Tho Ratio.

In strong plea for harmony, the
New York Verdict says, that the
only wedge that will rift the New
York Democracy from the regular
organization of the party, will be
the ratio of 16 to 1. According to
the Verdict, Richard Croker does
not oppose silver coinage. On the
contrary, he is bimetallist, He
does not antagonize Bryan. On
the contrary, he admires his ability,
approves his zeal and oommends
his honesty. Croker is in favor of
the free and unlimited coinage of
both gold and silver on some basis
to be agreed upon, other than the
ratio of Is to L. In other words,
Mr.. er'sinterests are SO entire
ly identical with the single gold
standard, that he cannot be thor
oughly in sympathy with the plat
form of the Democratic party, I'M
less it modifies it's silver declara-
ton by condition that is equiva-
lent to the single gold standard.
The retreat from the ratio of Is to l
is the price at which harmony be-
tween the regular Democracy and
it's New York off shoot may be pur-
chased. While harmony is almost
a priceless pearl, can the party af-
ford to purchase it at the price
proposed2 To ooncede away the
ratio is to yield up a cardinal prin-
ciple of the democratic platform.
To change the program would be
equivalent to surrender to the
single gold standard. The ratio
having been fixed according to the
relative value of the two metals un-
der like conditions and with equal
chances under the law, to adopt any
other would work an undue advan-
tage to gold, at corresponding
loss to silver.
Admitting the differences that
exist on the matter of ratio, there
are many other important and vital
questions on which all Democrats
should be able to unite.
If the preponderance of Demo
cratic sentiment favors the ratio of
Is to l, the Democrats who do not
fully subscribe to that doctrine can
find many other planks looking to
wholesome government, on which
to stand. Because a Democrat does
not indorse the ratio of 1G to l, is
no reason why he should be Re-
publican. There are many deeper
chasms between him and the Re-
publican party, than that between
him and the Democratic party on
the question of NATURALIZATION

coal TRAFFIO.
Shipment Out of Kanawha DUR
ing Month ofApril.

Shipment Out of Kanawha Dur
ing Month of April.
The amount of coal which went
out of the Kanawha during the
month of April was more than
double the amount shipped the
previous month. In March the
shipments were 1,175,O bushels,
while in April they were 1892, 100.
a difference of 1,447,1OO. A more
comprehensive idea of the immen-
sity of this coal traffic is afforded
when it is stated that the ship
ments filled 100 barges. 1t must
bs remembered also that proper
tionate degree of towboat traffic
was involved in the taking out of
this conl.
These facts are furnished by the
monthly report of Mr.. A. M. Scott,
the resident United States engin-
Ger at Charleston. The report has
just been completed, and, as usual,
furnishes some very interesting in
formation bearing on the amount
of traffic on the Kanawha.
During the month 247 steam
bouts passed in and out of the
Kanawha. In addition to this era
the 1919 barges, referred to above,
and nineteen other craft. The
number of passengers on these
boats were 1896. Freight carried
by them was as follows:
Lumber, $4,000 feet; sawlogs,
3,416; railroad ties, 122,11O; slaves,
10000; shingles, 1000; brick, 12,-
600; salt, $50 barrels; miscellen-
aneous, 2,4OO tons.
The miscellaneous freight was
divided Approximately as follows:
Farm products, 578 tons; groceries
and paints, COB tons; dry goods,
161 tons; hardware, 5O7 tons; fur
niture, 265 tons; sundries, 287
tons
