and no way, apparently, of bring
ing the money and strength to the
Republican organization to bear on
It. 1t Is there. The Republicans
know at least that 1t is there but
where il is and how to lay ones
finger on it Is another thing, and
with all Mr.. Hanna's generalship
and ability he cannot solve the
problem.

General G. III. Grosvenor, recent
~, while walking down the street
IN Athens, met his rural friend,
Farmer l.. a staunch Republican
and supporter of the General in
former campaigns, when the fol-
lowing conversation took place.
GEN. G.-Why, how do you do?
FARMER L.-You have the ad-
vantage of me, ! believe.
GEN. G.-Why, am Gen. Gros-
venor, candidate for Congress.
FARMER L.--Are you the same
Charley Grosvenor that has been
preaching Free Silver around here
the past two or three years, or are
you the Gold Bug Charley?
GEN. G.-Go to HI!

There is not one position the
goid-bugs named six weeks ago
that they stand on today. They
have been knocked out of every
position they have taken, and the
last three weeks OF the campaign
will show up more converts for free
silver than any other three weeks
of the campaign.

GIVE DUBOIS THE HALO.

II 10 evident that Senator Dubois, OF
Idaho. considers he is being very badly
treated He had made up his mind that
II be declared ne was willing 10 sacrifice
everything and leave the Republican
warded by his not having to sacrifice
every thing. The Popocrats OF Idaho. who
have been working for many other things
In addition TO free silver, are not disposed
TO give them up for Senator Dubois, who
is with them only on the silver question.
They are willing to have his assistance,
and appreciate his services. but they are
not willing to turn down" one Of the
aspirants TO the senate in their own ranks
in order TO reward Mr.. Dubois.
II seems now as II instead of sacrificing
everything and leaving the Republican
party he has sacrificed the party and go,
left himself He does not seem to have
any occasion for complaint. If he left
the party because he thought that was
his best chance for reelection. he Is
mere place-hunter who has no claim 70
consideration at the hands Of any party.
IL he were sincere when he said he was
willing to sacrifice everything to princi-
pie why not let him do TT Not only viii
that course serve to establish his SINGER
ity and good faith. but IT win enable pos
terity TO point TO him as shining ex-
ample. II he IL rewarded without having
made any sacrifice, he will always be un-
der suspicion OF having followed free sill
NH ha< he ehar, 1.$
surest road to reelection.
The Popocrats can hardly Be expected
TO stand aside and let him 70 back. The
senatorial term 10 six years. The question
of free silver VIII be settled within a year
Are the Populists particularly anxious to
then place in the hands OF a Republican the
pohcy OF the country for the ensuing five
years7 Senator Dubois has stated that he
stands on the Republican platform except
a. 10 the money plank. Why should tho
Populists elect him when. II thsy have the
power to do that, they have the power TO
elect . senator who win stand on every
plank OF their own PLATFORM
Tho Popocrats need not fear any defec-
ton of free silver Republican votes on
Dubois account. II there 10 any man
heretofore IN the Republican party who
has deserted It for free coinage. he
will no, refuse 20 vote IN November for
Mr.. Bryan because he is not sure that
next March the legislature will vote for
Dubois.
It is for the greater power and glory Of
this nation that It's citizens shall be
trained to sacrifice all personal consId-
erations for the good OF the country; but
in order that the example may be efics-
cious the nartyrGom must be complete.
The story OF Caszblancs would be lost II
he were rescued; the halo OF the martyr
never encircled the head Of hero who
was pardonsd before his flesh crept be-
meath the death dealing flames.
