Tho Icwa Democratic State conven-
tion. held Wednesday, came out flat
footed for free silver coinage. A mi
nority report from the platform COM
mittee, recommending a declaration In
favor Of the Single gold standard, was
defeated by vote Of 617ls to 2l61e,
The free silver coinage declaration OF
the convention was as follows;
The Democracy Of Iowa, in State
convention assembled, hereby reailirms
it's allegiance to the time-honored
Democratic doctrine OF bimetslism,
to the uso of both gold and silver as
primary money, and the coinage of
both at ratio without charge or limit.
1t is the demand OF this convention
that this doctrine Of the national Dem
ocratic party, If fairly and honorably
observed, requires the constant effort
OF every loyal Democrat to accomplish
the repeal of all laws heretofore enacted
through the fundamentally OF the Re.
publican party which do in letter and
spirit alike discriminate against silver
aud in favor OF gold, and the substitu-
tion therefor of affirmative legislation
which shall restore silver to equal
rights with gold in the mints and coin
age of the country
The only thing to be commended
about this declaration is the fact that
tho Iowa Democrats did not 60 beating
about the bush and deliver Themselves
of a meaningless straddle upon the
financial question. They are in favor
of the free coinage Of silver, and thoy
say so. The country knows exactly
where they stand.
But the action of tho Iowa Demo
Gratis should arouse sound money Dem
ocrats all over tho country to the ne
cessity for action, Tho National Demo
cratic Convention should be kept from
the control OF tho silver fanatics.
Should the national convention adopi
platform like unto that put forth il
Iowa, or should ii even compromise the
issue by an evasive, misleading declare
ton, the Democratic party will b.
doomed to certain defeat at the ensu
ing election. Only by making a plaiI
and unmistakable demand for sound
money through adherence to the pres
emit gold standard as basis for GU
national currency, and the nomination
of candidates whose names and record
will emphasize the demand, can tn
Democratic party hope to win in No
vember. But with such a platform
and such candidates, and with McKin
ley as the Republican candidate on al
"Ohio straddlen financial platform
the issue would not be doubtful one
The Democracy would surely triumph
Every effort, therefore, should b
made to keep the National Democrat
Convention straight on the money ques
tion. Its financial declaration wi
mean either victory or defeat for tn
party. To throw away the only chanc
for carrying the country would be ran
folly.

The New York State Association Of
Savings Banks, representing /, 700, 600
depositors and deposits OF more than

Gay. Among other matters disposed Of
the association unanimously adopted re.
solutions solemuly protesting against
any and ull efforts to change the gold
standard now existing for the currency
OF the country, and at1irms itA cor.
viction that "any departure from this
standard will not only impair the
prosperity Of the laboring classes, but
that the only classes or individuals to
be benefited would BIO the capitalist
and foreign investor, who would be
quick TO take advantage of the rise and
ultimate fall IN prices sure to follow
premium on gold.' They declared
that, in their Judgment, the future
prosperity Of the country and the well
fare OF the people demand not only
that the gold STANDARD shall be main
tanned, but the currency system now
In use shall be 80 changed and re-
modelled as to meet and adapt it to the
increasing needs Of commerce, and
equal in security and credit with the

civilized nations OF the earth. -

or ''Wall street sharks" but who are
directly interested 10 the welfare OF
the working people of the country.
Their patrons are men and women who
work for wages and slowly store their
savings, in little sums, 10 the care Of
these banks. Surely, tho opinions of
snch men should find favor with the
wage-workers. who would be the worst
sufferers should free silver coinage pre-

The Republican Nominations.

Republican primaries were held
throughout New Castle county, Satur-
day afternoon, when candidates for
sheriff, coroner, county treasurer and
county comptroller were nominated.
The contest was confined almost en-
tirely to the Higgins faction OF the
party, only ono Addicks follower-ox.
Marshal Mahaffy, who ran against
Finn for the sheriffalty nomination
being in the field. But even this failed
to draw out any considerable number
Of Addieks voters, SO that the regular
Republicans had things pretty much
to themselves.
1t was probably due to this fact that
the election was attended by less com
plants Of fraud than was the recent
contest for delegates to the Republican
State Convention. But, notwithstand
ing that it was Fort Of exclusive fam
lily affair, some of the disappointed ones
are crying out that they were cheated.
1t is doubtful, however, if there il
much room for Just complaint.
1t can be said in truth that in liz
personnel tho ticket nominated on Sat.
urday is an unusually good one. The
candidates are reputable citizens, ant
well qualified to capably perform the
duties of the various offices to which
they aspire. In this respect, il is thu
best ticket placed in the field by thu
New Castle county Republicans fol
many years.
There is a suggestion to the Demo
cratic voters in this fact. Let then
select the same kind Of a ticket a
their county primaries on the secont
Saturday in June. Then the peopl
will be well served, no matter whicl
party may win at the election.

1t is announced that ex-Goyerpor
Boies Of Iowa gives the high wages OF
farm laborers as his reason for favor

wages average about EDO per month, and
Mr. Boies claims that the prevailing
prices for farm products vii! not war

the free coinage Of silver he expects 10
get as much for his produce as at pres.

The Wichita, Kansas, Eagle is a

yocate OF the free and unlimited coin
age Of silver at the ratio of IL to !. Its
editor is delegate to tho Republican
National Conrention. Here ia what
the paper said editorially about Nc.
Kinley in a recent issue;
McKinley's votes and speeches have
always been upon tho side OF silver.
Logically high protectionist must be
for silver. No other candidate spoken
OF can show as satisfactory d record on
that question rs Mckinley. We arc
convinced that he will, as President,
never interpose veto AGAINST silver
nor urge any policy favoring a gold
standard, but that he viii 10 guided
by the will OF the American peoplo
upon tho money question rs IL linda
expression through their Senators and
Representatives in Congress. By the
sign that actb speak louder than words
10 Mckinley the friend OF silver. In
being the ffiend OF labor, which no
one denies, he cannot be agninst that
money which has been the money of
the poor man since time immemorial.
The kaglo has published McKinley's
record over and over again, on this
question. II will BIO recalled that in
the great debate on the silver pur-
chasing act in the House, he declared
II to be his conviction that sit Won Id
take all tho silver product Of the
United States, utilized for money pur.
poses and put into circulation for the
movement of the business of the
country.

him SO satisfactory 10 the advocates o.

this is what the advocates Of free
silver, in both parties, should do.

In closing an editorial article show
ing not only why Mckinley should be
defeated, but how he can be, last
weeks issue of Harpers Weekly says:
II business men realize the peril TO
their interests involved in the election
of such man as MIR. Mckinley; IL they
are conscious that in times like those
In which Mr.. Cleveland came to the
rescue of the country'e credit Mr.. Nc.
Kinley will be trying, in the words OF
his own Ohio platform, to copcoct such
Legislation as will secure the main
tenance of the pasities of values Of the
two metals;n II they will recall the
bargain which he made with the free
silver men that gave TO the country bis
tariff act and the panic OF ls95-Mr.
Mckinley will not be nominated. We
are convinced that his strength is
greatly over rated, and that the exercise
of common sense at 81. Louis will scat
ter his forces and clear the political at
masphere. There are anti McKinley
delegates even in the Statns whose four
delegates at largo are instructed to vote
for him, If the real friends OF sound
| money In the ST Louis convention will
unite against this candidate who dares
not express an opinion on the most i'm
portanr subject OF the campaign, his
| defeat will be assured on tho first bal
lot. The Republican party has spoken

its nomination must be the test OF its
sincerity, and il the candidate shall be
