RECENT CONVENTIONS.

We are sorry to say that the platform
Of the Saratoga convention affords no
reason for hoping against hope that
the Chicago convention will declare for
sound money and at the same time hold
The free-silyer Democrats in line with
their Democratic brethren. on the con-
trary. New York seems to have worded
her platform SO as to please Messrs HILL
Whitney, Flower ana their associates in
the Empire State. We now quote
the silver plank Of the Saratoga
convention, with a few immaterial words
omitted. Here it is. as it came from the
approving hands Of Messrs. Hill. Whit
ney. and Flower, and other leading New
York Democrats:
81. We are i'm favor Of gold and silver
ms the standard money of the country
We are opposed as a permanent financial
motley 10 gold monOmetall.sm on the one
hand. and to silver monometaliism on the
other hand. -
1--WE believe that such bimetallism. to
which the nation IS sOemnly pledged
can only be safely secured and perma-
nently maintained through the concur
rent action of the leading nations or the
world. Neither this country nor any
y
Is able to maintain II. and it would be
folly TO attempt Il. Being so convinced,
we are opposed 20 the free and unlimited
coinage OF silver ia the absence or the
co-operatlon of the other great nations"
We declare our belief that any attempt
upon the part of the United states alone
10 enter upon the experiment OF free-silVer
coinage would not only prove disastrous
10 our finances but would rctard, or en-
Ha al Isl q
national bime,allism. UntN international
cooperation for b.netallism can be Sc
oured-to which end our efforts as a
government and a people should be III
good faith dlrected-we FAVOR the rigid
maintenance OF the present gold standard
as essential TO the preservation OF our
national credit. the redemption Of our
public pledges. and the keeping invlolate
OF our country's honor"
That seems to be a pretty good decla-
ration in favor Of international free coin
age. and as such we commend IT, But
whore is the plank that is to afford
standlng-room for both free silverites and
single-standard gold-bugs?
The same day that New York sent forth
her platform against free-silver coinage
the States OF Texas. ohio, and Indiana
sent forth their platforms on the other
side. However Texas. Ohio. and lndi-
ana come out unreservedly for free coin
age of silver without international co.
operation. Texas added new feature to
the free-silver platform when she inserted
the following:
1--WE demand that n law shall be en-
acted by the Federal Congress making
gold and silver coined at the ratio herein
mentioned and the paper convertible into
such coins at tho demand OF the holders
of such notes. legal tender for all debts
4,rivate and public, thereafter contracted,
without reference 10 any contract OF
agreement that debt be paid in par
ticular kind Of money. reserving alone the
right to designate the kind of money IL
which the customs dues may be paid.

pprxroV srnEEr-cAR SERVICE.

Every Richmond and Manchester street
car that is TO be run 10 the Auditorium
grounds next week should be plainly let
tered 20 that effect. so that every man
who can read may be able to inform
himself on this subject at a glance.
Yes; let the fact be stated in big broad
bold letters-"This Car Goes Through To
the Auditorium"
1t win be desirable also 10 have some
sort OF placards on the cars to show
which Of them run on Clay street, which
on Broad, which on Main, etc; but these
placards need only be shown AT the EX-
posit,on-Grou where crowds Of
strangers VIII rush out and get into the
FIRST car they see at hand. not knowing
whether 1t will take them down one street
or another.
We do not forget that most OF our
street-cars are already lettered; but we
think something more conspicuous would
be OF advantage TO strangers
Further IL would De well 10 label the
proper cars 10 read: "This car viii take
you 70 the Soldiers Home; This car
will take you near 10 the Jeff Davis
Mansion" etc.
The better the street-car companies
label their cars. the better the public
will be pleased. and the better the street.
car service Will be appreciated.

IVCONE-TAX.

The people Of this country were in favor
OF the income-tax, which the Supreme
Court Of the United States pronounced
unconstitutional: but could then do no
thing to help themselves. The agitation
in favor Of a new income-tax takes the
form OF a demand for an amendment OF
the Federal Constitution. In the Illinois
state Democratic Convention on Tuesday
last the following resolution was adopt
ed:
owe favor an amendment to the Fede-
raj Constitution permitting the levying
and collecting OF an income-taX.'
That is to say It Is assumed in this
proposed amendment that the people OF
the United States are already in favor OF
an income-tax. and need only the op-
portunity TO have one put in force. This
assumption is wei based. Give them
a chance, and the people will soon make
it manifest that they are friendly to the
policy of taxing the incomes OF the PEG
pie Of wealth.
The discussions in the papers and before
the people OF bmetallism, free coinage,
etc. etc. have had the effect Of rem
dering dissatisfied a large number Of per-
SOUS, who were good citizens and true at
the time of the passage of the income
tax. which was killed by the Supreme
Court. and who indeed are good citizens
now. but have been made to believe that
the wealth OF the country does not con-
tribute its full share TO the support Of
the government.
The scenes in some of the State conven-
tions recently held testify that. as we
have said. there is a good deal Of dis
satisfaction among even good citizens.
When Congress comes to consider the IL
linois and other declarations in favor OF
an income-tax. that body will be sure 10
leave off some Of the bad features Of
the last income-tax, and adopt new and
better features. 90 that nobody need
understand the Illinois or any other state
convention as favoring the last income

LrR FRIENDLY OFFICES ASKED.

Washington dispatches confirm the re-
port that the British Government has
requested the good Offices of this govern
ment I'm securing the release Of the
British Crown Surveyor, Harrison, who
was arrested by the Venezuelan authori-
ties while he was surveying a road in
disputed Guiana territory. There ought
to be no hesitation about complying with
this request; nor do we suppose there
will be any. Owing TO the trouble between
the two countries over the boundary-lino
question, the diplomatic relations of Great
Britain with Venezuela have been inter
rupted. and aside from all other con-
siderations. TO use our friendly offices in
the Harrison incident would be but n
graceful act Of reciprocity in acknowledge
ment of what Great Britain did for this
country I'm the Transvaal in the case OF
John Hays Hammond.
However, the fact that under all the
circumstances. Great Britain should have
appealed to this government to take up
the cause Of her Crown Surveyor is sig
niGcant and encouraging. 1t is signiii-
cant, as showing that Lord Salisbury un-
dcrstands that the people Of the United
states were thoroughly in earnest in their
Interpretation of the Monroe doctrine
The request is such radical departure
from the usual British method of manag-
ing such affairs-is so much at variance
with the time -honored British ultimatum
policy-as 10 constitute an uamistakable
recognition on the part of Great Britain
Of the wisdom OF going slower and look
ing more carefully before leaping, than
heretofore, in any complication in which
she may become involved with Central
or South American republic. The en-
couraging view of the matter is that 1t
stimulates the hope that the negotiations
now in progress for a general arbitration
Of all issues between Great Britain and
the United States-including the Nene-
zuelan issue-will be successful.
