expression for the executive depart
ment. 1t does not recite the things
which the executive agrees not to do;
it announces what he is for and what
he will do. Fancy also what would
follow were there to be proposed in
next years republican convention. a
plank like this: I'VE declare that the
candidate who is named to go before
the people on this platform, must bind
himself not to veto, ETC., ETC.; what
scene would follow!
Mr.. Carters opinion is that the
money plank next year will be some
thing like the one that was in the plat
form of 1892. That was tried; during
the extra session you couldn't rally a
corporal's guard of republicans in both
houses of congress to give IT the slight
est force or effect.
Now, as we understand II. the silver
league, which is strongly organized in
the Middle West and which has form in
the region west of Omaha, Is the
scheme which the real free-coinage
men are proposing to go by-that is our
understanding of the case. That plan
means that those silver men who go to
the national conventions of the politi-
cal parties will demand a plank provid-
ing outright the free and unlimited
coinage of silver, without reference TO
the conclusions of any foreign power;
the condition being that. IL this is re-
fused the silver men will walk out of
the convention forthwith and operate
Al, rtt1 hn Ia
the way we understand it: anything
short of that. II seems to US, would be
trfling.
How refreshing It is TO read the ac-
count of yesterdays enthusiastic meet
ing of Illinois democrats. Those men
mean business. and they show more of
the sort of spirit that wins victories
than was ever evinced at any gather
ing in the Northwest of which we have
knowledge. These men do not humble
about protection or free trade or reci-
procity or party lines or any other
side issue. They were out and out for
the burning question of the hour; II
seems to us that they put to shame
the men who are presuming to speak
for the mining states of the North
west.
Not less direct are the words of Judge
Caldwell. whose talk ought 10 serve
as an inspiration. lie said: Those
who do not favor the free coinage of
gold and silver at the ratio of sixteen
to one are for n gold standard; there
is no middle ground" Judge Caldwell
does not propose any non-veto pledges
nor do the Illinois democrats. Just
for once. the Standard would like to
hear from the citizens of Montana dec
larations that ring as do those that are
coming from the non-mining regions of
the Middle West.

The ship that has to sail among rocks
needs a good pilot.
A policeman stops being an optimist
when he puts on his uniform.
1t is hard TO convince a pessimist that
there are any chestnuts that do not have
worms in them.
1t will keep any man on the dead run
who tries to get rich or famous, and be
religious all at once.
Business interests that conflict with
home interests are snakes that had better
be killed dead on the spot.
Showers of blessing are not likely to fall
upon the church, except when the
preacher has an overlooking cup.
When angels rejoice over the sinner
that repents, they don't care whether he
has any money in the bank or not.
Getting religion right always means to
get rid of the brier patch and have in its
stead the grove OF myrtle trees.
When some people go to church they al
ways think the preacher is shooting
straight at the people in the next pew.

TALK On RAIN AND MONEY.
Colonel Forney Wants Gold, Silver. Copper
Paper and Wires i'm the Air.

Colonel John W. Forney of Belle
Plaine was in the city yesterday and
was in most genial mood when a re-
porter for the Eagle met him. He used
four of his fingers TO advantage to IL
lustrate his position on the money
question. He wants gold, silver. copper
and paper as money and he wants them
all maintained at a parity as they can
be done by the wise craftsmanship OF
the Republican party. He thinks Amer
lea is. big, strong and influential
enough 20 do this. Colonel Forney, It
seems. does not go much on Coin"
and he says many if the arguments in
the book are not good. He does not go
much on artificial rainmakerS either
He thinks Wichita robs Belle Plaine
and the surrounding country OF rain
that ought to belongs TO them, and
that ought TO belong TO them, and
light, telephones and telegraph wires
for ii. He thinks all this net work of
charged wires serves to attract mois-
ture. Il Will prove it, said he using
his fingers to advantage again. "Take
moisture than Chicago: Chicago has
more than St. Louis; ST. Louis has
more than Kansas City: Kansas City
has more than Wichita. and Wichita
has more than Belle Plaine. If the
wires do not ca use that what does? If
we ever can fix it so as to erect wire
poles high enough TO reach the strata
of moisture in the air. we will get rain,
and lots of it. Until then, l don't go
much on artificial rainmaking"

Another Kansas notable in A differ
ent way from Quantrell, which Judge
Johnson was intimately acquainted
with in the early days of Kansas was
the late Senator Plumb. They served
in the war together. Like all others,
Judge Johnson speaks in the highest
praise of the great Kansas commoner.
He says that Plumb was the same busy
man in the military camp that he sub
sequently was in the United States
senate and the greatest man her ever
kenw concerning the disposition of
correspondence. He read and answer
ed every letter that came 10 him in
those exciting and busy border days
and kept a copy of everything. Judge
Johnson has had a varied life in the
early days and among other things
followed the track of the buffalo over
the limitless hunting ground. Judge
