Hildreth. the Young Train Wrecker, Com
pletely Broken Down.


1t was sad Fourth that young Hill.
dreth, the train wrecker, passed in Auburn
prison A visitor from Utica saw him dur
ing the oervcie in the chapel yesterday
morning There was a crowd in the WIS.,
itors' gallery when the great body OF pris-
oners entered and took their places. Those
who are under life sentence came last and
occupied places In the rear. There were 10
CT 12 of these, among them being the lad
whose trial at Rome is still fresh In tho
public mied. Never since he gained his
unhappy notoriety did he appear TO be
such a child. His companions for life were
big men, and in the same prison garb Hill
dreth, among them, looked pitifully small
and young. 1t was difficult to realize that
he was there for life.
Hildreth's spirit Is broken. His nerve is
gone. The buoyancy which carried him
through the last few exciting weeks which
be passed outside of Auburn vanished as "a
realization of his life approached. His
whole attitude shows that. He followed
the services with apparent interest. When
the congregation arose at the doxology, the
little prisoner bent and hung his head over
tho pew In front as though In fervent
prayer. That was q strange picture Of

A SILVER STANDARD"


relation to gold of to 80 as it does to-
day ana the Unite1 States Offering to
buy all the silver in the world and pay
a pound OF gold for only sixteen pounds
OF silver, about all the silver in the worlo
would como piling 10 the United States
mints and all tho gold would go out. 1t
would not take long for the govern nent
to get rid OF ail it's gold under these cir
cumstances and as it would still be open
to buy 1t would have to hire gold to pay
with.
Without considering the disaster that
would follow the insane proposition to
thus sell gold at one half it's market
price in silver-just as insane proposition
as 1t would for any business man to sell
goods for hfty cents that people were
ready and willing TO give him a dollar
for-let us try to find out where we
would be with nothing but silver in
the country outside the stockings and
tho pockets OF the silver mine owners.
As the expression is, the country
would DO on "silver standard" That
ues and prices. Real estate, stocks, gro
ceries, dry goods, LABOR and everything
else would be estimated according to
the value of silver.
Where would be the harm? What would
be the disadvantage OF having two "dol-
lars" where we now have one? What's
the matter with "cbeap money" so
long as we have quantity to make up
for lack OF quality7
Therein is tho great financial puzzler.
The currency sharps could write columns
about it and not make the matter clear to
anybody but other currency shnrps.
One thing ought to be plain, however,
ana that is that the spectators would
have a fine time with our money. Prices
OF the goods we need would fuctuate
faster than wages could be adjusted to
meet them. The first effect would clearly
be the scaling down of the purchasing
value of our "money" to the market
price Of silver. The next effect would
as surely be the raising OF prices OF the
goods we need to make up for the "short
money" And the prices would un-
doubtedly be raised high enough to
leave a safe margin to secure the sell
Ter. Labor would be the first to suffer in
the shaking up. It's wages would be Of
uncertain purchasing power and they
could never be made certain Il they were
re-adjusted every week because the stand
ard Of adjustment, silver, would fiuctuate
just as does the value of everything
else produced In the world. Business,
trade, commerce and manufactures
would be parslyzed for the simple reason
that business could not be done on an un-
certain money basis. There would be
"squeezes" and "corners" and no emo OF
speculation In silver. The money stand
ard of the nation would be the shuttle
cock OF Wall street. Money would be
made by the professional rpeculetors
but legitimate business would suffer from
the disturbance and tho wage-earner
would be the first and the last to suffer.
By reducing wages or the number of his
employees the manufacturer takes the first
step to protect himself against an uncer-
tain market. II the market proves in the
end to be a good one, the manufactures
is so much ahead by reason Of the re-
duction. And wages are not raised un-
til q correspondingIy profitable market
is assured.

The rank and nle OF the Democratic

ticket.
Leaders and prominent members OF the
Democratic organization may bolt. Lead
ers and prominent members will be left,
however, to lead tho Democratic army.
The rank and tllc, as body, will netur-
ally be disposed to vote the ticket straight.
They win accept the platform at Chicago
ms the utterance of their party. Whatever
the issues, that would naturally be their
action.
II is Just rs we'll not TO fool ourselves
that the disruption OF the Democratic
party in the East will follow the Chicago
declaration. After all, as viewed by the

laration was Democratic platform, the
candidates are Democratic candidates and
they are Democrats.

ANOTHER DEMOCRATIC TICKET.

A sound money Democratic ticket could
obviously never win in Noyem ber-not
this year.
A ticket could hardly have wen IL it
bad been possible 10 have secured it on
a sound money platform at Chicago-for
the plain reason that the people have
done with the Democratic idea of what
Democratic principles are as made evident
since March 4, 1888
But the nomination, as now suggested
in some lions, of second Democratic
ticket, based on sound money, could
never hope to win. 1t might help 10 de-
feat MCKINLEY ana eject BRYAN. 1t
might accomplish a contrary result. But
the votes OF Democrats for MCKINLEY will
the more surely accomplish the latter. II
the defeat of BRYAN is what is wanted,
10 vote for MCKINLEY, or not vote at all,
either Democratic plan will more surely
secure the object than voting for second
Democratic candidate.
The only hope for Democratic victory
in November lay in doing precisely what
was done at Chlcago-adopting free
silver platform and making a new ana
unworked issue.
All the other Democratic issues have
been worked out. The shreos were
valueless for campaign purposes.
Whatever we may think OF tho Chicago
platform. it represents the only possible
politics for the Democratic party this
year.
In 1850 when the Democrats held two
conventions and the northern party put
up STEPHEN a. DOUGLASS against
BRHcKENRIDaE, tho candidate of the
solid South, the "boltiug" Democrats
that is, the DOUGLASS Democrats, the
BREoKINRIDoE men being nominally the
boIters--seeured II electoral votes. The
solid South received ~ for their candi-
date, and BELL, representing a Repub-
lican compromise, had 32. ABRAHAM
LINCOLN, with $50 electoral votes, was
elected over all the opposition.
In 1872 section OF the Democracy
bolted the nom nation OF HORACE GREE
LEY and claimed TO be the straight"
Democratic party. But CT six ana a half
million votes cast for all candidates this
boiling ticket that claimed--as the sound
money Democrats would today claim-to
be "straight" Democratic ticket, only
secured about $500 votes and won no
electoral votes, nor did it affect the
election in any way.
Nothing but a partizan loyalty, strong
to the point of the ridiculous in senti-
mentality, can prompt the nomination OF a
second Democratic ticket this year.
More sensible would be the purpose OF
the Hon. RICHARD BUNcoNBE CoMsTocK
who is against the Chicago platform
and doesn't believe that the Chicago canoi.
dates can be elected, but he is going to
vote for BRYAN and SEwALL just the
same.

Two Get Torty-Year sentences.
ROME, y. Y, May Sat 1870 o'clock
this morning the jury I'm the case OF
John Watson HildTeth, one Of the boys
who wrecked the New York Central TX
press train, returned verdict Of murder
in the second degree. In reaching this
conclusion, four ballots were taken. The
court took recess until A. NJ. to-day,
when Judge McLennan sentenced Hii-
dreth to Aubura prison for life. In pass
ing sentence. the Judge said he thought
the Jury had dealt very lenlentiy by
Hudreth; they might have convicted nm
OF the highest crime known To law. he
said Hildrcth's crime was terrible one
under our civilization, almost as pad as
poisoning tho streams that came from tue
hilsides. Hildreth stood up and received
his sentence without hinching, but after
he sat down by the side of his father
his eyes filed with tears and ms mp
trembled perceptibly.
As soon as Hildrerh had been sentenced
he was taken back TO Jail and a few min
utes thereafter Theodore Hihbarl and
Herbert Plato, the other indicted train
wreckers. were brought into court. BY
advice Of their counsel Mr.. Sayics. they
withdrew their former pleas OF moi
guilty of murder In the first degree, and
pleaded guilty 10 manslaughter I'm the
first degree on each of the two indict-
ments against them, in causing the deaths
Of Engineer Hager and Robert Bond. Mr..
sayles asked for clemency for tho boys.
Judge McLennan then sentenced the
prisoners to forty years each in Auburn
State prison, twenty years on each i'm
dictment. rne prisoners were very pale
and seemed much downcast, but shed no
tears.
