SURROUNDING COUNTRY

The pipe to the engine in the whale
back Columbus, burst on Saturday night
while the boat was on its way to Chicago.
As a result two men were scalded to
death and twelve were so seriously
injured that some will die. The widest
confusion prevailed among the passen-
gers who say the boat was racing with
the Virginia. The officers deny this. but
as the Virginia passed the Columbus the
general belief is the boats were racing.
The Columbus had 10 pounds of steam
on at the time of the explosion. The
Virginia had no trouble in passing her
rival and the latter had better accept the
verdict which has been reached at the
cost Of lives.
Laborers employed in building an ex-
tension of street railway tracks IN Mil

TaE Cleveland convention was pam
fully silent on the monetary question.
T. was purposely so because 1t was too
cogardly to express an opinion. For
long time republican newspapers have
been INVITING democrats with devotion
to the silver interests. There was no
denial that many democrats do favor free
coinage. Il Is equally true that those
most prominent and Outspoken 10 favor
II honest money are democrats. They
have the courage of their cOnyltIons and
are not attempting &c carry water on
both shoulders. \ democratic convention
which would act as the republican con-
ycntion at Cleveland did, would be un-
sparingly denounced bV these democrats.
People have been looking for some
positive, and authoritative utterance OF
the republican party on this leading issue
of the day. But they are not to be graft
jed It is not certain yet which Is the
stronger side. When that fact Is definitely
aacertaiued, there will be no uncertainty
10 the uJterance Of the republican party.
shout with the mob, was the advice
of diplomat. But il there are two?
was the anxious inquiry of the seeker for
counsel. Shout with the larger was
the counsel given. The republican party
aus been trained N this school OF dIplo-
macy. The expression good politics" IS
descriptive OF this method Of watching
which way the cat jumps.
But what OF the papers which have
been pointing with pride to the &C.
7otion to principle which the republican
oarty has displayed? This cowardly sur
render without striking a blow receives
10 aaimadversions. Are the thundeIt
Of God dumb? Is this consistency? is
this the way to preserve the influence o.
| lie press? 4 few vigorous words o
cersure by the party press might give
| The party little backbone.

1t is said to be quite probable that
Germany will call for an international
monetary conference the coming fall. It
is reasonably certain that conference
of such a nature would result IN an
agreement which would remove a dis
turbiug question in the financial world.
England would not now be so ayerse to
restoration OF the functions of silver SIS

she has been. Silver will never be used
to any great eXtentIn carrying on foreign

THE free coinage men argue that scar
city of money is responsible for the low
price Of farm produce and by means of
this argument have gained the support
of many engaged in agricultural pursuits
Is there any farmer who has noticed
any scarcity Of the circulating medium
if he had ANYTHING to give in exchange
for it? People who produce nothing find
money scarce. The money market is
pretty tight for those who do not choose
to live on their own industry.

many foolish limitations imposed by
custom on woman's activity, he cannot
fail to perceive that going TO the opposite
extreme is no remedy. Women cease 10
