Though Carlisle's conversion to the
under such suspicious circumstances as
to excite some inoreedulity as to it's sin
certify, it must be admitted that he is do
ing good service for the cause of sound
money as sound money is defined in
the platforms of the Republicans of New
York, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, and
Maine. Especially happy is he in setting
forth the danger that threatens the labor
ing man from oheapenng of the none
tary standard. The argument, SO COM
mon with the silver men, that we must
have silver currency in order to enable
US to compete with Oriental nations, he
shows clearly its merely a pretext for re-
ducing the wages of the laboring man
In this country without his knowing it
until it is too late to prevent it. The
PRESS has urged this point frequently.
pointing out that for a long time after
the dollar was reduced in purchasing
power one-half by the success of free silver
the workingman would be receiving no
greater number of dollars than before,
UuU tne purchasing power OF his dollars
would be diminished nearly or quite one
half. Wages are always the last thing to
advance, and long after every
thing the workingman has to buy has
gone up the thing and the only thing
he has to sell, namely, his labor, remains
unaffected. If there is any one thing
about money that experience has thor
oughly demonstrated it is that laboring
men are the worst sufferers from fuctua-
lions in the purchasing power of the
dollar The merchant can lay aside his
goods until prices rise enough to cover
the debasement of the dollar. But the
laboring man cannot store the thing he
has to sell. What he does not sell today
he loses forever.

bad set backs on Thursday. One was in
Kentucky where the delegates we're cap
tured by Bradley and the other in New
Jersey when their demand for instructions
was overwhelmingly voted down. Both
these states they have all along claimed
as sure for the Ohio candidate. To be
sure they got Mckinley named as second
choice in Kentucky, but we imagine thrt
the Bradley delegates, who were bitterly
opposed by the Mckinley managers, will
not arrive at the point OF making a sec
ond choice until it is too late to do Mo-
Kinley any good. e

in the public mind as to the sentiment of
Maine Repu blicans or their candidate for
the Presidency on the tariff or currency
question.
(Boston Advertiser.)
The fact remains, and cannot be ra-
61onally denied, that, all things consld-
cred, Speaker INSTRUMENTATION opens
up in prospect tho safest, strongest,
most unequivocal pledge and potency on
behalf of that financial steadfastness
that is SO vitality essential to the return,
no more to depart, of industrial and COM
mercial prosperity to our country, suffer-
ing long under the double incubus of a
misbegot.en, mongrel tariff and the
menace of Democratic coinage debase-
ment. In Thomas b. Reed there is a
tower of strength. He is indeed the
'fayorite son" Of Maine, of all New Eng-
land, but he is vastly more and greater
than that somewhat perverted term
alone implies. He is not the choice of
section SO much as the representative of
an idea. His fame is national, his ad-
mirers are in all the states and in all the
territories. His name kindles enthusiasm
wherever it is spoken, IN Texas as in
Maine, in Minnesota as in Massachusetts.
(Springfield Republican,
= These two platforms maine and Ohio),
illustrate better than anything else the
characters of the two men. The one ex-
pibits strength and courage and plain
speaking, where only weakness and
evasiveness are found in the other. The
one declaration is that of man guided
to some degree at least by principle; the
other of one who seeks to please all and
is fearful of offending any. OF the two,
Mr.. Reed is pre-erninent by the man for
the honest money sentiment of the party
to rally about. His strength in the ante
convention should grow from this time

1t is one of the curiosities Of the street
sprinkling system in this town that
when the wind blows the most constant
ly, and the dust is the most troublesome,
that is in the month of April, the street
sprinkling carts are kept carefully housed
and the dust is allowed to blow. For the
past weeksthere have been frequent COM
plants Of dust and a loud call for
sprinkling. but no carts have put in an
appearance. We would respectfully
suggest to the sprinkling company that
it can popularize itself and win the un-
dying gratitude of people who are
cleaning house, by bringing out its
carts on the next day that the dust blows
and helping subdue it.

CURRENT COMMENT.
THE REPUBLICAN STATE CONVEN.
TION.
(Kennebec journal. }

For Republicans throughout the conn-
try there are inspiration, a feeling of GER
tainty that Republican principles must
triumph this year. For Republicans in
Maine there is still other reasons why
that convention at Portland may be said
to have been surcharged with enthusiasm;
a statement that those who witnessed the
the hon. Thomas b. Reed will not ques-
ton. Chief among these is the fact that
Maine has candidate for the Presidency
whose qualifications for that high office
no one has or can call in question, man
in whose care may be entrusted every car
dlnal principle of the party, every respon-
sibility that may deyolve upon the Chief
Executive OF this nation. His record on
protection, reciprocity and sound cur
renoy speaks for itself, but we would
commend to the consideration Of every
one the clean-cut fearless enuneiation of
the attitude Of the party in Maine upon
those questions a position to which Mr..
Reed has su bscribed. No candidate has,
no candidate can, take a stand mora
openly or firmly upon the bed rock prin-
cipleS that are vital, and absolutely essen
tial to the prosperity and credit of this
country. The work done at Portland
will be discussed in every state. 1t can
not fail to bear good fruit.

When the Maine Republican platform
with Its open declaration of war against
free coinage plotters and its frank aucep-
tance of the old standard, is put in com.
parison with the tricky and Contemplate
straddle of the Ohio Republican plat
form, the difference between the two de-
claratlons on the currency ought to be
a conclusive argument with Republican
business men in favor of Mr. Reed. We
do not hesitate to say that if the st. Louis
convention should adopt the Maine
financial plank and the Maine nominee

THE FREE SILVER DEMOCRACY.

The outcome of the Missouri
Democratic Convention was free
silver victory. Indeed it was
much more than that-it was sound
money rout, for out of 535 delegates
only five voted against the declaration
in favor of free silver coinage. Mis-
souri, is essentially a Northern State,
though it is common to GLASS it with
the South. 1t is not silver mining
State. 1t contains the great commercial
cities of St Louis and Kansas City
Therefore the overwhelming character of
this free silver victory is exceedingly
Significant. If the Democrats of a State
like Missouri whose commercial business
is extensive are SO thoroughly saturated
with silver sentiment, it is perfectly
safe to assume that in the Southern
States, where commercial business forms
but an insign ificant part of the oooupa-
tions of the people little but free coin
age sentiment will be found among the
Democracy, and that that section will
Chicago in favor of placing the white
metal on plane with gold. But that is
not the worst of it. There is not much
more reason for expecting to find an
overwhelming preponderence of free sill
YER Democrats in Missouri than in Illi-
nois or half dozen other States of the
central West If only five votes against
free silver can be found in a convention
OF Democrats in Missouri is 1t likely that
anything like majority can be expected
in q convention Of Illinois, or Ohio, or
Indiana Democrats? Two years ago the
Ohio Democracy adopted an uneqaivocal
free silver platform, and last year the sill
yer Democrats we're i'll SO overwhelming
majority in. Illinois that the sound mon
ey men lay down without struggle, be-
cause they knew that q struggle would
be useless. With the Democrats of the
South and the far West and the central
West overwhelmingly for free siiver-and
that appears to be the situation-the
fight for sound money will have to be
borne by the Democrats of the Eastern
States entirely, and their number and
influence are utterly unequal to carry
ing on such contest with any reasona-
BILE prospect Of success.

Popular interest in the grand jury's
action in the ST. Johns, New Found
land bank cases is increasing. 1t is
learned that q majority of the jury favor
an acquital, though the minority support

inducing the jurors to mild course
is the belief that the crown Is not honest
