We take Il to mean that Senator Mills
has fairly quit the ranks OF the l6 TO l
brigade. One by one the leaders are
thus dropping out. The free coinage Of
silver Ia one thing and the free coinage
at the arbitrary ratio OF &c to l is quite
another.
Old man Horace Boles, OF Iowa. was
the first to find out for himself, and bold
Iv to proclaim It, that the IS 10 issue
was dead. and many others Of the free
coiners have since that time concluded
that Mr.. Boies was right. but the latest
and most distinguished acquisition Is Sem
ator Mills. OF Texas than whom no man
has been more enthusiastic in his sup
port Of free silver.
Mr.. Mills. however. has gone one step
farther and has come fairly over to the
platform OF the Gold Democrats, that
free silver for this country alone at the
ratio Of 16 to ! would mean not bimetal-
lism. as Mr. Bryan contends. but silver
monometallism. The campaign OF edu-
cation Is going on.
Mr.. Mills also let's It be known that tho

gent will drive away not the Gold Demo-

MILLS RENoUNCEs 10 70 4.

Senator Mills, Of Texas. who has been
one Of the leading free-silver men in this
country, has just given the l6 to issue
a jab in the ribs by declaring that in his
opinion 1T is not in the power OF the
United States alone by its independent
action to restore the value Of silver to
par with gold at l6 to l."
Senator Mills insists that in saying this
he has not deserted bimetallism, but that
free coinage al 10 TO i where the real ra-
ito is 80 TO is silver monometalllsm and
nothing else.
The occasion OF this interesting decia-
ration is the withdrawal OF Mr.. Mills
from the Senatorial race in Texas He
makes II the occasion also Of saying that
he had supposed thai the primaries in
Texas would be open to all Democrats
10 express their preference for all officers
to be nominated by the party, but that
the Executive Committee. in excluding
from participation in the primaries all
Democrats who refused TO support the
Chicago platform in 1896. had disfranchls-
ed large element Of the party. and that
this was done Ito dictate the nomination
OF certain others"
The effect OF this action" adds Mr..
Mills, will be that not only those pro-
scribed will be excluded. but such dis
content among other Democrats will be
produced, that but few viii attend the
primaries and these few will be adherents
OF the fayoriies intended TO DO benefited
by the exclusion"
This Is one OF the most interesting DO.

THE KENTUCKY ELECTIONS BILL

We have more than once made refer
ence in these columns TO the Goebel cleo
ton bill now pending in the Kentucky
Legislature, and we are surprised that IL
has not attracted more attention through
out the land
It is. as we have pointed out, q reyolu-
tonary measure. confessedly designed to
put the State of Kentucky in the free
silver column. whether or not II be the
wish Of the majority OF voters OF that
state that this be done. But as the
measure IS more and more understood it
is more and more attracting attention,
and we find in the Washington Post Of
Monday an editorial article which points
ont In no uncertain terms the dangerous
character Of the bill.
The Post fears that no consideration 81
honest and fair dealing. no sense OF the
obligations Of duty 20 mankind will rec
strain the free silver majority from the
enactment Of the iniquitous BILL But 10
suggests that they should at least pay
respect to the fact established 10y long
experiences that advantages gained by
fraud are but decisions. That even II
there were no power that Furnishes wrong
circumstances would suA conspire 90 eX-
act from the rogues penalties that great
ly outweigh an the seeming benefits OF
chicanery "Knavery has no larger adj
vantages Of permanent success" adds The
Post. lin political than in business or
private life" And this I'm conclusion:
The Goebol measure Is revolutionary.
10 changes the entire system of elections.
and Is intended % virtually disfranchisC
he Republicans Of the State 10 provides
for an election commission OF three MEM

eide al election contests. It's advocates
DO not pretend that IL is an honest sys-
tenn which the bill would introduce. bat
simply assert that it is celled out by the
alleged frauds of the Republicans i'm the
Eleventh Congressional District.
We have already stated the fact I'm these
columns that this election measure was
originated by the Louisville Dispatch, the
organ Of the free silver forces in Ken
lucky. and that the Dispatch not only
owns up TO the paternity of the BILL but
boasts Of its work We have also eX-
pressed our opinion Of the measure and
we concur in all that The Washington
Post has said Of 10. But 1t Is Wei 90
make this point plain, that this IS pc
cunarly the bill Of the free silver ele-
ment in Kentucky and that the whole
movement was inaugurated. and no Sc
cret made Of it, for the purpose of pre-
venting those in opposition to free coin
age from ever again registering a ma
jority in Kentucky.
1t is thus plainly demonstrated that
many Of those who are leading the free
silver forces have come to the conclusion
that any and every method that may be
used to overthrow the gold standard is
jusufable. That same revolutionary
spirit was rampant in the Chicago con-
vention and it is quite clear that it is
still IN evidence
