HIGHER WAGES IF BRYAN WINS.

The following telegram from Newark.
o.. to the New York World. is one Of
those exhibitions OF business sense that
are good reading in this silly season OF
gold-bug predictions that free coinage
will hurt wages:
Newark. o., October SIT has been
many days since a factory notice
promising increased wages has been seen
IN this vicinity. but the employees OF the
Central City Stove-Works here to-day
were notified that In case OF Bryan's
election an increase OF 10 per cent. IL
their wages would be given.
The company's president. c. w. Gun
ningham, has been a lifelong Republi-
can. while the heaviest stakeholder, w.
n. Fulton. although banker. is an en-
thusiastic silverite. Nearly all the en-
ployees are Republicans. but all are
Bryan supporters.
President Cunningham said to-day that
the reason the promise of better wages
was made was that the company felt
confident that free coinage would stimu-
late business, especially In the West,
where the trade OF the concern largely
lies. He cited the fact that moulders
wages before sllver's demonetzation
were higher than they are to-day. AMI
pointed out hew all manufacturers OF
stoves voluntarily increased wages in 1879.

therefore conclude that * represents the
unknown and unheard-of person whom

ferson would never have consented TO
occupy any such position. He never
ran as a Democratic candidate TO spite
his party and aid his enemy. He never
depended for political victory upon the
influence Of great corporations He was
never afraid of the people. He was
Democrat. And so we conclude that the
Timcs's portrait Is not that Of the found

whom IT would introduce TO the public as
a suitable candidate for Congress, since

road and pass by Lamb to the right ara

A MAN OF DESTINY.

The world has usually found its men OF
destiny in military heroes. The man
worshippers OF whom Carlyle speaks are
mostly of the same description. But the
circumstances under which Mr.. Bryan
was nominated and has prosecuted his
campaign may indicate that hero Of
another kind is In sight There is some
thing In Mr. Bryan's Enettle and manner
os well as his looks. which marks him as
no ordinary man. He Is innocent Of any
knowledge that he is superior to his
neighbors, and trusts his cause to the
people themselves. These facts ought to
be pondered by the Republicans as well
as BY the Democrats when they under

results of the elections which are to take
place on the Cd of November.

THEORY Xs. PRACTICE.

We take the following from the Times
report of ex-President Harrison's speech
Monday night:
But they say that silver will appreciate

preston that the sons OF the prophets

Mr.. Harrison is advocating for President
Major William Mckinley. Of Canton, o.,
a gentleman who. II he were elected, and
with a veto in his hand. would be the last
court of resort on congressional financial
legislation. He ought. we infer from Mr..

GOVERNMENT by INJUNCTION.

The Richmond boilers who were driven
into disloyalty to their party and into
championing Federal judicial usurpation
by the plank in the Chicago platform
against government by injunction. are
threatened with taste of government OF
that sort right at their own doors. With
out expressing an opinion on the merits
of the Bell Telephone case. in which
Federal-Judge Con- has just granted an
injunction. we would say that the pro-
ceeding affords food for serious thought.
1T suggests the question, Whittier are We
drifting?
Some years ago. in this city. a mall
who, while in a boat in Shockoe creek
during a freshet was hit over the head
with q pop-bottle by a companion. en-
deavored to get the United States Court
TO take jurisdiction OF the case under the
admiralty laws. His plea was that the
assault was committed on the high seas.
The Court refused to take cognizancc
although on technical grounds it had as
much right to 90 so as the Federal courts
had in some OF the cases we could men-
ton in which they have acted, seeing
that the ,Shockoe-creek affair unqUestion-
ably involved a half-seas over IL not a
high-seas assault. II. however, by the at
titude and the arguments of the Republic
cans and their boiling allies the Federal
Judges are encouraged in their latitude
nous injunction business, how long will it
be before they will take jurisdiction in
cases practically as trivial as the one
above cited? Indeed, how long will IL be
before States and municipalities will have
no rights that the Federal courts will
be bound 10 respect? How long will 1t
be before there will be no use for State
courts?
There may be no question that Federal
court Is the proper tribunal in which to
determine the issues involved in the Eel
Telephone case. On that point we are not
competent 10 give an opinion. But the
case ought to serve a good purpose by
setting the people 10 thinking on Federal
niunctions generally. Taken in connection
With some other recent Federal injrnc-
,ions-nctably that In the Seaboacd Air
lane case--it ought to induce every dis
affected Democrat in Virginia to study

THE TUNE CHANGED.

The daily circular of Messrs. Price &
Whitley, stock brokers. in New York.
which is received by their patrons N
Richmond. has persistently held that Nc
Kinley would certainly be elected. In
their circular of october 9TH. received here
yesterday, they have a change of tune.
They now say:
while we believe Mckinley Is going 10
be elected, we find that there is ren-
dency among some OF the best people 10
be very conservative until the election
has actually taken place, and perhaps
discretion may prove the better part of
valor.''
The cold chill that has come over the
Republican National Committee in New
York. caused by the ugly news from
Ohio. Indiana. and Illinois. has doubtless
brought about the conclusion that dis
erection may prove the better part of
valor."
