"srLvER AND PRoTECrlON.'

The business men OF the East are ut
last beginning to realize the evil effects
of the single gold standard. The manu-
fsoturers especially are beginning to see
that the arguments made by the friends
Of silver are founded on facts and those
facts are now being expressed and in
dorsed by numbers Of business men Of
the Eastern States who up till quite re.
Gently could see nothing good in bimet-
allism but had no trouble in observing
in il everything that was vicious. That
the question Of bimetalfism against gold
monomstallism will be taken into the
next Republican National Convention, 10
now appears certain. In Philadelphia,
according TO . Washington dispatch, .
large number Of manufacturer Of the
Quaker City, headed by James Dobson,
have embraced silver and protection
ideas, and have notified the Republican
leaders that unless silver is recognized 81
the 81. Louis Convention they will never
support the Republican ticket nor con-
tribute anything TO the campaign fund.
Mr.. Dobson was President Of the Manu-
factursrs' Club Of Philadelphia for years,
and, il 10 said, 10 have contributed and
secured contributions of hundreds Of
thousands Of dollars to Republican oam-
paign funds in the past. Herber Clark,
editor Of several papers devoted to man.
ufacturing interests and Secretary of the
Manufacturer Club, has been preaching
free silver In his papers for some time.
II is said that q majority Of the manu-
factursrs Of Philadelphia have decided
chat free silver, owing to the enoroach.
msnts Of Oriental countries, is the best
for them, 90 much the best, in fact, that
they will support . new party If the old
parties do mot give the white metal due
consideration. A delegation Of fifty or
sixty Philadelphis manufacturers, headed
by Mr.. Dobson, 10 booked 10 come TO

H'ehts IN ln0lana's political can

some things amusing. Forinstance
the late Republican convention a
Indianapolis was as silent as a clam
on State affairs-not even alludinp
TO them. Was it afraid to indorse
the apportionment litigation. the
Nicholson bill, the convict return
bill, the Congressional gerryman
der, the attempted murder Of the
Governors private secretary? II
Is certainly an anomaly for a Re-
publican convention to nominate
State officers for Indiana to saw
nothing in regard to State affairs.
The Dubois County funny part of
It comes up in each issue Of one Of
the Republican local papers, irving
to create schism in the Demo-
cratic ranks, il possible, SO as to
admit OF the election OF one Re-
publican officer. It was also funny
70 see that paper come out strongly
editorially for Traylor for Judge one
week, and the next week lust as
strongly for Ely. Was it "sosped?n
And did one eide bid more than the
other?
Another funny sight was to see
the liquor element in the late Re-
publican county convention support
a. candidate for nomination for
Representative from Dubois
Orange and Lawrence counties the
Prohibition candidate for Congress
in this district in 1894, because
Stewart voted for the Nicholson bill |
IN the last Legislature. Did the Re-
publican delegates who voted for
Mr.. Cooper think prohibition was
preferable TO the Nicholson bill?
Well, they may have their wishes
gratified II the Republicans should
