charging, the saving above mentioned
would pay of our entire national del.t

After getting the railroads paid for

to the one hundred and sixty millions

The total savings would thus be more

There has been some difference of opin-
ion as TO which branch of the Populist
party in the state of Minnesota is the one
and in view of the difficulties which now,
confront the party it is an interesting
question. Under the old election laws,
when the lines were not SO strictly drawn
there would be little chance for dispute,
but since the introduction of the Austria
liam ballot system matters are different
According to decision recently render
ed by the supreme court of the state Of
Michigan, a body of the highest legal
standing, the m1droaoers have the CALL
and may justly claim to be the only true
and undefled representatives Of the party
with the right Of the name and to name
committees and call conventions.
During the last campaign in the state of
Michigan, fusion was accomplished be-
tween the Democrats and Populsts. At
the meeting of the POpuiist state conyen-
ton, after the vote had been taken and
fusion decided upon, seven dissenters held
a meeting of their own. They repudiated
TIE idea Of fusion, and new state COM
mittee was named, which afterWard trans
acted the usual duties Of such body. The
fusiOnistS cOntended that the others had
no right to use the name and claim the or
ganization of the party and the matter
ing the supreme court.
That august body decided that the
"bolters" as they were termed, were the
real Peoples party. The court, in this de-
cision said that the Peoples party had
elected delegates to the state convention

and by indorsng the plan Of fusion, and II.

delegates go elected had exceeded the au-
thorjty originally vested in them and ac-
cording to the election law of the state tho
delegates had betrayed the party which
had sent them there, and the acts of the
seven delegates who had adhered to the
letter of ther instructions were the real

The House Republicans All Go On
Record Against TeIIer's ResoIutiou

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb 1.-The house
OF representatives yesterday buried the
Teller resolution declaring the bonds of the
United States payable in silver under an
adverse majority of fifty votes The Repub-
EcanS were solidly arrayed in oppositiOn
with two exceptions, Mr. Linney of North
Carolina, who voted with the Democrats
and Populists, and Mr.. White of North
Carolina the only colored member Of the
house who answered present. when his
name was called. The desertion from the
Democratic side were Mr.. McAleer of
Pennsylvania, and Mr.. Elliot of South
Carolina Both voted with the Republicans
against the proposition.
Speaker Reed, although if is not custom,
ary for him to vote, had his name called
and amid the cheers of his followers went
on record in opposition to the resolution
The vote was reached after five hours de-
bate under special order adopted at the
opening of the session today The limit ed
time allowed for debate and the pressure
of members for an opportunity to be hea rd
was so great that the leaders on both sides
were compelled to farm out the time hv
minutes. This detracted much from the
continuity of the discussion but it also in
a measure intensified the interest in the
galleries which were crowded all dav and
the combatants on the floor were cheered
by their respective sympathizers

of the capitol were also present to listen

Bailey, maintained that the defeat of the
resolution was another step in the direction
of the establishment of the gold standard
to which they allege the president and
Secretary Gage had irrevocably committed
the Republican party. The debate was at
times fast and heated but there was no
sensational incidents beyond the Kissing of

THE BANKERS IDEA.

(From the American Banker)
Congress may do much toward re-
moving the doubt which still rests upon
our currency system by declaring that
all our obligations shall be paid in gold.
The presnt administration was placed
IN power for the purpose of maintaining
the gold standard so long as interna-
tional bimetallism remains unattain-
able. 1t has fulfilled it's pledge to pre-
mote an international agreement to coin

Quoted for that purpose have come to
nothing. The peoples demand, there
fore, that the gold standard be main
tanned remains the supreme duty of the
hour. That being the case, all doubt
about the monetary standard should be
removed. Congress is obliged, there
fore, to adopt measure declaring
that all United States obligations shall
be payable in gold COIN AS the law
now stands it is optional whether we
pay in gold or silver. In practice, since
Secretary Sherman instituted gold re-

garded as equal in value to the best in
the world. 1t should no longer be
questionable what our policy is in this

tions of the civilized world maintain
