NEW YORK, Sept. 23.-Captain Cox,
of the British steamer Dulwitch, which
has just arrived from Iloilo, Philippine
islands, via Delaware breakwater, re-
ported an attempt on the part of one
of the ships boys to poison all hands
by putting vermillion paint in the
coffee.
1t was last Sunday morning, when
the steamer was lying inside the Della
ware breakwater, awaiting her order
to proceed, that the cook, going sud-
deuly into the galley from the deck,
caught the ships boy, Robert Peacock,
acting In very peculiar manner. Pea
cock who is about IL years old, had
been whipped the night before by Cap
tain Cox for stealing and lying.
The cook was suspicious, and upon
investigating found what appeared to
be lump Of vermillion paint in the
bottom Of the cotfee-pot, from which
all hands were soon to be supplied with
coffee for breakfast. He at once re-
ported the matter to the captain, who
determined to turn the boy over to the
authorities, but his orders to sail were
imperative, and so he brought him
along to this port. Peacock halls from
near London. He has quite frank
expression and does not look capable
of such deed he has been Is months

1T WILL NOT DOWN.

The gold press of the country main
tain that the present unsettled state of
business and prevailing low prices in
the United States are the result of the
agitation of the silver question. and
offer as an only remedy the election of
Mckinley and the retaining of the
present financial policy, or more plain
ly, continuation of four more years of
agitation and uncertainty. If they
imagine the silver question will down,
they reckon without reason. No sooner
than the polls shall close on November
Sd, if Mckinley is elected, the cam
paign of silver will be resumed.
The great mass of producers in Amer
lea are as much in earnest in their de-
mands for the reconciliation of silver
as were the abolitionists sixty years
ago, when they began their clamor for
the freeing of the human slaves of the
South. When little handful of pa
triots began demanding the freedom of
the colored slaves away back in 1886,
they were called cranks and fanatics,
and the two great parties, the demo-
cratic and whig, in their national plat
forms denounced the agitation as being
dangerous TO the interest of the gov
ernment and tending to disturb busi-
ness. These denuuciations, however,
did not deter the advocates of human
freedom, and as result the whig party
had to give place to the republican
party in 1860.
The great producing masses of this
nation are just as earnest in their de-
mands today for their emancipation
from the yoke of gold as were those
abolitionists, and nothing short of the
opening of the mints to the free and
unrestricted coinage of both silver and
gold will satisfy their demands. The
republican party would continue this
demand, and the consequent uncer-
tainty and lack of confidence resulting
therefrom another four years, while
their opponents would settle the ques-
tion at the polls on November Sd.
Which do the already oYer-burdened
people desire, four years of unsettled
business or an immediate return to
prosperity?

GRANT ON SILEEK.

Jesse e. Grant, son of General q. S.
Grant, gives the following as some of
his reasons for favoring free coinage ;
~ believe heartily in the great ad-
vantage to this country of the free
coinage of silver. 1t does not mean
reputation of our debts at home or
abroad. We could not pay our debts
with both gold and silver, even if we
had it all. Our mortgages equal the
enormous sum of $40, 900 900. 200. These
debts viii have to be paid in produce,
and anything that will raise the value
of this will, 1 believe, benefit all
classes. If we can double the price of
the silver rupee we have doubled the
price of wheat that comes into compe-
tition with our wheat and therefore
double our wheat as to it's debt paying
capacity. The argument holds good
in the silver peso of the Latin
American countries, and as to the
price of our meats and live stock. 1t
holds good, too, in the silver 'ruble,'
and as to the price of oil. It holds
good in many ways too numerous to

d SCRAP OF HISTORY.

Senator John Sherman, who was the
agent through whose efforts the coin
age law of 1873 was passed, took an
early opportunity to show that the de-
monetization of silver was influenced
by Great Britain. In a speech de-
livered on March 6, 1876 (see page 14Sl,
Congressional Globe, 44th congress,
first session, volume 4, part p he said.
"Our coinage act came into opera
tion on the 1st of April, 1873, and con-
stituted the gold one-dollar piece the
sole unit of value. while it restricted
the legal tender of the new silver trade
dollar and the half-doliar and subdi-
visions to an amount not exceening S.
in one payment, thus the double stand
ard previously existing was finally
abolished, and the United States as
usual was influenced hy Great Britain
in making gold coin the only standard.
This suits England, but does not suit

guished writer and bulliouist, who is
now here and has given great atteu-
tion to the subject of mints and coin
age, after examining the first draft of
this bill, made various sensible sug
gestions, which the committee adopted
and embodied in this bill"
The Chronicle says no explanation
was made by Mr.. Hooper why Mr..
Seyd was before the committee or how
he came to be in America, and all the
information it has of the reason of his
mission to America it gains from the
following which appeared in the Au-
gust, 1873, number of the Bankers
Gazette.
In 1872 silver was being demonetiz-
ed in France, Germany, England and
Holland, capital of el00.000 was
raised and Ernest Seyd, of London,
was sent to this country with this fund
as the agent of the foreign bond hold
ers and capitalists to effect the same
object, which was successful"

QUESTIONS HIS TERAClTY.

The Portland Telegram, the evening
annex to the Oregonian, has of late
swallowed every statement made by
Major McEinnl nlohaIs aaspa1 TRUTHS, but
at last itl
economical of the truth. and virtually
accuses him of willfully lying. The
Telegram says editorially:
"Major McKinley's speech to the
Pennsylvania steel-workers who visited
him yesterday at Canton was all right
in its reference to the money ques-
tion, but its tariff illusions were
hardly accurate. 1t cannot be said
with truth that any factories have
been closed or men thrown out of en-
ployment by the present tariff law.
That law did not go into operation
until August, 1894, while the panic
that crippled industry occurred in the
summer of 1S93 There is no official
record of the factories closed and men
made idle by that panic, and the figures
quoted by Major Mckinley were pre-
pared by New York partisan news
paper. In the absence of authentic
data as to the cause of the panic, it
would be much more reasonable to
ascribe it to the monetary distur-
Dances created by the silver scare than
to tariff law which did not go into
operation until year later"
Comment is hardly necessary, for
the Telegram puts it about strong
enough when it says Major Mckinley
takes his data from statistics prepared
by a New York partisan paper, and
then shows the inacuracy (falseness)
of the statement. The Telegram hav-
shown him to be inaccurate (false) in
one statement might we'll have applied
the old rule of evidence, which is
''false in one point, false in all, )" and
with like complacency questioned the
authenticity of all his statements. even
those on the money question.

EDITORIAL NOTES.

The republican platform takes the
ground that bimeJalism is desirable,
but This is not the time to get it. Any
thing that is good for the people
should be adopted at once.
The republican platform declares
that we must maintain our present
financial policy, not until we get tired
of it, but until foreign nations get
tired of it and consent for us make a
chOnge.
If bimetalism is good thing why
not have it at once by opening our
mints to the unrestricted coinage of
silver?. If it is bad thing why does
the republican platform advocate it's
adoption when the consent of other
nations can be secured !?
'Of course, there never has been
any doubt of McKinley's election"
says the Oregonian. Then what is the
Oregnnian and the rest of the republi-
can party making such fuss for? If
MoKinley's election is insured why
are they putting SO much money into
the campaign2
1t is not the campaign in New York
that is interesting the voters of Ore
gon at this time, but the campaign
here. We have enough to DO to look
after our own interests without de-
termiring if it is consistent for demo-
Gratis to vote for John Boyd Thatcher
for governor of New York.
If our present financial policy is to
be maintained, if gold is 20 be the only
money good enough for government
use when ID pays the bondholders and
noteholders, then this government, if
run by those who believe in that
policy, must continue to issue bonds
in order that few may make money
out of the laboring man.
At last the Oregonian has been
forced to acknowledge the article
going the rounds of the democratic
press, credited to the London Financial
News, in which it enumerated the
benefits to accrue to America by the |
adoption of free coinage, is genuine,
bus it offers as an apology that the
Financial News is not much of finan-
cial authority.
The Argonaut, a strong Mckinley |
paper OF San Francisco, candidly says
the chances for VIM. J. Bryan for elec-
tion are far better than those of his
That if Mckinley wins it
must be among the doubtful states, and
that Oregon is the only doubtful state
he can lose without losing the election.
Tho Argonaut's honesty is very re-
freshing in these days of partisanship.
We have reached crisis in our
affairs. Our financial policy
is run by a few syEdicates in the in
terest of the money-changers, and the
question presented to our people is
the people shall take charge
Of our government and run it In their
own interests, or farm 1t out to those
,yndicates to let them run it in their
,wn interest.-Extra ct from Bryan
speech at Chester, Pa.
Afteral the republican landslide in
Maine does not turn out to be such
wonderful victory. The plurality is
