FAME-AN ALLE0ORv,

A temple In the morning light
Rose fair upon the mountain height
And shot its turrets high
Against the vuuited sky.
Tho youth set forth with heart aflamc.
Full armed with faith to write his name
Among The deathicss great
Who conquer adverse fate.
He leaves his home with pouch and STAFF
And answers back with easy laugh
Tho warning and distrust
or those whose hear IL nre dust,
Tho mountain roads are hard to climb
The solemn centuries OF time
Have pressed tho wrinkles deep
On every rolling steep.
Wild hungry boasts crouch In his path,
And slimy serpents hiss their wrath,
While from tho trees tho owls
Hoot In black robes and cowls.
Then follows Night, pilgrim old,
A miser hiding tho sun = gold,
His dark breast deokod with stars
Won in celestial wars.
Still through tho gloom tho temple shed
Its radiance round the Travellers head,
But In Its pallid light
His brown hair turns to white.
BY colder winds his faco In famed.
He longs to clasp some friendly hand
Or feel the welcome touch
OF lips that love him much.
At last the temple gates are won.
Ho entors in, his Journey done,
Then sinks In blank despair.
No living thing Is there.
Ho cannot breathe tho sitting mir.
Tho light, phosphoroscont glare,
That round his path WAS shed
Falls only on the dead.

THE CUBAN LEADER.


AT almost regular intervals within
the past few weeks rumOrS have come
through Spanish sources at Havana of
the death of General Gomez, command
er-in-chief Of the Cuban insurgents.
The leader of the revOluuonists is more
than 30 years old. but he is still man
of indOmitable will and courageous to
the point of absolute fearleSSnesS. He
has been in bad health lately-so sick
in fact. that he has hardly been able to
take the field with his forces. His
death would no doubt. be welcomed by
the SpaniardS with almost as much joy
as q substantial victory over the Gu
bans. He is the brains of the inSur-
gent army, and in strategy has proved
more than a match for both CampOS
and Weyler. He has spent most of his
life on the battlefield. and if he should
die the Cubans would sustain a most
serious loss, as there is no man now
identified with their cause who can I'LL
Gomez'S place. With the Spaniards,
no doubt, the wish is father 10 the
thought.

AN oFT-REPEATED FALsEHooD.

No stronger evidence can be adduced
of the proneness of the gold monOmet-
allists to prevaricate and misrepresent,
than the persiStency with which both
in and out of congress they point 10
Mexico. Mexico, they tell us, has free
coinage of silver and the result has
been TO put that country on 4 silver
basis. And this they ask us to take
as evidence that the opening Of our
minis 10 silver would drive out our
gold and give us silver monometallism.
Because Mexico a nation comparative
~ weak commercially, has failed by
opening her minis to silver, TO maintain
bimetalliSm, any attempt on our part
to do so must also result in failurei To
thus compare the commercial power
of Mexico to that of the United States
and TO declare that the comparatively
small demand for silver by Mexico
would affect the value of silver TO as
great a degree as the MANIFOLD greater
demand for silver consequent on open
ing our minis To silver is absurd. The
internal commerce of the United States
equals the internal and foreign COM
merce of all Europe. outside of the
British Isles, combined, and our COM
mercial power being equal to that of
all Europe it is in our power TO confer
as great a demand on silver as all the
governments of Europe combined. Fl
nally we are told silver standard cOun-
tries are at the bottom OF the scale Of
civilization and gold standard countries
at the top, and we are told to look At
Mexico as evidence of the degrading in
fiuence OF silver recommendation. With
equal business We might refer to the
retrograding condition and barbari,y
of the Turks as the result Of the gold
standard. In 1S4T Holland changed
from the gold standard 70 silver, and a
few years later Germany did the same.
but Dutch and German civilization lid
not retrograde nor was the material
advancement Of those countries check
ed. To compare the restless energy Of
the Anglo-SaIon races with the more
sluggish southern races is folly. To
see the relative effects Of the appreclat-
ing gold standard and 81 the more
stable silver standard. we must com
pare the Mexican OF today. not with
the Anglo-Saxon OF today, but with the
Mexican Of twenty years and the An
glo-Sa1on American of today with The
Anglo-Saxon American Of twenty years
ago. And when we do 50 We VIII find

BANKERS AND DEPOSITS.

The decision of the Illinois supreme
court in the MedOwcraft case, briefly
reported in the press dispatches, was
wide reaching. The MeadoWcraftS
were bankers, indicted under a COM
paradvely recent statute, making the
acceptance of a deposit by any bank
ing officer, at a time when the bank
is insolvent, an act of embeZZlement,
punishable by a fine double the amount
of the deposit and by Imprisonment
for from one 10 five years. More
stringent even than this, helaw further
declares that the failure of a bank
within thirty days from the date of the
deposit shall be prima facie evidence
Of an intention To defraud. The first
contention of the Meadowcraft counsel
was that banking was an ordinary bus
mess pursuit, like selling groceries;
that the receiving Of deposits made
the relation between banker and de-
poSitOr only the ordinary relation Of
debtor and creditor, and that the stat
Ute was invalid because it placed re-
StrictionS around an ordinary business
pursuit. The court disposed of this
by the statement that the business of
a banker is affected with a public in
terest and Is therefore subject 10 pub
lie regulation. The main point, as
well as the most interesting one. in the
contention was that the provision in
the law making the receipt OF a deposit
within thirty days OF failure evidence
Of intent TO defraud. without introduce
ton of evidence 10 show criminal III
tent. was unconstitutional because il
was in derogation OF the right 20
presumption of innocence until guilt
i proved. To this the court answers
thar no one has vested right in the
rules of evidence. that such rules are
subject 10 modification and control by
the legislature. and that that body may
provide that q designated fact shall be
prima facie evidence Of certain other
fact. Passing from generalizati ton 70
particulars. the court presumes t-at

THE TRIBUNEs FLOP.

The Chicago Tribune has exper
fenced change OF heart toward Nc
Kinley. In last Thursdays issue i
said editorially that 1.-The delegates Il
the Republican convention should moi
lose sight of the fact that, while the un
thinking. the light-minded, the easily
Influenced apd the 'hurrah boys have
] been carried away TO some extent by
the Mckinley stampeders, the political
and business intelligence Of the coun
try has not been affected thereby and
is infiexibly opposed TO his nomlna-
lion
In the neXt issue of the paper its edi-
tor comes off his high perch by saying:
lie McKinley) has kept in line with
the Republican party ali the time, and
he is sound enough now 10 satisfy as
eXacting a man as Senator Sherman.
and tnat Endorsement should satisfy
every reasonable Republican. If nom
inated and elected we have no fear
whatever of his going astray on the
financial question"
This fat reputation of itself by the
Tribune is no mere within of its editor
ial writer. No such a paper can af-
ford 10 plume itself as a political
weathercOck. There is a reason for
this flop, and a good one TOO. Its man.
ayers have undoubtedly had adviceS
from their subscribers, and are too
shrewd to stand in the way of the jug
gernaut of public opinion. The spon-
taneOus uprising among its readers for
the Ohio candidate came down like a
cyclone upon the Tribune office, and
as the death-dealing cyclone makes
quick work with everything in its path
50 this tornado of public wrath left
the Tribune's tower of opposition TO
their choice a hopeless, shapeleSs ruin.
This great daily is lucky in one par
ticular: 1t is the first gOldbug organ
to see the trend of things, and to recOg-
niZe the voice of the people Others
will fall into line with more or less
grumbling, all in obedience to the ire
Sistible voice of the majority which is
to choose our next president. 1t is
not so much the personal favoritism for
any candidate. If Mr.. Mckinley stands
as the exponent of the peoples voice on
leading issues, he will be the Republi-
can candidate, and he will also be the
next president if he lives till NoveIn-
Der. The goldbug, low tariff press may
wage its war Of education" till its edi-
tors and its baron hackers are black in
the face, but the voters, having sized
up these issues, will cast their ballots
intelligently, and elect the man who
represents their well matured senti-
ment. 1t only remains for these or
gans to climb into the band wagon, and
raise their little voices to swell the Nc
Kinley chorus.

This does not indicate that the silver
sentiment is dead or is dying out 1t
over the Republicans Of Ohio, and that
change has been in the direction of
silver.
And yet these eastern gold standard
papers were little while ago ordering
the silver Republicans in the United
States senate out of the Republican
party. Since then they have come to
a place where they are not ordering
silver men out of the Republican party
but are measuring up the amount of
crow they must eat if they support the
Republican nominee for president of
the United States.
