Three out of the four gold Demo-
cratic Senators-Gray, Of Delaware;
Mitchell, of Wis, and Lindsay, of KY,
voted for the Teller resolution, de-
cIaring bonds payable at the option of
the government in silver, and one
Cafferey, of La.,-against it. Murphy,
of n. Y, and Smith, Of N. j., Demo
Gratis who voted for Bryan, but who
have claimed to be aDti-silver in theil
personal views, voted for the resolution
and German, of Nd, who is in the
same boat, was paired. The explana-
tion of Senator Lindsey of why be
voted for the Teller resOlution-that it
was nothing more than declaration of
fact concerning existing law-may
doubtless also be palmed off on some
of their constituents by Smith of n. j.,
Murphy of n. Y, and Mitchell, of
Wisc., all of " hom claim to be sound
money men and all o. whom voted for
the resolution, but it is no valid excuse.
The resolution has nothing whatever to
do with any existing law. The origi-
nal, offered by Stanley Matthews, when
silver was at premium and adopted
by the House and Senate, was only a
concurrent resolution, aud never was d
law. So that excuse wont wash.

consequently it was referred to the
Ways and Means Committee, unfavo-
rably reported and defeated. 1t would
have been an easy matter to kill the
resolution without allowing it to be
voted upon, but that method of dispos-
ing it would have allowed the silver
men to claim that the r. .pai,llcans
were afraid TO give the House = chance
to vote upon it. President n L nley
also thought that the House would bet
ter defeat the resolution by a direct
vote than by any indirect method.
1t las always been the policy of the
Republican party to make every dollar
of our money as good as any other dol
lar, and 70 pay all government obliga-
tions in the best mohey. The party
stood firmly by that policy when The
greenback craze was sweeping over the
country; President McKinley'S last Re-
puulICdu pICUCCVcoOi- A4pu' DCI j. A1ni :
rison-reiterated that idea upon sew
everal occasions during his tenn, and
the st. Louis platform, upon which
President McKinly was elected, spoke
in no uncertain language on the same
subject. Therefore no one was sur
prised, although some of the silver men
pretended to be, when President Nc
Kinley raid: whatever may be the
language of the contract, the United
States will discharge all its obligations
in the currency recognized as the best
throughout the civilized world at the
times of payment" 1t would have baen
surprising had he said anything else
No living man is a stronger advocat e
of the unlimited use of both silver and
gold as money metals, provided that il
can be brought about by the consent
of sufficient number Of the nations
which control the worlds commerce to
to prevent the silver becoming de-
preciated currency, than President Nc
Kinley, but he has the same horror of
nation trying to pay its just obliga-
tions in deprecated currency, than
every honest man would have of SOL

father of the bride, at 1870 p. m. on
Wednesday, Oct. II, 1898, Mr.. Louis

A large gathering OF relatives and
friends were assembled at the Fair
mount home of the bride to witness
the marriage Of the handsome young
couple. The parlor was tastefully
decorated, and the windows darken-
ed and lamps lighted, producing the
effect of an evening wedding, and
adding greatly to the beauty OF the
bride and general surroundings. Al
ter dinner the bride and groom came
to Colfax, and crossing the river, took
the afternoon train at Lena for their
home in Mansfield. The CHRONICLE

our Solons are still wrestling over
the road law, and fioundering about
in blissful uncertainty. They have
repealed the law condemned by the
late grand jury, and attempted to
patch up another scheme, which
seems to us to be as laundering q Job
as the first. We suggest to them to
try it over for the third time at their
January meeting, and notforget that
the law already fixes how taxes are
to be collected, and it is entirely I'M
necessary for them to appoint any
body for this purpose. Also they
might give us a rest on ordinances
about that public privy, and let the
district attorney attend to foreclos.

The wheat market has been euriouslg
languid, yielding a quarter of a cent al
though Atlantic exports amount to 6055,00O
bushels for the two weeks of January,
against g. 9S6, 81 bushels last year, and Pa
eifc exports for the week have been L.
979, SIC bushels. Western receipts continue
so heavy that with the greatest accumu-
lation of wheat at Chicago ever known
there is little encouragement for specu>
lation. Receipts were 5.577,25O bushels
for two weeks, against 3,09S, 6SS bushels
last year. Corn exports continue large,
although not equal to last years, amount.
ing to 3.1366Ss bushels, against 4,143.652
bushels for the week last year, and the
price declined about q of a cent.
Spot cotton is a sixteenth lower for mid
ding uplands, mainly because of the stop
page of some mills by difficulty about
wages.
The iron furnaces in blast January
report an output of 226 COS tons weekly.
against 226,O24 tons weekly December 1.
with an increase of II, 4S1 tons in the un-
sold stocks held by furnaces. While this
shows consumption 521z per cent larger
than a year ago. there would be discour-
aging indications of consumption but for
the fact that several furnaces were stop
ped for the holidays, and these, with sev~
eraI others, have started since January /,
while the demand for finished products
does not diminish. The Pennsylvania
road has ordered 900 tons of steel rails
and new railroad in Maine 1900 tons.
and other orders for cars. railroad supply
list, plates, bars and structural material
are unusually large for the season.
The wooden manufacturers have been
buying wool largely, and for reasons not
publicly explained. It is evident that
large orders have been taken by the large
mills at prices which they find satisfac-
tory, and the rush of small mills to buy
wool has made most of the market during
the past week, although sales have de-
cIined about 40 per cent compared with
the previous week. But there is decided
~ better demand for mems wear goods
and the makers look forward to a good
season. The cotton manufacturers have
been overlooking Sby excessive production,
and find no increase in demand and no
gain in prices.
Failures for the past week have been
$40 in the United States, against 455 last
year, and 40 in Canada, against Il last
year.
