treasury Department"
Gov. Altgcld said that is well to
realize that the fight has but just be-
gun. The powers against a coinage
that has been so effective ever since
the Government was established, are
powers not to be despised. CONSOLE
dated wealth is against us. The fash
iOnable drawing-room will be against
us. The daily papers will be against
us, the bankers, and every man who
makes a living off of Others will be
against us. To succeed against such
a mighty power will require a union of
the people. Division will be fatal.
This is the hope of the gold power.
1t is their only hope, and their only
means of success.
Judge Mcconnell, in a vigorous
speech, stated the necessity of action
by the party at this time, in the fol-
lowing terse sentences: "This con-
vention has most peculiar and a
most important significance. Hereto
fore managers of political parties have
SO arranged that party politics should
be declared only at the time candi.
dates were chosen and only little
while before the gathering OF the rep
resentatives of the people. The result
has been often that our conventions
have put forth a mere assertion OF
general principles and on live issues
have expressed themselves in meaning
less compromises, while colorless can
didates have been presented to the
people, or candidates unsympathetic
with the real purpose of the party.
This convention marks a departure
and is intended not only to allow free
discussion before the next political en-
gagement, but to define our party's
position with distinctness and definite
ness, so that no voters shall fail to un.
derstand them and no candidate, if
chosen to Office, have chance or ex-
cuse for the defeat of our commands -

ANOTHER SAN FRANCISCO HORROR
San Francisco seems to be under .
dark cloud from the number of afro
cious and mysterious crimes that have
been committed within her boundaries
during the past few weeks. The EN-
manuel church horrors had hardly
lost their absorbing interest, before a
woman was murdered by being COM
PEELED to swallow strychine pill in q
grave yard, and now comes the har-
rowing details of brutal murder in q
tenement house, under the most re-
markable surroundings of mystery.
The victim, in this instance, is Miss
Nellie Harrington, q spinster OF unex-
ceptional character who was mur.
dered last Saturday at midday, in her
room, with many people within q few
feet of the tragic occurrence, and with
out the slightest clue as to the perpe-
traitor of the crime. After the murder,
fire was set to her clothing, and it was
the escape of smoke through the crew.
ices of the door that led to discovery
of the crime. Another strange Sc
quence was in the injury of Senator
Buck, an intimate acquaintance of
Miss Harrington, while he was being
driven from his residence in Oakland
to the Office of the Chief of Police in
San Francisco. 1t seem that lie was
thrown from the carriage and sus-
tanned injuries that it is feared will
will prove fatal. 1t was hoped that
the Senator might be able to give
some information regarding the de-
ceased that would afford clue to the
perpetrator of the crime. So far the
police have absolutely made no head
way in solving the mystery.

4 RESULT OF CNwARRANrED GLEN
E%'Y.-A legitimate result OF the con-
duct OF Gov. Altgeld in pardoning SO
many hardened criminals, is the hang
ing Of two young men ut Danville,
IL, on tho 18th ult., charged with
outraging Miss Laura Barnett and
Mis- Lillian Draper. The evidence
wa- conclusive, being afforded 10y the
victims, and the reputation of the as
>ailants was unsavorv, but they would
undoubtedly have been accorded a
trial in court had it not been for the
unfortunate state OF popular senti-
ment resulting from the peculiar
views of the executive regarding all
classes OF malefactors. When the
mob took the prisoners from Jail, Judge
Bookwalter addressed them in tell
ing speech, counseling adherence to
legal methods. 1t produced some eff
icct, Tor a time, but finally one OF the
leaders said: Yes, we know that the
jury will convict them and give them
a severe sentence, but Governor Alt
geld will pardon them. He recently
pardoned three brutes you sent up
from Champaign county for twenty
years. II any other man than Altgeld
WAS governor we would not lynch
these men but We are determined he
will never have chance to turn them
loose" Therefore the mob, COM
posed of thousands Of people, mostly
farmers, battered down the doors, took
the men forth and hung them. The
stability of law is based upon an i'm
partial administration that commands
the confidence of the people.
