favors international bimetalEsm,
and until that can be established
upon secure basis opposes the COIN
age of silver except upon government
account and demands the mainten-
ance of the existing gold standard of
value"
That is sound plank, and, as
Senator Quay has remarked is good
enough for the national platform.
AS to the candidates who entered
into competition with Maj. Nc
Klnley for the nomiation, it hard
ly need be said that they will give
him their cordial support. AS
Republicans Of prominence it was
their right and laudable ambition to
aspire to the nomination, equivalent
this year to election. 1t was their
right as it was that of Maj. McKin
ley, to seek the support of their
respective States and to go into the
national convention with this State
support solidly behind them.
Neither Maj. Mckinley nor any
body authorized to speak for him
has discredited this right. Only
local bosses seeking to hide them
selves behind McKinley's candi-
dacy, have sought to indulge in
that sort of belittlement.
There is now no room to doubt
that the winner will be Maj. Nc
Kinley and he will be Loyalty sup

A Divided Democracy.

Very interesting things are going
on in the Democratic party. De-
velopments in Illinois Will serve to
illustrate. There the free silver
men have captured the Democratic
organization and will go to the
Democratic national convention
determined to have 16 TO 1 or bolt.
The Cleveland administration men
exhausted every effort to stay the
tide, and all to no purpose.
Seeing at last the hopelessness Of
the struggle sound money Demo-
cats declined to take any part in the
primaries in Cook county. Be-
ginning with that county as basis
they will have an organization Of
their own as separate and distinct
from the Altgeld free silver organi-
cation as the Republican organi-
cation IS.
The sound money men will de-
mand admission to the national con-
vention. If not admitted they will
90 ahead on their own line. If ad-
mitted the free silver men will 60
home and go into business for
themselves. Illinois is merely an
example of what may be expected
after the Chicago convention.
Hardly anything can be more
certain than that there will be two
Democratic national tickets in the
field, one for sound money and one
for the sham silver dollar. The
Republican party does not need this
able assistance this year, but fate
seems to be on its side.
True there may be a free silver
bolt.
True there may be q free silver
bolt from the st. Louis convention
but it will not amount to hill of
beans. The boilers will not rep
resent enough electoral votes to
make their movement respectable.

editorial quotes Senator Quay as
conceding the nomination to Major
Mckinley. 1t says; "Senator
Quay gave out q statement last
night in which 479 of the delega-

yention are accorded to Maj. Nc
Kinley on the first ballot. This
estimate which does take into con-
sideration the delegates favorable to
him as their second choice, gives him
ninteen votes more than the requis

for the Major conceded by Senator
Quay it will occasion no surprise if
the other candidates decide not to
go before the convention.
