 He was finally nominated for al derman, however, and despite the fact that his district was Republican he was elected by a majority that was greater than the number of votes his opponent secured. As further proof of the great confidence the city had in his discretion and quick judgment, he was nominated for mayor, but for private reasons declined He was also honored by being rendered nearly every office in the gift of his party in the state of New Jersey, but felt that he could serve his state better as an humble worker.

WHITNEY AND BLAND.
Occupy Opposite Rooms at Chicago. Getting Tn Readiness for
 til } Convention.

CHICAGO, H., June 30.-By a curious coincidence the Bland silver camp has been pitched on the parlor floor of the Auditorium in q suit of rooms directly opposite those re- served by William C. Whitney for
 the headquarters of the gold dele gates at the Democratic National Convention When the yellow money advocates come to town they
 will find things looking lively about the headquarters of the enemy for the Bland standard was flung to the winds yesterday and already everything is running at full blast The Bland executive committee, of which Gov. Stone is chairman. ex- pected to find that the other candi- dates for the presidential nomina- tion had transferred their basis of operations to Chicago, but in this the committee was mistaken, for with the exception of eX-Governor Boies, of Iowa, who was the first on the field, none of the aspirants have opened their headquarters. The headq uarters of the 3oies boom are at the Palmer House, where a coterie of prominent Iowans are looking out for recruits and furnish ing their arms preparatory to the great fray of next week. Governor Matthews, of Indiana will not throw open his headquarters at the Palmer House until later in the week, probably on Saturday.
 Talks with prominent silver leaders who are already on the field indicate that caucus of silver delegates will be held on Friday or Saturday for the purpose of coming to something like an agreement in order that solid front may be presented to the onslaughts Of the gold men. The Bland committee is in favor of having the proposed caucus settle everything from the platform to the presidential nomi- nee, but to this plan objections are being made by some, on the ground that it would be unfair to the States desiring to cast a complimentary ! ballot for their favorite sons.

Prosperity" says: "The opinion expressed
by the Royal Commission in its report to
parliament in 1856, that the depression In
trade and industries was due to no eXcep-
tional or temporary causes has been con-
firmed by the experience of recent years
which have followed. That system Of
free trade. or free imports, which in 1855
was sapping the vitals of British Indus
tries, was the essential cause Of the loss
of profits, reduced wages. lack of employ
ment and universal stagnation in business.
Since 1885 the increase of imports Of COM
peting commodities which has taken place
has intensified the suffering which to such
an extent prevails among the masses OF
the people. 1t has prolonged and made
more severe that life-and- death struggle
which has been raging in every branch of
productive industry, since the effect of
free trade began to be felt"
Mr.. Curtiss has compiled tables from the
highest British authorities which show
a favorable balance of trade for England
from 1897 down to 1860. only a. single year
intervening when the balance was against
her. Again, from 1864, after Englands
protective tariffs had been fully repealed.
the balance of trade turned against Eng
land ranging from three hundred and
twelve million in 1864 to six hundred and
thirty-sevn million in 1893. Thus England
is today buying abroad more than six
hundred million dollars worth of goods
more than she sells abroad-an amount
equal to one-third of the present money
volume of the United States. There are
no other three nations on earth that could
Jointly stand such a strain. Englands
ability to meet this enormous balance Is
due to the interest and dividends on ner
foreign loans and investments and to the
immense amount she receives as the COM
mon carrier of the commercial world.
The wealth which England accumulated
during three centuries of protection Is
today invested in the industries of Amer
lea, Africa. Australia and China. while
English labor is taking refuge in aims
houses. The fact that Great Britain has
thirty times as many Daupers as the
United States in comparison with the ac-
tuai population of the two nations Is
significant testimony against the bene-
fcent influence of free trade.

FREE SILVER EVILS.

Startling Evidences in Colombia of
the White Metals Unacsirabiiity.
Cost of Living Wage In.
or. ased About Fifty Per Cent,
While Provisions Have Increased
Two Hundred Per Cent.
The following letter which eloquently
shows the evils of free silver has been
received by the World from Luther F..
Mckinney, United States minister to
Bogota: "As the money question
seems to be the important question in
the present political contest in the Unit
ed States, l thought it might be of in
terest to know what effect silver legis-
lation has had upon the people of Co.
lombia.
Twenty years ago, in 1876, gold and
silver were coined in the mints of CO.
lombia. both being legal tender for all
debts, and at that time, owing to the
scarcity of the white metal, silver was
at n premium over gold of about 3 per
cent.
about 1850 gold was at premium
because the imports exceeded the ex-
ports. and as the balance had to be
Idlu III SOlt, IL TtlulItu d Siiidii p.S-
lnium to get the gold for the purpose
Up to 1855 the government continued
to coin gold and silver, and at that
time gold was at a premium over silver
of about 20 per cent.
I'm 1885 congress passed a law that
made paper money legal tender for
all debts, the paper to be payable in
gold or silver at the option of the gov
ernment;' this being anattempt to make
silver at q par with gold
GOLD 100 PER CENT. PREMIUM.
This was an impossbility. for at
once the gold all went out of the coun-
try and the government was on a silver
basis in spite of its efforts by legisla-
tion.to keep gold and silver al parity.
From that time to this there has been
no gold in circulation in Colombia.
1.-THE effect of this was to raise the
premium on gold from 90 per cent. in
1885 to 100 per cent. in 1895.
AT the present time, June II. ex-
change on New York is 40. the price of
exchange depending wholly upon the
number of drafts upon the market and
the demand for them. AS the coffee
crop is being shipped at this time and
the merchants for certain reasons are
not importing largely, the price of ex
change is low.
I'm the department of Panama paper
money is not used. silver being the only
medium of circulation. the result being
that silver in the other departments has
entirely gone out of circulation, and pa
per is the only money used.
''If one goes to market in Bogota and
offers silver for his dinner 1t is re-
fused. AS exchange is lower in Pan
anna than in other parts of the coun-
try spectators buy all the silver they
can find at a premium of from 6 to 20
per cent. and send it to Panama and
make profit. Now. to show the ef-
feet of this upon the people of Colom-
bia. will give certain facts that are
svell authenticated.

educational influence of manufactures
is of vast Importance to the nation. The

in textiles, in machinery. or in the ma
