DOLLARS MUST BE EARNED.

Free Coinage Will Not Give the Working
man More Than He Has Now.
But just how the man who has no
silver to be coined is to be benefited has
not been made clear to us yet, and
believe it will do the country more good
to open our mines, mills and factories
to the unemployed than to open our
mints to the unrestricted coinage of sill
yer at the ratio Of 16 to l. That there
is not enough money in circulation may
be true, but if so it is because we have
been importing rather than exporting.
When it is asserted that our per capita
is not sufficient, it must not be forgotten
that labor itself is in no small share re-
sponsible for this state Of affairs, il in
deed it be true, or important if true.
From the city of Scranton alone Ia
boring men last year sent $4,000 in
gold, or its equivalent. to foreign lands,
and scarcely dollar Of it went to Eng
land. They sent this money to their
friends in the homes Of the poor Of Eu-
rope. Every dollar sent reduces the per
capita circulation of our currency. But
what of it? So much per capita is a
meaningless term. for it gives no man
dollar and adds nothing to the wealth
Of man or commonwealth. Per capita
circulation is a circulation which does
not circulate, and no man can lay fin
gers on dollar Of that per capita ex-
cept in one Of two ways-honest or dis
honest, by labor Of some kind or by
theft of some kind. II. V. Powderly.

The fight for principle. coupled with
no hope for the success OF their ticket,
has heretofore been confined TO that
'waged by our Prohibition friends. But
PALMER and BUoKNER are now In the
field for a campaign that offers no more
possibility OF success than the Pro-
hibilion ticket, though we guess they
will get bigger vote than the latter.
In 70 far as the sound money Democ-
racy and ita candidates are working with
devotion for something other than tam
gitle triumph, they are to he esteemed
for their self-sacrilice. But what is the
"principle" at stake?
The "principle" is nothing more or
less than 10 indicated by what is COM
monty spoken of as "the party organiza-
ton" 1t is the "principle' that Presi-
dnt CLEVELAND meant in his brief note
TO the indianapolis convention W hen he
whooped it up for the "glorious cid hag'
OF Democracy. The principle was express
sed at the PALMER and BUCKNER mass
meeting in New York Tuesday night.
The Supporters of the PALMER and BUCK
NER ticket do not expect personal VIC
tory for their candidates. That is very
good. 1t is unselfish. But ths 'prin-
ciple" 10 which they are seli-sacriiic-
ingly devoting themselves is, after nll,
nothing tnat the average American citi-
zen ought to care a tuppence about In
time of crisis like the present.
That the Democratic organization may
be preserved intact with the numerically
larger Bryauized part OF the political
body Topped of is the chief object Of the
PALMER and BucKSER supporterJ. Ad-
miracle as is the ticket the seuti-
meat that supports it is admirable only SO
far as 1t goes. And it doesn't go very far.
II seeks not SO much to save the country
from Bryanism as to rescue the Democrat
ic party from Hryanism. Whers 1t may
cast one good round vote against the Chi
cago declaration Ct reputation and an
archy it proposes to throw only half the
influence OF 1t, energy and conviction be-
cause, forsooth, 1t must first and fore
most, preserve the Democratic abracad-
abral
= Perhaps this sentiment is not folly. One
must maintain a respect for the seDti-
ments thst prompt the action of ones fell
lowmen. But wnen we hear our fellow
Democrat proclsin that the Chicago con-
ventlon preoipitlted a crisis we NUT
needs inquire whether it Is a crisis for t he
Democratic party or crisis for the coun-
try that he has in mind before we can
take the gauge Of his patriotism. "My
country Hrst" of course, cries the Dem
ocrat who has one hand for his country
and one for mis- party. "bu my party
just leetle ahead"

took occasion in answering his (Bry-
an's) speech to PROFOUND to him ques-
ton of the Pravest moment, and have
yet TO hear an answer TO it. The news
papers OF this country and even the
chairman Of his committee in an inter-
view dictated in this town declared that
the one question which hurt Mr.. Bry-
ans candidacy was the statement that
a debasement of the coinage would
necessarily work reduction in the rate
of wages paid the laborer. Now, ex-
pected in the address which he deliver
cd TO the labor organizations here last
Monday that this question would be
treated as one Of the most important
arising out of his canvass, and l chal-
lenge any man, Republican, Democrat
or Populist, TO show me one word In
which he undertook an explanation to
the laboring masses Of this country as
to the effect upon their condition OF the
debasement of the coinage which he ad-
vocates. And, my friends. tell you
now that he never will answer it, be-
cause he never can. -Bourke Cochran at

PAGES WITHOUT A SULKY
Wonderful Performance of Marion
Mills in Western Cities.
She Has LOwere ed the Record of Pacing
Mares and Needs No Driver to
Send Her Around the Track.

Oshkosh, Wis, oct. 20-A revolution
in pacing and trotting races is promised
il the scheme of George Atheafn, OF this
city, is carried out. He proposes to inter
est Il number of Western breeders and turf
men In an organization for the purpose of
offering prizes for races of trotting and
pacing horses that are 10 be run without
driver or sulky.
This astonishing novelty in horse racing
was brought about by the wonderful pac-
ing mare, Marion Mills, owned by Mr.. A tn
earn. Marion Mills PAGES over regular
race track and under regular rules with
out driver or sulky.
she is a wonder to all the TURTLES and
trainers OF the country, who have seen her.
II is not merely the fact that she 'goes
alone" that renders her marvel. Her
almost human intelligence and the hearty
thoroughness with which she enters into
the sport-for such it seems TO her are
factors on the wonderful impression She
makes ON bcholders.
Marion Mills Is handsome light bay;
stands a trifle over fifteen and one-haif
hands, and weighs $50 pounds. She was
sired by Harry Mills; she 10y Bradley Mil
waukec. and he by Hemhletor.an 10. Her
dam was Modesty, by Joe Bassett, sire of
the famous PAGER johnson, whose record
was 2:06 12.
She thus comes from fast strain Of
pacing stock. Before cssaying her pres
ent feat, Marion Mills had harness rec
ord of q 2i II. she was an exceedingly
nervous but knowing horse.
A few montls ago, after the opening or
the present season Mr.. Athearn conceived
tie idea Of having ncr go alone. He took
her to a race track in this city for TRIAL
and the first mile was Travelled in man
ncr which convinced her owner that his
purpose would not be an impossible ac-
complishment.
The exhibition is simpler in detail than
would be supposed by those who have not
witnessed 1t. There is no paccmaker, no
guiding, 10 whipping, no urging, no inter
ference or prompting OF the mare in any
way. She knows her lines and goes
through them without faltering and with
the utmost confidencein bcr own knowledge
and ability.
Marion's career as wonder, though
