AS speak so will | vote" So
declared Senator Teller, Of Colorado,
in the I. :. Senate on the 10Th ult.,
after vigorous speech in which he
formally announced his intention of
SeVering his connection with the Re-
publican party if il should commit
itself at the approaching National
Convention to the single gold stand
ard.
But MIR. Teller went further. IN
der the spur Of a statement from
Mr.. Sherman that the silver pur-
chasing law was a makeshift which
had been adopted to save the coun-
try from free coinage law, Mr.. Tel
Ter told some party secrets which re-
vealed some of the inside operations
connected with the passage of the
Mckinley bill. Mr.. Teller directly
stated that the Sherman silver pur-
chasing law was given to the silver
men in return for their support of
the Mckinley bill. In other words,
the Republicans, in order to get as
high protection and taxation as was
possible, paid to the silver men the
price of the purchase of 1000, 900
ounces Of silver month for nearly
thirty months. But for this deal,
the Mckinley bill would have been
loaded down with silver amend
ment, which President Harrison
would have vetoed, and, knowing
this, the silver men accepted the
compromise, which Senator Sher.
man offered them. This statement,
made in the open Senate, created a
genuine sensation and was not an
swered by Mr.. Sherman.
lie did not propose, he said, to let
Senator Sherman fool the people by
telling them that if the Mckinley
bill was re-onacted it would bring
prosperity. The Mckinley bill
would never be re-enacted, said Mr..
Teller, and if it was it would not
bring prosperity.
Traversing the country and
shouting" proceeded Mr.. Teller, sis
band of men who have labeled their
candidate the advance agent of
prosperity The people who look
to him as the savior will find they
have been deluded and deceived
The agent of prosperity is not in
sight and will not be in sight until
this system of finance of ours is

KNOCK OUT FOR CULLOM.-On
the 3Oth ult. the Republican State
convention of Illinois repudiated the
favorite son." Senator Cullom, and
instructed for Mckinley, This was
clear knock out for Cullom, and,
like Davis, Of Minnesota, he will
now retire. The tide for the cham
pion of legalized robbery seems to
be irresistible, and it now appears
that the st. Louis convention will
have little more to do than to certify
Mckinley as the choice of the Re-
publican masses-a poor choice in
our opinion. He who thinks that
the election of Mckinley will mean
a re-enactment Of the high tariff du-
ties fixed in the Mckinley bill viii
be disappointed.
