The New Note Under Fire.
Baltimore Sum-.

Baltimore SUM-
And now the art critics and some of
the newspaper critics have opened fire
upon the new silver certificate which
has just been issued from the Treasury.
1t IL objected that History, who is in
structing youth by pointing out to him
the city of Washington, Is represented
as a left-handed damsel. 1t is assumed
that she is left-handed because she is
hugging the young man with the right
arm while she is pointing with her left
hand This point, we submit, Is not
we'll taken. People frequently point
with their left hands, while girls nearly
always, It is said, hug with the right
arm. But more serious objection is
raised against the new note, and that
Is that while 1t Is teaching history 1t
neglects to teach spelling. There Is a
scroll on the note bearing in very small
characters, the introduction to the Con-
stitution of the United States, 1--WE,
the people of the United States, in order
to form more perfect union, establish
justice, insure domestic tranquility"
etc. On the note the word tran
quillity." it is alleged, is spelled with
one 81" This seems to be so, but then
the question arises, why should there be
two "ls" in tranquility" when one is
sufficient In the earlier copies of the
Constitution the two '1's" were doubt
less used, and the dictionaries still spell
it that way. But the Constitution con-
tanned in the manual and digest of the
two houses of Congress we have the
word spelled as 1t is spelled on the note
and as this is the business Constitution
which is subjected to the assaults and
buffets Of Congressman, and is probably
violated oftener than any other copy,
the artist doubtless felt that he had
the right to follow that one. II the word
had been spelled on the note with the
full complement Of 'ps'' probably nine
people out Of every ten would have con-
sidered 1t spelled wrong, and the coun-
terfeiters would have doubtless correct
ed 1t in their reproductions. Squire
Dogherry tells us that to write and
read comes by nature" But no one ever
said that about spelling. In George
| Washingtons time, or a little before
his time, spelling was matter oftaste.
| There were no firmly settled rules, and
most people spelled as seemed good in
their own eyes. Then when people wrote
well there came an era Of good spelling.
Later on this gave place to bad spell
ing, concealed in bad writing, and now
the typewriting machines have de-
stroyed this refuge for bad spelling.
We conclude that, for all practical pur.
poses, one 81" Is enough to put in tran
| quillity.
The artists may condemn the new sill
yer note, and the dictionaries may re-
flute 1t and convict 1t Of bad spelling, but
these notes were not made for artists
The great mass Of the people who get
hold of them will consider them beauti-
full and artistic, and not one in ten
thousand will know that tranquility is
spelled wrong, unless he is told about
it, and then, perhaps, he will not care on
'1' about it.

The dramatic profession has lost beau

ness man of this City has gained win
some bride.
Miss Daisy Belle Sharpe, daughter of
Colonel Craigle Sharpe of Oakland, whose
keen interest in the Mldwinter Fair, Oak
land Exposition and other large enter
prises has made his name familiar the
whole State over, is now engaged to be
married, and the lucky man is E. A. How
ard of Howard & Co., the Spear-street
hardwood importers.
Both the lady and gentleman are well
known on both sides of the bay and are
highly esteemed. Miss Sharpe is very
accomplished young woman, and has al
ready gained an excellent reputation as an
amateur in the theatrical profession.
Judges of dramatic ability declare that
she has unusual gifts in this direction.
When Augustin DAILY saw Miss Sharpe
act he gave testimony OF his admiration
and appreciation by at once offering her
a position in his OWL company TO support

shortly have gone East and begun her
work there.
Since completing her dramatic studies

decided to give up the stage, and accord

mooted question, but from all accounts it
will occur at no very distant date.
Lately the young lady has handled a
very facile quill for local publications, and
even though she intends 10 relinquish the
idea of going on the stage there Will be no
necessity OF her severing all connection
between herself and the profession in

GERMAN REPUBLICANS.
A Club of Over 500 Is Formed and
Spirited Speeches Are
Made.

A well-attended meeting OF the German
American Republican Club was held last
night at Alb Bush street, Robert Wieneke
presiding. The enrolling committee re-
ported that it had made remarkable prog
ress in the matter of increasing the mem
bership of the club. In the limited time
that had been allowed them they had
without any difficulty secured a me mber-
ship of over 500 and all indications were
that this number would be largely multi
piled before the next meeting.
The committee further reported that it
had placed enrolling lists at number of
places. from which very satisfactory re-
suits were anticipated. The report of the
committee was adopted.
Thereupon the president announced that
he had appointed the following-named
gentlemen as an executive committee:
Oscar Tolle, DR.. f. P. Muffe, G. Siemann,
r. Munk, Charles Samuels editor of the
San Francisco Abend Post), L. Pockwitz,
G. A. Rutz, II. c. Droeger, Charles w.
Mainwaring, Fritz Gerke, DIR. A. Z.
Bruno and Z. Jentsch.
DIR. F. P. Muffe, the president, was
authorized to appoint a finance committee
of seven. The president asked that he be
allowed until the next meeting to name
the aDpointees. Permission was granted
accordingly.
After the routine business of the organi-
cation had been transacted spirited adj
dresses were delivered by D. Klintworth of
General Saloman, DR.. B. Paulsen and DR..
Wirth.
The speeches were enthusiastically re-
ceived by the large gathering and the
meeting adjourned to meet at the same
place next Friday night at o'clock.

FOR PROTECTION AND BIMETALLISM

ingness of Candidate Bryan to discuss the
question of the tariff He declared that
In New England, because of the lack of
protection under the Democratic admins
tration, eighteen factories are closed, ten
are working on half time and the rest on
quarter time. Those which are in opera
ton are finishing orders on contracts, and
when these are finished the factories will
be closed. Nearly 10000 persons were
thrown out of employment in those mills
this year. The wages paid last year
amounted to SIS, $50, 900, while this year up
to June l they amounted to less than
$500, 900.
The falling off in the production and
sale OF American wool this year amounts
to nearly 300,000000 pounds, and our I'M
ports were 256, 100000 pounds. In one
year our imports OF English wooden goods
increased from $1,000 600 to $4,000, 0G0
In Manchester and otherHmanufacturing
towns of England the factories are in
operation day and night to food the
American markets with cheap goods ad-
m1tted under the low tariff of the Wilson
act, In the expectation that if Mckinley
is elected the gates OF America will be
closed to her competition.
The Democracy always favored the adj
mission of the products of pauper labor
from Europe at low tarltf, and Bryan
while in Congress said that he was
ashamed that members of the American
Congress should not think that the people
OF America, by reason of their superior in
telligence, were able 10 compete with the
labor of England or any other European
country.
Mr.. Kidney next turned his attention to
the question of the volume of currency,
and scoffed at the declaration that a
large per capita volume of currency i'm
piled more prosperity than was indicated
by small volume OF currency. In illus
tration of the fallacy of this proposition he
pointed to Switzerland, with an average
per capita of 81, and to France, with FIVE
times that quantity; yet prices were the
same in both countries, and the standard
of civilization was the same.
The speaker declared that the law of
finance, as established by the history of
civilized nations for the past 200 or 300
years, was that when two kinds OF money
of unequal value are placed in motion for
the purpose of exchanging commodities
the inferior money always drove the supe-
rior out of existence.
Mr.. Kidney complimented Congressman
Mccall of Massachusetts for his speech in
the Auditorium few evenings before,
and added that he had been acquainted
with the Congressman father who was q
sturdy Irishman and a Democrat. The
speaker closed with a scathing arraign-
ment of the Democratic party as one
which ever appealed to the vicious ele-
ments of human nature.
Miss Ella Ellis followed with comic
song, which she sang with much spirit
and dramatic action. She was encored
ana responded with campaign song on
the ''Popo- Dem ocratic Triplets."
G. c. Smith closed the meeting with a
brief speech, in which he called attention
to Ststistician Mulhall's statement that
during the latter part of President Harri-
sons administration the wealth of the
Nation increased at the rate OF 81 500, 600
every tWenty-four hours.

GENERAL BARNES TONIGHT.

The executive com mittee of the Repub-
Iican State Central Committee will at its
meeting to-day appoint successor on the
Presidential electoral ticket to Colonel G..
F. Croker, Withdrawn.
The committee are unanimously of the
opinion that mechanic or laborer should
be appointed to represent the workingmen
OF this State. The professional and other
classes OF the community are already well
represented on the ticket, as will be seen
from the following:
First District, Mr. Francis, proprietor and
editor OF the Napa Register.
Second and Third, attorneys at-law, Messrs.
}. NJ. Walling and H. A. Powell respectively.
Fourth, a merchant, J. S. Spear.
Fifth, merchant and sugar manufacturer,
Claus SpTeckels.
Sixth, farmer, Thomas Flint.
Seventh, horticuIturist and grower OF olive
oil, Elwood Cooper.
At large, a ship-builder and ironworker,
Irving NJ. Scott.
The selection of a representative work.
ingman as elector at large would round
off the ticket very nicely, and would make
it truly representative of all classes of the
community. D. E. McKinlay, house
painter, whose shop is at Santa Rosa, will
probably be the choice.
Persons wishing to hear General w. H.
L. Barnes speak should go early tonight
to the Auditorium, corner of Eddy and
Jones streets. The speech will be an
elaborate affair and will deal exhaustively
with the great issues now before the peo-
pie, namely, the protective system of
tariff as contrasted with free trade or
tariff for revenue only, and the question
as to whether or not the unlimited COIN
age of silver and the arbitrary dou bling
of its bullion value would be a success
economically, and if the expansion of the
currency would benefit or iniure the
laboring masses.
1t would be suPerhuous to praise Gen.
eral Barnes drawing power as speaker,
the grace of his diction or the clean-cut,
convincing style of his reasoning. 1t is
only necessary to mention the fact that
General Barnes will be the only speaker
and that he will have the evening to him.
