Silver tie issue.

The fact that free coinage ex-
listed for one hundred years prior
to 1873 ought to be sufficient reason
why it should be reinstated to the
exact psoition it held up to that time.
The Republican party has claimed
to be in favor Of bi metallism. A
discussion Of the question for the
past twenty years, the passage and
trial of laws requiring the purchase
of silver by the government, have all
proven that under it there can be no
bimetallism. Silver can only be
used as a subsidiary coin (if the
present policy of the government is
carried out.) There is only one true
basis for bimetallism, and that is the
free coinage of both gold and silver
at the ratio Of l6 to l.. This Is the
only thing that will keep the two
metals on a parity, The only guess
ton that presents any difficulty is
whether the United States can risk
the passage of Il free coinage law
single-handed and alone. The lead.
ing bankers throughout the country
contend that this country cannot af-
ford to do so. On the other hand,
the pcopls themselves argue that il
free coinage is the step necessary To
reinstate silver that there is only one
way that it can he done, and that is
for the United States to take the in
itiatiye. They contend with force
that if this country waits until Eng
land adopts free coinage that free
coinage will never be a realization.
The fact that this country is now
such a free borrower from England
is one Of the main reasons why the
bankers contend that it would he
suicidal for this country TO establish
free coinage. But if that be true,
are not the conditions growing worse
every year; Has the issue Of one
hundred and sixty million gold bonds
improved our condition; The wise
men say break away from England
while we can.

Democratic Bosses.

The Democratic press throughout
Missouri has had much to say about
bossism in the Republican party.
No occasion has been permitted to
pass without reference to it. In
fact, they have talked so much about
the bosses in the Republican party
they have overlooked the great octo-
pus who is the acknowledg 20 boss Of
their party not only in one state but
in the whole nation. The naming
OF this boss is scarcely necessary.
The fact that he reigns has been
discovered by many leading Demo
Gratis long ago. They can readily
recall the fact hal during the last
campaign not a cabinet officer was
permitted to raise his voice in favor
Of the Democratic party, and they
can now contrast the conduct of that
civil service reform boss with his
present conduct. AS soon as the
goldbugs are assailed, he turns the
whole cabinet loose. Carlisle and
Hoke Smith are post haste sent out
to stop the growing sentiment for
free silver. And in Missouri he
puts in an entertaining wedge by
directing his friends to set down on
the call for q silver convention and
the request Of the great boss is oar
ried out to the letter. The party
that is so beset with bosses from the
White house to the Democratic com
mittee in Missouri ought to say moth
ing about Republican bosses. The old
adage that people should sweep in
front of their own door should be re-
respected by this boss ridden party.
They lie er have an idea of their own
that is not strangled and sat upon
by their own bosses. Our advice to
you is, rid yourselves Of your bosses
before talking about the bosses of
the other party,

Democratic Committee.

The Missouri Democracy is
clearly divided into two factions
Goldbugs and Silverites. At the
meeting of the central committee
held Tor the purpose of considering
the ACCESSIBILITY Of calling a conven-
ton on the money question, the fact
was established that the goldbug end
OF the party headed by ex Gov.
David II. Francis, controlled the
committee. In other words, the ma.
chinery of the party is in the hands
OF the enemy Of free coinage. The
Republican party has no objection

can stand dissension and disunion
in the Democratic party better than

delinquency during drffis, Col Hogan imposes a military punishment in the period of study. Debs also imposes pen alties upon such of his pupils as fail to please him. Nay, ths discipline is so strict that Debs has now and then locked up one of the colony in his cell if some infraction of the rules be par tieularly fragrant.
 So far the health of the men has been excellent They maintain the very best spirits and take their im- prisonment lightly. Debs is probably the busiest man of the lot. He writes when his time is not taken up with their duties. He continues to edit the organ of the American Railway union and to write articles for various radi. cal and socialistie. publications. For instance, here is an extract from an editorial he wrote in the jail and which was published in his paper last week:
 am familiar with the often-quoted maxim:
 No man e'er felt the halter drawn
 With good opinion of the law
 It has been said of every martyr from the first time that thumb-screw was ever applied by the inquisition It was said of every victim
 
 rack or burned at the stake. 1t has been a handy excuse for tyrGnts in all ages. and Is as current now as when the beasts of bigotry first lapped the innocent blood of their victims know with what gusto corporations and their ermtned sycophantS and all their brood of de- generate creatures regard the Imprisonment of the officers of the American Railway unton and yet it Is not law, nor the administration of law that cu1led forth our protest, but the ab- rogation of all law and the substitution of tron-clad despotiSm. Innocent men, unstained by crime, we appealed to the courts and to tho constitution for protection, for guaranteed rights. We appealed as American citizens to the supreme court of the nation. As well might we have appealed to the many man-eat- ing tigers in an African jungle Our destiny was Imprisonment, and it tells the story oi the final triumph Of Russian methods of gov ernment in the United States of America.
 There is one other thing which Debs has devoted his time to while in jail and that is 8 project to get condemned murderer saved from the gallews. He took up the case as soon as he got fairly settled in his cell. It is that of Clyde Mattox, sentenced at Wichita by the United States authorities to be hanged in October next. Mrs. Sadie Hatch, mother of the young man, issued plea to the mothers of the United States, beg,s ging them to intercede for her son with the president. This youth is not yet twenty-One. He is the only son of Mrs. Hatch, and she is widow. When Debs heard of her public appeal he at once wrote an article about it which he
