remaining days Of this session to pn-
vate bills and the necessary public legis-
iation.
This is the legislative day Of Saturday
last and tho House IS still proceeding un-
der the supervision Of the rules but the
chair, Cir. Payne, OF New York;, de-
cided to recognize Judge Daniels on
question Of privilege and allow the Al
rlch-UrCerwood case TO De called.

splendid leadership of Mr.. McMillin, OF

This would leave the gold ticket As
votes TO procure to make an election,
and it would leave the silver ticket "a
votes TO procure TO produce the same
result which would be a great start for
the gold ticket. It will be observed that
this estimate gets all Of its 176 votes ex-
cept as from the New England States,
New York Pennsylvania, Delaware, New
Jersey. and Maryland. 1t gets the &c
from Minnesota. Wisconsin. Ohio. and
South Dakota. 1t would be surprising
indeed if anyone Of these States went for
free silver. If the gold ticket should
carry, in addition. Illinois, Indiana, and
Iowa. It would be elected. We have no
doubt that it will carry all three OF
them.
But the Post gives n great deal TO
the doubtful column that we have no idea
to be doubtful. 1t puts Kentucky in the
doubtful column and Missouri in the
silver column, when the indications all
point to both States going for the gold
ticket. 1t puts Virginia in the doubtful
column. when the probabilities are that
Virginia will go for the gold ticket, bar
ring fraudulent elections.
Indeed, our analysis Of the case is
this: The Democratic party, in adopting
free silver as its platform. will become
a revolutionary party. seeking to over
throw the settled order in all matters of
money, and set up an entirely changed
and new order; that will carry in it,
wake ruin and destruction spread broad
cast over the land. The Republican
party will be simply defending the nc
tual and existing order Of things. In that
contest, all that part Of the population
that desires an overthrow Of the es-
tabnshcd order will cooperate the De
mocracy while all that part Of the popu-
lation that loves rest and quiet and that
believes that prosperity flows out Of os-
tablished order and regular procedure
will either. from old associations. alb
stain from the contest or so with the
Republican party. If Democracy adopts
free silver as It's platform, it will be al
most immateriai what language the Re
pnblicans use in their platform or
what man they nominate. The logic
of events will settle the contest. and
not the verbiage Of the platform or the
man that ytJnls on it. The enc party VIII
be attacking the settled order. the other
will be defending It. and all the revoiu-
tlonists will be upon the one AIDE while
tho friends of order will be upon the
other. We have no more doubt OF what
the result viii be than we have that two
and two are four. The Democratic party
on such lines will suffer a decisive de-
feat. -..s-i -"
