WHEN THE wise democrats who
didn't believe that the color of the cur
rency would really affect the welfare
of the country one way or another, but
who were confident that the people
were determined to put that question
to decisive test, advised their party to
abide by the action Of the national
democratic convention last fall, so that
the test could be made at once and the
uncertainty respecting it be removed,
the boilers said it would be better to
desert their party and elect high
tariff republican President, and that
that would effectually settle the silver
question. The result of this weeks
elections in Northern and Western
States has taught them now, when too
late, that there will be four years more
of the uncertainty about the currency
question and induces them to fear four
years more of the business depression
that is almost the necessary conse-
quence of uncertainty.
