As 466 votes will be a majority, it
will be seen that they figure on a
good, safe majority. Their claims,
however, are not uncontested by
the sound money men, who assert
that the free silverites' claims as to
Illinois, Indiana and Michigan are
absurd. With the prospect that
n.ither side will have two-thirds of
the delegates, it is expected that
one of the first acts of the conven-
tion will be to repeal the two-thirds
rule.
A stubborn fight is being made in
Nebraska and Kansas. In both
these states it is agreed that the
sentiment is strongly in favor of
silver. Senator PETER says he
thinks the silver men are nine to
one gold man among the Demo-
Gratis in Kansas, but they are not
organized; and the administration
people are trying to take advan-
tage OF that fact.
Probably of all that section of the
country there is more uncertainty
about Nebraska. Secretary Nor
ton is putting forth his efforts there
in favor of the administration, but
the general opinion among Demo
Gratis IN Congress is that the silver
men have the best of it. The only
question in Missouri, according tc
congressman from that state, is
whether the delegation is to be in
structed throughout or not. There
will undoubtedly be a few gold del
egates elected-from two to four
1t lies with the state convention tC
confirm these selections or to Sc
lect others in their places, The,
may be confirmed and instructed K
vote for silver, but there is prop
osition to 60 further and selec
men in harmony with the majority
No doubt is expressed that tn,
solid vote will be cast for silver un
der Instructions.
81 take it for granted, said Sen
ator Vest, "that my state will b.
solid for free coinage of silver ant
gold at 16 to |, and that the dele
gates will be so instructed.
The Senator said that up to
short time ago he had not hope,
that the silver men would contro
the National convention, but h
believed the chances now for then
doing SO we're good.

A higher duty imposed upon any
article that we grow or manufac-
ture cannot injure that business.
1t is the low tariff that hurts; that
causes larger imports of goods
made by cheap labor; that inter-
feres with the earnings of our own
people, creates undus competition
and reduces values to a point that
is Improbable to the producer.
There was no check to business in
1890, when the Mckinley tariff
was under discussion, either before
or after its enactment, A tariff
that will allow greater protection
to American interests is always
better for the country. 1t means
greater p 'osperity. 1t is the low
tariff and low tariff discussion tina
injure our trade, because low tariff
benefits other countries. -Spri ag>

One of the strong reasons why
the people will not vote the demo-
cratic ticket this fall is given
herewith. During the last four
years under republican administra-
tion the public debt was reduced
1910, 600, 600. During the three
years that Mr.. Cleveland has been
at the head of affairs the debt has
not been reduced, but increased
1862, 600, 900. At this ratio, when
he turns the Office over to McKin-
ley, the debt will aggregate in
round numbers, three hundred and
fifty million of dollars. Pretty
good reason for voting the straight
republican ticket, is it not?

During the Franco Prussian war
Napoleon III gave orders that no
war correspondent should accom-
pany the French troops for the
reason that "the effects of our
mitrailleuses will be so terrible and
those writer's will make such de-
scriptions of them that our battles
will impress the people as mere
cassacres and everybody will have
horror of them" A reporter of
LIE Figaro, Alfred d'Aunay, was SO
indignant at the emperor's order
that he exclaimed: every well,
then; we shall not puff this war!"
An English firni has just made a
perambulator for the infant son of
an Indian prince, which it is hoped
will not become popular in the
country of its origin. The prin-

to the musical toy of ones child
hood-when the wheels go round
music IS the result. The police
would be powerless to deal with
the machine of this kind, for the
more it "moved on the more
music would flow forth, and the
thought of a streetful of perambu-
lators each set with different
tune is maddening.

In mantle OF old traditions,
In the rime OF vanished day,
The shrouded and silent city
Sits by her crescent bay.
The ruined fort on the hilltop,
Where never a bunting streams,
Looks down, cannonless, fortress,
: On the solemn city OF dreams.
Gardens of wonderful roses,
Climbing DER roof-tree and wall,
Wood bine and crimson geranium,
Hollyhooks, purple and tall,
Mingle their odorous breathings
With the crisp, salt breeze from
the sand,
Where pebbles and sounding sea-
shells
Are gathered by children's hands.
Women, with olive faces,
And the liquid southern eye,
Dark as the forest berries
That grace the woods in July,
Tenderly train the roses,
Gathering here and there
A bud-the richest and rarest-
For place in their long, dark
hair.
Feeble and garruluos old men
Tell, in the Spanish tongue,
OF the good, grand times at the
Mission,
And the hymns that the Fathers
sung:
OF the oil and the wine, and the
plenty,
And the dance in the twilight
"Ah? these" and the head shakes
sadly,
"Were good times in Monterrey"
Behind in the march of cities
The last in the eager stride
OF villages later born
She dreams by the ocean side.
