The majority Of persons no doubt are of
the opinion that the United States are
the greatest producers Of petroleum. I'm
which commodity they practically dom

error. The greatest producer is Russia.

A sensa tional incident in the Jester
trial. at New London. Mo, occurred a
day or two ago when Azel Gates. the
aged father OF Gilbert Gates. the victim
Of the alleged murder declared that he
did not desire the prosecution and would
like 10 have the case stopped. Jester is
upwards of 70 years old. and Mr. Gates is
older. Mr.. Gates said that both he and
the accused man were now near the close
of life. when most Of the passions. even
that which inspires revenge, are dulled or
dead. In few years it would not mat
ter to either of them one way or the other.
His son was dead, and the prosecution
and conviction of Jester could not alter
that fact; therefore, he would prefer that
the proceedings should be dropped The
sister OF the accused man, however, is
pushing the case.

CURRENT COMMENT.

The Baltimore Sun Dem) says: 1.-The
Republican platform adopted at Philadel-
phia has the following We renew our
allegiance TO the principle of the gold
standard and declare our confidence in the
wisdom Of the legislation Of the Fifty
sixth Congress by which tn, parity of oil
our money and the stability of our cur
rency upon gold basis have been secur-
ed And now we have Republican news
papers and orators declaring in effect that
this platform declaration is a false pre-
tense and that the stability of our curren-
cy upon a gold basis has not been secured;
that the currency law for which the Re-
publican party is claiming credit is a
mere declaration and Of no force or effect
unless il is upheld by an administration
favorable 10 the policy il declares In
short il is now contended with the mani
fest purpose of alarming timd souls that
the Republican party has buncoed the peo-
pie and after all the parade over the es-
adjustment Of the gold standard the gold
standard Is not really established by law.
but must depend upon the within or the in
cnnation OF the Secretary of the Treasury.
just as before the law was passed"
The Springfield OIass) Republican
Qndl says: Some one out in Nebraska
of uudsputed veracity has come forward
with the statement that Adlai Stevenson
was at the head OF an organization during
the Civn War whose purpose was 10 pre-
vent negroes from coming into the state
of Illinois This. If true, would only
show that Stevenson is quite 'up-to-date.'
only last year the Republican Governor Of
Illinois ordered his militia forces to pre-
vent the bringing OF negro laborers into
the state if they had to shoot in order TO
do so. And the people of Oregon, Re
publican state, have just voted against
the repeal OF constitutional provision
prohibiting negroes from entering the
state"
The Birmingham Age-Herald DornD
says: "rhe people have way of select
ing their own paramount issues. but
whether they select one or more as such
the selection gives Democrats no excuse
for neslecting or denying any portion of
the platform OF the party. II was made 10
stand on and swear by. It was made 10
be put into the ballot box. Less para
mountcy and more general support Of The

The total number of casualties on the
railroads of the United States last year
is stated to have been 5l7i3, of which
7.l23 were deaths. These casualties are
by far greater than the total of the
American losses in the Spanish and Phil
ippine wars, and are heavier than the
British losses from all causes in the South
African war. 1t must be borne in mind.
however, that there were nearly 929 900
persons employed on the railroads last
year-a number largely in excess of tho
lighting forces in either OF the wars mem

TIL E GOLD DEMOCRATS.

John p. Irish, the California Demo-
cratic leader, says the Gold Democrats
are going to stand solidly against Mr..
Bryan unless he does the following
things: First, publicly disavow the Chi
cago platform of 1896; second, that he
shall admit that the silver issue of that
vocacy of it involved the Justification
Of the financial views of Jefferson and
Jackson. Then he must admit that
every prophecy made by him in that
campaign regarding the disastrous Of
fects which would follow adherence to
the gold standard has failed to come
true. If he will do these things, repu-
dlate the Populst nomination given
him at Sioux Falls, terminate all rela-
lions with the Silver Republicans and
declare that the financial measures of
Mr. Cleveland's administration were
sound and Democratic, he will easily
receive the unanimous vote of the Gold
Democracy of the country.
AS Mr.. Bryan will not do these things
he will not easily receive the unanimous
vote of the Gold Democracy of the
country But there are indications that
whatever he does or doesn't do he will
receive votes from many Gold Demo-
Gratis who voted against him four years
ago.

AN ASTONISHING ,rEssAGE.

That is a very curious message to
the world" which is said to have been
sent by Wen Tung Ho, the tutor of the
I Chinese emperor Kwang Hsu, The gov
, eminent of China being virtually nom
existent, the emperor proposes that the
foreign powers shall remove his imperi-
al person from the palace in which lie
Is confined as a prisoner, declare
joint protectorate and govern the coun-
try through him. And he especially
appeals to this country and to Japan to
help him.
If this is a genuine message" it de-
serves most respectful consideration.
The plan proposed in it is perhaps
worth trying, even though it would add
much to the white mans burden. Chi
ma is indeed a distracted country, and
if the situation is what this message
says 1t is the emperor will be lucky if
he lives much longer.

white, but this season there is a sud-
den revival of black velvet ribbon laid
on in rows. When used with white lace
gowns one secures in black velvet
strappings and landings some new eff
fects. White muslins dotted with black
and trimmed with bands of white run
with bands of black velvet are pretty,
fichus of white chiffon are finished with
rows of graduated width black velvet
and worn with any of the simpler sum
mer dresses.
Very heavy linen such as is used for
covering stair cloths in the summer
makes, when carefully shrunk, stunning
summer dresses of the tailor type. These
are strapped at the seams and finished
with severity. 1t is wise to make such
a dress with the skirt clearing the
ground. Nothing Is more awkward
than stiff wash skirt held up.
