cratic party than the other one. How
ever that may be, the New York Evening
Post need not hug itself with the fond
delusion that any seat now occupied in
opposition to the oppression of the peo-
pie will be otherwise occupied after the
Legislative elections of 1893.
The seat of Mr.. German may be filled
by himself; more certainly If he should
get back to his straight Democratic
mooriDgs. The seat of the New Jersey
Senator is likely to be occupied by him
self or anothe- equally as good" not
withstanding the fact that the State has
elected n very decent man, in the person
of Republican Vice President; and
finally the State of Indiana shows signs
of rising to the plane of the situation and
will be more difficult to buy in 1898, and
still more costly to purchase lin 1900,
than it was in 1896.
Altogether the cause of --bimetallism
and the people has little to fear from
changes in the Senate between now and
the next Presidential election. 1t should
be remarked, however, that the same
thing was thought when the extra ses-
sion was called. Then the people had
absolute confidence in the..sbility and de-
termination of their champions-to defeat
a tariff bill unless it should carry with
it bmetallic amendment. They were
fooled that time. Possibly the personnel
of the Senate may change, but it will not
be in the direction of gold contraction.

a means of endowment for public instl-
tutions ON which interest would be regu
larly paid as long as the life of the nation
endured. In the absence of such securi-
ties those who leave endowments by will
and testament will be compelled to take
risks, for there are few stocks or proper
ties that are beyond the reach of disaster
and consequent depreciation. The mel
archoly history OF Lehigh and Johns Hop

When the State convention assemblies

Who that member will be cannot yet be
determined. but JAS. p Woods, of this

suitable person for the position and he
will beyond doubt have the entire support
of the Roanoke delegation. Mr.. Woods
is in every respect worthy of the trust

expected TO shoulder the responsibilities
imposed, and in every way make most
efficient and painstaking member of the

COMING SENATORS.

The New York Evening Post discusses
the Republican necessity for capturing
the United States Senate. There is no
doubt that, from IL Republican stand
point, the necessity is a great and immi-
nent one. But the Evening Post is in.
clined to father it's wish upon it's thought.
The Evening Post observes that one third
of the Senate will be subject to change in
1899. There are thirty Senators to be
elected then. 1t thinks that, in addition
to the seats now held by the trusts and
monoples, they have chance to gain n
seat from Maryland in place of Mr.. Cor
man; one in place of Mr. Mitchell of Wis
consin; another in place of Mr.. Roach of
North Dakota, and still another in place
of Mr.. Faulkner of Vest Virginia In
addition to all these it is deemed posi-
BILE, by people who are 'unnformed as to
the facts, to secure Republican Senator's
in the stead of Mr. Smith of New Jersey
and Mr.. Turpie of Indiana.
This prognosis is both puerile and
paresic. We are not sure that the Dem
ocratic party or the cause of the peorl lie
would be promoted by the return to
office Of some of the statesmen named.

THE PENALTY OF DEFEAT.

1t is evident from Lord Salisburv's ac
count of the negotiations in progress at
Constantinople that Greece is going to
suffer in Ter pride as we'll as her pocket
by reason of her failure to beat the Turk
In the recent war. She will not lose
much territory. Only so much will be
sliced Off Northern Thessaly as the Turk
will need, in the opinion of military ex.
perts, to safeguard his frontier from at.
tscks and inroads such as that BY which
the Greek jingoes began the war. But a
considerable indemnity will have to be
paid 1t is considered by the powers to
be fair that the aggressor should pay the
cost of the war to the Turk-estimated mt
from twenty to thirty million dollars.
Greece is ready enough to promise to pay
what Is demanded in order to get the
Turkish army withdrawn from Thessaly
But Germany, having in mind the serene
Indifference Of the Greeks to the payment
of interest on the existing Greek debt,
sides with Turkey in insisting that mere
promises will not do. There must be q
guarantee: and this guarantee IS to be in
the shape of control Of the Greek tart q
revenue. The Greeks will not be trusted
to collect the revenue and turn over part
of It to their creditors, but will be as
sisted in the collection and management
of it. In other words, there must be, in
Germany's view, international control in
some form to insure Greece's keeping
her engagements 10th to the Turk and to
German bondholders. This complicates
matters and defers the conclusion of the
pending negotiations.
