The Pioneer Press should be prompt
ly "churched." In the face of the ST.
Louis platform; in the teeth of the
Great Apostle of Protection; In rank
contradiction of the shouters on the
stump and alarmists in the press of its
party since for three years past, it now
admits that lit was the threat of con-
gress to force the government to the
silver basis standard which precipi-
tated the panic of 1893" In some more
candid interval later it will admit that
1T was not a threat" but the acts of
congress that did the precipitation. 1t
was the act of congress Of 1873 stop
ping the retirement of the greenback
and compelling their reissue; 1t was the
act of the same year to buy silver and
issue certificates for it; it was the act
or 1890 increasing the purchases to
s4,50O000 month and paying for it in
notes redeemable in gold The threat"
to force the government to the silver
standard" was contained in these acts,
and they alone are the cumulative
causes of the panic of 1893

called arbitration convention, hearings,
evidence and arguments, but as
grand result, instead OF a binding adj
judication only an opinion without
legal force or sanction, unless accepted
by the parties.
The vital difference between the two
proposals, he says, Is manifest. Under
the British plan the parties enter into
arbitration, and determine afterwards,
when they know the result, whether
they will be bound or not. Under the
United States proposal, the parties en-
ter into an arbitration, having deter
mined beforehand that they will be
bound. The latter is genuine arbi>
tration; the former is g. mere imita
ton. The plan of Lord Salisbury Is,
that all the forms and ceremonies Of
arbitration should be gone through
with, but with liberty for either party
to reject the award If not to it's liking.
1t is respectfully submitted that a pro-
ceeding of that sort must have ten
dency to bring all arbitration into con-
tempt; that each party to a dispute
should decide to abide by an award be-
fore entering into an arbitration or
should decide not to enter into it at all.
and once entering into it, should be ir-
revOcably bound

Letters Laid Before the House of
Lords.


LONDON, July 1.-THE MARQUIS Of
Salisbury laid before the house of lords
today the papers on the subject of ar
bitration. His lordship said that the
negotiations between the United States
and Great Britain were not complete,
but that they are advancing amicably.
On the smaller question of Venezuela.
regarding which the United States had
assumed an attitude of friendly pro
lection, difficulties arose out of the
fact that Venezuela's claim placed
tWo-thirdS Of the colony of British
Guiana subject to arbitration. The
first thing necessary was to ascertain
the real facts in regard to the con-
troyersy from the history of Vene-
zuela. When that had been fully as
certained by a commission. in which
both countries had confidence, he felt
that the diplomatic questions which
would follow would not be very diff
cult of adjustment, but even if they
should be, he did not fear for the re-
suit.
Lord Salisbury concluded bv saving,
that he had pursued, with the consent
of the United States, an unusual
course in laying these papers on the
table, while negotiations were still
pending. This had been done In order
that the best fntellects on both sides
should apply themselves to a matter
affecting the welfare of the whole hu-
man race, In such a singular degree
and especially the good relations WITH
the United States, with which If was
the desire of the government to be on
the friendliest terms. The remarks Of
the marquis of Salisbury were greeted
with nearly cheers by the lords

A MISTAKEN VIEW.

A sound money Democrat writes to
the G | o b e to express the frequently
heard opinion that it is not good policy
in this campaign to divide the sound
money vote" He thinks that all Dem
ocrats who believe in the honest dol
lar should vote for Mckinley, and
therefore that there should be no other
ticket put into the field. The
premise, even if 1t were accepted.
does not draw the conclusion after it.
because there are hosts of sound
money Democrats who do not believe
and feel as this correspondent does.
To him free silver appears an inf
nitely greater evil and danger than
high protection, but we beg to remind
him that there are thousands and
thousands of Democrats who just re-
verse the order. They are opposed to
both protection and free silver. but of
the two they believe the former to be
the worse, because they consider it the
parent of the other. If 1t comes to a
test and they have to choose between
these unpalatable issues, they will
feel it their duty to swallow free sill
yer and oppose McKinleyism as a mat
ter of conscience.
Our correspondent does make any
provision for these voters at all. If
there should be straight Democratic
ticket in the field, men like himself
could still vote for Mckinley IL they
felt 1t their duty and believed it neces-
sary to avert national danger. But
If there is no such ticket in the field.
the Democrats who believe in sound
money, but do not believe, as he does.
that this is as important as 1t Is to
crush out the robbery OF the protective
system, have no place of retreat.
They will either not vote at all or they
will vote for Mr.. Bryan. In our judy
ment, when the stress Of battle Is on.
and when these Democrats who hate
cheap money and reputation, but hate
McKinleyism quite as ardently, are
brought to the choice. they will elect
to vote the ticket labeled Democratic,
under protest.
This argument is reinforced by that
so ably stated by Mr.. Eckels, that
Democratic voters ought to be able in

TESTS OF DEMOCRACY.

We have to call attention once more
in view of another communication
which we publish this morning, to the
futility Of attempting to enforce as q
test of Democracy the support of the
Chicago platform and candidates
There are too many men in this conn
try today, whose Democracy will pass
without question in any assembly. who
are on the other side of that issue. for
any man or set of men to read them
out of the party Neither is If true
that the test of Democracy is unques-
tloning agreement with every plank in
its platform. The platform adopted in
1892, and upon which Mr.. Cleveland
was elected, declared for the repeal of
the 10 per cent tax on state bank is
sues. There were not less than a mil
lion voters who called themselves Dem
ocrats and voted the Democratic ticket.
while rejecting uncompromisingly this
portion of the platform.
Now, as to the denial of the name
of Democrat to men who say that they
will not vote for Mr.. Bryan or for free
silver, we desire to call attention nar-
ticuKarly to some utterances of Mr..
w. j. Bryan, on behalf Of whom it is
attempted to whip Democrats into line.
In the year 1895 Mr. Bryan made q
political tour through the Southern
states. He had at that time. as we
understand it, severed his connection
with the Democratic party and de-
clared himself Populist. However
that may be, his speeches made at that
time are on record. In an address de-
ivered at Birmingham, Ala, he said:
Nothing in heaven above on the earth be-
low or in hell beneath could make me sun
port gold standard candidate on a gold
standard platform.
That was a year in advance of the
Democratic national convention. and
leaves no question where Mr.. BRYAN
stood in the matter of holding that a
majority should rule Again. In the
same year, he delivered a speech at
Jackson, Miss. At that meeting Judge
Brame asked him the direct question
whether he would or would not support
the action OF the Democratic national
convention if it refused to declare for
free coinage at Is to 1. Here is his
reply:
So help me God 1 will die In my tracks
before will support it
Now, we are not questioning the
right of Mr.. Bryan or of any other cit
izen to take this position If he desires
to. tbs his privilege to support what
ever candidate and whatever party he
may see fit But we do say that man
who has declared in advance. with sol
emn adjurations, in the name of both
the upper and the under world. that he
will not be bound by any conventions
action or by any platform, If they de-
part from his individual views. has no
right to claim these as of binding force

sion and the triumph of the enemy in
a contest which can no more apply di-
rectly or indirectly to the success or

Ireland. Free silver is not in any
sense. in principle or application or de-

the powers thereof cannot so much as

a United States senator has no voice

sit in its legislature may hold with
regard to money and coinage is not of
the slightest earthly Importance.
Here, at least, is place In which all
Democrats can get together, and where
1T is their duty to get together. I'm
happily, divided as they are by siren
uous convictions for and against the
icy, there is no reason why they should
permit this difference to carry the line
of cleavage down to the foundation of
the partys existence, and to render 1t
we'll as in the nation Let us grant to
each other sincerity of opinion on the
great issue that has been raised be-
fore the people at large, and agree that
each man must follow the leadings of
his conscience until this paramount is
sue has been decided. But let us not
carry that difference into the party
household and set brother against
brother in a civil strife over which
the enemy can gloat and rejoice as he
marches to easy victory.
1t is proposed to the Dem
ocrats Of this state that they
surrender, practically, their party
name and leadership to renegade
Republicans. Is this wise, is it neces-
sary, is it loyal to the faith? If
we refuse to support Mr.. Mckinley
abhorrent principles Of Republicanism,
on what ground, with what conscience
or self-respect can we support for
members of congress and for high Of
fees of state men who are just as ar
dent and thoroughgoing Republicans
as Mr.. Mckinley in their particular
sphere, because of their accept
ance of the free silver doc
trine? Is not this a lower estate
than the party in Minnesota has ever
reached, and is it not an invitation to
party disunion and defeat? If you give
to the Democrats of Minnesota only
can candidate or another how can you
expect to avert the destruction of De-
mocracy itself and it's absorption by
one or the other of the two wings

1t is great year for Minnesota
Democrats to hold together. The mu-

No Inquest Over the Suicide Dwyer
st. Paul & Duluth Work

Coroner Freleigh decided yesterday that he
would not hold an inquest over the remains
of Ollie G. Dwyer, who committed suicide at
the Sawyer house early Thursday morning
by taking nearly an eighth of en- ounce of
strychnine. The coroner considers it a sure
case of suicide, as all circumstances point
to it. Dwyer had been around town with
some friends prior to retiring and had showed
them the bottle Of strychnine but said he
was going to the woods and wanted it to
kill wolves with There is theory that he
may have taken the dose by mistake. He
had been drinking little and had a bottle
of liquor with him in the room where the
body was found. As nearly as can be learned
Dwyer was not in trouble Of any kind and
if it was a case Of suicide no one seems to
know the slightest reason for the deed.

Thursday on the supposition that he was
mentally unbalanced, permitted to go

Morgan said II was taken from the

children. Six men gathering bananas
were killed and the bananas stuffed
down their threats as a joke. Gu
