individual the.chaplainAoflthe g. A, K.
is. Speaking of the Venezuelan dispute,
Rev. Boyne said;
"The bad feeling against Great Brit
ain on the part Of the Americans had been
exaggerated and the better class OF people
In the States had always been on the side
| of England. He agreed with the view
that the Monroe doctrine did not apply to
England, for England was not foreign
power in the sense Of the doctrine, for she
possessed more land in North America
than did the States. President. Cleveland
sent his message on the spur Of the NOM
ent without considering that by doing so
he virtually declared war against Great
Britain. II President Cleveland had
right on his side 1t would be- always pos
sible for any of the petty States to raise q
dispute with England and then fall back
for protection upon the United States ke-
public. This was absurd. The Venez-
uelan dispute was long-standin2 dis

States had no interfered, then why
should the present oneS"
Dr. Buyne having thus expressed him

in the doctors opinion, would endy

"It is composed of the right men, who
are sure to decide in favor OF England

"No: certainly not. You must re-

Such talk the American people hardly
expect from G. A. r. man. The mo It

Indiana becomes battle ground for the

the former.

The Mckinley sentiment is particularly
strong in the Indiana gas belt, where in

A News-Democrat reporter called upon
Governor Mckinley Tuesday morning,
and asked for an interview regarding
Gen. Harrison declining to be candi'

gracious, but declined to talk for publ

was very anxious for an expression frc m
him, he said he was sorry, but must de-

lea today regard silver as coin, and 1t
strikes us that such being the case, 1t
makes little difference what the New
York World says the meaning of coin was
in 1870 The people regard gold and sill
yer as coin, and the secretary of the treas
ury would not have to go far away from
Wall street to find this out. So long as
gold can be drawn from the treasury to
pay for bonds, there Is very little hope OF
the treasury filling up. If the secretary
of the treasury would simply turn in and
meet all requests with coin, whichever he
had most Of, either gold or silver, there
would soon be change Of policy among
the New York bankers Instead Of haul
ing out gold exclusively, interpret silver
as coin also, and the financial problem is
nearer solution.

a NEW STORY OF GRANT.
He Did Not Have More to Eat Than He
Needed.

Needed.
d. r. Garrison told a story to Gen.
Schofield at the Dent house which illus
trates to a certain extent the kind
heartedness Of Gen. Grant, says the st.
Louis Republic. Grant was a great
lover of horses, and while he was presi-
dent he came on visit to st. Louis and
Mr.. Garrison, at that time president of
the old Pacific road, took him out to
his farm. They started off in a buggy
for drive, and after going some dis
tance met an old man going along on a
horse. The man was in his shirt sleeves
and wore straw hat, but Grant recog-
nized him, and stopping the buggy. he
got out and, walking up to the old man.
put out his hand and said: Hello,
Uncle Ben! How are you and the old
woman getting along? The old man
was Uncle Ben Sappington. He well
coined the president and said that he
was getting along very well. He re-,
marked that they were happy as long
as they had enough to eat and pipe
and little tobacco.
Uncle Ben, wouldn't you like to be
postmaster of Meramec townships"
asked the president.
Uncle Ben said he would not object
and Grant shook hirl by the hand and
said; God bless you and your wife.
Uncle Ben, think of you often" When
Grant got back in the buggy the tears
were streaming from his eyes and he
said to Mr. Garrison Poor old Uncle
Ben! He has big heart rememA
ber," he said "whon and my wife. livF
ing In that house over there. did not
have any more to eat than we needed.
and old Uncle Ben would come around
TO the house at night and leave bas-

was afraid to come and give them TO us.

our feelings, God bless his memoryi'

The New Yo'k World says that "coin
bonds are gold bonds, because at the
time OF the bond act in 1870, there was
but one meaning to coin, and that was
gold hence as the act was created With
special reference to coin (gold) bonds and
nothing has transpired since to change
the meaning, to pay bonds in coin means
20 pay in gold. This position is violently
assailed by all the free-silver orators and
newspapers and 1t seems not without
cause. The law reads payable in coin, "
and 1t rests with the secretary of the
treasury TO say what coin is, whether
gold or silver or both. No argument is
needed 10 show that the people OF Amor

The Cincinnati Enquirer points out
that electing U. S. senators by the people
instead of by legislatures would be little
or no Improvement because q man with
money could capture state convention
and have himself nominated much easier
than he could control the members of his
party in the Legislature, and for the good
reason that it is no crime to buy votes or
commit bribery in party convention,
while in the legislature there is "some"
risk attached. The able journal on the
Ohio reasons well as far as it goes, but 1t
stops too soon. The objection urged is
good, but remove it. Do away with a
nomination. Let the state convention
keep hands off. Let every man who de-
sires to be candidate present a petition
duly signed by a sufficient numDer Of tax
payers for at least fifty counties in the
state. This would throw the whole mat
ter before the people: would take 1t away
from the state convention, and would
mean fair race with the peoples choice
