joint standard of both gold and silver
is the money of the constitution; that
it was the money of our fathers before
1878, when our people were happy and
our country prosperous, and the same

patriotic duty we all should and must
perform to demand at the hands of our
representatives in the halls of con-
gress, that they restore to us tho
standard as it existed prior to the de-
monetization act of 1873; and to this

SILVER AND PROSPERITY.

Business Keeps Pace with the Prospects Of
the Restoration of the White Metal
The improvement in business re-
ported from various portions of the
country has had its natural effect in
leading to increase of wages in many
factories and mills, but this increase is
still far short of making up the reduc-
tions of the past two years. As the
prospect for the reinstatement of silver
to its place continues to improve,
business keeps pace with it step by
step. The claim has been made by
gold-bug organs that better times will
kill the agitation for free coinage. They
are mistaken, because the masses of
the people well understand that to the
agitation is due the more buoyant tone
manifested in the business world.
Could the announcement be made to-
morrow that free coinage of silver will
never be established there would be
an immediate collapse, and within six
months we would probably witness
another financial crisis as disastrous to
the country as that of 1893. If silver
sentiment continues to advance with
the giant strides that have marked its
progress during six months we shall
see measurable rise toward prosper
ity even before a free coinage law can
be actually enacted--Denver Ne ws.

sentiment on the question of Venezue.
Ian affairs 1t must be taken with the
usual discount, and no doubt due to
the system by which foreign affairs
are discussed by bantling journalists
rather than by suave diplomats; but
it is serious, nevertheless Its gravity
consists il two facts, neither of which
have anything to do with the merits
of the question in dispute. In the
first place, for the first time since the
civil war, the Americans have built
a navy of which they have some yea
son to be proud, and which sooner or
later they will use against somebody.
In the second place, it is equally sig
nihcant that the American press as
sures the United States that the Mon
roe Doctrine has been informally
adopted as national fact by the
American people. and the dispatch
sent to the Neao YoyA World (referring
to the reported Bayard Salisbury of
terview) probably has basis in
truth.
Considering the disrepntabie char
acter of the Venezuelan government,
it seems extraordinary that any civil
Lied power should contemplate such
crime as peaceable region under
the rule or government of Spanish
American adventures, whose only
claim to the sympathy of the United
States is that they cali their anarchy
