and is hereby increased from six to seven,

as validating and making in force and ef-

Not content with the above action, the
Senate weat further in honoring the heroes
of Manila. Mr.. Lodge presented, and the
Senate passed, a resolution authorizing the
President to present a sword to Dewey
and medals to officers and men under him
who were N the battle at Manila. 1t appro-
PIRATES $4,000 for the purpose.
1t has been known for some time to a few
people in the administration circles and at
the Navy Department that the orders sent
to Admiral Dewey, under which he acted
in the attack upon Manila, were remarkable
for terseness, conciseness and comprehen-
siveness. Efforts to secure the text of the
order have been unavailing UP to to-day
when the President referred in a message
sent to Congress by him relative to the
thanks to Dewey. This made it proper to be
published as part of the record under which
Congress was to proceed. The order was
model one in every respect but in one, in the
minds of naval men and strategists, more
than In the absolute hDerty 1t conferred
upon Dewey to proceed after his own fash
ion in accomplishing the task that the de-
partment had set for him. Here is the text
of the order:
Washington, April "a.
Dewey, Hong Kong, China-War has
commenced between the United States and
Spain. Proceed at once to Philippine islands.
Commence operations at once particularly
against the Spanish fleet. You must capture
vessels or destroy them. Use utmost en-
deavor LONG"
1t may be noted that this message was
sent the day before the approval by the
President

Mr.. CHANDLER'S KEYNOTE.

ObjectLesson Presented in Vast Wage
Reductions in New England.
Senator Chandler's paper, the Even
ing Monitor, of Concord, N. g., con-
tanned the following as leader under
this caption:
THE REDUCTION OF WAGES Is
CAUSED BY THE GOLD STANDARD.
Work for Silver Money. Says Senator
Chandler.
il A good New Years resolution for re-
publicans is to demand and during 1898
struggle for bimetalHsm. Every man
who works for wages should fight
against the single gold standard of
money, which is the most potent cause
of the recent reduction in wages made
in all the factories of New England. The
demonstration of silver and the con-
eequent appreciation Of gold, which
measures values, have contributed to
so reduce the prices OF commodities
that goods which would once have
brought the producer 500 now brings
him only $50. This is worldwide con-
dition where gold prices prevail, and be-
cause the manufacturers cannot get the
old prices for goods they say they can
not pay the old prices for labor. But
If it had not been for the demonetiza-
ton Of silver the wages of labor every
where In recent years would have risen
because each laborer has been able.
year by year, to create larger product
and he has therefore been entitled to
larger wages az his share Of that prod
net. This legitimate rise in wages the
adoption Of the gold standard has pre-
vented, and instead Of rise comes a
fall.
Here is the whole case In nutshell,
and it is impregnable. The unanimous
position of organized labor in America
and Europe is, therefore, against the
single gold standard and in favor of the
restoration OF silver to its old position
as standard money. II -
American labor now has protective
tariff Let all republicans fight to keep
their greenbacks in circulation and to
get rid of slavery to the gold men, who
IRE trying to drive out of use the silver
money of the wage-earners Of the
world. i. ;.
