ment should come from a body of
men equal in numbers and standing
to any similar body ever assembled
in the United States. Should the
Democratic A-stlidates be unaccept-
able, then it must be prepared to
place an independent ticket in the
field, that viii represent the princi-
pie OF bimetAllism in the highest
and best sense, and at the same
time command the respect and con-
fidence of the American people.
To win this battle the entire
strength of the silver sentiment
must be thrown to a single candi-
date. United, we can win, but di-
vided, we are bound to lose.
In any aspect of the situation the
ST. Louis convention will have a
great duty TO perform, and the work
of organization should not be per-
mitted to cease or lag for a single
moment. Such a course might be
equivalent to complete surrender.

For your Protection. Catarrh Cures" or
Tonics for Catarrh in liquid form to be taken
internally, usually contain either Mercury or
Iodide of Potassa, or both, which are injur-
ious if too long taken. Catarrh is a local, not
q blood disease caused by sudden change to
cold or damp weather. 1t starts in the nasal
passages, affecting eyes, ears and throat.
Cold in the head causes excessive flow of
mucus, and, if repeatedly neglected, the re-
suits of catarrh will follow; severe pain in
the head, roaring sound in the ears, bad
breath, and oftentimes an offensive dis
charge. Theremedy should be quick to allay
inflammation and heal the membrane. Ely's
Cream Balm is the acknowledged cure for
these troubles and contains no mercury
nor any injurious drug. Price, so cents.

TELLER TO THE FRONT.


1t is as fairly certain as anything
can be that when the Democratic
party meets in convention in Chi
cago next month it will split on the
financial question. Some months
ago Senator Teller announced that
if the Republican convention at
st. Louis declared for gold he would
walk out of the convention. There
may seem to be no connection be-
tween these two facts, but any man
who thinks minute will see their
immense importance to Wall street.
It's the belief of the gold standard
men that when Senator Teller
leaves the Republican convention,
as he assuredly will leave it, he
will be approached by the Demo
Gratis and rendered the conventions
nomination on a free silver ticket.
It is known to be fact that the
men who expect to control the
Democratic convention at Chicago
have already made overtures to the
Senator from Colorado, and they
think they can close the bargain.
1t is altogether probable that the
platform which the silver Demo-
Gratis will establish will call for an
amendment to the Constitution
providing for an income tax, the
free coinage of silver and the repeal
of the civil service law. Teller is
opposed to the latter proposition
and there will be a distinct split
over it. The men who want him
for President, however, while they
think the repeal of the civil service
would be good thing, do not in
sist on it, and are perfectly willing
to yield SO they can put Teller on a
free coinage ticket. All these facts
are known tosthe. Wall street gang.
They believe that if Senator Teller
is nominated on a free silver plat
form he can sweep the country.
They would much zpreferYnot to be
lieve this, but they must admit the
truth, no matter how disagreeable
it is. They know what q favorite
Teller is in the west, and under
stand that both Republicans and
Democrats would vote for .him", In
the Pacific Coast Estates tTeller
Would undoubtedly Secure a large
number of Populist votes. Seeing
things in this light was what made
the Wall street people 80 anxious
to postpone the Republican conven-
ton at st. Louis. If it was not
held until after the Democratic
convention Teller would never be
in position TO accept the Demo-
cratic nomination, for at that time
he would not have had the chance
to bolt the Republican party. IT

SPANISH JUSTICE A FARCE.

SPANISH JUSTICE A FARCE.
The testimony of Frederick w.
Lawrence taken before a sub-com-
mittee of the Senate Committee of
Foreign Affairs recently in regard
to the situation in Cuba has been
made public. Mr., Lawrence stated
that he had gone to Cuba as news
paper correspondent and had been
expelled. He said that as cores
pondent he had found it itimpossible
to secure much information from
the Spanish authorities and that he
learned afterward that what was
given out was untrue. Speaking of
the imprisonment of Walter Dy-
CERT he said:
II found Mr.. Dygert imprisoned
at the prison of Guines, in little
cell in which there were twenty-five
other men and in which there were
no sanitary arrangements worth
speaking Of The room was very
small and was simply filthy The
people with him were the dirtiest
men | ever looked on in my life."
Dygert had, he said, been there
about three months at that time,
and Mr. Lawrence said the Spanish
authorities had been satisfied for
two months that Dygert was inno-
cent of the charges against him.
Referring to the trial of Mr.. La
borde and Milton, captured on
board the Competitor, Mr.. Law
renee said that neither the prose-
fcution nor the defense asked any
questions; that five were tried at
once, and that the trial, which re-
suited in the sentence of death,
lasted less than day.
Asked if there was an interpreter
present, Mr.. Lawrence said there
was, but that he did not make his
presence known to the prisoners
until they were asked if they had
anything to say in their own de-
tense. The long statements were
read by the Judge Advocate in
Spanish. The evidence was given
in Spanish and not translated in
their hearing.
Their defender did not commu-
nicate to them the substance of it,
nor utter one single word to them,"
said Mr.. Lawrence.
81 have every reason to think
their defending counsel could not
speak English. Then they were
asked what they had to say in de-
fense, but not in English. The pre-
siding officer of the Court martial
said to Laborde in Spanish, "What
have you to say?" He said few
words and SO it went until the last
man was reached-William Gildea
and the presiding officer spoke to
him and he did not understand
him and then the interpreter got up
and said: "Do you want to say
anythingY" Gildea arose and said;
Cali | have to say is that do not
understand a word that has been
said to-day for or against me, and
at any rate appeal to both the
British and American Consuls."
"There were two prisoners who
could not speak or understand
Spanish Milton and Gildea."

THE DUTY OF THE HOUR.

the united states would De the one
great issue of 1896. When this dec
laration was made the gold press
was shouting in tones of thunder
that the silver craze was dead"
That cry has long since been aband-
oned, and not only the. great met
ropolitan papers, bat the advocates
of the gold standard generally, both
Republicans and Democrats, are
gravely calculating the possible out
come of the presidential contest.
In the Democratic party the sill
yer men are fighting a magnificent
battle. In the face of their own
administration, in the face of the
great money power" Of the coun-
try, in the face of nearly all the
great newspapers that for years
they have looked to for instruction,
and with many of their heretofore
most trusted leaders arrayed against
them, confronted by almost every
disadvantage known to politics,
they have gained ground with mar
velous rapidity, until now, in the
absence of fraud of the most out
rageous character, it is practically
certain that they will dictate the
platform and name the candidates
of the National Democratic party.
At the same time disa affection has
been spreading through the Repub-
lican party at most remarkable
rate. Large numbers of lifelong
Republicans are altogether dissatis-
fed with its monetary policy, and
disguised with the servile toadying
to wealth that has become the char
acteristic of it's leaders.
The question then arises, what
should those silver men who make
that issue paramount do? The work
of the National Bimetallist is edu-
cational, rather than political. The
silver conference held at Washing
ton last January selected national
executive committee to guide the
silver movement on its political
course. This journal is not dis
posed to invade ground that prop
erly belongs to that committee, and
will not do so.
But in view of the prospective
success of the silver wing of the
Democracy we have been asked to
give our views as to the proper
course for silver men, outside of that
party, to pursue, and it will be done
cheerfully. $50
The work of organization should
proceed even with redoubled ener-
gy. No human being can tell what
the future will bring forth.
The silver men may control the
Democratic organization or they
may not. That they will have
majority is sure, but they also had,
majorities in Michigan and other
states. Those who will steal state.
convention in the interest of "honest
money" will certainly experience
q sense of pious exaltation in steall
ing a national convention.
No matter what the Democratic
party may do, the success OF the
campaign for the restoration of the
peoples money, will depend very
largely upon the St. Louis Silver
Convention. That convention should
be numerously attended and should
consist of thoroughly representative
men-men in every way worthy Of
the greatest cause that has been
presented in this country since the
outbreak Of the Civil War.
The course to be pursued by the
will rest with the con-
vention itself. Should it be satis-

LAURADA MAY NOT BE LOST.
Bishop Turner Tells Why News
From Her May he Delayed.

Atlanta, Ca. April 1S.-Bishop II. NJ.
Turner who is well acquainted with the
west coast OF Africa. says that the ru-
mOred loss OF the steamship Laurada.
which left Savannah March l with over
800 Liberian emigrants. is imaginary and
should create no excitement whatever.
While all ocean and land travel are sub
ject 20 dangers and accidents, and II the
ship Laurada met with an accident Il
would be no more than has overtakcn
thousands OF other ships; yet there is not
the least cause of entertaining any fears
at this time because no cablegram has
been received.
He says there are no wharves a Monro-
via, Liberia, and ships are loaded and un-
loaded by big surf boats. And the condi-
tion of the winds at this time of the year
makes 1t somewhat difficult and tedious (:
so that the vast amount OF the freight the
ship carried over, IA addition to the emil
grants. might require a week or more to
unload it. and possibly as long TO reload
Il, IL a cargo OF freight was awaiting IL.
And IL might be that the ship had gone
down the Liberian coast TO gather other
freight. where the same surf trouble would
have TO be met, and several weeks might
be consumed before the ship could reach
Sierra Leone, where access to a cable could
be found. And the price of sending ca
blegram from Sierra Leone Is so fright
fully high that possibly none has been
sent. At ali events 1t is foolish to enter
tain any fears vet.

There are several stories as to the cause
OF the disaster, the most reasonable one
being that the magazine, a room used FOR

the mine exploded just as the men were
returning from lunch at 1 o'clock this
