speeches in the interest OF the silver

Just now,lt looks as II Bland or BoIes

said to-day when asked regarding the
situation at Chicago. II believe that
the Democratic party will declare for
silver at 16 10 !. The silver people are
too much In earnest to allow strad-
die.
81 do not think the gold Democrats
will bolt the convention. but they Will
knife the ticket at the polls. The gold
forces OF the country will be unit IN
November.
81 believe that II the silver forces
unke and there is genuine silver
ticket In the field on straight silver
platform, we will succeed IN November.
Silver Is gaining strength with amaz-
ing rapidly In all parts of the country
and am sure II will continue TO from

JAPAN AND FREE SILVER.
United States Ministrr Dun Tells or the
iIar'lships Inflicted on the Working

'h''" S'"'s .hthhfF puh Tells or The
ilarlships Inflicted on the Working
Classes.
SPRINGFIELD. Ohio, July edwin
Dun, United States minister to Japan,
who recently came to this country for
his daughter, now pupil In New
York school, has been spending several
days with relatives In Madison county,
Ohio. He Is cousin Of Allen W. Thur
man, OhIo's silver lender, and n nephew
OF the late Allen G. Thurman, the "Old
Roman"
In an interview at ChIllicothe. he told
plainly and fully the effect which the
silver standard has had on the currency
of Japan. There Is no one more compe-
tent 10 speak on this question than Mr..
Dun, for he Is thoroughly familiar with
Japan by reason OF his residence there
for twenty-five years. which has given
him an opportunity to Judge for himself
that few have had.
THE establishment OF the silver
standard In Japan md tn, abolishment
OF the gold standard" he said, took
place ut about the time the so-Cailed
crime OF 10 was perpetrated In this
country, but the effects have been OF q
widely different nature.
THE standard coin OF Japan Is the
yen. worth then few cents more than q
dollar OF our money. 1t has deprecated
In value since then until IL isgnow
worth about flfty-hve cents. for~the
commercial ratio OF gold to silver Is. OF
course. just the same In Japan us In, this
country.
The labOrer gets nfty-nve cents
worth OF pay for a full yen's worth OF
work; but when he buys anything he
pays for 1t In this deprecated coinage.
and gets only fifty-lve cents worth OF
goods for full yen's worth OF labor.
That Is, the purchasing power OF the
money he receives for his work Is about
one-holf the value OF the work he per-
forms to earn that money.
Wages have not gone up and the
price of commodities has not lowered
appreclubly. while the purchasing pow
er OF the money has been cut In two.
Most OF the japanese get about eighteen
cents day for their labor, and this
goes Just half as far as It did before.
All imported goods must be paid for on
the gold basis OF foreign countries, for
the silver ls not current In other coun-
tries, just as OURS ks not. 1t takes two
silver dollars to buy one gold dollars
worth OF goods.
"of course. the United States may
have the power to raise the market
price OF silver. That has, not been test
ed. and Is mere matter OF theory. But
the result In Japan has been exceeding
ly disastrous to the lnboring man. And.
while It was comparatively easy 10
make the gold 90 the silver basis. Il
would entail great hardship TO make
the change back again. TO say nothing
OF the fact tlsat the change could not
be made. because all the rich and pow
erful men Of the country are opposed
TO It on account OF the great reduction
1t would make In their wealth"

if Chairman IiarrIty Rules Against Them
Silver Men viii Kick.


CHICAGO, July 1.-The executive
committee OF the national Democratic
committee have decided 10 recommend
to the full committee that they proceed
in the usual way TO designate man
for temporary chairman OF the nation
al convention.
There Is no doubt that II the full ma
tlOnal committee accepts the recOmmcn-
datiOn It will result in the precipitation
OF lively sklrmiSh on the floor OF the
convention on the Threshold OF It's pro-
Ceedings. The silver men are quite de-
termined upon this point and show no
disposition to yield unless pronounced
and well known silver man should be
named by the national committee, which
there Is now reason to believe Will not
be the case. II gold man IL selected,
the silver minority OF the national COM
mlttee Will bring in q report recon-
mendlng silver man, and the first con-
test between the gold and the silver
forces Will be fought out there and then.
II has been intImatcd that In case at
fairs reach this stage, Chairman Har-
rlty. OF the national committee, will re-
fuse TO order roll call and will arbi-
trarlly seat the gold candidate. Mr..
IIarrity's friends say, however, that he
will pursue no course that Is not In ac-
cord with prccedents and his idea OF
fairness TO oil
The silver men refuse to believe that
he would pursue such course, but
shake their heads ominously when ask
ed what would result In case he should.

PLEASED THE LITTLE ONES.
The Dog and Pony Show Attended by
Many Orphans,

The children from the different chari-
table institutions in the city were out
in full force yesterday afternoon to
witness the performance given by Pro-
fessor Gentry and his wonderful COM
pany of educated dogs and ponies. They
had been invited to attend the enter
tainment free of charge. Seats were
reserved for them and they were made
exceedingly comfortable and enjoyed
the cute and intelligent actions of
the animal actors as only children can
and especially those who have few
opportunities to witness good and pure
amusement.
Another large and enthusiastic au-
dience was present last evening and
they enjoyed the fun, that is, If ap-
plause Is any indication.
The animals are all in splendid con-
dition and their general demeanor be-
speaks the fact that their proficiency
Is due to kindness and not to awe. The
professor remains all the week giving
entertainments nightly and matinees
today and Saturday at go p. M.
The programme is succession of
interesting and marvellous feats from
beginning to end and ones attention is
never allowed to stray from the arena
wherein the animals are located and
appearing to take as much interest in
the events as the spectators who have
paid the modest admission fee.
