KELLY ON COtCORD.

Editor Kelly of the Journal thinks
that some of the original goldbug Re-
publicans should have first chance
at the pie counter. He says:
Ex-Governor Colcnrd has sent the
following message to Mr.. Mckinley,
President elect:
The few Republicans in Nevada ex-
tend sincere thanks and hearty con-
gratulations to u gallant leader and
the Republicans OF the great East for
having saved Us from dishocor, re-
pudiation aud perniciOuS heIesies Of
Populism.
Isn't that an irresistible appeal for a
stall at the public crib? Think of it.
1t was made by a man who was
elected on a Tree coinage platform,
and who six months ago in a Repub-
lican State Convention at Virginia
City insisted on declaring for free
coinage at n ratio Of Is to /. Are
snch men deserving the respect or
confidence Of their fellow citizens?
One day they declare for the interests
of the State aud nation and the next
for the mere char &c Of getting some
federal pap they proclaim themselves
pledge breakers who have not the
slightest regard for principle and who
would betray the people for a feed at
the public crib. There are a few Re-
puhlicans in the State who always ad-
vocated the single gold standard and
to them should be allotted the federal
for principle.

AN ENGLISH VIEW.

The Saturday Review in an article on
the election says:
Putting aside the silver question, Mr..
Mckinley is just the man to a%ccentuate
the grievances which created the Populist
party. His G~overnorship of Ohio is adj
mitted to have been grotesque to the
verge of pathos. Unless all signs fail, he
will be as wax in the hands of the great
trusts and monopolies, just as the Con
gress elected with him will be eager to
re-enact the prohibitive tariff which the
manufacturing rings have paid for in
enormous advances to the Mckinley cam
paign fund. These things produced the
revolt in 1892, and a still more impressive
uprising may be expected in 1900.

The universal adoption Of the shor
woman kind at large. according to DR.
Fanny W. Oakley Of Brooklyn, N. Y.
DR.. Oakley has been a constant rider
of the wheel since 1883, and has prob
ably advocated the use of the bicycle
for women as a health measure for a
longer period than any other oma
in the United States. Il frequently
shop in my bicycle costume" she said,
"and, while much staring and often
audible comment greet me, yet l think
if the costume were universally adopt
ed it would soon cease to be noticeable.
AS to its merits there can be DO doubt
and no iona who has experienced
the freedom and comfort of the short,
light skirt will willingly return to the
long, heavily lined skirt which fash
ion now prescribes.
Those who think the Silver party is
dead in Nevada will find it the liveli-
est stiff two years from now that they
ever undertook to put under the sod.
Neither the Republican party, the
Democratic nor the Popuiist party
will cut the least figure in any State
election in Nevada until the Silver
party has accomplished its ends-the
restoration of silver to its proper place
a. a money metal.-Dayton Times.
