TOO JEALOUS.

Some of the papers that are advocat-
ing Major McKinley's cause have been
little too Jealous, and have begun to
realize, after it is too late, that abuse
is poor argument. They seem to have
| had the idea that all that was necessary
to convince people they were wrong
| was to call them thieves and liars, and
now they are beginning to reap the
fruits OF their folly. The Herald, pub
lished at Marshall, ILL.,, is shedding
tears of blood over its rashness, and
the party it represents has been kept
busy the past two weeks endeavoring
to repair the damage done by the fol-
lowing editorial:
"When you see free silverite you
see man who wouldn't earn dollar
honestly if he could get it dishonesty;
one who would let his wife take in
washing for a living while he held
down dry goods boxes; one who never
owned pair of pants without Cleve-
land badge on the seat; and one who
will steal before he will provide for his
own household; one who thinks he con
ride to glory in a political band wagon:
one who sees fat job in the future if
the thing wins; one who shuts his eyes
while somebody slips from SO cents to
S. into his hand for his vote; one who
has no more stamina, no more princi-
pie, no more self respect than to be
bribed to commit any crime. This
may be a little harsh but it is true to
the letter."
No sooner had this article appeared
in the Herald than silver republicans
began deserting the standard of Nc
Kinley and uniting with Bryan clubs,
and now they are using their endeavors
to carry Illinois for the silver cham
pion.

THE PLATFORM.
1t Declares for Gold the Basic Money
of the Country

1t Declares for Gold as the Basic Money
of the Country.
The platform adopted by the con-
vention, after declaring the allegiance
of the national democrats to the prin-
ciples of tariff reform, economical ad-
ministration, aud arraigning the re-
publican party for it's class legislation,
treats on the money question as
follows:
"The experience of mankind has
shown that, by their natural qualities,
gold is the necessary money of the
large affairs of commerce and business,
while silver is conveniently adapted to
minor transactions, and the most bene-
fetal use of both together can be in
sured only by the adoption of the
former as the standard of monetary
measure and the maintenance of silver
at a parity with gold by its limited
coinage under such safeguards of law.
Thus is the largest possible enjoyment
of both metals gained, with the value
universally accepted throughout the
world, which constitutes the only
practical currency, assuring the most
stable standard, and especially the
best and safest money for all who earn
a livelihood by labor or the produce of
husbandry. They cannot suffer when
paid in the best money known to man,
but are peculiar and most defenseless
victims of o debased and fuctuating
currency, which offers continued pro-
fits to the money-changer, at their
cost.
"Realizing these truths, demonstra-
ted by long public inconvenience and
loss, the democratic party, in the
interest of the masses and equal justice
to all, practically established by the
legislation of 1884 and 1858 the gold
standard OF monetary measurement,
and likewise entirely divorced the
government from banking and cur
rency issues.
"Rut we denounce also, further, tho
maintenance OF the present costly
patchwork system OF na tional paper
currency as constant source ofipjury
and peril. We assert the necessity
Of such an intelligent currency system
as will confine the government to its
legislative functions, completely
separated from the banking business
and afford to all sections of our
country uniform, safe and electric
bank currency under government
measured In volume by the
needs of business"

CARLISLE IN EVIDENCE.

Secretary of the Treasury John G
Carlisle stands today as one of tht
most ardent advocates of gold stand
ard, and is one of the prime movers
who brought about the Indianapoli!
convention of the national democrats
In his speeches and letters Secretary
Carlisle tells the world that single
gold standard is desirable in the United
States because "gold is the recognized
money of civilization. Carlisle now
is gold monometalist, pure and sim
pie. He wants gold to be the rec
ognized basic money of this and al
other countries. He says gold is the
money of civilization, silver the money
of barbarism. According to Carlisle
now, no country can be progressive
that is not on q gold basis. But
Carlisle was not always thus. When
his official existence depended upon
the popular vote of the people he was
bimetalist and termed the demoneti.
zation of silver a crime. On Febru-
ary 21, 1878, Mr.. Carlisle saidi
81 shall not enter into an examina,
tion of the causes which have COM
bined to depreciate the relative value
of silver and to appreciate the value
of gold since 1873, but am one OF
those who believe that they are tran
sient and temporary in their nature,
and that when they have passed away
or have been removed by the separate
or united actions of the nations most
deeply interested in the subject, the
old ratio of actual and relative value
will be re-established on firmer
foundation than ever.
81 know that the worlds stock of
precious metals is none too large. and
I see no reason to apprehend that it
will eyer become so.
mankind will be fortunate, indeed,
if the annual production of gold and
silver coin shall keep pace with the
annual increase of population, COM

HOKE SMITH DOWN AND OUT.
Interior Department Secretary Concludes
His Labors.


WASHINGTON, Sept. Secretary
Smith closed his administration of the
interior department today and retired
from, the cabinet. Today the secretary
devoted almost his entire time to TAX
ing leave of his associates and en-
ployes. When Ex-Governor Francis
will arrive from Missouri is not yet
definitely known; it is thought it will
be before the end of the week. Secre-
tary Smith will leave for Atlanta this
evening 'or tomorrow night, leaving
Assistant Secretary Reynolds in
charge. All important matters have
been disposed of, SO Francis will have
a clear field to begin with.
The record of the volume of wol k
performed during the past three and a
half years is probably ahead of any
period in the history of the depart
ment. Secretary Smith has enforced
the strictest civil service rules, making
merit the sole ground for promotion.
He unhesitatingly discharged his own
appoiltees if their work was not we'll
done, and the force of the department
all over the country has been brought
to high state of proficiency.

is now practically done up. This has

Washington, D. c., dispatch it would
appear that the courts of the national
capital are enforcing the rules rigidly.
The dispatch is dated Aug. 20, and
says; A young German was barred
citizenship today after a practical dem
onstration that Che could not read
the English language. Two Germans
applied to Judge Cole, of the district
supreme court, whose recent ruling in
the case of an Italian, that a knowledge
of the constitution is essential to citi-
zenship rights, created general inter-
est. Both Germans said they could
read English, aud we're given news
paper as test. One reached reading
requirements and was admitted to
citizenship, but the other made so poor

were refused, the court holding that
nc one is entitled to citizenship who

In another column is published in
full the report Of the special committee
OF the Commercial Club appointed by
that body to Investigate the condition
of affairs at Cascade Locks. From the
report 1t appears that the government
officials are at present acting in good
faith and purpose completing the work
so that the canal can be operated by
Nov. 18th. The engineer in charge
says nothing but unforeseen and un-
avoidable delays" will prevent the
completion at that date. Similar
promises, of course, have been made
in the past, but none so definite as
this, hence it would be i'll advised to
question Capt. Fisk's integrity at this
time. However should there be ap-
parent neglect in prosecuting the
work, his attention will be called
thereto. Although we have suffered
many disappointments in the past, let
US all hope the engineer is in earnest
now; at all events. let US not denounce
him until he has proven he has broken
faith with US, but rather, let US en-
