DEMOCRATIC WEAKNESS.

Ex-Secretary Whitney takes n gloomy view
Of Democratic prospects. BY referring to the
rupture In 1860, which shut the party ont Of
hope for about thirty years, he implies that
division equally fatal is now to be npprchcndcd
and he confesscs that he has little hope that
Southern or Western Democrats can be rea-
sOned or cOaxed ont OF their silver fanaticism
But if they cannot, 1t humiating mis-
take for New-York Democrats TO hold ont to
them the induccment Of retirement Of legal
tender notes, with its consequent great in
crease of silver coinage. The West and South
know perfectly we'll that If the Democratic
party gets power at all. it can only be by ALI
ance with POpulsts and silver men, who will
make il condition that the party shall 20
much further than the New York platform pro-
poses.
1t Is difficult to understand the assertion of
THE New-York Times that the Democratic
platform at Saratoga and the Republican mt
ST. Louis ARE In substance practically the
same" That journal should be able not wish
ing TO deceive its readers TO point out In the
Republican National platform any proposal 10
retire all egal-tender and Treasury notes with
out contraction Of the circulation, and then to
explain how this can by any possibility be done
except by coinage of silver aud issue Of silver
notes. No one is ignorant that the Democrats
in Congress have fatty refused TO authorize
an Issue OF bonds for any purpose nor can any
body be ignorant that most Of the Republicans
would refuse to authorize an issue of bonds for
the retirement Of the greenbacks If there is
any other way Of retiring legal tenders, except
by issue Of silver certificates, the Democratic
journals owe Ii TO their readers and 10 their
own reputation TO explain.
1t ought TO be plain to everybody that the
silver fanaticism can never be successfully
fought by preaching TO the extent Of half
column the virtue and necessity Of bmctalsm.
and then adding in dozen lines that until this
can be secured by assent of other nations the
gold standard must be maintained. The New
York Democrats resemble n jolly waterman
who looks one way and rows the other They
are not helping In the least to stop the silver
craze when they tell people that they will not
bolt but WIN stick to the party even II It does
make war on the Nations honor. The only
thing that seems In the least likely to check

imported, in comparison with corresponding
weeks for four years: ,

rh,c do,rooea &c not nroof that domestic IN
dus;ries generally are gaining, because the great
accumulation of foreign goods IN "d'ehous0'
show; that imports have far exceeded the ue
mand for such goods. but recent comparison Vi
prices indicates that cheap shoddy goods are
largely imported and these are greatly uhuer-
valued in the official statements, so that 10 just
idea can be formed of the quantities importer
from the weekly accounts. The volume Oh oo-
mcstic trade represented by clearinghouse re-
turns is % per cent less than In June last year
and only 10I per cent less than in June 1917
which is more favorable than the comparison for
April or for May.
The iron Industry is etill hesitatng. None OF
the combinations have yet reduced prices, ana
none have broken but it is now reported that the
price of coke will be Immediately reduced Bes-
semer pig is a shade lower, and the demand for
finished products Of iron and steel is in almost
every branch disappointing The Amaigamated
Association insists on higher wages for puddlers
and for tinplate workers. and 1t is supposed that
the usual summer stoppage will therefore be con-
slderably extended The boot and shoe factories
are doing better than any other great industry
and they shipped from the East in June only
about per cent less CAGES in number than last
year, when all previous years were surpassed
but the general preference for low-priced goods
continues. and renders the number Of cases an
unsafe indication Of the volume Of business at
present. Changes in price have not been i'm
portant but have b.en upward
Textile industries on the contrary. record but
few changes and those downward, and the most
active business for sc:3e weeks past has been
evoked by reductions OF price. Nor does reduc-
ton bring larger business in wOollens. though
there is a steadying of prices for wool and a
higher range of prices asked at the West owing
to hopes that the Republican policy will prevail.
Sales at the three chief markets have been in
four weeks - OJJ 800 pounds. Of which 5.349,o00

Although Weyler can do nothing with the
patriot armies. he retains sufficient military
potency TO fire out an occasional unarnei news
paper correspondent. and that seems about the
extent ~ his power. He has more reason I"
dread them than most military commanders, nav
ing a worse character and poorer abilities than
are common t. them; and telling the truth about
him has the effect OF libel II all the correspond
ents whom ne has extrided were massed In
squadron, they could kick his trocha full OF holes
IN a forenoon. and drive him into the Caribbean.

County Convention.

The Republican county convention
took place in Duluth Thursday of last
week. A good ticket was nominated
and one which Republicans of the
county need feel no hesitancy in sup
porting. The Duluth Herald of
course knows all about the deal by
which Fisher withdrew from the
race for sheriff. The delegates from
Ely who attended the convention
know about as much as anyone about
the occurance and just little more
than the Duluth Herald. There was
no selling out to or by anyone. The
following ticket was nominated:
Sheriff-W. G. Sargent.
