cratic Outlook.
Washington, d. c., July 29.-In
discussing the help given the Treas.
ury department in maintaining its
gold reserve by many eastern banks
Senator Faulkner, chairman OF the
democratic congressional committee,
said to day to the correspondent of
the Times that many democrats were
asking why such aid had not been
rendered before, and whether, in case
of the election CT the democratic
nominees, The bankers would be in
clined to do SO again. THE answer
that suggests itself" SAID Senator
Faulkner, ''is tina! they probably
will not
Such aid, continues the senator.
"comes from the consciousness that
if another bond issue should be
necessary Mr.. Bryan should be
placed in the white house without
the slightest effort, and by crush
ing majority. The fact of the ma. .
ter is, the question of bond issues
by the government in times of peace
is having more force in the campaign
than anything else. The people are
aroused upon that subject. The
democratic party has not made the
issue between aggregate wealth,
corporate influence and the masses
of the people. That issue has been
made by thirty years of legislation
in the interests OF capital and wealth
add corporate influences which is
controlled by wealth. Neither
should it be said that the democratic
party is afrayed against wealth and
capital. 1t only takes the position
that wealth and capital should be
placed upon the same plane us the
interests of the people and should
share with them without advantage
or without prejudice, the benefits of
legislation.
Senator Faulkner feels confident
that Delaware will support the tick

the two lower counties aud factioDal

receipt Of adv;ces from Michigan
that tie republicans are badly split

the matter Is, that men who become

to their fellow men, of money. There
are facts which have been recogniz.
ed by the press Of the country
They have been recognized BY the
pulpit Of the country. They have
been recognized by eye~yssrehecting
man. Your moneyed men have been
warned of the consequences, but
they have taken no heed of the warn
ing. They begin to see, in the atti-
tude Of parties at this! time, that
there is some danger ahead Danger
where Danger that they may be
compelled to change politics: danger
that the people at the ballot-box will
prevent their further evil doing and
right the wrongs Of the masses.
Il am not talking to arouse pre-.
judices. ! am stating facts which,
sad TO say, the condition of the
country at present warrants me in
calling attention to. And the great
cry against the platform of the party
on this issue is, that YOU are not
sustaining this credit Of the Govern
ment and are trying to foist upon
the people dishonest dollar.
Was that dollar a dishonest dollar
when the bonded indebtedness, the
stock Of Indebtedness, the bulk Of
the mortgaged indebtedness of the
people was made? WHY is il not an
honest dollar when the Government
indorsed it as a dollar? Where is
there any greater Endorsement than
that OF the Government Of the Unit.
ed States Has she ever proved
recreant to her trust? Is not her
capital backed by the labor Of seven
ty million people with all their vari
cd interests, social, political and in
ternational? Do you tell me that
the silver dollar is not honest money
when indorsed by that Government
Well, the people will make it honest
again by remonetizing silver.
You will find no class OF men
more ready to support and sustain
its position as an honest dollar than
those men who will be interested in
amassing more money through the
gigantic interest that they represent
out of the silver dollar. They can
adapt themselves to the wishes of
the masses. The majority rules in
this country, and they will be forced
TO conform their action TO the will
OF the people.

What the Men of All Parties Think 1t
Will Re.

The political campaign of 1896 in
Maine, SO far as the oratorioal part of the
battle is concerned. was over last night
1t has been hard fought battle and the
very air has reverberated with the echoes
of the eloquence of the spell binders. 1t
has been campaign, too. in which
there was an unknown factor. How
many gold Democrats are there9 How
many of them will vote for Mr.. Clifford ?
How many will stay at home and not
vote at all? These are the questions
which Chairman Manley states cannot
be answered. Mr.. Manley says he ex-
poets a majority of 20, 600 in the state.
Mr.. Fred Emery Bean. the secretary of
the Democratic state committee, said the
other day that he was advised the Re-
publicaEs would carry the state by some
where less than that. Keen observers
have placed the probable Republican

Let every friend of sound money see
that his ballot is deposited in the bal
lot box today. The question which to.
day election will go far to settle is one
of tremendous import. 1t is something
more than a mere question of what is
the best policy. The honor and honesty
of the nation and of the individual are
involved In it.
The polls will open at o'clock in this
city and close at .. 1t is a good plan
to vote as early as possible.

because that result will give some indi-
cation of the general trend of public SEN
timent throughout the country. and be-
sides will have very potent influence
upon the national election in November.
An overwhelming sound money victory
IN this state will encourage the advo-
| Gates of sound money in other states
where the contest is yet to be brought to
greater endeavors, will inspire them
with confidence and thus greatly
strengthen their hands. 1t will also
| correspondingly depress the apostles of
Organism. That there is to be sound
money victory is not open to doubt; but
the size of it is of great Importance.
| The larger the majority the more effeos
tive the result will be in its influence
In ouher states. For this reason every
believer Of sound money, whether he be
Republican or Democrat, should see to
it that his vote is recorded in way that
shall express his sentiments. The most
effective way is to vote the Republican
ticket. But party ties are strong and it
may be that many Democrats will hesi-
tate to go to this length. But they need
not for that reason give any aid or COM
font 10 ho fro civ ie
candidate in the field whom every sound
money Democrat can vote for without
cutting his party ties and express by SO
doing his condemnation of the platform
of dishonesty and anarchy which was
concocted by the Populists who got con-
troll of the Chicago convention. Demo-
Gratis who abhor the Chicago platform
are not reduced to the necessity of voting
for the Republican candidate for COVER
nor in order to give effective expression
to their views. To so vote would, in our
opinion, give the most effective express
sion. but vote for Mr.. Clifford will
aoquit them of all sympathy with, or
desire to further, the diehonest schemes
of the Chicago convention.
In the Congressional contest in this
district, the case is different. In this
contest there is but one sound money
candidate in the field. The Democratic
candidate has openly allied himself with
the Populistic wing of the Democratic
party, and by his letter of acceptance in
which he gives his full endorsement to
the. free silver scheme, has made 1t i'm.
possible for every sound money Demo.
orat to vote for him without self-stulti-
fioation. There is but one way for the
sound money Democrats of this district
to make their votes effective in the Con.
gressional contest, and that is by voting
forlMr. Reed.

A wage Garner who votes the silver
ticket today is voting to cut his wages
in two. He is voting at the same time
to increase the prices of all the necessi-
ties of life which he has to buy. The
Detroit Tribune, one of the most promi-
nent free silver papers of the West, has
recently admitted that free coinage will
diminish the purchasing power of the
dollar, and hence lower wages and
raise prices. Indeed the Tribune is
frank enough to say that that is just
what the free coinage people want to do.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured.

diseased portion of the ear. There is only one
way to cure deafness and that is by constitu-

famed condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachia Tube. When this tube is nfiamed
you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing and when 1t is entirely closed, Deafness is
the result, and unless the inflammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its normal
condition, hearing will be destroyed forever

ToDAYs ELECTION.

The election in this state today in
wolves national questions exclusively.
Though most of the offices to be filed
are local In character, the candidates
will be voted for or against according
to their attitude upon the questions
raised by the Popocratic convention Mt
Chicago. AS long as Maine votes in Sep
tember every fourth year. her gube.na-
torial election Will turn upon national
questions, and the verdict her voters ex-
press will be their verdict upon the issues
involved in the Presidential canvass. A
vote fo1 Mr.. Powers today means q vote
against free coinage of silver, and
against the degradation of the Supreme
Court as suggested in the Chicago plat
form. A vote for Mr.. Frank means a
vote for free coinage and all the other
wild and reckless experiments proposed
by the Chicago platform. In the oam-
paign of the past three weeks the curren-
cy question has taken precedence of all
others, and has been urged more than
any other, more than all others, upon
the attention of the voters. 1t is there
fore this question that is likely to be up
permest in the minds Of the great ma
nf choI ,ok ID
tempt at this time to rehearse the argu-
ments Tor and against free silver. The
slime for argument has gone by and the
time for action has arrived. If the voter
has not now made up his mind, there
Is no prospect that he will before the
time for expressing his views has gone
by.
But we assume that the vast majority
Of the voters have arrived at some def
mite conclusion in regard to the questions
that are before them and are prepared
to express 1T today. We want to urge
upon them the Importance of makire
their convictions known through the bal
lot box. To be sure our citizens have
another chance to express their opinions,
but they. have no other chance to make
them known when they will have infiu-
ence upon the rest of the country. They
never can express their sentiments upon
free coinage of silver with half the effect
that they can today. Today the eyes OF
the whole country are upon this state
watching for the result Of the voting,

The only complaint made against the

much. The free silver campaign is for
the purpose of taking some of Its value
out of 1t. How do depositors in savings

deposits scaled down by means of a
