DEMOCRATIC
DOCTRINE is
PROMULGATED
M. ssbley Warned SILVER Democratic
OF the House That They Had
Departed From
TIE FAITH OF THE Fathers
As Promulgated by JeRerson, ITadip
son, jackson, Tyler, Polk
and buchanan.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 1-Representa-
tive Jospeh sibley, of Pennsylvania who
attained great prominence In the FartA
eighth Congress, by his earnest cham
plonship of FREQ silver, asuailed his
Democratic colleagues to-day for their
opposition to expansion, IN \ speech
that made the floor ard galleries roar.
Mr.. sibley has recanted his views on
free silver and is now generally out OF
line with his colleagues on the Demo.
cratic side. He insisted to-day that
expansion was an original Democratic
doctrine. promuigau by Jefferson and
adhered to by MRdIs.-I, jackson, Tyler
Polk and Buchanan. In eloquent Ian
guage. he pictured the destiny OF tho
United States carrying the arts Of peace
and story of the cross to the remotest
corners of the globe. Mr.. sIbley re-
celved an impressive demonstration
when he closed.
The remainder OF the debate to-day
was uninteresting. 1t touched the
questions Of mediation in the Trans.
yaal war, lynchings in the south and
the jury law in Hawaii. Not much pro-
gress was made with the Indian appro.
phiatlen bill, which was under consld-
Grafton.

NO CALL FOR NATIONAL TROOPS
has Been Made and None is Anact-
pated.

FeAbg0s
WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. 1.-No
call for federal troops has yet been re-
celved from kentucky. Moreover the
officials OF the war department see no
reason to expect an application at this
time. certainly, and probably not at all.
The official view is that the present
contest in Kentucky is purely state
matter and up to this moment, It pre-
sented no features that would warrant
the Intervention Of the United States
government =
In all likelihood. the only happening
which could induce the ordering Of
troops into the state would be an as
sauit upon United States property of
courts, or mails or Interstate CONF
merce, and even in such case 1t is posi-.
lively declared on the highest military
authority that the troops would not be
used to further any interests in the
state or to NEEDLE in its politics, or for
any other purpose thar the defense OF
the United States interests.
