The Death of 1-Governor Russell.

The entire country was shocked,
on Thursday, by the announcement
Of the sudden death of Ex-Governor
William Eustis Russell, of Massachu-
setts, while on tour for recreation
and rest from the cares of labor.
William L. Russell was remarkable
man, and a striking example of the
possibilities of American citizenship.
LESS than forty years of age, he had
already acquired tho distinction Of
being thrice elected Governor of his
State, as the candidate of political
party long in hopeless minority
within its borders. His bold, manly,
honest advocacy of the true principles
of the Democratic party, at time
when recreant leaders were lending
themselves to the work of drawing il
far away from its old landmarks. had
attracted the attention of the entire
country. and caused his name to be
mentioned with high favor as the
national leader of the party and its
candidate for President of tie United
| States.
10 these high honors Governor Rus,
sell added personality that endoared
him to the many who enjoyed the
| privilege of his friendship and init
mate association. He was genial, CON.
panionable and loyable. His friends
were his loyal adherents, at all times
In this State, whore family con
nections impaired to his character anc
career local interest, the news of his
death comes with the crushing force
of a personal sorrow. Nowhere, aside
from his immediate family, will tin
bereavement be more keenly felt thar
in Delaware.
When such a man as William z. Rus
sell, with a future so full of gloriou
possibilities and accomplishments, i
cut down suddenly in the fulness of
vigorous young manhood, it is al
occasion of sincere sorrow and dee,
regret wherever his name may b.
| known. ..5.

Senator German as a Historian,

Senator German of Maryland. in a
dispatch to the New York Morning
journal referring 10 the existing con
dition of affairs in the Democratic
party of the country. gave publicity to
the following remarkable bit of un-
known history:
As every one will remember, Con-
gress passed resolutions condemning
General jackson for his action at New
Orleans. Long after this resolution
was offered and passed 10 the Senate
ordering that black border be placed
around the resolution of condemnation
an it appeared in the journal of the
Senate. or course, this order was
carried out and the black border still
remains Judge Douglas made one Of
his great speeches in behalf OF tho
resolution ordering the border placed
in the journal and defended General
Jackson's course at New Orleans.
To everyone ordinarily familiar with
United States history, it was apparent
that Senator German was decidedly
mixed in this reference, aud the Balti-
more Sun took him sharply to task for
his blunder. Senator German evidently
got his memory confounded with the
incident of the adoption, by the United
States Senate, of resolution censur.
ing President jackson for his course
towards the United States Bank. He
removed Secretary of the Treasury
who refused TO take the government
deposits from this bank, and appointed
successor who did as the executive
directed This resolution of censure,
adopted in 1894, was repealed and ex-
plunged in 1887. after persistent efforts
by Senator Thomas ii. Benton of Mis-.
souri, And Douglas was not mem.
ber OF the Senate at that time.
Senator German, the Sun further
points out, was evidently thinking oi
the affair of General jackson, at the
time of the battle OF New Orleans,
being fined $1,000 by Judge in .hat
city, for refusing to obey the writ o
habeas corpus and virtually declaring
martial law. General jackson paiC
the fine and protected the judge agains
tne Indignation OF the people. in lSi.
many, many years after the occur
rence-Cangress passed a bill refundins
to the old hero the amount of the fine
which, with interest added, amounted
then to 81, TOO, and it was Mr.. Stephei
A. Douglas eloquent speech in favo
of this bill and justifying Genera
Jackson's refusal TO obey the order o
the court that won the admiration ant
gratitude of the old general.
Senator German should brush up hi
history studies. Still, there is som
excuse for hiH iudicrous lapse. For. a

Evil, of Free silver Coinage.

In letter to the New York Evening
Post, Mr.. John Moody of New York
writes most effectively of tho evils that
would follow in the train of free silver
coinage. First alluding to the claim
that the free coinage of silver will not
depreciate the dollar TO its old value
fifty three cents as measured in gold
to-day, he fails TO see wherein lies the
efficiency of free coinage at ALL how it
is going to rcmove the crown OF thorns
from off the laborer's brow, or save
mankind from its crucifixion on the
cross of gold; how it will raise the
price of grain and goods and give the
toiling masses richer and larger life,
and then he adds:
There are other things / do see, how
ever under free coinage. | see pluto
cracy triumphant; see a small class of
multi mi iIlionaires gluating in the midst
| of their ill-gotten wealth. They have
| silver crowns upon their heads, silver
, bracelets encirGle their wrists, and
they wear silver gird!es about their
! bellies, silver rings everywhere, except
| where they should be through their
| noses. | see, too, the crown of thorns
now pressed upon labor'a brow with
all its hideuuR pain; | see labor used
as catspaw to pull tine silver chest
nuts from the fire, though he has none
he can call his own. His savings and
his wages have been cut in twain; his
employment mayhap gone; he and his
| family starving. | see disaster. panic,
and stagnatiun from Maine to Cali
fornia; 800 industries languish, factor.
les idle millions out OF work. | sec
30 cent wheat, 5O-uent wages, and every.
thing that goes with such conditions.
Finally, ! SEQ the red flag, riot, revo.
luton; the silver plutocracy itself a
victim, and first Dantonism, then
despotism, triumphant.
These are truths which tho working.
men of the country would do we'll tc
ponder over. They need not expect tc
see the capitalist suffer by the condi.
tion Of affairs FREQ silver coinage would
bring about. The capitalist, in fact,
would be in position to make more
money out of the financial woes o.

The working people would be the
greatest sufferers by free coinage of sill

The sad death of ex- Governor Russell
of Massachusetts, recalls his brave and
manly address at the grave of Thomas
jefferson, at Monticsllo, only few
weeks aeo. On that occasion, he said !:
Free coinage OF silver or its compul-
sorry purchase, or any compromise legis-
lation by us in that direction, in my
Judgment, is distinctly class legisla-
tiou, which would unsettle business,
impair credit, reduce all savings and
the value OF all wages, and whose in
furious results no man can measure.
We are still ready, as we always have
been, to confer with other nations
upon any sound money system of inter
national biemetallism. / have nlisun-
derstood the teachings of Jefferson and
the traditions and principles of our
party il they do not support this view,
and sustain a Democratic administra
tion in its resolute enforcement of it.
With Jefferson truth mover lay in
compromise of principle, norfsuccess in
evasion of responsibility. Nor will
they with US, Let us leave compromise
and expodiency to the Republican
party, which is ever ieady to trim and
eyade, to harmonize its warning fac
tions. Let us, if need be, through
discussion and agitation, find tho truth,
bravely assert 1t, and trust our cause
to the conscience and patriotism of the
people.
There is inspiration for us in the
leadership of Jefferson and Cleveland.
1t nerves us to stand fast to principle,
TO put aside expediency and compro-
mise, and with courage and fidelity to
meet all pending issues. So shall we
merit and win success, and hold The
confidence OF the country as we have
in the past. We need not fear defeat.
We met in 'SS, and then went forth
united and strengthened to triumphant
victory. We should fear the discredit
of sacrificing principles to expediency,
or of turning aside from the safe course
which Jefferson established. Let our
good Democratic ship avoid tine passing
flaws which would drift her hither and
thither, content to wait the powerful
and steady gale which will carry the
nation upon her true course.
The wisdom of these words seems pro.
phetic, since the tongue that uttered
them Is now still in death. But they
should serve as warning, a guide,
and on inspiration to those who survive
him.

The platform adopted by the Addieks
Republican State convention at Dover,
Tuesday, was fearfuliy and wonder
fully constructed. II made demand
for pretty nearly everything, including
good roads, Good roads arc very de-
sirabIe, but there is suspicion that
this plank in the platform was dictated
by the reasonable fear that tho Repub-
licsns of Delaware will have to walk
after the November election.
Delaware gazette and state journal., 1896-07-23

The Dover authorities are evidently
determined to dignity the Single Tax
doctrine into an issue, by resolving to
prevent the holding of Single Tax
meetings in their town. They not only
do violence to the right of FREQ speech
by this course, but they encourage the
cause they seek to suppress. Tho meet

striction. II unopposed they would

1t is OF great Importance this year
to the Democrats of Delaware that they

SEQ the position in which Delaware

Here is good point made by the

yer dollar was dropped from the coin
age, with everybody's consent, the metal
in it was worth l03 cents, or three
cents more than the gold dollar. Who
then, would have taken silver bullion
to the mint to have it converted at a
loss into this coinage? What person
on earth could have been wronged by
emitting the coinage of the under,
valued silver dollar? BY melting down
the silver dollar in 1873 the metal in
it was worth 1o3 cents, By melting
down the silver dollar now the metal in
it is worth 53 cents. y
