WILMINGTON DEIAWl

For sound Money aud Against Mckinley.
The action Of the Texas Republican
State convention, which finished its
session Thursday amid tumult and dis
order, 10 significant 1t turned down
the Mckinley shouters, and II made an
encouraging declaration in favor Of
sound money. The financial plank OF
the platform adopted is as follows:
We reaiiirm tho historic adherence of
the Republican party to sound finances
We demand an honest dollar of greatest
purchasing power for every class alike;
the largest issue Of gold, silver and
paper compatible with security and the
requirements OF trade, all of equal
value, interchangeable, one for tho
other, every dollar resting on gold as
money of final redemption.
The Republicans of Texas declare
this to be in thcir deliberate judgment
the only basis for large and liberal
circulation of money and for the main
tenance OF universal confidence.
With the exception of the New York
platform, this 10 the only declaration
thus far made by Republican State
convention in favor of u gold basis for
the currency of the country. The Texas
platform is not as explicit as tho New
York platform in declaring boldly
against the free silver coinage delusion,
but il recognizes and admits the fact
that gold basis is the only suro
foundation for our national currency.
1t was natural, therefore, that tho
convention which adopted this reason
ably sound financial declaration, should
declare against the political charlatan
from Ohio who is sweeping through
the Republican party on platform Of
cheap money and high tariff taxation.
Mckinley and sound money do not 20
hand in hand, and so the Texas Re
publicans who believe in gold basis
for our national currency, and had tho
courage to say at least this much in
| their platform, were constrained to set
their faces against the representative
Of protection and fiat money, and give
their support to one whose financial
views may more nearly accord with

risk of being deceived in Speaker Reed,
who has thus far preserved dense
silence upon the financial and every
other question, but they are at least
justified in believing him to be less
offensive than Mckinley has already
shown himself to be. And so the Texas
Republicans turned their backs upon
Mckinley and free silver coinage, and
arrayed themselves on the side of Reed
and a gold basis
The McKinleyites did not take their
defeat gracefully. They subsequently
organized trump" convention and
chose contesting delegation to the ST.
Louis convention. Should the friends
of Mckinley control tho organization Of
the national convention, tho contesting
delegation will, in all probability, be
admitted. But even this would moi
dispel the significance of the fact that
McKinley's first defeat in the contest
for Republican delegates from the
Southern States comes from convon.
tion that repudiated his free silver
coinage platform, and made a fairly
satisfactory declaration in favor of thC
gold standard.

A rather surprising story is told by
the Washington correspondent Of the
Philadelphia Ledger with respect to
the bill authorizing tho appointment of
General Nelson A. Miles as lieutenant
general of the army. 1t is likely that
the Senate will take no action upon
tho measure at this session, as Secre-
tary Of War Lamont is opposed to ii,
and it is believed that President Cleve-
land would veto it il paased. General
Miles friends, - the correspondent
states, "believo that undor the cir
cumstauces it will be best to let the
matter drop until another Congress.
and this is understood to he in accord.
ance With General Miles own wish.
Even should tho bill pass there Is
fear that President Cleveland might,
acting on the recommendation of the
Secretary of War feel it his duty to
appoint General Wesley Merritt to the
ollice, as he would be empowered to do
under the terms Of tho bill as Hrafted.
General Miles friends assert that
within the next two years such power.

tho existing rolling stock Of tho road,
and to have constructed 70 now locomo-

mako work for the employees of the road

Public Expression in Favor of Non-Par-
tisnn Constitutional Convention.
We direct tho careful attention Of all
readers OF The Gazette to tho very
full report of the Constitutional Con-
yention meeting held in Newark, last
Thursday, which is printed on the third
page OF to-day's paper. 1t makes in
teresting reading Of itself, and it is
also well calculated to induce intelli-
gent and deep consideration OF one of
the most important questions that will
confront the people of this State at the
election to be held this year.
This meeting, it should be borne in
mind, was non partisan gathering
An able and consistent Republican-one
who has been tho recipient of high
honorH at the hands of his party-pre-
sided, and an active, aggressive young
Democrat acted as secretary. The audi
ence was composed of Democrats and
Republicans. Al were assembled for tho
purpose OF deciding, so far as they are
concerned. whether it would not bo to
the best interest of the people, in elect
ing convention to revise tho Consti-
tuition Of this State, to make tho body
entirely non-partisan by dividing its
membership equally between the two
leading political parties
The question was debated fully and
fairly, Republicans and Democrats
being included among tho speakers
There was voice of opposition raised
to tho proposition, for the meeting was
not called as gathering Of the friends
of non partisan convention, but as
an assemblage Of citizens for the pur-
pose of discussing the subject. And
after careful, deliberate and decidedly
interesting consideration, the meeting,
by vote that was almost unanimous,
decided in favor of convention
equally divided between tho two lead
ing political parties
Wo commend tho action OF the good
people of Newark to all other communi-
ties throughout tho State. Ii is the
most sensible and practical manner Of
dealing with the subject. 1t will un.
erringly determine the weight of public
opinion. ...-.#
1t is almost needless to say that The
Gazette is pleased at tho result of the
Newark meeting. 1t was non partisan
gathering, and it agreed that non.
partisan convention would be good
thing. Why, therefore, should there
be any fear that non-partisan conyen,
tion would not bo able to agree upor
good provisions for the now Constitu
tion?

pose for conservative and acceptable
amendments 10 the Constitution from
any quarter save thoir own organiza-
tion. II is very evident that from the
expressions and tone of their articles
that Constitution amended by this
class OF extremist would hardly bear
the name or contain the principles
which such an instrument should pro
vide. Ono error under which they
labor is that the present charter was
made by the party in power expressly
for the occasion. Every one knows
however, that the present Constitution
was the work of the Whig party some
sixty years or more ago. The Demo
cratic party in the natural law of the
rise and fall of parties came into power
under the charter as it now stands. 1t
has not been changed because the Whig
