1t Is shrewdly conjectured that
the holders of the certificates Of
deposit in the savings banks of the
country will not willingly see the
free silver policy take effect. If it
does the dollars that were put in
there on q gold basis OF value at
one hundred cents on the dollar
will be paid for In silver dollars
worth only fifty three cents, upon
gold basis. 1t lie pertinent to en-.
quire who gets the difference?
Also, is this the way that free sill
yer coinage is to help the poor
people? There is no reason to con.
clude that all the people are de-
mented.

There is no use to decry the per-
sonal magnetism OF the grafton
that made Bryan the nominee OF
the Chicago convention. It teaches
two things. First, that it was a
mighty poor conglomeration of
sound brains or it would not have
been swept from its moorings by a
windy speech; second, that the
nomination that was made on q
hurrah defamation must be car.
ried on in the same way. Can a
contest be supported for four
months of hard fighting on such
war material?

is by no means discouraging
Spain is in ferment over the po-

States, and which che refuses to
abandon, and talks all sorts of non
sense about engineering a Euro

doctrine, but she is as powerless as
though she had hook in her nose.

can do and would knock her out in

A FAIR PROPOSITION.

|
The basis of agreement between
the lilly whites and the regular re-
publican party OF this state, If fair
ly stated in a recent dispatch from
Dallas, is such as should be prompt
ly accepted by the republicans.
This is no time for pickering.
There should be a prompt accept
ance of the olive branch offered by
the lilly whites. There can be no
two opinions among fair minded
men as to that offer. 1t proposes
that the lilly whites will abandon
their separate organization and
come into the Fort Worth conven-
tion on equal terms with regular
republicans upon the following
conditions: That the convention
will act fairly, and will consent to
a call OF the roll of the delegates
when 80 demanded; also, that no
more members of a delegation
will be allowed seats on the
floor of the convention
than that delegation is entitled to
cast votes. This means in plain
English that the county with
three votes shall only have upon
the floor OF the convention three
delegates, and the county with ten
votes shall have ten delegates.
This is as 1t ought to be. The con-
fusion and mob rule of Texas con.
ventions has been brought about
by allowing each delegation to
bring as many members upon the
floor of the convention as is de-
sired. Delegations with only six
or eight votes had as many as
thirty or more, who were, like the
rooters on baseball ground, there
for the noise and Generalization
they could bring about. In the
national conventions the seats
for delegates are restricted
to the number of votes. One seat
for one vote, no more or less. The
lilly whites in demanding this |
as the rule of the Texas conven-
tions are only asking what is just,
what is in accordance with party |
usage and what would conduce
more than anything else to an or.
Derby convention. In their request
that the roll shall be called on de-
mand, there is only cause for
party humiliation in the pct that
such a thing should be demanded.
1t is so obviously just that 1t
should never have been denied,
and then it would not have been
necessary to demand it. In addi-
ton to these, is the demand that
no proxies should be allowed In the
hands Of parties outside OF
the county authorizing the proxy.
This also is right. Our conven-
lions have been flooded with dele
gates with thirty or forty proxies
In their pockets, exercising an I'M
due influence upon the movements
and decisions of the conventions.
II no delegate from that county
can put in an appearance its in
terests are as safe with the con-
as a whole as with the
man who Grams his pockets with
proxies for his own individual
profit. Upon these conditions the
lily whites offer to return to the
regular party and act in concert |
with it in this state. 1t is a propo-
sition that should be accepted i'm
with thanks.

The charge is made that since
Bryan withdrew from the democrat.
ic party two years ago he has been
in the employ of a silver syndicate,
agitating the free coinage of silver
at 16 to / ratio for a considera.
ton of several thousands year.
Bryan has not seen fit to answer
the indictment. This may or may
not be true, but it is true that a
few short years since he was pro-
nounced bimetalist and not a mo-
nometalist OF the silver kind. The
fact is that Bryan is too young to
have solidifiedhis opinions and is IL
able to advance almost any theory.

A memorial before congress from the
Legislature of Wyoming contains some
interesting information and deserves
attention.
THAT the region embraces between
townships AZ and Al north, and ranges
lib and 1l6 west Of the sixth principal
meridian, contains the most noble and
inspiring mountain scenery to be found
on this continent. 1t is the switzerland
OF America, In which the Matterhorn
finds worthy counterpart in the Grand
Teton, whose majestic and inaccessible
heights are reflected in the clear
depths, and whose rugged grandeur Is
in marvellous contrast to the placid
beauty Of the mountain lakes which lie
at its base. In immediate proximity to
the National park. its attractions are
of wholly different character. To
gether they form Q panorama which in
its beauty and diversity OF attractions
is without counterpart. The Grand
Teton is the elimination Of this region,
the fitting and appropriate land mark
Of this national pleasure ground"
II Is further urged that this region is
a great game preserve, and ''the winter
feeding ground of the game that finds
summer home in the Yellowstone
park" and further, that this winter
home ought to be protected. For this
reason the Wyoming Legislature asks
congress to make the tract ID question
