IT'S W0RST.

Well, the convention held in the name
of Jeffersonian Democracy has done it's
worst, and that worst is pretty bad. 1t
has adopted platform composed of
financial fallacy and fraud, Populism
and Anarchy. 1t has put on that plat
form as it's nominee for president of
this great country THE boy orator Of
the Platte" young man SO years DID,
distinguished chiefly for his ability to
voice the complaints, the crankiness
and the craft of those who nominated
him. We do not mean to charge him
with "the atrocious crime of being a
young man. but we do mean to charge
him with the atrocity of being such a
young man as he is. He is thorough
going Populist, and though he has not
been working in the Populist vineyard
anywhere near as long as "Silver Dick"
and some Of the others have he has no
reason to find fault with his wage.
OF course what has been done in Chi
cago in the name of Jeffersonian De-
mocracy Is not that at all. Jefferson
said that "the proportion between the
values of gold and silver is a mercan-
tile problem altogether" AS to fixing
Just principles will lead us to disre
gard the legal proportion altogether; to
inquire into the market price Of gold in
the several countries with. which we
shall principally be connected in COM
meree and to take an average from
them" And Jefferson was not a Pop
ulist or an Anarchist. His true follow
ers to-day are not Free-Silverites, Pop
ulists or Anarchists, and they can't
and wont come under the yoke which
the Chicago convention has tried to put
upon them.
1t is a good thing that the issue has
at last been made clear and open. 1t
is high time. There have been compro-
misses enough and straddling enough.
New let's have a fair and square fight
and see what the people Of this country
are. At some other times in the his
tory Of the country when there has
been some doubt about their intelli-
gence and their honesty they have sur
prised the pessimists and pained the
cranks and swindlers by vigorous and
right action. We believe that common
sense, common honesty and true patri-
otism will come out on top this time.
This is not a time for much talk about
parties and politics. 1t is time when
all who love their country should act
generously and heartily together
against it's wild and wicked enemies.

two or three years the augmentation
has been extraordinary; and that now
the total output far exceeds the great
est production of the most fruitful year
Immediately following the gold discov-
cries in Austrilia and California. If
the bimetallists Were right, such an ex-
traordinary increase In the gold pro-
duction ought to have led to proper
Tomato increase in the coinage of gold.
1t Is matter Of public knowledge that
the royal mint coins gold without
charge for all who send it in. Thus the
theory OF the bimetallist is put to the
test, and experience shows that it is
absolutely unfounded. During 1894 and
1895 (the two years Of the greatest gold
production the world has ever known)
there has been a continuous decline in
the coinage Of gold at the mint. Gold
has come to this country in unprece-
IDENTIFY large amounts. The Bank of
England Is literally oyercrowded with
the metal; the directors are at their
wits ends how to store it. But neither
they. nor the great capitalists of the
country, nor any of the other banks,
think it worth while to send gold to be
coined

The Fallacy of Bimetallism.
Unudon Statist \

On September 2S of last year, under
the heading, THE Coming Rise in
Prices we showed that the quantity
of metallic money that could be got
into circulation in any one country, or
in the whole world is very limited
that, therefore, the bimetallists are al
together wrong in thinking that an in
crease in money would raise prices;
and that. in fact, it is the range of
prices and the activity of trade which
determine the quantity of money in
circulation. The report just issued by
the deputy master of the mint very
strongly, and very appropriately, af-
lords evidence in confirmation of the
view put forward in the article just re-
ferred to. During the ten years, 1885
TO 1894, the annual average coinage of
gold by the royal mint was g 767 III;
but in the year 1894 the actual coinage
was only 95,67S, 100-a considerable de-
crease, it will be seen, compared with
the average of the decennial period;
and in the year 1895 there was still
more marked fall to barely e3,S10,6S
1t is hardly necessary to remind the
reader that the output of gold has been
increasing in an extraordinary way for
the past ten years; that during the past

to him while acting as junior trustee
OF an estate left to her mother, herself
and her three sisters. He had to go
over certain of their accounts, and,
among other things, found a bill for
their summer outfit of shoes which
quite took his breath away. The entire
family was much given to outdoor
sports and their needs in the way of
footgear are thus summarized. The list
started out with golf and tennis shoes,
four pairs; cycling shoes, four pairs
and after those came what the girls
would have called their "tramping
boots for mountain climbing and all
that sort of thing, adding up another
four pairs, followed by what as chill
dren they were wont to call their
dress up" for each, pair of very
looking patent-leather ties, and
four pairs of patent-leather slippers,
besides four pairs of kid ties, some
black, others bronze; while each
daughter was in need Of two pairs of
satin dancing slippers to match her
frocks, and besides a pair each of
white-kid ties, and finishing up with
four pairs of simple toilet slippers and
four pairs of bathing shoes. The mo-
Tiers bill was headed by one pair of
fishing boots, one pair Of half boots,
with rubber soles; then followed riding
and cycling boots, each one pair walk
ing boots, and two pairs of dress-ties,
pair Of patentleather slippers, one
pair of black satin slippers and an
other satin pair to match a dinner
gown, the list ending with one pair of
pale-blue kid mules and one pair of
bathing-s hoes-the entire number for
the family amounting to fifty-six pairs
of shoes for the seasons outfit
No wonder the eligible young man
was frightened, and became doubtful of
his ability to provide shoes for his be-
loved in which her pretty and dear feet
could tread the howery paths of matri-
mony with him. He evidently couldn't
make up his mind to go barefooted
himself while endeavoring to provide
shoes for her. So he will walk the
hard road of single life until he comes
across some fine young woman who
doesn't need fourteen pairs of shoes a
summer.

POOR Old SILYER DICK.

One can perhaps profltably pick
moment out of the hurry in which to
set down a word of sympathy with
"Silver Dick" He was 1.-THE logical
candidate" He was also apparently
the sure candidate. Up to the time of
Bryans speech it looked as if "Silver
Dick" would be chosen, and as if long
persistence and exceptional constancy
in a bad cause would have it's reward.
He modestly stayed away from the
convention, and, judging from what
has been in the papers, spent most of
his time sitting on his lawn in his
shirtsleeves waiting for the lightning
of Populistic favor to strike him. But
it has not struck him. Instead the
blight of ingratitude and tickleness has
struck HIM and he is now sitting in the
shadow OF what gifted obituary
writer once called 1.-THE sad ending of
brilliant future Poor silver Dick"
He deserved a somewhat better fate,
but as he ought to have been in better
business it is impossible to weep on his
account as much as some who give him
credit for honesty and consistency
might if he had become martyr to
something besides free silver and Popu-
lism. Day before yesterday the cry
was
Give us Silver Dick and silver quick
And we will make Mckinley sick.
To-day it is not Mckinley who is sick.
