Words of a Wise Frenchma n.

<'The advocates of free coinage are
wont to invoke the theory of prices
and to enlarge upon supposed appre-
citation of gold resulting from none
tary contraction, which is not to be
discovered by any examination of the
matter made in good faith.
''Those who make the fall in prices
the basis of their complaints, and at
tribute it to monetary cause, must
accept the burden of proving their
case, for as yet no relation of cause
and effect has been established he
tween the alleged scarcity of gold and
the decrease in prices of commodities.
What is incontestible is that industrial
nations have been, and are, employing
all the resources of modern science to
reduce to the minimum the cost of
production; and. as fast as an over
supply has closed the outlet for con-
stantly-increasing capital, the money
thus released has sought employment
in new countries, which, in their turn,
have become competitors of the old.
THE attempt to use deprecated cur
rency as a weapon with which to OPP
pose the fall in prices acting like one
of the forces Of nature everywhere and
upon all substances, is simply an at
tempt to impede the evolution of hui
mainly and to place in jeopardy the
future of civiliza ton. Pierre des Els
sars, in French Economist.

Short on POpulfsm, but Long or
Bastard Democracy.

Candidate Bryan, almost four months
after being nominated by the Populist
National convention, and barely four
weeks before election, has accepted the
nomination on the free silver plank
alone. The rest Of the Populist plat
form is not mentioned. He does not
hint that he has Populist running
mate or that there is such thing as
Populist ticket. He does it all up in
about half column of type; it took
two hours to read his acceptance Of
the Democratic nomination and he &C.
cepted every word and syllable Of the
Democratic platform. Surely Popu-
lism has become very stubby append.
age to the Democratic canine; it can
wag all the faster, but can't even keep
the flies off the dog.

The politicians are bitterly opposed
to disturbing the regular order of the

The parties agree that the convention
will afford a significant test of McKin-

Jameson said he believed no instrue-

structions The total Mckinley strength
in the convention is put at GAO to 900.
