There is excellent authority for saying that
the purpose Of Senator Smiths visit was to dis
suade Mr. McDermott from publishing his let
ter And it is altogether likely that McDer-
mott meant what he said. He does not belong
10 that class of politicians who are willing 10
surrender whatever principles they may have
and advocate anything that is likely to put them
in power or keep them there.
There are some people cruel enough to desire
the IMPRISONMENT OF William o. Mcdowell! be-
cause he is unable to explain satisfactorily what
was done with all the money received by MIN

rather wild as 1t has been estimated heretofore |

The Judge could do better by explaining in hts
own practical way the mischief that would re-
suit from free coinage. The silver men are back
ing their position by plausible arguments. and
the only way TO nullify their efforts is to show
the people that National prosperity and Ma
tional honor require the maintenance Of the gold
standard.
