troll of the so-cacd Democratic National Con
ventlon. and succeeded They did not have

There are S,OOOOOO regular" life insurance

they want their heirs to receive the full amounts
of their policies, or only ifty-three cents on the

to decide the question. II they vote for Me-
Kney and honest money, they vote for pay

ably have power 10 fix a ratio at whch SILVER

Blmctall!sm. Is something that 1t Is not pos
slhle for any one nation to establish or main
tain II means not the mere concurrent com
cgc of two metals as one high official statement
bns recently asserted. but the maintenance or
the two metals in continued use. 1t means not
abandonment of the gold standard OF values,
as BRYAN ignoranty or dishonesty says, Dut
the absolute maintenance of the gold standard,
silver circulating side by side with gold, ana
having the same buying power. If that cannot
be attained bimctgllism cannot be attained
II is.argued by silver men that the buying
mower Of gold must continually Increase, II that
metal alone Is used. II so, the gold standard
Of value can be maintained only by checking
that change In value. 1t Is argued by them
that the additional use of silver. giving
broader metallic basis, will check such change
In value. and so maintain the gold standard
without the continued appreciation OF gold. IL
that be true, International bimetallism would
more truly and perfectly maintain the gold
standard But IN any event bimetallism Is
utterly impossible without International agree
mcnt.
The reason Is obvious and the proof en-
braces the whole monetary history OF this ana
other nations No one nation can fix ratlo II
any other chooses to draw away Its gold by
having little higher relative price for gold. or
It's silver by paying a relatively higher price
for silver. Until 1894 this country had only one
standard and that silver, because the diifer-
enre between the American ana European
ratio sent our gold to Europe. The act OF June
2S 1884, reduced the gold coinage from 2iA
grains TO 232 grains pure gold to the doliar'
and that gave the country only one standard
namely. god-because silver was then worth
relatively more in other countries. and was sent
thithcr. The French ratio, l5la to l. made every
oun,r of silver worth One-thirty-secOnd. or
about Der cent more than the American ratio,
1Gt since 1894 we have had only one metal
circulating freely as money. the silver III use
being merely subsdiary-that Is, only repre-
sentative of gold, just as the paper promise 10
pay is a representative of gold. because pl-
metalIlsm is simply impossible without inter
national agreement. so that other commercial
nations shall not take awny from circulation
one metal or the other by paying relatively more
for it. Mr.. Bryan's sole attempt at argument
rests upon glarng untruth

TJEE INSTPANCE IN DANGER.

There is. on the whole, no more admirable
fcnture of modern economics than lie lnsur-
once II Is a system well designed to encour-
age thrift. In all It's forms it affords to the
denendeut members of families protection
AGAINST DISASTER and In some OF its most pop
ulnr forms IL adds n profitable scheme OF In
yestnent for the benefit Of old age While II Is
practised by the rich. 1t Is propOrtiOnately with
in the reach OF the poor. The hnmblest wage
Garner can. by laying aside n few dollars each
year make sure at once that a snug legacy
will come to his family In case of his death, or
that he himself will enjoy a handsome ac-
cumulatlon of savings and profits II he lives
TO n certain age. In this way every year thou
sands of stricken families are cheercd and sue
cored. and thousands Of men, happily survlv-
ing the prescribed term, are rewarded with the
proceeds Of years of saving at the very time
when such realization Is of most value to them
Put TO the test Of popular experience anu
Judgment, the system has indeed received the
highest possible approval Recent statistics
show that there are now In force In the United
States no less than 10,407,SI5 policies repre-
senting S0.GSl, AZ, which stupendous sum

by one man. and some are held by rich men
whose heirs might not be seriously embarrassed
by the loss of them. But 1t is safe to reckon
that these policies are held by the heads or

majorty of cases the policies represent the

the Appellate Division is totally different ono
from that In which it was recently held tha' rhc

BINETlJLISN DEFINED.

The first Necessity In this campaign, as rr-
spects the money quesinn, Is to teach people
what bimctalllsm means. Scarcely anybody
who uses the word seems TO know. Candidate
Bryan does not. unless he Is dishonest He does
not often argue. men Of his stripe ind asser-
lion easier than logic, and passion preferable
to proof But his labored speech In Convention
contained one attempt at argument which has
since been repeated in many forms by thou
sands OF his supporters, and that derived its
only force from II use Of rhe word bimctnllism
which Is either dishonest or ignorant. Mr. Bry-
IN said: "If they tell us TIM; the gold standard
lis good thing, We point 10 their platform and
tell them that their platform pledged the party
ITO get rid Of u gold standard and substitute
"bimetalsm. II the gold standard Is II good
thing. why try to get rid of ty'
The statement Is wholly erroneous. The
Republican pnrty is not pledged to get rid OF
a gold standard and substitute bImetallsm."

posed to the free coinage Of silver except BY

THE RAIDERS FOUND GUILTY.

Dr. Jameson and his five comrades, the lend
crs Of The Transvaa raid have been convicted
Of the charges made against them. and have
been sentenced to imprisonment DR.. jameson
for fifteen months Major Sir John Wioughby
for ten months, Major the IS'n 4. White for
seven months and Colonel The Hon. III. II.
White Colonel Raleigh Gray and Major The
Hon {. J. Coventry for nye months each. The
prisoners received The sentences calmly. even
proudly. They decided TO make no appeal, and
will therefore enter uDOn their terms Of impris-
omment at once Hard labor WAS not imposed
upon them. 80 they will be treated as iirstclass
misdemeanants They vii! have many com
forts and even luXuries in prison, though ii is
doubtful If they will be much lonized when
freedom. The English are pretty well tired of
the whole b,isn, ss and not n little ashamed OF
II. and will be glad 10 have it pass into Oh
security. The raiders were the popular lions
Of the day when they were arraigned at Bow
Street four months ago To day they are dead
lions. and there will scarcely be any recalling
them 10 life.
Thus ends one OF the most noteworthy cases
of this generation In the British Empire. All
the others concerned In the raid have been re-
lccsed while Messrs Rhodes, Belt and Com
many the real iDstigaiOrs of the whole business,
haye not been, and In nll probability never will
