there never was a time in the history of
the world when the workingman received
more good dollars for the same amount
of labor than he receives now in this
country. Any policy which reduces the
value of this dollar on the day it is
earned or on the day it is expended, by
diminishing the purchasing power in
the markets, has precisely the same
effect upon the holder as if the amount
paid for his labor were reduced. If,
therefore, the favorite argument of the
advocates of free coinage-that the free
coinage of silver at the ratio OF 16 to l
would be double the price of all pro-
ducts-is correct, the wages of the labor.
ing man would purchase under that
system only one-half what they purchase
now. This would undoubtedly be the
case unless wages should also be
doubled, which, according to the uni
form experience of the past, is a most
improbable thing. For more than a
quarter of a century the working people
of the United States have struggled
earnestly and persistently, through their
labor organizations and otherwise, to
increase their wages to a point which
would enable them to live decently and
comfortably by expanding their earn
ings for commodities at their present
prices, and how long do you think they
would have to struggle in the future to
raise their wages to a point which would
enable them to purchase the same arti-
Giles when their prices have been doubled?
No man in this audience will live to see
such a result accomplished, and the
laborlng man who supports the Efree
coinage of deprecated silver dollars
must be content to live and support his
family upon what deprecated silver dol
lars will buy. My position upon this
subject is that when the laborer receives
a dollar on account of his wages he has
a right to be assured that it will pur-
chase as much in the market as any
other mans dollar, or if he desires to Law
it up for use in a time of need he has q
right to be assured that it will he worth
as much when he wants to spend it as it
was worth on the day he earned it,"

Hon. WALTER G. GRESHAM is dead.
He was born at Corydon, Ind, March
II, 1888, and was therefore g. years of
age last March. He was a graduate of
Bloomington university, studied law,
aud at the breaking out of the war in
1861 he enlisted in the Union army and
served until 1865. At its close he was a
brevet major general. After the war he
settled at New Albany. Ind, and resumed
the practice of law. In 1883 he was ap-
pointed postmaster general by President
Arthur, and secretary of the treasury by
President Hayes in 1884, which Office he
resigned the same year to accept the ap-
pointment of United States circuit court
judge of the Seventh judicial circuit,
which position he held until 1892, when
he resigned to accept the position of
secretary of state in President Cleve-
lands cabinet. Mr.. Gresham had been
a republican up to the time of his ap.
pointment to a cabinet position by
President Cleveland, and IN 1883 was a
prominent candidate for the republican
nomination for the presidency. As a
judge, the decision which gave him most
prominence was known as the "bucket
brigade decision" The question under
consideration was the order of payment
by employers of a railroad company in
the hands of a receiver. He decided
that section hands who went out with
their dinner pals and worked should be
first paid, and in doing so used the Ian
guage which gave him prominence as a
judge whose sympathies we're with the
laboring man. He said "pay the bucket
brigade first" As secretary of state he
has not been that pronounced success
his admirers had hoped to see him. On
the whole, the foreign policy of the ad-
ministration has been weak and vacil-
lating. The brightest page of his his
tory will ever be recorded as a soldier.
Peace to his ashes.

abandonment of precedents. Grand
%juries, for example, are abolished, except
in special circumstances, information
takes the place of indictment, and the
trial jury is to consist of eight instead of
twelve persons, three-fourth of whom
may render a verdict in civil cases, UNI
animlty being required to convict of
crime. The assumption that polgamy
was dead, upon which assumption con-
sent to the admission of Utah as a state
was tinally given, is justified by the per-
manent prohibition Of plural marriages.
One of the features which has been the
subject of most ardent discussion is the
provision granting woman suffrage, it
being claimed by the opponents of the
proviso that it will give the state into
the control OF the Mormons. This ques-
ton will make the campaign for the
adoption or rejection of the constitution
an exciting if not a bitter one.

REVIEW Table

The Art Amateur for May has two
charming color plates-"The Watering
Place." by ]. Peyrol Bonheur, and "Deco-
rative Groups," after Boucher. There
are the usual eight large pages Of prac-
teal working designs for Woodworking,
typography, china painting and needle
work. The number itself is especially
n for the young illustrator. Besides q
lesson on "Drawing for Reproductions"
by Ernest Knaufft, there are many fine
examples Of the mastery work Of Daniel
Verge.
In his department OF "The Progress Of
the World" for May the editor Of the
Review of Reviews sums up the signi6-
cant events Of the month preceding.
Prominent topics thus treated are the
income tax decision, the Chicago election
and the triumph of civil service reform,
the Cuban revolt, the Venezuelan
boundary issue, and the British claim in.
Nicaragua. The editor makes some in
teresting comments on recent progress
in the south, notably illustrated by rail
road and other industrial development
in Florida, the Improvement of various
southern harbors, the enforcement of
South Carolina liquor law, and other en-
couraging signs.
Many interesting things about Francis
Scott Key-the author of the sStar
Spangled Banner"-are contained in a
pamphlet which may be obtained free
from the Key Monument Association of
Frederick City, Maryland, by sending
2 cent stamp for postage. This asso-
citation is raising funds for a suitable
monument to the poet, and they suggest
that in the schools and everywhere, upon
or before Flag day June 14), this sub
ject be suitably recognized. Contribu-
tions, however small, are asked for.
Every one who loves the flag ought to
have some small share in building this
monument. The governor of Maryland
has strongly indorsed the movement.
The names Of all contributors will be
preserved in the crypt of the monument,
and published without amount) in the

WHAT THE DEFENDANTS SAY.
w. III. Holmes, one of the directors
was seen and said, no papers had yet
been served on himself and colleagues.
He considers the whole matter In the
light Of n huge joke, and was not dis
posed to discuss 1t seriously. He sale:
"The company does not deuy having
received the money on the mortgage,
which was used to pay debts incurred
by the now complainant and which
debts he contracted himself in his own
operations. 1t has committed no
crime against McMahon except to pay
his debts and II Is not through with
that yet"
II. j. Bigger is acting as attorney for
Mr.. Mcmahon ia the suit. The plain
tifis will probably retain Mr.. Blng-
ham.
Mr.. Fletcher was seen at his office.
He treated the whole matter very
philosophically. He said that he had
no connection with the office when the
debts were contracted for which the
mortgage was given. But he did know
that mortgage was given, that 1t was
purchased by him from the mortgage
that he bought the establishment for
the purpose Of saving If possible what
he had foolishly invested In IL at Nc.
Mahon's request, and also for paying
other debts incurred by the former
management, and II possible securlu g
something out Of the wreck for the
stockholders. Neither Mr.. Strong, Mr..
Cline nor anyone else have any interest
in the paper-he being the sole owner.
He had paid out the 81 ,2o0 raised by
mortgage, and has been paying the
debts of the old management ever
since, aud is not done paying them
yet. There IL no such amount as %, 900

UNToRTUNATE ACCIDENT. - Paul

little Of the debts Of the old manage
ment were ever collected, as there was
very little to collect, In reading over
the statement as published above. he
said he failed to find one correct state
ment from beginning TO end, and he
was glad that the affair was coming
before the courts, 80 that the pu bile
would learn the truth about the whole
matter. When he bought the Inde-
pendent, everything was confusion.
There were no books, few minutes
nothing but debt and chaos. "I have
had a hard struggle of it," said Mr..
Fletcher "but have brought order out
of chaos, paid my bills, gave the people
good paper, and liquidated many of
the bills incurred by my predecessor"
Mr.. Strong says; al put up nearly
$4,000 and got tired. So we turned it
over to rai'e money TO get out of debt.
The money was up to help McMahon
run a paper and he had the sole
control until II was taken away from
him. He went through with nearly
SIC. 900 IN ten months. He turned In
his plant TO us at $4,000 when he did
not own IL at all-it was the property
Of Matt Brown and others. In this
lawsuit he has everything to gain and
nothing to lose because he put nothing

Among other things Mr.. Lee said that
