The very best ''protectioB" we can
possibly have at the present time is
the complete restoration of silver. So
long as we must sell our wheat and
cotton and petroleum and many other
things in the European market on a
free trade silver basis, in competition
with the silver-using countries, those
staples are bound to be cheap, and the
producers of such things cannot afford
to pay higher prices for manufactured
goods. Restore silver and the price OF
it will rise in the European market
As silver rises SO must those things

perity to the agriculturist particularly,

prices, and thus the benefits will

A CONTRAST.

But One That Smacks Considerably Of
Irony-GO1d-BuG Decency.
It is always a relief to turn from the
red-hot silver papers to the cool, placid
and philosophical gold-bug press On
the one hand we have the torrid zone,
with its passion of color and its fervor
of sound; and on the other the blissful
repose, the dreamy ease and the dolce
far niente of Philadelphia. It is like
escaping from St Louis to the Land of
Pure Delight.
Take up a silver paper. and you will
find rude language, offensive epitket
and coarse abuse; but in the columns
of the gold journal all is civilization,
Delsarte, refinement, Boston baked
culture and wisdom. Here. for in
stance, is our afternoon mocIxing bird
that fills the twilight hour with soft
and soothing music. Its delight is to
refer to those who differ with it on the
financial question as ''rotten money"
people and advocates of the dishonest
dollar. This, you see, is argument, re-
fection and philosophical meditation.
Then the Chicago Chronicle presents
another instance of beautiful serenity
whenever the financial question is on.
Free silver, in the vocabulary OF the
Chronicle, is the licensing of whole
sale reputation and rascality." and is
'tsure to go the way of its scoundrelly
predecessor, greenbaccism.
What a pity it is that we cannot
always dwell in such an atmosphere of
heavenly calm, where the reason is fed
with lofty argument and where chaste
and classical eDithek is the rulei What
a contrast does the gentle gold-bug

CINCINNATI, July 2.-Harriet Beech
er's childhood and a portion of her
womanhood were spent here. It was
in Cincinnati that she met and mar
ried Prof Calvin E. Stowe. She was
the daughter of Lyman Beecher,
who came to Cincinnati to take
charge of Lane seminary. Harriet
was then a young girl. The home
of the Beechers is still standing.

Portable two-story brick structure, on

WHAT m MEANS.


Free Coinage of silver Would Make the
Country Prosperous.
The free and unlimited coinage OF
silver means that neither the president
nor his secretary of the treasury
would be allowed any longer to boy
cott the 4es. 600. 900 of standard silver
dollars now in existence. The power
that could re-establish silver coinage
would compel the use of silver with
gold in the redemption of greenbacks-
This would do away with the false pre-
tense that bonds must be sold with
which to buy gold to redeem green
backs. It would remove the constant
menace by the gold gang that the le-
gal tender quality shall be taken
away from the vast amount of silver
dollars now in existence. 1t would
add enough to the money in circula-
tion in the country each year to keep
pace with the increase of population
and the requirements of domestic ex-
changes 1t would make all the silver
bullion in the world worth just rs
much as though it were already coined
into dollars. 1t would stop green
backs from being presented for re-
demption at the treasury, because
the rest of the breed of gold
speculators would be offered
silver when they demanded gold, and
they would not want it. Free coinage
would guarantee the stability of the
currency. The grinding contraction
now going on would cease. The bor-
rowed surplus in the treasury of near
ly 500, 600. 900 would be expended in
grand pu blic improvements, including
coast defenses, and thus be restored to
circulation among the people IL
would gradually raise the general
level of prices. The production of
wheat and other farm products would
be resumed on the former scale. Man
ufacturers of every description would
no longer engage in mere hand-to-
mouth production, but would manu-
facture for the requirements of the
coming year. This would give work
to those now in distress, and would
enable laboring people themselves to
buy what they do now without going
under the harsh compulsion of pow
erty. The commerce between As states
would be resumed; railroads would be
taken out of the hands of receivers,
because they could again earn interest
on their debts and expenses, and
something more. Free coinage would
stop the borrowing of money in times
of peace for the purpose of obtaining
gold with which to pay obligations not
payable in gold.
In brief, free coinage would mean a
back seat for syndicates and their of
fetal instruments-a back seat for the
bears of the New York stock market,
and for the pawnb-okers throughout
the country. It would mean that
money would be more profitab BILE when
invested in business enterprises than
when laid away in a napkin to breed
upon itself. It would mean fair play
among men, and only 100 cents on the
dollar in the payment of debts.
And free coinage is coming unless
bribery and corruption are stronger in
the land than the honest expression of
the peoples will Enquirer.

A BanIshed Newspaper Artist Gives al
Inside View of Cuban Affairs.
NEW YORK, July Thomas r.
Dawley, Jr., an artist from Harper
Bros, sent to Cuba some five months
ago, arrived here this morning on the
steamer Orizaba. Mr.. Dawley, when
seen by United Press reporter said
that the situation in Cuba was the
same when he left that it had been for
the past six weeks. The insurgents
still occupied a large portion of the
island and seem to be equal in
strength to any of the Spanish
troops yet sent there. The real war
seems to be between Gen. Weyler and
the newspaper correspondents on the
island. said Mr.. Dawley. He described
Morro castle as being worse than any
prison he had ever seen. He claims
that force sent against any of Gen.
Weyler's troops with a few dollars
worth of fireworks would capture any
fort in their possession, as the Span
iards are the greatest lot of towards
ever sent on field of battle. AS is
stands at the present time, it looks as
though neither of the forces are anx-
ious to fight a decisive battle. The
Cubans seem to be waiting in hopes
of some favorable action on the part
of the United States.
The battles which the Spaniards re-
port as having taken place between
Spanish troops and insurgents are
nothing more than attacks by the
troops upon defenseless farmers,
which are afterward reported as vic
torious engagements with the insur.
gents.
Mr.. Dawley says that the insurgents
have food, clothing and ammunition
enough to last them year, and from
present indications the Spanish will
never again have entire control of the
