Win the same sleeplesS vigilance.
Not content with the Inauguration of
the ruinous policy which has brought
down the wages of the laborer and the
price of farm products, its advocates now
offer a new policy which will diminish
the value of the money in which wages
and prices are paid.
Our trouble is not with the character
of the money that we have, but with the
threat to debase it. We have the same
currency that we had in 1892, good
the world over, and unquestioned by any
people. Then, too, we had unexampled
credit and prosperity.
The platform adopted by the Repub-
lican National Convention has received
my careful consideration, and has my un-
quallned approval. IT is matter of
qualification to me, as l am sure it must
be to you and Republicans every
where and to all our people, that the ex-
pressions of its declaration of principles
are so direct, clear and emphatic. They
are too plain and positive to leave any
chance for doubt or question as to their
purport and meaning.
The employment of the idle money we
already have, in gainful pursuits, will
put every idle man in the country at
work, and when there is work there is
wages, anu Wheh therc hfe work and
wages there are consumers who consti-
tute the best market for the products of
our soil.
The money of the United States, and
every kind and form of ii, whether of
paper, silver or gold, must be as good
as the best in the world. 1t must not
only be current at its full face value
at home, but it must be counted at par
in any and every commercial center of
the globe.

ing power to the dollar paid to any gov
ernment creditor.
"The contest this year will not he
waged upon lines of theory and specua-
ton, but in the light of severe practical
experience and new and dearly nc
quired knowledge. The great body of
our citizens know what they want, and
that they intend to have. They know
for what the Republican party stands,
and what its return TO power means to
them. They realize that the Republican
party believes that our work should be
done at home and not abroad, and cv-
crywherc proclaim their devotion to the
principles of a protective tariff, which,
while supplying adequate revenues for
the government, will restore American
production and serve the best interests
of American labor and development.

marching music of Reeves Band. The
Grand army veterans and the sons OF
Veterans participated in these scenes as
also in the one that came between. the
"night before the Battle of Aptietam. :"
when there was band playing and sing
ing by the Glover Quarter and some
highly original dancing by a colored
gentleman named Charles Scott, who re-
ceived the enthusiastic piaudits of the
spectators for the way he "shook 1t
down" At the last curtain the troops
were marshaled behind the band and the
whole house, on and of the stage, stood
up and sang "America."
For an opening the production went
of with amazing smoothness. The boys
In camp lost their voices for few minutes
while singing "Tenting on the Old Camp
Ground" but Miss Eager, from the
wings, put their trolley on for them and
they sang finely then. In no important
particular was there hitch, and the
waits between curtains were far shorter
than might have been expected.
The diversity of the tableaux, scenes
and dances Is an attractive feature OF the
production, though all alike make beau
tiful stage pictures. The "Rocham beau
Ball" scene furnished about the most
magnificent ensemble OF good-look ing
