what senator Morgan Predicts.

OF Senator Morgan. OF Alabama, a re-
porter for the Washington Post says:
mo one has watched the progress OF
Secretary Carlisle through the South with
more interest"
The Post proceeds: Yesterday after
noon the Senator talked in frank and
most interesting manner of Secretary
Carlisle's southern mission lie did not
disguise his opinions. He believes that
there is an effort on foot 10 disrupt the
old Democratic party, and create a new
organization out OF the ruins. for the pur-
pose of returning President Cleveland to
the White House for the third time. or.
II this be impossible, TO make Secretary
Carlisle the Presidents political legatee
IL Is hardly necessary TO add, however,
that Senator Morgan does not believe that
this attempt Will be successful
What is the occasion or necessity for
the campaign Of education that Mr.. Car
Isle opened at MemphisE asked the rep
resentative Of the Post. with a set Of
resolutions setting forth a new plan Of
action by 'sQund-money men OF all par
ties@ "
ut is an evident attempt" said Sena-
tor Morgan. speaking with great delibera-
ton. TO form a new organization that
will discard the fixed Democratic doctrine
Of bimetallism. II Il results in the forced
disruption Of the party Mr.. Cleveland
will have few. If any, regrets. and Mr.
Carlisle evidently expects great advantage
from a new political deal"

term can hardly be set down as "a pos
slbility." Mr. Carlisle will, OF course
never be nominated coming. as he does.

Another Memrhis convention.

The Central Bimetallc League OF Mem
phis has called a convention 10 meet
there on the 18th and 18th OF June.
The call attacks the monometalnsts We
quote:
THAT the people may come together
and take counsel OF each other, II has
been deemed expedient to call together a
convention to assemble at Memphis on
the 18th and 18th days Of June. 1895.
Every community. every city and town,
and every State In the Union is earn
estly requested and cordially invited to
send delegates TO that convention. Every
vicinity is urged TO organize bimetallic
clubs, and every club should be repre-
scented. Their country needs their best
thought, their most careful elaboration.
and energetic action.
The object of this convention Is to
formulate some definite plan OF future
action, and 10 give direction to the
overwhelming volume of public sentiment
favoring a return 10 our own and estab-
fishing our independence OF allen fnan-
cial institutions. to devise means for
such campaign Of education that here
after It Will be possible to elect only
such men to the legislative and execu-
tive offices OF the nation as are unawed
by power and unbought by spoils."
The league say they have no money 10

not, they might as well not try TO get
up "a monster convention"

An Oriental Joke.

The idea Of a Republican form OF gov
eminent in Formosa is one Of the most
stupendous Oriental jokes ever conceived.
1t is hardly possible that any one ac-
quainted with the history Of and the
conditions existing in Formosa can take
the proposition seriously. The island has
an estimated area Of 1900 square miles,
and population Of about 100000, COM
posed chiefly Of settlers from the main
land Of China and native or aboriginal
tribes of distinct Malay type. Ever
since the establishment Of alleged Chi
nese authority over Formosa, these two
elements have been engaged systemati-
cally in cutting one anOther's threats.
and between them they have gained for
the island a reputation for being able
to keep up more continuous turmoil than,
perhaps, any other spot of similar size
on the face Of the globe. Not all the
power Of the Chinese dynasty has been
able TO stop the pet diversion of For
mosa for any length of time, and fire.
quently foreign nations have been COM
PEELED to step in for the purpose OF help
ing China in her efforts TO preserve order
on the island. However. 1t might not
be unwise for Japan 20 allow the republic
experiment to proceed for a few months
before taking possession of Formosa, for
1t IS almost certain that at the end OF That
period she would have fewer Of both Chi
nese and natives TO. Kill out during the
process Of asserting her supremacy.

Juar. u.she..s Let,er--senntor mn.

Judge Hughes's Lefter--senator mn.
Whatever Judge Hughes writes IS apt
to he worth reading. let his subject be
what It may. But especially worthy Of
study are the various contributions which
he has made TO the effort TO solve IN,
silver problem. His book on this pro.
blem. published several years ago, was
worthy Of the encomiums which were be-
slowed upon II By students Of high
finance both in this country and abroad.
and the various letters which he has
since written upon the subiect-including
the one in yesterdays Dspatch-have all
met With a reception which testifes to
the ability which he has manifested IL.
discussing this most important subject.
And are we going 10 tackle" this mas
ter OF finance and attempt 10 turn his
guns upon himself? BY no means. We
wish merely to say a word in justification
Of those almost innumerable bimetallists
who cannot help thinking and saying that
for the United States Government alone
to undertake to open its minis TO the free
coinage Of silver would be a dangerous
experiment-one so dangerous that in tn,
existing condition OF the worlds finances
there cannot be any good controlling rea-
sons given for risking upon Il our whole
financial system.
Judge Hughes IS not one of these doubt
ing bImetalists. On the contrary. he Is
confident OF the ultimate triumph Of the
bimetalllc cause. and firmly believes that
the bimetallists have the decision Of the
question already within their own power.
We fear that he is too confident. The
position OF Senator Hill. Of New York,
who was up to last week accounted
monometallist, Ia better one 10 occupy,
we are inclined to think. than that occu"
pied by Judge Hughes. In Senator Hilrs
speech TO the Association OF the Demo
cratic Editors OF New York State he
claims that the free coinage OF silver can
not be safely undertaken by this country
alone. Read his words:
Those who urge an immediate opening
OF our minis 10 silver on ratio OF Is 10
really fancy that the United
States can alone and unaided do as much
for silver now as bmetalllc France did
from 1893 TO 1873"
Senator Hill gives the bimetalllsts fun
credit for sincerity and honesty. but he
fears that they are mistaken in their be-
lief that this one country Of the United
States. acting alone and unaided, could
maintain by legislation the parity OF gold
and silver. He is one OF the ablest men
in the United States He has that bold
ness which belongs 10 every real states
man. and seems always TO have clear
ideas upon whatever subject IS upper.
most in the public mind. See how clearly
he states the following proposition. w.
quote from the same letter which We
mentioned Just now. as follows:
Il do believe that the concerted laws OF
the principal governments Of the world
combined can. on a ratio Of 1914 TO l, de-
termine and maintain the relative value
everywhere OF coined or unconed silver
and gold. Upon this belief I shall act
until it is overthrown by facts
Here is a challenge to all corners. The
substitution Of l5lz for 16 as the coinage
ratio is merely the substitution OF the
European ratio for the American ratio.

The Geary Exclusion Act.

On Monday last the Supreme Court Of
the United States decided the Geary Chi
nese exclusion act to be constitutional.
and incidentally affirmed the general right
Of the United States 10 exclude aliens Of
all kinds.
That question is settled, because 1t is
settled Alright. Appeals were made to
the papers year or two ago asking them
to join in a crusade against the Geary ex-
tradition act. Ours would be poor gov
eminent. indeed. II 1t could not exclude
aliens from this country. especially Mon
sol aliens. The Supreme Court affirmed
our right to exclude aliens Of all kinds,
or, as we might phrase Il, "all aliens"

Pay-Days and Saturdays.

a considerably number of the large
manufacturing establishments OF Rich
mond have adopted the plan Of paying of
their employees on some other day OF the
week than Saturday. Other employers,
we feel sure, are only waiting for re-
quest from their employees to make the
change.
Experience has shown that the percent
axe Of savings is greater among those en-
ployees who are paid OF on other. days
than Saturday than II is with those who
are paid on on Saturday.
II the housewives who are dependent
upon the wages OF their husbands we're
consulted. they would declare almost
unanimously In favor Of the mid-week
payday. Those wives who get their
money on Saturday evening instead Of
On Friday evening. or earlier. are at great
disadvantage compared with the latter.
