was intensely opposed to monopoly,
to banks, and bank paper. These

There was no public concern in
which Jefferson felt SO much inter-
est after the government was organ
lied under the Constitution, as in
that of maintaining a sound curren-
cy, consisting Of, and based on the
precious metals, gold and silver.
He was opposed to the protective
policy, as it is now held by the Re-
publicans. He was in favor Of a lib
eral commercial policy; but he rare
ly wrote on the subject, as no one in
his day pretended to claim the right
to impose tariff taxes for protection,
aud not for revenue. He was op.
posed to spending the public money

This year we will have another cleo

the 900 men who voted against Eli
as Carr for Governor, and the twenty
odd thousand who have joined our
ranks since then, agree now to vote
for Republican candidate for Gov
ernor who will support Republican
gOldbug candidate for President !? No.
There are less than one hundred OF
them in this State who will now dc
the inconsistent thing that they then
refused to do. Those who are ready to
take this step are heading for the Re.
publican party. The quicker they gel
there, the better for the Peoples Party

In 1892 there were over forty thou
sand Alliance Democrats in this State
who refused to vote for Governor Carr
because he declared his intention to
turn his back on the principles that
he believed in to support goldbug
and monOpolist for President. These
men were in the Democratic party
when Mr.. Carr was nominated for
Governor, and they would have voted
for him for Governor if he had stood
by the State platform on which he was
nominated; that is, over forty thou
sand of the best men in the State left
their party in 1892 and went into q
new party before they would support
for Governor (even though he was an
Allianceman and for free silver) a man
who sacrificed his principles on the al.

SENATOR BUTLER CLOSING THE DEBATE
ON HIS BOND BILL.
Senator Butler began his speech on
Friday and will deliver it in INSTALL
ments continuing to-day and finishing
tomorrow. Before he closes hd will
60 into a thorough and exhaustive
history of every bond transaction en-
tered into by the officials of this gov
eminent since the late war, and he
proposes to prove conclusively that
the decentralization OF silver was
brought about under the influence of
hired lobby at Washington, employ
ed and sent there by the bond holders
to secure the characterization of silver
in order that their coin bonds might
be made payable in gold alone. He
will show that it was the bond holders
who had the act of 1873 passed, which
first changed the contract and made
bonds which were payable greenbacks
payable in coin; I'd, that it was the
bond holders who then proceeded to
work, through devious ard various
means, to strike down one of these
coins and to appreciate the value OF
the other coin in which their bonds
would have to be paid. His speech
will be the most complete and exhaus.
tive exposition of the whole financial
conspiracy that has been carried or
against the people of this country, By

of the peoples own government since

beginning his speech on last Friday
Senator Butler reviewed the presen,
political situation in very interest
ing manner.

in the popular mind against its policy

tanned in the Office If he would accept
another term. This he did. The posi-
tion was that of City comptroller, and

same.
GOVERNOR AT THIRTY-ONE.
troller, though only thirty-one years of
age, he was chosen governor over Cen
eral James A. Beaver. He gave the
state q clean administration. Though
the legislature was controlled by his
political opponents he sets his face
against extravagant appropriations and
held the great corporations to q strict
obedience to the laws. In Pennsylvania
the governor is not permitted to i'm
mediately succeed himself, but four years
after his retirement he was, in 1890,
again chosen Chief Executive Of the
keystone state on the platform Of a re-
form by q majority Of 1854, although
the Republican candidates for Lieuten-
ane Governor and Secretary of Internal
affairs were elected by majorities of
upward Of 10000.
After his first term as Governor Mr..
Pattison resumed the practice of law
in Philadelphia. Three months later he
was elected president of the Chestnut
Stret National Bank. Previously he had
declined the authorship of the Treasury
rendered him by President Cleveland,
but afterward accepted an appointment
as Pacific Railroad commissioner. His
report on the relations of that corpora
ton to the government Is one of the
most valuable papers in the financial
history of the land aided roads. That
sterling old Democrat, eX-Chief Justice
jeremiah s. Black, once said Of Patti
son:-"That young man is dreaming Of
the presidency, and he Is taking good
care never to do anything that will be
quoted against him in federal politics" "
When Pattison retired from the highest
Office in the state the leading Republi-
can organ Of this city took occasion to
say:-"The people admire q man Of
brains and they are quick to recognize
an honest official. Governor Pattison
fills the measure of these qualifications.
He will be heard from in the future. -
The publications may soon be verified.
THE MANTLE OF RANDALL.
Robert e. Pattison succeeded the Ia
mented Samuel j. Randall as the idol
OF the Pennsylvania Democracy. The
State convention which will be held in
Allentown. April %, is likely to unan-
imously declare Mr.. pattison Pennsyl-
vanias choice for the presidential NOM
inatlon. The Pattison boom Is in very
capable hands. William +. Harrity,
chairman OF the Democratic National
committee, is in close communication
with the respective leaders, and is kept
we'll advised as TO the situation in each
county. That Governor Pattison is
popular throughout the state. and that
the organization in his behalf is success
full in it's efforts is evidenced by the
fact that county after county is adopt

presidency.
