There is a great difference between
the American millionaire and the Jew
millionaire, Baron de Hirsch, whose
death is lamented by people in all civil
lized regions Of the i.,be, in South
America as in Russia, in North America
as in Asia. Baron de Hirsch said: II

my lifetime to help people out of igno-
rance and poverty" And he did. No
man has given so much money for use
full purposes as Baron de Hirsch. The
money was not thrown away in mere
charity, but was used to educate the
poor and give them trades and ~colonize
them where they could grow up with
the country and become profitable, hap

spends his wealth i'll building palaces
surprising those of kings, giving parties
that cost $50, 900, and in buying titled
husbands for his daughters. The yul-
garity Of the American millionaire is
unfathomable.

"Some of the dice shakers have eel

DemOcra and the Tariff.

New YORK Evening Post.
The tariff part of Mr.. McKinleys letter
is, of course. not to our taste. Nothing
that he could say on that subject consis-
tent with his own previous record or with
the platform of his party would be. We
differ from him on this subject in toto.
Probably all the Democrats nd Indepen-
dents who are now support; him differ
from him. They support him not for his
tariff views, but in spite of them. They be-
lieve that the election of Bryan would be
an overwhelming calamity. They think
that national reputation. however brought
about, whether through ignorance or
through design, would leave the Republic
stranded. wreck and derelict among ma
lions. and that as compared with this issue
the tariff is of trivial consequence. They
know that there will be time enough TO
fight that battle hereafter. They feel as
Stephen A. Douglas did at the beginning
of the civil war when he said: Give me
country where my children can i've IN
peace, and then we can have room to set
tie our political differences They recog-
nize the fact, too, that Bryan must be beat
en- for the most part by Republican votes,
and that whatever is requisite to hold Re
publcans in line and prevent them from
catching the silver craze must be said and
done. But if any Democrats cannot abide
what MIR. Mckinley says on this subject,
they have sure refuge in the third ticket
which will be nominated at indianapolis

ECKELs At THE BATES.
Says 1t Was Fitting that the COnven-
ton Was Held in Indianapolis.

About o'clock last night great throng
of people gathered in front of the Bates
House while the When Band was serenad-
ing the delegates who had not left for
home. David w. Lawler, of Minneapolis,
was recognized sitting among the group
of guests on the balcony and responded to
loud cries for a speech. He wildly APP
plauded. Afterward the band formed a cir
Gle in the rotunda of the hotel and was
soon surrounded by a crowd of several hun
bred people. The lively music attracted the
attention of the guests and they gathered
in the balconies overlooking the rotunda.
Among thems were Controller Ec1els, who
stood with John P. Frenzel near the stair
case, smiling and enjoying the music from
above a picture of General Hancock. Mr.
Eckels was recognized and after consider
able hesitation made a brief speech in re-
Spouse to loud demands for "Eckels! Eek
els! Speech. Speech
Il don't think you want a Speech" Mr..
Eckeis began, when you have such good
music. Back of all the speeches that have
been made the last two or three days has
been the fact that the people have gathered
together with the desire to proclaim the
great truth that there is in the government
no inherent power by which it can create
value where no value exists. A party call

THE NEW YORK PLANK.
submitted to the Convention, but
Promptly PigeOn-HoIed.

The New York delegation held a meeting
at 1880 yesterday morning, and with the
evident idea that there was not to be a
financial plank in the platform that would
suit them, agreed unanimously that the
New York delegation should present this
plank from the floor and ask for it's con-
sideration:
Whereas, The National Democratic
party recognizes gold as the best and only
accepted standard of commercial value,
thereby possessing the exclusive character
iStic of basic money, the supply and the
quality thereof being sufficient for the
chief demands of future coinage and that
all attempts to force silver TO circulate as
such money by coming at a ratio in excess
of its commercial value bullion have
resulted in failures and are now diScontn-
ued by the leading commercial nations,
Resolved, That the party opposes the
further coinage of silver at any ratio. and
either by the independent action of our
own government or in pursuance of inter-
national agreement, except as a fractional
currency and that, too, redeemable at par
in gold
Resolved, That the pledges of our gov
eminent to maintain the equality fixed by
law of the gold and silver which has been
coined by its authority should remain in
violate forever
This plank was submitted by Mr.. Griffin
on the floor but in accordance with the
rules of the convention went to the reSo-
lutions committee and was never heard of
again.

Louis H. Enrich, of Colorado Springs,
Col, helped to draft the platform and did
not care to discuss it, but speaking of the
convention in general way he said: THE
principal characteristics of the convention
were the deep earnestness and the SINGER
ity of conviction which prevailed. The ma
Jor1ty of the delegates were not politicians,
but men who left their homes and business
because they felt that the country had
reached a crisis which had to be met by
Self-Sacrif1ce and energetic effort. The
strongest feelings that seemed to prevail
We're the strong resolution that the cur
rency should not be tempered with, a de-
termination that Bryan should not be elect
ed, unbounded admiration for Grover CleVe-
land and conviction that when this cleo
ton shall be over and Bryan shall have
received his quietus q party standing for
tariff for revenue only should stand ready
organized, in order to resist the encroach-
ment of tie protective tariff. -

LEAVING THE CITY.
A Great jam When the Crowd Lined
Up to Settle Hotel Bills.

The biggest jam in the lobby of the
Denison House was that occasioned early
yesterday evening by the visitors who were
anxious to catch the early trains out of

out over three four days and the hotel
people did not find themselves greatly in

every guest of the house was bent upon

people came from, for it seemed that all
