Since the results Of the various
State Conventions have demonstrated
hat the Republican N8tionnl Conven-
tiOn will indOrse the gold standard
and denOunce free silver coinage at
the ratio of Is to /, VI silver Repuh-
lican exchanges vefnund something
besides the money question to writ
about. They are ihdustrinusly incul-
eating the idea that after al protect
ion is the issue, and no matter what
position the platform NAV take on
the silver question. the Mckinley idea
OF protection is sufficient to keep all
Republicans in the middle If the
road.-Visalia Times.
You have not heard any such
change in language from the Bee.
No matter what happens, this paper
will always be-as it ever has been
devoted to the cause Of the people
against the gold gamblers. It will
ever champion the rights OF silver.
1t will ever battle for the de Iteration
by the Governme Mt that evey dollar
stamped by it must be accepted by it,
citizens at its face value. It will ever
crusade for a law making it a felony
to depreciate the face value Of anv
money issued by the Government.
The cause of silver may not win be-
fore the coming Repuh lean National
Convention, But it as certairly DIES
tined to achieve victory shortly, as
the stars are to shine and the sun to
shed its warming rays.
And when the day Of triumph shall
come, every Republican newspaper
in California, which now blows a
golden note, or i silent for fearof dis
turbing the harmony Of those who
are blowing. will rush to the front
and loudly trumpet forth that it has
ever been a loyal knight for the cause.
But The Bee has not despaired Of
the St, Louis CnnvehtiOn It hopes
and believes yet hal a victory can be
gained for silver on the floor Of that
National Convention, which will
shatter the confidence of the gold hugs
and give renewed hopes to the silver
ties, At any rate, it does hot believe
hat a hattl- was ave won by waiting
for Il victory to come along.
The time to say that the St. Louis
Convention will not declare for silver
is after it has absolutely refused to SO
declare-nOt before.

Republican Factions at the Bay Are
Still Fighting.

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 26.-The two
factions of the local Republican party,
through chosen representatives, had q
final conference this afternoon and en-
deavored to reach harmonious un-
derstanding. All efforts at reconciiia-
tion failed, the two factions agreeing to
disagree. Frank Mclaughlin, chair
man of the Republican state central
committee, has in consequences OF the
failure to harmonize, called meeting
of the state executive committee for
Monday, when a subcommittee will be
appointed to look after Republican at
fairs in San Francisco and devise a
plan for calling q new Republican mu
nicipal convention.
Chairman Riordan, of the Spreckels
convention, had promised to present an
acceptable plan of compromise at to-
days conference. Instead Of doing 80,
however, he presented written COM
munication this afternoon setting forth
that the unioH with which he is connect
ed declined 20 consider any proposition
for peace coming from the Kelley-Me-
hoi.ev action.
The document also defied the state
central committee and questioned the
right of that body to interfere in local
affairs. Major Mclaughlin took charge
of the letter. and at the close of the
conference announced that he would call
a meeting Of the executive committee
of the state committee for Monday, when
steps will be taken to force the Spreck-
els end to recognize the authority of
the state central committee.
