own consclences and in the sight of their fellow-men, and having organized a real Democratic party, we hope that those who took part in this remarkable and inspiring convention, and those who are with them in feeling and in thought, will still further show their patriotism and unselfshness by voting for Mckinley.

 SILVER AND INS URaN CE.

How free silver would affect life in surance has not been more clearly and impressively set forth than 1t was by William T. Standen, actuary of the United States Life Insurance company, in an address before the convention of the National Association of Life Under writer's He pointed out that under the conditions which prevail to-day about $275, 900, ,OOO of annual income is sufficient to provide for the regular life insurance companies obligations of about 5,700, 100000. If the value of each dollar paid to the companies is to be scaled down to an effective purchasing power of about 52 cents, then, in order to main- tain their obligations at their present value in effective purchasing power, the companies would need to increase theil. annual income from s275,000000 to about $55O, 00O,000 Unable to do this by | reason of the nature of their contracts, l their obligations of about $5,700, 100000 will fall in effective purchasing power to about $2, 800, 000 900. One or the other will be an absolute necessity if they are 1 to maintain their present proud posi- ! tion of absolute, unquestionable and abundant solvency, and still yield the | same benefits they now confer on their | |, k, a dollar having an effective purchasing power of 100 cents for one dollars worth | pect to get the same benefits from the | payment of dollar that has an effec-
 tive purchasing power Of only 52 cents.
 The man who wants $25,O00 of life in-
 surance, and expects to pay for it in coin that is virtually subject to AS per cent. depreciation, will find that he can-
 not buy $250O0 of life insurance of the
 effective purchasing power of to-day,
 but only $13,OOO
 | It has been said that the free and un- l limited coinage of silver must inevita-
 bly, impair life-insurance contracts. | Not so, said MT. Standen Life -insur- ance contracts can and will be carried out to the strict letter. It is after the
 claims are paid and the life insurance l company's functions are strictly per- | formed that the trouble will come in. The man who, in his proyident fore
 thought intended to leave his family
 in the enjoyment of all those necessi- l ties, comforts and luxuries which an l annual income of $2,0O0 based upon | present conditions would secure to them may have insured his life for the
 sum of $50,000. When the money reach
 es the hands of his widow the prices of
 both necessities and luxuries will have
 so greatly enhanced that the income
 resulting from his prudence and fore
 thought will provide the wife and chil-
 dren with only about one-half of what he intended to, provide for them. The functions of the life insurance compa-
 nies themselves, except as to dividend benefits and the basis of premium pay
 ments. Its action will be to impair the present existing relation between assets
 and liabilities, and effect the derange-
 ment of these important factors whict
 it will be very hard subsequently 10 re-

AN JMPREsSiYE PROTEST.

The protest of Connecticut Democrats against dishonor and disloyalty was impressively made yesterday. The con- vention was a fine body, and we can pay it no better compliment than to say that both in appearance and in action it much resembled a Republican con- vention. Thomas M. Waller was at his best and that is very good indeed. Never has he shone more brightly than during this unusual campaign in which he has been steadily and strong ly ard brilliantly for honor and hon. esty His address yesterday deeply stirred those who heard 1t. And there was another stirring scene when Mir. A. E. Burr, whom Lynde Harrison called "the Nestor of the Democracy of Connecticut and whom MT Waller de- scribed as "the venerable bishop of the Democratic party" read the resolu- tions which demand "the honest pay ment of our debts and the sacred pres- ervation of the public faith" and that the gold standard of money shall be maintained.
 The nominations made are good ones, and the fitness of the nominee for governor to head such a movement was shown in his speech of acceptance, which was full of honesty and patriot ism. MT. Sperry does not recognize the right of any man to rob his neigh bor," and he condemns the attacl, made on the Supreme court in the Chicago convention.
 New Haven was we'll represented in the convention. Those who represent ed her and those who represented the other towns have, in maintaining their own self-respect, shown themselves en- titled to the respect of all good citi- zens, regardless of party. There may be some question about the political wisdom of the honest-money Demo- cratic movement in this State. There is no question about the soundness, the honor and the honesty of those who have been patriotic and unselfish enough to engage in it. They have set a shining example for the guidance and imitation of all good citizens who may hereafter find themselves in g similar situation.

in the Wardrobe


 Remember that plain colors will rule in winter dresses, and though you may combine your odds and ends in all col ors for a made-over dress, if you are buying new stuff, have it plain color 1t is an economic notion to get stuff for pretty new jaunty jacket of plain material that will go with the skirt or over the bloused bodice of one of the dresses you have on hand. This will rejuvenate that dress for month or so of wear. By that time you can decide on what you want in the way of a skirt, and then, while the jacket is still fresh, you can put a new skirt to it and parade the whole as new dress These little tricks are what keep a wardrobe in elastic condition. Such a jacket should be cut with iaunty bod ice suggestion, and not in reefer or

 Czar Nicholas has just signed an im- perial ukase decreeing that the colors of the national flag of Russia shall henceforth be white, blue and red, placed horizontally above one another, in the order named. The change, just at this time is somewhat significant, in view of the Czar's visit to Paris, where the French and Russian flags, now each of them tri-color, will be 1oated side by side. The pale blue flag with the cross of St. An drew is, however, to be retained for the navy, while the yellow flag with the black eagle will continue to be the spe- cial ensign of the Imperial House of Russia.
