that another effort is being made to Sc
cure pardon for Kelley and Christie.
who are serving a life term In the pen
itentiary for the murder OF officer
Glenn. OF Wheeling. In Its humble way
the Index has labored to secure such
pardon for years. That Christie is inno-

doubt. From what Is known here OF his
whereabouts he could not positively
been in Wheeling at the hour when
officer Glenn was killed. II Christie Is
innocent, then under the evidence given
on the trial. Kelley must be also. These
facts are before Governor Atkinson and
we hope he will see it as we do and let
those fellows out. They are both COM,

they should not be punished for a
crime they did not commit.

The extraordinarily attendance at the
Indianapolis monetary conference, and
the enthusiasm which prevailed, are in
sdications that the friends OF a sound
currency have not relaxed their efforts,
and that they are thoroughly alive to the
situation. The cheap money theorists
are determined not to abide by the over
whelming verdict OF the people rendered
at the polls in 1896, and have renewed
the business disturbing agitation with a
view to future campaigns.
Decisive as the victory for the financial
honor of the country was in the last
campaign, It was not complete enough
to prove guarantee of a cessation OF
the agitation by the theorists. nor to
make It possible. owing to the complex
ION Of thelsenate. for the friends of sound
money to effect the reforms in the coun-
try necessary to place our financial sys-
TEN on a firm and permanent basis.
A realization OF this fact seems to
have inspired the sound money elements
throughout theEcountry to keep their
lines we'll to the front against the at.

national credit by the allied FORCES OF
Demo-Populism. The influence and work
OF the national monetary organlza ton
in behalf OF currency reform has been

most powerful and will continue to be SO.

Pa week Of very successful meet
ings has just closed in the Presbyterian
church here. Rev. Robert S. Coffey, of

night to large congregations. 1t is safe
to say that there are few greater
preachers In this country. His depth of
thought and earnestness, of manner, to-
gether with the peculiar charm OF q
rich Scotch-Irish brogue, excites the
deepest interest of his hearers. The peo-
pie are rejoiced to know that he has de-
cided to make America his permanent
home. The Presbyterian church will be
greatly enriched by his services.
