TaE REruBLIcANs SELL OUT,

A Washington dispatch Of the 9th in
slant says: The Republicans Of the
United states Senate have sold them
selves to the Populists. Incredible as
this would have sounded . week ago. 1t
was foreshadowed last week BY the de-
thronement Of Senator Sherman from
the Craftsmanship of the steering com
mittee; by the dropping Of Senator AL
drich from its membership and by the
selection al the caucus Of Senator Mitch
ell Of Oregon, . strsightout silver Repub.
lican, to replace Sherman.
And yet the abiect surrender OF the
Republicans was not concluded until to-
day, when Senator Stewart Of Nevada
affected On understanding with the Re-
publicsns by which. in consideration OF
retaining absolute control Of the finance
committee, the six Populists and silver
men agree to abstain from voting when
. resolution to r~eorganize is made.
The control Of the Senate will thus
pass into the hands Of the Republicans.
Senator Morrill, will be placed at the
head Of the finance committee, but he
will be . mere fgurehead, behind whom
will be the strength of the Populist and
silver element. A Populist will take the
place on the Senate Finance COMMITTEES
made vacant by Senator McPherson's re.
tirement.
Senator Aldrich's modification is re-
ported to be very great and he is said to
be as 'mad as . wet hen."
The deal will be carried out in this way:
The forty-two Republicans will vote
for reorganization and the t~hirty-nine
Democrats against it, the Populists re-
framing from voting. A majority OF the
Senators is required, but the Democrats
will not raise the question. The next
motion will be for the election Of q Pres
ident Of the Senate pro TEN. Frye OF
Maine will be nominated by the Republi.
cans and Harris Of Tennessee by the Dem
ocrats. The Populists will, according to
the agreement, vote for Frye. The
offices will then be divided between the
Republicans and Populists.

ALASKA MIN Es.

From the report Of the Secretary OF
the Interior, just received from Wash
ington. the following is taken. which may
interest our readers:
The amount of gold produced from the
mines Of this Territory during the past
year has done much to confirm the opin.
ion that Alaska is a profitable and will
be a permanent mining country. Capital.
lists Of experience in the business Of min
ing gold from other fields have visited IL
and have become interested in its devel-
opment.
In the Harris mining district Of Ju-
neau, the Treadwell and Mexican have
exceeded their product Of last year, and
the mines in the Silver Bow Basin, at
Sheep Creek, Sumdum, Unga. and Ber-
ner's Bay. have made profitable returns.
The Sitka mining district. on Baranoff
Island, contains large deposits OF gold
| bearing quartz rock, ON which q number
| Of mining claims have been located and
development work commenced. This
will in the near future be an active min.
ing camp.
The valley Of the Yukon river, cover
| ing q distance Of 800 miles, is without
| doubt the most extensive field OF placer
| mines discovered since the finding OF
| gold in California. The great obstacles
TO successful mining in this district are
| the shortness of the season for actual
work and the perpetually frozen ground.
The earth requires to be thawed with
Gre before it can be worked. Notwith-
standing these ~unfavorable conditions.
the long, cold Winters. and the long
distance from the base Of supplies, the
Yukon country is destined to be 3 pro-
life gold-producing district. The Yukon
mines, being 1000 miles from the organ
lied courts Of the Territory. need the
establishment of q judicial district.

When the result OF this years cleo
tions in the United States was received
In England, Mr.. MOretOn Frewen made
forecast Of what the Democratic party
would be driven to do, which is pub
Iished 10 the Manchester Guardian. We
shall see in the next few months how
nearly right the forecast is. IL must be
remembered that Mr.. Freweu is . pro
nounced bimetallist, and what he says is
entirely free from party prejudice. 1t is
as follows:
venture to write you . few lines on
the subject Of yesterdays elections in
the United States. Coming at this mo
ment, the rout OF the Democratic party
is of extreme interest and importance to
the currency reform movement the world
over. President Cleveland, Mr.. Carlisle
and the howlers for Sound money" have
destroyed their party. 10 Kentucky
Senator Blackburn, the idol Of the
Southern Democracy, is to disappear
from the Senate because Kentucky has
been betrayed by its own party and
handed over to the Republicans. The
solidarity Of the South is now q matter
Of history. The Presidential election OF
1892 found the Democratic party with q
vast majority favorable to free coinage.
BY an abuse of the patronage more cor
rupting than anything known in Ameri-
can politics in our time. President Cleve'
land attempted. and has failed. to bride
. majority Of his party to turn their
backs on their election pledges. The
elections of yesterday serve to empha-
size what Mr.. Bland wrote me not long
since concerning the Democratic rout
last November. Considering, wrote
Mr.. Bland, "the attitude our party has
adopted with reference to silver, the
wonderment is that any Of us Democrats
remain in Congress to tell the tale" The
all-important position as declared by the
elections yesterday is this: II the Dem.
ocratic party is to survive, let alone re-
vive, il has got to adopt a free coinage
platform at the meeting Of its National
Convention next June. Otherwise that
party is past praying for. But If the
party managers recognize this-and its
managers are among the most astute pol
i~ticians on the c~ontinent-the South will
go solid again next November for the De-
mocrscy, and an immense sweep can be
made Of the Republican States of the
West - Colorado, Montana, Nevada,
Utah, Wyoming, Oregon, the pakotas
and California-not q Republican will
return to either chamber from all these
Republican stfongholds. Thus the cleo
tions of yesterday, which must impel the
Democratic party again in the direction
Of free silver, may probably force the
Republican party toward a combined
tariff and a silver policy, a policy prob
ably involving a great reduction 10 the
American tariff in favor Of those nations
which will maintain open mints. The
fury of the Democratic party, its eyes
now finally opened, with its own Admin.
istration will know no bounds.

The London Times, the particular and

it's standpoint in a nutshell. as follows:

like them low, and the lower the better.

MR.. NEWLAND's CREDENTIALS,
