now BOSS RULE FLoURIsHEs.


In Maryland and in North Carolina
we heard a great deal about boss RUE
in 1894. from the Republicans.
Tn Maryland, the party leader y
chairman of the executive committee,
United states Senator, delegate to the
National convention, and controls leg
islation in Annapolis, is a supporter OF
Mckinley, because he is for the gold
standard.
In North Carolina, the party leader
Is United Staes Senator, delegate to
the National convention, nominee Of
the party for reelection to the Senate,
virtually chairman Of the executive
committee, having degraded the nom
inal chairman into a mere figure head
and given five men, named by him, full
control of the management of the cam
paign, Supreme Dictator, having die
tated the nomination for Governor Of
man whose title to it is tainted by
fraud and chicanery, and supporter OF
Mckinley because he is for free coin
age.
These are the results in two South
ern States that voted to free themselves
of boss rule. 1t is picture that the
people viii think on more and more.

Mr.. HOLTS LETTER.

rhe name Holt is an honored one in
North Carolina.
The sterling members Of that family
have always been found on the side OF
good government as well as leaders in
industrial activity.
There was surprise some days ago
when James H. Holt, Jr., accepted an
election as a delegate to the Republic
can National convention. There was
much regret. too. for he is not the
type of young men who belong in the
Republican party in North Carolina.
His letter in to-day's paper is frank
and manly one 1t is full of patriot
ism. It viii have a good effect. 1t will
cause other men to consider the danger
of Russellism, and resolve to put the
honor of the Stale and good govern
ment at home above everything else.

TWO MERITED PROMOTIONS.

There is no honester or Drawer or
ADLER man in public life than William
Lochren, Commissioner of Pensions,
who has been appointed by the Presi-
dent United States District Judge for
the District of Minnesota. He is a
lawyer of great ability, has spent more
than dozen years as Judge in the
State court, and as Commissioners of
Pensions has shown executive ability
Of the highest order. No clamor, no
partisan appeal, no personal detrac-
ton, no G. A. r. denunciation could
move him one inch from the line of
duty. He is as manly and honest a
man as lives, big enough to fill the of
fee of President of the Republic. He
Is succeeded by Hon. ID. /. Murphy,
First Deputy. Mr.. Murphy was chief
clerk of the Pension office under Mr..
Cleveland's first administration, and
is a man of large executive ability,
capacity and tact, and is thoroughly
familiar with his new duties. He is
worthy to succeed Judge Lochren in
the most important bureau in our
government.
1t is such appointments as these that
bring honor to the party.

THE STRADDLE OK THE MONEY
QUESTION.

We favor the nae of gold and
silver as standard money and the
restoration of silver to its fune-
lions and dignity as a money
metal,
The above is the platform utterance
of the Republican State convention on
the great question that is to be the
leading issue of the campaign. 1t is
a straddle that will please nobody. 1t
was penned by Senator Pritchard and
made purposely ambiguous to make
ii in harmony with yariegated views
of Mr.. Mckinley. As a matter OF fact,
it was doubtless written in this shape
at the suggestion Of the Ohioan. If
elected, Mr.. Mckinley VIII construe
this plank exactly as John Sherman
dictates, and every honest man of
every party knows that it will be a
construction that will be hostile to the
free coinage Of silver
The people are tired Of this sort OF
straddling. They want no more
miserable makeshifts." The gold
men and the silver men, who are hon
est, agree upon demanding that there
shall be an end of sham, termination
Of double dealing, reputation Of
straddles, and a frankness and direct
ness that can admit Of no miseonstruc-
ton.
The plank that Senator Pritchard
forced into the Republican platform is
cheap piece Of double dealing that
will weigh like milestone around has
neck, and will be repudiated by every
frank man of convictions. 1T was made
ito look two ways forSunday,' because
the Republicans have resolved to keel
the money question out Of the cam.
paign and put tariff TO the front as the
foremost issue, Mr.. pritchard agreeing
with Mr.. Mckinley that the tariff is the
great and oyershadowing issue, and thu
silver question insignificant"

The report that Emperor William
has summoned Bismarck to Berlin for
a conference in regard to the latter's
recent disclosures Of state secrets may
well be true. The disclosures have not
merely astonished but seriously dis
turbed the continent. It is felt that a
continuance of the revelations must eff
fectually impair the moral force Of
European alliances. What more natu-
raj than that William and his present
chancellor should wish to stop them at
once and at almost any price? Wheth-
er, if they try, they can do so is per-
haps a question. Bismarck must have
taken his amazing step with some def
mite purpose in mind. His course Is
hardly attributable to the anger or Jeal-
Onsy Of a disapp pointed old man.
