that "no party considerations whatever"
Will induce them to depart from the stand
they have taken. To be sure, Iowa is a
sure Republican State. Not once since
the formation of the Republican party has
the electoral vote of that State been cast
for a Democrat, and only twice since 1858
have the Democrats elected their Gov
ernor. Where the action of the gold
standard Democrats will hurt most, how
ever, will be in the Congressional dis
tricts.
The Democracy had made up it's mind
that two or three Congressman could be
elected next fall, and they had some rea-
son to think they could, owing to fac
tional fights among Republicans concern
ing local affairs; but it would take the
entire strength of the Democracy and con-
siderable outside help to do it. But now
that the party is hopelessly split, the
plan to work trick in the Congress
sional election will be abandoned.
The head and front OF the declaration OF
war against the silverites is John C. Kelly.
who is not only Internal Revenue Col
lector OF the northern half of Iowa. but he
is editor and sole proprietor of the leading
DeInOCFdt4C udIIy III Iowa, tDe SlOuX Olly
Tribune. And when it is said that he car
RED the State convention year ago for
the gold standard and had Cleveland s
administration Endorsed, it will be better
understood what declaration to refuse to
support silverite means. Kelly is an en-
thusiastic and neyer-give-up advocate for
the gold standard on principle. That was
his hobby before Cleveland was elected
Mayor of Buffalo, and rather than advo-
cate for silver he would resign his Gov
eminent position and stop the publication
OF his paper. To Kelly more than to any
other one man was Boles indebted for his
election to the Office of Governor
1t is OF no consequence now who got the
gold men to assemble and persuaded them
to pledge themselves to work against the
election of any candidate for any office
from President down who advocates silver
coinage. The deed Is done and good to
the State of Iowa will come because of it.
But Kelly's paper has about as much in
tiuence in Northern Nebraska and South
Dakota as it has in Iowa, and the silver
Democrats in these States may expect to
be keel-hauled every day until Novem Der.

A DEMOCRATIC PR0NUNOIA-
MEET0.

The attitude OF the single standard Dem
ocrats of Iowa is signihcant-the more
so because it was they, for the most part,
who discovered Boies and secured 103
votes for him for President in the Demo
cratic National Convention in 1892. The
pronunciamento OF these Clevelandites, or
sound-money men, recites that they have
made solemn pledge not to vote for ANY
candidate for President or member of
Congress who is not known to be opposed
to the free and unlimited coinage of sill
yer." And, as if to rob it in, they add
