The Republicans are trying to
keep gold and silver at a parity,
so they claim, but they have n very
peculiar mode of procedure to oc-
complish this. They believe in
giving gold unlimited rights of
coinage, and starving silver into
submission.

The masses of the people of this
country cannot be turned from
their purpose to support Bryan
and Sewall. The issue is SO plain
and SO important that no sensible
man can fail to understand it, and
no patriotic man can hesitate to
cast his ballot for the Democratic
candidate.

The children of Israel once went
astray, forsook the faith of their
fathers, erected golden calf and
bowed before it instead of wor-
shipping the Lord Almighty.
They were punished for their sins
by numerous terrible plaques, in
Guiding locusts,grasshoppers,army-
worms, chinch- bugs, straddle-b bugs,
humbugs, tumble-bugs and gold
bugs. History is repeating itself.
The children of the Republican
party are following in the sinful

GEN. MARIN'S POLICY.
AGGRESSIVE CAMPAIGN BE-
GUN ON THE CUBANS.
Will Try to Run Down and Capture Comes
and Maceo-To Coup Them Up IN Plnar
del Rio and Then Swoop Down on the
Enemy and Crush Him.

HAVANA, Feb. General Marin,
the acting captain general of the
Spanish forces here, who left this city
yesterday with his staff and a number
of prominent merchants and clerks
familiar with the province of Pinar
del Rio. who will act as scouts,
reached San Antonio de los Banos and
made his headquarters there last
night. He has with him detachment
Of cavalry and hopes to strengthen it
considerably before engaging with
Gomez, who is still understood to be
trying to effect junction with tho
insurgent forces under Maceo. Wire
communication with the front is in
terrupted to-day. Spanish officers
here say that an important engage
ment viii be fought before General
Marin returns to Havana.
The departure of General Marin is
given out here as marking the begin
ming of a more aggressive military
policy, and great things are expected
of his campaign. His purpose is stated
officially to be to enter upon the pur-
suit of Gomez and Maceo in Pinar del
Rio province He takes with him
1,7co cavalry, 1000 infantry and four
batteries Of artillery, and lie de-
ponds on the military line along
the railroad from Havana to
Batabano to prevent the escape of
Gomez and Macco, while he runs them
down and captures them in Pinar del
Rio. 1t is probable that he designs
the forces Immediately under his COM
mand, as above stated, as sort of
flying column, equipped to move
swiftly and to follow closely upon the
insurgents in the evasive tactics they
have unremittingly pursued. But
there are going with him about 5000
additional troops, under the command
Of Generals Canells, Aldecoa and Lin
ares, who viii cooperate with him.

Senator TfllmAu's Bitter ArFaignment Of
Cleveland and Carlisle.
WASHINGTON. Jan. 3O.-Such a tor
rent of iavective has seldom been
heard IN the senate as that in the
speech of Mr.. Tillman on the silver
question, delivered yesterday. Vet
eran members of the body character
lied the speech as one of the most re-
marka BILE in the history of the upper
branch of congress. It abounded in
statements of sensational character,
arraigning President Cleveland. Sec
rotary Carlisle and other men in high
places. There was a directness of
statement and a dramatic manner of
delivery which awed floor and gal
leries. The gestures of the senator
were used frequently in acting his
words. At one point he made a pro.
found salute. and then,tipped his hat
10 Sherman ''as the financial victor OF
q quarter of century," The galleries
were moved alternately to applause
and laughter. Pausing for a sip of
water amid roars of laughter, he re-
marked: II seldom wet my whistle
while I speak: still you can't run a
wind mill on water"
The next moment there was hush
through the chamber rs the Senator
applied such names as JUDAS" to
member of the cabinet, or character
lied the President in bitter terms. At
times the Senator's voice sank to
whisper, as, for instance, when he
gave warning of the approach of a
popular revolution and communism,
and the marching on Washington of 4
host with rifles in their hands. Again
his voice resounded through the cham
Der and the outer corridors as he
called Senators and members ''cow-
ards" for not rcsorting to impeach-
ment.

SAYS ENGLAND SUPPORTS
THE MONROE DOCTRINE.
That II rs lie Thinks President Monroe
Understood It.-England Powerless to
Interfere In the Armenian MassacreS-
Thinks the Worst Is Over.

LONDON, Feb. 1.-The banquet of
the Non-Conformist Unionist associa-
ton at the Hotel Metropole last night
was the occasion of an address by
the Marquis of Salisbury. prime min
lister and secretary Of state for foreign
affairs. In the course of his remarks
he said with reference to Venezuela:
81 have been held up as the de-
nouncer of the Monroe doctrine. AS a
matter of fact, although the Monroe
doctrine is no part of international
law, my dispatch to Mr.. Olney, the
secretary of state of the United States,
supported it. as rule of policy, in the
strongest and most distinct terms.
But when l stated in that dispatch
and reiterate now, that, as a rule OF
policy, we are the advocates of the
Monroe doctrine. we mean the Monroe
doctrine as President Monroe under
stood il. (Checrsl. In that sense you
will not find any more convinced sup
porters than We are.
Lord Salisbury then turned abrupt
ly to the Armenian question, and here
reproached the religious communities
with laboring under a mistake when
they supposed that England had
bound herself in honor to succor the
Armenians, which means to go to war
with the Sultan in order to force him to
govern the Armepians well. The Ber-
lin treaty, Lord Salisbury said, mere
ly bound the signatory powers that it
the Sultan promulgated certain re-
forms they would watch over the exc
cution of those reforms. Nothing
more. He did not think anyone could
interpret that as an undertaking to
go to war.
ssIf you ask why we have not inter
fered, 1 can only answer for England
that we could have threatened, what
may call annoyarces, in the Selling of
customs here and there. but when you
are dealing with the rising OF 4 whole
fanatical population against a popula-
ton with whom they have been at
bitter enmity for ages, and who are
situated in mountains far removed
from the seashore, you are decelving
yourselves il you imagine that Eng
lands arm. long as it is, could have
done anything in mitigation. Nothing
but military usurpation could have
done it. ana England does not possess
the power of military usurpation at
that distance.
II am not bound to answer the ques-
ton why Europe did not intervene. 1
say confidently that none of the pow
ers wished to interfere, and believe
that their view is that, with patience,
the Sultan's prestige, which is the only
power left in the country, will ulti-
mately re-establish order and allow in
dustry and commerce to take their
usual secure course. That is their
view of it, and it is our duty to give
the Sultan time. 1t is not for me to
pass Judgment on that view, but no
other remedy is suggested. 1t is some
encouragement to find that already
some degree of order is being restored.
If you do not act with the great pow
ers you must act against them. and
produce calamities far more awful and
terrible than the Armenian atrocities. I"
