Cleveland and Pittsburg Have Plan to
 Locate It West.
 A conference was held recently at Pittsburg between Robinson and Tebeau of the Cleveland Baseball club, and Kerr and Mack of the Pittsburgs, the out come of which is said to be pooling of issues between the two clubs, looking to the locating of the pennant for 1896 in the vest
 It was said at tho meeting that the east for years has had combination, the successful working of which has kept that section a winner. To offset this, it is now proposed by the two clubs men tioned to pool their extra players, and as the season progresses draw from the surplus to strengthen either team, as may be mutually agreed upon.
 Whether this plan will be extended to other western teams is not stated, but the two principals believe that such a combination will work so effectively that the pennant will next land ill the west.

TIE Senatorial contest in Ken lucky has reached a climax, and it now begins to appear that Joe Blackburn, or some other good Dem ocrat, will be elected. On Saturday Hunter wrote his Republican fol- lowers letter withdrawing from the race. This was caused by the bolt of five Republican members of the Legislature and was brought about by Hunter compromising himself with the silverites. The Republican members of the Legisla- ture will hold a caucus today to nominate a successor to Hunter.

The threat of the Senators of the Republican silver mining States to oppose any further extension of the protective policy unless they are supported in their demand for free silver by the manufacturing States attests the selfish interests and un- democratic motives which prompt to the debasement of the National currency To fix by law value on siver which it does not command in the open market is to do for the sil- yer barons of the Rocky Mountains what has so long, under the spacious guise of protection to home indus try, been done for the iron barons of the Alleghanies.
 The farmers of the great central valley of the Union sell the fruits of the fields they till at prices fixed by free and unlimited competition in the markets Of the world and they are entitled to have the price of what they buy or receive in ex- change for those fruits fixed in like manner, whether that be the prod uct of the forest or of factory, ot sll- yer, gold or iron mines.
 The constant teaching of Democ- racy to the laborers of this country has been that legislation could not increase the real rate of their wages and that in proportion as that which they received in ex- change for their toll was by law en- hanced in price above its intrinsic value they were deprived of their earnings. The laborer is worthy Of his hire. Honest work should be recompensed with honest money, with money whose value is stable and will not lessen, however long it may be saved, with money as good when drawn from the savings bank as when deposited there.

How Mrs. Clay Raised a Dollar For the

 Each member of tho springport (Mich. Christian Endeavor society pledged herself to turn into the treasury dollar earned by herself, and Mrs Jennie Clay earned hers in a unique way Two tramps called at her house and demanded food and lodging. She went into room, got her husbands re- volver and ordered the tramps to throw up their hands. which they did.
 She then commanded them to march and started them for the village lookup, where they were caged for the night. In the morning they were registered and allowed to depart, Mrs. Clay giving them breakfast. She then presented a bill to the village council, "To arresting two tra1nps, 50 cents each, $1," and that body, after good deal of humorous debate, allowed the bill. = Chicago Times Herald.

MLSSOURI "SOUND
 MONEY DEMOCRATS.

The "sound money" Democrats of Missouri held conference in St. Louis last Saturday which was at tended by large number of the leading Democrats Of that State and at which it was decided to make a determined effort to secure part of the delegation to the National Dem ocratic Convention and to issue an address to the people. The address protests agaiss the intolerance of the free silver forces in that State, and among other things says.
 The repudiation of the only Dem ocrat elected and inaugurated to the Presidency within forty years, and the lowering of the existing stand ard of values upon which public and private credit and all business pros perity arc based, are sought to be made the tests of State and National Democracy, and every Democrat who refuses to submit thereto is to be prescribed.
 Those who propose this policy of rule or ruin assumed the direction of the party at the last election and their leadership eliminated in over whelming disaster. The last elec- tion gave us for the first time in more than twenty years Republican State officials, a Republican Legislature and a Republican delegation to Con- gress.
 The same policy, if adopted by the National Democracy, will be at tended by the same results. The Democratic party is bound by all it's traditions, by the teachings and ex- ample of it's great leaders, Jefferson Jackson and Benton, to the principle of freedom of trade with all Nations of the world, and, as an indispensi- ble condition of such commercial freedom, to a moaey that will pass current at it's face value in every quarter of the globe.
 The free coinage of silver at ratio above it's market value is but another phase of that paternalism. and favor to the few at the expense of the many against which the Dem ocratic party has always struggled.
