The Hilton Trophy.

1t was close shave for the Hilton
trophy and the rifle championship of the
United States that the District marksmen
had at Sea Girt yesterday, and probably no
great match was ever decided on such
narrow margin. But the intensity of the
competition makes the victory all the more
precious and the honor of retaining the
trophy the greater, for the Georgians
proved that they are of the first rank in
target shooting, and to defeat them was no
mean task The failure of the local
Guardsmen to retain the interstate regi-
mental championship is a reason for re-
greet, also their inability to break their own
worlds record in the Hilton match. But
The conditions for record-breaking were
lacking. The retention of the great Hilton
PLAGUE is honor enough for one year The
presence at s a Girt this year of a rival team
of such excellence as the Georgians will
surely stimulate the local sharpshooters to
more diligent practice than ever during the
coming winter and spring.

The Indianapolis convention has done its
work with strict regard for the purposes
declared, and in a manner challenging the
respect OF the country. Dignity and DELHI
Grafton marked the proceedings, and the
result Is a ticket well chosen and plat
form containing many sound declarations.
The Star may be pardoned for mentioning
the fact that the suggestion of the ticket of
Palmer and Buckner first appeared in these
columns 1t net with immediate favor in
the localities where the demand for third
ticket was strongest, and steps to insure
its realization were at once taken. General
Palmer, for personal reasons, was not in
clined to make the race, and this led to
speculation about others, but at no time
was any other name so popular with the
delegates as his. He accepts the nominal
ton. and will make a canvass. not likely
TO be confined to his own state of Illinois.
TIE Kentucky veteran is altogether a fit
yokemate for the Illinois veteran. The
union. indeed. is one of the most felicitous.
General Buckner is both a strong and
picturesque character. OF eminent ability
and infiexible purpose, and representing for
the business in hand the deepest earnest
DesS of sincere man, he will bring to the
ticket support which must prove of value
to the sound money cause in other states
besides his own. He, too. will take the
stump, and despite his seventy-three years,
will make the Blue Grass country a lively
place to live in for the next sixty days.
The states sought to De affected by this
ticket are Illinois, Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky.
West Virginia and Virginia, and it is well
constructed to find favor there General
Palmer has long been leader on his side
of Mason and Dixons line, as General
Buckner has been on his. They have dis
tinguished themselves in civil as well as in
military life. and each has received from
lis home people the highest evidences of
Popular confidence. Though opposed to
each other in war, they unite now for what
they cor slider the country's defense against
a great menace, and their canvass will be
conducted upon the most unselfiSh of
planes. They are striving for individual
reward. only in so far as leading a just
cause faithfully confers an honor upon
them With that they will be content.
Visions Of the White House are not daz-
Zling the eyes of the one, nor visions of the
presiding officers chair in the Senate cham
Der the eyes of the other. All they ask is
to SEE the country's credit maintained, and
TO feel that they have had share in the
good work.
The platform upon which these men stand
is d courageous expression of democratic
faith. The tariff plank and the financial
plank are what the sound money men
ineffectively fought for at Chicago, while
the planks referring to the civil service law,
arbitration. pensions, the Supreme Court
and the right and duty of the government
to preserve order, are so excellent as to be
beyond criticism

An IllustriOus Silver-BuE.

While Earl Ii is In Washington Senator
Stewart should not neglect the excellent
opportunity thus offered to make the &C
quaintance of the direct representative of
the greatest silver-standard nation on the
earth. Between the Chinese Viceroy and
the Nevada statesman there ought to be a
strong bond Of sympathy; strong enough to
bridge the chasm between America and the
Celestial empire; even strong enough, per-
haps, to overcome Senator Stewards
marked repugnance for potentates of all
sorts and all chimes For Ii Hung Chang,
shrewd statesman and thrifty financier that
he Is. stands to China's monetary system
today just as the silver plutocrats would
stand to the fiscal policy of the United
States in the event Of the free and I'M
limited coinage of silver at 10 to in this
country. 1t Is therefore somewhat unkind,
or perhaps only thoughtless, for Senator
Stewart to use In reference to the nations
guest and his own illuStrious fellow silver
bug such terms as the following, which he
made a part of his speech in Baltimore
last night in opening the silver campaign
in that city:
\Ch1na has gone through similar expert
ences of serfdom and extortion on the part
of its robber mandarins. One of them is in
this country today. Let the gold bugs
honor that monster who for half q century
mas governed province of thirty-five mil
lions OF people by unexampled cruelty on
the slightest signs of disturbance"

adoption in committee, and, afterward, in
the open convention. He denounced them
as populistic, and as unworthy of demo-
cratic support. But, In spite of him, the
platform was adopted, and Mr.. Bryan is
standing on it. The candidate declares that
he indorses everything in the platform.
This. of itself, will be embarrassing
enough to Mr.. Hill at Buffalo, but it will
rot by any means mark his only embar-
rassment. The Chicago platform will be
open to direct comparison with the plat
form which the national democrats put
forward at Indianapolis this week. That
platform. it is safely assumed, Is as accept
able to Mr.. Hill as the other is objection
able. 1t declares for sound money and
revenue tariff, and it does not contain a
single paragraph of populistic ancestry or
tendency. 1t has been put forward by a
convention composed of democrats. ard
claiming to be the real representatives Of
the party. Here, then, by tndorsing Mr..
Bryan. Mr.. Hill will virtually accept the
Chicago deliverance. which he has de-
nounced with vigor, and will reject the
Indianapolis deliverance. which expresses
to the full and in all sincerity the tenets of
his own political faith.
The Senator, it is seen. will have nothing
but the question Of regularity to stand on.
The Chicago platform is Objectionable. but
1t Is regular Mr.. Bryan. who stands ON
1T, and promises to assist in its execution
If elected. is not acceptable, but he IS regu-
lar. Mr.. Hill as the master Of the New
York machine exacts obedience to his
ders on the score of regularity, and hence,
for fear Of losing his power at home, may
himself in this matter feel compelled to
yield obedience.

This campaign is full of hirsute compli-
cations. The populists named two smooth
faced men as their presidential candidates
and thus gave serious blow to the belief
that long boards and queer beliefs to gov
eminent are coincidental if not logically
associated possessions. Now, to cap the
climax. the gold democrats. occupying the
absolute antipodes of the political globe
from the populists. have placed in the
presidential ring the only be-whiskered
men now standing for the sufrages Of the
people. Verify, these are revolutionary
times

Hills Dilemma.

Now that the belief is general that Sem
ator Hill will in some form declare at Buff
falo fer the Chicago nominees, the polti-
clans are discussing the matter with a.
good deal of interest. What form, they are
asking. will the endorsement take? How
will he manage to separate the ticket and
the platform?
The Chicago platform is thoroughly I'M
acceptable to Mr.. Hill. His objection is not
confined 10 one or two things. but extends
to every plank of any value or significance
in the whole pronunciamento. He fought
them all, one after another, before their
