make no order and TO plot no financial
revolution; for the mere knowledge
that, on the 4th of March following,
free silver administration was TO come
into power. would drive all gold out
Of sight instantly. These silver dollars
would constitute the actual money OF
the country. the only circulating medi-
UNI. That terrible contraction would
then. as 1t did seven years ago, precipi-
tate an awful panic and a ruinous com
mercial depression in every part of the
United States.
The man who claims that the finan-
cial issue is not involved in this cam
paign is not honest. The man who
claims that Ii does not transcend all
others in Importance undertakes the
prosperity of the nation, the honor of
its people. the sanctity Of savings and
the right of labor to full remuneration.
II is gross ignorance or gross decep-
ton TO say that. because the gold stand
ard was ratified formally by the finan
cial act of last March. therefore it can
not be disturbed without congressional
action. AS practical business matter.
It can be overthrown in day and
night, and silver recommendation with
all its frightful consequences be sub
stituted for our system and our stand
ard. We have shown how II can be
done. If Mr.. Bryan should be elected 1t
would be done. The change would ac-
complish itself

The Populists are not going to per-
NIT themselves to be thrown down in
order to have the Democratic branding
iron applied without kicking vigorous
ly; but the indications are that the kick
ing will avail little. However, all these
separate organizations are looking for
places and not worrying much about
principles. and 1t doesn't make much
difference under which name they

1t is worthy of note that among the
Democratic delegates who are most
anxious not to offend the Populsts and
Silver Republicans are several gentle
men who Immediately following the fu-
sion defeat of 1898 declared they were
disguised with the three-ring business
and proposed thereafter to make a
entangling alliances in which the De-
mocracy had lost its identity.

one DEMOCRATIC delegate was anxlou

One Democratic delegate was anxious
yesterday that his convention adopt
its platform Immediately, before
Populsts, Silver Republicans. single
takers and other eccentric people could
NEEDLE in the matter and cucumber the
document with bastard" declarations.
His associates very properly sat down
upon him. A delegate who proposes to
sit in union convention and knows
that the ticket must be compromise
between curious elements and that the
platform must be a piece OF patchwork
containing all the insane isms of the
past decade. has no business even to
suggest that the Democratic party
make a platform of it's own. Doesn't
he know that the Democracy has quit
doing business for itself?

he could but make the people believe
that II was In danger, then indeed he

that despicable hope, the Democrats OF
today do not spare to SANDER the living

campaign speeches and newspaper lit

will find the empire in sight and the
republic tottering to ruin unless re-

the beginning Of empire. II is the

A MURDERED SCOUT.

Pretoria, Aug. 27.-A scout disap- peared near Rustenburg a day or two ago. His horse was found on the veldt wounded and minus it's saddle. and 2 newly-marked grave 300 yards from a farm house was found to contain the scouts body.
 The women of the house denied all Knowledge of the murder, and said they had seen no Boers for a week. Their story was disbelieved, and the house was ordered to be burned.
 The officer entrusted with this duty was told pathetic tale of a bedridden old woman and foodless children. and was also assured that no men were in the house. A search, however, revealed the husband under the bed with his rifle and bandolier, whereupon the 'bedridden old woman" attacked the officer fiercely with an axe.
 The house was burned and the Bosr made prisoned, but he escaped during the night.

CHAMPIONSHIP GOLF.

New York, Aug. .27.-The links of the ShinnGcock Hill Golf club were gay to- day by reason of the presence of an un- usual number of fair golfers. The play CTS formed the advance guard of the championship competitors, who will begin tomorrow their first round for the highest golf honors in the United States. The tournament this year prom ises to be highly successful, though the west is not so well represented as had been hoped for. Chicago has one or two fair golfers on the ground and Gin cinnati is likewise represented, but with these exceptions the western clubs have no representatives on the field. Of course there is the present champion, Miss Ruth Underhill, and another not able player. and one who is regarded as Miss Underhilrs strongest competitor. is Miss Bessy Anthony, the western champion. The contest will begin at 9:3O o'clock tomorrow morning, the pro- gramme being medal play. round. wo- mems championship, IS holes, best 16 to qualify. The final round will be played Saturday morning.
