We do not call to mind any other such
stake among the nations as that placed upon
the issue; and the bondplayers have won on
every deal. They have succeeded ON both
counts OF their policy. They have turned
over the debt into new forms OF bond, and
these again into newer, under the name OF re-
funding persuading the people that the pro-
cess was wise and ncedful. and cabling them
with the belief that the rate OF interest was
each time reduced for the benefit of the ma
ton.
1t is true that each act Of refundmg and
transforming the national debt has lowered
somewhat the nominal rate OF interest; but at

The total amount Of claims admitted

declared in this settlement after nine

THE SILVER PLATFORM.

The National Silver party in conven-
ton assembled hereby adopts the follow
ing declaration Of principles:
/. The paramount issue at this time
in the United States is indlsputably the
money question. 1t is between the gold
standard, the gold bonds and bank cur
rency on one side, and the bimetallic
STANDARD, no bonds and government cur
rency on the other. On this issue we de-
clare ourselves to be in favor Of a dis.
~tinctively American system. We are
unalterably opposed to the single gold
standard and demand immediate return
to the constitutional standard Of gole
and silver by restoration by this govern
ment, Independently OF any foreign pow

Twenty-eighth Anniversary Of the Z

Twenty-eighth Anniversary of the Pc
ginning of Their Ten-Years War.
TAMPA, Fla, Oct. 12.-The Cubans
in this city celebrated the 2Sth anniver.
sary of the outbreak of their 10-years
struggle for liberty. This event is Gel
ebrated by all the Cuban colonies
throughout the country. The houses
of Cubans in this city were decorated
with IL p~rofusion of bunting and flags,
and after dark the verandas of their
houses were hung with Chinese lam
terms. A brilliant pyrotechnical dis
play was given at night from
| Cespedes hall in West Tampa,
and was a prelude to a ball, where the
| elite of Cuban society assembled to con-
clude the eventful day. General Fer
nando Figuerado, who was an aide to
Cespedes in the outbreak, said that the
causes which led up to the outbreak
were identical to those which led up to
it in 1875. If the Cubans do not win
this time, they will continue to harass
the Spanish government until they
finally throw off the yoke of Spanish
oppression. The indications at pres
ent, he asserted. are most fiattering tt
their cause, and the Cuban leaders fully
expect to win the struggle during thu
summer.

STANDARDIZATION as will prevent further
demonstration of any kind OF legal ten
der money by private contract. we
hold the power to control and regulate
paper currency is inseparable from the
power to coin money, and hence that al
currency intended to circulate as money
should be issued and it's volume con-
trolled by the general government only,
and it should be legal tender. We are
unalterably opposed to the issue by the

treasury policy, concurred in by the re-
publican house, Of plunging the country
IN debt by hundreds of millions in a vain
attempt to maintain the gold standard
by borrowing gold, and We demand the
payment Of all coin obligations OF the
United States as provided by existing
laws in either gold or silver coin at the
option Of the government and not at the
option Of the creditors.

pay his just obligations in an honest

end further that present silver standard

advantage they nov enjoy in the differ
