Dormant Public Sentiment.
From the Sunday News.1

Again we return to the performance of
a sacred duty by admonishing the people
of Sacramento that no contemporaneous
subject is fraught with SO much direct
and immediate interest to them as the hy-
draulic mining question. If we expect
to have city here the monitors must be
stopped and the dam tallacy checked
forthwith. The apathy of the people is
appalling on this subject Let US hope
that it will not take disastrous flood to
waken the dormant public sentiment

SENATOR MORGAN, OF Alabama, has
accepted an invitation to head the
party of distinguished Democratic
speakers who are to be sent upon q
missionary tour of the West and
Northwest by the national association
of Democratic clubs, similar to that
sent cut by the same association four
years ago, which was 80 successful in
arousing the interest of Democrats in
club work, which proved a consider
able factor in the Democratic victory
OF 1892. The party will leave Wash
ington about August "A, going via
Buffalo, New York, through the
Great Lakes to Duluth, Minnesota,
where the first meeting is to be held.
The route from there will be through
the Dekotas into Montana, through
the Yellowstone Park, Idaho and
Washington, the schedule being so
arranged that the party can take part
in the annual meeting OF the Demo.
cratic Society of Washington. They
will then go through Oregonw and
Utah and continue as far west as San
Francisco. The homeward bound trip
will take in New Mexico, Nevada.
Colorado, Nebraska and Missouri. The
party expects to be on the road about
six weeks. These missionary tours
under the auspices OF the ASSOCIATION
of Democratic clubs are not in the in
terest Of any individual, but solely Of
The party. In fact, the association OF
Democratic clubs would find it i'm
possible to boom any individual, as by
its constitution it only meets once in
every four years and then always after
the party has made its presidential
nomination. 1t booms the party, anC

SILVER bullion is now quoted at
6714 cts. an ounce, which is four cents
higher than it was one year ago, and
treasury officials believe that it will go
higher, on account OF the Chinese
demand for silver to pay Japan the
war indemnity, which at the present
price of silver will require in the
neighborhood of $148.000000 of bull
lion, The demand for silver to meet
the general expenses of China and
Japan in the later war is estimated to
have already reduced the available
stock of private silver bullion in the
United States to considerably less
than 100000 ounces. The Govern
ment has, of course, a much greater
amount than that, but the bullion own
ed by the Government isn't in the
market and is not likely to be, GER
tainly not for some time to come, as
Congressional legislation would have
to be secured to sell it, if such was the
desire Of the Government.
