The discrepancy between the figures given
by Mr. Horr and the Chicago IpterOcean is
die to the fact that the latter counts the
"seven-thiries' and some other forms of
paper as currency, lille Mr.. Horr refuses to
do so. But these forms of paper were legal
tender and were therefore money and served all
the purposes of money.
The reader will find the above table, giving
the amount of currency, and the number of
failures from year to year, most instructive

FROM Norton's Monthly Sentinel Joliet,

Hanna of Cleveland, Ohio. 1t is said that he

"Free silver and no compromise" is the
slogan of the silver Democrats, and we know
the Cleveland ring will go to the Republican
party if defeated in the convention. History is
being made rapidly in 1896
Cleveland is becoming anxious, and sent the
committee of the New York chamber of COM
ucrce OH politics to Chicago with urgent ap-
peals to push the gold battle in Illinois, Indi-
ana, Ohio aud Missouri. Good for Grover! 1t
all comes our way.
Correspondence from Washington says: "In-
terest centers in the financial question, and
everything is for the time being subordinated to
that idea -
News brought into Washington shows that
the Chicago convention will be very evenly
divided between the goldbugs and silver men.
There will probably not be majority of over
fifty or seventy-6ve on either side. The gold
bug Democrats of several of the southern states
threaten to send up contesting delegations and
thus prevent the silver men from voting on the
organic ition.

In fighting Senator Peffer's resolution to in
vestigate the bond deal, Senator Hill took
occasion to say that it was time the members of
the old parties got together to down the Popu-
lists That is just right. They can't do it
any too soon. The break up of the old parties
is coming this year. 1t is going to be 1860
over again-and you all know what followed
the political breakup of 1860.
1t looks as if it was going to be a fight to
finish on the financial question this year.
Compromises won't go any longer. Neither
side will be satisfied with wishy-washy declar-

other dollar" The free coinage issue is be-
coming so clear cnt in the old parties that it
won't do to dodge it any longer. The Repub-
licans may try the Ohio straddle, but it will
cost them votes by the thousand to do it. The
Democrats will declare either for the gold
standard or for free silver; and whichever way
it is, the other fellows are sure to bolt Party
names can't be conjured with this year. People
are bound to ask the politicians "where they

season for shuffling or evasion.

The NEXT GOVERNOR OF MAINE.

From now until the September cleo
ton Hon. LleWellyn Powers Of Houl-
ton. will be the standard bearer of the
Republican party of this State; and for
the following two years he will be the
governor of Maine. The convention at
Bangor, Tuesday, ratified the approval
with which his party viewed his can
didacy; the election in September will
be an approval by the people Of that
ratification at Bangor.
There are few in Maine, having even
limited acquaintance With our public
men. Who have not met Mr.. Powers

men and frank in his opposition as
well as in his favor. He is Il fine

to reason. AS an opponent he Is
