pect OF international agreement as to sii-
yer coinage, and while gold remains the
standard of the United States and Of the
civilized world. the Republican party Of
New York declares Itself in favor of the
firm and honorable maintenance of that

Two days later the Massachusetts, con-
vention was held. and the platform adopt

other states. presents more clearly and
concisely than any of the others the pre-
else position taken by Republicans. We
commend the following - = declaration

give protection 10 our industries and reve-
nue. 10 our treasury. We are entirely op-
posed TO the free and unlimited coinage Of
silver: and to any change in the existing
gold standard except by International
agreement. Each dollar must be kept as

abroad. Every promise must be rigidly
kept. and every obligation redeemable in
coin must be paid in gold"
Texas surprised everybody by coming
out SO boldly against free coinage. but
that was not really SO remarkable. because
II is a Democratic state, and the cardinal
principle in Texan Republicanism Is to say
and do precisely the opposite Of that said
ard done by Democrats.
The hit" of the season was made by
South Dakota. which had been regarded
as a free silver state. The Republicans not
only declared against free silver. but they
put Senator Pettigrew In the middle of the
hall and made him ride the goat and roast
ed him SO Numerically that instead OF
being a candidate for the national conven-
ton he must have thought he was under
going initiation into the order of Nevadan
Hoodoos. South Dakota was plucky be-
cause there are SO many Populists In that
state. but she showed a good example to
the state of Washington in declaring that
Republicans were not going to sacrifice
Republican votes in order to please Popu-
lists.

MATTHEW ARNOLD.

Today Is the anniversary OF the death Of
an Engiishman little known to America,
but who left a Iegarcy to literature the
rolls on. Matthew Arnold. the distin-
gulshed son of distinguished father, per-
formed In his way task which equaied
that OF DIR. Thomas Arnold. who. as mas
ter of Rugby. revolutionized higher educa-
ton in England. Matthew Arnold devoted
his attention TO the advancement OF Sec
oudary or middle class education. which
he found far behind that Of France and
Germany.
Valuable as his services were In that
direction. however. the permanent honor
attached to his name will be In connection
with his polemieal writings. Assuming
that historical and pathological criticism
had unsettled much that formed the ac-
cepted body of Christian belief. he gave
his mind to the consideration OF what is
permanent. spiritual and ennobling In re-
ligion. with the purpose of presenting a
purified and rational form of faith that
would command the acceptance of the call
ious and skeptical. He realized that IL
attention could he directed TO the object
OF religion. and the sublime truths which
underlie all theology could be impressed
upon the people. half the battle against
wrong would be won. His criticism Of
American habits. morals and institutions
was not characterized by the same breadth
OF view. and. although interesting to the
student. was not calculated 10 win our
sympathy with his teachings on other sub
jects. Nevertheless he made valuable con-
trihntions 20 modern religious thought.
and justice Will be done 10 what Is merito-
rious In his writings long after national
prejudice has died away.

them not to land upon Coney Island. and
we think 1t would be unadvisable for them
TO land anywhere near New York, for
they would surely be caught and put upon
