Free Silver.

Our friends who are "well.fiXed"
and believe i'll single gold stand
ard appear to be we'll pleased with
the results Of the late election.
Now the reasons why the money
question was ignored in many sec.
tions, and particularly in the east,
ought to be apparent to any
thoughtful student of politics.
The most sanguine free silver adj.
vocate in the country, unless he
were a great fool, could see that
in this otf-year it was bad politics
to bring his theory into promi-
nencc. There were few Democrats
who expected, or desired to see an
opposition majority in Congress.
There were none who expected an
opposition Senate, and we all
knew that the President would
not give his approval to free sill
yer legislation. There are others
of us who are content to see silver
performing the function of ex.
change at hundred cents in the
dollar, and the minis coming a
large percentage Of the seniOrage.
Our yellow metal compatriots
should not arrive at hasty conclu.
sions. We have two years yet in
which to make issues and con.
struct platforms, and in that time
even new leaders may arise,
though we have nothing to allege
against the old. 1t is only fair
to give to the opponents Of free
silver-to those who are sincere in
their belief in a single standard,
and to tnat numerous class who
are not sincere-that in 1900 theS
they will have substantially the
same issues to meet which con,
fronted them in '96, and our i'm,
preston is that they will have lost
none of their potency with the
people.

From the Pioneer Press, July 16:
SENATOR DAVIS ON THE
WAR.

Senator Davis is home from the
historic session Of congress in
which he was one of the chief
figures. He got in St. Paul just
in time to be welcomed by the
news Of Santiago.
''It is a great victory for
American arms he said. 'The
fall of the city is a splendid &C
complishment and carries forward
finely the operations planed by our
strategic board. The result amply
yindicates the judgement Of our
commanders at the front in spar
ing a conflict which must have re.
suited in great loss of life. The
city is taken and the Spanish
army is removed. One half of
Cuba has passed from the Spanish
possession beyond dispute.
''This clears the way for the
projected move upon Porto Rico
which I trust will begin at once.
It is perhaps more important in its
consequences than the siege of
Santiago. Porto Rico is a much
mole desirable possession than
Cuba, more healthful and the land
is pleasant. It includes 300
square miles, very frultfll capable
of prosperous development. l
have no doubt Porto Rico will
soon be ours.
eve are entering upon a new
era. The flag will not be lowered
from Hawaii, and the fate of the
Philippines is linked with the
destiny of the republic. This ma.
ton in the near future is to be.
come the leading factor in inter.
national politics. We cannot re-
treat to our former policy Of isola.
ton. In the domain Of the Pa.
cifc ours is henceforth the par.
amount power. and we cannot
escape the responsibility. The
future of an unborn empire of the
West, the furthest West that
borders on the East again, lies in
our hands.
II believe we shall be equal to
this responsibility. We can take
care of all the possessions we may
acquire and comfortably should
all the tremendous duties we may as
sumo. We shall find the necessary
resources of craftsmanship, the
qualities of diplomacy, the strength
Of rulershlp that is our heritage.
The futures broadens before us IN
wonderful ways We could not have
forseen. We may go to meet its
destinies,~ calm. confident, secure
in the might of the nation and the
business of its purposes.
