A Friends Advice.

M Dear Sri have been a reader
of your paper for many years, and have
often felt inclined to become one OF
your correspondents; but in summer it
has been too warm, and in the winter
too cold, and at all seasons have been
too lazy to summon the energy to re-
pose not absolutely necessary to my
personal comfort, until the present.
But at last my sympathies have be-
come strong enough to overpower my
laziness, and / venture to intrude my
advice. and the conclusions / have
reached after rather extensive and
variegated experience with both men
and affairs, upon your notice, at the
risk of being unceremoniously hustled
off to the waste-basket.
have taken some interest in the
political course of your paper. have
been amused at the utter earnestness
of your editorial page. Your articles
indicate that you believe something
can be done for the great mass of the
common people. There was never a
greater mistake than this. All efforts
in this direction are futile. They al
ways have proved, and always will
prove, to be instructions of human
energy. Hamilton was right when he
characterized the common people as a
..great beast" TO be restrained or urg-
ed. to be saddled and ridden, but new

your efforts to arouse them upon the
money question. Your articles are
usually we'll written, often unanswer-
able; yet how many of them are read
by the class in whose interests they
are written, and how many of those
that are read are understood by these
people? Yet this question is more
vital to their interest, and affects their
temporal welfare more than any other
except that of taxation. When you
say that silver was the money of this
country for more than three-quarters
of a century. your Republican friends
will brand that statement as a Demo
cratic lie, and the followers of the ad-
will tell you that you
must certainly be mistaken, because
Mr.. Carlisle says that gold has been
the only money we have had in this
country since 1884. When Mr.. Car
Isle and John Sherman declare that
all the gold in the country would leave
it at once, that we would be upon q
silver basis, and that untold misery
and want would result if we treated
silver at our minis as we treat gold,
how many of them ever reflect about
this statement? How many of them
perceive that if this could be SO, that

Whittier are We Drifting?

Ed. Register-SIR: In recent
number of your paper, l noticed the
above question propounded by some
one of your intelligent correspondents,
and also some notes very well written
on the subject. / have no wish to con-
trovert or gainsay anything advanced
by the writer in that excellent article.
My only object in this paper is to show
that for many centuries, now past,
Sunday laws were enacted, and very
vigorously enforced for the greater
part. am not going to speak of the
Sabbath, as an institution, nor even of
Sunday as to its nature or obligations;
but simply to present to the reader
some of the plain facts of history as to
the laws governing the institution and
the observance of these laws, as from
time to time they were enacted and
incorporated into the various systems
of Jurisprudence as civilization widen
ed its ways and impressed its benev-
client influence upon the nations of the
earth. The Sunday enactments. which
are, indeed, quite a different thing
from Sabbath laws, both as to require
ments and the penalties attached to
their violation, undoubtedly, had their
origin in the famous decree of the En-
peror Constantine about the year of
Lord 321, and was purely civil en-
actment. as are all the laws now upon
the Statute books Of the various States
in this Union.
Four years subsequently to the is
suing of the edict of Constantine,it was
formally ratified by the Council of
Nicea, in 325 A. D., over which Coun-
Gil the Emperor presided, having in
the meantime become convert to
Christianity. In many of the eastern
nations of that remote period there
had been rules and regulations exist
ing bearing upon certain Sabbathical
rests by the people, and all this long
before the Israelite had looked upon
the strange features of Sinai, or the
book of Genesis had been written. But
with this feature of the subject / have
nothing more to do at present.
1t might be of interest to some of
YOUR readers to have an exact copy of
the first edict by the Emperor, but as
it is written in the ancient tongue of

Collars and Cuffs, are recognized, and
the common herd get the crumbs. In
fact. it is not so good tariff bill. from
the Tariff Reformer's standpoint, as
the law in force at the time the great
agitation commenced. With profes-
sions of Tariff Reform on our lips, we
have surrendered without blow to
every Tariff Baron that has deemed it
worth his while to hold us up. While
the voices of our orators were still
ringing in the earsrof the people with
our promises to restore silver, and to
cut the tentacles of the Money Devil
that had entwined themselves about
our homes, and were pressing the
lives out of our wives and little ones.
they saw the Administration turn the
treasury of the United States over to
the great high priest of the devil they
had hoped by our aid to free them
selves from.
They have seen this same Money
Devil brush aside State lines, at the
instance of the great transportation
companies. as if they had been but the
strands of spiders web. At the be-
hest of the same power they have be.
held the picture of James Monroe
turned to the wall, and the policy that
bears his name spit upon. They have
seen men high in the party's councils
throw aside its time-honored priuci.
piles and traditions with as little cere.
mony as the tramp throws away his
rags after visit to a well-filed
clothesline. They have seen all this
endorsed by a STATE Convention in its
platform that nominated a candidate
whose sole merit was that he was bit.
terly opposed to the platform on which
he had been placed.
In the light OF these facts, for what
can we hope or expect in 90, if we
endorse the Administration? If we
set the seal of our approval to this
farrago of party treason and corrup.
ton? What issue will there be be-
tween the Democratic and Republican
parties? What is there left to contend
for? The Force Bill issue is being
prepared, but after having broken ev.
cry pledge We have so far made, who
will have confidence that we will keep
| this last one?
If we expect to hold together as a
party, we must reorganize. place the
party in the hands of its friends, and
begin the battle anew. Let US be-
gin by being true to ourselves.
Let us put none but men of known
integrity on guard. and never at any
time allow ourselves to give any man
official position who has the least sus.
picion that he is better than his party
Let us relight the fires and keep uI
the fight. The American Revolution
was not lost because Arnold turned
traitor; neither will the present fight
for liberty be lost because of the treas
on of Cleveland, Carlisle and their
Cuckoo followers.

performing the functions of gold in our
monetary system, in addition to its
other uses, would appreciate. and thus
both metals would approximate in
value? Yet this is an undisputed
economic fact among people versed in
the science OF political economy, and
is only questioned upon the stump ar d
in the press for the sole purpose of
confusing the people.
Again, farmer with his farm mort

favor of sound money, and that under
free coinage the silver dollar would be

event he is not in favor of the million

worth into a dollar, and thus doubling
their fortunes. 1t never dawns upon
him that there is any Inconsistency in
the two positions. He does not see
that if it is true the coinage of fifty
cents. worth of silver at present prices
into a dollar of final account would
raise its bullion value to parity with
gold, that the whole case of the gold
men has been destroyed; for they say
if we should coin silver into dollars of
final payment they would only be worth
fifty cents. and that the gold dollar
would disappear. Neither does he see
that if this last proposition of the gold
men is correct, the owner of silver
mine would gain nothing by coming
his product into dollars. Yet both of
| these propositions are as easy to dem
onstrate as the simplest one in Geom-
etry. The average man of the COM
mon herd sees nothing wrong in John
Sherman and John q. Carlisle making
the same speech on finance. Yet Car
| Isle belongs to a party that, until a
year or so ago, was thought to be bit
terly opposed to every principle of
that to which Mr.. Sherman belongs.
They see nothing wrong in this coun-

nances over to a syndicate of foreign
Hebrews. They see no Inconsistency
in silver candidate standing upon a
gold-bug platform, as is now the case
in Kentucky. The turning of a public
man like Henry Watterson from a
blatant advocate Of bimetallism to an
equally blatant advocate of the single
gold standard, in the space of an hour,
to these people has nothing reprehen-
sible about it. Your effort in behalf
of these people is a mistake. 1t is a
misdirection of human energy. You
and l are getting to that period OF life
when it is proper for men to take their
ease and to enjoy quiet. There is no
good reason why you should labor and
| fret for eOttish people who care only
| for the present, and are incapable OF
thinking and acting for themselves.
Watch the passing show, get all the
amusement out of it you can, but let it
go its gate. Next year the silver
question will be forgotten. and men
will be bowling for or against Fed
eral Election law, which, if passed,
will be enforced or set aside as the in
| terests of the great transportation or
other corporations or monopolies die
tate. We say we are a free people.
This is humbug! We belong to the
monied class. body and soul, and it is
good sense to stand in with and secure
the favor of this class.

Rumor That He 1s Behind a Movement to

ST. PAUL, April 27.-There is still
some discussion in the city over the
rumor that Henry Willard has laid his
plans to get back into the Northern Pa
cific road through it's German bond
holders. A number of railroad men
discredit the rumor. Others think it
within the range of possibilities. A
gentleman residing in this city hints
chat John D. Rockefeller is beh nd a
movement to reorganize the road, and
that all other rumors are mere blint s..
1t is contended that he is the only
man in America who could engineer
such deal, and that in time
his hand will come to the surface. He
is the only man who has the wealth
and financial nerve to cope with J. J.
Hill, and this, taken with the fact that
there is score remaining unsettled be-
tween Hill and Rockefeller makes it all
the more probable that the latter gen
tleman, and not Willard or Hill, will
get control of the Northern Pacific, and
that, too, as soon as the accounts Of the
receivers can be shaped up and the
matter put through the courts.
