Mr.. Mckinley made speech at
his home several evenings ago, to a
delegation of colored men who called
on him. Among other things he
said:-That we wantin this country
neither cheap money nor cheap labor,
and nothing that comes from abroad
can be cheap to the American people
when it entails idlsnsss upon our own
workingmen. He also said that if by
free coinage was meant fifty three.
cent dollar, then it is not an honest
dollar. and if it means dollar equal
to the gold dollar, then it would bs
no cheaper than the gold dollar, and
as difficult to get. There are declar.
otions, the longer you think of them,
the larger they grow.

to nominate q stale ticket. The
conservative wing of the democracy
will hold a national convention in In.
dianapolis to nominate q candidate
for the Presidency. The conserva-
tives cannot stand the revolutionary
purposes of the Bryrn, Wstson-Se-
wall one head and two tail ticket.
The republican party is in favor of
sound money, gold, silver and paper,
az we now have it, and it is in favor
of silver as redemption money, if the
European nations will agree to make
silver with gold redemption money.
The Bryan wing of the democracy is
in favor of the free coinage of silver
regardless of Europesn action, which
would drive gold out of tho country
for the use Of foreigners and leave
only silver for the Americans. Vote
the republican ticket and help to
keep gold here for Americans. Why
drive gold out of tho United States!
Why hand it over to foreigners.
The political paint that was smeared
on Bryan and then labeled democracy,
can't conceal Mr.. Bryan's political
identity. A large percentage of the
democratic party will not vote for
him. They can't stand the platform
that he stands on. 1t is not demo-
cratic. If the democrats can't stand
him how can the republicans stand
him. He is many times less arepub-
lican than democrat. To vote for
him is to vote for a man who is not a
democrat or a republican, but can
didate avowing government princi-
Piles, which if put into practice will
make times many times worse than
they now are.

THE GLASS OF ,oo.

A thoughtful gentleman has asked us what the next class that enters Yale will do about it's number. The question is a perpleXing one. Usually the class number consists of the last two figures of the number of the year of our Lord with an apostrophe before them. In this way easy and euphonious shouting can be done for '96, '97, '9S or '99. These mum bers can also be drunk down" with ease and dispatch. But if the usual custom were to be followed what could be done with 200? The number might suit the Sophomores of next year, and be considered by them a most fitting designation of the Freshman class. But what would suit the Sophomores of course wouldn't suit the Freshmen. The next class will never be will ing to admit that one cipher would be it's fitting mark. And to label it with two ciphers would se looked on as adding insult to injury. And there are very practical as well as sentimental difficulties in the way of calling the class "the class of '0O." The class would find difficulty in "hollering' for double nothing, and it would be very unsatisfactory to drink down" double nothing, although it would perhaps be better for some of it's members to drink down. double nothing than to drink down what they will drink down. It would be hard to musically say, Here's to good old '00," and the Zip! Boom! Ans! and the Rah! Rah! Rahs! would go rather incongruously with double nothing and an apostrophe. Neither can much be done in the mu- sical or the Zip! and Rah! line with 1900.
 Connecticut is full of inventions and inventors. Will not one of the invent ors invent fit and harmonious number for the class of 1900? Something that can be said, shouted and sung with ease and with euphony. Double nothing will not do for the next class. If wont be adequate to describe what will doubtless be the most famous class of Yale, except the famous class of '53, than which no class has been or ever can be more famous world without end Amen!

4 MODERN MIRACLE.
question

Power generated at Folsom, Califor- nia, is now used in Sacramento, and this is said to be the longest and most important electric transmission scheme now generating about 5000 horse power, which is used in Sacramento for general commercial purposes, for street rail lines, city lighting, railroad shops, mills, elevators, hotels, factories and the like. One customer is installing five non- synchronous motors to replace steam engines, and claims to have figured a saving of forty per cent by the new power, the cost of which, delivered, is not stated. The entire electric equip ment presents features of great inter- est. The turbines are connected with the largest generators yet built, and the electricity is generated at voltage of S00 It is there stepped up' by transformers to pressure of Il 900 volts and passes out over the line. Sev- enteen miles away, at the Sacramento station, the 11,000 voltage is stepped down. to pressures of from 800 to 115 volts, according to the use proposed, and sold to customers. The loss in transmission is figured at only 7.5 per cent, this remarkably low percentage being the result, in part at least. of the high pressure of the transmitted cur rent. It is said to be far less than the loss on ordinary short distance com mercial lines or in general electric rail road service.
 Only a few days ago the roar of Niagara Falls could be heard in New York city. It may not be long before the power of the Falls is felt there.

satin ribbon. It's jacket bodice has a short ripple basque that is slashed at
 the side seams to allow the open fronts to end in sharp points. The ribbon drapery that ornaments the fronts is fastened with small gold buttons. | Each end of ribbon terminates in a
 long bow at the sides, and the sleeves
 are also trimmed with bands and loops
 of ribbon, turned back cuffs finishing them
 On the evening gowns ribbons place is as conspicuous as ever. Suspenders of spangled ribbon, connected back and front by cross pieces and elaborately finished over the shoulders and along the cross pieces, are still offered as &C.,
 cessory elaboration for gowns that are
 cut low The off-shoulder evening
 gown is still popular for pretty should CTS, though ribbon straps over the shoulders are usually added and cer- tainly don't attract a bit from the beautiful contour. Regarding dancing gowns two reports are out; one that they should be short, the other that they must be trained. In these cir cumstances it seems as if every one ought to be suited. Trains will mean lots of trouble for the dancers and a harvest for the dressmakers; while with short dresses the girls with pretty ankles and feet will again have a chance to show them without having all the big footed rivals say, 'She cuts off her skirts just to show how small
 shoe she wears" FLORETTE.

Ministerial Crowding.
what Can be Done to Prevent I

What Can be Done to Prevent It. To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 The crowded condition of the minis try among our Congregational churches being an indisputable fact the call for a remedy becomes imperative. But is there remedy? Or is the fnalady in- curable? Can anything be done to re- lieve the situation?
 Very little can be done probably, for many of those who are now suffering from the natural consequences of the professional crowding which prevails. Like their brethren in other avocations, they must make the best of the situa- ton, and put their trust in Him whose mercies are never failing, and who feeds even the sparrows.
 As preventive of undue crowding in the ministerial profession hereafter, the following would certainly be help ful, viz:
 CD More care in organizing new churches, and more courage to declare old ones dead and buried when they have become practically extinct.
 @ A higher grade of ability, both natural and acquired, as an indispensa- ble condition for admission into the Christian ministry.
 Church wise, this remedy could best be administered probably by our mis- sionary societies, state and national, through their agents, superintendents md afccst ri A IfNya f 1sa1 church should be promptly planted wherever one is really needed, but the fact of it's need should first be clearly established. A list of the Congrega- tional churches which have become ex- tinct in this country within the last twenty years, and of those which are as good as dead now would go far to show that we have often been more zealous than wise in this matter. It is well to be denominationally jealous, provided we are also denominationally wise, and plant no churches except where the need for them will insure their permanency and growth.
 Ministerial-wise, the remedy could best be administered, CD By the churches. CD By the Faculties of our
 
 ministerial associations. (4) By or daining and installing councils.
 It would be ''new departure" of course, and one far reaching in it's con- sequences, probably for our churches to undertake in a formal way to select candidates for the gospel ministry. But inasmuch as they always have ex- ercised, and undoubtedly always will exercise their inalienable right to reject men as preachers of the gospel even af- ter they have gone through the long and expensive course of preparation, yea, even after they have received or dination, and have acquired more or less experience in their chosen profes- sion, would it not be far wiser, and more Christian for them to exercise their right at an earlier date? That is to say, would it not be wise for our churches in their conference relation to select. and to encourage suitable young men to prepare for the gospel ministry, and not to suffer that important mat ter to take care of itself as at present? :? The effect of such course would be

SIDES OF THE sILTER QUESTION


 One of the plainest statements of one side of the silver question that have been made was uttered by Hon. John w. Bookwalter, the millionaire politi- elan of Ohio, few days since. Accord ing to MT. Bookwalter, the agricultural class of the West and South are prej'l- diced against the East. They are not simply working to secure sales of sil- yer from the mines of the far West for the benefit of the mine owners. "The West and South,'' this silver capitalist declares, to-day stand in the same relation to the eastern States that nearly all countries bear to Eng land, the great creditor nation of the globe, whose interest in fighting to maintain the single gold standard is too plain to need argument. Now, why should 6o,oOO.oO0 people give way to l2,- 0O0, ,OOO?"
 Sure enough. And now just read the IOilOWlnS rom the 1artrOrd Times: The great and lively West is indebted to Connecticut to the amount of over a hundred millions of dollars. This great West would like to pay it, if at all, with dollars that are worth no more than 53A cents each. Western delegates may leave all the party conventions, if they choose to do so, and consider a 53A cent dollar of more value than the cause of temperance; but let them rest assured that they cannot float more bonds in this region of thin soil, unl sss the word "gold' is plainly printed in them. Interest and principal payable in gold'' You may abandon all the party conventions, tear your hair and play "new party" as much as you please, but you cannot get rid of that if you procure any more money here There are several sides to the silver question

Every little while the British Museum attaches resurrect some of their snail specimens to show how long the spark of life remains in their apparently life less bodies. One that had been glued to card for four years was as lively as ever after being immersed in warm water recently, but they have been re- vived after they had apparently been dead for fifteen years.
