Congressional Candidate Jarvis
made a brief address. 1t was too
lurid to be popular in Van Buren,
County and he was called down to
make way for a committee report
that the chairman had conveniently
ready. The address by Orator Roo-
erts was typical populist harangue,
bubbling over with sophistry, that
must have made the democrats of the
old school labor hard TO swallow.
Altogether, the mass convention
of silverites was not an imposing sue
cess. After drumming the county
from one corner to the other, adver-
Using profusely and importing two
renowned speakers, $50 men were
found to be willing to be on record
as voting in a free silver convention
that it had been confidently claimed
would bring together at least 1000
silverites. Not to exceed 800 people
heard the speeches. The free silver
bubble is bursted in Van Buren,
County.

lT is very easy to see what the con-
stitution says upon the matter. Sec
ton s says the congress, among other
powers, shall have power "To coin
money regulate the value thereof,
and of foreign coin, and fix the stand
ard of weight and measures" Sec
ton 10 says: "No state shall make
anything but gold and silver coin a
tender in payment of debts" 1t does
not say "gold or silver" but "gold
and silver" Had it been contem-
plated that congress would ever es-
tablish any other standard than gold
and silver, the limitation upon the
power of the states would have read
to the effect that no state should
make anything tender in payment
of debts except in accordance with
the acts of congress. Since no
state can make anything but gold
.B AND-& silver legal tender it
follows that the fathers considered as
matter of course the maintenance
by congress of gold s1y- AND 81.
silver as legal tender for all debts.
kalamazoo News
AS gold .g AND 81 silver are a
full legal tender for the payments of
all debts, both public and private, it
is difficult to see just what force
there is in the argument of the News,
or what bearing it has upon the free
and unlimited coinage of silver at
the ratio of 10 TO /. The inference
would be that the News would lead
its readers to understand that the
s600,000,000, more or less, of silver
dollars that form a part of our circu-
lating medium are not legal tender,
but the News knows better. Such
dishonest political arguments seem to
be the stock in trade of the average
free coinage journals.

A Few Choice Pointers from the
"Quartopops."


Following are a few choice pieces
of wisdom heard at the Hartford con-
vention:
"You ought to deal tenderly with
the populists, as they are the ones
who have converted the democracy
to free silver" -Chairma Millar.
Gag rule don't GO here! You
can't shut me ofn'-Erastus Osborn.
"We all make plumbers and it was
a tremendous blunder when we elect
ed Grover Cleveland" chairman
Millar.
Yes, and it was a democratic blum
der.
Henry Sherman of Paw Paw de-
handed a poll of the convention, as he
believed there were not $50 delegates
present and thought some one was
stuffing the hat.
Such choice epithets as "bulldoz-
ing" "all we want is clear Justice, -
etc., were freely heard from different
corners of the hall during the con-
test for the nomination for sheriff.

Have You Heard from Maine?

The barometer OF national politics
indicates fair weather for republicans.
Gas goes Maine, so goes the Union"
Maine has followed the example of
Vermont and declared for the repub-
lican ticket by the largest majority
in her history. According to the lat
est returns the plurality for Powers,
republican, for governor will be in
the neighborhood of $4,000. Hon.
Thomas Bracket Reed is reelected
to the house by over 10000 plurality.
The returns show majority of about
$4,000 for Mr.. Dingley for congress
man from the second district; over
10000 for Mr.. Milliken in the third
district, and practically the same for
Mr.. Boutelle in the fourth district. In
the state Legislature the democrats
will apparently have less than half a
dozen representatives in the house,
and not one In the senate. AS antici-
pated, the republicans polled tre-
mendous vote and secured many DEM
ocratic ballots. On the other hand,
many disaffected democrats remained
at home and only a few voted for
the nominee of the gold-standard
wing.
Secretary Beans of the democratic
state committee comedies the election
of the republican ticket by over 49,
900 majority. To the Associated
Press he said: 81 am satisfied Pow
ers' majority will be over 10000. 1t
is much greater than ] expected. l
have nothing to say of the result
further"
There was nothing further to be
said:

One of the best expositions of the
republican position on the currency
is Senator Sherman's great speech
delivered at Columbus, August Is.
The full text of this speech is printed
on the second page of the NORTH
ERNER this week, and should be care
fully read and studied by every voter.
1t will be found especially useful
to republicans, who should preserve
it. 1t will enable them to meet and
refute many of the fallacious argu-
ments and mis-statements Of free
coinage advocates. Senator Sher-
mans intimate knowledge of our
financial system in all its details,
qualities him to speak upon it as an
acknowledged authority, in greater
degree, perhaps, than any other man.

The Silver Mass Convention.

Taken all-in-all, the county "quar-
topop" assemblage and its sausage"
ticket were fearfullv and wonderfully
made. Prohibitionists were seated
side by side in delegations with the
very men whom in times past they
have been pleased to term "whiskey-
ites," and whom they have repeated
ly held up as the personifcation of
evil and the chiefs Of sinners! We
have always thought the ''prohis'
were in effect voting the democratic
ticket anyway, and now they have
merely thrown off the mask and TAX
en- their places where their hearts
have always been, in the democratic
ranks. The nomination for represent
alive was the sop thrown to them, and
it was an anomaly indeed to see an
out and ont prohibitionist receiving a
nomination at the hands of conven-
ton made up as was this one. The few
''prohis" who were in the convention
will have difficulty in delivering the
goods" in the shape of votes for the
balance of the ticket in November.
The "pops" and "dems" were there,
making up the great majority of the
convention, all bowling themselves
hoarse in their denunciation of Mr..
Cleveland, as though he were the cre-
alton of their common foe, the repub-
lican party, when in truth he is pres-
dent by sufferance of democratic
votes, and for the misery and suffer-
ing that has come with his admins.
tration the democratic party is re.
sponsible.
A few renegade republicans were
there, and they were lionized by the
convention. Indeed there was scarce
" an office for which some man was
not named whose chief claim was that
he had been a republican-though
some of them at very ancient periods
of their careers. Even the fact that
j. M.Weeks was once a republican
in the early days of the party, before
be was democrat and a popnlist,
was mentioned as the crowning glory
Of this political chameleon.
The convention was very notice
able by the absence of. men wearing
the bronze buttonrof the Grand Army
they don't want their pensions
paid in Organized dollars.
OF the successful aspirants for
nomination, Reese is prohibitionist,
Cavanaugh and Free are democrats
of the bourbon stripe, Fisher is an
ex-republican who slid out of the
party on the silver toboggan last
spring, Doyle and Weeks are popu-
lists with all the heresies of popu-
lism, and Palmer is a republican-pop-
ulist.
The convention was from start to
finish fit exemplifcation of its great
prototype, the Chicago convention,
and was as thoroughly beyond the
control of the chairman as would have
been $50 Texas steers. The work
was not completed until seven o'clock
in the evening.

The Apple Crop.

For ] 895 the apple crop sc the United
States will be worth anywhere from
100000, 900 to 800, 900, 900, probably
nearer the latter figures than the former.
a large part Of this vast crop will come
from New York and Michigan, but Mis-
souri, is becoming a formidable rival to
those states. Apples are surer growth
in Missouri than in either New York or
Michigan because Of the milder climate.
In the Ozark country the crop has failed
only three times in the pasts25 years s
This year there will come near being
a glut in the fruit market, so far as APP
pies are concerned. Missouri alone will
furnish from sl2,0oo,oo0 to $15, 00O,-
900 worth. Orchards Of hundreds Of
acres are no great novelty in the prolific
Ozark country. Ex-Secretary Of Agricul-
ture Norman j. Colman has c, 900 pear
trees and 1900 apple trees, the latter
bending under the heaviest yield they
have ever borne. Apples pay if the pro-:
Queer can get 20cents a bushel for them
on the tree. In almost every part Of the
apple producing section the yield is as
great as in Missouri. The only hope Of
making this great quantity Of fruit pay
is to ship it to Europe, where good APP
pies are scarce. For this purpose the ut
most care must be observed in packing.
The rest Of the crop that cannot be con
su1ned at home and made into cider, cider
jelly and vinegar can be fed proftably to
live stock. Apple fed pork is delicacy.
The people Of the United States, too,
ought to eat more apples than they do.
Nothing is more conducive to health
and long life

movement that had long been agitating

would be contri buted if the federati on
needed it. <'<ss
The organization has been in active
working existence not quite a year.
Here are some Of the things it has done
& It has suppressed the gambling houses Of
Chicago. Appointments to Offices in the
city and in Cook county have been put
under the civil service system and are
made under merit examinations. The
citizens Of Chicago raised a fund of $50, =
900 for the punishment Of rioters and
illegal voters at the April election. The
streets of the business portion Of the
city are cleaner than they ever were be-
fore. Iron boxes are affixed to the lamp
posts to receive waste paper. A
The federation has its own street in
spectors, paid from it's own fund. Filthy
bakeries and doubtful milkshops have
been done away. To keep politics for
ever out of the organization rule was
made that no member should be a city
official. The federation has further I'M
deltaken the task Of Kidding the city of
professional beggars and Of reforming
the unsanitary conditions Of tenement
houses. The approval Of public senti-
ment is what made the society's work
possible. &
