Upon the passage of the Mckinley
bill in 1890 Democratic politicians con-
ceived the happy (Pl idea that if local
merchants all over the country would
increase the price of theirIgoods with
ont any regard to the influence Of the
tariff on those goods, it would preju-
dice votes in favor of the Democratic
Party. The advice was taken by mer-
chants who are as selfish as other men,
not more SO, and q Democratic Con-
gress was elected in 1890. The cry of
robber tariff and promise Of dollar
and quarter for wheat elected Mr..
Cleveland in 1892. The hard times be-
gan at once, though the most prosper

country ever saw was undsr the Nc
Kinley tariff. The recollection Of it
elected him President.
The politicians among the Demo-
Gratis are now attempting thesame tac-
tics, hoping for similar results. Not
withstanding all the disaster brought
upon the country during the past four
years by the policy of Democratic
Administration they would again take
the risk of panic for the sake of dis
tributing among themselves the spoils.

BlMETALLISM AND sRYANISM.
The Free SiIverites Fenr an Interna-
tionnl Agreement.

If there is anything that disturbs the
Bryan silver men more than the sight
of prosperous goldbug, it is the fear
that the republicans may be able to do
something for international bimetal-
lsm. When President Mckinley an
nounced his plan to induce the great
powers to join with us in putting silver
upon the basis of sixteen to one, not
merely here, but everywhere, the Bryan
men became wild-eyed and wrathful.
They denounced the move as a trick
quite reprehensible enough to have
come out of Wall street Later, when
the president named three radical silver
men as monetary commissioners to Eu-
rope, one of them being ex-Nice Presi-
dent Stevenson, supporter of Bryan
in the late campaign, they assured each
other with much profanity that they
were being bunkoed. The report thai
the commission had been given a sub
stantial aid from France enveloped
themfn gloom; and now, in the face of
the news that Great Britain has ex-
pressed an entire willingness to go into
a new conference, they are divided by
Earoxyisms of rath and dependency.
They feel quite Us badly as the gold
monometallists do, though, as there are
more of them they make far more noise.
What the Bryan men want is to cure
the patient with their own silver pre-
scTption and TO prevent any other sill
yer doctor, especially the one called,
from treating him even with the same
kind of remedy. They are not so anx-
ious to have the patient get well as
they are to have the credit of making
him well. The patient himself is no,
considered, except as an object lesson
in their own skill. Thus in all the COM
ments upon the favorable outlook for
silver agreement, we find the Bryan
practitioners shifting and jeering. One
might suppose that they regarded a
plan to make general instead OF To-
cal cure the veriest quackery were not
their envious natures so well known.
If all the friends of silver would turn
in and work for international bimetal-
lism it is not insupposaIble that we
might get it within the next two years.
Perhaps we may as it is. In that even
we shall hasten to express the hope that
the Bryanites will not move out Of the
country in disgust.-San Francisco

Ex-senator McEnery's reception in

unique. A democratic senator work.

1t comes from the older class of south

tractive program, including boxing
bouts, was arranged.
Among these was a contest be-

in the contest and a large crowd on
hand. The fight was hot IRON start

ceived much punching. Fifteen
rounds we're fought, but before the
end ofthat both fighters were in
an apparent state Of exhaustion.
Physicians and others made efforts
prior TO the fifteenth round to
bring the battle 10 , close. In the
