The First Ward caucus developed
nothing. There was too much variance

David Bennett Hill is touchy on the subject of his democracy and ayers it so much that he arouses suspicion. His famous utterance, "I am a Democrat" !" in explanation of his famous midwinter convention in New York when the over throw of Mr. Cleveland was planned has been enrolled among the sayings of prominent men. At Kansas City, on Tuesday, MT. Hill was compelled to as severate again 'I have always been consistently democratic; no man has a right to question my democracy" MT. Hills party has made so many startling and sudden changes that it is not surprising that he should remind it that he is following the old tradi- tions Mir Cleveland was attempting to foster the sound money doctrine upon it two years before his last nomination. The party had never favored sound money, a fact which MT. Hill called to its attention. On Monday MT. Hill was accused of a weakness of faith in fiat money and again he reminded his ac- cusers that he was a consistent demo- crat

 sas City which com pelled the convention to abandon its avowed and sentimental purpose of nominating MT. Bryan on the Fourth of July. It is quite evident that the delay was caused by a failure to agree upon a platform. It is possible that the sound money democrats are strong enough, with the aid of those silverites who are willing to make sacrifices to expediency. to exclude free silver in the obtrusive shape demanded by MT. Bryan and his fellow populists.
 There would be, of course, nothing to be immediately gained by a modified ton of the question. If the party can not win on the silver issue it can win on none The leaders of the party de- spaird of victory. and are counting upon the end of Bryanism and silver. They, therefore. naturally desire that the con- vention should do nothing which would have to be directly reversed in 1904.

A monument to Lafayette was un- yelled yesterday in Paris. Though he
 had been revered in LAFAYETTE'S this country for a MONUMENT. century as the friend
 of Washington, and though his services were contribu- tory to the independence of the United States. his remains have lain in an ob- scure cemetery of the French capital. In the changes which have occurred in France since the outbreak of the revo- lution in which he in the beginning took a foremost part, his name had been d. most forgotten by his countrymen. His memory has been revived largely through the efforts of American school children, who were the heaviest con- tributors to the fund with which this monument was built.
 An effort was made in this country to discourage this expression of grati- tude. It was charged that Lafayette had already been paid all that was due him; that he was not a disinter- ested ally, but mercenary soldier and an enemy of England and that he drove a hard bargain with the struggling colonies.
 The accusations are not sustained by any of the school histories out of which the children of the United States have learned history. We do not know from what bitter source this iconoclast gath cred his unwelcome information. We

IN DARKEST AFRICA.
Half Million Dollars Worth of Our
 Cheap CCttons for the Moslems.

It is pleasing to turn from the revolt can tribes. who had been bestialized by their devotion to trade gin, to the pie lures which travellers draw of the great Hausa states of the Soudan, under Mo- hammedan dominion for a century, where such a thing as a bottle of spirits is never seen. For hundred years the Mohammedans of North Africa have been pushing across the Sahara and the Soudan, bringing all the barbarous peO- pie they have met under the influence of Islam. Thus Mohammedanism has far more profoundly affected the lives of many millions of black Africans than the Christian influences, which are only just beginning ito make large headway. It can not be said that this influence of Islam is wholly salutary, though many observers, like the learned Dr. Blyden, of Liberia, regard Islam as the greatest civilizing agency yet introduced into Africa; but these Moslem proselytes have made the natives better than they found them. and have stimulated for eign trade with darkest Africa to a remarkable extent. When Stanley and other explorers began to penetrate equatorial regions they sad:
 These tribes around the lakes, who dress in long garments made of bark fiber, are beginning to discard their fiimsy native cloth, and are swathing their bodies with fold after fold of white cottons from England and Amer ica. The Arabs among them dress in these cloths and have convinced the natives of their advantage over the homemade cloth. A great future is coming for the cloth trade in inner Africa"
 The trade is growing every year. Scores of tribes in Central Africa are eager to buy "MericanI," as they call the cottons made in America, which traders now bring to their villages. About October in every year the great caravan, that crosses the Sahara from Morocco to Timbuktu. starts on its way. The caravan always numbers about 10000 camels. and a fifth of them are laden with white American and British cottons, and blue and other col ors. The greatest imports of Tripoli, which is the other great center of the caravan trade, are cotton cloths, and
 
 oases and the fertile Soudan beyond. White cottons are among the largest imports of Zanzibar, and many of them are sent inland to the natives, who never saw these manufactures till the Arabs appeared among them in their whi,e garments. England has the larg est share in this trade, but $500,000 worth of our cheap, uncolored cottons were sent into the wilds of Africa last year ,and it is the Moslem who has opened these new markets for the tex tiles of the "infidel" nations.
 But the Mohammedans have done more than to open these new markets. They have stimulated textile manufac- lures in the very heart of Africa to
