Neither silver nor gold to the

silver and gold.under such restric-
tions and declarations as will IN
sure the use OF each without the
depreciation Of either, this appears
to be the sentiment OF the Egreat
body OF the delegates.at st. Louis,
and this will very largely suit the
country. That is what will knock
the stuffiug out Of the free silver

One by one as the various dele
cations formulate their views on
currency and submit them to the
national committee for comparf.
son, it is found that the vast
majority Of these opinions are in
favor Of the present money of the
country, gold, silver and paper
and that they are not favorable to
any change, save in such legisla'
ton as will more clearly define
the attitude Of the government to
these several kinds of money. The
credit of the country is the thing
sought. 1t is a good thing for the
convention to look to. That credit
Is the thing to be preserved al
home as we'll as abroad, and II
preserving it the general concensu'
Of commercial and Industrial opin
ion should be regarded.

England seems to understand
that the civilized world will not
accept complaisantly a verdict OF
acquital in the cases of these revo-
lutionists who attempted to sub.
vert the liberties of the Transvaal.
There will be found in England
also lovers of national honor and
consistency who will demand a
strict and impartial trial Of Jami-
son and his fellows and q verdict
in accordance with facts. 1t mat
tiers not how near the imperial
cabinet the chips fall there must
be close hewing to the line.

Fairbanks, of Indiana, in his
opening speech, as temporary
chairman, has hit the nail on the
head, in putting the stress on
tariff and reciprocity, and rot on
currency. His arraignment of the
democratic policy in destroying
our credit by breaking down our
revenues is directly in point. 1t
is this destruction OF revenue that
has killed US abroad and not the
character of our money issues.

There seems to be nothing out
side OF the, st. Louis convention to
command the attention of the
country. Even the rapes and out
RACES of the Territory attract little
notice from the press and wilful
murder falls very dead. When
elections for president come only
once in a decade there will not be
so much grumbling at taking a
few months off the year for the
agitation of political contests.

Tom Platt is flying around the
purlieus of ST. Louis, fitting from

they want Wall street plank in
