Democrats and assault all who question the
right of these Democrats TO vote. or course
he takes pains to say that he does not advise
anybody to start riot unless he has really
truly right to vote, but Mr.. Hill is not so inno-

he will naturally attempt to prove that he is

DPEyFUs CASES ~ NEW-YORK.

Mr. Choate did well to speak of the Dreyfus
case in his fine address at the mass-meetng OF
Thursday night For the issues involvea In that
case are the dominant local Issues IN ths pres
ent New York electoral campaign. Perhaps we
should say the ISSUE for the one is so great thaf
II includes all the rest II Is the question whether
there shall be Just Judges and independent ana
impartial courts Of law. That is, above al else,
the question of the day in France and IN New
York.
Let there be no mistake about it. y deliber-
ate purpose is afoot to repeat the Dreyfus in

THE MONEY QUESTION.

With a dishonesty so shameless that 1t is al
most unbearably udicrous the Democratic
party tries 10 dodge the silver question. Yet 1.
is doubtful II the attempt is not damaging them
more than a naked avowal of the Chicago doc
trine could. 1t hurts them little with silver
men. az a cowardly effort to cheat always hurts
with men who have real beliefs. But 1t is cost
ing the party the votes of hard-money Demo
Gratis In great number. Their contempt for
cowardce is not the less singing because the
dodge is so weak that 1t can cheat only those
who want TO be cheated With dumb platform
and candidates the party is Judged all the more
unsparingly by the men 1t puts up With Muir
ply for Senator and Van Wyck for Governor,
who both voted for free silver, and with nearly
every candidate for Congress of the same
stripe, the party cannot pretend that 1t is silent
because 1t will not approve. but in party law
cannot disavow It's last National platform.
There is nothing left OF it but the avowal of u
dishonesty SO shallow and naked that one can
didate speaks for all in his grotesque admis-
slon I'VE say nothing because to say anything
would lose votes"
That has become question. When the cam
paign began 1t seemed possible TO divert public
attention to other issues SO completely that vot-
State topics and to support free-silver Gov
ernor. Senator and congressman on the sole
ground that there had been fraud about the
canals But the vigorous work of Colonel
Roosevelt and others has compelled most voters
TO realize that the National issue Is ncompara-
bly, more important than all Others because 1t
threatens the wages Of all labor and the profits
of all business. II Is not often that men are
prepared to risk prosration Of trade, the loss of
employment and reduction OF wages because 1t
is asserted that some local peculatOr has not
been punished. They know that every such
issue cnn wait, for IN honest man as Governor
will do what can be done 10 punish fraud But
the money issue cannot wait. The mere voting
for reesilver candidates, without any waiting
for them TO do anything, will cause alarm. dis
turb business and start the country toward an
other panic with closed works and reduced
wages.
When men say that there can be no harm
done until some act can be passed they talk TO
men who know by their own bitter experience
how the mere possibility of Bryan's election
caused prOstration Ia August 1896 almost as
severe as that which followed the panic in 1893.
Ii is too early for men OF sense TO forget these
times of disaster, nor Is il possible to count upon
the ignorance Of mutitudes who learned them
how mere doubts about the currency affect all
business and the earnings OF all labor Instant
alarm checks lending and millions are boarded.
Without lending merchants are forced 10 cut
down purchases. Without lending and free pur-
chasrs manufacturers are forced to shut down.
