The Elements Between Which the
Republicans Are on the Finan-
Dial Question.

"Neither of the great political
parties can afford to ignore the sill
yer issue in the next presidential
campaign. 1t will overshadow the
tariff and cast it into the background"
This decisive statement was made by
President Andrews of Brown u%niver-
sity. Mr.. Andrews was one of the
representatives. of the United States
in the last international monetary
conference and he prefaced his con-
versation by the remark: ~ was

cans will be forced to declare for

votes" asked the reporter. 'No,
indeed" was the reply, shut they
must make some concessions to sill
yer. They must pledge themselves
to strike for an international agree
ment, or even promise more than
that. | do not think the time has
come for this country to take the in

with the cellar, you climb the cellar
stairs and lock the cellar door with

parlor floor, the kitchen, dining room,
and so on, and the last thing on that
floor is to carefully lock the front

be remembered that grains are large

A Chance For Silver.

The London Standard says: "Silver
was in good demand owing to the
that Japan's terms for peace
with China stipulated for the open
ing of a large section of China to
foreign trade. 1t is believed this
will lead to an increased demand for
silver in the east"

A CONFERENCE IS CALLED.
Our Excellent Governor Is Awake to
the Great Emergency.

Gov. Richards has inaugurated an
educational campaign on the silver
question, in line with plans formulat-
ed by himself and Hon. Thos. G.
Merrill. The intention is to place
bimetallic literature in the hands Of
the voters throughout the union, this
course being deemed more effective
than any other plan of reaching the
intellect and conscience of the citi-
zen. The governor has arranged
for a conference to perfect an organ
i~zation, which will be held in Salt
Lake City May 10. He has sent the
following letter to the governors of
California, Oregon, Washington,
Nevada, Idaho, Wyoming, Utah,
Arizona, New Mexico and Colorado:

Hon. Thos. G.. Merrill, of this city.

Lake Tribune and has been repro
duced in a number of the leading
journals in the silver states. | trust

a careful perusal, with particular re-
ference to the plans paoposed for an
educational campaign on the silver
issue. They meet my hearty appro-
val. After due consideration prom
inent men in this and other states
have determined to act along the
lines suggested, and you are urged
to cooperate with us for the common
good. | would respectfully request
that you name three gentlemen to
represent your state at a conference
to be held in Salt Lake City, May Is.
for the purpose of %perfecting an Or

voters now ignorant of the merits Of
the question. 1t is to be hoped that
only such delegates will be appoint

ference will be composed wholly of
men who favor free coinage at the
ratio of rs to one, without reference
to international conferences and who
have the ability to plan and the cour'
age to act for the best interests of al
our people. The forthcoming con.
ference will be strictly non-partisar

public upon the merits of the bi

WE HEARTILY endorse the follow

WI HEARTILY endorse the follow
ing sentiment expressed by an un-
known exchange: "Remember this,
young man. Be careful how you
speak of a woman's character. Think
how many years she has been build
ing it, of the tolls and privations en-
dured, of the Wounds received, and
let no suspicion follow her affections.
The purity of woman is the salvation
of the race, the hope of future great
ness, the redemption of man. Wipe
out her purity and man sinks beneath
the wave of despair, with not a star
to guide his life into a channel of
safety. Think then before you speak
and remember that any hog can
root up the fairest flower hat ever
grew, so the vilest mar may ruin the
purest woman's character"

BUSINESS HUMMING.

The o. r. r. R. Has All 1t Can Handle.
The Ohio River Railroad is now
enjoying the largest freight and
passenger business in its history.
This is the result ofthe policy now
being so successfully carried out of
reaching out for through business at
connecting points. The road is be-
ing put in splendid condition, tres
ties filled and all needless switches
being taken out. The two forty
five mile passenger trains called the
"West Virginia Flyers" which
make connection with C. & o. fast
flyers, are already doing heavy
passenger business and especially in
through travel. The geographical
position of the road is such that it is
bound to be sooner or later, and
sooner than many think, through
trunk line from Pittsburg to Gin
cinnati and points south.
What is being done on passenger
travel is also being done on freight
and the increased through freight is
taxing the present equipment to its
utmost. To illustrate: On the 21st
there were All car loads of freight
moved, all of which originated with
in twenty-four hours along the line
of the road and at it's connections.
On Sunday "a car loads of stock
and pcrishable freight were deliver
ed at Wheeling and taken to Pitts
burg by 5 p. m. These loads start
ed on the o. R. r. r. at 8 p. m.
Saturday.
The local business continues
heavy and the through business is
growing very rapidly.-State Jour

A LIVELY ROW
Between the Columbus Hooking Valley
& Toledo Railway and the Kanawha 6
Michigan Company.

Between the Columbus Hooking Valley
& Toledo Railway and the Kanawha 6
Michigan Company.
COLUMBUS, o, July 2+-The c..
II. Y. & #. Railway Company in
this city has brought suit to restrain
tho Kanawha & Michigan road,
which is operated by the Toledo &
Ohio Central Company, from carry
ing passengers and freight between
Pomeroy, Middleport and Gallipolis.
1t is asserted that under a contract
between the two roads for the joint
use of tracks between the two cities,
the K. & N. is prevented from car
rying through business over the
joint track, and can only carry
passengers from points on the track
destined to stations not reached by
the Hooking Valley road. The
purpose of the agreement is to pro.
tect the business of the Hooking
road, but the petition charges that
in the present instance it will be
violated. Judge Pugh, of Columbus,
has granted a temporary restrain
ing order. The T. & o. c. has been
doin big river excursion business,
and an excursion advertised for
Sunday was stopped by the injunc-
ton proceedings. A lively row is
promised as result of this dilema
and legal proceedings of an inter
esting character are likely to arise.
Two very interesting scenes are
now going on in this country. In
the large cities the people by the
hundreds are crowding each other
in their eagerness to get a select
position from which to see the cham
pion of America beat into insensi-
bilIty the one who has the temerity
to question his title to that honor
in the pugilistic field. The desira-
BILE seats sell from S25 up. In AN
other place, of the same time, the
wife has the same champion, whom
he has promised to love, honor and
cherish, is producing evidence suffi-
cient to brand him as a libertine
worthy of the same title in that
class as he claims in the other. The
only consolation for decent people
is that she will succeed in getting
her divorce, and that the two toughs
who are to be the principals in the
scrap in Texas will so pommel each
other that it will be the last of both
of them.-Oll Review.

a gentleman informed us last
night, that the syndicate who re,
Gently purchased the electric street
railway, water works, gas works
and electric light plant at Charl-
eston, are now contemplating har,
Messing the water power of the
Kanawha Falls, and that they are
now preparing to send their engin-
GERS upon the grounds, and if their
report is favorable and feasible, they
will at once commence the erection
of proper machinery to disseminate
this water power.
The power afforded, which if
harnessed, they claim, is sufficient
to turn the machinery of this whole
great valley, at very low price to
consumers.
1t is the purpose of the syndicate
to run a trolly wire from the Falls to
the mouth of the Kanawha, and
from that furnish the power for
their uses in Charleston, and also
to all towns along the Kanawha for
both lighting and power purposes,
and also to private residences, at
prices SO low that everybody will
want it.
1t is also the intention of the
syndicate to build an electric rail
road along the Kanawha from the
Falls to this place, to afford cheap
transportation both in travel and
freights to the people.
We will have more to say upon
this very important matter to the
people of this Valley as it develops
further.
