WIITNEI'S hEKDIt EFFORT.

The Philadelphia Em.> very truthfuIly
says
Secretary Whitney l. the ablcSt
Democratic politician of the nation. He
i one Of the few nnlIticai leaders of that
party who illustrate the higher attributes
of craftsmanship in political movements,
and he Is entitled Ia more respect from the
average Democrat of the country than any
other individual member of the party.
Mr. Whitney had intended to sail for
Europe in a few DAYS and devote the sum
mrr t. leisure abroad hut he saw the eN-
IRENE peril III which his party threatens
To place both itself and the country, and
he Resolved To- remain aud make Il dcsper-
ate struggle to anchor the Democracy To
national honor and national credit. He
seeks no political tavorS and Is un>clti>h
and patriotic in the bold step he has taken
to halt the decentralization Of his party
Mr. Whitncv's estimate of the relative
strength of the sound and unsound money
elements in the coming national convcn-
ton clearly proves that he appreciates his
desperate undertaking. He sees Il great
party on the verge of il prccipice ru'hing

!! SENSATON At YALE.

There was -: tremendous sensation on
the Yale campus Monday afternoon caused
by an unexpected remark of Rev. DR.
Joseph Tw itchcll. of Hartford during
his Grafton at the dedication of the W ool-
sey memorial statue.
1t arose from the fact that the ivy plant
ed there after noon was from the grave of
Gen. Robert +. Lee.
Rev Mr. Twitchell holds Il position
among the Iakc alumni second only to
that of Chauncey VI. Depew and his words
are always given great weight
In the course of his speech referring l."
Professor Woolscy, DR., Twitchwell said :
He was Union man, heart and soul and
it would make this bronze statue avert its
head were he to know that the graduating
class of Yale were to plant on the walls of
Il building on the campus. an ivy from the
grave of Gen. Robert + Lee General
Lee was IA good man, but he wa~ Ioval to

GOOD DEMOCRATIC DOCTRINE

The following platform adopted by
the Wisconsin Democrats on Tuesday
is a model of its kind We commend
it as sound Democratic doctrine. 1t
reads:
I'VE believe that The tariff for revenue
only would extend commerce to the ut
termost parts of the earth and that UNI
trammeled Industry would advance our
country to the foremost place among 9th
er nations We are therefore, firm in our
adhel cnce IL the doctrine enunciated 10y
the last national democratic convention
that this government should impose no
tariff taxes except for revenue.
I'VE believe that the demands of com
mercc built upon the broad and enlight
ened doctrine of free trade require Il cur
=. rency that cannot be dscredited i'll any
civilized country.
Realizing this logical demand for the
best money for international trade; real
ling also the danger of a flat currency in
domestic use, and aware that the present
condition of commercial distress calls for
the patriotic and sturdy maintenance OF
national honor and financial Integrity. we
declare ourselves opposed to the free com
aye of silver and in favor of gold, the
highest monetary standard of the world.
These are no uncertain words. If
the Democracy of each of the states
could have had the wisdom to ennnci-
ate such principles, the party would he

country for support. -A> it is every

PLATFORM OF TUE NEW YORK DEMOCRACY

Gold and silvcr-thc money of the con

er-has been the platform of principles
proclaimed by every national democratic
convention, which has thus adopted and
rcatiirmed to each declaration of parry
faith fora century the widom of Thomas
Jefferson, who said: The monetary unit
must stand on both metals"
The action of Il republican Congress
and republican President deprived sill
yer of its equality with gold for the mon
cv and currency of the nation. From this
ct for which the demo ratio party W; in
no wise responsible and from the action
of other nations following in the same
course, it has resulted that silver has
greatly declined in commercial value and
there now exits Il wide departure of the
two metals from the coinage standard of
value-bringing disturbance To the tinan-
cial systems of European countries, as
well as to our own and awakening there,
as here, the earnest apprehension of states
men and tinanciers. The restoration of
the equilibrium of the two metals thus dis
turbed is II problem, the solution of which
is of the greatest consequence to the pros
perity of both this country and of Europe,
but is wholly beyond our power without
the 60 operation of other nations. Such
co operation by the united efforts of states
men and wagc-carnerS here and clScW here
is believed to be near at hand and to be
possible to secure by earnest and well di
