TIE idea advanced by gold bugs that our silver dollars are maintained at par by reason of the gold reserve, and that in it's absence, they would be worth nothing more than so much bull lion, is ridiculous. It has never been dreamed of redeeming them in gold, and until the helish pollcy was an- nounce of paying all obligations in gold at the option of the creditor, no such backing can be said to have ex- isted. Why then were our silver dol. lars, at par before this, and why have they always been at para Because under the law they are legal tender for all debts. public and private, except where otherwise expressly stipulated in a contract, because 94 Ter cent of the business. of this country is domestic because the balances of trade have nearly always been in our favor, and because the American people are back of them. They are the dollars of our daddies." They are the peoples money, and 80 long as the people want them and hold them in esteem they will re- main. at pan.

DEMOCRATS who champion gold monOmetallism grow fewer in number every day. What few there aye belong to, the class known as leaders. The country is, large. Many leaders are nequired. Business for them has mul- tiplied beyond their reasonable ex- Rectation. The crop of leaders has been exhausted The doctrine is in sore need of leaders. It is pressed for them. In fact, we may say, it is hard up' for leaders, It must surely be in d. bad way when it's is compelled to call upon Henry NJ. Cooper, of Little Rock to take charge of its destiny in Arkansas, and putting. him in con- maDd, expect him to marshal or corral
 he democratic free silver hosts and turn. them in the direction of mono metallism. This seems to be the pro- yramme. At least we acknowledge receipt of a circular letter from our distinguished pet-bagger republican friend requesting the publication of aa article erroneously entitled Facts About Free Coinage, How it will Aff ct the Farmer and the Workingman. !" For: the sake cf variety. and because this article covers. the. whole argument ot the gold monometallisti in d unt shell We have concluded to reproduce it, and 1t may be seen elsewhere in these col ums., Many of the vagaries of this vague question, from q. gold stapdard standpoint, have, in our plain, unyar- nisLed way, been explained and refuted ip, these columns.

In the Nation and the state. has been consistently
the party OF true reform and progress.
We urge the community hot 70 be blinded by the
presentation OF any lesser issue than the fact that
the great question before the people now is. as II
was last year. "ShaI Tammany rue New-York?'
And believe that the fullest negaton TO the prop
ostion vii be given If the peope OF this city shall
endow the Republican party with full power TO pre-
vent Il.
The ticket presented by the united opponents
of Tammany Hall is the net result Of four days
of conferences, consultations and continuous
labor on the part OF the nominating committee
appointed by the Republican County Conven-
ton last Thursday evening and the representa-
tves Of the other bodies named. Such a d.
versity Of opinion prevailed at the beginning OF
these conferences. and extended through nearly
the whole period during which they were car
red on that there were many prophecies OF
failure with the result OF straight tickets to be
nut up by the different political organizations
represented.
The key Of the situation appeared to the lead
ing conferrees to be the excise plank, and 10 the
solving Of this problem Mr.. Lauterbach for the
Republicans; Seth Low. Charles Stewart Smith,
Gustav H. Schwab and their associates for the
Chamber Of Commerce, and Charles S. F'airchild.

their
oswald Ottendorfer and his friends Of the Ger

the state Democracy was adopted by the Repub-
l,can Convention the difficulties in the way be-
gan to disappear The formation Of ticket thsn
became easier. and great was taken to select
men of high character and conspicuous fitness for
all the places.
or the ten candidates placed in nomination
seven are Republicans. and the rest are members
Of the state Democracy. Neither the OBrien nor
the Stecklcr Democracy received any recognition,
but the excise plank it was asserted, would have
the effect to prevent either OF these organizations
from opposing the ticket or making common
cause with Tammany Hall.
THE REPUBLICAN CONVENTION.
The Republican Convention met at Lyric Hall
last evening. pursuant TO adjournment and'
though most Of the delegates reinforced by crowds
OF shouters were early in their places. 1t was after
. p. m before Alexander +. Mason. the permanent
chairman, called the meeting to order. The in
terim was devoted to discussions Of the reported
agreement OF the Nominating Committee on
fusion ticket. This gave the whoopers-up OF a
straight ticket who made up the delegates In sew
eral Of the machine Assembly districts an OPP
nortunlty to bluater and tell how they would go
down nghting for straight Republican ticket"
and nothing short of it.
So completely had some Of the machine followers
been educated up to this idea that 1t seemed at
one time as if there might be something Of an
opposition to the plan.
