OPINION OF JAMES G. BLAINE

As there are y. great many al
mirerS of the late James G.. Blaine
in Tazewell county who are at pres
ent engaged in calling Democrats
anarchists, 'S''PopuIiStS," and 9th
er pet names, we publish the fol
lowing showing opposition Occu
pied 10y their former idol: al believe
the struggle ROW going on i'm this
country and i'm other countries for
a single gold standard would, if
successful, produce widespread dis
aSter in and throughout tire com
mcrciel world. Yhe destruction of
silver as money, and establishing
gold rs :he sole unit OF value, must
have a ruinouS effect on all forms
of property except those invest
mentS which yield a fixed return
in money. Those would he enOr-
mOuSly enhanced in value and
would gain diSprOpOrtiuuate and
unfair advantage over every other
species of property. If, rs the
most reliable statistics affirm, there
are nearly 1000, 600, 900 of coin or
bullion in the world, very equally
divided between gold and silver.
it is impossible to strike silver out
Of existence Us money without re-
suits that will pro- distressing To
millions and utterly disastrous to
tens of thousands. | believe gold
and silver coin to he the money of
the constitution; indeed, the mon
cy of the American people anterior
TO the constitution, which the great
organic law recognized rs quite
independent of its own existence
No power was conferred on cOn9eSS
to declare either metal should not
be money. Congress has, there
fore, in my Judgment, no power to
dcmOnrtize either. If, therefore.
silver has been demOnctized, | am
IN favor of rcmOnctiZing it. If its

IN favor of ordering it te he reSum.

WASHINGTON, April i3,-Postmaster-
General Wilson has declared that the
Omitted States Ex-Slave Owners
Registration Bureau" of Washington,
d. c., to be In violation of tho postal
regulations and not entitled to the
privileges of the mails. This bureau
was but recently Incorporated under
the laws of the district and
the department made an investigation
of its methods of business. 1t was as
certained that three of the incorpora-
tors of the bureau gave Washington as
their residence. but none resided in
the district at the time of incorpora-
tion. They have just established
offices here but began do
ing business in sub-ofiice in
Savannah, Ga, several weeks ago, by
sending out literature. The plan of
the bureau was TO secure record OF
all persons holding slaves on January
1. 1868. Instructions and blanks were
sent out to ex-slave holders or
their heirs for them to state the
number of slaves owned and their
sex. These blanks were to be
filed out by ex-slave holders and re-
turned TO the bureau with fee of
from one to five dollars, the bureau
promising to have bills introduced in
congress looking to repayment for
slaves. The report of the post office
Inspector is that the scheme is fraud
pure and simple.

And 1t Was Examined at Police Head
asaftsrs After Being Soaked, and 1t
Was Found to Have Been
Dangerous Affair:

NEw YORK, April 1a-inspectot
Meakes, of the general post Office, went
to police headquarters and asked to
sec Commissioner Roosevelt. He said
that suspieious-looking package Rid
come through the mails Saturday night
for the commissioner. and he wished
to consult with him about it. Meakes
brought the package with him. As Mr..
Roosevelt had not come to headquar.
tersi the inspector saw Chief Conhn.
The supposed bomb was done up In red
paper and weighed five ounces. II IA
seven inches long and three inches
round. 1t was addressed Theodore
Roosevelt, police headquarters" and
was marked medicine" sxsa
Chief Conlin turned the supposed
bomb over to Capt. 0'Bricn and In Z.
strueted him TO soak It in pail of wa.
ter and see what was in 1t. The chief
regarded the thing as a hoax.
Capt. o Brien tore the wrapper care
fully off, and found metal tube six
inches long and about one and one-half
inches in diameter, with cap set over
one end. At the other end was glued
a piece of sandpaper, the heads OF ten
matches and some Roman candle fuse.
Capt. o'Brien would not venture 10
examine the thing any further before
he had soaked it well with water.
After the package had been we'll
soaked, Capt. 0'Brien and Roundsman
Sweeney opened 1t. II was found to
be of pasteboard and not metal as at
first supposed. Upon tearing II apart
the found inside what looked to be a
Roman candle. A long red fuse
led from the matches down in
side the round pasteboard box
and connected with the thing
which looked like Roman candle.
When this was broken open 1t was
found to contain black powder. The
fuse was genuine MS it went off when
match was applied to 1t and the pow
der also flashed up when touched with
a lighted match. As constructed the
thing would have exploded II 1t had
not been carefully opened.
President Roosevelt had not reached
headquarters up to noon. lie was at.
tending the funeral OF his cousin, DR..
James West Roosevelt, who died last
Friday.

New YORK., April 13.-Mr. and Mrs.
Balling,on Booth have made public
their reasons for refusing to return to
the Salvation army. Among other
statements is this:
"The generals visit was the primary
cause Of trouble between us and him
self From first to last he impressed
US with his dlspleasurc and dissatis-
faction with US personally and with
our method of administering affairs.
We lived in and understood this coun-
try. He exhibited prejudides and mis-
conception of II and II people. lie OBJ
jected TO the display of national flags
upon our badges and in our halls and
home
ale said that the time had arrived
to cease carrying the Stars and Stripes
at the head Of our paradcs. lie object
ed to the use Of the eagle upon our
crests, and constantly spoke depre
catingly of the country, its people aud
its institutions. Our constant defense
and explanation, in answer TO his at.
taclss, only increased the difficulty.
With our affection for and our knowl.
edge of America, this placed us in a
most unfortunate position. lie, ip con
sequence, showed but little interest
and sympathy with us personally. lie
spoke no word in public OF approval oI
our toll, zeal or success, and, in other
ways we need not mention, made the
visit one of the bitterest experiences o.
our lives"

Fraud and TrIckery Seems to Have Pre-
vailed Among tho Proud Dons.
MADRID, April l3.-AddNional re-
turns from Sundays elections for men,
bers of the cortes show that among
those elected are Senors Emilio Caste
lar and ri y Margall. The manipula-
tion of the polling and counting OF
votes in Madrid has resulted in the
election of five conservatives and three
liberals.
The marquis of Cabrinana, who re-
yealed the recent municipal scandals,
was badly defeated on the face of the
returns. The dishonest methods em-
ployed by the authorities in handling
the polling against the marquis
are apparent in the fact that
a great many more ballots are re-
turned than there were electors. The
populaee are ind ignant at the employ
ment of such tactics, and the author
tiles have taken precautions against an
outbreak. 1t is conceded on all sides
that the new parliament will be short
| lived.
