VERY MUCH ALIVE.
The Silver Issue, According to
Senator Chandler.
WRITES TO A LONDON MONTHLY.

Bryan Men Not Bimetallists, He says, and
Nebraska Mans sIdeas-American People
for Bimetallism, but Tariff Won the No
vember Battle, Says the New Hampshire
Statesman-An Irrepycssible Conflict.
Washington. Nov. 30-The Post, in a
cable letter from London, prints today
an advance copy of an important article
written by Hon. William z. Chandler.
senator from New Hampshire. for the
December issue of The National Re
view, the Conservative monthly, in
which he discusses the late election
from the Republican standpoint. His
principal object is to encourage Eu-
ropean bimetallists to continue their
propaganda. The Review. commenting
editorially upon the election of Major
Mckinley, dogmatically asserts that
unless the Republican party settles
the silver question before 1900 there
will be nothing left of that party after
1900"
Senator Chambers article is as fol-
lows: European bimetallists need not
believe that the election of Mckinley
and Hobart by overwhelming majori-
ties is a decision to permanently ac-
cede to the single gold standard. The
Bryan proposition was soon seen by
the American voters to be simply that
the United States should adopt silver
monometallism; should deliberately
give up all attempts to keep gold and
silver at parity; should send gold to
a premium and thereby make it mer-
chandise merely, and should base all
American prices upon silver only.
Bryan Men Not Bimetaalists.
''It can hardly be considered, upon
reflection. by any true bimetallist that
helped the cause of bimetallism in any
country in the world. 1t is true that
the Bryanites called themselves BIZ
metallists, and that Mr.. Bryan, in his
recent outcry from his temporary po-
litical entombment, addresses. not the
Democrats. not the Populists. nor the
people, but the bimetallists.' This.
however, is q sheer affectation. No
Bryan orator or writer has seriously
denied that the adoption of his policy
the immediate, unlimited free COIN
age of silver by the United States
alone'-would send gold to a premium
and keep it there for an indefinite
period. Surely that would be silver
| monometallism; and can it be contend
ed that silver monometallism is any
better stepping-stone to bimetallism
| than gold monometallism.

Wrong in Conclusions.
New York, Nov. 30.-In a detailey
reply to General Weyler's interview
printed last week in these dispatches.
Enrique Jose Varona. editor of Patria-
the Cuban junta journal here. says
that Weyler's conclusion that the scat
tering Of Maceo's forces is the result
of defeat is wrong: that Maceo simply
divides to conquer. as II were. and that
he can carry on the war indefinitely.
Referring to the generals claim that
Cuba is treated. just like otheer Spanish
provinces the editor says il Is not true:
that Cuba has almost no representation
| in the Spanish parliament and that
| only per cent. of the population can
| vote. and this population Is nearly all
Spanish. He says weyler lies when
| he tells the reporter that Spain Is not
charging Cuba with the expenses of the
war, and that 1t will all come out OF
the island. which Is one reason why
| the Cubans will never give up and Will
win their independence.
Horrible Report from Key West.
Chicago. Nov. 30.-A Key West spe-
cial received here states that the Span
/ iards in Pinar del Rio. carrying out
General Weyler's orders. have mas
| en- and girls. perpetrating nameless
| atrocities on the women and girls. This
was all done in one night.

The So. .JOhn Folly.

The folly Of people in moments of OK
element is we'll illustrated by tho In
habitants OF st. John, Kaa, who got into
q row with a lot OF circus roughS and
wanted Governor Morrill, TO call out tho
State militia to quell tho riot. IL there
are not enough bodied, law-abidlng
citizens in Stafford county to subdus
the gang Of toughs travelling with Q one-
horse country circus, that county had
better disorganizs and become attached
to some Of lts neighbors. Kansas has
too many fellows who are 30 CFazed with
the false and foolish ideas oPpaternalism
that they never have q sour stomach or
an attack OF wind collie without rushing
to the government for protection, as
scared chickens run under the wings Of

A STRIKING CONTRAST.

Those Of His Able Predecessor.
During the past few weeks the pspsFs
have been full OF Dick Blues rowdy,
bolsterous abusive speech on the
Soldiars' Home matter. Blue lost his
fight. His methods had much to do
with his dsHest. Bnlldozing, abuse and
bluster will not often win even in o good
cause. In striking contrast To Blues
effort is the following from the pen fan
old party Congressman In recent issue
OF the st. Louis Republic (Dem.) with
reference To certain speech made by
the man whom the people OF Kanssa
unwiSely defeated when they elected
Dick Blue. The article 10 40 follows:
"Harris concealed his light under a

he had spoken twenty minutes, nearly
all had left their seats, and crowded
round him in Semi-cirCle, in order to
hear every word he said, and when his
half hour was up, his time was extended

everything is in q rush, crash, jam,
turmoil and confusion during the last
two weeks. That's the precise period at
which most steals are accomplished, and
it was under such circumstances, OF
course, that Mr.. Huntington had his
colossal job sprung on Congress,
"When Harris concluded, it was
universally conceded that he had made
one Of the ablest speeches heard at that
session.
"The reason why his remarks created
such profound impression was that he
was full of his subject, knew it in every
detail, was familiar with every rami6ca-
