BURKE COCHRAN, New York's
eloquent democratic orator, dis
sected Bryan's Madison Square
acceptance on Tuesday night.
He had 1900 listeners, 5000
more than Bryan had, and, unlike
Bryan's audience, all remained to
hear the speaker through. Bryan,
with 10000 words, did not seem
to say much of anything, while
Mr.. Cochran, in one-fourth as
many words, forcibly showed the
fallacy of popocrat doctrine, and
that free silver is dishonest even
though many who uphold it are
sincere in their belief that it is
right and best.

Announcement Of Charles A. Dana.

"The Chicago platform invites us
to establish currency which will
enable man to pay his debts with
half as much property as he would
have to use in order to pay them
now. This proposition is dishonest.
l do MT say that all the advocates of
free coinage of silver are dishonest.
Thousands of them, millions, if there
be SO many, are doubtless. honest in
intention. But am unable to recon.
cile with any ideal integrity change
in the law which will permit man
who has borrowed q hundred dollars
to pay his debt with u hundred dol.
lars each one of which is worth only
half as much as each dollar he re.
ceived from the lender.
1.-The Chicago platform sanctions
the use of the appointing power of
the president in such a way us to
control the federal judiciary in de.
Gliding questions of constitutional
law. 1t contemplates change in
the personnel of the supreme court
OF the United States to the end that
the recent decision declaring the in
come tax unconstitutional may be
reversed. Strange times, indeed, are
these, when a man is told that in
order to be democrat he must favor
the imposition of an income tax and
the destruction of the independence
of the judiciary!
"Still more alarming is the clearly
implied approval of lawless violence
contained in the denunciation of
what is denominated in the platform
government by Injunction Yelled
in the language of moderation, the
wild light of anarchy shines through.
SIN my opinion, without reviewing
the Chicago platform further, the
declaration III regard to the cur.
rency. the supreme court, and the
income tax, and the repression of
forcible lawlessness by the aid of in.
functions, are enough to demand its
rejection by all good citizens and the
defeat of the candidates who stand
upon it.
II regret exceedingly to find a dis.
position quite prevalent to array the
west against the east in the discus.
sion of these matters. l see no occa.
sion for making our differences sec.
tional. Here there is no political
hostility toward the west. such as is
expressed toward the east by some
western newspapers and public
speakers. Good citizens can perhaps
best aid the cause of honest money
and law and order by devoting more
time to rational arguments and less
to inefficient abuse.''
GAIL questions relating to the tariff
have become Insignificant for the
time being, in view of the possibil.
ity, however slight, that the abhor.
rent principles of the Chicago plat.
form may prevail. The duty aud the
necessity to compass the final over.
throw of that platform by assisting
in the defeat of William j. Bryan
are most imperative and solemn.
This may most certainly be accom-.
plished by voting for the electors
pledged to the support of William
Mckinley; but 1 have no quarrel
with any democrat who adopts any
other course which seems to him
equally well adapted or better
adapted to the same end.

sw,tzerland and Her mnitia.

If the change could be made from
the system of standing armies to that
Of a true militia of the Swiss type, a
long step toward enduring peace would
be made. In military system Of this
nature the soldier and the citizen would
be identical when put in the field; the
men would take with them that quality
of the household which makes the
Swiss soldier an admirable home guard,
but not to be considered for distant ag-
gressive warfare. In such condition
the military motive in it's dangerous
form would speedily die out; all danger
of it's leading to wars of political ma
ture could be left to the increasing
development of the domestic spirit, that
humor which makes men very willing
to sacrifice for their ideals, but exceed
ingly indispoSed to die for purposes
which they do not value. If the armed
forces of governments should be
brought to the admirable state in which
they are established in Switzerland, the
discreet philanthropis& might well be
satisfied to go no further. In the exist
ing conditions Of society, and. for all
we can foresee, in any highly organized
society whatsoever, there will always
be need Of using well-organized force
to restrain the large part Of the popula-
ton who are willing to seek their ends
By violence, There IS no other way to
retain the good which has been won, or
to win that which is before Us, save by
the law, and the sanction of the Law
is in strength. 1t is a sense of this
truth which goes far to justify the ex-
istence Of the great standing armies in
the minds Of many judicious persons,
who fail to see that a well-organized
militia can be made as effective in at
tanning the same valuable end.-North
American Review.

IT may be fattering and exquisltely
delightful to the vanity of certain in
dividuals to have their names men
toned as possible candidates for gov
ernOr, but it strikes US that every one
should be careful not to recommend
anyone who has not earned such dis
atinction. The executive chair of this
state is the greatest gift the people of
this commonwealth have to bestow
1t should therefore be reserved for the
most meritorious. One cannot have
earned honors unless he has served,
and to gain the top, he should have
served in the several branches faithful
ly, and should have shown that he
possessed qualities better than those of
his contemporaries. To push the err
rand boy into the management of a
large concern after only one days serv-
ice and service confined to one kind,
destroys reward for faithful perform
ance, and at one blow prostr&tes zeal
to do well. A governor should be a
ripe man. A one-half formed, or a
quarter ripe man is a dangerous person
for any party to make use Of We
have in fact been having some expert
ence Of the results of not being sufi
GENTLY particular in our selection of a
candidate. The next time, we need a
man, a full grown man, one who is not
picayune, or narrow or disgustingly
selfish. We want broad minded
statesman, who is equipped to step
into the governors Office and admins
ter the affairs of the state as they
should be cared for.

High Price of Coal.

Anthracite coal is great deal
dearer in July, 1896, than in August,
1894 Between July, 1890, and Au-
gust, 1894, the duty on soft coal was
rs cents per ton; in August, 1894, it
was reduced to 40 cents. Anthracite
coal always has been duty free. and
none of it ever has been imported, and
this from the simple fact of there be-
ing none that can be imported, the
United States having practical mo-
nopOly of It's production
But the democrats told us that the
high price of anthracite was caused by
the high duty on soft coal. Their
statement was in this wise: The Is
cents duty on soft coal is a tax added
to the price of it; remove the duty and
the price will be less by 80 cents, and
when coal falls 80 or Is cents per ton,
then anthracite will fall in like ratio.
The statement was absurd, but most
democratic statements are absurd.
However, the people in 1892 were in a
humor for listening to democratic
absurdities The democrats elected
a congress and president, and passed
tariff bill that, among other things,
reduced the duty on soft coal by 35
cents.
Three results have followed: Wages
have fallen in coal mines, the price Of
soft coal has not been cheapened to
the purchaser at retail, and the price
of anthracite has been increased
greatly.
All this goes to prove that coal
tariff is not ga tax" and also that
trusts are not creatures of tariff. =

The Real Currency Contractionisrs.

While the silverites are bowling
themselves hoarse over gold standard
contraction of the currency the people
who believe in steadily expanding
volume of money should keep in mind
the fact that free coinage at Is to 1
would be the greatest contraction
measure Of the age. It would put the
country on a single silver standard
would drive gold out Of use, would
brighten investors into withdrawing
loans, would make It impossible for the
government to redeem it's paper obli-
cations in coin of any kind, would
cause the suspension of banks by Great
ing panic among depositors, and by
establishing precedent for the repudi-
atleR OF debts would greatly curtail the
operations OF our present credit system.
II currency contraction is an evil, the
people who favor expansion should
vote to sustain the present system of
gold and silver, under which the vol
ume of money has increased from S1S
in 1873 to $23 at the present time.

So FAR in the campaign lKenosha
politicians have had no especial choice
in the matter of gubernatorial candl4
dates excepting perhaps a slight pre-
ference for Elliott or Scofeld, but now
it transpires that the first district is to
have a candidate in the person of
James G.. Monaghan, of Darlington,
and of course this will put different
aspect upon the political situation in
this county, being matter of local pride
as we'll as paying acknowledgment to a
worthy man, it will probably please the
rep blicans of Kenosha county to do all
they can to assist in the nomination of
Mr.. Monaghan. He was candidate
before the convention two years ago
and developed considerable strength
and again this year he is to go before
the convention as a candidate free
from all political entanglements, and
one upon whom all the several
factions can unite when they discover
that the nomination Of their favorites
is impossible. If the first district, as a
unit, will stand by Mr.. Monaghan, his
chances are today equal to those Of
any other candidate yet mentioned.

There will be millions of mad farm
ers, workingmen, clerks and profess
sional men when they go to draw their
little savings out of bank after we
have gone, or decided to go, to a sill
YER basis, should we foolishly decide to
go there via the 16 to 1 short line.
The 4,875,519 depositors, who have ST.
810,597, 023 in savings banks, would all
suddenly conclude to withdraw their
savings and convert them into gold be-
fore we should drop to the silver basis.
Only a small percentage could obtain
their deposits before the doors of the
banks would close. The great major
ity of depositors would have to wait
until we had actually reached silver
basis before they could withdraw their
deposits, and this picture shows the
kind of money they would obtain. It
will not be the fault of the bank Off
GERS if the banks are unable to return
as good money as they received. They
have loaned the banks funds out at
interest and, except where officers
have suspected the honest intentions
of their country and inserted the gold
clause in mortgages, the banks them
selves would have to accept depreci-
ated dollars in return for the full value
dollars loaned. They will, therefore,
have only cheap dollars to return to
their depositors. These depositors,
then, are the real creditor class of the
country. Instead of being few and
wealthy, there are over 100000 of
them having deposits in all kinds OF
banks and in building and loan asso-
