Mr.. Jackson and his comrades went last sum-

tionay clear they could see an unknown land
far off to the northwest. Toward II they MADE
their way. They passed Cape Ludlow and cape
I.ofey both of which are indicated on existing
maps though nothing beyond them. They went
on to the beyond Soon after passing Cape i-oi-
lev they bcheld one of the most majestic spec
tacles they had ever known. There was great
white headland, rising sheer from the stormy
waves. At its base il presented vertical wall

FRANCO RUSSIAN NEGOTIATIONS.

Amid ali the alliances and cOunter-alliances
of European diplomacy In the last two CEN
,uries, il is something more than passing
strange that the one now concluded should be
the frs. and only real alliance between France
and Russia. especially in view OF the fact that
toward France the desires and advances Of
Russia have from the first been most directed.
Yet such, as a writer in "The Pail Mall Ga
Zette' points out, is literally the fact. That
which was denied TO at least half dozen Of
the most famous Russian sOverelgns has been
granted to the young and untried Nicholas IL.
That which was impossible under BOnapartist
Emperors and Bourbon and Orleanist Kings
has come to pass under the "bOurgeos' Presi-
dent. NJ Felix Faure. Truly. from the old
time point Of view. such a consummaiOn has
Knocked the counsel Of the wise and the vaor
Of the brave"
Not until the time Of Peter the Great was
an alliance Of Russia with any Power of West
ern Europe seriously considered. But with
Peters accession. many negotiations to that end
began. Peters own first wish was for n French
alliance. which he aimed to effect by marrying
his daughter Elizabeth TO Louis XIV. But the
guardians Of the young King would not assent
TO the match. Elizabeth, on coming to the
throne which, by the way. she did largely
through the aid Of the French Ambassador re-
newed the project of a French alliance. but
was bafiled first by the preference Of her
chief Minister for an English alliance. and
finally by the misconduct Of the French Am
bassador Catherine was always hostile to
France because at the beginning Of her reign,
the French Ambassador declined to do her some
small yet important favor. Her son, the mad
man Paul, inherited her hatred Of France. But
Bonaparte. then Consul, by the employment Of
some particularly scurvy agents, succeeded In
winning his favor. But Just as Paul was about
to make league with France and invade In

GILLISS LAID REBOUND

Another Arctic mystetr seems TO have been
solved this year in the redscovery Of the elusive
Gillis's Land. This was achieved by the So
called Jackson-H -Harmsworth Expedition which
for several years has been exploring Franz
Josef Land and the adjacent rtvions; the same
expedition with which DR.. Nansen effected a
junction on his homeward journey. Gllis's Land.
It may be recalled, was first sighted BY the Dutch

WHAT TICKLES YOU so?
Do You See How the Palmer Buck
ner Advocates, ex 0fficio
Democrats,
WHAT TICKLES YOU so?

Are making love to and forming al
liances with those men upon whom
until recently they poured their falls
of wrath?
We are not abusing the Republi-
cans, but, really, 1t is amusing to see
how the Republicans are using these
OK Democrats. Perhaps. too, The Re-
pm olicans feel sorry for these Palmer
Buckner men who are so opposed to
dishonor, reputation and anarchists,
especially when an imported speaker
comes to town. Without the Rcpub-
licans these men will show up few and
far between.
In speaking of the campaign Re-
publican recently said to an ADVOCATE
man that there was no need for tie
Republicans to have many speaker,
because the Palmer-Buckner men
were doing their work and yet the
claim is made that the principles of
true Democracy must be maintained.

Mr. Carlisle was Egged at Coving
ION.

1t would seem from what we can
gather that few eggs were thrown
at Mr.. Carlisle and there was an at
tempt made TO interfere with his
speaking. Whatever the disturbance
wa, we are indeed sorry that it oc-
curred. There is a law against such
disturbances and were il enforced in
few instances it would be lesson to
the reckless who think it is smart to
dishonor public speaking. Mr.. Car
isle had right to speak in Coving-
ton and if the tough element did MOI
wan, to hear him 1t was their privilege
to STAY away. We have no patience
with such a mob and few days in
i,il would be a great lesson for them.
What that claas did on that occasion
should not be charged to the Demo-
cratic party, any more than ehould
that disturbance of Mr.. Bryan al
New Haven be charged to the Repub-
lican party.
The Courier-JOurnal and other
Wall Street organs were attempting
10 make much capital out of j., but
sensible men will not be influenced by
them There are bad men in all par
ties but they do not compose the par
ties and their actions are deplored b
all good citizens. The issues Of the

heaplng up abuse. The issue is be-
fore The people and must be settled by

In every instance, after period OF
experience, the de-
mands of commerce and of common
sense have forced a return to the nor
NAL and proper system of bimetallism'
There is not in the whole of history
an instance where the return to bi-
metallism from any other system has
brought disaster or failed to promote
prosperity. There is not recorded In
history a single instance where for
long, or even short period, gold mon
ometallism has promoted the interest
of the masses. We have tested the
gold standard for twenty-three years.
During that period we have had two
great bank panics, and we are now
suffering from industrial paralysis.
The only prosperity we have known
during this period was from 1878 to
1898, while we were enjoying semb-
lance of bimetallism, which gave
promise of securing to commerce
gradually expanding volume of legal
tender bimetallic money to meet Its
growing needs. Our prosperity ceased
Just as soon as ii became apparent That
this counterfeit of bimetallism could
40 Ionoar ha maintained. The gold
advocates claim that cold monomet-
allism is new thing in the world
and argue that it is a kind OF "sur'
yival Of The flttest." History un
masks the emptiness of that claim
and shows that gold monometallism il
no more a new thing than the idolatr!
of pagan gods, and that bimetallism
no more Old-fashioned than Christian
ity,
