No Excuse.

The platform adopted by the
Republican national convention
furnishes no true Republican with
an excuse for boiling the party.
The declarations made therein arc
substantially the same as those in
tho platform of 1892. 1t declares
for tariff for the protection Of
American labor as we'll as for rev.
cnuc. This is one of the party S
fundamental principles; principle
it has defended in each and every
campaign since the party's founda-
ton; a principle which has been
vindicated by the events of the past
four years, brought about by the
party which has ever heretofore
made its cause against a tariff for
protection and was givcn the OPP
portunity to demonstrate the doc
trinc of tariff reform. No Rcpub-
lican has an excuse here to bolt
the party.
The declaration OH the financial
question is also in line with the
past policy of the party on that
important point. In upholding the
present gold standard the party
simply says that it is in favor OF
keeping both silver and gold Oh
par with each other in the futur,
as they have been in the past. Tho
! party Is not now, nor has ii ever
been, opposed to the Use of silver
as money, as the fact that the pro
portions between silver and go!o
in circulation in the United State,
at present are nearly equally bal
anced, proves. The new platform
declares against the unlimited coin
age Of silver at ratio of Is to
unless internationally agreed upon
as Il check upon silver monomctal

MANY people express surprise
over the rapid spread of the free
silver craze. The spread Of Cox
eyism a few years ago was Just as
rapid and occasioned the same sur
prise. Free-silver is nothing but
Coxeyism under a new name, and
it will die out as quickly under its
present guisc as it did under the
old, when it is once thoroughly un-
dcrstood.

THE recurring deficits in tn

The recurring deficits in the ma
tional treasury is causing the Dem
ocrats whole lot of trouble, but
they try to ignore the responsible
ty therefor and say the deficiencies
are still due to Republican laws.
Previous to 1892 they maintained
that the same laws were robbing
the people to lay up an immense
and idle surplus in the treasury.
They must be peculiar laws to have
such opposite effects.

The old moss-back Democrat
who has prided himself on his strict
adherence to the old Jctfersonian

gencracy Of the Democratic party

of the ticket and ask him to vote it.

The bolt at Chicago was bigger
than the bolt at St. Louis. One
hundred and sixty delegates at
Chicago refused to participate in
the nomination of candidate on a
free silver platform. These dele
gates, who represent the true Dem
ocracy, felt that they could not
subscribe to the frce-silver lunacy
Of the majority.

The Democratic Candidate.
rom THE GLOBE DEMOCRAT.

FROM THE GLOBE DEMOCRAT.
In rejecting Bland and accepting
Bryan the Democratic party did
not take intelligent advantage of
its opportunity. There is a strong
possibility that Bryan will get votes
in the Eastern States that Bland
could not obtain, because Bryan is
less completely and less conspicu
ously identified with the free silver
cause. This, however, is an ele-
ment of weakness in Bryan, for
the very consideration which makes
him less Objectionable to the gold
faction of his party will render
him less acceptible to the silver
faction. No reasonable being looks
for any Democratic electoral votes
in any State near the Atlantic
coast from West Virginia to Maine.
The only doubt in sane Demo,
Gratis minds is whether. for instance,
Mckinley's plurality in New York
will be 100000 or only 80, 900 or
1000.
The battle ground of the cam
paign will be in the Western States,
and here, we believe, Bryan will
be materially weaker than Bland
would have been. There was some
thing more than cant in the ex-
preston by Democrats and Repub-
licans in the last few weeks that
Bland would be the illogical candi-
date" of the silver party. Every
thing which gives any sort of digni-
ty or strength to the silver dclusion
is typiticd in Bland. He was at
once the Peter the Hermit and
the Richard of the Lion Heart of
the silver crllsade-its earliest lead
er and brave>t and most chivalrouS
fighter. Bland is narrow and fana-
teal, as all men are who champion
a bad cause and us some are even
who head a good one, bat in com
parison with his sincerity and
character what sordid and vulgar
lot are the Stewards, Joneses.
Bryans, Altgclds, Tillmans, and all
other silver leaders with the cxccp-
ton of Teller.
There is a chance. Of course, that
the Populists will indorsc Bryan.
He is more of a Populist than he
is a Democrat, as his wildness anc
loosencss of talk on other than sill
yer prove. But the third part,
support will hurt him as much a:
it will help him. 1t will widen tn.

1t is not generally known. even in

Of pounds IN gold are annually taken
from the rude heaps of base-looking
quartz by the flowing of water over
huge piles of broken rocks that con-
tain the precious metal. The water
used by the miners is charged with a
simple chemical which has the potency
TO dissolve gold and hold IL IN solution.
This is cyanide Of potassium, poison

particles of the metal. During the

ered.-St Louis Republic.
